Chapter 12: Returning Home to See Blood
The day after their wedding, Rongzhen opened her eyes to the chirping of birds.
The first thing I saw was the lush pomegranate tree outside the window, and a tall figure beside the tree saying something to the two little ones.
Last night was so crazy, but he seemed to be unaffected at all. He was still full of energy and spirit when he woke up in the morning, which made Rongzhen, who was lying in bed, very envious.
It was clearly him who put in the effort throughout the whole process, but it was she who fainted from exhaustion in the end, and now was so sore all over that she couldn't get out of bed.
Rong Zhen expressed some doubts about life, staring blankly at Qin Fengnian through the window.
Qin Fengnian had keen senses and noticed that she was awake. He patted the heads of the two sisters who were pestering him with questions and said, "Go play aside for a while. Dad will go wake up your mom. We'll have dinner later."
"Mom is a lazy bum. She sleeps until the sun is shining on her butt. Shame on you~" Chanchan poked the dimples on her face and jumped around in a funny manner.
Juanjuan smiled and Dada wanted to run to the main house, "I'm going to tell mom that you said bad things about her."
Chanchan muttered a word of "a snitch" and pulled her sister by the back of her collar, then turned around and winked at her new father.
"Dad, go quickly. I'll stop her." They are all sensible and good children. They are not the light bulbs that prevent their mother and him from developing a relationship.
Qin Fengnian smiled knowingly and warned: "Don't fight, mom will worry."
Chanchan quickly shook her head, "No, no, I'm just joking with my sister. If you don't believe me, ask her."
Juanjuan stopped struggling and responded obediently.
Only then did Qin Fengnian leave with peace of mind.
When Rongzhen came to her senses, she found that there was no one under the pomegranate tree. She could only hear the sound of two little kids playing in the yard, so she turned over and sat up, wanting to get up.
Suddenly, a warm hand touched her back, and the touch was so familiar that it made her tremble.
Rongzhen's face flushed and she felt feverish. She subconsciously tried to pull up the quilt, but failed.
"Do you need my help?" Qin Fengnian asked as he came up from behind, his hot breath lingering in her ears.
The two of them hugged each other from front to back, rubbing their ears together, and the atmosphere was very dangerous.
Rongzhen knew what he was going to do, slapped his hand away, and glared at him: "No, I can put it on myself. I have to go back home today. I warn you, don't try to do anything stupid."
Qin Fengnian had to regretfully give up his idea and stayed at the head of the bed to help her pass the clothes.
A moment later, Rongzhen put on a red dress and tied her hair into a high ponytail with a red handkerchief. Her hair was naturally curly because she often braided it, which made her look refreshing and fashionable, and it made her eyebrows and eyes look charming, giving her a unique charm of being young and elegant.
The more Qin Fengnian looked at her, the more moved he became. He couldn't help but move forward and kiss her on the face several times.
Actually, I wanted to kiss him, but Rongzhen turned her head away and said that she hadn't washed yet. Doesn't he mind the smell?
Qin Fengnian turned his face and kissed the corner of her mouth with a satisfied smile on his face, "Don't mind, it smells good."
"But I hate it. Go away, go away. I want to wash my face and brush my teeth." Rong Zhen reluctantly pushed away the big guy who was chasing her away, and went out to see Chanchan and Juanjuan wearing new clothes. Their little hands and faces were cleaned up, and even their hair was tied in an unusual style.
With each braid pointing upwards, you can tell at a glance who made them.
When Chanchan and Juanjuan saw their mother appear, they rushed over and threw themselves on her legs. "Mom, mom, you're up. Look at the new braids Daddy gave us. Don't they look good?"
Rongzhen said it looked good against her conscience, and the two sisters immediately smiled with joy.
Qin Fengnian, who was secretly glanced at, touched his ear.
Well, it’s just because I lack experience. I will definitely improve my skills if I practice more in the future.
Qin Fengnian got up early in the morning to make breakfast. He had the habit of exercising in the morning, so cooking was a piece of cake for him and Rong Zhen didn't have to worry about it at all.
He is not very good at braiding pigtails, but he cooks very well.
The mung bean porridge was thick and mushy, and smelled delicious; the soft white steamed buns were left over from yesterday, and they were still mouth-watering after being steamed again; the side dish for the porridge and steamed buns was pickled vegetables and shredded pork stir-fried in lard, the pickles and meat were cut into thin pieces, each strand clearly visible, and the aroma was fragrant.
Rong Zhen walked over to the table and took a look. She gave Qin Fengnian a thumbs-up and praised him generously: "Not bad, not bad. Comrade Fengnian's cooking skills are promising. You should keep up the good work in the future."
Qin Fengnian raised his head slightly, standing tall like a pine tree: "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about breakfast from now on."
Rongzhen clapped her hands and took over the responsibility of making dinner.
If a couple shares the housework together, their lives will get better and better and conflicts will be less likely to arise.
She kept in mind all the ways of getting along between husband and wife that Wang Fengxian taught her personally.
"Mom, this is for you." After sitting down, Juanjuan suddenly stuffed a white steamed bun into Rongzhen's mouth.
Chanchan was not willing to be left behind, so she followed suit and stuffed one into Qin Fengnian's mouth. "Dad, you eat one too. The steamed buns are delicious."
No, this is made of pure white flour, and some extra sugar is added when the dough is kneaded and fermented. You can tell how it tastes just by looking at the way the guests devoured it yesterday.
Fortunately, we prepared a lot in advance. All the dishes were eaten up yesterday, leaving only a few steamed buns, which were just enough for them as breakfast.
"It's delicious, you guys should try some too." Qin Fengnian broke open a big steamed bun and gave it to the two sisters, then gave each of them a piece of pickled vegetables and shredded pork with chopsticks.
Rongzhen watched them interacting with a smile, not wanting to break the warm scene before her.
But since Qin Fengnian had set an example with his actions, she had to live up to his sincerity, so she took the opportunity to say, "We're married now, and the family atmosphere is just right. When will Chanchan and Juanjuan's brothers arrive?"
The two little ones immediately raised their pigtails when they heard this, "Yeah, where's my brother?"
Didn’t they say that a new father would send the two brothers away? Why aren’t they there? Could he be lying?
Qin Fengnian drank a mouthful of mung bean porridge and smiled: "Don't worry, the people are already on the way and will arrive in two days."
The west wing was also cleaned up while preparing the room for the two sisters. All the things were put in place, waiting for the two to be sent over and move in directly.
Rongzhen thought of her second task and reminded them to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to change their household registration books after they arrived, and then transfer all four children to the bureau. Then they would be a legitimate family of six.
Qin Fengnian shook her hand, and his heart was filled with warmth as he thought of that lively and joyful scene.
After being alone for many years, he finally has a home again.
After dinner, the red sun had just risen in the sky and it was still early.
Taking advantage of the free time before work, the couple simply cleaned up the kitchen, and Qin Fengnian rode his bike to take the three of them, mother and daughter, to the family compound.
Wang Fengxian waited at home for a long time. Whenever a car bell rang outside, she would run out to take a look.
After being disappointed many times, Zhang's father advised her: "It's still early, why are you in such a hurry? Just sit down and wait."
However, Wang Fengxian could not sit still. She stopped running back and forth and directed her eldest son to watch outside the gate of the courtyard. If he saw anyone coming back, he would immediately shout.
Brother Zhang had no choice but to run outside the gate to look out for his sister, while Sister Zhang went to heat up the slightly cold food.
They didn't have to wait long before Rong Zhen and his three family members arrived bathed in the morning light.
When the neighbors saw them, they all shouted hello, "Hey, here comes the young couple, congratulations on your wedding."
"Thank you. Come and have some wedding candy." Rongzhen handed the gift to her eldest brother and took out handfuls of wedding candy from her shoulder bag and distributed them to the people who came to congratulate her.
Everyone still remembers the excitement of yesterday's wedding send-off, especially the children, both adults and children who were greedy for candy, who surrounded Rongzhen and the others in no time.
Rongzhen simply gave the task of distributing candies to Chanchan and Juanjuan, and she and Qin Fengnian got away with a smile.
Wang Fengxian hurried out when she heard the noise, grabbed her daughter's hand and looked her up and down, her concern evident in words.
Rongzhen felt a warm feeling in her heart and turned around to show her, "Look, Mom, I'm fine. Fengnian made today's breakfast."
"Okay, you can't be lazy, okay?" Wang Fengxian breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, and gently patted her daughter's palm and gave her earnest instructions.
Of course Rong Zhen agreed and told Wang Fengxian that they were going to share breakfast and dinner, which she strongly agreed with.
Zhang's father, overhearing this, nodded approvingly at his new son-in-law and praised him, "Xiao Qin is indeed a man who studied abroad. He's quite ideologically conscious. If you have the chance, you can learn how to make Dongpo pork from me. Yuzhen and the two children love it."
Qin Fengnian responded loudly without any sign of reluctance.
Wang Fengxian was even more satisfied and enthusiastically invited everyone to dinner. Even though she knew they had already eaten at home, she still served them delicious food.
Qin Fengnian called back Chanchan and Juanjuan, and sat down with Rongzhen to express their gratitude to their parents, brother and sister-in-law, so they ate a few more bites.
Fortunately, the breakfast here is varied but not large in quantity, with soups making up a large portion.
Rongzhen said she was full, and then her body very honestly drank a bowl of porridge, ate a few pan-fried dumplings, and gnawed on a plate of cut fruit, until her stomach could no longer hold any more and her bladder protested.
There is a kind of hunger that makes your mother think you are hungry, and she will stuff everything she can eat into your mouth.
Seeing that Wang Fengxian was about to serve her porridge, Rong Zhen quickly shook her head to refuse, took out a few pieces of toilet paper and went out to drain the water.
When she came back a moment later, Wang Fengxian easily noticed that there was something wrong with her expression, so she quietly pulled her aside and asked what was wrong.
Rongzhen glanced at Qin Fengnian, who was chatting happily with his father-in-law at the dinner table, and whispered to Wang Fengxian, "Mom, I'm bleeding there again. It doesn't hurt or itch. I don't know what's going on."
Wang Fengxian was stunned, and her joy faded. "So, did everything go well for you last night?"
Rongzhen thought of the extremely harmonious couple's life last night, and said with shame that it went smoothly, except for a slight pain at the beginning, like an ant sting.
She didn't pay attention to it at the time, but when she went to the toilet just now, she found blood on the toilet paper again. But she didn't feel much, so she probably wasn't injured during the process.
Remembering that Wang Fengxian had revealed earlier that this body had irregular menstruation, Rongzhen came to talk to her and asked if she should see an old Chinese doctor again to see if there was anything wrong.
After hearing this, Wang Fengxian looked solemn and whispered that he would ask for leave to take her to the hospital.
Because of their marriage, Rong Zhen and Qin Fengnian have three days of wedding leave and do not have to go to work today. However, Wang Fengxian cannot do so. She needs to take leave to have free time.
This task was given to Zhang's father.
When Qin Fengnian heard that they were going to the hospital, he immediately wanted to accompany them, and his worried look fell on Rongzhen.
Rongzhen said embarrassedly, "We need to see the gynecologist. They're all lesbians there, so it's not convenient for you to go."
After politely declining, he was given a job and asked to take his three children to school.
Chanchan and Juanjuan were overjoyed when they heard this and planned to show their new father to their classmates so that they would have a father to support them in the future.
Maomao admired his new uncle and was very happy.
Seeing the children so happy, Qin Fengnian couldn't bear to refuse. However, he was worried about Rong Zhen's health. Before leaving, he asked her again and again: "Did I hurt you again by being too rough? Do you really not need me to accompany you?"
Fortunately, he asked in a low voice behind others' backs, otherwise he would have been hit by a few hammers.
