Commander Xiao didn't hear anyone come downstairs in the morning, so he knew she was probably on her period. He had asked the doctor before, and the doctor was blunt, saying that it was impossible to cure her condition all at once, and that she could only be treated slowly. In fact, she was already doing very well.
He figured it should be within the next day or two, so he'd been on high alert these past few days. Sure enough, when he didn't hear anyone come downstairs this morning, he quickly poured a cup of brown sugar water and brought it upstairs.
He learned his lesson about brown sugar water after being burned several times. He had kindly gone upstairs to greet the person, but the door was locked and they ignored him. Only after he poured brown sugar water did the person reluctantly open the door for him. After that, he knew how to handle things.
Upon reaching the door, Commander Xiao listened intently for a while before gently knocking: "Would you like some brown sugar water?"
At this moment, Zhou Chuan was lying in bed resting. Her body was not as painful as before, but it was still a little sore. In addition, her lower back was sore and swollen, so she did not want to get up and treated it as a day off.
Hearing the noise at the door, Zhou Chuan hesitated for a moment before getting up to open it. If the person had come empty-handed, she would have told them to get lost, but it seemed a bit excessive to tell them to get lost when they were carrying hot brown sugar water.
"Are you feeling any better this time?" Commander Xiao closed the door as soon as he came in, then placed the brown sugar water on the bedside table. "Drink it quickly, the temperature is just right."
He noticed the air in the room was a bit stuffy and wanted to help open the window to let in some fresh air, but since it was someone else's room, he couldn't just make the decision on his own. So he asked, "Would you like me to open the window to let in some fresh air?" He didn't dare say that the air inside was bad.
Zhou Chuan finished the cup of brown sugar water in one gulp: "Add more sugar next time. I feel it's not as sweet as last time."
Commander Xiao nodded hastily, "Alright, alright, I'll put in more next time." You can't argue with a woman like this. Last time she said there was too much sugar, and this time she's saying there wasn't enough.
After drinking the brown sugar water, she found a comfortable position to lie on the bed: "Go and cook some porridge later, and boil two more eggs, otherwise you'll get hungry if you only eat porridge."
Commander Xiao glanced at the curtains, then decided to ignore them. He moved a chair and sat down beside her bed: "Are you feeling better? Should we take you to see a doctor in a couple of days?"
Zhou Chuan shook his head: "Forget it, this is already very good. Before, I was in so much pain that I couldn't even get out of bed. Now I can still open the door for you. This is God's blessing. I thank you, but I still won't trouble you."
Zhou Chuan was truly grateful to him for this. If he hadn't insisted on taking her to see a doctor, she would probably still be in excruciating pain right now.
"Will you be in pain like this from now on?" Commander Xiao frowned as he saw her pale face. "Don't feel like you're bothering me. Actually, driving a car isn't a problem for me at all."
Zhou Chuan smiled and said, "I heard from the old folks in the village that things will get better after the baby is born, but I don't know if it's true."
"There's such a saying?" Commander Xiao was hearing this for the first time and was quite surprised.
"Don't tell me the old folks in your village are lying to you? I don't see other women like you. If it really doesn't work, I'll take you to a big hospital to get checked out once you're better."
"I've heard many young wives say that the pain stops after childbirth, so it must be somewhat effective. I was just ruined by Sun Gousheng. Never mind, let's not talk about him anymore."
Zhou Chuan was satisfied with the current situation, so she didn't say anything more about Sun Gousheng. She turned her head to the side and chuckled on the pillow, "You idiot, what did you just say? That other women aren't like me? Do you think I'd tell you if they're in pain!"
Commander Xiao smiled as he saw her smile: "They told me, but I didn't listen. I mean, I haven't heard my comrades say anything. If their wives were like you, they would definitely say something."
"You soldiers even talk about these things about your own wives?" Zhou Chuan rolled his eyes. "Don't you grown men have any shame about saying such things?"
Commander Xiao glanced at her cautiously: "We didn't say anything, we just consulted each other. For example, if someone's wife suddenly lost her temper, or if someone's child was disobedient, we would talk about it privately and see if there were any good solutions. Everyone would give us some ideas."
Zhou Chuan found it quite interesting: "People have good comradeship and can learn from each other. You have a bad temper, so who would want to talk to you? Could it be that you were eavesdropping?"
"Don't underestimate me. I may have a bad temper, but I do have comrades-in-arms, and not just one, but many." Commander Xiao was extremely guilty and didn't dare to look people in the eye.
Zhou Chuan burst out laughing at his expression: "Oh my, so you have so many comrades-in-arms. Come on, tell me about them. I've been in your unit for more than half a year now, and I know a lot of people. Just tell me two, besides Political Commissar Ma, just tell me two more. You don't need two, one is fine too. Just tell me one more, tell me a name."
Commander Xiao opened his mouth several times and then closed it again, finally glaring at Zhou Chuan: "No, it's just Old Ma. You're so smug now."
Zhou Chuan chuckled and said, "I know you too well. You're the kind of person who loves to brag."
Commander Xiao sat beside her, watching her laugh happily, and his mood improved as well.
"You're the one who likes to brag. Your handwriting is so terrible, but you always brag to people about how smart you are."
Zhou Chuan reached out and pinched him: "Is this your punishment for framing me!"
