After preparing a meal for her young lady and lighting the stove to make sure everything was fine, Yang Fang went out with a lunch box.
Originally Shen Man was worried that she didn't know the way and couldn't find the way, so she wanted to go with her.
But Yang Fang refused, "Manman, just let it go. Yunxiang has already told me where it is."
"It's no problem for me to go alone. If you really don't know the way, I have a mouth. I can just ask someone."
"You are pregnant now, and you have been working hard for several days. You should take good care of yourself now. It is winter and it is freezing cold. What if you fall?"
Yang Fang smiled gently and reached out to tidy up the corner of Shen Man's clothes.
"Be obedient and stay at home and wait for mom to come back."
For a moment, Shen Man felt that her mother was treating her like a child and coaxing her. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she just let her be.
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home."
Yang Fang smiled more gently, "Okay."
After leaving the family hospital, Yang Fang followed the route Guo Yunxiang told her, carrying her lunch box and walking all the way to the military hospital.
Along the way, he asked for directions several times, and finally found the ward where Gu Qinglin was.
But when he reached the door, he was stopped by the guards at the door.
Yang Fang paused, smiled at the two of them, took out a letter of introduction from her pocket and handed it to them.
"I am the mother-in-law of Captain Gu. His wife is pregnant now and it is not convenient for her to come over. I came here to bring him food."
The guards saw that the letter of introduction was genuine, but they had never seen this person before, so they did not dare to let him in.
"Auntie, wait outside. I'll go in and ask what's going on."
Yang Fang nodded, "Okay, please go ahead, Zhi."
Seeing her gentle and polite tone and the lunch box in her hands, the two guards were half convinced, but they still wanted to ask about the details.
Push the door open and go in.
The man who was reading on the hospital bed thought it was the person he had been thinking about day and night when he heard the noise.
Gu Qinglin looked up subconsciously, and when he saw that it was a guard, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
"Captain, there's someone named Yang Fang outside who said your mother-in-law is here to bring you food."
Gu Qinglin was slightly stunned, then quickly looked outside the door, "Go and call the person in."
It seems that even his mother-in-law was shocked by his accident this time, and his parents probably know about it.
Yang Fang walked in and looked up to see a man lying on the hospital bed with a pale face and a weak body.
"Mom, when did you come?" Gu Qinglin put down the book in his hand and smiled at her.
"I just arrived this morning. I learned that Manman was pregnant with twins. I was afraid that you wouldn't understand anything, so I wanted to find a time to come over."
"I didn't expect to hear that you were seriously injured when I got here. I was almost scared to death."
"I didn't say hello to you before I came, so I almost couldn't get in. Fortunately, I met one of your comrades-in-arms. After he knew my identity, he took me to your family compound."
Yang Fang couldn't help but sigh, opened the lunch box in her hand, put it on the table beside the bed, and continued.
"You don't know, when I arrived one morning, I finally waited for Manman to come back at your next-door neighbor's house. But when I saw her, my nose couldn't help but feel sore and my eyes turned red."
"Manman has lost a lot of weight these days, and looks much more haggard, with dark circles under her eyes, which makes me sad just looking at her."
As she spoke, her eyes began to turn red again, and it seemed that she would cry in the next second.
Seeing his mother-in-law like this, Gu Qinglin felt uncomfortable.
He knew that during the time when he was seriously injured and unconscious, Shen Man had been staying by his side, taking good care of him, and she did not dare to relax for a moment.
Every time I heard her take care of him, stay up all night, and even stay with him while pregnant, just to see him wake up as soon as possible.
Gu Qinglin loves his wife very much.
As a man, he couldn't take care of his pregnant wife all the time, and he even asked her to take care of him. Even his mother-in-law gave up her job and children and ran to the army to take care of his wife.
Thinking of this, he felt even more ashamed to face his mother-in-law and his own wife.
"Mom, it's not a big deal for you to come here alone. The New Year is coming soon. I'll find someone to help send Mingchuan over. Next year, we can sit together as a family and have a good New Year."
Yang Fang hesitated for a moment. She loved her daughter and her son.
This time she really had no other choice, so she left her son alone at home. If there was a way, who would be willing to let their son, who was only in the first grade of junior high school, live alone.
Seeing her hesitation, Gu Qinglin continued, "Mom, Mingchuan is still young. You can't go back for a while. He will be alone at home. What if something happens?"
"I know someone on the train. Say hello to him. There will be train attendants watching Mingchuan the whole way from Pingxian to the military unit. When we get here, I'll send someone to pick him up."
"Safety and convenience are definitely guaranteed, you don't have to worry about these."
"It just so happens that Manman is pregnant now. I feel more relaxed with you and Mingchuan accompanying me."
He would be unable to get out of bed for at least a month or two, and would not be able to take care of his wife in many things. Naturally, he was willing to have two more people in the family.
Yang Fang didn't want to agree at first, but on New Year's Day, when the whole family is reunited, she would not bear to leave her son alone at home unless she had no other choice.
"Okay, then I'll trouble Qinglin for this matter."
Gu Qinglin smiled and said, "Mom, we are all family, there is no trouble."
"Besides, you came here to take care of my wife and to help us. I should be the one telling you about the trouble."
Yang Fang's brows relaxed and she put out the stewed chicken soup and the food. For a moment, the aroma of the food filled the ward, it was extremely fragrant.
"I specially made chicken soup for you and Manman today. How does it taste?"
Gu Qinglin did not eat immediately, but asked tentatively, "Mom, how is Manman feeling today?"
It was indeed he who did not handle Lin Yanqiu's matter properly and caused trouble for her.
It's normal for her to be angry at this point.
But she is pregnant now, and getting angry is not good for her health.
Yang Fang looked at him and sighed, "What are you talking about? Manman is not an unreasonable person. You should have made those things clear to her earlier. If you had made it clear in advance, maybe those things wouldn't have happened."
"Qinglin, you should know that no one can take care of a man whose life or death is unknown for several days while pregnant."
"Suddenly a woman appeared, pointed at her nose and cursed her, told her to get out with her child, and said that she and her man were a perfect match."
"Tell me, who can feel good inside?"
After a few words, the man was hit hard. Gu Qinglin felt more and more ashamed. He really felt sorry for his wife who had been pregnant and gave birth to him and worked hard day and night.
