After dinner, Lin Ping chatted with everyone for a while, then took out a booklet and read it to himself on the balcony.
Lin Yuyao was a little surprised, "Lin Ping, why are you so diligent? You even remember to memorize words when you ask for leave."
"It will be very useful. I will tell you when it is done."
At this time, Lin Dawei also came out to the balcony, "Lin Ping, what are you mumbling? It's like a spell. Your sister is pregnant, stop talking nonsense here."
Lin Ping had a speechless expression on his face. "What spell is that? Dad, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. I'm reading English and I'm memorizing words."
"English, why do you study this? It can drive away evil spirits."
"Tsk tsk, no one dislikes you for being uneducated, but it's your fault if you insist on annoying others."
Lin Dawei: “…”
Ye Lian also came out, "Alright, your father doesn't understand that's why he said that. If you understand then explain it to him. Why are you talking about him?"
"Oh, this is arranged by the higher-ups. I'm in a military academy, how can the country harm me? Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask, and I can't tell you even if you ask."
After hearing what he said, they tactfully stopped asking any more questions.
Lin Yuyao frowned.
I thought to myself, I'm studying English so hard, is this for the purpose of going abroad?
But with their status, they probably won't have any chance to go abroad in this lifetime.
Unless there is a special mission.
Lin Yuyao looked at Fu Huaiyi.
Fu Huaiyi whispered in her ear: "It may be related to studying abroad."
Lin Ping only had a few hours of leave, and Fu Huaiyi had to send him back in the afternoon.
On the way, Lin Ping asked, "Brother-in-law, when will my sister give birth?"
"Around the 10th of next month."
"Oh!" Lin Ping sighed, "I don't know if I can still take leave."
"Why did you ask for leave? There are so many of us, we can't let you accompany the birth."
Lin Ping: “…” That’s true.
"Brother-in-law, do you think I have a chance of being selected?"
"Do you want to be chosen?"
"Of course. Didn't you say that foreign technology is much better than ours? If I have the chance, I really want to go and see how much better they are than us."
"Yeah." Fu Huaiyi sighed and said, "The mission of our generation concerns the next two generations. If we lay a good foundation, the next generation may be able to catch up with the most advanced technology abroad."
"Will this work? The people on the other side of the ocean have been developing for more than a hundred years. The people of the Qing Dynasty were pedantic, so let's not talk about that time. Let's just talk about the last few decades. The small island next door has developed. While they are vigorously developing science, we are carrying out the Great Leap Forward and cultivating intellectuals..."
"Okay, Lin Ping, remember your identity. There are some things you can't say. The past is the past. No matter what, the fact that we have a quiet desk now is all earned by our ancestors with their blood and flesh. Remember, no one can change the past, only the future."
Lin Ping nodded heavily, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I must work hard to get this opportunity."
After saying that, he took out his little notebook and started memorizing words.
Fu Huaiyi saw the small words...
He silently slowed down and tried to drive more smoothly to prevent Lin Ping from vomiting all over the car.
…
It was already very late when Fu Huaiyi came back from sending Lin Ping. With no time to rest, he quickly boiled water for his wife to soak her feet. She also had to massage them to prevent them from swelling again.
The two chatted while getting a massage.
"Is Lin Ping preparing to go abroad?"
Fu Huaiyi nodded, "Yes, I don't know if it will work yet, he is trying for it now."
"This... is a mission?"
"Yes, they were sent out as exchange students, but they were sent as students from another school."
Lin Yuyao was shocked, "Is this something I should know?"
Fu Huaiyi smiled and said, "It's not that confidential. Don't worry, I won't tell you even if it's top secret."
Having said that, Lin Yuyao still felt that it would be better for her not to mention this matter.
"There will be three people in total, two from the school and one from our office."
"Ah? You guys are going too? As students?"
"Um."
Lin Yuyao looked at Fu Huaiyi and wondered if he really wasn't too old?
Fu Huaiyi: "Why are you looking at me? I'm not going."
In fact, if he hadn't been married, he would have applied to go.
But there's no need to tell her this.
"Who's going?" she asked curiously.
"I haven't decided yet. I must choose someone who is young, or at least looks young and has a youthful vibe."
The massage was almost done, and after Fu Huaiyi helped her onto the bed, he laid on her belly to listen to the movements of the little one.
The children got used to his voice and would interact with him once they heard him talking to his tummies.
Sometimes he stretches his hands, sometimes he stretches his legs.
Pregnancy is hard, especially with two children.
However, Fu Huaiyi participated in the whole process, making her feel that pregnancy was not just her business, but a matter for both of them.
This made her feel that pregnancy didn't seem so difficult.
Sometimes women are not afraid of giving birth, nor are they afraid of hardship and fatigue, but they are afraid that no matter how much they give, others will take it for granted.
Your efforts are never seen, and you always feel that you are not doing enough.
Every minute will suffocate you, every word will make you collapse, and make you live like a joke.
She originally planned to remain single for the rest of her life, but Fu Huaiyi was worth it.
…
In fact, Fu Huaiyi often had trouble sleeping these days, as Lu Jiangting's crazy words kept popping up in his mind.
The mother-in-law said that what he said was crazy, but Fu Huaiyi remembered that when he was pursuing Yaoyao, Yaoyao said that she had a terrible nightmare. She failed to break off the engagement with Lu Jiangting and was entangled with Lu Jiangting and Fang Qing for the rest of her life.
What Lu Jiangting said now, could it be... could it be that this madman Lu Jiangting also had the same dream?
Lin Yuyao was groggy and wanted to go to the bathroom. When she opened her eyes, she found that Fu Huaiyi was not asleep again.
"What's wrong with you lately?"
Fu Huaiyi came back to his senses and asked, "Did I wake you up?"
"No, I want to go to the bathroom."
"I'll help you go." Fu Huaiyi quickly hugged her and gave her strength.
He supported her and walked her to the bathroom. Lin Yuyao moved slowly and asked, "Do you think you have prenatal anxiety?"
Fu Huaiyi nodded: "Maybe, I... am indeed a little scared."
Lin Yuyao chuckled, "I'm not afraid, so why should you be afraid? I haven't suffered from prenatal anxiety, but you have."
Fu Huaiyi smiled and said, "Yes, yes, I am not as good as you."
Fu Huaiyi finally chose to say nothing. Yaoyao was about to give birth. If he told her now, what if she got scared and came back?
So forget it, let’s talk about it later.
