When Gu Beizhi came back from Uncle Guan's house, he gently pushed open the courtyard door, and sure enough, he saw Guan Zhou sleeping on a bamboo chair under the eaves.
Gently pulled the blanket for Guan Zhou, the wind at the end of September was getting colder and colder, Gu Beizhi lightly touched Guan Zhou's cheek to feel the temperature of his skin.
Xia Tian quietly came over with the brazier, and whispered to dissuade him, "Master, the master just fell asleep, so don't wake the master up."
Gu Beizhi quickly let go of his hand. Although Guan Zhou's birth was not as difficult as that of Brother Shi, it was indeed a burden.
The main change is that Guan Zhou can hardly sleep at night now, only when he is lying on the bamboo chair outside every afternoon, he can sleep steadily for a while.
Other than that, no other reactions were obvious.
Afraid of catching cold from the wind blowing outside, Xia Tian would wait for Guan Zhou to fall asleep and put a brazier beside him. Inside the brazier was high-quality silver charcoal without a trace of open flame, and then covered it with a hollowed-out lid.
This can also slightly resist the cool wind at the end of September, although Guan Zhou doesn't feel cold now.
Gu Beizhi only needs to wait for a while, and then he can see Guan Zhou throwing the blanket aside, and he puts the blanket back again.
The two of them, one sleeping and the other guarding, seemed to be playing some interesting game, so Gu Beizhi didn't feel bored or boring at all after going back and forth like this.
Gu Beizhi, who is already in his 30s, experienced the process of becoming a father for the first time, and was actually a little apprehensive and flustered.
Seeing Brother Shi's frightening appearance when she was pregnant, Gu Beizhi was too scared to show it, so he could only relieve it by keeping on guard.
Knowing his habits, Xia Tian didn't stay here long after putting down the brazier, turned around and went back to the kitchen, where chicken soup was still stewed on the stove.
Use a young rooster that has just grown up, chop it into pieces of a suitable size, put in a variety of marinade, rub and massage vigorously, until the chicken is fragrant, then rinse it repeatedly with clean water to remove the excess seasoning.
Then put it in a casserole with clear soup and low heat, and simmer slowly for an afternoon. During the process, you need to skim off the oil little by little, and finally the delicious and light chicken soup is ready.
After pregnancy, Guan Zhou's taste became much weaker, but he couldn't smell fishy, even the fishy smell of eggs, so Xia Tian specially researched such a light and non-fishy chicken soup.
On the other side, Chongming took Dabao and Erbao to study together. The two children with big names behaved more well-behaved than before. They seemed to understand that the little daddy should not be disturbed now, and the voice of reading was soft.
Gu Beizhi could hardly hear the children's voices at all, and could only see the children reading through the open window.
He sat in front of Guan Zhou, making a human body windshield. He could still see the children when he turned his head, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.
The years are quiet.
It was almost dinner time, and Guan Zhou was almost asleep. He woke up in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he smiled happily, "I seem to have dreamed about a child."
Gu Beizhi helped him up, showing care and concern in his movements, "Huh? Our child must be very well-behaved, right?"
Guan Zhou recalled the dream just now, and burst out laughing, "That's really not true. Although she is a little girl, compared to Dabao and Erbao, this child is much more mischievous."
This is the second time Guan Zhou mentioned the gender of the child. Gu Beizhi frowned unconsciously, and changed the subject calmly, "Really? It should be that Dabao and Erbao are too obedient. Xia Tian made chicken soup , it should be ready, do you want to drink some first?"
Guan Zhou has been really greedy for chicken soup recently, and immediately forgot what to say, "Yeah!"
That night, Guan Zhou was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, but he didn't feel sleepy at all. He suddenly remembered the topic that was diverted in the afternoon, and leaned on Gu Beizhi's shoulder, "Beizhi, are you asleep?"
Gu Beizhi hugged him, "Not yet, can't sleep again?"
"Well... tell me, is it a daughter in my stomach? I had two pregnancy dreams, both of which were daughters..." Guan Zhou thought of the big eyes that were exactly the same as Gu Beizhi in the dream, beautiful like A little girl like a little fairy, can't help but look forward to it.
Gu Beizhi stroked the back of his head, and his big palms carried a comfortable warm temperature, stroking slowly, little by little, all the way to the back of his neck, which made Guan Zhou relax a lot.
"For this kind of thing, just let it go. It doesn't matter if it's a boy, a girl or a little brother, as long as it's our child, it will be smart and good-looking, because the child will be loved by our family, right?"
"You're right, but I still hope not to be a little brother..." Guan Zhou put his forehead on Gu Beizhi's shoulder and neck, "Little brother's life is always harder than that of men and women... .”
Gu Beizhi patted him on the back, "Don't worry about this, at worst we recruit a son-in-law, and the child won't be wronged."
Guan Zhou was a little surprised, "Recruiting a son-in-law? Our family has a son, why do you recruit a son-in-law?"
"I don't want my child to marry off, marry into someone else's family, what should I do if I am wronged? It's better to stay in our family. I think it would be good to find a son-in-law."
Gu Beizhi really thinks so. Although he has traveled to ancient times for a year or two, his thinking is still more modern.
But he also knows that his own thoughts cannot fight against the whole society, so he usually carefully hides those thoughts that are too shocking.
Only occasionally, it will be exposed accidentally, such as this time.
Guan Zhou has long been used to his being different. Although he was surprised, it was only for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, "Well... this is okay... But I still think it would be nice if I were a daughter."
"This is beyond our control. Let it go, don't think so much. The most important thing is to take good care of your baby now. Don't worry too much."
Gu Beizhi turned sideways, wrapped Guan Zhou completely, and kissed him on the cheek, "Sleep, Xiao Zhou, do you want to sing you a lullaby?"
Gently humming a soft tune, one hand patted Guan Zhou's back lightly and rhythmically.
Guan Zhou was coaxed patiently by him, he couldn't help feeling sleepy, couldn't help yawning, pushed him away and turned over by himself, muttering, "Hot."
Then fell asleep.
Gu Beizhi waited for him to fall asleep, and tentatively pulled up the quilt that had slipped below his waist, but was still opened by Guan Zhou's slap.
Afraid of waking him up, Gu Beizhi could only let him step on the quilt under his feet, and took a thin blanket from the footrest beside him to cover him.
Guan Zhou only slept for about half an hour before he was woken up by the heat. He turned around and found that Gu Beizhi had fallen asleep, but he seemed very restless and his brows were still frowning.
He lifted the blanket off his body, but the person got closer to Gu Beizhi, almost rolling into his arms, feeling hotter, but Gu Beizhi's brows and eyes calmed down, so he had no choice but to endure and let himself continue to sleep.
The two of them slowly hugged each other, they were so hot and wet that they refused to separate.
Guan Zhou felt that his pregnancy was quite relaxed, and the morning sickness only lasted for a few days. Although there were many things that could not be eaten or smelled, but with Xia Tian's care and Gu Beizhi's protection, he felt that his life was pretty good.
He thought he was in good health, after the first three months, Guan Zhou refused to sit still.
Gu Beizhi looked at the cloth covering the bed, then at Guan Zhou who was sleeping sweetly lying on the edge of the bed, and sighed helplessly again.
He skillfully put away all the cloth heads, then carried him to the rocking chair and put him on the rocking chair, covered him with a thin blanket, and then he went to sweep the bed carefully, for fear that any needles would be left on the bed.
Seeing that the door was open, Xia Tian didn't knock on the door, and stood at the door and called softly, "Master." The voice was very soft, for fear of waking Guan Zhou up.
Gu Beizhi came out and took the sweet soup from Xia Tian's hand.
"Master fell asleep again?" Xia Tian glanced inside and frowned when he saw someone lying on the rocking chair.
"Well, but don't worry, Doctor Yu said it's a normal reaction and it will get better after a while." If the worry in his eyes could be hidden better, it might be more convincing.
Guan Zhou's birth was a bit weird. She still couldn't sleep deeply in the past few days, and she lost a lot of weight.
Seeing that I can sleep steadily, but I start to sleep too much, and I can fall asleep anytime, anywhere.
For example, I fell asleep after eating two mouthfuls and closing my eyes, fell asleep quietly while holding a needle in my hand, was still talking one second before falling asleep the next second, and so on.
The most dangerous thing was that once Guan Zhou insisted on helping Xia Tian to light the fire, he fell asleep while it was burning, and almost put his hand into the burning stove.
But Xia Tian was terrified, no matter what he said, he refused to let him enter the kitchen again.
"Master, there is still hot soup on the stove. If the master wakes up, just let me know." Xia Tian signaled that Gu Beizhi should drink this bowl.
Gu Beizhi didn't have the heart to drink any sweet soup. This was what Guan Zhou wanted to drink, so he might as well keep it and change it when it gets cold. "Didn't you make an appointment with Brother Sun? Go, Xiaozhou is here to watch That's it."
Xia Tian shook his head, "Master, I have already told someone to tell him that he will not go out recently, and we will wait until the master gives birth to the young master."
Gu Beizhi also hoped that the child would be born soon, otherwise Guan Zhou's 180-degree turn would make him panic.
Guan Zhou, who was worried, felt that his physical condition was very good recently. Sometimes he felt that he had nowhere to vent his energy and wished he could go out for a run.
But the weather is getting colder and his stomach is getting more and more distended. The family is very careful with him, so it is impossible to let him go out for a run and dance.
Even during the New Year, Second Uncle Guan's family came to Gu's house early. In order to prevent Guan Zhou from going out to pay New Year's greetings in the cold weather, Second Aunt Guan stayed with him on purpose.
After the new year, Gu Beizhi had to pack his bags and prepare to go to Kyoto for the exam.
He sat on the side, watching Guan Zhou rarely doze off, "Xiaozhou, why don't I go to Kyoto next time, and don't be in a hurry."
"Urgent, I'm very anxious." Guan Zhou rummaged through all the clothes of Gu Beizhi, and put them in the box.
Gu Beizhi didn't dare to stop him forcefully, so he could only continue to persuade him while helping to pack his things, "Xiaozhou, you see that you are pregnant, and I will not come back until mid-April after leaving, you alone People work too hard."
Guan Zhou didn't think so, and was very calm, "You can't help me at home, and you can't help me conceive a baby for a few months, so why not go to the Jinshi exam."
"Although I can't carry you, I can take care of you at night..."
Guan Zhou glared at him, "I'm not that squeamish, and I'm not a woman. I used to go to work in the fields when I was pregnant with my first baby and my second baby. Oh, don't bother me. I'm packing things here. !"
The current Guan Zhou is not when Gu Beizhi first came here, when his temper came, and Gu Beizhi really had nothing to do with him.
No matter what Gu Beizhi talked about, Guan Zhou just refused to let him stay at home, and even said that if he failed the Jinshi exam, he would not even want to enter the house in the future, and when the day came, he would be driven out of the house with his luggage.
Gu Beizhi was full of worries, but he didn't dare to really disobey Guan Zhou's intentions. He was afraid that Guan Zhou would find out if he didn't go to the capital, and if he got angry again, he could only walk away step by step.
When Gu Beizhi really left, Guan Zhou showed a trace of fragility, but disappeared in an instant.
Being a Jinshi is a major event for Guangzong Yaozu. When he passed the exam, the village wanted to hold a big celebration, but Gu Beizhi refused. If it was for the sake of the child in his belly, Gu Beizhi would never go to the Jinshi exam again. No, this child will inevitably be disliked by the elders in the village in the future.
So rationally told Guan Zhou that Gu Beizhi couldn't miss this opportunity, although he didn't want him to leave in his heart.
That night, Guan Zhou couldn't sleep again, he just felt that the room seemed to be chilly, not warm at all.
"I don't know if the road to Beizhi will be smooth..."
The author has something to say: I feel like I haven’t written for a long time, and I don’t even know how to write, so let’s just make do with it
Gently pulled the blanket for Guan Zhou, the wind at the end of September was getting colder and colder, Gu Beizhi lightly touched Guan Zhou's cheek to feel the temperature of his skin.
