On New Year's Day, Su Meixi had the day off today, and Gu Wei didn't have to return to the military camp.
The two slept in before finally getting up to make a pack of frozen dumplings for breakfast.
In Feng City, eating dumplings on New Year's Day is a tradition. Although they are now in Yun City, the habit remains.
The morning was very quiet, with only the sporadic sound of firecrackers from afar.
The quietest place was their home.
Although they seldom saw each other, they had been married for a long time now. While other families gathered together in celebration, their house remained cold and empty.
As Su Meixi ate her dumplings, she said, "I feel like we should have a child."
Gu Wei immediately nodded, "Indeed."
"But, we haven't been practicing birth control recently, so why don't we have a child?" Su Meixi began to doubt whether she was infertile.
