Who doesn’t like to be praised?
Yang Niannian was no exception. The two of them praised each other's business and the kitchen was filled with laughter.
Just as she was laughing happily, Lu Shishen walked out of the room and called Zheng Xinyue to answer Qin Aonan's call.
Zheng Xinyue was so excited that she rushed back to the room.
Yang Niannian noticed that Lu Shishen's expression was a little more serious than before, with his brows slightly furrowed.
She asked with concern, "Did Deputy Head Qin say anything? Why are you so serious?"
Lu Shishen frowned slightly, "Hu Qiaozhen gave birth prematurely. Because she was not sent to the hospital in time, only one of the three children survived. The other two were already dead when they were born."
Yang Niannian felt very sorry. The child was gone and there was no point in saying anything now.
"Is Hu Qiaozhen's life not in danger?"
Lu Shishen shook his head. "She's fine. It's just that the baby was born prematurely and is weak. He needs to be hospitalized for observation for a while. The military families donated some medical expenses to Captain Qi. I asked Ao Nan to donate for us as well."
"We should donate some money. The important thing is to save the child first." Although she had no friendship with Hu Qiaomei, Yang Niannian was still clear-headed about the matter of human life.
Unfortunately, the other two little lives paid the price for Hu Qiaozhen’s ignorance.
Nowadays, most women in the countryside give birth at home. With many children in the family, giving birth in a hospital is a considerable expense, and many people cannot afford it due to poverty.
In the 21st century, some of these elderly people who gave birth at home will use the experience of giving birth at home as a topic of conversation, using it to compare 21st century women who are too pretentious, and will not mention the women who suffered difficult labor or accidents at all.
Lu Shishen looked at Yang Niannian's tender and pretty face with serious eyes, his eyes full of concern. No one knew what he was thinking of, but he suddenly said something in a decisive tone.
"From now on, it will just be the two of us, and we don't want any children."
Yang Niannian almost thought she had misheard and looked at him strangely, "Why don't you want a child?"
Lu Shishen pursed his lips, "Your safety is important."
Yang Niannian understood that this guy was afraid that something would happen to her. A man who was not afraid of the sky falling was so afraid that something would happen to her that he didn't even want her to take the risk of having a child.
If she was not in this world, or if she suddenly traveled back in time miraculously, would Lu Shishen still be able to live well in this world?
Feeling a dull pain in her heart, Yang Niannian quickly put down the spatula and walked over to hug him.
He said it in a lighthearted tone.
"Don't think about these things. As long as you go to a big hospital to give birth, the chance of something going wrong is very low. The two cases that happened to you were because the children didn't have family members around to take care of them, and they didn't go to the hospital to give birth."
"Our family is rich, so we will go to the best hospital in Beijing to give birth to our child. If my physical condition is not good during pregnancy, I will go to the hospital to stay and take care of the fetus when I am seven months pregnant, and nothing will go wrong."
Lu Shishen lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Do you like children very much?"
Yang Niannian raised her head and said, "I like obedient children like Yueyue and An'an. Besides, I really want to have children of our own."
In his previous life, Lu Shishen never had a house full of children and grandchildren, so he cannot be left alone in this life.
If, in the unlikely event that she really went back in time by accident one day, Lu Shishen wouldn't be so lonely in this world.
Lu Shishen raised his hand and ruffled her hair, his throat rolling slightly twice, "Let's talk about it after you graduate."
Yang Niannian was about to speak when she suddenly noticed his body changes. Her face turned red and she quickly let go of him.
He muttered, "You old pervert, you better restrain yourself. It will be terrible if Xinyue sees you later."
Lu Shishen was a little embarrassed, and his expression became unnatural, "I'm going to the bathroom."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out, looking like he was running away.
Yang Niannian smiled secretly. She was wearing thick clothes in winter and nothing could be seen. She was just teasing Lu Shishen on purpose, but she didn't expect this guy to take it seriously.
Suddenly I smelled a burnt smell and suddenly remembered that there was braised pork in the pot. I quickly lifted the lid. Fortunately, the braised pork was not burnt seriously.
…
Zheng Xinyue and Qin Aonan talked on the phone for more than twenty minutes, and only hung up reluctantly after Yang Niannian had prepared the meal.
After talking on the phone with Qin Aonan, Zheng Xinyue was in high spirits and couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.
He would giggle from time to time while eating.
Yang Niannian asked casually, "Didn't Deputy Captain Qin go for field training? Why did he come back suddenly?"
Zheng Xinyue answered happily, "It seems like there is some mission, so I called him back in advance. He said that he might be away for a long time this time, but he has New Year leave this time, so he can spend some time with me."
When she said this, her mouth opened wide.
Zheng Xinyue was in a good mood and knew that Lu Shishen would report to the army tomorrow, so she took the initiative to clean up the dishes after dinner.
"You guys go wash up and go to bed! I'll clean up the pots and dishes."
As he said this, he winked at Yang Niannian secretly.
Yang Niannian didn't bother to be polite and pulled Lu Shishen back to the room.
Two days was a very short time, and even though she was reluctant, she had no choice but to accept the separation.
"Have you packed all your things? If you need anything, just call me. I'll come visit you when you're more stable in the army."
Lu Shishen nodded, "Don't worry about me. The weather is cold, take care of yourself and wear tights in class."
Yang Niannian just laughed it off, washed up and climbed onto the bed, snuggling in Lu Shishen's arms and sleeping soundly.
There was no class the next morning, so Yang Niannian didn't have to get up early. When she woke up, Lu Shishen had already left. There was a note on the pillow next to him, with just a few short words.
'I'm going to the army, there are buns in the pot.'
Yang Niannian stayed in bed for more than ten minutes before getting up. As usual, she didn't wear her pants. As soon as she opened the door and went out, she felt cold on her legs. She had no choice but to go back to the room and put on her pants.
It's fine if you don't wear this thing, but once you put it on, you can't take it off.
It's already past eight o'clock, and the sky is still gloomy. It looks like it's going to snow.
Zheng Xinyue had already gone to class. There were steamed buns and red bean porridge in the aluminum pot in the kitchen. Yang Niannian ate two buns and drank a bowl of red bean porridge, and her body felt warm.
I had nothing to do so I called the factory. After just two rings, I heard Miao Yu's voice on the other end.
"boss."
Yang Niannian responded, briefly chatted with Miao Yu about some accounting matters, and was about to hang up the phone when Miao Yu suddenly asked.
"Boss, do you want to ask Director Qu to come up and talk to you?"
Yang Niannian sensed something was wrong. Usually when she said to hang up, Miao Yu would never take the initiative to ask Qu Xiangyou to answer the phone.
She talks to Qu Xiangyou on the phone every week, and she talks more to him than to Lu Shishen. They just talked on the phone a few days ago, and everything was going smoothly at the factory... Could it be that something happened in Qu Xiangyou's family?
Thinking of this, she immediately asked tentatively.
"Is everything okay at home, Master Qu?"
