Xiao Beiguo put the bowl aside, looked at her pale face, and couldn't help but think of the past.

Several times, he saw that Su Xiaowan's complexion was not very good, but she still endured the discomfort and drank those folk remedies for having a son.

At that time, he never thought that it was a stomachache, but only believed that she endured the bitterness of various medicinal herbs in order to give birth to a son.

After all, the taste was so great that even a grown man like him couldn't finish it, but she never had any left over.

Thinking about it now, Xiao Beiguo wanted to slap himself twice. Putting aside the fact that Su Xiaowan wanted to have a son, there was actually nothing wrong with her.

But because of all this, I have never been considerate of her. Moreover, because of this, I have become distant from her and even annoyed with her.

"You sleep, I'll do the work. If you feel uncomfortable, you need to rest more."

Su Xiaowan wanted to sleep, but her stomach still felt uncomfortable and she couldn't sleep at all, especially the faint pulling feeling in her abdomen, as if something was pulling at her and wouldn't fall off.

"I can't sleep, you take a nap."

She moved a little further inside. After all, it was still very hot and if she didn't take a rest, she would feel listless.

Xiao Beiguo didn't say anything. He took off his shoes and lay down beside her. He felt very distressed when he saw her brows wrinkled because of discomfort.

"Does it feel this bad every time you come here?"

"It will happen after Xixi is born. It was fine before, but the timing was not accurate."

Su Xiaowan actually didn't take good care of herself during the confinement period, so it was Xiao Beiguo who took care of her during the first half month after giving birth to Xixi.

In the second half of the month, because the family had no money, Xiao Beiguo and Zhang Zhiwei took the goods to sell there.

He didn't come back that night because she got hungry quickly from feeding, and by midnight, she was starving.

It just so happened that Xiao Beiguo had boiled a pot of hot water, which she accidentally knocked over.

She was so hungry, but she had to look after the child, so she could only drink the boiled water that had been cooled before.

After that, she felt uncomfortable in her stomach every month during her period, but she never told anyone.

"It's my fault that I didn't take good care of you. I didn't even take good care of you during the confinement period, and that's why you got sick."

Xiao Beiguo felt very guilty. Although he didn't understand this, he asked Grandma Li as soon as Su Xiaowan became pregnant.

That time when I went out to sell goods, I said hello to Granny Li and asked her to help deliver some steamed buns and chicken soup the next morning.

The reason he went out that time was also to let Su Xiaowan eat more meat and eggs during her confinement period.

"It's not your fault. Just take care of yourself and everything will get better in the future." Su Xiaowan didn't blame Xiao Beiguo.

After all, when Xixi was born, she asked Xiao Beiguo to prepare all kinds of food for her, just so that she could have a son next time.

"So what should I do now? Can I help you relieve it?"

Xiao Beiguo was at a loss as to what to do, and the pain in his eyes was hard to hide.

"I don't know either. Just lie down for a while and see. I feel a little better after drinking the brown sugar water."

Su Xiaowan didn’t understand either. Every time she felt uncomfortable, she would lie down for a while. If the pain was unbearable, she would drink hot water.

By the next day, my period would come back normally and the pain would no longer occur.

"Then close your eyes and get some sleep."

Xiao Beiguo looked at her as she hunched over, his hands pressing hard on her belly, holding her in his arms.

"I'll rub it for you."

I don't know if it will work, but seeing that she feels comfortable when pressed, it should be able to relieve the pain.

Su Xiaowan did not refuse. She felt uncomfortable all over. She hummed and felt his palm on her abdomen. The hot temperature was very comfortable.

Xiao Beiguo frowned when he touched the cold skin, "Why is your stomach so cold?"

"I don't know. It's fine normally, but it feels particularly cold during my period." Su Xiaowan never cared about it before.

Xiao Beiguo sighed in his heart and attributed the problem to the fact that he did not take good care of himself during the confinement period.

He rubbed it gently, not daring to use too much force, and did not forget to ask, "How does it feel?"

"It's OK. My stomach doesn't seem to hurt as much anymore. It feels warm."

Xiao Beiguo's frowned brows relaxed a little, and he looked down at her face without feeling so painful.

He whispered, "You sleep, I'll massage you."

Su Xiaowan nodded. Every time she felt pain, she felt lazy.

I don’t know if Xiao Beiguo’s massage was effective or if I was just too sleepy, but I fell asleep without realizing it.

When I woke up again, the sun had already set and Xiao Beiguo was no longer by my side.

Su Xiaowan sat up. This time her stomach was not uncomfortable. As soon as she got out of bed, a warm current surged out and her face changed slightly.

I quickly went to the closet to get the sanitary napkin, but after taking a few steps, I felt another warm current.

Even without looking, Su Xiaowan knew that it must have gotten on her body again.

Every time after the pain, the amount is so huge that it often gets on my clothes.

Looking at the rough and inconvenient menstrual cloth, Su Xiaowan felt a little annoyed.

In her previous life, in order to give birth to a son, she was reluctant to spend money to buy WSJ. Some people in the village who lived well were using it.

Su Xiaowan cursed herself silently in her heart. She had to buy some of this when she went out tomorrow morning.

After changing, she took the menstrual pad and prepared to wash it. She bumped into Xiao Beiguo who came back from outside and subconsciously hid her hands behind her back.

Xiao Beiguo was holding a black bag in his hand, and when he saw what she hid behind her, he looked a little unnatural.

He handed the bag in his hand to Su Xiaowan, "This is for you."

He took the rolled menstrual cloth from her hand and said in a somewhat stiff tone, "Don't use this in the future. I bought you another one. Show me how to use it."

Before Su Xiaowan could say anything, Xiao Beiguo had already walked out quickly, his ears red.

Looking at his slightly hurried steps, Su Xiaowan couldn't help but laugh.

When I opened the bag, I found two types inside, one for daytime use and the other for nighttime use. They were of different lengths but very thick.

Looking at this thing, Su Xiaowan felt a lot of emotions in her heart. In her previous life, when she followed Xiao Beiguo to a big city, he also bought it for her.

There are many kinds, both for day and night use, and they are all the best brands at the time.

But at that time, she didn't care about what he did at all. She always felt that he was not good enough, and she quarreled with him all day long because she couldn't conceive a son.

Su Xiaowan sighed and looked at the yard. The setting sun was shining on the edge of the yard wall. Xiao Beiguo took the menstrual cloth back and stood not far away watching Xixi play.

I don’t know what he was thinking, there was a faint smile on his face, and he looked satisfied and happy.

Su Xiaowan stared at him for a long time. The setting sun shone on his profile, making his outline more three-dimensional. He looked a little fatter than before.

She had always known that Xiao Beiguo was very handsome, but at this moment, she was a little dazed.

When Xiao Beiguo smiled, he looked much better than when he had a tense face. He looked more relaxed and not as heavy as usual.

Until he walked in front of her and called her softly, "What are you looking at?"

Su Xiaowan stared at the face so close to her, her cheeks flushed and her eyes became evasive.

"No, I was watching the sunset." She made up an excuse.

Xiao Beiguo followed her line of sight and said, "It is indeed beautiful."

He said with some emotion, "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is almost dusk."

"When we are old, we will sit in the yard and watch the sunset together."

Su Xiaowan turned her head to look at him, her heartbeat quickened, and an idea flashed through her mind.

Will she grow old with Xiao Beiguo?

After all, he has someone he likes in his heart. If she remembers correctly, that woman will come back during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
