Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Looking at his wife, who rarely showed such vulnerability and shyness, Zhou Yanshen's heart melted completely.

"When you asked me to take my clothes off... to cooperate with the examination, I didn't hesitate at all."

He had shown it to his wife openly and honestly, so why was she unwilling to show it to him now? He felt that this was something that husband and wife should take care of for each other.

Su Wanqing: "..." Well, this is what they're waiting for! This man is quite vengeful!

"Fine, fine, you come on then." She closed her eyes in a defiant manner, since... it was his own request!

Zhou Yanshen, his ears turning red, gently began to clean and wash his wife, changing her into clean clothes. Then, he faced another problem...

"Wife, this... paper, how should I fold it?"

He held the paper, somewhat at a loss.

Su Wanqing quickly folded a menstrual belt, which Zhou Yanshen took, unwrapped, and refolded.

"It's quite convenient to fold it like this, but you're so wet that you need to change it every one or two hours," he said thoughtfully. "From now on, I'll fold these things for you, and you can sleep in your own bed at night while I change it for you."

Su Wanqing: "..."

What? Did she hear that right?

No, that's not necessary!

She didn't know that in this day and age, women had heavy periods at night and were trying to sleep. Did they really have to change their uterus every one or two hours?

Why not just make a cloth strip with cotton padding in the middle? That would be more comfortable, and I wouldn't have to change it so often at night... I'll make it tomorrow!

"By the way, honey, tell me quickly, what should I pay attention to during this period? What exactly should I do? Should I drink brown sugar water? Why don't you skip work tomorrow?"

He saw that his wife's face had turned pale, so he figured she must have been in a lot of pain. How could he bear to let her go to work like that?

After changing into dry clothes and lying on the newly made kang (a heated brick bed), Su Wanqing felt much more comfortable, even though her lower abdomen still ached slightly.

When a woman has her period, she really just wants to lie still and not move at all.

She nodded listlessly: "No need to drink brown sugar water. It's better to drink that in the first three days of your period to replenish your blood and energy. Drinking it now might make you bleed more. Tomorrow... I won't go. I'll just stay home and rest."

The village is currently in the off-season for farming, and the villagers are drinking well water mixed with spiritual spring water, which has improved their physical condition. Few people get sick, so it doesn't matter if we don't go to the clinic for the time being.

The mushroom cultivation site is just a few dozen meters away diagonally across the street; she should be able to take a look when she has some free time.

Zhou Yanshen sat up, found his Hero fountain pen, and carefully wrote down his questions in his notebook as he did so: "Wife, how often do you usually get your period? Is the time fixed? Does it come earlier or later?"

"Besides abdominal pain, are there any other discomforts?"

"How long should you press these acupoints each time? How much pressure should you apply?"

"Should I prepare brown sugar water for you a few days in advance before your next visit?"

……

Su Wanqing: "..."

Who says a cold and aloof man doesn't talk much?

Zhou Yanshen pressed for details, asking about every single thing about menstrual care for women, and meticulously filled an entire page with notes. He even learned acupressure and wrote down small things like preparing brown sugar and ginger water before his next period.

Just as Su Wanqing was so touched by Zhou Yanshen's thoughtfulness that her heart melted, and she couldn't help but hug his waist, rubbing her cheek against his well-defined abs, her fingers touching and pressing here and there, Zhou Yanshen's deep voice suddenly came from above her head:

"Wanqing, what you just told me about... the cycle, you mean that the chances of getting pregnant are higher on certain days during intercourse, and lower a few days before and after menstruation, is that right?"

Su Wanqing blinked. "Yeah, what's wrong?" Why did he suddenly ask that?

Zhou Yanshen pursed his thin lips, seemingly choosing his words carefully, and then said very solemnly, "It's nothing, just making a note of it. Wanqing, if you want a child, we'll have sex on the days you mentioned. If you don't want a child for the time being, we'll try to avoid those days."

Su Wanqing's heart skipped a beat, and she asked in return, "And what about you? Do you want children?"

Zhou Yanshen thought about it seriously, "I'm fine with anything, but I feel that it's too dangerous for Comrade Xiuer to give birth. If it weren't for you, she might have lost her life. So I thought that once we go back to the city, the conditions will be better and you will be safer."

I still feel scared when I think about him now.

He didn't even dare to think about what he would do if his wife were like Xiuer.

Therefore, he needs to complete more missions, accumulate military merits, and return to the city as soon as possible!

"What if... I don't want children in the future? Childbirth is very painful..." Su Wanqing looked at Zhou Yanshen.

She knew that people shouldn't be tested, because they can't withstand it, but she couldn't help but test him anyway, wanting to see Zhou Yanshen's opinion on the matter.

Zhou Yanshen held her hand in his palm, his grip steady and warm.

"Wanqing, remember, you are Su Wanqing first, you are yourself. Only then can you take on other identities—you can be a doctor, you can choose to be a mother, or you can always just be yourself."

"If you want children, I will look forward to the continuation of life with you; if you don't, we will live a good life together. For me, children have never been a necessity, but rather another possibility for our relationship—if we have them, it would be a bonus; if we don't, you will still be my everything, Zhou Yanshen."

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Su Wanqing couldn't help but smile slightly. "What if Mom disagrees, saying we've made the Zhou family line die out?"

Zhou Yanshen's eyebrows twitched slightly, and a very faint smile flickered across his lips.

"No, Mother also wanted to end the Zhou family line back then..." but she didn't succeed.

"Okay, I was just joking. About having children..." Su Wanqing decided to stop teasing Zhou Yanshen and express her true thoughts: "Let's leave it to fate. We won't force it, nor will we deliberately avoid it. I believe that every baby is a little angel from heaven, and they will choose the most suitable parents and time to come into this world."

"Okay." Zhou Yanshen seemed touched by her words, and lowered his head to kiss her forehead. "Go to sleep."

Su Wanqing gave a satisfied "hmm", put one arm around his lean waist and the other on his well-defined abs, closed her eyes and let her consciousness sink into the Rubik's Cube space.

In the planting space, a new batch of vegetables has ripened. Cabbage, eggplant, cucumber, and bok choy were all harvested by her mind and stored in the grid.

She discovered that if these crops were not harvested for a long time, the fruit would continue to grow and even age and fall off, which would be a waste. Therefore, they had to be harvested into the spatial grid with "time stillness" in a timely manner.
