Gu Qingqing thought the kids were very cute during this time. Sometimes when she went to the beach or picked wild fruits in the mountains during the holidays, she would give them a portion.
In response to Chu Dai's words, she nodded very reservedly and agreed.
"How about tonight?"
Chu Dai laughed out loud, he bent down and kissed the little woman's forehead, then shook his head with a smile: "You can come a few times tonight, but I can't guarantee whether it will work or not."
The woman blushed and put down the crochet and shoe sole in her hand. She couldn't help but push him: "... Come over for a few more days."
The man laughed softly, thinking that his wife was really... well, how can I put it.
Quite bold.
But he likes it.
That night, after Gu Qingqing finished her meal, she took the man to the cafeteria to get some water, and even asked for more hot water.
Chu Dai glanced at the woman meaningfully, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
After returning home, Gu Qingqing took her time to get her clothes. The man stood beside the closet and watched her choose slowly. He knew that she was frightened and was afraid that he would torture her in bed.
"Haven't you decided yet?" There are only a few sets of cotton and linen pajamas, and he is still picking and choosing. He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Gu Qingqing said slowly, "The temperature has been rising at night recently. Long sleeves are hot, but short sleeves are cold. I have to think carefully about what to wear."
"Go slower, the water is getting cold." Chu Dai leaned against the door and looked at her. Finally, he said bluntly, "Just pick any one."
"Huh?" she asked puzzled.
"You have to take it off anyway." The man said slowly.
Although Gu Qingqing was a little shy, she thought it was true.
The excuse of stalling for time was no longer useful, so I just picked up a white T-shirt and got the same one for the man.
Half an hour after going to the bathroom, the man carried the person into the house, and he lay in his arms, hugging his neck, and turned off the lights when passing the door.
The room was pitch black, with only a ray of moonlight coming in through the window. The shadows of the trees outside were cast on the white wall.
Gu Qingqing was pressed under the man, with the quilt thrown aside and not covering her. There was only a pillow under her waist.
When he subconsciously reached into the small cardboard box at the bedside, the woman grabbed his thin and fair wrist and said coquettishly, "Didn't you say you wanted to have a baby? Are you changing your mind now?!"
As he spoke, there was a hint of grievance at the end of his words.
Chu Dai couldn't stand it, his Adam's apple rolled up and down. He withdrew his hand and placed it on her waist.
Although he couldn't see her expression, Chu Dai could feel her burning love.
Bending his head and kissing her eyes, the man gently coaxed her: "Qingqing, how many children do you want to give me?"
Gu Qingqing's thoughts were slow. She closed her eyes and felt the man's gentle and delicate kiss: "...One, or two, too much is fine. I don't have the energy."
Chu Dai chuckled and said slowly, "Do you want a son or a daughter?"
“All…” Gu Qingqing paused.
"All right?" The man smiled and helped her finish her words. He whispered softly in her ear, "Actually, I'm quite scared. If the first child is two boys, you won't have the energy to take care of them."
The man glanced down, was silent for a moment, and continued: "...I'm worried that they will be hungry."
Gu Qingqing was stunned for a long time after hearing his words. Only when she heard the man's low, suppressed laughter in the dark did she understand what he meant.
"Chu Dai!" She almost gritted her teeth, "Are you disliking me?"
"I dare not." Chu Dai smiled happily: "We are husband and wife, we have our own strengths and weaknesses, we complement each other, let's just cancel it out."
"Shame on you!" Gu Qingqing had already experienced how this man was completely different at home and outside. She grabbed his arm and said, "Get down."
"Hmm?" The man paused for a moment, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you want?"
"..." Gu Qingqing blushed, but luckily the lights were off so he couldn't see: "Let's change seats."
After saying this, her face became even hotter.
The man was really stunned this time. He didn't expect his woman to be so bold and dare to say... and do.
He held her waist with a little force, and the two switched positions. He put one hand behind his head and the other hand on her slender waist, and said leisurely: "Whether we have a son or not depends on you, daughter-in-law."
Because of Zhao Ze's words, he had subconsciously believed that the first child would be a boy, or two.
Gu Qingqing couldn't help but reach out and pinch his chin when she heard his shameless words, "Chu Dai, do you want to be a hands-off manager like this?"
The man had a thin and strong chin, and his short stubble was a little prickly. She moved slowly, her thoughts wandering: "Isn't it time for you to shave? How about I help you tomorrow?"
Seeing that she was absent-minded, Chu Dai was both angry and amused. He asked, "Teacher Gu, can you be more responsible for your own children?"
Gu Qingqing sensed the body temperature of the man under her, and her thoughts returned to her mind.
"I was wrong. How about we switch?"
“Puchi——” Chu Dai was really happy this time.
The moon by the sea fell into the sea again. The man stopped moving, lay on his side and looked down at her.
He held the woman in his arms. Neither of them spoke a word, nor did they want to get up and wash. They just wanted to lie there quietly and listen to each other's breathing.
Gu Qingqing stroked the knife scars and bullet marks on his body with her fingers, and her heart was particularly peaceful.
Chu Dai had a rare day off, so he could stay at home with her and he didn't have to rush to sleep, as he could make up for it during the day anyway.
Gu Qingqing suddenly spoke up, "Brother, how did you get this scar on your waist?"
Chu Dai didn't say anything for a long time. Gu Qingqing thought he was asleep. Just as she was about to reach out and pull the quilt next to him to cover him, the man spoke: "Two years ago, when we were on a mission, we were ambushed and left behind."
Hearing his heavy tone, Gu Qingqing said softly: "...was it the time when Bai Yan was with you?"
The man didn't say anything, but his hands around her waist suddenly tightened.
Gu Qingqing understood instantly.
She didn't ask any more questions, but just gently touched his back to comfort him.
That night, the two of them slept in each other's arms and fell into a deep sleep in the second half of the night.
The next day, Gu Qingqing woke up and the man next to her was looking at her with his hands on his back. His white cotton and linen pajamas were all wrinkled.
Gu Qingqing blinked, snuggled into his arms, and rubbed his neck: "It's been a long time since I saw you when I woke up."
Chu Dai smiled and kissed her temples, "Sometimes I think, if I hadn't joined the army, we could have been an ordinary couple, planting crops and vegetables, having more children, and seeing each other every day. How nice it would have been."
Gu Qingqing listened to him quietly.
"Then I changed my mind and thought, if I hadn't joined the army, I wouldn't have met you. Let alone being husband and wife, we wouldn't even have the chance to meet in person in this life."
"Cherish him, my wife." Chu Dai kissed her forehead again, "It's not easy for your man, either."
Gu Qingqing was somewhat speechless: "Why do I feel like you're saying it the other way around?"
"Hmm?" The man looked at her with a smile.
"Shouldn't you cherish me?" Gu Qingqing said unhappily, "By marrying me, you have gained so many brothers, as well as grandpa, grandma, father, mother, uncles, and aunts. Now you want me to give birth to your children."
At this point, she felt more and more wronged. "Sister Anian vomited after eating when she was pregnant, and had to force herself to eat more for fear of hurting the baby in her belly. And sister-in-law Zhou, she gave birth to three children. She told me that she used to be much slimmer than me, but after giving birth, all the flesh on her body became loose."
What scared Gu Qingqing the most, even before she could say it out loud, was the crisscrossing red marks on Xu Nian's belly.
She looked at it with horror.
The man didn't know this, and was a little bit at a loss when he saw her crying. His original calmness had long since disappeared, and he whispered to the little woman in his arms: "I was wrong, we should cherish each other. If you are afraid, we won't have children. Our Chu family has no military power to inherit. As long as you don't cry, I can do anything."
Gu Qingqing pouted, tears welling up in her eyes: "How can you sound more aggrieved than I do?"
The man sighed and patted her back gently with his big hand. "It's true. Before I met you, I was ready to die at any time. No one can predict what will happen in a war. A person who is full of life one second may be..."
He didn't want to say this in front of her. "My father has already made preparations for the Chu family to be almost the same by my generation. You shouldn't feel any psychological burden, and don't think that other sisters-in-law have given birth to so many children, so you have to give birth to one for me."
"Everything is up to you. If you want me to cooperate, I will always cooperate. If you don't want me to accept it, I don't want to let you down for anything. We agreed on this before we got married."
"I also promised my elder brother that I would treat you well. Please don't cry, okay?" The man used the killer move that Gu Qinglie taught him and coaxed her softly, "I heard that there will be braised pork in the cafeteria for lunch today."
Gu Qingqing stopped crying, buried her head in his neck, and said in a muffled voice: "Although I really want to eat braised pork, I want to have children with you more. It's not because I see other sisters-in-law are greedy, but because I want to give you a home. They call you father and me mother. I know you will treat them well, no matter if they are sons or daughters. Chu Dai, I'm serious."
The man also laughed, "Yeah, you're very serious every time you call Chu Dai."
When this person is angry, he likes to call "Chu Dai Chu Dai".
Gu Qingqing couldn't help but punch him twice, then she lay in his arms and sighed, "You said you did it so many times last night and didn't even take a shower, how could you hold me in your arms?"
The man was a little confused this time, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Last night you didn't let me hold you to wash, is that because of this?"
Gu Qingqing nodded shyly, "Sister-in-law Zhou taught me this method secretly. She gave birth to three children, so she has experience."
Chu Dai: "..." It was the first time he heard such nonsense, but he didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm.
He held the woman's waist with one hand and put the back of his other hand over his eyes. He didn't know what to say. After a moment, he asked, "Can we go wash now, wife?"
I really feel uncomfortable.
Gu Qingqing climbed out of his arms and reached for the watch on the bedside table. "What time is it now? Mrs. Zhou said it would take five or six hours."
Chu Dai: "..."
Soon, he responded, "Then I should wash first?"
