Chapter 178 Chapter 178
On the way back, Ye Qing was still thinking about it.
She just took a quick look and found that Wu Yueying's belly was as big as that of other women who were seven or eight months pregnant. Could she be pregnant with twins?
Moreover, we haven't seen each other for only half a year, and this woman has no self-control at all. She has eaten so many delicious foods that she has become abnormally fat. Even if she needs to replenish nutrition for a healthy pregnancy, she can't be so crazy, right?
Although he muttered to himself, Ye Qing didn't think too much about it, nor did he take his encounter with Wu Yueying to heart.
When passing by the Wu family's door, she saw Qin Xingzhi complaining to the villagers, scolding her sister-in-law for being so shameless that she didn't know her place after she got pregnant. Their family had been separated and her parents-in-law were divorced, but not only did this sister-in-law cheat her mother-in-law of her pension and squander it, she even wanted to take advantage of her pregnancy to cheat money from her father-in-law.
Ye Qing then realized why Wu Yueying came to Kaoshantun. She thought she was pregnant and that Wu Yongbing would give her money privately for the sake of his grandson.
The corners of Ye Qing's mouth twitched involuntarily. Thinking about it carefully, this was indeed something Wu Yueying could do.
This woman was corrupted by the habits she inherited from her family. She has no sense of right and wrong, and no concept of being abandoned by her family if she hurts them. She is only self-centered.
In her opinion, she was the only one who demanded things from her family, and the Wu family had to accommodate her and make sacrifices for her. There was no reason for them to hate or resent her, so even though her parents were even getting divorced because of her, she never felt that she was wrong, nor did she feel that she had let down her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law.
Originally, Ye Qing wanted to say something to Qin Xingzhi to remind her about Wu Yueying's incorrect way of nurturing the fetus, but seeing how Qin Xingzhi was filled with righteous indignation and how she hated Wu Yueying to the core, Ye Qing decided to give up.
Even if she kindly reminded her, Qin Xingzhi would never tell Wu Yueying. Now, the sister-in-law of the Wu family was probably hoping that her sister-in-law would be in trouble, and she would never get involved with Wu Yueying.
In the blink of an eye, it was Leon, and when heavy snow was falling at the foot of Changbai Mountain, the promotion of Gu Weidong to regiment leader was finally settled, and the news of his first-class merit quickly spread to the village.
The troops escorted the hero back to the village to celebrate with drums and gongs. Gu Weidong returned home wearing a bright red flowery robe. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic villagers.
This is a first-class merit. There are only a few people like this in the whole county. Everyone in Kaoshantun has shared in the honor.
Who wouldn't feel proud that such a person has emerged from their production brigade? In the future, when they brag about it outside, this one thing alone will make them stand up straight. Who wouldn't give a thumbs up when they hear the name of their Kaoshantun?
The Gu family members were even more proud.
Originally, the three big families of Wu, Zhao and Gu held the final say in the village. But with the emergence of Gu Weidong, the Wu and Zhao families had to take a step back and the Gu branch would take the dominant position in the village.
Although the Gu family would not do anything illegal under the name of Gu Weidong, when it comes to major and minor matters in the village, the Gu family would be more assertive when speaking out, and at least their words would definitely be more effective than those of other people.
At this moment, Wu Yongbing looked at Gu Weidong, who was in high spirits in the crowd, and he felt a breath of air stuck in his chest and felt very uncomfortable.
Such a good kid, who was clearly the future son-in-law chosen by their family, how could he be lost out of the blue?
If this really became his son-in-law, how glorious he would be as a father-in-law now! With a son-in-law who is a high-ranking officer in the army, he would be able to go anywhere in the future without any problems, right?
Thinking about that annoying young lady of his, even though they had completely severed ties and no longer had any contact, and comparing it with the proud and proud look of the Gu family now, Wu Yongbing really regretted it so much that his intestines almost turned green.
He became the head of a regiment at the age of 25. It is likely that Gu Weidong will climb to the position of general commander in the future. His daughter was really blind. She insisted on breaking off the engagement with her fiancé and ended up missing out on such a valuable potential stock!
Such a big happy event naturally could not be known only by the people in Kaoshantun. Soon this big news spread to the neighboring military farm. The next day, when the Gu family hosted a banquet in Kaoshantun to entertain guests, even Zhao Yuliang sent a gift.
Wu Yueying, who was recuperating in the military farm family compound, naturally could not have failed to hear the news.
So, that night, Ye Qing was sleeping soundly in the quilt, when suddenly there was a rapid knock on the door. The two wolf cubs in the yard stood up and howled at the outside as a warning, which meant that the person who came was not an acquaintance who often visited the Ye family.
"Who is this late at night?"
Before Ye Qing moved, Wang Chunhua in the other compartment went to open the door while mumbling, but soon she shouted towards the east compartment:
"Master, are you awake?"
Ye Qing hurriedly got up, dressed and went out to check the situation. When he opened the door, he saw heavy snow falling outside, and Wang Chunhua walked in with a shivering aunt. After seeing who it was, Ye Qing was stunned.
"Auntie Wu, why are you here so late at night?"
Yes, the person who came was the aunt of the Wu family who divorced Wu Yongbing at the beginning of the year. When she saw Ye Qing, the old lady immediately rushed up and grabbed Ye Qing's hand, crying and begging:
"Ye Zhiqing, please help me and go to the town with my aunt!"
"My daughter Yueying went into premature labor. Her water broke but she couldn't deliver the baby. The doctor in town said there was nothing we could do and asked us to send her to the county!"
"But it's winter and the snow outside is so thick that the roads are blocked and the car can't get out. How can we send the person to the county? Auntie can only come to you to beg you. Please help our Yueying to give birth. Auntie, please!"
Ye Qing looked outside and saw that the yard was already covered with snow. In just one night, the snow was estimated to be a foot deep. The weather was so cold that it was not realistic to send the woman in labor to the county overnight.
Ye Qing was not fond of Wu Yueying, but the person who came to her for help was Aunt Wu, who had taken her in when she first went to the countryside. Ye Qing was reluctant to refuse, so after thinking about it, she agreed to the other party's request and decided to go to the town's health center with the old lady.
However, just as Ye Qing put on his military coat and was about to go out with this Aunt Wu, a tall figure walked out from the yard next door.
"I'll go with you!"
The person who came out was Gu Weidong. This guy must have heard the noise coming from the Zou family and knew that Ye Qing had to go out for a medical consultation late at night. He was afraid that she couldn't handle it alone, so he quickly put on thick equipment and followed her out.
Ye Qing thought about it and nodded in agreement.
After all, she was not familiar with this Aunt Wu, and she had not lived in the village since her divorce from Wu Yongbing. She came to her suddenly. What if there was a scam? Ye Qing was afraid of getting into trouble. If Gu Weidong could accompany her, that would be the best.
Since the health station was built, Ye Qing had to go out for night consultations several times. According to custom, Ye Qing would usually ask two apprentices to accompany him.
Originally, Wang Chunhua planned to wake Zheng Xin up and go to the clinic with Ye Qing, but now Gu Weidong volunteered to be the flower protector, so Wang Chunhua immediately retreated with interest.
These two are dating, so she should stop being a third wheel and just go back to her warm bed and sleep.
When Auntie Wu saw Gu Weidong, the expression on her face suddenly became extremely complicated.
She also heard about Gu Weidong's promotion to group leader. It was this news that reached the family home, which caused a huge shock to Wu Yueying, causing the hot-tempered Wu Yueying to explode in anger. She broke her amniotic fluid in the excitement, leading to her current difficult delivery.
So when Aunt Wu saw the culprit who harmed her daughter, she must have felt unhappy.
But at this moment, Gu Weidong was about to move closer to her, and as soon as he arrived, he firmly grabbed Ye Qing's arm and made a protective gesture. Ye Qing also trusted Gu Weidong wholeheartedly. The interaction between the two was very natural, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that these two were definitely not just ordinary friends.
When Aunt Wu left the village, Ye Qing had not yet announced her "dating partner" to the public, so Aunt Wu was not aware of the relationship between Ye Qing and Gu Weidong. But now seeing the two of them being so intimate in every move, she immediately noticed something was wrong and subconsciously asked:
"Are you two talking about a partner?"
Before Ye Qing could respond, Gu Weidong asked back, "We are both unmarried, is there any problem with dating?"
Aunt Wu was choked up for a moment, and she opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
Looking at the burly and imposing Gu Weidong in front of her, and then comparing him with her current son-in-law, regret, hatred, shame, embarrassment and reluctance, all kinds of mixed emotions surged up at once, and Aunt Wu lost her mind for a moment.
The poor boy in front of her, whom she once looked down upon in every way, has suddenly become a young senior official who is far beyond the reach of others. However, the city son-in-law, who her daughter claimed to be from a wealthy family, is now still working hard on the farm, farming and doing experiments. It is almost self-evident who has a better future.
If she had known earlier, if she had known earlier that this kid from the Gu family would have such great fortune, she would never have let her daughter break off the engagement with this kid even at the risk of death!
How could her Yueying be so confused?
Ye Qing had no idea that even at this point, his aunt was still here, worrying about gains and losses and fussing over all sorts of trivial matters.
Seeing the old lady standing there motionless in the snow, she quickly reminded her:
"Auntie, let's go quickly. If we delay any longer, the snow will get deeper and deeper and we won't be able to walk!"
