The world of film and television begins with Zhou Bingkun in the human world.
Chapter 40 Zheng Juan's Fear
After getting married, Zhou Bingkun lived a very happy life.
However, there was one thing that Zhou Bingkun was struggling with: whether or not to have a child.
Or, to put it another way, should we have children so early?
It is now 1971, and according to Zhou Bingkun's plan, he will take the college entrance examination in 1977, which is six years later.
He might go to Beijing or Shanghai, but he definitely won't stay in Jichun City.
After all, staying in Jichun City would inevitably mean continuing to deal with the Zhou family, which was not something Zhou Bingkun wanted to do.
Before the college entrance examination, they shouldn't have children. After the exam, Zhou Bingkun could even take Zheng Juan with him and leave Jichun City. Because without children, things would be much simpler.
However, having children can make it more difficult to take college entrance exams or even move the whole family.
Another aspect is Zhou Bingkun; he doesn't seem to be ready to be a father yet.
After all, he is only 20 years old now, and in six years he will only be 26. Even if he graduates from university, he will only be 30. At that time, Zheng Juan will only be 28 years old, which is the perfect age for childbearing. It will not be too late for anything.
However, this "not too late" is Zhou Bingkun's opinion as a time traveler. But for other people in this era, having a child at 30? That's way too late.
Moreover, having a child is not a decision Zhou Bingkun can make alone; he also needs to consider Zheng Juan's attitude.
Zheng Juan, as a typical woman of this era, probably desperately wants a child of her own.
If they have a child now, by the time Zhou Bingkun takes the college entrance exam, their child will probably be four or five years old, which seems just right.
"Bingkun, what's wrong with you lately? I feel like you've been preoccupied with something. Now that we're husband and wife, we're family, a unit. If there's anything you can't talk to me about, you can discuss it with me." Zheng Juan noticed Zhou Bingkun's mood and looked at him earnestly, her eyes filled with tenderness.
Zheng Juan seemed to have transformed into a gentle, yielding woman; Zhou Bingkun felt that even if he were made of steel, he would be melted by her.
"Juan'er, it's like this, I think our country will definitely reinstate the college entrance examination in the future, probably in six or seven years. At that time, I want to go to university." Zhou Bingkun organized his thoughts and said to Zheng Juan.
"Go to university? That's great! Bingkun, you're so talented, and you're even a great writer. You'll definitely get into university." Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun with complete trust, seemingly without a shred of doubt about his words.
"So I'm a little hesitant about whether we should have a child so soon. If we have a child so soon, it might be relatively troublesome for me to take the college entrance exam later—" Zhou Bingkun stopped before he could finish speaking because he noticed that Zheng Juan's face was a little pale and her eyes were filled with fear when he said he was considering whether or not to have a child.
Almost instantly, Zhou Bingkun understood the source of Zheng Juan's fear.
Zheng Juan was afraid that Zhou Bingkun would abandon her after he went to university and became a college student!
Otherwise, why wouldn't Zhou Bingkun want to have children with her? If they don't have children, then after Zhou Bingkun gets into university and becomes a college student, can he just abandon her and leave to find another college student to be his wife, as if that would be a more suitable match?
It's no wonder Zheng Juan thought that way, after all, Qin Xianglian had given birth to two children for Chen Shimei, yet Chen Shimei still abandoned Qin Xianglian after becoming the top scholar in the imperial examination.
Even more so, there are cases where some people, after achieving success and fame, abandon their wives and children and then marry other people; Zheng Juan has heard similar stories before.
"Alright, let's have a baby sooner rather than later. Let's try to have our first child within two years." Zhou Bingkun knew what Zheng Juan was afraid of, so he simply chuckled and said this to her.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Juan felt somewhat uneasy, but she was better than before; at least her face wasn't as pale.
"Juan'er, do you want to study with me? It's still several years before the college entrance examination is reinstated. If you study with me, who knows, you might be able to get into university with me in the future," Zhou Bingkun said to Zheng Juan with a smile.
Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun in astonishment, then shook her head violently: "I've never been to school, I don't even know many words, how could I possibly take the college entrance exam? Bingkun, you must be joking."
"I'm not kidding. So what if you haven't been to school? We have plenty of time to learn."
Zheng Juan just kept shaking her head, not believing that she was qualified to take the college entrance exam. She didn't think she had that ability at all.
"How about this, I'll teach you to read. Whether you take the college entrance exam or not, it's always good to know more characters."
So, Zhou Bingkun often taught Zheng Juan to read in his spare time.
Then Zhou Bingkun realized that Zheng Juan really didn't have any talent. Going to university? Even with so much time left, she had no chance of getting into any university.
Because Zheng Juan isn't exactly known for being particularly intelligent.
Zheng Juan was indeed kind-hearted, resilient, and very diligent and obedient. However, she was not quick enough to learn to read, or rather, she wasn't particularly intelligent.
Compared to studying, Zheng Juan prefers to spend her time working, doing chores, and taking care of Li Suhua and Zhou Bingkun.
Moreover, perhaps because Zhou Bingkun had previously discussed with Zheng Juan whether or not to have a child so early, Zheng Juan became more clingy, obedient, and compliant towards Zhou Bingkun.
In some ways, she even became more obsessed with Zhou Bingkun.
As a result, Zhou Bingkun frequently suffered from lower back pain and weak legs for a considerable period of time.
This somewhat damaged Zhou Bingkun's dignity as a man, so he could only secretly go to the pharmacy to buy medicines like Liuwei Dihuang Pills, and he even often put goji berries in his water cup.
Zhou Bingkun even went to the black market to inquire if they sold tiger bones, deer antlers, or similar items, intending to use them to make medicinal wine.
Even in this era, tiger bones and deer penises are still extremely rare treasures, and it would be very difficult for Zhou Bingkun to buy them even if he wanted to.
Finally, Zhou Bingkun put aside his pride and went to see Tu Zhiqiang.
When Tu Zhiqiang heard that Zhou Bingkun planned to buy tiger bones and deer antler velvet to make medicinal wine, his gaze towards Zhou Bingkun changed.
