Uncle Zhang didn't dare linger and quickly left.

After taking the money, Qin Xiang didn't dare go back to the performing arts troupe. Instead, she went home first and hid the money.

Only then did he return to the performing arts troupe.

"Xiang'er, who's looking for you?"

Hearing her friend's words, Qin Xiang smiled and said.

"I asked the villagers to buy things from me, and they asked when the goods would be delivered."

Hearing Qin Xiang say this, the man didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that everyone's attention was no longer on her, Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Yue was busy at home when she suddenly heard the sound of an emergency assembly.

Jiang Yue put down her pen and came out of the room.

Standing in the courtyard, Jiang Yue saw many of her sisters-in-law come out, and everyone's eyes were looking in the direction of the office.

"Moon".

Lin Ling walked over, and Yang Hong followed her over.

"It might just be a drill, don't overthink it."

"Yes, if there's a mission, they might send someone else out."

Lin Ling offered words of comfort.

"Um."

Hearing their words of comfort, Jiang Yue smiled and said.

"Thank you. I knew all this before I married him, so I won't be angry or sad. He can go and do his thing; I have a lot of things to take care of myself."

Seeing the smile on Jiang Yue's face, Lin Ling and Yang Hong felt a little more at ease.

They all went through this period. When their husbands went on missions, they were both sad and worried, heavily pregnant, and they didn't know how they got through that time.

"Comrade Jiang, someone is calling you."

Jiang Yue went to the service center, picked up the phone, and heard Qin An's voice.

"Moon".

Qin An's unhappy voice rang out from the other end of the phone.

"Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant? Don't you consider me your best friend? This is really too much."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue finally remembered.

She really didn't tell Qin An about this.

"It's not that I can't say it for the first three months; I plan to say it after three months."

That one sentence immediately appeased Qin An.

"I forgive you." Qin Xiang's tone instantly brightened.

How far along are you in your pregnancy?

Hearing Qin An's words, Jiang Yue smiled and said.

"It's been almost two months."

Qin An's voice came again.

"Will you throw up every day like my sister-in-law? Will you be able to eat? Is there anything you particularly crave...?"

Qin An spoke at length.

Hearing Qin An's words of concern, Jiang Yue smiled and said.

"I have a good appetite and don't really crave anything. But I really want something spicy."

Jiang Yue talked with Qin An for half an hour. After hanging up, Jiang Yue paid the bill and went home.

Jiang Yue remembered the little clothes Qin An had mentioned.

She plans to make some small clothes and shoes for the child herself.

There were also some fabrics she had bought before in the closet, all of them pure cotton.

Jiang Yue returned to her bedroom, took out paper and pen, and began drawing pictures of clothes for her child.

Jiang Yue's drawings are all of designs from twenty years later.

After drawing several pictures, Jiang Yue stopped.

After a while, someone shouted from outside the courtyard.

"sister in law."

Hearing the sound, Jiang Yue went outside.

"Sister-in-law, the battalion commander has gone on a mission. He asked me to tell you."

Hearing the young soldier's words, Jiang Yue smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard work."

The young soldier turned and left.
