174. Chapter 174 Show off



"Madam Li, is the Madam feeling better today?" As soon as Han Yu came back, he asked about Su Wenyue's condition. This had become a daily routine.

Nanny Li shook her head, her face also worried: "It's still the same. She vomits after eating. Madam is afraid that she eats too little and the baby in her belly doesn't have enough nutrition. She keeps eating after vomiting, thinking that she can always keep some nutrition for the baby in her belly. I can't bear to see Madam suffer so much."

Pregnancy is supposed to be a happy thing, but it made his wife take such a big risk. It was only after listening to the doctor's words that he realized that his wife was still young and it was inevitable that she would suffer during pregnancy, not to mention twins, which was even more risky. If he had known earlier, he should not have let his wife get pregnant so early. Compared to the child, he could not afford the risk of losing his wife. It was only more than four months now, and there were still about five months before the baby was born. If it continued like this, his wife's body would not be able to bear it. Even if the baby was born safely, his wife's body would be worn out.

Han Yu's face became increasingly gloomy, but when he entered the room, he immediately put on a gentle expression. When he saw his wife looking at him from the bed, he smiled.

"How do you feel today? Are you feeling better? Is the baby in your belly well behaved?" Although Han Yu had asked Li Ma Ma before, he would always ask Su Wenyue again.

"I feel better. Maybe the baby in my belly knows how hard its mother works, so it's behaving well. My husband, you're busy enough in the military camp every day. Don't worry about me. I have so many maids and old women taking care of me. I'm fine." Su Wenyue said with a smile. The harder it was, the less Su Wenyue liked to act like a spoiled child with Han Yu. She was afraid that Han Yu would worry and add to his burden. Han Yu was also very busy in the military camp, but he still insisted on coming back every day and was worried about her. He lost weight these days.

Han Yu had never felt that his wife was so considerate and sensible, but he felt extremely distressed. It was obvious that she was having a hard time carrying a child, but she comforted him instead for fear that he would worry. He would rather his wife complain to him like before and act like a little bitch and he would coax her. He finally did something for his wife.

"That's good. You've been so hard carrying them. If these two little guys dare to make trouble for you, I'll spank them when they come out." Han Yu took the opportunity to touch Su Wenyue's belly, and the look in his eyes became more and more complicated.

"By the way, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. I want to discuss with you about the gift giving. I have roughly prepared it, but I am not very familiar with the relationships in the military camp. I need you to check it, so as not to lose face if I give too much or too little."

Seeing that his wife was in such a state, yet still worried about the Mid-Autumn Festival gift, Han Yu didn't know whether he should admire her for being virtuous or tell her not to waste her energy on worrying about it.

"You don't have to worry about these things. Just take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly. I will arrange everything for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Besides, Nanny Li and Nanny Chen are both capable. They will get things done with just a word of instruction." Han Yu has experienced the benefits of the servants sent by his mother-in-law more than once. These servants who have been trained since childhood are not comparable to those bought temporarily from the pawnshop. They also understand the importance of a family's foundation. For someone like him who has climbed up from the bottom, he needs to work even harder.

"I know that Nanny Li and Nanny Chen are both capable, otherwise mother would not have sent them here. However, we still have to take care of the big things ourselves. There are also festival gifts for my parents. I asked Shuxiang to make two sets of new clothes for them, one for each of the children. In addition, each family will have two boxes of mooncakes, ten kilograms of pork, thirty kilograms of rice, and ten kilograms of flour. What do you think of this? Is there anything else you need to add?"

Shuxiang was the maid sent by Madam Su last time. Su Wenyue named them Shuxiang, Shuyu, Shuqin and Shulan. The four maids were not only literate, but also had their own skills and specialties. Shuxiang was best at embroidery and sewing, so the clothing making was given to her, and she was also asked to bring the little maid Qiaoxin who was bought last time.

Apart from anything else, Su Wenyue had to tell Han Yu about the holiday gifts from her hometown. The relationship with them was the most important thing to pay attention to. Originally, the holiday gifts didn't need to be so many, but Han Yu was an official now, no matter how big his position was, and they didn't live together now. Being far away from each other, there were not so many worries, so she was happy to be generous and give more things.

"Let's add two more pieces of cloth so that my brother and sister-in-law can make new clothes to wear during the holidays." Su Wenyue thought about it and added two more pieces of cloth. It would be useless to just put them in the box anyway. Cloth is not like other things. If it is kept for a long time, its color will lose its brightness.

"It's already enough. Our family is not very wealthy. My monthly salary is just that much. And the third brother's family doesn't need that much. Just give them two boxes of mooncakes. They don't know how to appreciate good things. It would be useless to give them more!"

Han Yu had a grudge against Han Lin and his wife in the first place, but he just didn't want to argue with them. Not to mention what Wang had done before, when Su Wenyue said that in her dream, Sikong Ling colluded with Wang to harm his wife, Han Yu was extremely disgusted with Wang and held a grudge against her. However, Wang was the daughter-in-law of the Han family after all, his sister-in-law, and some things were not easy to do. If he was not afraid of embarrassing his wife and being gossiped about, Han Yu didn't even want Su Wenyue to send the two boxes of mooncakes.

Seeing Han Yu like this, Su Wenyue smiled and said, "Okay, let's just send two boxes of mooncakes to the third family."

Even giving them mooncakes would be a bargain. Su Wenyue and Han Yu had the same idea. The mooncakes from their family were not cheap goods on the market, nor were they ordinary mooncakes made in ordinary families. Although they were not made by Su Wenyue herself, they were made with Su Wenyue's guidance and according to Su Wenyue's wishes. The fillings alone were very particular, with many kinds of ingredients mixed, not to mention the methods of making them one by one. Fortunately, one of the four maids sent by the Su family was proficient in cooking, and there was also Xiaoxi who had learned from Su Wenyue, otherwise they might not be able to make it.

The mooncakes were made with great care, and Su Wenyue had the mooncake box specially customized at her mother's carpenter shop. Not only are they exquisite, they also look high-end and classy. The box alone is not cheap, but since it was custom-made at her mother's shop, of course only the cost was charged. If Su Wenyue hadn't insisted, she wouldn't have to pay even the cost.

Su Wenyue thought that Han Yu had never seen it before, so she asked her servants to bring up a gift box of finished mooncakes. To be honest, this idea was learned from Concubine Li in her previous life. Now she wanted to show off in front of Han Yu and win some praise from him.
