"Yes, Madam asked Liu Erya and Han Mei to buy a house. Madam has a very good eye."
"Okay, I understand. I'll find a chance to talk to Wang Ying about it tonight."
They used to have salaries, and after more than ten years they had saved up a thousand yuan. With the three thousand yuan in hand, Lu Yue suddenly felt like a millionaire.
Cai Peilin went back to the next room. Today was his big day, and he needed to take a shower and change his clothes.
At 5:30, Cai Peilin and Lu Yue drove away first, while Wang Xiaoshun picked up Cheng Guangxu and the others.
Zhang Shouyi finished get off work at six o'clock and went straight to the restaurant, just to show his face.
They were all true friends, and no one was late, so when Zhang Shouyi arrived at the restaurant, everyone was already there.
Xiao Li presented a gift of one thousand yuan. Zhang Shouyi simply congratulated the newlyweds, greeted everyone present, and then left immediately.
I should go home and be with my wife. She's over eight months pregnant, and it's scary to look at her. If it weren't for this wedding banquet today, Zhang Shouyi would never have come back so early. I have to make time for my wife to be with her during childbirth.
Er Ya didn't come over that night either. Although she was feeling much better now, Cheng Guangxiu was worried. It was Cai Peilin's wedding, and Cheng Guangxiu wouldn't attend anything else.
No one at the dinner table urged the newlyweds to drink; only the three elders each drank two ounces, but the atmosphere was still lively and festive.
After the meal, Cai Peilin and Wang Ying escorted Cheng Guangxu and the others back home.
It was past 10 p.m. when the newlyweds arrived home.
The two washed up using the hot water that had been sitting outside, and their wedding night officially began.
After returning home, Cheng Guangxu served Er Ya another meal.
Looking at the few bites his wife had taken and the bowl of rice she had left behind, he felt a headache coming on.
"Honey, you need to eat more. Look at other pregnant women, they all gain weight, why are you still thin?"
"I have no appetite. Was the banquet lively today?"
"It's alright. Cai Peilin's friends are just the two of us. Zeng Zhongkang hasn't been able to come back yet, and the old man and the others can't possibly go and urge him to drink, so Cai Peilin is better off than me."
"Was that someone else pressuring you to drink?"
"Hehe, yeah, I just drank too much because I was happy."
Cheng Guangxu immediately changed the subject, "Honey, I'll run you some water when we get back. Do you want to take a bath?"
Er Ya gave him a blank look. "I've already washed, you can go wash now."
When Wang Ying returned home, she found the front door open. Had Zeng Zhongkang come back?
"Wang Ying, I'm back!"
"Hehe, you're a little late. Today is Cai Peilin's big day."
“Cai Peilin?” Zeng Zhongkang led Wang Ying into the house.
"Yes, he's getting married today. He's moving just as fast as we are."
"Who is his wife? How could he have time to meet women?" Zeng Zhongkang was genuinely puzzled.
"It's Lu Jing, Hongmei's bodyguard, who was sent to the textile factory."
"Heh, that kid's quick on his feet. We couldn't see a thing before. He strikes when the time is right!"
"Of course! Zeng Zhongkang, have you eaten? I'll cook you some noodles."
"I've already eaten. I cooked some noodles when I got back. I called your office but no one answered, so I didn't wait for you."
"Zeng Zhongkang, Er Ya is pregnant."
"Er Ya? Cheng Guangxu is going to be a father?"
"Hmm. Zeng Zhongkang, we've been married for quite a while, but we still don't have children. Let's go see Doctor Sun for a checkup!"
"No matter which of us has a health problem, we need to know and listen to the doctor. I want children, lots and lots of children."
Zeng Zhongkang fell silent. He was already twenty-six, and of course he wanted to have children. But it was a little embarrassing for a man to go to the doctor because he didn't have children.
But seeing Wang Ying's longing expression, he couldn't bring himself to refuse.
"Okay, let's go take a look tomorrow."
Hearing the affirmative answer, Wang Ying smiled happily. The worst-case scenario was that Zeng Zhongkang's health wouldn't improve. But with Doctor Sun, she was certain he could help her realize her wish.
That evening, he refused Zeng Zhongkang's offer, saying, "Let's go see Doctor Sun tomorrow morning."
"Hmm!" Zeng Zhongkang was a little disappointed, but there was nothing he could do.
Cai Peilin released Lu Yue. He lay flat on the bed, panting. After calming down for a while, he turned to his side and hugged Lu Yue.
"Are you done yet?"
Cai Peilin buried his head in Lu Yue's neck and said, "Okay, I'm all better. You rest, I'll go cook."
"No, I'm up too."
The two went to the kitchen together and made simple rice porridge.
The next morning, the two ate breakfast outside and went straight to Dr. Sun's house.
"You two are up early?"
"Isn't this because I was worried you might have to go out?"
"Alright, everyone sit down. Let's start with the men."
He only spoke after taking the pulses of both of them.
"Both of you are healthy. It's just that you're not meant to have children yet. Relax and don't worry too much. It's probably because you're too anxious, Wang Ying."
However, you guys should also pay attention; try to keep your daily routine as regular as possible.
Zeng Zhongkang nodded. But reality didn't allow it.
Wang Ying breathed a sigh of relief. Since both of them were healthy, they would have a child sooner or later.
"Wang Ying, let's go check on Cheng Guangxu and Er Ya."
"Okay. Let's go to the supply station and buy some fish and meat first."
The two had just finished eating when they heard a knock on the door.
Upon opening the door, one sees Cheng Guangxu and his wife, Zeng Zhongkang and his wife, and the other two people outside – a total of four.
"You're back?"
"Yes, I got back last night and missed the wedding banquet. But congratulations anyway."
"Thank you." The six of them sat in the living room. The women were gathered together, discussing Er Ya's pregnancy.
Cheng Guangxu and the other two discussed Zeng Zhongkang's research.
"I have no choice. This group is really speechless. They're all arrogant and self-important, but when they get to the lab, they're cowards."
"Hehe, there are only two of us. This time we moved very quickly, so we have a month-long vacation."
"Cheng Guangxu. Are you showing off?"
"How could that be? Tell the truth."
"Then don't wear that smug look on your face."
Cai Peilin just stood there smiling, as always.
"Cai Peilin, you're quite capable. There wasn't a hint of anything before, how did you suddenly decide to get married?"
"My wife agreed, so of course we can get married."
"Don't get cocky. I'm faster than you," Cheng Guangxu said proudly.
"Yes, yes, you are the most capable."
Are you going to the compound again today?
Zeng Zhongkang nodded, he had to go see Zhang Hongmei no matter what.
"Let's go together then, and have dinner at a restaurant later. We can't stay too long, Hongmei's health can't hold up for much longer."
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"No. But I guarantee it will surprise you. But I won't tell you, go see for yourself!"
