Chapter 90

I don’t know if pregnancy can be contagious. At the end of June, Xu’s mother came to see Xu Di and brought two pieces of news.

"Mom, you said my sister-in-law and elder sister are both pregnant?"

"Well, your sister called yesterday and said she is three months pregnant.

Your sister-in-law went to the hospital this morning and was diagnosed with the disease. She has been pregnant for more than a month. ”

Xu's mother did not expect that her three children's families would one after another receive news of pregnancy.

"Congratulations to Xiaodi's mother. There is a new addition to the family. Grandsons and grandchildren, we have them all this time."

Grandma Qian was listening nearby and quickly congratulated Xu's mother.

"Yes, I didn't expect that they would get pregnant at the same time. This is Dali's wife's second child, and Xu Mei and Xu Di's first child. I am both happy and worried.

Dali's wife lives with us, and I can come to visit Xu Di from time to time. But Xu Mei lives too far away, and I don't know if her husband can take good care of her. ”

Xu Di and Xu Mei did not have any private contact, so she didn't know what attitude the man's parents had towards their marriage after she returned.

Her parents gave her 500 yuan dowry and bought some other things. Xu Di had never heard from her parents whether the man gave a dowry or not.

"That's right. A mother worries about her child even when he is far away! But there is nothing we can do. This is the national policy. We have no choice but to accept it."

Grandma Qian is also an old revolutionary. Everyone knows the reason, but what can be done?

"I also know that apart from sending her some things, there is nothing I can do.

It’s too far. It’ll take a long time to go back and forth. ”

Xu's mother wanted to go see Xu Mei, but it was not realistic as she had to work. Besides, it was so far away and she herself had no confidence that she could arrive safely.

"Mom, what does my sister mean? Does she want you to go over?"

"No, she said that the supplies there are not as easy to buy as here, so she asked me to help prepare some things."

Xu's mother was also angry with Xu Mei, because she found a partner and got married on her own initiative, but in the end, the man couldn't help her at all.

Xu Di did not express any opinion. How to prepare and how much to prepare was up to her mother. She was pregnant herself, so she couldn't help and wouldn't say anything.

Xu's mother stayed for a while and then left. She just came to see Xu Di and brought some vegetables and eggs.

The child was brought here by his second uncle yesterday afternoon, but because he was in a hurry to go back, he did not come to Xu Di's place.

After seeing Xu's mother off, Xu Di touched her belly, which was now more than five months old.

Her belly wasn't too big, and her fetal movements weren't frequent or regular.

Many people say that you can tell whether it is a boy or a girl by looking at the shape of the belly, or by feeling the fetal movement. If the belly bulges, it is a girl, while if it moves like a little fish blowing bubbles, it is a boy.

Xu Di couldn't feel the pattern of the baby's fetal movement. To her, it didn't matter whether it was a son or a daughter, she liked both.

Xu Di wrote all these things in a letter and sent it to the child’s father.

It was his first time being a father, and he couldn't see the baby's growth process in his belly with his own eyes, so it was nice to feel it through her description.

Although Xu Di never thought of living a life of love and intimacy with her husband in her life, she had an earth-shattering love.

However, Zhang Chaoyang tried hard to be a good husband and a good father, and she couldn't generalize and deny people a chance just because of her previous experiences.

They care about each other and want to live a good life, so let it be.

In early July, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and Xu Di, who was pregnant, always felt hot.

Grandma and Aunt Wu went to the department store and bought a fan.

When Xu Di came home from get off work, he saw a fan and a big package in his house.

"Grandma, did you buy a fan?"

"I bought it. You are pregnant, your body temperature is high, and you are afraid of heat. When the dog days come, you will be even hotter."

“Grandma, you’re so nice!”

Xu Di hugged his grandmother's arm and rubbed his head against her shoulder.

"You're about to become a mother, but you're still so good at acting like a spoiled brat!"

"Even though I'm a mother, I'm still a child in front of my grandma!"

Grandma Qian was smiling. She enjoyed Xu Di's closeness to her.

"By the way, don't blow the fan towards you. It will be troublesome if you catch a cold when you are pregnant."

"Yeah, I know, I won't blow it in the face."

Xu Di knew this common sense that pregnant women should not take medicine casually.

She was just grateful for her grandmother's thoughtfulness and for thinking of these things for her.

"Oh, look at my memory, the package sent back from Chaoyang.

Let’s take it apart and see what’s inside. ”

Zhang Chaoyang didn't know that the gift he carefully prepared was overshadowed by his grandmother's electric fan.

"This package was sent back by Chaoyang. It's so big. What did he send?"

"I don't know either, he never sent any packages back before.

Every time I come back, I bring some dried seafood. I'm not very good at making them, so I gave most of them away. ”

Grandma Qian is not very good at cooking, she can only cook until the food is cooked.

"We'll find out once we open it."

Xu Di knows how to make dried seafood. The seafood at this time is unpolluted and purely natural, so it should taste good.

"Xiao Wu, bring the scissors from the kitchen. Let's see what Chaoyang sent back."

Aunt Wu took the scissors and cut the string on the package.

"Oh, there really are dried seafood. I can smell it." Grandma took out a large, tightly wrapped paper bag and handed it to Aunt Wu.

"What's in this box that's tied so tightly?"

Xu Di first saw the letter in the package, which had already been opened.

Zhang Chaoyang once again apologized to Xu Di in his heart that he could not be with her.

In the package, there were the dried seafood he exchanged for, as well as the big shells she picked up, so that Xu Di could listen to the sound of the sea.

There is also a wind chime made for the child. He picked up the small shells from the beach, cleaned them, and made them by himself.

There was also a gift for my brother-in-law, a tank made from bullet shells. Another one is for Xu Di, his first first-class merit medal...

Xu Di told her grandmother the contents of the letter, and they found the conch, which was really big and beautiful. When you put it next to your ear, you can really hear the sound.

There is also the string of small shell wind chimes that Comrade Zhang Chaoyang made himself. When you pick it up, they tinkle and make a very pleasant sound.

"Now that I'm married and going to be a father, things are different. I'm much more thoughtful than before. I wouldn't have thought of these things before."

Grandma smiled, and the child's heart was no longer empty, but was filled with Xu Di and the soon-to-be-born child.

Xu Di took the string of wind chimes into the room and hung it on the window.

When the wind blows, the wind chimes tinkle.

"Baby, hear it, this is the sound of wind chimes that Daddy made for you.

Dad loves you, and mom loves you too. ”

As soon as Xu Di finished speaking, she felt her stomach move, as if the baby had turned over.

"Baby, you like it too, right?"

Xu Di gently stroked her belly, feeling the interaction of the baby under her palm.

In the living room, Grandma Qian sorted the things in the package, separated out some dried seafood, and sent them to the Xu family.

Xu Di sat at the desk and began to write a letter, writing down the child's reaction just now, and would send it to Zhang Chaoyang when the time came.

What Xu Di didn't know was that at this moment, Zhang Chaoyang was reading the letter she had sent him.

Through the letter, Zhang Chaoyang learned about Xu Di's reaction when she was pregnant. She vomited while brushing her teeth in the morning, and she also vomited after eating her favorite fish.

The belly gradually grew bigger, and the baby started to move. Xu Di, Grandma, and Aunt Wu made small clothes for the baby. They were very small, probably not as big as his palm...

Xu Di writes to me frequently, and I receive one every few days.

Zhang Chaoyang is really grateful to his wife, for her understanding, and for sharing everything with him...

Looking at the endless sea in front of him, Zhang Chaoyang felt that he was lucky because he met Xu Di!
