Chapter 61: Instructions Before Leaving Home _1
Yun Hao didn’t think so. It was different for others, they were used to doing heavy labor, but his wife was different, if it wasn’t for moving to the countryside, she would probably never have to do any farming.
If Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Fang, his two sisters-in-law, knew what Yun Hao thought, they would definitely have a few words to say about it.
“No, you’re pregnant now. It’s not like before. We’ll see if I can go back with you.”
“I’ll go back alone when the time comes, you should wait to come back during the New Year!”
In the military, it wasn’t possible to take leave whenever you wanted to.
Yun Hao fell silent. What his wife said was very reasonable, leaving him with no room to refute.
After finishing their meals, Yun Hao cleared away the dishes, then he rubbed Meng Yunhan’s belly before leaving the house.
“Colonel?” Lu Jianjun noticed that the colonel was wearing a stern face again. After his sister-in-law’s visit, the colonel rarely displayed any smiles, though only once, but still, there was one. He seemed to have improved, yet now he looks unhappy again. Something must be wrong.
Could it be that his sister-in-law is going back?
It seemed she had been on base for a month now, and he had visited her quite a few times.
It wasn’t just Lu Jianjun who noticed Yun Hao’s edginess, even Commissar Gu noticed it.
Could he be troubled about going on a mission?
As soon as he thought of his wife, Commissar Gu immediately understood.
This Xiaoyun, he cares too much for his wife, who happens to be not only beautiful but also has amazing cooking skills, and on top of all that, she’s gentle and virtuous. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚✦𝕟𝕖𝕥
Despite his reluctance, Yun Hao eventually left the house.
“Hanhan, behave well at home. The firewood is already prepared, enough for you to use. As for the water, I asked a soldier to help. He will come to fetch water for the house every day, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
Meng Yunhan really wanted to say that she truly wasn’t worried. Fetching water was not a problem for her, right?
When she was alone at home, she only used at most two buckets of water each day, which she could fetch herself.
“Ahao, I will take good care of myself at home. You should also look after yourself when you’re out.” Meng Yunhan was not worried about not being able to manage on her own, but she was concerned about his safety when he was out. There was no danger during their training in the military, but once they left the military, anything could happen, especially considering many of the missions were secret, about which she had never inquired in detail.
Yun Hao hugged Meng Yunhan tightly. Ever since he found out that Meng Yunhan was pregnant, Yun Hao dared not touch her anymore and could only hold hands and… kiss her occasionally.
“I will take care of myself.” Meng Yunhan knew this man was worried about her, but that didn’t mean he could avoid his duties just because of his concerns, right?
She hoped that they wouldn’t interfere in each other’s careers and would trust each other.
In her previous life, she did oppress him, but in this life, she still wouldn’t revolve her life around him.
She wanted to provide a comfortable future for their child, for him.
Meng Yunhan sent away the reluctant Yun Hao, starting her ensuing homebound days.
Every two days, the kitchen was filled with water.
She started to love sleeping, spending her days in utter bliss.
For the sake of her child, she would cook eggs every day, and even stew chicken to nourish her body.
She also had fruits, and never skimped on herself.
All these items were available in her space. There was no way she would skimp on her child.
Meng Yunhan spent each day reading medical books, and books for high school, preparing for the college entrance exam. She didn’t have to worry about English or Chinese, but subjects like Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and History, it had been decades since she last studied them, having already returned these to her teacher.
