Chapter 284: Nagging at the Cub
"What about his family? Did something happen? When I first came to the army, I heard a little bit about it. He was our platoon leader at that time. I heard that he often called home. At first, everyone thought he was homesick. Later, we heard from Gu Jinghe that his grandmother was the only one left at home. Then everyone realized that he was worried about her. Later, it was his grandmother who called him and asked him to go home and get married. Then, his rank was high enough to apply for family members to accompany the army, but only his wife came, and everyone thought he would bring his grandmother with him. For so many years, we haven't seen his grandmother. We just saw him sending things back to his hometown from time to time."
After hearing what Huo Haocheng said, and combining it with what Wang Xia said, Ruanruan felt that the old lady didn't want to leave her home at that time. Even if her grandson had a promising future, she was old and didn't know when he would be gone. When people get old, they always want to return to their roots, so they were not wrong.
"Sister Xia was not at home before. As soon as you left, she came back with her child, carrying a lot of things. Then she said to me... You said, they were all raised by the same parents, so why would his uncle be like this? You didn't take care of the child when he was young, but now that he has grown up and become successful, you come here to take advantage of him. You really give them face."
He spoke excitedly, and the person who was originally leaning in Huo Haocheng's arms immediately stood up and faced him, gesturing in front of him from time to time.
The Huo family, under the education of Mr. and Mrs. Huo, no matter the three brothers Huo Songbai or the eight brothers and sisters Huo Haocheng, the relationship between relatives is always closely connected. They are each other's backers. Sometimes there are conflicts between brothers, but there is no overnight hatred between brothers. If there is hatred, it is also avenged on the spot. There is nothing that cannot be solved by fighting. For example, Huo Haocheng, who has been powerful since childhood, can fight in a group if he can't beat him alone. Brothers come together, are you afraid that you can't beat him? Anyway, when children fight, adults will not intervene on either side. You want to fight by yourself, and the victory or defeat depends on your own actions. You can't cry if you are beaten, and you can laugh casually if you win.
Seeing that his wife was getting more and more excited, Huo Haocheng was really afraid that if he didn't say anything, she would mistake him for a member of that family and slap him in the face.
"Okay, okay, wife, wife, let's not get excited yet. Think about the fact that you are still pregnant. As you said, we should keep our mood happy now. Relax, relax."
He just held her soft hands with both hands and comforted her softly. It was not because he was afraid that she would hit him, but mainly because he was worried that she would be too excited and it would be bad for her health.
"Oh, that's enough. I'm not excited. I just said it a little excitedly. Don't worry, I'm very calm in my heart."
Seeing him like this, Ruanruan pulled her hand back from his and patted his shoulder as she spoke, asking him to relax first.
"That's fine, as long as you're not too excited. It's getting late, so let's go to bed."
Now he really didn't dare to chat with her any more, what if they talked about a topic that made her excited again, and she would still be asleep. Before he went out on a mission, he knew her time at night, and he picked up the watch on the bedside table and looked at it. It was half an hour past her usual time. When she came in just now, she was still sleepy, but now she didn't feel sleepy at all.
"Alright, go to sleep."
Ruanruan also knew that although she said that she was calm just now, she knew that she was still a little excited, otherwise she would not have been able to get out of Huo Haocheng's arms.
She lay back on the bed, leaning against Huo Haocheng, with her hands on her belly, feeling her belly growing bigger day by day. Then she remembered that there was something she hadn't told him yet.
"Huo Haocheng, there's something I forgot to tell you."
"Hmm? What's the matter, wife? Tell me." When Huo Haocheng heard her say that there was something she forgot to tell him, his worry, which had just been put to rest, became anxious again. Could it be another piece of gossip about someone's family?
"Hey, let me tell you, we have two cubs." She then pulled Huo Haocheng's hand over and placed it on her belly. "Do you feel it?"
"What, what, what do you feel?" Ruanruan said, they had two cubs, and his hand could clearly feel her bulging belly.
"Wife, are you saying that there are two babies in your belly?"
Her wife's belly could hardly hold just one baby, let alone two.
"Wife, is it harmful to your body to have two babies? Will it, will it..." He wanted to ask if it would burst her belly, but he didn't dare.
"Don't worry, I'm in good health and will be fine. Let's see when, find a time, and we still have to go to the hospital for a check-up."
She knew he was worried about her, but now that she was pregnant, it would be just right to have two babies at once. Originally, she wanted to give him two children, but now she could do it all at once. She could raise two at once, and the trouble and pain would only be once. Moreover, she had calculated that their due date was in winter, January, which was just right for confinement. Otherwise, in the hot summer, if she couldn't take a bath or wash her hair for a month, she would definitely get sick. Winter was just right, she didn't have to go out and she wouldn't sweat.
"Then we'll go tomorrow." Upon hearing that they had to go to the hospital for a check-up, Huo Haocheng immediately became restless and said that he happened to have a day off tomorrow and could go for the check-up.
"Have you forgotten that you have an appointment with them to go hunting tomorrow? You don't care about spending a whole day like this. Be good and go to sleep. We have to get up early to go hunting tomorrow."
After she finished talking about the matter, she felt sleepy. After yawning twice, she fell asleep hugging Huo Haocheng.
Now it was Huo Haocheng's turn who couldn't sleep. Just now he told her not to get excited, but now she was in her dream and told him not to worry.
That night, Huo Haocheng kept dreaming. Sometimes he dreamed of two cute babies calling him, and sometimes he dreamed that his soft belly exploded because it couldn't bear it. Then he saw two babies jumping out of his wife's belly. He was scared to death. When he woke up in the middle of the night, he saw his wife lying quietly beside him.
He placed his hand on her belly and said softly, "You must be good, don't bully your mother, don't be naughty. When you come out, Daddy will buy you delicious food. This is a deal. If you don't object, Daddy will take it as your consent. If you don't listen in the future and bully your mother naughtily in the belly, then Daddy will spank you..."
After muttering, Huo Haocheng fell asleep contentedly and slept until dawn.
