Chapter 385 Xiaomei Calls

Lin Qingqing had just finished dinner and was about to show the test report to Grandma Song and tell her that she was pregnant.

The main reason was that the look in her eyes just now was quite obvious.

"Ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling~"

The phone suddenly rang.

Wu Fangnian put down his bowl and chopsticks, took two steps over to the phone and answered it.

"Hello, this is Chief of Staff Song's home."

Grandma Song turned around and watched Wu Fangnian answer the phone. At this time, a phone call could arouse people's nerves.

"Okay, she's here."

Wu Fangnian put down the phone, turned to Lin Qingqing and said, "It's Xiao Si's comrade who called. Qingqing, please answer it."

Comrades? Someone from Eagle Claw?

Lin Qingqing came over and answered the phone: "Hello~"

There was a clang on the other end of the phone, and Xiaomei asked in a hoarse voice, "Sister?"

It turned out to be Zhou Lie calling.

"Xiaomei, how is your marriage going?" Lin Qingqing asked.

"We just returned to the army this afternoon. Sister Xiuhong said that you haven't come back yet. I was worried about you, so I called to ask about the situation." Xiaomei said in a nervous tone.

Lin Qingqing: "Your brother-in-law has a mission in Beijing, so we have to stay here for a month before we can go back. Your fifth sister-in-law gave birth two days ago, it's a boy. I guess your second uncle and his family will return to Shaanxi from Kyoto in another week."

Grandma Song heard that her daughter-in-law had given birth to a child, so she quietly went back to her room to look for a gift.

After listening to Lin Qingqing's story, Xiaomei knew nothing had happened, so she smiled again and said, "Sister, Zhou Lie and I got our marriage certificate this afternoon. When he left Kyoto, he called the army to apply for a marriage certificate. Today, Zou Feng came to pick us up and brought all the documents with him. We got the certificate here, so that when we go back to the army and live together, no one will gossip."

Lin Qingqing smiled: "Who said before that they didn't want to get married? It's only been a few months, let me count..."

How could Xiaomei let Lin Qingqing really count on her fingers? She said anxiously, "I was young and didn't understand anything back then. Don't laugh at me. I have several things to tell you."

Lin Qingqing could imagine Xiaomei's angry and glaring look on the other end of the phone.

She smiled and asked, "What do you want?"

When Xiaomei saw Lin Qingqing asking questions, she couldn't stop talking.

"The first thing was that my mother-in-law said that since it's a national funeral now, we shouldn't have a banquet for now. Besides, they're all soldiers, so they need to be extra careful. We can wait until the baby is born before having a big banquet. My parents agreed with this idea. Holding a banquet at this time wouldn't just make people look down on us. So, our two families had a meal together at home."

"Didn't you see how the villagers' eyes popped out when they saw my parents-in-law driving over? Hehe~ My mother-in-law is a very nice person. She even gave me a gold bracelet. My father-in-law also spoke in a friendly manner. I think they like me very much."

Lin Qingqing understood Xiaomei's arrogance. Because of the broken engagement, her family and Xiaomei were criticized by the villagers and had a dark period of time.

Now things have taken a turn for the better. Xiaomei has married a soldier whose family is well-off. The reputation of the village has changed, and the family can finally hold their heads high.

Lin Qingqing was also happy for her on the other end of the phone, and she continued, "Sister, didn't I sign up for the army earlier? I was drafted and assigned to the 957th Unit, which is our unit."

"I asked Zhou Lie if he had done anything, and he said he hadn't done anything. Zou Feng said it was impossible for them to influence these things. Do you think I'm just too lucky? All the good things have happened to me."

Xiaomei's tone was full of excitement and Lin Qingqing could feel it clearly through the phone.

Lin Qingqing chuckled, you are really lucky, carriers of the special type A gene will be very popular in all countries in the future.

"Well, I'm so lucky. From now on, we can be in the same unit."

The next second, he said even more excitedly, "Didn't Zhou Lie apply for a house a while ago? Guess where he got it?"

From what Lin Qingqing meant by her words, she must be living next door to some familiar sisters-in-law, or maybe the location is good.

This must have been a deliberate arrangement by the Party Committee. He was in charge of distributing housing in the army.

Lin Qingqing asked tentatively, "Next door to Xiuhong or Hongxi?"

"Oh my, sister, you're amazing! Our house was allocated next to Sister Xiuhong's. When she saw that it was me who moved in, she jumped up and down with joy."

Lin Qingqing listened to Xiaomei babble for a while before the two ended the call.

She asked Xiaomei to help take care of the vegetable garden, and told Xiuhong and others that she would not be back to the army for another month, so they could pick the vegetables in the garden and eat them directly when they were ripe, and not leave any for her.

Xiaomei responded one by one, saying that she brought a lot of things from her hometown, and would leave some dry goods for her to eat when she came back.

Lin Qingqing hung up the phone and looked at what was at hand. Wow, the call lasted for more than twenty minutes.

She turned and went back to the living room. Grandma Song was sitting upright on the sofa, holding a box on the table in front of her.

"Qingqing, I heard you say your fifth sister-in-law is pregnant?"

Seeing her coming, Grandma Song took the box, opened it and put it on the table: "Your fifth sister-in-law's child is in Kyoto, which is also a kind of fate. You can take this pair of small gold bracelets to the child."

Lin Qingqing looked down at the box. It contained a pair of gold bracelets carved with cloud patterns, and there were two bells on the movable parts of the bracelets.

"Grandma, I can't accept this. It's too expensive, and my parents won't accept it."

When Grandma Song heard this, her face immediately fell: "Are you being so formal with me again? I'm giving it to that child. If the child says he doesn't like it, I won't give it to him."

Lin Qingqing: “…”

I thought you were making fun of me on purpose. How could a child of only a few days old speak like that?

She closed the box and said, "Then I'd like to thank you on behalf of my nephew, Grandma. I have something to tell you today as well."

She took out the examination report from her bag and handed it to Grandma Song.

Grandma Song took it and saw that there were a bunch of numbers on it. She felt dizzy, but she recognized the bottom row of words.

"According to the reported data, the HCG value of the examinee is three times higher than the normal value. The preliminary judgment is that there is a possibility of pregnancy. Please conduct further examination to confirm."

Grandma Song took the report and read half of it. She covered her mouth and asked in surprise: "Qingqing, are you pregnant?"
