Xu Di, born in the 1980s, graduated from high school but didn't get into college. She worked in a garment factory for t...
Chapter 91
Every morning, after Xu Di got up and opened the window, she could hear the crisp sound of wind chimes and the baby in her belly would move.
Xu Di thinks that children also like this wind chime.
Touching her six-month-old belly, Xu Di felt particularly happy.
After putting on overalls and looking at her round belly, Xu Di suddenly wanted Zhang Chaoyang to see her belly.
Unfortunately, he can't come back.
I looked up and saw a photo of the two of them hanging on the wall.
That was when Hao Yunlei took the photo of them at their wedding. After the photo was developed, Zhang Chaoyang made the photo frame himself.
Xu Di suddenly remembered the maternity photos from her previous life. At that time, many people took maternity photos.
Although you can't take photos that show your belly at this time, it's okay to take normal photos.
I will go to shoot this Sunday, and send it to Zhang Chaoyang after I’m done.
Xu Di walked out of the room humming a song. Grandma was listening to the radio, and Aunt Wu had already prepared dinner.
"Xiao Di, you slept well last night and you are in such a good mood."
"Grandma, let's go take pictures on Sunday."
"Photograph?"
Grandma didn't quite understand why she went to take pictures at this time.
"Well, look at my belly, it's already round.
I want to take a picture of my big belly and send it to Chaoyang so that he can know the condition of the baby in his belly. ”
Xu Di's belly looked even bigger when she was wearing overalls.
"I didn't expect that. Xiao Di is smart. I just find it strange that Chaoyang can't see you pregnant."
Grandma didn't find out that Xiaodi could think of this. She was happy, happy for Chaoyang.
"We'll go together this week. Grandma and I will take a photo together and show Comrade Zhang Chaoyang that we are living well at home."
Xu Di thought, take a few more photos, develop them and keep them.
When the children grow up and see her photos, they will definitely sigh that their mother was so fashionable that she thought of taking maternity photos decades ago.
"Okay, let's go together."
Grandma was happy, she was really happy.
What’s wrong with having few children? One caring one is worth a hundred.
Xu Di went to work after dinner. Grandma Qian was rummaging through the drawers at home, thinking about which dress to wear for the photo.
"bell……"
The phone rang, Grandma Qian went out to answer it, and Xiao Wu went out to buy groceries.
"Hello, who is this?"
"It's me. I heard Chaoyang's wife is pregnant?"
Grandma Qian recognized that it was Chaoyang’s grandfather who told her.
Not long after Chaoyang got married, he returned to the army.
Xiaodi has not contacted Chaoyang's parents or grandfather. They are not familiar with each other and hope that they are all doing well.
"Yeah, I'm pregnant."
"Then why didn't you tell me that I'm Chaoyang's grandfather?"
The old man on the other end of the phone was a little unhappy, but he couldn't get angry.
"What do you have to do with me? Can you take care of me or provide any help?"
Grandma Qian thought this man was weird. He had no shortage of grandchildren, so why was he so concerned about Chaoyang? He wasn't that close to him.
"What you said is true. When the child is born, he will call me great grandfather. Isn't it normal for me to show some concern?"
"Okay, you're done with your concern. I received it on behalf of Xiao Di. Anything else? If not, I'll hang up now."
Grandma Qian really had no feelings for this man who had only been in her life for two years.
Neither resentment nor nostalgia, just a passer-by in life.
The reason why I can still say a few words is because of Chaoyang.
"Got it. I'll have someone send some nutritional supplements over this afternoon."
“Beep…”
After hanging up the phone, Grandma Qian felt that this person was incomprehensible.
Okay, she will accept it if it is sent to her. Supplies are tight now, so she should take it.
After hanging up the phone, Grandma Qian continued to pack her clothes, thinking about what to wear for the photo shoot.
The old man on the other end of the phone stared at it angrily, feeling upset.
He picked up the phone and called Chaoyang's father again.
"What do you do all day long?"
"Dad, what's wrong?"
Zhang Peng was a little confused after being scolded for no reason.
I haven't heard of any changes in the past few days. What happened to the old man? Why did he get angry?
"What's wrong? How do you become a father? Chaoyang's wife is pregnant. Did you know?"
"Ah? Really? I didn't know. Chaoyang went back to the army, and his daughter-in-law didn't come over either?"
Zhang Peng didn't expect that Chaoyang's wife was pregnant. They really hadn't heard of this.
"From what you said, you haven't visited your mother during this period?
You are such a filial son. You didn't even visit your old mother who raised you alone for half a year. You are such a good son to me! ”
The old man hung up the phone angrily, feeling even more guilty towards Grandma Chaoyang.
Listening to the beeping sound in the microphone, Zhang Peng felt a little guilty.
He didn't like to look at his mother. Every time he met her eyes, he would feel inexplicably guilty.
When he was young, he distanced himself from his mother, and later felt guilty and wanted to make amends, but he didn't know what to do.
I thought that once I got married and had children, everything would be fine for the sake of the children.
Unexpectedly, her wife didn't get along with his mother, and the child was not close to his grandmother.
He felt better only after sending Chaoyang to his mother. I agree with his wife's words and feel that I have given away a son to his mother.
The result was that his mother became completely alienated from them, and his son was not close to them either.
Zhang Peng felt stomach discomfort for a while and called his wife again.
"Zhou Hong, Chaoyang's wife is pregnant, did you know?"
"What, Chaoyang's wife is pregnant, when did it happen?"
Zhou Hong didn't like Chaoyang's wife at all, the daughter of an ordinary worker's family. She didn't know what the old lady and Chaoyang liked about her.
"My father called me just now and scolded me, saying that I was not filial to my mother.
Let’s find some time to visit mom. We haven’t been there for almost half a year. ”
"Okay, got it. I'll go during the week off."
After they discussed it, they went about their own business.
On the day off, Xu Di and her grandmother changed their clothes and prepared to go to a nearby photo studio.
Grandma was wearing a pair of black pants and a short-sleeved shirt with floral patterns, which Xu Di had made for her some time ago.
The pants are tailored to fit you nicely, not baggy or bulky.
The short-sleeved shirt with floral patterns, a small lapel and a slightly waisted design looks very neat when worn.
"Grandma, what do you think of me?"
Xu Di wore a pair of khaki overalls and a beige short-sleeved shirt with puff sleeves and a doll collar, which was very cute.
"Look, it's really good-looking. It looks like she is under 18 years old."
“Grandma is pretty too!”
The two of them went downstairs together and went to the photo studio.
Fortunately, they arrived early and the photo studio had just opened, so there was no one else there.
"Comrade, we want to take a photo."
"A solo photo or a group photo?"
"Take a group photo, and then a few individual photos. Grandma, I want to take a few more photos to save for later.
You should also take a few more photos. You will feel different when you look at them again ten or twenty years later. ”
Grandma is happy, but can she live that long?
"Okay, take some more pictures."
The old lady didn't take many photos and was a little nervous.
"Grandma, let me take the photo first while you get used to it." Xu Di noticed that her grandma was a little unnatural, and he understood when he thought of her previous job.
Xu Di posed on his own without the guidance of the photographer.
There aren't many backgrounds in today's photo studios, and what's more, they are all black and white photos, so it's hard to tell.
Xu Di turned slightly sideways, placed her hands lightly on her stomach, not looking at the camera, but looking into the distance.
The photographer captured this moment and pressed the shutter.
Xu Di changed his poses and took several photos.
Grandma Qian was also infected and was no longer nervous. The two of them took two group photos together, and Grandma Qian took three solo photos by herself.
"Comrade, print three copies of each group photo, and two copies of each individual photo."
Xu Di wanted to send one copy to Zhang Chaoyang, and she and her grandmother would keep the rest.
"No problem, come pick it up in a week."
Xu Di paid the money and ticket, and walked out of the photo studio happily with his grandmother.
The two people were excitedly discussing along the way, unaware that someone at home was waiting anxiously.
