Chapter 271: Indifferent Huo Haocheng
But seeing these two people coming together, I guess something must have happened.
"Come in and sit down. I'll get you some water."
Seeing that there were beads of sweat on their heads, I thought that they were really trying hard to catch up with me.
Soon, he poured out three glasses of water, one for each of them, and the remaining glass was for himself. He had just been in a hurry to come back and was quite tired.
"Tell me, what's the matter with you coming here?"
"We're not looking for you now, we're looking for your wife. By the way, where's your wife? Is she out?" They had been here for two minutes, and they had been talking the whole time. If Ruan Ruan was at home, she should have come out long ago.
"...My wife is very sleepy now. She may not be awake yet. Please wait a moment. I will go and call her."
As the months went by, Ruan Ruan became more and more sleepy. Now she basically sleeps more than ten hours a day. Sometimes she sleeps too much in the afternoon and does not go to bed until eleven or twelve at night, but she can sleep until noon again. At first, Huo Haocheng thought she had some disease, but after observing her for a while and Ruan Ruan also checked herself, he was relieved to confirm that it was a reaction to pregnancy.
"Wife, wake up, Xuyang and Brother Chen are here to see you."
With the experience of calling people during this period, he only needed to say a few words in her ear, and then when he saw her move, he would immediately pick her up, and she would wake up in a short while.
After she woke up, he told her that Zheng Xuyang and Chen Liang came to see her and were in the main room.
Knowing that they were coming, Ruan Ruan got down from his arms, tidied her clothes and hair, and followed him out.
"Brother Xuyang, Brother Chen, what's the matter with you coming to see me?"
"Tomorrow is the day when the beams of the school and family buildings will be capped. We thought that as the boss and founder, you should be there, so we came here to tell you."
Originally, they had a good idea. They were still excited when they thought about Ruan Ruan’s speech at the annual meeting. However, when they saw her now, they didn’t know if she was in good health enough to go up and give a speech.
It was also the first time for them to see a pregnant woman sleep so well.
"So soon? I thought it would be great if it could be finished before July, but it was a month earlier than expected!" Before, she planned to finish the work in July, and then she could discuss with her uncle and ask Mayor Guo to start mobilizing people. She could directly negotiate with the bookstore to buy study books and extracurricular readings, but she still needed to find the art troupe to coordinate with for musical instruments. It was suddenly a month earlier, but school started in September, and she still had more than three months to prepare, so she was not in time.
"Didn't Huo Haocheng tell you? When he came to see us that day, the construction was almost finished. The supermarket was also completed a long time ago. Time has been getting longer and longer recently. In order to have our own house as soon as possible, everyone worked overtime to build it, so it was completed so early."
Speaking of this, Zheng Xuyang was also very happy. The completion of the house meant that his wedding date would be soon and the burden on him would be lightened. God knows how he had managed to get through this period of time.
Every day I either check with Chen Liang whether there are enough materials, or check various accounts with the finance department.
Now that the house and the school are completed, the next thing is the assignment and the transfer of school teachers. These things are trivial compared to the previous ones.
When Ruan Ruan heard what Zheng Xuyang said, she looked at Huo Haocheng. Seeing a question mark on his face, she knew that he had focused all his energy on herself during this period and must have forgotten about the house.
"Okay, what time tomorrow?" Although she said yes, she was unsure and didn't know if she could get up.
"I asked someone to check it out. Tomorrow morning 10 o'clock is a good time." Seeing that she asked about the time, Chen Liang thought that she should be able to attend. Thinking of how she had asked him to find someone to check the place before, he also asked that person to quietly calculate the time this time.
In fact, when he first came into contact with this industry, he did not have so many taboos. After all, feudal superstition is now severely cracked down on. But later, after encountering more things and meeting more people, he gradually adapted to the local customs.
"10 o'clock. OK, I got it. I will be there on time tomorrow morning."
She calculated the time and it was just right for her to get up after Huo Haocheng came back from morning training. However, her head still hurt when she thought about sacrificing her morning sleep time.
"Okay then, we've delivered our message. We won't disturb you any more and we'll go back first." The two of them stood up and were about to go out.
"Hey, since you are here, have dinner first and then go back!" Ruan Ruan didn't expect them to leave after saying that. They are not outsiders here, so how could she let them come and not eat and just go back like that?
"We won't have dinner. It's not convenient for you now. Have a good rest. We'll have plenty of time later."
They thought very clearly that Ruan Ruan had just gotten up, so the meal must not have been prepared yet. And considering her current physical condition, the meal must be prepared by Huo Haocheng. He had been training all day, and he had to cook for them when he came back. They felt bad about it, but forget it. They had not planned to eat at their house when they came.
When she heard them asking her to have a good rest, Ruan Ruan still didn't understand. She had just woken up, so why did they ask her to rest? If she rested, she really wouldn't have to sleep at night.
While she was still thinking about it, Huo Haocheng had already sent them out of the yard.
"Okay, you can go back now. No need to see me off. Taking care of your wife is more important." With these words, the two of them went back talking and laughing without looking back.
After Huo Haocheng sent them back, Ruan Ruan pulled him aside and asked, "Just now, did they misunderstand something? Did they see me getting up so late and think that I was not feeling well after getting pregnant?"
Huo Haocheng didn't think about what they said just now, but after his wife reminded him, he came to his senses.
"Forget it, let them think whatever they want. You must be hungry. I'll go cook first. You sit down and rest for a while. I'll be ready soon."
Huo Haocheng said that he didn't care what they thought about this matter. If thinking this way could make them come to his wife less often, then that would be fine.
However, Huo Haocheng never expected that such a simple idea of his would be broken by Zheng Xuyang. After Zheng Xuyang and Chen Liang returned to the factory, Huo Haoshen and others were waiting for them.
Normally they had their three meals a day at the factory before going back. The reason they wanted to wait for them today was to ask about Ruan Ruan's health. After learning that Ruan Ruan was pregnant, they found time to visit her, but the factory was too busy during this period and they hadn't been able to go. Today, Zheng Xuyang finally found time to go over, and they hadn't finished the work in their hands, so they could only wait for him to come back and tell them about his recent situation.
So during the meal, after learning that Ruan Ruan was not in good health and had been bedridden, Huo Haoshen could no longer sit still. He put down his chopsticks and ran back to the office to call home.
