The Clever Wife of the 1960s Chapter 22 (Part 3)

Chapter 22 (Part 3)

The Aunt Chen he mentioned was the captain's wife, Chen Aidi, who told him a lot of things.

Chen Rou smiled and said, "I've eaten a lot since I got pregnant."

She did eat a lot, indeed. When he went out hunting, she would cook for herself at home, and beef was the most eaten.

When he went out hunting, she ate nearly three pounds of food.

Moreover, since she became pregnant, she has not had any morning sickness or anything like that. She has been feeling smooth and has a good appetite.

But even if she ate well, it was still a short time and her belly didn't show any signs of pregnancy.

The weather is so cold nowadays that Han Guobin stays at home tactfully, weaving bamboo products with his wife.

The couple worked until the twelfth lunar month and finally finished weaving the bamboo mat.

It will definitely be very cool to sleep in next summer.

Chen Rou didn't want to stay at home all the time even though she was pregnant, so when the bamboo mat was ready, she came out, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and chatted with Zhou Zhen and the others to pass the time.

The main thing is to ask those experienced people if there is anything I should pay attention to during pregnancy.

The captain's wife, Chen Aidi, was also there, and she said, "I told Guobin some things, but I couldn't tell him in detail. I thought I'd talk to you about it someday."

"Guobin told me when he got back." Chen Rou said with a smile.

Chen Aidi smiled and talked about a lot of things to pay attention to. The other women couldn't help but say, "We didn't care so much. When we were pregnant with our first child, we didn't even know we were pregnant. It was later that we felt unwell and worked too hard, and we almost had an accident."

"I felt the same way," said another sister-in-law.

Those who have just gotten married have no experience, so they need to be careful in the first three months. It is not uncommon for women to miscarry without realizing it because they are too tired from working in the fields.

"I gave birth to my second child last year. I was still earning work points even though my belly was eight months big. I couldn't rest even if I wanted to."

"It's Li Laosan's wife. Two years ago, her child Shidan was born in the sweet potato field!"

“…”

A group of female comrades were talking about the topic of having children.

Even though Chen Rou knew that the women of today were capable of enduring hardships, she was still frightened when she heard them talk about their experiences.

It is not easy for women in the apocalypse. It is not the apocalypse now, but life is still difficult.

The child was born in a sweet potato field.

"But you are lucky to marry a good man like Guobin. When you are pregnant, he will definitely not let you go out of bed. Don't worry." Chen Aidi comforted.

"Yes, we all see how much your man loves you." Another sister-in-law also laughed.

"You two, they all have their own men who love them, why are they embarrassing someone else's new wife?" Zhou Zhen spoke up for Chen Rou.

Chen Rou just smiled, not feeling embarrassed or taking it to heart.

She knew that her Guobin was good to her. As long as he was at home, she didn't have to wash clothes or dishes.

The yard of my house was surrounded by a fence, and people in the village passing by could see it clearly, and the news had already spread everywhere.

It is precisely because of this that her mother-in-law, Han's mother, is very dissatisfied with her, thinking that she is bullying men.

But when it comes to Han Guobin, all the female comrades present have to praise him.

Not only does he get full work points, he's also tall and strong, loves his wife, and doesn't have any philandering heart. Is there anything better than this?

Men of Han Guobin's age in the village often grumbled behind his back that he was bringing shame to men. What Han's mother said was right. Isn't this just asking his wife to take advantage of him?

Is there any man who does housework for his wife?

But they only dared to talk about it behind Han Guobin's back and didn't even have the courage to do it in front of Han Guobin.

Han Guobin never told Chen Rou, and Chen Rou herself never knew that her man was invincible in the village before he was fifteen.

After the age of fifteen, they become sensible and wise, and they stop fighting.

Of course, the fight before was provoked by others, and they stopped fighting after that because they had already become famous.

Chen Rou didn't know any of these things.

After listening to her aunts and sisters-in-law talk about their experiences, Chen Rou had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

Just don't touch anything raw or cold, and eat whatever is available. As for the rest, I don't have any good advice to give her.

Because the conditions are like this, there is really nothing to be particular about.

It was almost time, so everyone dispersed and went back to cook.

The pork ribs and carrot soup we had at home was served with boiled sweet potatoes, and tofu stewed with cabbage, which contained a few pieces of fried pork belly that had been left over from some time ago.

Most people wouldn’t put so much effort into eating, but Chen Rou wasn’t afraid of the trouble, and it wasn’t a big deal.

After it was ready, the couple sat around the kang table and ate it.

"Now we spend our days either eating or sleeping. After this winter, I will ask my wife to raise you into a pig." Han Guobin said with a smile while eating sweet potatoes with a piece of cabbage.

"Take good care of it. There will be a lot of work to do next year. I'm pregnant, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help much next year." Chen Rou said.

On the premise that there is food and money at home, Chen Rou puts her children first in everything. Next year she plans to go to collect grass for pigs and will not go to the fields anymore. She will wait until the child is born to do it again.

Because she was really afraid of overdoing it and having an accident, and she also didn't want to have a child outside.

"You don't have to go to work next year. I will go and earn work points." Han Guobin said.

It's not convenient to be pregnant. You must take good care of yourself, although he has seen many women in the village working with bulging bellies.

But that's someone else's wife, he has no say in it. If he lets his wife be so tired while pregnant, how cowardly would he be?

Chen Rou knew that he would not object, but seeing his clear attitude, she still felt warm in her heart.

"I definitely have to go. I'm going to collect grass for pigs, which is not hard work." Chen Rou said.
