Baby Wang Jiye has been taken to the study, where he is sleeping soundly with the air conditioning on.
The master bedroom window was ajar, the front door was wide open, and the living room air conditioner was running at full blast.
But the master bedroom was still unbearably stuffy.
Li Mingzhu was wearing maternity clothes, her back was soaked with sweat, and her face was flushed red.
"Honey, it's so hot. I'm never having another baby." She looked aggrieved and pitiful.
"Don't worry, I'll go buy some ice," Wang Peng said hurriedly, his eyes showing some concern.
Li Mingzhu nodded repeatedly, her voice weak and feeble.
"Ice is fine, but no fans or air conditioning." Duan Cuilu was afraid that Li Mingzhu would catch a postpartum illness.
Wang Peng turned and left home, driving to the nearest March Cold Drink Factory.
This cold drink factory mainly produces ice cream and frozen dumplings. It has a counter in Brothers Supermarket. When the sales manager saw Wang Peng arrive, he immediately took him to see the boss.
Boss Qin Liang shook hands with Wang Peng and said with a smile, "Brother Peng, what brings you here?"
"I miss you, Wind," Wang Peng said. "I've run into some trouble, so I've come to ask for your help."
"Oh? Tell me quickly, brother." Qin Liang immediately perked up.
“My wife is in her postpartum period, and this awful weather is unbearably hot. She can’t be in air conditioning,” Wang Peng sighed and shook his head.
"That's easy." Qin Liang laughed and put his arm around his shoulder. "Come on, let's go to the cold storage."
Since the products from the March Cold Drinks Factory were put on the shelves of Brothers Supermarket, sales have increased exponentially. When he saw Wang Peng, it was like seeing his own younger brother.
The two put on military overcoats and went into the cold storage.
Looking at the piles of ice emitting white mist, Wang Peng said, "Give me three large ice blocks, pack them up and load them into the truck."
"Don't be in such a hurry, brother," Qin Liang said with a smile. "Three blocks of ice will only last a day at most. Are you going to come here every day?"
"What can we do? I'll send someone to buy ice from now on." Wang Peng thought of his wife who was enduring the sweltering heat and wished he could move a cold storage room into the house.
"No need for that. I'll send you ice in a refrigerated truck until your wife finishes her postpartum confinement." Qin Liang pointed to the refrigerated truck next to him.
It was a small refrigerated truck. The driver hurriedly got out of the truck and walked over to the boss, Qin Liang.
Wang Peng's mood immediately improved, and he hurriedly said, "This is too much trouble, I can't accept this."
Qin Liang shook his head and immediately ordered the workers to bring the refrigerated truck over.
Four workers in blue uniforms carried two large freezers onto the truck as he requested, and then loaded ice onto the truck.
It seems they want to deliver the freezer to Wang Peng's house as well.
"Brother Liang, thanks." Wang Peng took out his wallet. "Just tell me how much it costs."
"It's free." Qin Liang waved his hand. "As long as you don't take my stuff off the shelves, I'll be perfectly content."
Wang Peng chuckled and patted his chest: "As long as your goods don't have any quality issues, of course I won't take them off the shelves."
The two stood chatting beside the refrigerated truck, watching the workers load ice onto it.
After the ice was packed, Qin Liang got into Wang Peng's car and personally delivered it to his door.
When the refrigerated truck arrived at the Wenxin residential area, Wang Peng directed the workers to move two large freezers into the house, leaving the family members stunned.
"Xiaopeng, what are you doing?" Duan Cuilu, the mother-in-law, looked at the workers carrying the freezer with some excitement.
"Boss Qin, give us some ice, and Mingzhu won't be hot anymore." Wang Peng touched the freezer and thanked Qin Liang again.
When the ice arrived, he immediately filled an enamel basin with it and placed it in the master bedroom.
"Wife, let's use ice every day from now on." Wang Peng looked at his wife, whose face was flushed red from the heat, and quickly helped her sit on the bed.
"My husband is so good." Li Mingzhu looked at the ice cubes emitting cold air, and her mood instantly became much lighter.
"I'll be content as long as you suffer less." He sat on the bed and reached out to touch the ice.
The couple chatted for a few more minutes when Wang Peng heard his mother-in-law calling him from outside the door, and only then did he remember that Qin Liang was still outside.
He hurriedly went out, smiling and apologizing, "Brother Liang, I'm sorry."
Qin Liang said with a smile, "Brother Peng, where's your son? Let me see him."
Wang Peng immediately took him to the study.
His son, Wang Jiye, was lying in bed, fast asleep. Looking at his son, his heart immediately calmed down.
"Wow," Qin Liang said in a low voice, "Brother, this little guy is so handsome. He'll definitely be a heartthrob when he grows up."
"Uh... Brother Liang, you flatter me." Wang Peng quickly said modestly, but the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"According to the customs of the provincial capital, this is a gift for meeting you." Qin Liang took out five hundred yuan and placed it on the table next to him.
Wang Peng didn't refuse and led him to the living room, where the two sat on the sofa and chatted.
Workers kept carrying ice blocks from the storage area, filling two large freezers to the brim.
"Brother, this should last you half a month. Call me when you're done," Qin Liang said with a smile.
"Thank you, Brother Liang." Wang Peng took out his memo and wrote down the gift money Qin Liang had given him.
"Brother Liang, if you ever need my help in the future, just let me know. I'll definitely help without hesitation," Wang Peng added.
"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony." Qin Liang was secretly delighted; all that effort he had put in was just what he had been waiting for.
Wang Peng offered him money for ice again, but Qin Liang refused again. Wang Peng could only see him downstairs and watch him get into the refrigerated truck.
Back upstairs, I opened the door to the master bedroom and was greeted by a refreshing breeze.
Looking at his wife, Li Mingzhu, her complexion had returned to normal, the sweat on her forehead had stopped, and she seemed much more energetic.
"Honey, are you feeling alright?" Wang Peng sat down beside her and gently held her hand.
"Much better, hehe." Li Mingzhu looked at her husband with happiness in her eyes.
"Xiaopeng, you're really capable." Mother-in-law Duan Cuilu gave him a thumbs up and said, "With these ice blocks, Mingzhu has suffered much less."
She reached out and touched the ice, asking, "Was that shop owner a cold storage facility?"
Wang Peng shook his head: "He is the factory manager of March Ice Cream Factory, which mainly produces ice cream and frozen dumplings."
"Oh, I see." Duan Cuilu smiled slightly and said, "I'll go to the study to keep an eye on Jiye."
After she left the bedroom, Li Mingzhu yawned and slowly lay down on the bed.
Wang Peng asked softly, "Wife, what should we feed you? Formula or breast milk?"
“Of course I’ll breastfeed my baby,” Li Mingzhu said. “Breast milk is more nutritious, and I don’t trust formula milk powder these days.”
Wang Peng immediately thought of the "Big Head" brand milk powder and nodded: "Okay."
"Honey, I won't be able to make it to Dad's wedding. You'll have to go by yourself." Li Mingzhu yawned again and closed her eyes.
The day after tomorrow is Wang Song and Hu Juan's wedding day, and Li Mingzhu, who is in postpartum confinement, definitely can't go.
Wang Peng lay down next to his wife, gently holding her hand. After a long while, he heard his wife snoring.
Just then, the door opened gently, and Li Mengjiao peeked out: "Where's the baby?"
Wang Peng pointed to the study and whispered, "He's in the study, keep your voice down."
