The next morning, just after daybreak, Lu Shiyi started training with the team. He was a little absent-minded while running today.
Lin Zitao ran over from behind and asked about Lu Shiyi and Su Jin's medical results.
"We have to get the results today, Lao Lin. I might become a father." Lu Shiyi has been fighting on the front line for many years and no longer cares about his own life or death. After getting married, he wants to live with Su Jin and the children.
"We'll be on fewer missions now, so we can spend more time with our family." Lin Zitao whispered, "Your sister-in-law can also help your brother and sister-in-law. Raising the child well is the most important thing."
Lu Shiyi's eyes sparkled with joy: "Were you this happy when you first became a father?"
"Happy. I went on a mission on the third day. When I came back, your sister-in-law had finished her confinement." Lin Zitao remembered that when he came back and saw the little Lin Lei, he was so excited that he couldn't suppress it.
Lin Zitao mentioned his excitement when he first met Lin Zitao, and Lu Shiyi also deeply felt it.
"I hope I can accompany Xiaojin through her confinement." Lu Shiyi looked at Lin Zitao, "I just hope I don't have any missions recently."
"Your rank is not high enough, so I won't assign you any missions." Lin Zitao made the arrangements. "You can just go home more often to watch over them. Even if those people want to cause trouble, they can still do it with Xiaojin's pregnancy as a cover."
Wu Jun often arranged for Lu Shiyi and Lin Zitao to go out to do things on the pretext of retirement, while he stayed in the office.
"I've been asking you for help lately." Lin Zitao was dealing with the investigation team, and he couldn't get more than three sentences out of them before they started arguing. "Those people are always looking for loopholes in my words. I don't want to deal with them."
"Okay, no problem." Lin Zitao patted his shoulder and said, "Shi Yi, go to the county town to buy milk powder. Don't waste your monthly milk powder coupons. I don't know what the harvest will be like this year."
Lu Shiyi listened carefully and said, "I've written it all down."
After the morning training, Lu Shiyi took the newly issued bills from the office, went to the cafeteria to get breakfast and went home.
When he got home, Su Jin was still asleep. He put down his breakfast and sorted the tickets into a box in his bedroom. He put the milk and meat tickets on his body, thinking about buying more things at the supply and marketing cooperative today.
After confirming that Su Jin was pregnant, she needed to supplement her nutrition.
After eight o'clock, Lu Shiyi changed into casual clothes, sat on the edge of the bed and whispered to Su Jin to get up.
"Ayi, you've taken another day off today?" Su Jin drowsily opened her eyes and looked at the clock. It was already past eight o'clock. "We need to go and hear the results."
Lu Shiyi reached out and patted her on the back: "Wife, after we get the results, let's go to the county town to buy milk powder and nutritional supplements."
After breakfast, Lu Shiyi took Su Jin's hand and went to the hospital. The two decided to take a walk first. The family compound was not far from the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Ayi, don't buy milk powder. I don't need the milk powder coupons." Su Jin looked at Lu Shiyi, "I'll just eat normally."
Lu Shiyi hummed, "Every meal must include meat, and you can't overwork yourself."
Lu Shiyi was too excited last night and didn't sleep well. He carefully read the pregnancy handbook he brought home from the hospital.
The two arrived at the hospital, and Su Jin nervously pulled his sleeve.
"I'm here!" Lu Shiyi accompanied Su Jin into Wang Boya's office.
"Lu Bu, sister-in-law, congratulations to you two." Wang Boya said with a smile, "You are going to be a father and a mother."
Su Jin stared at him happily: "Ayi, we are really going to be parents."
"Call Mom and Dad first." Lu Shiyi spun Su Jin around in his arms. "Grandpa and Grandma will definitely be very happy. This is the first good news this year."
"Minister Lu, you should bring your sister-in-law for a checkup every month," Wang Boya advised Lu Shiyi, "Don't be like some sisters-in-law who only need a checkup twice."
"As long as I'm not on a mission, I'll come with you every month." Lu Shiyi publicly promised, "Even if I'm not in the family compound, I'll arrange for Sister Yunfeng to accompany you."
Wang Boya agreed: "I won't reveal my sister-in-law's situation."
The two men left the hospital with the medical records, both with smiles on their faces, talking as they walked out.
There were fewer people on the street. Lu Shiyi asked Su Jin to walk on the inside of the street and carried a bamboo basket behind him.
"Let's go buy some pork belly and a chicken later." Lu Shiyi and Su Jin discussed, "Then we'll go to the post office and call home."
"My parents are at work, and my grandparents are at home. Grandpa won't go to the yard to play chess right now." Lu Shiyi muttered, and Lu Shicheng hinted that the situation in the capital was not good, and the old men no longer visited each other.
The post office was open today, and a team of people wearing red armbands came out carrying several sacks of things and burned the letters in the sacks in the street.
"Comrade, I'm calling the imperial capital." Lu Shiyi looked at the post office staff and said, "Use military line."
"Please go to number 3." The post office staff registered him and handed him the number plate.
The two went to the telephone room, and Lu Shiyi called home. Grandma Lu picked up the phone after it rang three times.
"Grandma, I'm Xiaoyi." Lu Shiyi heard his grandmother's voice, "Xiaojin is pregnant, grandma, it's already January."
"Really?!" Grandma Lu asked in surprise, "Is Xiaojin in good health? You should take good care of Xiaojin. Health is the most important thing. Why didn't you mention Xiaojin's young age before and wait a few years?"
"Grandma, this is an accident. I will take good care of Xiaojin." Lu Shiyi assured Grandma Lu, "I'll let Xiaojin talk to you."
Su Jin picked up the phone: "Grandma, this is Xiao Jin."
Lu Shiyi was waiting on the side while Su Jin and Grandma Lu were chatting happily. After 20 minutes, Lu Shiyi pushed the door open and came in.
"Xiao Jin, it's time for us to go to the supply and marketing cooperative." Lu Shiyi was standing outside waiting and noticed that the staff looked over here several times.
Su Jin obediently said goodbye to Grandma Lu. After hanging up the phone, Lu Shiyi went to the counter to pay the bill, and then the two went to the supply and marketing cooperative next door.
In the supply and marketing cooperative, many military wives were shopping. When they saw the couple, they all greeted them.
Yesterday was the day when everyone received their allowances. In addition to buying things, the military wives also had to mail their pensions home.
"Xiao Jin, are you feeling better?" Yun Feng saw Xiao Jin coming over and immediately asked her in a low voice.
"Sister-in-law, Xiaojin has been shipped by sea. Please take care of her from now on." Lu Shiyi quietly told Yunfeng, "I will officially go back to work tomorrow."
"Congratulations, you two! Leave it to me." Yun Feng assured Lu Shiyi, "You two should go buy some food quickly to give Xiao Jin some nutrition."
After listening carefully to Yunfeng's instructions, Lu Shiyi bought things according to what Yunfeng said.
"Ayi, buy some more pig's trotters." Su Jin turned to look at Lu Shiyi, "I want to eat braised pig's trotters."
"After buying the pork belly, let's ask if this can be sold together?" Lu Shiyi comforted Su Jin and turned to look at the stall owner.
