Chapter 1389 An Unexpected Joy

When Zhang Yurong heard that she was receiving a call, she was a little puzzled. Who would call at this hour? "Hello, this is Zhang Yurong. Who is this?"

"Yu Rong, I am your sister-in-law."

"Sister-in-law, why are you calling?"

"Well, your older brother just called and said that your fourth sister-in-law is pregnant with triplets. I was just thinking of going to visit her. Would you like to come along?"

Upon hearing the word "triplets," Zhang Yurong's mind went blank: "What? Triplets? How is that possible?"

Guo Wenjing didn't expect her third sister-in-law to react like this: "Third sister-in-law, are you alright?"

Zhang Yurong then realized that she had lost her composure. Seeing that everyone in the office was looking at her, she quickly tried to make amends, saying, "It's nothing. I was just shocked. After all, I only found out yesterday that she was pregnant with multiple children, and today she has triplets."

Guo Wenjing knew her well: "Do you want to come along?"

Zhang Yurong naturally didn't want to go, but she couldn't refuse outright: "Sister-in-law, my workplace is quite busy lately, and it might be difficult to get leave. But it's not good to delay too long either. Why don't you go first, and I'll go when I have time off?"

Guo Wenjing naturally wouldn't insist: "Alright, I'll ask your second sister-in-law later to see if she wants to come along. I'll hang up now."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yurong looked very upset. She couldn't understand why she couldn't get pregnant, even though she had been to the hospital for a checkup and everything was normal.

Triplets, three children, why is God so unfair? Why couldn't one of them be in her belly?

Then the Xiao family also received a call. After getting off work that evening, Xiao Wanxia went straight to her parents' house: "Mom, have you heard about Chuxue's triplets?"

Aunt Xiao laughed: "Your dad just told me that your second aunt is taking care of her baby and it's inconvenient for her to come over this weekend. It's such a happy occasion, our family should at least show up, right?"

As the mother and daughter were talking, they heard someone outside call out, "Haitang, you have a phone call."

Well, Chu Xue had no idea that her pregnancy with triplets had actually generated revenue for the post and telecommunications industry.

Aunt Xiao took off her apron and threw it into her daughter's arms: "Go check on the dishes on the stove, I'll go answer the phone."

The voice of Xiao Nianchun, the sister-in-law, came from the other end of the phone: "Sister-in-law, you know that Chuxue is pregnant with triplets, right?"

Aunt Xiao hummed in agreement: "I was just talking about this with Wan Xia, thinking of going to see her this weekend."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nianchun quickly replied, "My second brother called back to our clan's territory, and my mother even called to ask me to go there."

After discussing it, the two happily decided to visit the military base together on Sunday.

The person everyone was thinking about was currently sitting on a rocking chair in the yard, grinning foolishly.

She never expected to be so lucky today, being recommended to the Ministry of Machine Building by Engineer Gu. And coincidentally, the Ministry of Machine Building had a batch of technical journals and patent documents that needed professional translation. Hearing that she had previously translated instruction manuals for imported equipment at a steel rolling mill, they directly invited her to come for an interview.

After several rounds of interviews and written tests, and even some people communicating with her directly in English and German, she eventually became an unofficial staff member of the First Ministry of Machine Building.

Originally, they wanted her to work in the office, but she tactfully explained her situation. After discussion among the leaders, they registered her and made her an unofficial translator for the Ministry of Machinery Industry. They also issued her a temporary work permit in case of emergency.
