“Grandma Li, has Madam felt any better today?” Han Yu asked about Su Wenyue the moment he came back, which had become a daily necessity.
Grandma Li shook her head, her face also filled with concern, “It’s still the same, she vomits after eating. Madam fears that eating too little will not provide enough nutrients for the child in her stomach, so after vomiting, she continues to eat, hoping that some nutrition will remain for the child. I find it hard to bear seeing Madam struggle so much.”
Getting pregnant was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but it posed such a great danger to his daughter-in-law. He had only learned from the doctor that considering the young age of his daughter-in-law, suffering during pregnancy was inevitable, especially with twins, the risk was even greater. Had he known, he never would have let his daughter-in-law get pregnant so early. Compared to having children, he could not bear the risk of losing his daughter-in-law. It had only been a little over four months, and there was almost five months left until the children’s birth. If it continued like this, his daughter-in-law’s body would not be able to withstand it, and even if the children were born safely, her health would be ruined.
Han Yu’s expression grew more solemn, but when he entered the room, he immediately put on a gentle face, smiling upon seeing his daughter-in-law looking over from the bed.
“How do you feel today? Any better? Are the children in your stomach behaving?” Even though he had already asked Grandma Li, he would always ask Su Wenyue again every time.
“I feel a bit better today. I guess it’s because the children in my stomach know their mother has a hard time, so they have been good. Husband, you have enough trouble with your daily duties at the military camp, don’t worry about me. With so many servant girls and old women taking care of me, I’m doing well,” Su Wenyue also said cheerfully. The more difficult things got day by day, the less she wanted to act spoiled and petulant with Han Yu. She didn’t want to worry him or add to his burden, knowing he also had a tough time in the military camp. Despite this, he insisted on coming back every day, worrying about her. He looked thinner because of these days.
Han Yu had never thought his daughter-in-law to be so considerate and sensible, yet it pained him greatly. She was bearing such a hardship with the pregnancy, yet she comforted him because she was afraid he would worry. He would rather have her complain to him and act a little spoiled like before, so he could pamper her. It was the least he could do for her.
“That’s good. You’re having such a tough time with them, if those two little guys dare to trouble you, just wait until they come out—I’ll spank their little bottoms.” Han Yu reached out to touch Su Wenyue’s stomach, his gaze growing even more complex.
“By the way, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and I want to discuss with you the matter of distributing holiday gifts. I have prepared most of them, but I’m not so clear about the relationships in the camp, so I need your input to get it right, lest giving too much or too little causes embarrassment.”
Han Yu didn’t know whether to praise his daughter-in-law for being virtuous when she was worrying about the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts in her condition, or to tell her not to bother wasting her energy on such concerns.
