Pei Yuanzheng didn't say much. He pulled the bowl closer to himself and finished the rest in no time.
"Don't you mind my saliva?" Ruan Niannian asked jokingly, supporting her chin and watching him finish eating.
Pei Yuanzheng's eyes dimmed, "I ate too much, I don't feel anything, wife, go back to your room first, I'll wash this bowl."
After he finished speaking, he picked up the bowl and went back to the kitchen to wash it.
Ruan Niannian was full and walked back to her room slowly, supporting her waist.
No wonder some people say that pregnancy can help you gain weight. Those who say they gain weight during pregnancy are just trying to show off how well they ate during pregnancy, right?
As soon as she sat down on the bed, Pei Yuanzheng came in with a basin of water, "Wife, come, soak your feet and relieve your fatigue."
"Ah?" Ruan Niannian pouted, "It's too hot. I don't want to soak my feet."
Pei Yuanzheng brought the basin closer and said, "It's not hot. I filled it with warm water. The political commissar once said that warm water can relieve fatigue, while hot water will only make people more tired."
"Is that so?" Ruan Niannian then allowed Pei Yuanzheng to take off her shoes and socks, and then held her feet and soaked them in the basin.
It’s neither cold nor hot, it’s indeed warm water.
Ruan Niannian couldn't help but praise him, "The political commissar really knows a lot. How did he have so much time to teach you all these things? Didn't you train every day in the army?"
"We train every day." Pei Yuanzheng massaged her feet. "But the political commissar is responsible for the soldiers' mental health most of the time. He often chats with the soldiers, especially us captains. The political commissar takes us very seriously and often invites us to his office for tea."
"I and several other captains are the focus of the political commissar's attention. From time to time, he would pull us over to have a chat after training."
"For other people, the political commissar is concerned about the harmony of their marital relationship and whether there are any difficulties at home. For me, the political commissar is mainly concerned about finding a partner."
"After all, I was still unmarried at my age, and I had no intention of dating. At that time, even the female soldiers from the art troupe who came to perform in our area courted me, but I rejected them."
"The political commissar was anxious. He told me every day about the benefits of having a wife. He often called us together. I heard him tell others how to treat their wives well so that the relationship between husband and wife could be harmonious."
"Later, the political commissar told me that he was also talking to me. It was because I was still single at my age. He just hoped that I would pay more attention. If I found someone I liked, I would treat him/her well and not drive him/her away."
While Pei Yuanzheng was massaging Ruan Niannian's feet, he was talking about interesting things that happened in the military camp in the past. When he looked up after the massage, he saw Ruan Niannian had fallen asleep on the bed with the corner of her mouth slightly raised, obviously in a good mood before falling asleep.
Li Jinhua said that she is pregnant now, so she would be more sleepy. Even if she slept for a long time in the afternoon, it is normal for her to fall asleep early at night.
In fact, Ruan Niannian had the problem of sleepiness before. She would occasionally oversleep in the morning and be unable to get to the shop on time. They all thought that it was because she was too tired the day before and didn't think about pregnancy at all.
Now that I think about it, I was probably already pregnant at that time.
Pei Yuanzheng used a dry towel to dry Ruan Niannian's feet and put her on the bed. He then moved her to a comfortable sleeping position, then leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, "Sweet dreams, my wife."
After doing all this, Pei Yuanzheng picked up the basin and went out to pour water.
After pouring the water, he washed himself before going to bed and sleeping soundly in his arms around Ruan Niannian.
Pei Qinggang and Wu Xinghua didn't know what time they came back. Pei Yuanzheng heard the noise, but he was not interested in knowing it, so he didn't look at his watch.
As long as he doesn't wake up his wife, everything is fine.
At dawn the next day, Pei Yuanzheng went to knock on Pei Qinggang's door. Today was the first day of his shift, and he had to remind Pei Qinggang not to forget.
The door opened from the inside, Pei Qinggang poked his head out and said embarrassedly: "Yuanzheng, I have to trouble you to switch shifts with me today. I want to take Xinghua to get a marriage certificate."
Pei Yuanzheng: ...
There is definitely no problem with changing shifts, but as for getting the marriage certificate, I haven't even heard them say they are dating, so why do they want to get it?
Could it be that they couldn't help themselves and fell asleep last night?
"Okay." Pei Yuanzheng had many questions in his mind, but he didn't ask too many questions. He would know sooner or later anyway.
Also, Ruan Niannian is very bored at home right now, and there is no way she wouldn't ask the kids who went to the movies with her yesterday about such a big gossip.
Pei Yuanzheng firmly believed that he would tell him the first thing he did when he came back after finding out.
But there was one thing he had to make clear, "After getting the marriage certificate, have a good wedding banquet, make it lively, and don't treat the girl badly."
After all, she is Wu Lanhua's sister and an employee of Ruan Niannian's store. He doesn't want to cause any trouble.
"Don't worry." Pei Qinggang agreed.
Pei Yuanzheng returned to his room and saw Ruan Niannian still sleeping. He didn't have the heart to wake her up, so he tore a piece of paper from the homework book he used to teach the children to write, and wrote down on the paper the reason why he went out early today and the approximate time he would be back.
When Ruan Niannian woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. She was woken up by hunger. If she wasn't so hungry, she felt she could sleep another day.
I went out in a daze to find something to eat and saw Wu Lanhua making small clothes in the yard. They were for the baby in Ruan Niannian's belly.
Although her needlework was not as good as Zhang Xiangyun's, she could still make a few sets of clothes.
Seeing Ruan Niannian coming out, she quickly threw the half-made clothes on the bamboo chair and went to greet her, "Sister-in-law, are you awake? Are you hungry now?"
"I'm hungry." Ruan Niannian touched her stomach, "I'll brush my teeth and wash my face first."
For some reason, ever since she found out she was pregnant, she was always worried that no one was at home. If she walked out of the room and no one was around, she would get very anxious.
Like today, when Wu Lanhua sits in the yard as soon as she comes out, she feels at ease.
It has become the norm that Pei Yuanzheng and Pei Qinggang are not at home. They have their own things to do, but Ruan Niannian looked around and felt a little disappointed.
Why didn't she see Wu Xinghua? She also wanted to drink the meat porridge that Wu Xinghua cooked. It was so delicious.
It must not be that she is greedy, it must be that the baby in her belly likes it.
Wu Lanhua called Pei Hehui to help Ruan Niannian get water for her to wash, and told Ruan Niannian not to get close to the well with the cover removed. After giving the instructions, she went to get Ruan Niannian the breakfast that was warm on the stove.
After washing up and sitting at the dinner table, Ruan Niannian suddenly discovered that the porridge was meat porridge cooked by Wu Xinghua, the buns were meat and vegetable buns made by Li Jinhua, plus two small green eggs with some bluish-green eggs on the skin (they were chicken eggs, not duck eggs. Many young hens that have just started laying eggs will lay bluish-green eggs. The chickens we raised at home were like this. It is said that this kind of eggs are more nutritious than ordinary eggs, but I don’t know whether it is true or not).
She ate it with great relish.
Wu Lanhua brought in the half-finished dress and continued working on it, looking at Ruan Niannian again and again.
I couldn't help but ask her, "Sister-in-law, did you know that Brother Lang and Xinghuaer are going to get their marriage certificate today?"
