Reborn cannon fodder ex-wife, the chief is a henpecked husband
Chapter 53 Pregnancy? Children?
On this side, after Huo Chenzhou left, he took the small path and took a shortcut back to Anping Town. He passed through the woods and an hour later, he arrived at Anping Town at his pace.
Several people from the Huo family were cleaning up the pastries and packing up the remaining ones to send to a shabby house over there.
The reason why the dilapidated house is called "dilapidated" is because the people living in it are those whose ancestors were rich and powerful and were driven down from their homes. However, as things develop, after the college entrance examination, there will be more college students, and there will be a shortage of "stinking shits" like them.
Shi Yanning had just returned from delivering some pastries. Because she was pregnant, Zhou Xiaochuan, who lived here, would send her home after getting the pastries.
Originally, it was Grandma Huo who went there, but today everyone was busy, so she took on this task.
Zhou Xiaochuan is fifteen years old this year, and he should be in school age. However, due to his sensitive identity and family conditions, he is just a bag of bones. When I first met Zhou Xiaochuan, he was collecting scraps from door to door. Shi Yanning saw that his skinny and dark hands and legs were just skin and bones, and he looked like what later generations called a "skeleton" handsome guy.
He and his grandmother depended on each other for survival. When Grandma Huo saw him, he was being bullied. Feeling sorry for him, she helped drive away the people who bullied him.
"Sister, we're at your house. I'll go back first. Thank you."
Shi Yanning knew that she was afraid that others would know that she had contact with him and gossip about him, so she nodded and said, "Xiaochuan, go back and be careful. If you have any problems, you can come to us. Don't be afraid."
Zhou Xiaochuan neither nodded nor shook his head, and Shi Yanning returned to the shop. Zhou Xiaochuan watched the figure disappear before turning around and walking back.
Who knew that just as he passed the entrance of the alley, he was kicked from behind. The kick happened to hit his leg, and his body went limp and he fell to the ground.
What followed was a barrage of punches and curses.
"You little bastard! Someone saved you last time, but not this time!"
"Beat him up! Teach him a lesson! He's the only one who wants to compete with us for waste collection?"
"Don't you see who you are? You are the grandson of a stinky old man, how dare you!" As he said that, he kicked him hard again.
Zhou Xiaochuan knew what these people were doing, but he had no way to deal with it.
They can only endure it and let the beatings go out, because after all, people of their status will be despised wherever they go.
A voice seemed to ring out in a daze: Xiaochuan, as long as you survive until dawn, you can stand in the sun again.
Huo Chenzhou was taking a shortcut out of an intersection in Anping Town. Just as he approached the street and alley, he heard muffled groans.
Huo Chenzhou listened to the sound and found the direction from which the sound came. He took a running start and flew onto the roof on his toes. He was carrying a large package on his back. He ran a few quick steps without making any sound and soon disappeared.
Huo Chenzhou was standing on a high place, so it was easier for him to see that it was several teenage boys beating up another boy. The boy did not resist, but just groaned when he was hit, but his eyes suddenly lit up amazingly.
Huo Chenzhou moved and appeared silently behind several people. He casually threw the stones under his feet, and several stones hit several people on their buttocks.
Several people screamed in pain, covered their buttocks and turned around, only to see a man in military uniform. They were young and timid, and were so frightened that they almost lost control of their bladder.
Huo Chenzhou glanced at the boy lying on the ground. His breathing was a little disordered, but he was not seriously injured.
"It is against the law to attack people in the street and gang up on them. Let's go to the police station!"
Several people were so scared that their eyes narrowed, their mouths drooped, and they quickly begged for mercy.
"No, PLA uncle, we were just playing around, we didn't mean to kill him."
Zhou Xiaochuan propped himself up and stood up. Because of the backlight, he could only see a tall and imposing figure with a large cloth bag on his shoulder.
"Can you still walk? If you can, then go ahead and your injuries will heal naturally in a few days."
Since Huo Chenzhou learned martial arts from his grandfather since he was a child and later joined the army, he understood injuries and the human body structure better than ordinary people.
Zhou Xiaochuan propped himself up with his hands, pulled his aching back, and said with a clenched mouth: "Thank you."
When the people nearby saw the two men talking, they turned around and tried to escape.
Zhou Xiaochuan only felt a flash before his eyes, and several people screamed, and their arms were all removed by Huo Chenzhou. "Let's go to the police station. Hurry up, if it takes too long, we may not be able to get these arms back."
They were all still children, and the man's move scared them like quails. They dared not to do anything rash again and quickly followed him to the police station.
"Comrade Huo, thank you for your hard work this time. We have figured out the situation. The child who was beaten is a resident of the dilapidated house in the town. His grandmother has a bad background, so he came out to pick up trash, but a few people...
Zhou Xiaochuan, we will send someone to send them back. It is wrong for these children to gang up on others and beat them up. We will educate them properly. "
Huo Chenzhou nodded. Seeing that the sun had set for half an hour, he remembered that he didn't know where his shop was. "Comrade Public Security, may I ask what are the new shops in this town? What are their names and where are they?"
Comrade Gong'an was one of the two comrades who went to the inspection with Qian Jin. As soon as he heard about Gu's dim sum shop, he mentioned it.
"There are three shops opened in our town. The first one is Gu's Dim Sum Shop, which is in the center of the town. The dim sum here is really delicious. Another one is Jinluyi Clothing Shop, which is also in the center of the town. The last one is a steamed bun shop, which is at the entrance of the town."
Huo Chenzhou thought for a moment, nodded to indicate that he understood, said goodbye and left, quickly disappearing into the night.
When Zhou Xiaochuan saw the tall figure, an indescribable impulse suddenly surged in his heart. He wanted to join the army and he wanted to be a member of the People's Liberation Army!
Huo family.
Shi Yanning was drinking the stewed chicken soup made by Grandma Huo, watching the other members of the Huo family busy with their own things, keeping the shop and the home in order, as if he had done nothing.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Shi Yanning saw that everyone was busy and finally found something to do. He got up and went out of the yard to see who it was.
"Who is it?" A young female voice came from the crack of the door, and Huo Chenzhou's troubled heart suddenly calmed down.
"It's me, Huo Chenzhou." A man's deep voice came.
With a "creak", the door was opened from the inside, and a not-so-slender figure appeared in front of Huo Chenzhou.
Because it had been dark for a while, Shi Yanning turned on the lights in the store. The dim light shone on her, sacred and warm.
Huo Chenzhou's mind was instantly confused. This wife looked the same as in his memory, but why was her belly so big?
Shi Yanning felt a little surprised. Why did this man suddenly come home and stand outside the door without coming in? He looked so stupid. Could he be crazy?
"Ningning, who is that?" Grandma Huo became a little worried when she saw that Shi Yanning had not come back yet.
Grandma Huo's voice interrupted the thoughts churning in the two people's minds.
"Grandma, it's... Chenzhou is back." Shi Yanning was still a little uncomfortable calling the man in front of her like that.
The string in Huo Chenzhou's mind was briefly connected. He stepped into the house and closed the door. Just as he was about to say something, he found that his wife had entered through the back door with a big belly.
Huo Chenzhou glanced around the store casually. The decoration and design were better than the stores in the city near the army that he had visited before.
His sight fell on the woman who was walking cautiously in front of him. What? A thought that made him unbelievable flashed through his mind. She was pregnant? He was going to be a father? ? ? ! ! ! ! This realization hit his nerves.
...Pregnant...For a long while, Huo Chenzhou stood there stiffly, motionless, as if he were a statue.
It took him a while to react and he found that his wife had already walked away.
Huo Chenzhou hurriedly caught up and entered the backyard. The backyard was also a different world. When he went out and came back home, he not only moved, but also seemed to have changed his home.
"Chenzhou? You're back? Good. Your dad called today and said you were on the plane. We all thought you were on a mission again."
When several people came out of the kitchen and the workshop next door, they saw a figure standing in the yard and were all extremely surprised.
It was just time for dinner, so Huo Chenzhou put the package down and went into the kitchen to serve the dishes.
The family sat together, eating and chatting.
"How long is this vacation?" Mr. Huo asked.
Huo Chenzhou glanced at Shi Yanning next to him, picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and gave it to her, and replied: "One month. This time I am allowed to make up for the vacation I didn't take last time, and I also have seven days of wedding leave."
"You're finally back. If you hadn't come back, the baby in Ningning's belly would have been born," said Mrs. Huo, feeling a little guilty.
Shi Yanning sensed Mother Huo's emotions and quickly said, "Mom, the food you cooked today is so delicious. You must have worked so hard. You have to eat more."
Huo Chenzhou looked at the smiling little woman beside him, his heart filled with tenderness. She gave him a surprise. When he didn't know, she gave birth to his blood alone. She didn't feel wronged, but comforted his family instead.
Her belly was the continuation of his life. Thinking of this, waves of warmth surged into his heart, slowly gathering into a torrent that churned in his chest.
My mind was full of information about the baby. Thinking of the dream I had last night, I was even more grateful that I had met her when I visited my relatives.
Shi Yanning didn't know what Huo Chenzhou was thinking. She was just thinking about what to do when they went to bed later. She still felt a little embarrassed when she thought about sleeping together.
After a long time of procrastination, he brushed his teeth, washed his face, washed his feet, and went to the toilet, but he still felt uncomfortable. Grandma Huo and Mother Huo saw this in the yard and smiled at each other silently.
Shi Yanning felt his feet were getting cold and he had to go upstairs.
As soon as she took one step onto the stairs, a pair of hands covered with thick calluses reached out from behind her. The palms were warm and the fingers were slender, holding her steadily.
"Slower."
Huo Chenzhou hurried upstairs. Shi Yanning was curled up on the bed, trying to fall asleep.
Normally she could fall asleep quickly, but today she couldn't fall asleep at all, and the baby in her belly was so active that it seemed like it was playing football in her belly.
When Huo Chenzhou pushed the door open, he saw his wife lying on the bed, staring blankly at her unusually large belly. When she heard him push the door open, she raised her jade-like face to look at him.
Huo Chenzhou walked into the house with restraint, as if nothing was different from usual, if you ignored the way he walked with his hands and feet together.
There was also a painting tube next to the package, which contained the New Year paintings sent by Tao Xiaobo. Huo Chenzhou didn't know whether he should take it out at this time.
"What's wrong? Aren't you going to sleep?"
Shi Yanning couldn't sleep, so she just sat on the bed and looked at her belly.
Huo Chenzhou put the painting tube aside, opened the package, and just as he reached his hand in, he paused.
The skirts she bought are all small sizes, and it seems like she can't wear them...
Huo Chenzhou put the package containing the skirt aside again, reached out to take out other lotions and watches, and handed them to Shi Yanning.
The man was holding a box that exuded a fragrant scent. On it was a picture of the back of a woman in a cheongsam, and there was a watch next to the box.
The silver strap shone faintly under the light, and the dial was inlaid with tiny...
What is this? A diamond? With her eyesight, she can tell that this is definitely a diamond, not crystal.
Huo Chenzhou saw the woman staring at her watch in a daze and thought she didn't like him:
"I bought this at the city mall. Don't you like it?"
"I like it very much, thank you."
Shi Yanning took the watch, which still had the warmth of the man's palm. His hand was suddenly held by the man.
With a "click", the watch was put on the jade-white wrist.
The man then placed the vanishing cream on Shi Yanning's dressing table, which was built by Mr. Huo.
He beat all three women in the family, but Shi Yanning beat him because of the design that Shi Yanning gave him later.
This gave the old man a deeper understanding of Lu Ban's techniques.
The old man is currently making a crib and cradle for the baby in his belly, as well as some small toys.
He has to make two copies of each gift, so he has been very busy recently and has no time even to invite Mr. Qi to have tea with him.
Huo Chenzhou put two boxes of vanishing cream on the dressing table and saw two wooden ponies: "Do you like horses?"
"Oh, that's what Grandpa made for his unborn children. The children are due next year."
"You.....you mean the children?"
