Chapter 329 Pregnant
Shang Shiying was startled by Fang Hua's words: "Don't talk nonsense. I did think it was good for Si Min to find Song Man before, after all, Song Man is older and can take care of him. But, given Chen Limin's personality, forget it... even if my Si Min stays single for the rest of his life, I will not agree."
Fang Hua agreed: "Chen Limin's temper is really terrible. How can she still be so stubborn at her age? I saw Song Dong's daughter the other day. The little girl is so pretty. Chen Limin is just so obstinate. It serves her right that she can't hold her grandchildren."
Shang Shiying agreed wholeheartedly: "That's right. If I were to become in-laws with her, I would shorten my lifespan by many years."
Jiang Zhizhi sat to the side listening, but in her mind she was wondering if Zhou Xiye had arrived at the airport yet? Was he still in Beijing?
Will we be able to reach southern Yunnan today?
A week after Zhou Xiye left, he made a phone call home, but the signal was very bad and the call was intermittent. Moreover, it was a military line, which couldn't be used for personal purposes for too long, so he hung up after only a few words.
Jiang Zhizhi heard him say that he was fine and told her not to worry and to take care of herself... but she didn't hear the rest clearly.
The call ended.
Jiang Zhizhi stared at the phone for a long time, still feeling like she had forgotten something very important.
Seeing her staring at the phone, Fang Hua comforted her instead: "Xi Ye called, which means he's doing well and safe over there. You don't need to worry about it. Have you been studying too hard lately? I see your face has gotten thinner. I'll make you something nice to eat tonight to help you recover."
Jiang Zhizhi snapped out of her daze and smiled, "No need, no need, Mom. I've been eating and sleeping well lately, so I haven't lost any weight at all."
She's still on winter break, and these days she goes to see Jin Huaiying every day to continue her studies.
When I get busy, I can forget about worrying about Zhou Xiye.
After the start of the school year, the workload became heavy, and this batch of students will be assigned to their new jobs next spring.
This final year was spent half studying at school and the other half interning in various departments of different hospitals.
A month after Zhou Xiye left, Jiang Zhizhi received his first letter. In the letter, he wrote that he had returned to his original unit and saw Zhang Zhao and Wang Changkun. They greeted her and he also wrote about the local customs and culture of southern Yunnan.
Jiang Zhizhi looked at the plain letter, which contained no words of longing, but she could feel Zhou Xiye's yearning for her.
This person, who doesn't like to talk much, can calm down and describe the local customs and culture in detail, as if he wants to take her through those villages and streets.
That evening, when Jiang Zhizhi had some free time to write a letter to Zhou Xiye, she suddenly remembered something very serious: her period, which was always very punctual, seemed to have been late for half a month!
It only just dawned on me that when I saw Zhou Xiye off that day, something flashed through my mind: there was a time when they both seemed to have forgotten to use the little balloons.
Jiang Zhizhi sat blankly at her desk for a long while before reaching out to place her hand on her pulse.
A moment later, my heart started racing, and I felt like it was going to jump out of my throat!
Fearing that something might be wrong, he took the pulse several more times.
She's actually pregnant!
Why did this child arrive so impatiently?
It took Jiang Zhizhi a while to accept the fact that there really was a little one growing inside her.
She patted her belly and couldn't help but laugh, muttering to herself, "You, look at you, you're such an impatient baby, you actually came here all by yourself."
As we pick up our pens again, we can't help but smile and write down our everyday musings. Finally, as we put pen to paper, we both miss you.
Smiling, she folded the letter, wondering what kind of surprise Zhou Xiye would have if he knew.
Jiang Zhizhi didn't tell Fang Hua about her pregnancy yet. The next day at noon, she went to see Jin Huaiying first, wanting him to help her confirm it.
After carefully taking her pulse, Jin Huaiying was also surprised: "It is said that your body is not easy to get pregnant, but it seems that you have taken good care of yourself in the past two years. Moreover, it is twins."
Jiang Zhizhi asked in surprise, "Two?"
Jin Huaiying smiled and nodded: "Yes, there are two, and they are very healthy."
Jiang Zhizhi grinned, but didn't know what to say. As she smiled, her eyes started to sting. "Teacher Jin, is that child healthy?"
Jin Huaiying was both amused and exasperated: "Look at you, silly child, didn't you hear me just now? I told you they are very healthy."
Jiang Zhizhi grinned again, then suddenly stood up: "Teacher Jin, I'm going home now. I'll come find you again when I have time."
Before Jin Huaiying could speak, Jiang Zhizhi had already happily gone out and ran off pushing her bicycle.
Jin Huaiying shook her head helplessly: "This child..."
As Jiang Zhizhi rode her bike along the road, she still felt a bit unreal. Finally, she sat down on a bench by the moat, reached out and touched her belly, and found that she was carrying two little babies.
That's absolutely amazing!
Thinking about it makes me smile again, my heart overflowing with tenderness.
After thinking about it, she decided to tell Fang Hua after a while, so that Fang Hua wouldn't get even more excited than her and then give her all sorts of supplements, making her a big fat person.
I sat by the river for a long time, wondering if I was carrying two boys or two girls? Or maybe one boy and one girl? Who would they look like?
Then she wondered, if Zhou Xiye knew, would he be very happy?
What kind of expression will he have?
Thinking of Zhou Xiye, Jiang Zhizhi's longing was about to overflow again, and her eyes welled up with tears.
As the sun began to set, Jiang Zhizhi rode her bike home.
At the entrance of the compound, I ran into Song Man, whom I hadn't seen in a long time.
Song Man was thinner than she had been two years ago; she looked so frail that a gust of wind could blow her away.
Jiang Zhizhi stopped the car and saw Song Man carrying a large bag. She asked curiously, "Sister Song Man, are you going on another business trip?"
Song Man smiled at Jiang Zhizhi: "I just went to your house to look for you, but your aunt said you weren't back. I was also saying that I wouldn't be able to say goodbye to you. I've been transferred to Guangzhou."
Jiang Zhizhi was shocked: "Why did you go so far away? I heard you were getting married."
Song Man shook her head: "I did plan to get married before, but I couldn't get over my own mental block. I'm a very awkward person, so I'd rather not hurt anyone else. I'm quite happy living alone."
Jiang Zhizhi exclaimed, "Then... you're leaving and never coming back?"
Song Man thought for a moment and said, "Pretty much. I'll come back if I have the chance. Zhizhi, I'm leaving now. I'll come back to see you guys when I have time."
Jiang Zhizhi's mind was a little sluggish, and for a moment she didn't know what to say, so she could only say dryly, "Sister Song Man, goodbye."
Song Man smiled and said, "Zhizhi, goodbye."
Jiang Zhizhi watched Song Man leave with her bag and felt a pang of loss. Another friend she knew had left Beijing!
Just then, Chen Limin came out of the courtyard. Looking at Song Man's almost disappeared figure, she angrily cursed, "Song Man, you heartless girl, you'd better never come back!"
