Tang Yiwei was shopping for clothes with Tang Nuona when Sun Xiuhua and Ye Zhaozhao went over to say hello.

Tang Nuona took a fancy to a red coat, and Tang Yiwei bought it without saying a word.

Since Tang Nuona started working, she has been handing over her entire monthly salary to Tang Yiwei.

It was said to be to help Tang Yiwei with her household expenses, but Tang Yiwei saved all this money for her as a dowry when she got married.

"Is something going on with Nona?"

Sun Xiuhua could tell from the fact that they bought this coat, and then she noticed the happy look on the two sisters' faces.

Tang Yiwei nodded, not forgetting to thank Sun Xiuhua.

"Sister-in-law Sun, I really have to thank you for this."

"Why are you thanking me?"

Sun Xiuhua was confused, and then Tang Yiwei said that the person who was going to marry Tang Nuona was their school's teacher, Ms. Xia.

Sun Xiuhua remembered that he used to have a fiancée.

"His fiancée came to the military region once and then went back. Teacher Xia plans to stay here from now on."

She didn't want to marry into such a remote military region.

Tang Yiwei explained that later, Teacher Xia met Tang Nuona again, and the two of them became friends.

Sun Xiuhua thought that this was a lucky accident.

"No need to thank me, it's just that Teacher Xia kept it from me very well. Has the date been set?"

Tang Yiwei nodded and said she would ask Ye Zhaozhao and Sun Xiuhua to come later.

The four of them met and left together. After buying their things, they went to get in the shopping car.

I ran into Xia Lan on the bus. Xia Lan was on her way to call her cousin today.

My cousin was overjoyed when she learned that Ling Zhihui had introduced her to a regimental commander.

Thinking that she would be the regimental commander's wife from now on, she would no longer have to put up with Ling Zhihui's attitude.

Her mind was already filled with images of the wonderful life she would have after marrying the regimental commander.

She couldn't wait to go home and pack her bags, just waiting for her cousin to tell her that she was going to the military region.

As for the fact that others look down on her, she never even considered it.

Looking around, she was the most beautiful woman in the village; the only reason he wouldn't be interested in her was because he was blind.

Xia Lan felt a little uneasy knowing that Ling Zhihui had introduced her to the group leader.

Ling Zhihui comforted her, saying that even if she married the regimental commander, her cousin would still be that illiterate and uncouth person, how could she compare to her? Xia Lan was thus appeased.

"Oh dear, where did this sow come from? You scared me!"

Everyone laughed when she said that, because the sow she was referring to was none other than a pig.

It was Xia Lan, and Xia Lan herself didn't know why.

Since becoming pregnant, her appetite has become enormous, and she simply cannot control herself.

As a result of her getting fatter and fatter, Xia Lan's face immediately fell.

How dare you speak to me like that?

The man saw that she was angry but didn't say anything. Ye Zhaozhao didn't expect Xia Lan's belly to be so big.

Sun Xiuhua also found it strange; could it really be twins in her belly?

Just then, the driver slammed on the brakes, and everyone was thrown forward uncontrollably.

Xia Lan, who was holding things in both hands, lost her balance and fell onto another person.

As luck would have it, this person was the same one who had just called her a sow. She felt like she was about to be turned into a meat pie.

He shoved Xia Lan away.

"You're still not convinced when I call you a sow? You're going to break my back."

Xia Lan hadn't expected this. She covered her stomach with both hands, and several people quickly pulled her up.

One of them shook his arm and looked at Xia Lan with disdain.

"What did you eat? You're so heavy."

Xia Lan felt ashamed and looked at her body, thinking that she must have become like this because of her pregnancy.

She'll regain her figure after giving birth to her son.

The driver quickly apologized to the military wives behind him, saying that there was someone lying in front of them.

After the driver got out and rescued the person, someone recognized the woman.

"Isn't this Tian Yu from Shuigouzi Village?"

When the woman recognized her, everyone looked at her, and she explained it to them.

Shuigouzi Village is near their military region; they had seen it before when they went up the mountain to pick mushrooms.

How did she get here?

Ye Zhaozhao looked at the woman on the ground and decided to wake her up first.

Knowing that the woman had fainted due to malnutrition, and since there was no food available, they could only take her home to the family hospital.

Back at the family compound, Sun Xiuhua and the others helped carry the person inside.

Ye Zhaozhao poured her a cup of brown sugar water and fed it to her. When Tian Yu woke up, she found herself in an unfamiliar environment.

Where am I?

Ye Zhaozhao then told the woman about fainting, mentioning that this was a family compound. Upon hearing that she was in a military region, the woman inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you feeling better? Do you live in Shuigouzi Village? Do you need me to take you home?"

Upon hearing that she would be sent back, fear flashed across the woman's face; she didn't want to go back.

But he couldn't be a burden to Ye Zhaozhao, and just as he was about to get up and leave, he heard Ye Zhaozhao say something.

"When I examined you just now, I found out you're eight months pregnant."

Your body is severely lacking in nutrition; continuing like this will be bad for the fetus.

"What did you say?"

Tian Yu looked at Ye Zhaozhao, but instead of the joy of becoming a mother, she seemed flustered.

Ye Zhaozhao could tell from her expression that she had no idea she was pregnant.

"It's getting late, why don't you stay at my place and we can talk about it tomorrow?"

Ye Zhaozhao was worried about her going back alone, and Tian Yu was shocked by the news of her pregnancy.

She agreed without really thinking about it, and Ye Zhaozhao went to cook while she went to help.

"Comrade, you're a doctor, right?"

Ye Zhaozhao nodded, and when Tian Yu heard that she was a doctor, she looked at her with expectant eyes.
