Huang Qinquian, as her name implies, was expected by her parents to grow up diligent, becoming a hardworking person.
But reality often differs from expectations. Among Huang's family'...
puff!
Seeing him like this, Huang Qinqin couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, hahaha, stay away from me, you're disgusting, hahaha."
Xu Junhui's voice was originally very magnetic, but when he spoke in a strained tone, Huang Qinqin got goosebumps.
Seeing Huang Qinqin finally smile, Xu Junhui breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her with some grievance: "It's your fault for ignoring me."
"Honey, if you think I did something wrong, just tell me. Don't stay silent like you did just now, it really scares me."
Huang Qinqin looked at him with some heartache and said, "Junhui, you really don't need to make yourself suffer so much for me. From the time I got pregnant until now, I really feel that you have suffered much more than I have."
“I just saw you talking to your parents about whether or not you should go to work. It made me really sad.”
“Didn’t we already agree on this? We’ll ask my second aunt and my mother to help us take care of the children, and then we’ll pay them.”
Why would you even have the idea of not going to work and staying home to take care of the children?
Xu Junhui looked at Huang Qinqin, feeling conflicted, unsure whether he should tell her the truth.
Huang Qinqin, however, anticipated his thoughts and said seriously, "Don't lie to me. Tell me, what are you thinking? I want to hear why you suddenly had this idea."
Xu Junhui had no choice but to honestly say, "I didn't actually want to stay at home to take care of the children."
“I’m just worried about your safety because your belly is getting bigger and bigger, and I’m afraid something might happen to you when I’m not by your side.”
“A few nights ago, I had a nightmare. I dreamt that you were working at a department store when someone accidentally bumped into you, and you fell to the ground and bled a lot.”
“After that day, I thought, if I didn’t have a job, could I be by your side 24 hours a day? That way, this kind of accident would definitely not happen.”
Xu Junhui knew that his ideas were somewhat unrealistic.
But he just couldn't control himself. He felt very anxious and panicked lately, and he didn't dare let Huang Qinqin find out because he was afraid she would worry.
Huang Qinqin then realized why Xu Junhui had been so nervous lately. She took his hand and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, dreams and reality are often the opposite."
"Besides, I'm not a salesperson anymore. I basically sit in the office all day, so it's almost impossible for me to have any contact with customers."
"You see, I always tell you in advance if I'm going to the village this afternoon, so don't be afraid."
"Although pregnancy and childbirth are tough and dangerous, it's really not as scary as you think. You're just scaring yourself."
Xu Junhui sighed softly, and with mixed feelings, he hugged Huang Qinqin in his arms, saying in a relaxed tone, "I understand, I won't have that thought again."
"After hearing what you said, I'm not so scared anymore. It's getting late, you should take a nap. We still have to go to Xujia Village and Huangjia Village this afternoon."
However, where Huang Qinqin couldn't see, Xu Junhui still had a worried expression; there was still something he hadn't told Huang Qinqin.
More than two weeks ago, Zhang Yumei asked the doctor about cesarean sections at the hospital.
Almost every night, Xu Junhui would dream that Huang Qinqin's stomach was cut open, bloody, and then the doctor would tell him that the only thing they could do now was save the baby, because the baby would not survive if the stomach was cut open.
Xu Junhui was so frightened that he dared not sleep almost every night.
He also secretly asked many married people with children, wanting to know if it was very dangerous for women to give birth.
When I asked ten people, eight of them said: Isn't childbirth something women are born with?
They said they hadn't paid much attention; they were just happy that the baby was born safely. They also said that if even childbirth was difficult, it must be because the woman was in poor health.
After hearing this, Xu Junhui felt really sorry for their wives and decided to stay away from these people in the future.
After all, if they show such disrespect to their wives who have worked so hard to bear their children, how well can they treat their friends?
The remaining people all said the same thing to Xu Junhui: "It's definitely dangerous! My wife was in pain for a whole day and night before she gave birth to the baby."
"It was dangerous. When my wife gave birth, her screams were so pitiful that my legs went weak outside the delivery room."
"It was dangerous. After my wife gave birth, she was so pale, lying on the bed covered in sweat, completely still. I almost thought something had happened to her!"
The thought of their words made Xu Junhui even more anxious. However, he concealed it well, so none of his family members realized that he was hiding something.
Even though Xu Junhui looked haggard because he hadn't slept well, he brushed it off by saying that Huang Qinqin had to get up at night and he was worried about her, so he woke up with her.
......
After finishing his conversation with the leader, Manager Gao rode his bicycle towards Huangjia Village.
He thought Huang Qinqin would be there when he arrived at Huangjia Village, but to his surprise, she arrived even later than him.
Manager Gao waited in Huangjia Village for more than half an hour before he saw Xu Junhui arrive with Huang Qinqin.
He looked at Huang Qinqin with some displeasure: "Why are you so late? I remember you didn't go back to the department store this afternoon."
Manager Gao arrived full of enthusiasm, but when he got there, neither the brigade secretary nor Village Chief Huang, whom he knew, were in the workshop.
He didn't know the way to the brigade office, and he was too embarrassed to ask the villagers in the workshop, so he just squatted at the workshop entrance for more than half an hour.
Manager Gao is now filled with resentment.
Huang Qinqin was also a little surprised to see Manager Gao: "Hello, Manager Gao, what brings you here?"
“I just came from Xujia Village. I was thinking that the pickled vegetables here are all ready-made, but we need to redesign the packaging before we can pack them.”
"I'll go to Xujia Village first, explain things to them, and then come to Huangjia Village."
"Manager Gao, is there some change in the order that's brought you here now?"
After hearing Huang Qinqin's words, Manager Gao realized that he had misunderstood him.
Because of George's sudden additional order and the promised Canton Fair slots from the leadership, Manager Gao completely forgot that George had also ordered bamboo cups.
