Lin Wanqiu smiled and nodded. Just as she was about to drink the chicken soup, she suddenly felt nauseous, quickly covered her mouth, and ran to the yard to dry heave.
Shen Tingzhou and Old Madam Shen panicked and rushed over. "Wanqiu, what's wrong? Did you eat something bad?" Shen Tingzhou held her shoulder, his voice full of worry.
Grandma Shen was so anxious that she stamped her feet: "Have you been too tired lately? No, I have to go to the commune clinic tomorrow. I can't let my health suffer."
Lin Wanqiu paused for a moment and shook her head: "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired." Although she said that, she had a vague guess in her heart - she had been feeling sleepy lately, had no appetite, and always felt nauseous. These symptoms were very similar to the pregnancy reactions she had heard about in her previous life.
The next morning, Shen Tingzhou took Lin Wanqiu to the commune clinic. The doctor took her pulse and said with a smile, "Congratulations, young lady, you're pregnant, almost two months along."
Upon hearing this, Shen Tingzhou was so happy he almost jumped for joy. He hugged Lin Wanqiu tightly, his voice trembling, "Wanqiu, we have a child! We have a child again!"
Lin Wanqiu's eyes also reddened with excitement. She touched her lower abdomen, where a new life was growing, the fruit of her and Shen Tingzhou's love, and the new hope for this family.
Back in the village, when Grandma Shen heard that Lin Wanqiu was pregnant, she was happier than anyone else. She quickly gathered all the eggs in the house and even went to the henhouse to collect freshly laid eggs, which she cooked for Lin Wanqiu: "Wanqiu, you're carrying two now, so you need to take good care of yourself. Don't work too hard at the workshop anymore. With Zhang Lan and Tingzhou here, you can focus on your pregnancy."
Zhang Lan smiled and said, "Yes, Wanqiu, don't worry, I'll take care of the workshop. I promise I'll do a good job. If you want anything to eat, just tell me and I'll make it for you."
Looking at the happy family before her, Lin Wanqiu felt a surge of happiness. She knew that the hardships of the past were over, and the future would be filled with sunshine and hope. She gently touched her lower abdomen and silently said in her heart: "Child, don't worry, your parents will definitely give you a warm home and let you grow up surrounded by love."
As the sun set, golden rays bathed the Shen family's courtyard, illuminating the smiles on everyone's faces. In the distance, the rice stalks were heavy with grain, a testament to another bountiful harvest. Lin Wanqiu leaned against Shen Tingzhou's chest, watching Old Mrs. Shen and Zhang Lan busily working in the kitchen, her heart filled with anticipation for the future—she knew a new life was about to arrive, and this family would become even more complete and happier.
