Chapter 94: Ma Siqing stays indoors
After seeing the doctor at the hospital, Ma Siqing was very happy.
The doctor said she was healthy and the baby in her belly was doing well.
It was just that she was already pregnant at only three months pregnant, which seemed different from others. The doctor asked Ma Siqing to be careful and exercise more.
Ma Siqing went home and looked at her belly, which was indeed much bigger.
It was impossible for a baby to grow so fast. The only possibility was that there were two babies in her belly.
In her previous life, her staff was pregnant with twins and was also pregnant at three months.
She was curious and asked at that time.
Recently, she didn't want to go out and was sewing clothes at home.
While Tong Shiyu was not back yet, she would sew a few more pieces.
Fortunately, the large bags she brought with her from Danjiang were not placed in the main house, so the fire did not affect the small house and the bags were intact.
Ma Siqing took out two thick and soft quilts from the Space Supermarket and sewed a piece of army green cotton cloth on the outside.
She prepared double the things the baby would need, so that she would not be in a hurry if she really gave birth to twins.
Even if it was not twins, she could keep some for the next one.
When Aunt Feng came to visit, she saw Ma Siqing busy preparing clothes for the baby and praised Ma Siqing for her cleverness and the clothes and socks she made were beautiful and easy to use.
Ma Siqing generously accepted Aunt Feng's compliment.
Aunt Feng brought the news that Hong Haitao's wife Huang Ying was fired by the logistics department.
Ma Siqing was surprised. Huang Ying was a military dependent. Could she be fired while working in the army?
Aunt Feng said that she heard the couple quarreling at home. The reason was that Huang Ying liked to gossip when she worked in the logistics department.
Minister Li gave her countless chances, but she refused to change her bad habits.
Ma Siqing fell silent.
She has been in the army for so long and has never said bad things about others.
Even though she knew that it was Zhang Xiangling who lit the fire and the firewood on the slope was most likely pushed down by Zhang Xiangling, she never said a word against Zhang Xiangling, nor did she cause trouble for Commander Zhang.
It was not her ostrich mentality to do this.
In the army, Tong Shiyu still had to be promoted, and she also thought it was better to have less trouble than more.
As long as she was not successfully victimized, everything would be fine.
After rebirth, luck has improved.
Those who hurt her often ended up shooting themselves in the foot without her having to do anything.
When Aunt Feng left, she reminded Ma Siqing not to go far away while pregnant, and just walk around near home.
If she was afraid and unsafe, she could go find her, as she was almost always at home, and she could keep her company.
Ma Siqing thanked Aunt Feng again and again and sent her away.
Aunt Feng left six eggs for Ma Siqing.
In this ordinary world, it is easy to be moved by ordinary people, and Ma Siqing felt closer to Aunt Feng.
She thought about making some food in two days and sending it to Aunt Feng.
Tong Shiyu only completed his mission and returned to the army in mid-March.
After reporting on his work, Tong Shiyu returned home.
Ma Siqing was making dinner.
Tong Shiyu entered the house and heard the noise in the kitchen. He put down his things and ran straight to the kitchen.
Seeing Ma Siqing busy in the stove, he felt relieved.
Ma Siqing looked up and saw Tong Shiyu, ran over happily and threw herself into Tong Shiyu's arms.
"Brother Shiyu, you're back!"
Tong Shiyu felt that his heart was about to be thrown out by Ma Siqing's hug.
"Siqing, you have been alone at home for such a long time, how have you been?"
"I'm fine, I hardly go out unless there is something important. You see, the firewood at the door has been burned up by me."
Before Tong Shiyu entered the house, he saw that the firewood in the open space was all gone, and he was very relieved to know that Ma Siqing was not cold at home.
"Siqing, go and have a rest. I'll cook." Tong Shiyu hugged Ma Siqing tightly for a while, then hurried to cook, fearing that Ma Siqing was hungry.
"Well, I'll help you."
"No, just wait for the food, go sit on the kang!"
"No, I want to watch you."
Tong Shiyu felt sweet as honey when he heard Ma Siqing say this, and moved a chair over for Ma Siqing to sit beside him.
He simply made noodles, some cabbage, and a poached egg, and that was dinner.
When Ma Siqing went to bed at night, she took off her clothes and was left with only a single layer of clothes. Tong Shiyu saw that Ma Siqing's belly had bulged, and felt incredible.
"Siqing, your belly is so big?" Tong Shiyu stroked Ma Siqing's belly.
"Well, I don't know why. I went to the hospital to see a doctor, and the doctor just told me to go home and be careful, nothing else."
Ma Siqing didn't say that she felt she was pregnant with two babies because she was not sure whether it was twins.
Tong Shiyu hugged Ma Siqing and told her about his longing for her for the past month and a half. He also told her about the interesting things he encountered when he was out, and omitted the dangers he encountered when patrolling the border.
Ma Siqing talked about the things that needed to be bought at home. If Tong Shiyu was free, the two of them would take some time to go to Fuyuan Town to buy them back.
It will be April soon, and it is time to plant melons and vegetables.
The open space in front of the door should be used.
He also asked Tong Shiyu to ask Zhong Guofan if he could lend her the open space in front of his house.
Tong Shiyu agreed and said he would ask tomorrow.
However, he hoped that Ma Siqing would be left to him to do the work of weeding the land, watering and fertilizing, and that Ma Siqing would only be responsible for sowing the seeds.
Ma Siqing sweetly replied that she would definitely make good use of her lover and exploit him whenever possible.
Tong Shiyu's heart was filled with joy. Being needed is the way to be loved!
They also talked about the principal of Sanchagou School who had approached Ma Siqing and hoped that she would be a substitute teacher. However, Ma Siqing felt that the journey was a bit far, and she refused because she had to walk ten miles back and forth alone and her belly was getting bigger quickly.
The preparations for the school on the military side seemed to be nearing completion, and it was estimated that it would be put into use by the end of April.
Ma Siqing felt a little sorry, and with her big belly, she didn't know if she could still be a teacher.
Tong Shiyu said it was okay, the school was not far from the family compound, and it was convenient for her to go back and forth.
The weather was getting warmer, and the big cotton jacket didn't need to be worn all the time.
It was almost April when Tong Shiyu finally found time to go to Fuyuan Town with Ma Siqing.
Ma Siqing made a list of vegetable seeds, and Tong Shiyu went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some of each.
Then he cut some meat.
Although the wages were all given to Ma Siqing, Ma Siqing only took out half of it, and put the rest in a place they both knew, and whoever needed it could take it.
Tong Shiyu asked a lot of experienced people during this time, what pregnant women need to eat to supplement their nutrition.
So he bought sugar, fruit, eggs, and fish.
The ice in the river melted, and Tong Shiyu planned to go fishing and stew it for Ma Siqing to eat to nourish her body.
Tong Shiyu found that Ma Siqing's clothes did not fit her, so he asked at the supply and marketing cooperative if there were any clothes for pregnant women.
The staff said no, but that larger sizes could be bought to cover the belly.
Tong Shiyu paid for two pieces.
In the summer and autumn, Ma Siqing's belly got bigger, and she certainly couldn't wear the clothes she had before. She couldn't stay at home, could she?
Seeing that Tong Shiyu bought clothes for her, Ma Siqing was surprised, and then she looked at her belly and instantly understood. She was happy that Tong Shiyu was thinking about her all the time. After buying things
, the two went to the post office and received a package and a letter sent by Sulan.
