"Why don't I just let Old Song retire together? With the two of us here, are you still worried that we can't take good care of you? Jingfeng, let him go on the mission without worry. His father and I are at home!"

Seeing that she was getting more and more exaggerated, Xu Zhixia quickly stopped her, "Mom, I can take care of myself, why should I make such a fuss? The country needs top talents like you, and if you retire early, isn't that a loss for ordinary people?

Xiaoyan will be back soon. If she feels uncomfortable, I will go to find her. I am already such a big person, are you still worried about me being alone at home?"

Qin Huan said sincerely: "After you marry me, you will be my daughter. Jing Tian is pregnant. I didn't say it on my face, but I was worried in my heart. I was afraid that something bad would happen to her during the mission.

Just like her father, I can't persuade her either. Fortunately, there is Lu Li who can take good care of her. Jing Feng is not at home, and my mother is an experienced person and can help out."

Xu Zhixia insisted: "Mom, you should go to work and earn some money for the baby's milk powder. Brother Song's allowance is not enough to support the family expenses.

"With Xiaoyan here, everything is safe. If you retire early, the people in the hospital will laugh their teeth off. I'm not that precious."

"Okay, pregnant women are the most important. I'll listen to you. If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me. Everything is based on you.

Let's go, after we get the medicine, we'll go back and inform Lao Song and Jing Feng, and let's all be happy together. Xiao Yan will be here soon, so let Jing Feng drive to pick her up."

Xu Zhixia responded obediently: "Okay, mother."

The two of them took the medicine and returned the same way. The staff in the family compound smiled when they saw her happy face.

The one who was eating melon seeds couldn't control his mouth and shouted, "Lao Qin, where are you going? Look at your mouth, you can hardly close your smile. What's going on? Did you find some money? How much is it? Everyone who sees it gets a share!"

Qin Huan knew she was joking, and said cheerfully, "I'm happier than finding money."

Seeing Xu Zhixia beside her, some people guessed, "Is she taking her to the hospital for a checkup? Is she pregnant?"

These words were like a thunderclap, exploding with a crackling sound, and everyone was stunned.

Xu Zhixia was a capitalist lady after all, so she said calmly, "Sister-in-law, you must have been blessed with good words. It's just as you said, I'm pregnant."

Someone grumbled in dissatisfaction, "She has a thin waist and a small butt. Is she pregnant with a girl? You and Commander Song both have jobs. How can you pass on your family line without a male child?"

Qin Huan knew someone would throw cold water on her, so she immediately fought back, "It's said that women hold up half the sky, but you still favor boys over girls? In my opinion, some men are worse than women.

It's good to have a girl, she will love her parents, be filial and well-behaved. The barbecued pork you raised hasn't come back for a few years, and the good ones have moved out, haven't they?"

The person who said this blushed and didn't dare to confront her. "Qin Huan, but the director of the hospital has offended her. What if she makes things difficult for me when I go to the hospital in the future?"

You can offend anyone, but you must not offend doctors and soldiers.

Qin Huan said loudly: "Don't say anything I don't like to hear. If she gives birth to a daughter, it will be our lifeblood. In the future, we will find a live-in son-in-law for her, and she can let her have children.

My Song family is just a lowly family, we don't have so many requirements, your family has a lot of gold and silver, do you want to give it to your son as an inheritance?"

A few words left them speechless. As soon as Qin Huan pulled Xu Zhixia away, they started talking at once.

"Bah, she's not allowed to say it. I must have touched her sore spot. Could it be... that the baby is a girl? She's the director of the hospital. If she wants to know the gender of the baby, isn't it just a matter of asking?"

"She said it with such confidence. Who doesn't want a son? If she really wants to have a daughter, she won't be happy. Why is she pretending like Jiang Yan?"

"She worships the daughter of a capitalist like an ancestor. Everyone would say that she is a cowardly mother-in-law. If she gives birth to another money-losing child, she will have to accept it with a pinch of her nose."

"It's just nice to say that men and women are the same. Boys are the backbone of the family. Xu Zhixia is too small to give birth to a son."

"It's no wonder she came here to enjoy life. In the countryside, she has Song Jingfeng to work for her. She's like an old man. She even has to have her meals delivered to her bed. She's so blessed."

"The old ladies in my family who are in their seventies and eighties are not as delicate as her. The Song family is too pampered. If this daughter-in-law is not beaten, she will go to the roof and tear down the tiles.

In the past, people said Jiang Yan was lazy, and Xu Zhixia was even worse. All newly married people were led astray by her. Don’t let people say that all the sisters-in-law in our hospital are lazy and like to eat. This is a bad trend. I have to tell the director about it.”

As expected of Jiang Yan, he was introduced here. Only Song Jingfeng could tolerate him imitating others.

I used to ignore women and was very picky, but I didn’t expect to end up with such a lazy person.

There is something wrong with his background, and it also affects his promotion!

Aunt Hu came back with a basket on her shoulder. When she heard what they said, she rolled up her sleeves, put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "You guys have dirty mouths. People come here to live their own lives behind closed doors. You are bothering them!

Don't just leave it there and feel sour because you can't eat it yourself. If you have the time to spare, take care of your man and baby. Pregnancy is a good thing, why are you so crap?

If you have the guts, you can say it in front of Qin Huan. You are a bunch of cowards who only talk behind his back. "

Fearing that she would go to Qin Huan to complain, two of them said with a wry smile, "Big sister, we were just joking. It's just that Xu Zhixia is too lazy and we can't stand it.

If everyone in the courtyard follows her example, how will we live? My wife has to climb over our heads and shit on us. I finally become a mother-in-law, but in the end, I still have to look after her face. I might as well hang myself.”

Aunt Hu snorted coldly, not giving her any face at all, "You are living a bad life, which means your man is incompetent. You don't look for your man, but you are jealous of those who are living a good life.

What! You are happy only when everyone is as unlucky as you! I think you are sick.

If I hear you say something nonsense, I will report you to the political commissar. You are really busy now."

After saying that, she walked towards her home. Those people looked at each other, afraid of affecting their men, and went back to their own homes in a swarm! "

Hu Xiaoyi saw her coming back, his face beaming with joy, and asked, "Old Xia, what good thing happened? Look how happy you are."

Aunt Hu put the basket on the stove and started rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, "Zhixia is pregnant, we just found out, and she hasn't taken the malted milk powder yet, so I'll send her a few cans.

By the way, everyone after Zhixia got married, what about our Xueer, why is there no movement in your belly? Could it be...!"

"Won't."

Hu Xiaoyi's face darkened as he said firmly, "Tell me about yourself, how do you act as a mother? Can you listen to the nonsense that people in the courtyard say? Our Xue'er is in good health.

There's nothing wrong with Xiaoyan, it's just that the time for a baby hasn't come yet. Don't think too much about that. If a woman is anxious, she won't get pregnant. You've ruined her mentality, so don't blame me for being harsh."

Aunt Hu glared at him: "She is my daughter, how can I not hope that she will get better? Don't be shy about seeing a doctor if you are sick, how can you get better without seeing a doctor? Am I not worried about her and Xiaoyan?

How can you get married without a baby? One or two years is fine, but after a few more years, will Lu Yan have the patience to coax her? Which man can tolerate not having a baby! It's just nice words."
