"Okay, I will take good care of myself, don't worry." Jiang Yuzhu knew that Xu Lei was worried about her.
But she doesn't feel the need to be overprotective.
Just live a normal life.
Now she earns one more month's salary as much as she can, and when her baby is older, she will take a leave of absence.
"But wife, you will have to resign sooner or later." Xu Lei thought, after the child is born, his wife will have to take care of it.
You still have to give up your work.
"I'll discuss it with the political commissar and the others when the time comes. Now let's take it one step at a time." Jiang Yuzhu didn't want to worry about the future.
Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
But...Xu Lei's words reminded her, what should she do during her confinement period?
Old Mrs. Xu definitely doesn't want to use hers.
If she came here, she could have taken good care of herself after giving birth, but she was just angry.
It seems that her mother can only come over.
Xu Lei had obviously thought of that, "Wife, how about...when you're a little further along in your pregnancy, should we invite your mother-in-law over?"
Xu Lei knew very well what his mother was like.
If possible, he would like to take care of his wife by himself.
But he couldn't guarantee that he would be by his wife's side to take care of her when she needed him. They might go on missions at any time and their return date was uncertain.
It would be nice if there was someone I could trust to take care of my wife.
"Oh, don't think about it for now. It's still too early." Jiang Yuzhu saw Xu Lei frowning and knew that he was worried about the future.
The next morning, Xu Lei couldn't wait to take Jiang Yuzhu to the hospital for a check-up.
"Congratulations, this lesbian is one month pregnant."
Yesterday, they didn't hear the exact news of the pregnancy, it was all speculation. Now the hospital's test results are here, and Xu Lei and Jiang Yuzhu are very happy.
The two took the test results back home.
Xu Lei kissed Jiang Yuzhu on the forehead several times.
"I have a daughter!"
"Hey, wait a minute, how do you know it has to be a daughter?" Jiang Yuzhu looked at Xu Lei in confusion.
"I'm just kidding. Boys and girls are the same. They are both our children."
Xu Lei hugged Jiang Yuzhu and smiled brightly.
A soft and tender girl smells so good, it gives a naughty boy a headache just thinking about it.
"You can't favor girls over boys. They are our treasures." Jiang Yuzhu has no special preferences. Boys and girls are all her children.
"How could that be? I just think that if there was a smaller version of you, and we could raise her together, how happy it would be."
"A son is fine too. I'll raise him into a man of integrity when the time comes."
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
Jiang Yuzhu also found it amazing, as she had never experienced marriage and childbirth before.
Over there, she was almost 28 years old and had no plans to get married or have children. Unexpectedly, things developed so quickly here that she became pregnant not long after arriving.
"Wife, you take a rest for a while. I'll go wash the clothes and call you when the time comes." Xu Lei took off Jiang Yuzhu's shoes, put her in bed, and went out to wash clothes.
During this period, Xu Lei was the one doing the laundry.
Jiang Yuzhu also has a job. Xu Lei thinks that housework should be done by both husband and wife together, or the man should take on more chores when he is free.
Women also have to endure the pain of childbirth and pay more than men in marriage.
Men should love their wives more.
"Hey, Captain Xu, is he doing laundry again?"
"Your wife isn't home?"
When the family members of the family compound passed by Xu's house, they saw Xu Lei, a battalion commander, sitting in the yard washing clothes, and they couldn't help but tease him.
This is not the first time I've seen this.
When Xu Lei's wife did not come to the family compound, it was normal for Xu Lei to wash his own clothes, but now that his wife has moved in, it is inappropriate for Captain Xu to wash his own clothes.
Jiang Yuzhu is too lazy. How can she let a man wash clothes?
After all, Xu Lei is a battalion commander. What a mess it is for him to sit there and wash clothes with a washboard.
They will never admit it, they are just too jealous.
My man is like a big boss. He does nothing when he comes home and complains about this and that. In comparison, it's really enviable.
"My sisters-in-law are going shopping." Xu Lei changed the subject and did not mention the laundry.
There is nothing to tell outsiders about what happens between them.
"Ah, we're going to the market."
"Captain Xu, I never realized you were such an idle husband, washing clothes for your wife in the middle of the day."
Xu Lei didn't want to say more, but several family members didn't let him go and continued to tease him.
You can tell at a glance that the clothes in this basin are all for women.
"The weather is cold and the water is cold too. I'm a man and I'm not afraid of the cold. My sisters-in-law are busy, so I have to go into the house to get something." Xu Lei didn't want to continue talking about this topic with them, so he went into the house to avoid them.
When the women saw Xu Lei enter the house, they were disappointed and left.
"Jiang Yuzhu is so lucky! How could she have to deal with everything? A man like Captain Xu is so rare."
"That's right, same person, different fate!"
Several people chatted as they walked.
This time Xu Lei moved the wash basin to the backyard so no one would disturb him.
After washing and drying, I looked at the time and it was almost time.
Warm your hands before waking up your wife.
After sending his wife to the cafeteria, Xu Lei first went to find the political commissar.
"Why are you here?" The political commissar saw Xu Lei coming and thought something was wrong.
"Political Commissar, I won't beat around the bush with you. I'll be frank. My wife is pregnant. Can you please let her come to work a little later? I want her to sleep in a little longer. I don't mind a lower salary."
"Actually, I wanted Yuzhu to resign, but she didn't want to disappoint the political commissar, who had arranged such a good job for her, and she was unwilling to resign."
"This time... I came to see you without telling her."
Xu Lei felt a little distressed when he saw his wife having to get up early every day.
When we were at home, my wife would sleep until around nine o'clock.
Now I have to get up at six o'clock every day to go to work.
Summer is ok, but winter is too cold.
"You kid, you really love your wife!" The political commissar laughed.
"Is that so? Go back and tell Xiao Jiang that she doesn't have to go to work so early this morning. I specifically approved it. It's so cold today, and it's really too early in the morning for a pregnant woman."
"As long as she arranges the cafeteria work for me, I don't have to stick to the cafeteria's opening and closing hours."
The political commissar also noticed that Jiang Yuzhu had recently made the cafeteria very lively, and had added many new dishes, both in terms of staple food and side dishes.
Even the pickles have so many more varieties and they are delicious, so the political commissar is naturally satisfied.
Originally, he invited her here not to ask her to do work, but to improve the canteen and the food for the troops. Now his goal has been achieved.
"Thank you, Commissar."
"Okay, you have achieved your goal, go ahead." The political commissar did not mention the issue of salary cuts.
Don't be so rigid in doing things.
If you want the horse to run fast, you must feed it more grass.
