Chapter 88, Second Update (End of Main Text...)
Yan Ruyi didn't have time to pay attention to Shen Zhimin. Seeing Jiang Dongming and another person of similar age downstairs, she got Gu Shusheng's permission, put her bag aside, and went downstairs as well.
As soon as she went downstairs, Jiang Dongming and another person exclaimed with delight, "We found the epitaph!"
Yan Ruyi, “…”
Should I say she's incredibly lucky?
Gu Shusheng said, "I knew it! Ruyi is our archaeological team's lucky star. Otherwise, why would I have called her over?"
Yan Ruyi felt that Captain Gu had called her over to be the mascot.
However, finding an epitaph is always a good thing.
The epitaph is intact and the writing is clear.
Jiang Dongming and his team quickly deduced that the tomb was indeed that of Princess Shou'an, and her life story was basically consistent with the records in unofficial histories.
Because he was greatly favored by Empress Wei during his lifetime, Empress Wei was very grieved after his untimely death. She buried a large amount of gold and silver jewelry with him and sent 20 households to guard his tomb.
But so much time has passed, history has changed, and the people of the tomb-guarding village no longer know what they are guarding.
Yan Ruyi stayed for a week before returning home.
She learned a lot from Jiang Dongming and the others during that week.
Calling Yan Ruyi over was also Jiang Dongming's idea. The layout of this tomb is different from other tombs, and every burial object unearthed is a national treasure. Jiang Dongming also wanted Yan Ruyi to come and gain some experience.
When Yan Ruyi left, Gu Shusheng was reluctant to let her go, and repeatedly said to her, "Comrade Yan Ruyi, if you ever don't want to work at Jialide anymore, you must come to our archaeological team. The door of the archaeological team will always be open for you."
Yan Ruyi smiled and replied, "Okay."
She visited the village where the tomb was guarded before she left.
Yan Fuhua and his team had their weaving factory right at the entrance of the village, where a dozen or so women were weaving things in the courtyard.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Yan Fuhua saw her. "Ruyi's here!"
"Sister Yan, I'm going back now. I just wanted to let you know."
Yan Fuhua pulled her into his office and took out a large bag. “It contains some mountain produce. It wasn’t bought with money. We picked it ourselves from the mountains. It’s all dried and will keep well. Take it with you when you leave.”
"Sister Yan, I can't carry all this stuff."
“Why can’t you carry it? It’s all dried out, it’s not heavy. You have to catch your train, so I won’t keep you any longer. I’ll show you around the factory and then drive you to town.”
Yan Fuhua was a man of great efficiency. She took Yan Ruyi for a quick tour of the factory, and then, without saying a word, put the bag of mountain produce into the car. After Yan Ruyi got in, she drove towards the town.
Upon arriving in town, they carried the bag to the car where Yan Ruyi was sitting.
Unable to refuse such hospitality, Yan Ruyi had no choice but to accept it, saying, "Thank you, Sister Yan."
"No need to thank me, I'll come again when I have the chance."
Not long after Yan Ruyi returned to Beijing, she went to take her driver's license test.
First came the theory test, then the parking test, and finally the road test. After passing all of them, I received my internship certificate.
It will take a year before you can get a full driver's license.
Even with an intern's certificate, you can still drive on the road.
Yan Ruyi was highly skilled and daring; she drove to the machine tool factory's residential compound as soon as she got her driver's license.
As soon as he entered, he held up his driver's license and announced to everyone, "I've got my driver's license. I'll be driving today at noon. Let's go to Yuexianglou to eat lobster."
Ye Hongzhen, "You can drive right after you got this little certificate?"
"This little booklet is the permit to open a business; once you have it, you can open a business."
Yan Guoqiang was a little skeptical of his daughter's driving skills, but Song Yiping, being very perceptive, said, "I'll sit in the passenger seat."
With his daughter and son-in-law there to keep things in order, Yan Guoqiang felt half at ease and boldly decided to ride in his daughter's car to eat that giant lobster that was as long as his arm.
Before getting into the car, she was still worried, so she pulled Song Yiping aside and whispered to him, "When Ruyi is driving, you have to keep a close eye on her. Sometimes she's too confident and a bit daring."
Song Yiping thought to himself that his father-in-law understood his wife best.
His wife is exceptionally confident and daring; give her a rocket and she'd dare to fly it into the sky, even if you just touched it from top to bottom.
He comforted his father-in-law, saying, "The fact that Mom was able to pass the driving test means that her skills are up to par, and I was sitting right next to her."
Ye Hongzhen said, "What's there to be afraid of if my daughter is driving? If you don't want to ride, I will."
If her daughter dares to drive, she dares to ride in it.
The first one to get on the bus.
After Yan Guoqiang and Yan Minghe got in, Yan Ruyi patted the steering wheel and said, "Let's go."
Her personal three-year plan is to get a driver's license, get a master's degree, and have a child.
One has been completed so far.
Three years later, I successfully obtained my postgraduate degree.
Now all that's missing is a baby.
Yan Ruyi took a shower and crawled into bed.
Although they have been married for a long time, today is the first time she has engaged in close combat with Song Yiping since their marriage.
During the day, she even secretly flipped through that ancestral book of fighting illustrations.
But they discovered that someone had touched the book.
It was just her and Song Yiping at home, so it was obvious who had touched that book.
Yan Ruyi wanted to see what learning tips he had today.
Song Yiping came in from outside after taking a shower.
She put on her pajamas as she walked.
Why bother wearing anything? I'll just have to take it off later anyway.
Seeing Yan Ruyi staring at him expectantly, Song Yiping, with great tact, went over and said, "Go ahead and touch her."
Yan Ruyi chuckled and touched his abs. "Comrade Song Yiping, I need to discuss something with you."
"explain."
Let's have a baby.
Song Yiping quickly got into bed, slipped under the covers, and responded to her with his actions.
...
"Comrade Song Yiping, did you secretly look at that book of fighting pictures?"
"I've read it, and today I can finally put what I've learned to use."
...
As expected of the skills passed down from their ancestors, and with the addition of Song Yiping, a self-taught and talented student, Yan Ruyi finally collapsed onto the bed.
More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
When Yan Ruyi got home from get off work, she lay down on the bed.
Song Yiping came over and massaged her arms and legs. "Are you tired?"
"I haven't had much work to do these past few days, but I still feel tired."
Song Yiping paused in his massage of her leg, then calculated the days, "Your period hasn't come this month, has it?"
Yan Ruyi suddenly sat up.
Her periods are usually very regular, but sometimes she doesn't remember the dates.
Song Yiping did remember them all.
Based on previous dates, her period is already a week late this month.
Yan Ruyi touched her stomach. "Could I be pregnant?"
Song Yiping decisively pulled her out of bed, "Let's go to the hospital for a urine test."
Yan Ruyi checked the time. "The hospital only has an emergency room at night, so urine tests can't be done then."
"Then I'll go there as soon as the hospital opens tomorrow morning."
Yan Ruyi touched her belly repeatedly, feeling that she was definitely pregnant without even needing a test.
Her periods are always very regular, and last month, she and Song Yiping had been quite intimate in bed without taking any precautions.
However, everyone says that you will have morning sickness when you first get pregnant, but she didn't feel any of it. Apart from being a little tired, she still had a good appetite.
The next day happened to be Sunday, and the two went to the hospital early in the morning.
Song Yiping registered and then went to the gynecology department with Yan Ruyi.
Doctor, "It's very likely you're pregnant. Let's do a urine test."
After Song Yiping paid the bill, Yan Ruyi went to have her urine tested.
The report wouldn't be ready for a while, so the two sat down on chairs near the lab.
“When my second sister-in-law first got pregnant, she vomited terribly, but my eldest sister-in-law didn’t vomit. I think I should be like my eldest sister-in-law.”
Song Yiping also hoped that Yan Ruyi would resemble his sister-in-law, otherwise she would suffer too much.
The report came out quickly, and the lab technician called out a name while holding the report, "Yan Ruyi, come and get your lab report."
Song Yiping stood up and walked over quickly, and saw that the test report said "positive".
During this time, he learned a lot about this topic and knew that a "positive" result meant he was pregnant.
Yan Ruyi also came over, took the test results, and said happily, "We're having a baby! I'm going to call Mom."
Song Yiping stopped her, "Let the doctor examine you before you get vaccinated."
The two then went to the doctor.
The doctor took the test results and said, "You're pregnant."
Song Yiping was most concerned about Yan Ruyi's morning sickness.
"Doctor, my wife hasn't had any morning sickness. Does that mean she'll stop experiencing it later?"
It was rare to find a male colleague who cared about the pregnant woman's morning sickness, and the doctor's attitude became much kinder.
"Your wife has just become pregnant, and it's hard to say whether she will experience morning sickness. Some women may not start experiencing morning sickness until they are more than two months pregnant, and of course, it is also possible that they will not experience morning sickness until they give birth. However, don't worry too much. Morning sickness is a normal physiological reaction for pregnant women. As long as it is not too severe, it will be fine."
Song Yiping, "What level of vomiting is considered extremely severe?"
"For example, if someone vomits everything they eat, or even just drinks water, or even vomits bile, this can easily lead to malnutrition, and they should be taken to the hospital for intravenous nutrition in time."
Song Yiping was visibly nervous. "Does this kind of situation happen often?"
The doctor smiled and said, "There are definitely some, but not many. Just pay more attention in your daily life, and come to the hospital as soon as you notice anything wrong."
Are there any other things I should be aware of?
"Supplement your nutrition appropriately, get plenty of rest, avoid overexertion, and avoid strenuous exercise, especially during the first and last three months of pregnancy. Avoid sexual intercourse during these times as well. If you do have intercourse at other times, pay attention to the intensity and position to avoid putting pressure on the baby."
Yan Ruyi's face turned bright red instantly; she was too embarrassed to listen.
Song Yiping listened very attentively, almost as if he were taking notes of everything the doctor said.
Are there any doctors left?
"No, it's best to make a medical record at the hospital and then come to the hospital for regular check-ups."
Where should I create my file?
"Go to the maternal and child health department next door."
After leaving the gynecology department, the two went to the maternal and child health department to register. The doctor told them to come back next month for a prenatal checkup.
Once in the car, Yan Ruyi excitedly urged Song Yiping, "Go home quickly and call Mom to tell her the good news."
Both mothers knew she was pursuing a master's degree, so they didn't pressure her about her children.
But deep down, he was probably anxious too.
Now that I'm pregnant, I'll call them to make them happy.
Song Yiping drove home steadily. As soon as Yan Ruyi entered the house, she dialed Ye Hongzhen's number. "Uncle Li, this is Ruyi. Could you please call my mom?"
"Your mom just went over there. Wait a moment, I'll call her."
Grandpa Li poked his head out of the phone booth and said, "Ye Hongzhen, Ruyi is calling."
Ye Hongzhen and Zhao Cuifang were about to go grocery shopping when they heard Grandpa Li calling them. Ye Hongzhen shoved the grocery basket into Zhao Cuifang's hand and went to the phone booth.
"Ruyi, why are you calling so early?"
"Mom, you're going to be a grandma!"
Ye Hongzhen asked in surprise, "You've already gone to the hospital for a test?"
"It's been tested. Yiping and I just got back from the hospital."
This was a wonderful surprise! Ye Hongzhen hadn't forgotten her in-laws. "Have you told your mother-in-law yet?"
"Not yet, I just got back."
"Then hang up the phone and call your mother-in-law to make her happy too."
The task of calling Fang Yuru was left to Song Yiping.
After Song Yiping called Fang Yuru, Yan Ruyi asked Song Yiping with a hopeful look, "Do you think it's a daughter or a son?"
Song Yiping had no particular attachment to either a son or a daughter.
He loves all of Yan Ruyi's children.
If he had to choose one, influenced by Miaomiao, he would choose the daughter.
Yan Ruyi, like Song Yiping, was not as old-fashioned as her second sister-in-law.
Yan Ruyi's belly grew bigger day by day, and she went to the hospital for regular check-ups as advised by her doctor.
She never experienced morning sickness.
Even before being born, the child was so considerate of his mother, which made Song Yiping quite satisfied with him.
Fang Yuru was worried, so when Yan Ruyi's due date was approaching, she brought her to the military compound and transferred her pregnancy test records to the military hospital as well.
Fang Yuru then gave her a full body checkup.
Song Yiping said, "Mom, why don't we let her be hospitalized earlier?"
"There's no need to check in in advance. No matter how good the hospital is, it's not as convenient as home. Besides, our home isn't far from the hospital, so we can get to the hospital in time if there's any trouble."
Yan Ruyi's stomach started hurting in the morning.
Song Yiping picked her up and ran downstairs.
Fang Yuru had already prepared everything. When Song Yiping carried Yan Ruyi into the car, she also took her things and got in the car.
Their home is only a 10-minute drive from the military hospital.
By the time they arrived at the hospital, Yan Ruyi's stomach pain had subsided.
However, the pain relief was only temporary. Later, she experienced waves of pain with increasingly shorter intervals. After examining her, the doctor moved her to the delivery room.
Song Chengren also rushed over, and the three of them stood guard at the entrance of the delivery room.
Song Yiping stood there solemnly, motionless, his palms sweaty.
Fang Yuru comforted him, "Don't worry, Ruyi has already had a check-up. She's in good health, her weight is under control, the baby isn't too big, and the baby's position is normal. There won't be any problems. It's just that this is her first pregnancy, so the delivery won't be as fast."
That's what she said, but she was also constantly worried.
If she weren't worried about Song Yiping overthinking things, she would have been pacing around the delivery room entrance long ago.
Song Yiping felt like an eternity had passed before the delivery room door finally opened, and the doctor came out carrying the baby. "Yan Ruyi's family!"
For the first time, Song Yiping felt his legs go weak. He stepped forward and said, "It is I!"
"She gave birth to a boy, and both mother and child are safe!"
