492 Becoming a Parent for the First Time
As two first-time parents, they didn't understand many things.
Although he didn't know if Su Cai'er had any taboos, Zhao Ce didn't want her to go hungry.
So I let her eat the most conservative food.
Some stewed cabbage and meat, plus the soup Aunt Chen asked someone to cook before going out.
She couldn't touch the chili sauce for the time being, so Su Caier looked at her husband helplessly.
Zhao Ce said: "No, let's wait until Aunt Chen comes back."
Zhao Ce himself had never been a father and had no idea about his wife's pregnancy.
His little girl is still young, and the medical level here is not very good, but there can't be any mistakes.
In short, in Zhao Ce's eyes, Su Cai'er today is just a fragile porcelain doll.
Su Cai'er could only say obediently: "Okay..."
After the two of them finished eating and rested in the room for a while, Aunt Chen came back covered in dust.
When she arrived in the room, she first congratulated Zhao Ce and the two, and then handed Zhao Ce the notes given by the doctor.
After Zhao Ce took it, he and Su Caier looked at it carefully before starting to ask Aunt Chen.
"These taboos cannot be touched at all?"
Aunt Chen smiled and said: "It's not that you can't touch them all, I just try to eat as little as possible."
"The doctor said that my wife is in good health, so I don't need to worry too much."
Zhao Ce nodded and asked some other questions, finally having some idea in his mind.
Zhao Ce felt a little funny when he thought of how silly he looked just now.
However, as a man in two lifetimes, it was my first time to be a father. It was normal for me to be a little overwhelmed when I heard the news.
After Aunt Chen finished speaking, Zhao Ce remembered that Aunt Chen had been busy since she got off the carriage and hadn't eaten anything yet!
Zhao Ce quickly said: "Aunt Chen, go down and have something to eat first. I will ask you about my wife's affairs later."
Aunt Chen said cheerfully: "When I heard that my wife was pregnant, I was so happy that I didn't even know I was hungry."
"It's not convenient to take a bath now. I'll ask someone to fetch some hot water. Sir, you can just wipe your feet and wash your feet."
It's only mid-afternoon now, and it's already dark outside.
The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the hem of Aunt Chen's clothes got quite wet.
Zhao Ce nodded and asked her to go down quickly to change clothes and have a meal.
After Aunt Chen left, someone soon brought a basin and a bucket of hot water.
Use the hot water in the basin to wipe your body, and the bucket to wash your feet.
Because he needed to take off his clothes, Zhao Ce closed all the windows that were open for ventilation.
He helped the blushing Su Caier wipe her body, and then asked her to sit on the bed, while he sat opposite with a stool, and the two of them washed and soaked their feet together.
"Is it cold?"
Su Cai'er was wearing an undershirt and a cotton-padded jacket.
The lower legs were bare and exposed above the barrel.
Su Cai'er shook her head and said, "It's not cold."
Then, she wrinkled her little nose and said, "It's just that the smell of charcoal is a bit strong."
The quality of the charcoal in this inn is not very good, it is similar to the one Zhao Ce bought in his own city before.
With the windows closed, a smell soon filled the room.
Although this ancient house is not very tight, and the gaps between doors and windows are not too small, the smell inside the house is still quite strong.
Moreover, a puff of black smoke floated over the charcoal basin from time to time, which made the smell in the room even stronger.
When buying charcoal last year, Su Cai'er was coughing from time to time because of turning over the charcoal.
Zhao Ce thought for a while and said, "No need to soak. Let me dry your feet and get on the bed and cover yourself with a quilt. I'll open the window."
Su Cai'er said yes, and Zhao Ce lifted her feet up and wiped them dry with a cloth.
Su Cai'er obediently retreated into the bed, covered her upper body and thighs with a quilt, and put her feet that were not completely dry outside the quilt.
"Husband, I'm fine."
Zhao Ce said "Yeah", wiped his feet, put on his slippers and opened the window a little.
After waiting for someone to collect the water and give Su Cai'er the anti-fetal medicine to drink.
Zhao Ce directly ordered: "Go and ask tomorrow where there is better charcoal, and buy more."
"By the way, has the greeting card from the Liu family been delivered?"
The person at the front said: "It was delivered two days ago. They said that if the master and his wife arrive, they will send someone from home to help."
"I'll just go to Liu's house tomorrow and tell him."
Zhao Ce agreed and asked him to do it directly tomorrow.
Now that Su Cai'er has a child, it is no longer suitable for them to stay in the inn.
Otherwise it will be inconvenient to even take a shower.
Zhao Ce also wants to give his wife and children a better environment, so he has to ask about the house tomorrow.
Let’s settle down in Beizhili first, and then think about studying and other things.
After the explanation was completed, the sound of the clock was heard outside.
Zhao Ce closed the door and returned to bed.
Su Cai'er snuggled into his arms and shouted happily: "Husband, I'll keep you warm!"
After saying that, he moved his warm feet under the quilt to Zhao Ce's feet.
Zhao Ce smiled and lifted her up and said, "It's okay, I'm not cold."
"Does the room still smell very strong now?"
Su Cai'er said: "There are still some, but there is nothing we can do about it."
If the window is opened wide, the heating effect of the charcoal pot will be limited.
Without burning charcoal, sleeping indoors in this weather is unrealistic.
Zhao Ce kissed her little face with some pity: "Let me buy some better charcoal tomorrow, and it won't stink by then."
"You're pregnant with a child, and you followed me all the way and traveled so far. Fortunately, both you and the child are fine."
And counting the days, it took less than two months for them to travel this way, and the child was also less than two months old.
This probably happened when they set out.
Su Cai'er took the baby in her belly and accompanied her by car, boat and horseback riding.
Zhao Ce is still a little scared when he thinks about it now.
Su Caier touched her belly and said, "Husband, don't worry. The doctor said that the child and I are fine."
After saying that, Su Cai'er raised her little head proudly: "The doctor also said that my health is very good!"
Zhao Ce smiled and kissed her: "Well, our Caier is the best!"
Su Cai'er smiled and kissed him.
Both of them were so happy this afternoon that their spirits were somewhat high.
Kissing each other, Zhao Ce pulled the brakes in time.
Su Cai'er's voice was soft: "Husband, what's wrong?"
Zhao Ce said helplessly: "Now that you have a child, we can no longer be as impulsive as before."
Su Cai'er clearly felt the emotional fluctuations of the person beside her pillow: "What should I do if my husband feels uncomfortable?"
Zhao Ce also felt some sweet distress.
It had only been half a year since he and the little girl had consummated their marriage. The two of them had never gotten tired of living together, so they couldn't get close to each other now.
Zhao Ce could only say helplessly: "Then it's uncomfortable, it's okay."
"As long as you and the child are fine."
