Xu Jingjing hadn't contacted Xu Xiuxiu since she returned to her hometown, and due to her physical condition, Xu Xiuxiu rarely contacted her family. Song Yuanhuan would call home every month to report that he was safe and sound, and he had also informed them about Xu Xiuxiu's pregnancy. The elders at home all told him just to take good care of Xu Xiuxiu, and not to worry too much about other family matters.
Unlike Xu Xiuxiu, Song Yuanhuan wasn't as meticulous or sensitive. He devoted all his attentiveness and concern to Xu Xiuxiu, constantly worrying whether his pregnant wife felt cold, hot, hungry, or tired. Therefore, he hardly paid attention to the matters back home unless he was making a routine call to check in, during which he would briefly chat with Xu Xiuxiu. Most of his conversations were with Xu Xiuxiu, discussing their child's name or how to style their daughter's hair in little braids in the future.
