Just as he expected, Huo Yue was stunned for only two seconds after hearing her older brother say that Ruan Ruan was pregnant. Then she shouted into the phone, and after shouting for almost 10 seconds, she realized that the call had already been disconnected.
"Huo Haocheng, you're a dog!"
After hanging up the phone, she stormed home, calling out, "Huanhuan, Huanhuan..."
When she arrived home, panting, Li Huan had already heard her cries and was waiting for her in the yard. As soon as he saw her, he asked, "Yueyue, what's wrong?"
At first, when Li Huan heard the sound, he thought something had happened to her. Now that he saw that even though she was tired from running, she still had a smile on her face, so it must be something good.
"Huanhuan, let me tell you, my older brother just called to say that Ruanruan is pregnant! Ugh! That bastard Huo Haocheng just told me that Ruanruan is pregnant and that it's inconvenient for them to come back for my wedding, and then he hung up. I'm so angry! He wouldn't even let me ask a few more questions." As she said this, she stomped her feet on the ground twice to express her dissatisfaction with Huo Haocheng.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Your older brother is only calling now, so he probably just found out. Besides, he's probably busy right now and can only say a few words. We'll call them back when Grandpa and Grandma are back."
Li Huan pulled the angry Huo Yue aside and analyzed the situation with her. The matter was as she had described. Huo Haocheng was indeed busy. After hanging up the phone, he told Commander Gu and returned to the regiment.
When he returned to the team, everyone else had already finished training for two events.
Seeing that he was late, and considering his condition that morning, the others pushed each other around, all wanting to know why he was late, but none of them dared to ask. In the end, having no other choice, they could only push Ruan Shaoke to ask, since he was her second brother-in-law. Ruan Ruan had always been very nice to her second brother, so they figured that even if he asked something he shouldn't, nothing would happen.
Seeing them pushing and shoving each other, Huo Haocheng parked his bicycle and came over. He couldn't stand it any longer and said, "Alright, ask whatever you want."
"Well, we just wanted to ask if you've encountered any problems?" Although they usually got along well, this was the first time Ruan Shaoke had so directly inquired about someone's private affairs, and he was a little embarrassed.
"Nothing much happened, except my wife found out she's pregnant, so I was wondering how to tell you guys." Of course, he wouldn't admit that he didn't tell you guys this morning because he heard that you shouldn't tell anyone during the first three months. If he dared to say that, he might be attacked by this group of people the next second.
"Really? So we're going to be uncles?" Upon hearing that Ruan Ruan was pregnant, Ruan Shaolin acted as if his wife were pregnant, immediately stepping forward to hug Huo Haocheng and asking happily.
"Let go first. You're two grown men, what are you hugging for? I can only hold my wife and child in my arms." Huo Haocheng could have dodged Ruan Shaolin's sudden action, but after thinking about it, he realized that this was his brother-in-law, and it wouldn't be appropriate to dodge. Besides, this idiot often hugged and carried people like this, so he let him hug him for a bit. But that was all he could do.
Everyone else was happy for him when they heard the news. They all knew how he treated his wife, so it was no wonder he acted that way in the morning, and they could understand why he suddenly rode his bike to the troupe.
"Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations Captain on becoming a father!" Following Ge Xiaotian's lead, the others also stepped forward to congratulate them.
Their commotion was so loud that the other soldiers in the regiment heard it and gathered around. After hearing several squad leaders congratulate Commander Huo on becoming a father, they all offered their blessings.
"Thanks....."
"Alright, congratulations, I've received it. Everyone, go back to training."
With so many people gathered together, it wasn't a good thing. Seeing more and more people coming, he immediately sent them away.
After they had all left, he pulled Gu Jinghe into the office.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jinghe, who had been pulled in, looked at him with a blank expression.
"I just wanted to ask what your Dr. Jiang needs to pay attention to during her pregnancy. Tell me so I can remember it." Huo Haocheng thought that Gu Jinghe's wife was already a few months pregnant, and pregnant women are all about the same. He would write down the symptoms first so he would have a way to deal with them later.
"My wife is pregnant. You saw it before, right? She didn't feel anything, but she really craved sour foods. Ruan Ruan taught my mom how to make hot and sour shredded potatoes and sauerkraut soup, and she's always loved them. By the way, both my mom and my mother-in-law said that pregnant women need to maintain a good mood at all times, which is very important to them."
Actually, if you ask Gu Jinghe, he's not really sure either. Anyway, he's always fine when he goes home to see his family's Dr. Jiang. She also gives him a ride to work in the morning, and everything is fine. Apart from being a little picky about food, there's nothing special about it.
Hearing Gu Jinghe say this, Huo Haocheng felt that he had asked the wrong person.
"Never mind, I won't ask you anymore. I'll ask my aunt when she gets back this afternoon."
Seeing that there was nothing to write down, he put the notebook he had taken out back, then picked up his hat and went outside.
He told Bai Sirui outside that he was going out for a bit, and then rode his bicycle out of the military headquarters.
When he arrived at the construction site, he saw that just a month ago the building was only half-finished, but now, after only one month, they were already starting to build the roof. The exterior of the supermarket not far away was already painted; it seemed like the project was going to be completed ahead of schedule!
"Huo Haocheng, what brings you here?" Chen Liang and Zheng Xuyang, who had just finished unloading a batch of materials, were about to return to the factory when they saw him standing there looking around.
"I came to Xuyang to discuss something." Seeing that they came out on their own, he didn't need to go in to look for them. To be honest, several buildings had been completed around here, and it would be difficult to find them by himself.
"What's up?" Could it be that she needs him to do something again? But that shouldn't be the case. Since she handed over the charity to him last time, I haven't heard of her going out to do anything.
"Well, my wife is pregnant, so I'm here to let you know. I'll need your help during this time. Please take care of her if needed, and don't bother her otherwise."
Zheng Xuyang finally understood. What he meant was that he shouldn't visit his wife unless there was something wrong, because his wife needed to rest during her pregnancy.
".....Fine." Zheng Xuyang rolled his eyes at him. They're just taking advantage of him because he's not married yet, trying to mess with him all they want. Just you wait, after he gets married, let's see how they mess with him then.
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Huo Haocheng did not linger, because he was afraid that Zheng Xuyang would hit him at this time. If he hit him, he could not fight back. He knew that he was in the wrong. Now that she was pregnant, she was still working in the fields. There were plenty of people working, but he just didn't want his wife to be too tired.
So after hearing Zheng Xuyang say it was okay, he got on his bike, turned around, and left.
Watching him leave, Chen Liang whispered in Zheng Xuyang's ear, "When did he become such a scoundrel?"
