After Su Nuan's pregnancy reaction appeared, it became uncontrollable. She could hardly stand the smell of any meat or fish.
Because of this, the whole family was worried. Seeing Su Nuan getting thinner and thinner, everyone felt distressed and anxious.
Aunt Mei cooks different kinds of food every day, hoping that Su Nuan can eat more.
The old man and the old lady were very anxious and asked around for any folk remedies to treat morning sickness.
Gu Chengfeng studies every day how to coax his wife to eat more.
Seeing the whole family surrounding her, Su Nuan would force herself to eat more even if she felt uncomfortable.
As the days passed, Su Nuan was tortured by pregnancy reactions for almost a month before the symptoms gradually eased. She could eat more and her body did not look so thin anymore.
After seeing Su Nuanyun's condition improve, the old man and the old lady also prepared to return to Beijing.
Given the old man's status, even though he is retired now, he cannot leave Beijing for too long. If Su Nuan's pregnancy had not been so severe, the two elders would have prepared to go back long ago.
After Su Nuan saw the old man and the old lady off, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Over the past month, with the company of the two elders, although she couldn't eat much, her mood improved a lot every day.
One day, when Su Nuan was bored at home, she received a call from Mayor Wang.
He didn't say much on the phone, just told her to go to the municipal government to attend the commendation meeting later.
When Su Nuan heard about the commendation meeting, she knew that it might be related to the rescue in Huyuan Province.
On the phone, Su Nuan rejected Mayor Wang. Her original intention of doing this was not for the reward. The reason she went to support Huyuan Province was that she felt she had the ability to help more people.
She also felt that what she was doing was what a Chinese person should do, and if she didn't have the ability, she wouldn't have taken the lead.
After hearing Su Nuan's refusal, Mayor Wang wanted to persuade her, but her attitude was firm, so he had no choice but to agree.
Chairman Xiang and several Shanghai business representatives attended the city's commendation meeting. Su Nuan was very happy when she saw the report in the newspaper.
After the commendation meeting, Mayor Wang came to the door with commendation certificates and prizes.
Su Nuan received them warmly, but when she saw the certificates and prizes that Mayor Wang took out, she smiled helplessly.
"Uncle Wang, what are you doing..."
"I know you don't want to be in the spotlight, but the people of Huyuan Province remember what you've done. This isn't a commendation from the government; this certificate is a token of gratitude from the people of Huyuan Province."
"Uncle Wang, since you said so, I won't refuse."
"That's right, I heard you are pregnant now?"
“Yeah, almost four months.”
"Your child with Comrade Gu will likely be an extraordinary person in the future, so take good care of him."
"Thank you, Uncle Wang"
"Okay, I've delivered the stuff. I'm busy with other things at the government office, so I won't stay any longer."
"Okay, Uncle Wang, I'll see you off."
Mayor Wang stopped Su Nuan from seeing him off.
"I'm not a stranger, so don't send me around. Remember to tell me when the baby is born."
"Okay, Uncle Wang, take care."
After seeing off Mayor Wang, Su Nuan looked at the commendation certificate with mixed feelings. After asking Chen Meirong to put the certificate away, she stopped paying attention to it.
In the evening, when Su Nuan was eating, the phone in the living room rang.
Chen Meirong answered the phone, said a few words and came to find Su Nuan.
"Miss, it's my uncle calling."
Su Nuan put down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up to answer the phone.
"Hello, Cheng Feng, why did you call back today?"
"Wife, I got a promotion"
"Promoted? What's going on?"
"We just held a commendation meeting this afternoon for the rescue efforts in Huyuan Province."
"So what is your current position?"
"He's still the captain of the special forces team, with the rank of lieutenant colonel and the treatment of a deputy regiment commander."
"Congratulations, Lieutenant Colonel Gu!"
"Wife, there is something else I want to tell you."
"What is it?"
"In a month, the troops will have a joint exercise. I will be training in the army during this period, so I won't be able to go home to see you on weekends."
"It's okay, just go ahead and do your thing. My morning sickness has gotten much better now. The baby and I are both fine. You don't have to worry about us. Just focus on your training in the army."
"Okay, wife, thank you for your hard work."
"How long will your joint exercise last?"
“About two to three months.”
"Okay, will you be in the army for the next month?"
"Yes, I have been training in the army for more than a month."
"Okay, if I miss you, I'll stay in the family compound for two days."
"When you come over, remember to bring Aunt Mei and Annie with you, and call me in advance."
"good"
After hanging up the phone, Su Nuan smiled and went back to continue eating.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, the others around her couldn't help but become curious.
After everyone exchanged glances, Jack couldn't help but ask directly.
"Miss, what's the good news? Why are you so happy?"
"Is it obvious that I'm happy?"
The others beside them all nodded in tacit understanding.
Su Nuan didn't keep anyone in suspense and told everyone the good news about Gu Chengfeng with a smile.
"Your son-in-law got a promotion."
After hearing this, everyone was very happy for Gu Chengfeng.
Jack said smoothly.
"Then when my uncle comes back this weekend, shall we celebrate?"
"Your uncle won't be back this weekend."
"Huh? Why?"
"The troops are about to have an exercise, and I'm too busy training to come back."
"Ah? Doesn't that mean I can't have a big meal?"
"Hahaha, it turns out you're not here to celebrate Cheng Feng, you're here for the feast."
"Hehe, the main reason is to celebrate for my son-in-law, and secondly, I want to have a big meal."
"Sister Chen, ask the shopping department to buy more ingredients this weekend. Since my son-in-law can't come back, we can celebrate for him at home and help him have a feast."
When Jack heard that there was still food to eat, he immediately became very happy.
At the weekend, Jack had the feast he had been waiting for, and everyone else was happy, except that the main character of the celebration was not there.
Overall, everyone was very satisfied.
At this time, Gu Chengfeng was leading his team members to train in the mountains. They ate snakes, insects, rats and ants, and drank rain and dew.
He had no idea that everyone in the Su family's old house was having a sumptuous dinner to celebrate for him.
