Be in low spirits

It seems that he neglected to take care of his body during his pregnancy and confinement period.

"Uh...wait..." She pushed the man away and suddenly thought, what if she got pregnant again? That would be terrible. She took out the condom bag that someone had brought back from abroad from the drawer and asked him to wear it.

"How about I ask Aunt Liu to prepare the prescription for me tomorrow. Maybe it can help avoid pregnancy. But if she really gets pregnant, she can also give Yun'en a brother or sister." She said while he was putting on the contraceptive bag.

"Do you still want to have a baby?" He was already a little scared when Yun'en was born. Her screams and weak appearance during childbirth were still vivid in his mind.

"The family property must have someone to inherit. Yun'en alone may not be able to handle the responsibility. It would be better to have one more." He helped her lie down again.

"Let's talk about this later, let's solve the problem first." He became impatient again, just like before. Because of having a child, her figure had changed a little, and she was more plump than before.

Maybe it was because it was from behind, so it was deeper. I don’t know if it was because I had been holding it in for too long, but it lasted longer than before.

Although his chest and abdominal muscles were not as strong as before, his endurance and physical strength seemed to have increased, so much so that Gu Jinluo had no power to resist and could only let him do whatever he wanted.

When it was over, she could only lie on the bed gasping for air, without even the strength to raise her hands. She weakly said to the people around her, "I'm thirsty... I want to drink some water."

Ye Fan was also a little tired, so he lay aside to rest. After a few minutes, he stood up to pour her some water. Seeing that she couldn't get up, he found it funny. She was still the same as before, and she would start panting soon. He could only pour the water into his mouth and feed her mouth to mouth, but she shook her head and said, "No."

"Why are you so weak after giving birth? Haven't you recovered yet?" He helped the person up, let her lean on him and gave her water.

"It's because you took too long. I'm the one who's weak." After drinking the water, her strength seemed to have recovered a little, and she couldn't help but act coquettishly towards him.

Ye Fan put down the water cup, hugged her, lowered his head and said to her: "It may be that your husband has missed you for too long. Try to be gentler next time."

"You always tell me after the fact. If you do this again, I will call for help." She held one of his hands and kissed the back of his hand.

"I am the head of the family, who dares to come in?" Ye Fan kissed her hair, thinking about how to coax the person in his arms to do it again.

Gu Jinluo was a little tired, and according to what he said, she might really need to replenish herself. "I'll ask Aunt Liu to prepare some red ginseng soup for me tomorrow."

"Ma'am, are you dissatisfied with the homework just now? Can I hand it in again?"

"No, if you do this again I will ask Aunt Liu to bring Yun En in to sleep."

"Then have a good sleep." Ye Fan put her down, covered her with a blanket, and lay down on the bed himself. He hugged her and said, "Madam, I don't want you to have another child."

"Didn't we say we'd talk about this later?" It had been a long time since she had a good night's sleep in his arms.

"But it took you a long time to give birth to Yun En, and women always have to go through a near-death experience when giving birth. I'm a little scared."

"Then I won't give birth. I'll listen to my husband." She leaned into his arms.

Life went on just like that. The Gu family was constantly suppressed by the new president, and their business was shrinking. Gu Jinluo sent away many servants. Uncle Wu also died two years after Yun'en was born. After Yun'en was weaned, she also sent the wet nurse away and raised the child herself.

There have been frequent wars recently, and Ye Fan has been staying at the garrison for longer and longer periods of time. If the war continues to develop in this way, the garrison in Anjiang will inevitably have to go to the front line.

Gu Lang's life in Jinghua was not easy either. Although the arms still came from the Gu family, due to years of war, the military supplies were increasing, but the money earned was decreasing.

Seeing Ye Fan frowning about military affairs, Gu Jinluo was also worried while holding the child. This was not a solution. The children in the orphanage were sent to various families for adoption. Occasionally, they would receive letters from Jiang Yunran, which mostly talked about how many members their team had grown to, and occasionally talked about some difficult tasks.

Shen Zeqing's parents are getting older and older, and their minds are sometimes not clear. They always think that Yun'en is their grandson.

After coaxing Yun En to sleep, Gu Jinluo returned to the room and looked at Ye Fan pacing back and forth in the room and said, "I see you didn't eat much dinner tonight. Are you worried about something?"

"Hey, there have been frequent border battles recently. The garrison in Anjiang may have to go to the front line to provide support at any time."

Gu Jinluo pulled him to sit on the bed and comforted him: "It is a soldier's duty to go to the battlefield. It is very rare that you have been stationed in Anjiang for so many years. Whether you go or not, Yunen and I hope that you can return home safely every day."

"Madam, I am worried because of you and Yun'en. If I go to the battlefield and can't come back..."

Gu Jinluo quickly covered his mouth, "Don't say such things. Yun En will call me dad today. We can't let him disappear right after he learns to call, right?"

Ye Fan pushed her hair behind her ears and said, "No, even if I really go to the battlefield, I will definitely return home safely for you and Yun En."

Gu Jinluo hugged him and said, "Xingzhi, don't say such things in front of me again."

"Okay, I won't tell you anymore." Ye Fan patted her back to comfort her.

"Remember to come back safely. If you are leaving, remember to tell me and I will help you pack your luggage. Remember to bring your pocket watch with you and return it to me when you come back."

"I must tell you and Yun En before I leave." Ye Fan picked him up and laid him on the bed, covered him with a quilt, and said, "Sleep well."

Gu Jinluo put her arms around his neck and said, "Husband, do you... want to hand in your homework tonight?"

Ye Fan nestled his head in her chest and said, "I always took the initiative before, why are you taking the initiative tonight?"

"It's just... you talk nonsense, so I was thinking... maybe this will make you feel better." Gu Jinluo laughed out loud while talking, and Ye Fan also laughed.

"Who flirts like this? Do you have to?" Although Ye Fan was sometimes stiff, when his wife used this method on him, he hoped that she would put more thought into it.

"Well... forget it if you don't want it." She seldom took the initiative to begin with, and when she finally did, he thought she was too stiff.

"Haven't you danced in a while? Let's go to the study and have a bottle of red wine and dance. Do you want to?"

She thought about it, then nodded. Seeing her nod, Ye Fan got up, lifted the quilt, picked her up, and opened the door.

"Hey, hey, hey, shoes. You haven't put on your shoes yet." She patted his shoulder and asked him to get down.

"No, I just like you to dance on me, so that you can put your arms around my waist and get closer to me."

When they got to the study, Ye Fan put her on the sofa, turned on the phonograph, opened the wine cabinet, took out the red wine, poured it into two glasses, handed them to her, and they toasted and drank. Ye Fan pulled her up to dance.

"You've been so worried about the war these days that you haven't taken a good look at Yun En. When you come back from the garrison, you must go see him."

"Compared to Yun'en, I want to see my wife more." Since Yun'en was born, Ye Fan has become more dependent on his wife and always asks her about family matters.

"He can call me dad now, but you, as a father, don't know it."

"Madam, when I come back from the battlefield, do you think Yun En will still remember me as his father?"

"Of course, you are his father, remember to come back safely." Speaking of the battlefield, Gu Jinluo became sad. If he got injured and missed the chance, or something else happened like last time, all of these things would be unpredictable. She hugged him tightly unconsciously.

Noticing the change in her mood, Ye Fan said, "We're still here, why are you getting nervous?"

"You've been through life and death situations on the battlefield. How can I not be nervous?" Gu Jinluo wanted to cry as she spoke.

Ye Fan held her arm, wiped away her tears, hugged her and said, "This is the first time I see you so nervous about your husband."

“No matter where you are, remember to return home safely.”

"With your words, my lady, I will definitely return home safely." After saying that, he carried the person back to the room to hand in his homework.
