Those things are too naive. There are only a few dozen military wives gathered together, and they all have their own agendas. Tang Baozhu doesn't want to pay any attention to them.
“Brother Yi, I don’t want to hang out with them. I think it’s fine to be alone. Those military wives have nothing better to do than put on a show all day long. I don’t like it.”
Feng Yi was a little surprised to hear this. He really hadn't noticed. Every time he met those women, they were all smiling and he thought they were all very nice.
"Have you heard something about them? What is it about them that you don't like? Tell me, I'm very curious."
"That's because you're always with those big men, and you don't have any conflict of interest with those military wives. Of course they'll smile at you. Those military wives over there, those from the city and those from the countryside, don't get along at all. They look down on each other. I don't want to get together with them and chat. It's too childish."
Feng Yi thought about it carefully and realized that what his wife said seemed to be true. Every time he met those military wives, there were either several military wives from the city or several military wives from the countryside. It seemed that there were really no two military wives from the same place together.
He clicked his tongue inwardly, finding it rather amusing. However, it didn't matter that his wife didn't want to hang out with them. He didn't need her to do his "ladies' diplomacy" anyway; as long as she was happy, that was all that mattered.
“If you don’t like it, then don’t go. You get about two days off every month. If there’s a place you want to go, I can take you there, as long as you don’t get bored staying at home.”
"I don't want to go anywhere. It's raining so hard today, so once the rain stops, I plan to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms are quite delicious, and we can also dry them to eat in winter. I have plenty of things to do to pass the time, so you don't need to worry about me."
"Okay, I'll go cook first, I have to go to work later."
By lunchtime, the rain had finally subsided a bit, unlike the torrential downpour that had started, which was quite frightening.
Tang Baozhu was eating when she heard Feng Yi say, "Honey, the rain is quite heavy today. I'm not sure if other places will experience flooding. If I don't come back tonight, don't worry, I've probably gone on a rescue mission."
Upon hearing this, Tang Baozhu lost all appetite. Although he had lived a long time in his previous life, she was afraid that her appearance might cause some kind of butterfly effect, and she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
Aside from constantly reminding him to be careful, they couldn't help him with anything, but they did give him a bottle of hemostatic powder and some cold and fever pills.
By preparing in advance, we won't be scrambling around if needed. These powders and pills were prepared by Physician Zhang, and there are still many in my space. Fortunately, I don't have to worry about them being stored for too long and losing their efficacy.
Feng Yi didn't question what his wife brought out. As long as he knew she wouldn't harm him, he didn't care where she got it from.
"Don't worry, I'll keep these things with me at all times. Besides, I'm just letting you know in advance as a precaution. We don't necessarily have to go; we might not even need to."
These comforting words did have some effect; perhaps I was overthinking things.
Feng Yi noticed that although his wife's expression had improved a bit, her brows were still slightly furrowed. He knew that this matter was still on her mind, so he decided to distract her and prevent her from thinking about it.
"Honey, we've been married for over a month, almost two months now. Do you think it's possible you're already pregnant with my baby?"
Tang Baozhu thought he was talking nonsense. As long as she wasn't pregnant, his seed would be absorbed by her supernatural power as soon as it entered her body. How could she possibly have his offspring?
It's not that she doesn't want to have children, it's just that she doesn't want to have them so soon. If she has them now, she won't be able to go to university when she's seventeen or eighteen. She'll have to go to the countryside after graduating from high school, which would be so tough. She knows how hard it is to be a sent-down youth herself, so she doesn't want to have children so early.
Seeing Feng Yi's expectant look, although she felt a little reluctant, she gritted her teeth and persevered.
If possible, let's try to delay it for two years. That way, when they go to the countryside, they can stay there for one or two years less.
"I don't feel anything yet, so I guess I'm not pregnant. Besides, my period always comes on time. If it's late one month, I'll definitely notice. But we're still young, so there's no need to rush. It'll happen sooner or later anyway."
Feng Yi was just trying to distract himself, but he became noticeably excited when the topic turned to the children.
It was clear that he was eagerly anticipating the arrival of the child. He had a secret thought in his heart: after so many years of marriage to Landlord Yang without having a child, if he could get her pregnant so quickly, it would feel like he had won a victory without even realizing it.
Of course, he never thought about whether his wife could have children. Even if she couldn't, he wouldn't regret it. He had long been prepared to be single for the rest of his life, so it was nice to have the opportunity to be single for two years.
After finishing his meal, Feng Yi quickly cleared away the dishes. The rain outside was now quite heavy. As he was about to leave with his umbrella, Tang Baozhu called out to him.
He was told to be careful because the hillside was slippery, but Feng Yi didn't turn around. He just waved his hand behind him to indicate that he had heard him.
Looking at the amount of rain outside, Tang Baozhu felt that it might not stop until the evening, and at the earliest it might stop was tomorrow noon.
Sitting by the living room door, looking at the scenery outside, I felt a sense of peace. Especially when the rain dripped down the eaves, the sound of the dripping was actually quite soothing.
Spring drowsiness, autumn fatigue, summer naps, winter insomnia—it seems every season has an excuse to sleep.
Since she felt sleepy, she didn't force herself. She went straight back to her room, lay down, closed her eyes, and listened quietly to the rain outside. Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
Tang Baozhu slept soundly and refreshed. When it got dark, she came out of the bedroom, wandered around, and found that Feng Yi had not returned yet.
Feng Yi should usually be back by this time. Since he hasn't returned yet, it means that the suggestion made at noon has been confirmed. They probably went on a mission this afternoon, but they just didn't have time to inform me.
