Chapter 1444: Chapter 1444: Quite Fond of It

Gu Yan sat down.

With a long arm, he scooped up his little wife and held her in his arms. Su Yunjin sat in Gu Yan’s embrace, her hands wrapped around his neck. "Husband, you returned so early today. Is everything taken care of at the Zuixiang Restaurant?"

"Yunjinniang, it’s cold, and there aren’t many people going to the town. There’s not much business at Zuixiang Restaurant, so I’m not busy." Gu Yan’s large hand rested on top of his little wife’s head.

His little wife’s hair was soft and smooth, which Gu Yan particularly enjoyed. "Yunjinniang, right, I have something I want to discuss with you." Gu Yan became serious.

His facial expression was very solemn.

"What is it, Husband?" Su Yunjin rarely saw Gu Yan talk to her with such earnestness. Could it be that something significant had happened?

After the little wife’s pregnancy scare, Gu Yan realized that it wouldn’t be long before the child in her belly would be born. The midwife he had arranged last time in Yangcheng.

Gu Yan planned to go there and bring the person over to take care of his little wife closely at the Gu Family residence. Taking advantage of the recent lull in business at Zuixiang Restaurant, he could afford to leave.

Holding his little wife’s hand in his palm, Gu Yan’s voice was gentle, "Yunjinniang, I plan to make a trip to Yangcheng. It will probably take four or five days before I can return."

Su Yunjin’s heart skipped a beat.

"Husband, what are you going to do in Yangcheng?" She had long forgotten about the midwife, and Su Yunjin didn’t react immediately to Gu Yan’s sudden announcement that he was going to Yangcheng.

Gu Yan explained, "Yunjinniang, your child will be born in a little more than a month, and I plan to go to Yangcheng to bring back the midwife. Both midwives were chosen by me in Yangcheng for their extensive experience in childbirth. Having them around to take care of you will not only be ready for your delivery at any moment, but they can also advise you on what to pay attention to." After all, it was his little wife’s first pregnancy.

With two experienced midwives coming back to care for his little wife, Gu Yan would be more at ease. Understanding that Gu Yan was going to Yangcheng to bring back the midwife,

Su Yunjin stared at her belly, which had grown larger, and thought to herself that it was indeed not too early to look for a midwife. Therefore, since Gu Yan wanted to go, Su Yunjin did not stop him.

But the thought of Gu Yan being away from her for so many days made Su Yunjin a bit reluctant, "Husband, what should I do if I miss you when you are in Yangcheng?"

Gu Yan looked down.

He kissed his little wife’s blushing cheek, "Yunjinniang, be good, I’ll be back very soon." His voice was soothing like one might comfort a child, filled with doting affection.

···

Gu Yan left, and Su Yunjin, worried that Gu Yan would be cold, personally packed his belongings. Soup jars, thick cotton clothes—Su Yunjin had prepared everything carefully for Gu Yan.

With Gu Yan being away for so many days and worrying about his little wife being alone at home, he went to Wang Meng’s house and got his second sister, Su Ningxiu, to come and stay with his little wife.

Su Ningxiu had stayed at Su Yunjin’s house for many days, and it hadn’t been easy to finally return home. Now, she had to go again, but Wang Meng and Su Ningxiu were a couple deeply in love.

Su Ningxiu went to Su Yunjin’s house, and while Wang Meng had managed to endure the first couple of days, by the third day, missing the feeling of holding his little wife asleep, he simply moved in to live at Su Yunjin’s house as well.

And so, the second sister and her husband both came to stay at Su Yunjin’s house.
