Chapter 88 Pregnancy

The days passed in such a dull and repetitive time, and the Chinese New Year was coming soon.

Ma Siqing went to Fuyuan Town with Tong Shiyu to buy meat, candy, and biscuits. She

also bought a piece of red paper and went home to cut window paper-cuts.

There was cloth at home, so Ma Siqing bought some cotton and wool.

All these were bought under Tong Shiyu's nose. Tong Shiyu saw that although Ma Siqing spent money quickly, it was all spent on the right things. He was a little happy, but also felt sad.

If his allowances in these years had not been embezzled by Tong Dabao, his wife would not have to be so frugal.

Ma Siqing felt that she was not feeling well these two days, and it seemed that she was pregnant.

How to test for pregnancy in this era?

The menstruation has been delayed for five days. In the past, Ma Siqing's menstruation always came on time.

It is very likely that she is pregnant.

Ma Siqing went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought some vinegar to go back and make some kimchi.

After thinking about it, she turned around and bought some cotton.

On the way home, she took a shuttle bus from the forest farm.

There was still a mile away from the army. Ma Siqing felt acid reflux in her stomach and wanted to vomit. She wanted to hold it in and vomit it out when she got home, but she really couldn't hold it in anymore, so she asked the driver to stop the car.

She bent over and vomited on the side of the road for a long time before she stopped.

Tong Shiyu was anxious. When Ma Siqing got off the car, he also got off with his things.

Seeing that Ma Siqing kept vomiting, he hurriedly asked Ma Siqing if she was sick? He returned to the army and took her to see a doctor.

She apologized to the driver and asked him to go back first so as not to waste his time.

The driver of the forest farm said there was no rush and he could wait. The weather was too cold and it would take a long time to walk back.

Ma Siqing said she was not sick and she would be fine after she vomited out the contents of her stomach.

After vomiting for ten minutes, Ma Siqing felt that her stomach was almost empty and she felt much better. She got in the car and thanked the driver repeatedly.

When getting off the car at the military unit, Ma Siqing left a bag of sugar on the seat to express her gratitude to the driver.

When she got home, Ma Siqing still felt like vomiting, so she sat next to the stove with a basin on her arms and vomited.

This made Tong Shiyu very anxious.

"Siqing, what's wrong with you? Let's go find the hygienist."

After saying that, he carried Ma Siqing on his back and went to the military unit to find the hygienist.

Ma Siqing patted Tong Shiyu's broad back:

"Put me down. I'm not sick. I, I might be pregnant."

Tong Shiyu froze there for a while before he realized what Ma Siqing meant.

"Siqing, are you saying, are you saying that I'm going to be a father?"

"Not sure yet, but I think so. Aunt Feng recently told me that when she was pregnant with Mao Xiaowang, she vomited so much that she couldn't even get out of bed to work."

"It's still early, let's go to the camp and ask the health staff to help you."

"The month is still young, the health staff probably can't tell. Let's wait a few more days!"

"Siqing, go and have a rest. I'll do all the housework in the future. You just rest at home every day."

"I'm not that rich. It will be easier to have a baby if you move more."

"Then you promise me that you will only do some sweeping work, and I'll do the other physical work."

"Brother Shiyu, don't be nervous. I'm pregnant, not seriously ill."

"I heard from the old people that giving birth is like going through the gates of hell. Tomorrow I'll ask someone with experience about what to pay attention to during pregnancy."

"Well, Brother Shiyu, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

"No, you're carrying my child. I wish I could do everything for you so that you can give birth safely."

"Brother Shiyu, you're so nice!"

"Siqing, go sit on the kang, I'll make dinner."

In the evening, Chen Xiaowei went to Ma Siqing's house again at dinner time.

"Xiaowei, I'm going to be a father."

"Really?" Chen Xiaowei was also very happy to hear that.

"Sister-in-law, when will the baby be born?"

"The baby will be born in the fall of next year." Ma Siqing's tone made people feel that she was very happy.

"Children born in autumn are tough. Brother Shiyu, you are so quick!" Chen Xiaowei teased Tong Shiyu.

"Xiaowei, Sulan replied." Ma Siqing finished her meal and took out a letter from the drawer.

When she went to Fuyuan Town today, Ma Siqing stopped by the post office and happened to see a letter Sulan had written back to her.

She opened it and took a quick look, and found that Sulan had replied to Chen Xiaowei.

Ma Siqing was very happy.

Now that she was done with

her work, she took out the letter and read it carefully. Tong Shiyu was washing dishes and cleaning the kitchen.

Ma Siqing and Chen Xiaowei each held a letter and read it under the lamp.

Sulan told Ma Siqing about her current situation: Sulan's father's condition was stable, and the monthly medicine money was reduced. She was working part-time in a bedding factory, and with her own salary, it was enough to support the family.

Xiaojun, Xiaohai, and Xiaomei were all very sensible and knew how to save money for her. Her grades were pretty good, and she hadn't forgotten Ma Siqing's instructions.

Some time ago, a worker from a steel factory named Fang Shiming asked a matchmaker to propose marriage to her. She always remembered Ma Siqing's words and refused.

Then the man came to her, and she got excited and said that she had a partner who was in the army and would be discharged soon, so she told Fang Shiming to give up as soon as possible. She also

showed the photo to the matchmaker, and the matchmaker didn't come to her house to bother her again.

She hoped that Ma Siqing would talk to Chen Xiaowei. She had no choice but to use Chen Xiaowei as a shield.

Please ask Ma Siqing to tell her the truth about the situation in her family. If Chen Xiaowei is willing, she is looking forward to this marriage.

After seeing Chen Xiaowei's photo, she felt that he was a good match for her.

Chen Xiaowei also told Sulan about his specific situation. Sulan felt that Chen Xiaowei was a sincere person and she liked him very much.

It was also said that there was a woman from Beijing who was dressed like someone who was either rich or noble.

She was very beautiful, tall, and had fair skin. She looked to be less than 40 years old, which made her look very young.

The woman spoke in a soft voice, and was followed by an older man. She

seemed to have a background, because they were able to get the name that Ma Siqing was currently using from the Public Security Bureau.

They also found her and asked for Ma Siqing's address. Sulan said that she replied that she didn't know where Ma Siqing had gone, let alone an address. She

told Ma Siqing to be careful, as someone might be plotting something bad against her.

When Ma Siqing saw this, she almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face.

Ever since she experienced what happened to Yao Guozhu's family, Sulan thought that everyone she saw was trying to harm Ma Siqing.

At the end of the letter, Sulan mentioned Bai Xiuzhi's recent situation. It was rumored that Bai Xiuzhi was locked up at home by Dong Dashan and tortured day and night.

Dong Dashan had calmed down, and there was almost no scandal about him in Danjiang City.

However, his lackey Wang Wu still had his way in Danjiang.

Yao Guozhu's family disappeared in Danjiang. Some people said that the Yao family went to Jingshi, and some said that the Yao family went to Haishi.

Someone who came back from the labor camp brought back news about Yao Guozhu. He was entangled by several gangsters in the labor camp, and he no longer had the coolness of the former director of the cold street office.

Yao Guozhu was assigned to do dirty, tiring and heavy work in the labor camp. His left hand was broken once. Anyway, it was very miserable.

The Lin family is quiet now, but the three of them don't work, don't study, and just sit at home and eat up all the money.

Someone introduced Lin Chunhua to someone, but every time she met someone, they all fell through.
