Chapter 73: 串门 Visit (Somebody's home)

On the first day of the Chinese New Year, the atmosphere was a little milder than on Chinese New Year's Eve, but the cheerfulness was still preserved.

Zhao Zheng'an and Zhong Ziqi naturally still had dumplings for breakfast, which were stuffed with pickled vegetables so Zhong Ziqi was able to eat it. Zhao Zheng'an didn't dislike eating dumplings stuffed with pickled vegetables, and he ate them with relish.

After eating, Zhao Zheng'an tidied up the whole house and saw that Zhong Ziqi was bored so he proposed to go for a walk to Zhao Amu's house. Naturally Zhong Ziqi agreed, he was bored to death.

After Zhao Zheng'an wrapped Zhong Ziqi up thickly, then two of them went to Zhao Amu's house to visit their home. The four or five members of Zhao Amu's family were sitting on the heatable brick bed, eating delicious food while chatting.

"Ziqi, you two are here! Come up and warm up on the kang bed (heatable brick bed)!" Zhao Ahmu got up and greeted them.

Zhong Ziqi smiled and sat on the kang, "Didn't Brother Sheng and Ning Ge'er say that they were going back (to An Ning's house) last time?"

An Ning smiled shyly at him.

"It's because the in-laws said that we shouldn't toss the kids back and forth during the New Year. It's the same if they go back on the third or fourth day of the Chinese New year." He also didn't want the two children to spend the New Year over there, they had just gotten married and wanted them to spend the New Year together with him at home.

"That also makes sense." Zhong Ziqi nodded.

"How are you doing these days? Are you feeling better? Did you vomit a lot?" Zhao Amu asked with concern.

Zhong Ziqi nodded, "Quite good."

Zhao Zheng'an shook his head next to him: "What's 'quite good'? He vomits every day, he vomits whatever he eats. Whatever is the least nutritious, he could eat it."

Zhao Amu laughed: "We've all been through this, let him eat what he can eat, just don't starve. When I gave birth to our family, Zhao Sheng, it was just the time of living apart and separated from the main family. Our family was especially poor, we had nothing at all. We had to tighten the waist of our trousers if we wanted to eat some meat. I was also vomiting whatever I ate at that time but I loved to eat sour food. I could even eat rice soaked in vinegar. Every day besides porridge, I also ate salted vegetables (pickles) but you can see that our Zhao Sheng is also very strong, nothing happened."

An Ning heard Amu talking about his husband and couldn't help but poke him quietly, Zhao Sheng moved his body and gave him a silly smile.

Zhong Ziqi touched his own stomach: "I don't think it's a big deal either, it's quite good to eat porridge and salted vegetables."

Zhao Zheng'an, however, disagreed: "The divine doctor told me that his body is weak now. He needs to mend and take supplements regularly or else his body will get an ailment in the future."

"That's right, you need to take the supplement. It's hard to give birth when you're weak. You won't have the strength."

Zhao Amu had given birth to two children and knew the pain of childbirth the best. If the body was weak, then he would not have the strength. Therefore the child would not come out, the longer the time, it would be more dangerous.

Zhong Ziqi was a person who was afraid of pain. It could be seen from the fact that he had been hesitant to have intercourse with Zhao Zheng'an, therefore now when he heard the frightening moment of giving birth from Zhao Amu, he thought about that heartbreaking scenes he had seen on TV in his previous life ,he couldn't help but shudder a little.
