To put it simply, old Huntelaar was a little anxious.

From the perspective of being a grandfather, old Huntelaar is indeed a little anxious, although John and Anna got married earlier, but after all, it has been more than a year, but Anna's stomach has not moved, which can't help but make the old man a little anxious - he didn't say that he must hold his grandson so early, but if he doesn't get pregnant for so long, the old man is a little suspicious if there is something wrong with one of the two!

Old Huntelaar's worry made John a little speechless.

Having a child is something John hasn't thought about. In fact, John has been thinking about this since the day he got married. If in terms of age, he and Anna are indeed a little younger, and it is indeed a little early to have children, but from other perspectives, since they are married, it seems that it is not so important to have children early and later.

And......

In these days, let alone that there are no contraceptives, even if there are, there are clear regulations in other countries: it is a crime to use any contraceptive! It's okay to lock things in your own small house and not go out, but once you go out, you have to clean up!

In this era, it is common for people to have several children.

The lack of contraceptives, combined with the low status of women, resulted in the majority of married American women having a string of children, an average of eight or nine in the first half of the 19th century, and five or six in the first half of the 19th century. In fact, the pattern of Americans moving from living together as a large family to living alone in a small family, with seven or eight children to two children in a couple, has gone through a very long process, and the reasons for this are very complex......

So in this regard, John has always gone with the flow.

Now after the old Huntelaar mentioned this problem, he suddenly realized that it seemed that he had been married for more than a year. Anna has never been pregnant, which is indeed a bit unrealistic!

"Grandpa, I see what you mean."

After thinking about it, John could only smile and nod at old Huntelaar, indicating that he had taken this matter to heart.

As a grandfather, old Huntelaar is certainly not likely to dwell on this issue. Point to point. After a few small talks about the next week, old Huntelaar went out for a walk as usual. John, on the other hand, sat on the couch for a few more minutes before going upstairs with a wry smile.

When there are no social activities, life as a family is actually very simple.

Electric lights have only been around for a few years, there is no Internet, no television, and even the basic premise of broadcasting, radio, and there is basically no entertainment at night except for playing cards, reading books, and chatting. Normally, after dinner, John would go to the study to write something, and then talk to Anna for a while before resting. But let's talk to my grandfather today. He lost the interest in writing. It's just that he won't talk to Anna about this kind of thing, on the one hand, he is afraid that his wife will have any ideas, on the other hand, since the previous life, he has no obsession with whether he has children or not, and he will raise it in the future, and if he doesn't, he will live with his wife himself, at least for him now, it is no different......

……

Early the next morning, John was dragged out of bed by Anna.

According to normal habits. John would definitely wake up early on weekend mornings to play basketball with Suli. With the daily practice, the level of several of them gradually became a little better. At the same time, his interest in basketball has also increased day by day, and now he has a little fun playing it.

But today's words......

"Anna, it's not going to go horseback riding again, is it?"

While getting dressed, John asked with a bitter face. In his opinion, Anna has become obsessed with horseback riding, and goes to the horse farm with her friends at least once or twice a week. In order to make her happy, John bought her two good horses, one male and one female. But for him, he really didn't understand what was so fun about riding a horse, and he really couldn't stand the smell of horses, even before every visit. The servants would clean up the two horses, and John could always smell the stench.

"Of course not!"

Pouting, Anna said a little unhappily: "You said that you don't like horseback riding, of course I won't arrange such an occasion...... Hum! ”

"Oh, that's sorry."

John was amused when he heard this, and quickly coaxed his little wife. Unlike other men of this era, although John has traveled more than 20 years, he still retains the habits of more than 100 years later, so he treats his wife quite considerately. Most of the time, the relationship between the two is very casual, and after getting along like this, the relationship is getting deeper and deeper.

After a few words of coaxing, Anna's expression quickly turned back.

"A friend of mine has just returned from his honeymoon in Europe and asked us to get together."

Anna blinked her big eyes and said with a grin, "And she also wants to introduce her husband to us...... In addition, the theme of today's gathering is painting, John, your own sketching skills are already good, and you have asked someone to buy a lot of works from Europe in the past two years, you should like this kind of occasion, right? “

"Uh......"

After hearing Anna's words, John was slightly stunned, and his face suddenly turned rare red.

In the past two years, because of the "study" of anatomy and the preparation of textbooks for medical school, John usually practiced sketching, and he may indeed have some talent in this area, and his sketching skills have increased rapidly. And in order not to regret his future, he did ask someone to buy a lot of paintings in Europe, especially in Paris, the art center of this era. Of course, the target was mainly focused on the impressionist painters Van Gogh, Cézanne, and Gauguin. After all, the style of their works has not been widely accepted now, especially Van Gogh, until last year, before the wet wet almost all those works were cabbage prices, John picked his own impression of the collection of a lot, if it wasn't for the fact that these people's fame still needs others to hype, he can even buy all the paintings in one go!

But......

It's kind of funny to say that John liked to draw because of that.

Since the beginning of his previous life, this kid basically has no artistic cells, let alone likes art. In fact, in addition to watching popular blockbusters, he rarely listens to pop music, learning sketching is to draw anatomical structures, and buying oil paintings is because the current masterpieces are too cheap, and if he doesn't buy them, his heart is unbalanced!

So as soon as he heard Anna's words, John suddenly lost a little interest.

But it was impossible to say that he didn't want to go at this time, and our Mr. Huntelaar could only cheer up and say with a smile: "That's great, I can't wait to meet your friends......" (To be continued. )
