"I wrote a letter to my hometown. My father and aunt will be happy if they know about it!"
Yan Fangming wanted to announce to the world that he was a father. He found the paper and said, "Let's call. Calling is faster."
"Don't worry, wait until the fetus is stable."
I just got pregnant with Xiang Nuan and I don’t want to let too many people know.
Yan Fangming was shocked when he heard this. "What's wrong? Is the fetus unstable?"
"No, the first three months of pregnancy are relatively fragile. We don't know whether the fetus can develop well. Look at you, you don't know anything, but you keep yelling that you want to be a father."
"There are so many things to be pregnant with? Do you have to lie down in bed now?"
Apart from knowing that women will experience morning sickness when they are pregnant, he knew nothing else. When he was a child, the women in the village, including his mother, would go to work in the fields even though they were pregnant with big bellies. The families of soldiers in the army would get big bellies in a few months and give birth in a few more months. He knew even less about these things. Now, after hearing what she said, he felt that he had thought too simply about women giving birth.
"What do you think? Being pregnant and having a baby is like sacrificing half your life. It's a lot of suffering. I'll have morning sickness, loss of appetite, and swelling of my legs and feet in the later months. I might even become ugly, and if I become ugly and fat, I'll probably get depressed. If I can't have a natural birth, I'll have to have a cut on my stomach. Do you know all this?
Raising a child is also very troublesome. They can’t stand being too cold or too hot. They are very delicate.”
He may not have understood it before, but now that he has a child, he must learn to understand it. What is the saying that men should be responsible for the outside and women should be responsible for the inside? In her opinion, men should be able to do both inside and outside.
Yan Fangming frowned and scratched his head worriedly, "It's over, wife, you've made me depressed."
These were things he had never known. Having a child was not easy.
Xiang Nuan smiled and said, "Eat first, I'll give you some training later."
She is also a novice, but there are many books about pregnancy and parenting in her space. She read a little today and can slowly "brainwash" him.
"Okay, don't cook for us anymore. Just wait for me to come back, or I can go to the cafeteria to get food. By the way, why don't you quit your job for now? Driving is so bumpy, what if our...our baby gets hurt?"
Xiang Nuan chuckled, "Not really, he's just like a grain of rice now. But today I feel like vomiting whenever I smell gasoline. I don't know how long this will last. If it doesn't get better, I really won't be able to work."
There are only four of them in the team now, and it's a busy time. If she can't work for a long time, it would be a huge delay.
"Then I'll ask for leave for you tomorrow, and you can stay at home to take care of the baby first."
Xiang Nuanyaoyao nodded, "No need for now, I'll go check the situation tomorrow."
Yan Fangming nodded and picked up several eggs for her with chopsticks. "Eat more to replenish your nutrition. I will come back at noon tomorrow and kill the hens in the yard to make soup for you."
"Forget it. I raised it with great difficulty. I need to keep it for laying eggs."
The three chickens in the yard were all raised by her since they were young, and she really can't bear to eat them.
Yan Fangming thought for a while and said, "Then I'll go find someone else to buy old hens and keep the ones we have at home."
Xiang Nuan smiled and didn't dampen his enthusiasm, "Okay, thank you, dad."
Yan Fangming grinned, "You're welcome, mother."
After that, he added, "I have to think carefully about what to name the child."
Xiang Nuan smiled and said, "Then think about it carefully. There is still more than half a year left."
The next morning, Yan Fangming got up early to make breakfast. Xiang Nuan said she wanted to drink dumpling soup, so he made hot dumpling soup with eggs and noodles, and fried some small green vegetables.
He has been learning cooking from Xiang Nuan on and off over the past six months, and ordinary home-cooked meals are no longer a problem for him.
