Chapter 381 A Closer Look at the Premarital Handbook
Time seemed to slow down, with only two loud "clank" sounds of stamping.
"Alright, congratulations, you're now a legally married couple. By the way, if you plan to have children, remember to apply for a birth permit. Only then will your baby be a legally planned birth; otherwise, it would be an illegal birth outside of the planned birth policy."
The staff member was organizing the documents, offering a friendly reminder with a smile.
Zhuang Tunan nodded and thanked him repeatedly, then quickly grabbed a handful of wedding candies from his schoolbag and gently placed them on the table.
"Thank you, please have some wedding candy."
In those days, birth control policies and related certifications were extremely important.
Pregnancy requires a certificate, childbirth requires a certificate, delivery requires a certificate, and even registering a child's household registration and handling grain rations all require various certificates, namely the four major certificates. Missing any one of them will cause big trouble. Children without a birth permit cannot register their household registration or attend school normally.
Zhang Wanshu put the two marriage certificates, which looked like they were wrapped in a protective case and covered with certificates of honor, into her schoolbag.
"Wait, there's this too, I almost forgot to give it to you."
A staff member handed me a premarital education manual.
Zhuang Tunan took the manual, his face flushed red, and he hurriedly stuffed it into his schoolbag.
The queue took an hour and a half, but the certificate was issued in just five minutes.
After leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhuang Tunan and Zhang Wanshu were not in a hurry to have a child. Zhang Wanshu had previously made it clear that she did not want to be tied down by a child while she was in school, so she did not go to apply for a birth permit.
As the two walked out of the registration hall, Zhuang Tunan's grin stretched almost to his ears. Unable to contain his excitement, he picked Zhang Wanshu up in a hug. "From now on, we're legally married! I'm so happy!"
Zhang Wanshu's cheeks flushed. Feeling the stares from the people queuing around her, she gently patted Zhuang Tunan's back. "Put me down quickly. Be careful in public. So many people are watching."
Zhuang Tunan reluctantly let go of her hand and leaned close to Zhang Wanshu's ear. "So, how about we find a secluded place where we don't have to be so reserved?"
The two continued walking forward, when Zhuang Tunan seemed to suddenly remember something and whispered a few words in Zhang Wanshu's ear.
Zhang Wanshu's face instantly turned bright red. "Tu Nan, I...I..."
Zhuang Tunan took her hand and, with Wan Shu's consent, led her to quicken her pace. Four years, four years! Tunan felt a mix of excitement, anticipation, anxiety, and fear.
Soon, they arrived at a hotel. When the hotel staff took their marriage certificate and ID cards, their eyes were scrutinizing.
After checking in, it cost fifty yuan per night.
Entering the room, Zhuang Tunan looked around and was quite satisfied. "Wanshu, this fifty yuan was well spent. Go take a shower first."
Then, he took out the premarital handbook from his bag.
Previously, when Lin Dongzhe and Pengfei were looking at this manual, he, as the eldest brother, was too embarrassed to join in and take a look.
At that moment, curiosity drove him to open the table of contents...
Upon opening the manual, the first thing he saw was an explanation of the main differences between men and women, followed by an introduction to the structure and function of female reproductive organs.
Scrolling down further, the table of contents lists common mindsets of both men and women on their wedding night, as well as how men can help women overcome fear and shyness and successfully navigate their first time as husband and wife.
Looking at the eye-catching descriptions in the catalog, he began to carefully read through the details.
The book's explanations were very scientific, but for some reason, they made his mouth dry. So he reached out and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, swallowed, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down noticeably, and then continued flipping through the pages.
The manual also provides detailed information on male contraception methods, making it very comprehensive.
The book also includes information on eugenics and prenatal care, precautions during pregnancy, and even prenatal and postnatal care.
He stared at it, his face flushed, completely losing track of time.
Zhang Wanshu dawdled into the bathroom, took off her clothes, and felt the hot water pouring over her head. She washed herself thoroughly from head to toe, dried herself off, pursed her lips, and tiptoed out. This moment had finally arrived.
She dried her hair with a towel, mustered her courage, and walked over. "Tunan, I'm done washing, you can go now."
Only then did she notice that Tu Nan was looking at the handbook issued by the Civil Affairs Bureau, so she urged him, "Tu Nan, stop looking at it and go take a shower."
Zhuang Tunan then came to his senses and quickly put down the book in his hand.
Looking at Wan Shu, who had just finished showering and exuded a fresh scent, he was filled with excitement. He quickly took off his coat, walked to the bathroom door, and peeked out. "Wait for me."
Tu Nan took off his underwear, quickly washed it, then brushed his teeth with a toothbrush, and breathed on his hands to smell them carefully.
He looked down and sniffed his armpits, determined to make a good impression on Wanshu today.
Sitting on the bed, Wan Shu picked up the book that Zhuang Tu Nan was reading with great interest. As she looked at the contents, her heart pounded violently as she thought about what Tu Nan was going to do to her later. It felt like her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
At this moment, her heart was filled with a mixture of curiosity, fear, and a faint sense of anticipation.
When Tu Nan came out of the bathroom, he saw Wan Shu looking at the book.
He gently sat down on the edge of the bed, took the book from Wan Shu's hands, and their eyes met, filled with deep affection. "Wan Shu..."
"Don't speak." She reached out and covered Tu Nan's mouth, feeling the warmth of her hand, before abruptly pulling her hand away.
Zhuang Tunan gently kissed her forehead, then slowly moved downwards until their lips met.
Everything seemed to happen so naturally, as if it were a natural progression.
Zhuang Tunan was so nervous that he completely forgot what the book had said, and all his actions were carried out naturally by the human instinct for reproduction.
Fortunately, he still keeps in mind the relevant knowledge about family planning.
. . . . . . . .
"Tunan, I'm so scared..."
"Don't be afraid, leave everything to me."
Half an hour later, it started to get into the swing of things.
At this moment, the two belonged to each other, perfectly united. The fusion of their souls and bodies allowed them to reach new heights. Zhuang Tunan held her close, knowing he would never let such a wonderful woman down in his life.
Promises are merely expressions of love at the time; they cannot withstand the test of time.
What he needs to do is make a promise to himself, a promise he speaks to his own heart, a promise he demands of himself. Promises made to others may seem somewhat contrived or unrealistic, so his vow is to stay true to his original aspirations and to willingly swear to his own heart.
He whispered in Wanshu's ear, his breath brushing against her neck. "Wanshu, I will always love you like this, forever..."
"Tunan, I love you."
"Wanshu, I love you even more."
