Yan Duo'er knew that Ye Zhaozhao and the others had come to buy quilt covers, so she took out the best quilt covers in the store, looking at the bright red quilt covers printed with the character "囍" (double happiness).
Jiang Tong blushed slightly. While Jiang Tong was choosing a quilt cover, Yan Duo'er chatted with Ye Zhaozhao.
"Sister Zhao Zhao, how many months pregnant have you been?"
Yan Duo'er looked at Ye Zhaozhao with envy, wishing she could get pregnant too. Xie Jianing, who was standing next to her, was straightforward.
"Zhaozhao is over five months pregnant. If you want to have another child, you should too."
Yan Duo'er sighed. Since they were all family, she told them her troubles. She had been married for three months, but there was no sign of pregnancy.
"You've only been here for three months, what's the rush?"
Xie Jianing joked that Yan Duo'er wasn't in a hurry, but she was afraid that if she couldn't have children, women who couldn't have children wouldn't be respected in this era.
Ye Zhaozhao understood Yan Duo'er's feelings and suggested that she visit her on the weekend so she could take a look at her.
Yan Duo'er was surprised that Ye Zhaozhao was also skilled in medicine; this was truly amazing.
"Remember to come with your man."
"My man is going too?"
Ye Zhaozhao thought that the inability to have children might not be Yan Duo'er's problem. Nowadays, people tend to blame women for not being able to have children, and it's the same for men.
"Okay, I'll go with him later."
Yan Duo'er readily agreed. Knowing that Jiang Tong was Ye Zhaozhao's friend, Yan Duo'er paid her the cheapest price.
Jiang Tong was overjoyed to have bought the bedsheet he wanted, and he also bought some other things to thank Xie Jianing and Ye Zhaozhao.
Jiang Tong invited the two to eat at a state-run restaurant before returning home. When Ye Zhaozhao and Xie Jianing returned to the family compound, they saw Sun Xiuhua fighting with someone.
"I'll beat you to death for talking nonsense, so you can talk nonsense again."
As they got closer, the two realized that the person fighting with Sun Xiuhua was Su Lingling. Sun Xiuhua was usually very good at working and had great strength, which Su Lingling couldn't handle at all.
Seeing that Sun Xiuhua hadn't suffered any losses, Ye Zhaozhao and Xie Jianing waited until she had finished beating her before stepping forward to separate the two.
"Sister-in-law Sun, what's wrong?"
Ye Zhaozhao felt that Sun Xiuhua was not such an impulsive person; it must have been Su Lingling who said something she shouldn't have.
Sure enough, when Su Lingling went out and saw Gu Yunduan doing housework, she was so shocked that her mouth almost fell off. She never expected that Gu Yunduan, a regimental commander, would have to do housework.
She said Ye Zhaozhao was a hedonist, and Sun Xiuhua couldn't stand it when she heard her say that about Ye Zhaozhao, so the two of them started fighting.
In Su Lingling's mind, it's wrong for men to do housework; they're meant to fight on the battlefield, not do housework. Ye Zhaozhao thought this woman was crazy.
"Who says men can't do housework? You call me a hedonist? That's slander against military families. Do you believe I'll report you to the Central Military Commission?"
Su Lingling is the kind of person who's all talk and no action. When it comes to actually doing something, she gets scared. As soon as she heard that Ye Zhaozhao was going to find someone from the Military Commission, she ran faster than a rabbit.
"She was lucky she ran fast."
Sun Xiuhua spat at her back, while Ye Zhaozhao held Sun Xiuhua's hand.
“Sister-in-law Sun, if you act so impulsively again, especially while you're pregnant.”
Only after Ye Zhaozhao said that did Sun Xiuhua remember that she was pregnant, all because of Su Lingling.
Ye Zhaozhao took her pulse and found that everything was fine, which put her at ease.
That evening, Zhou Dawu learned that she had fought with Su Lingling and couldn't help but say a few words to her. Sun Xiuhua was in the wrong and could only let him say what he wanted.
"Stay away from Su Lingling in the future, and tell the other military wives not to get too close to her either."
"Old Zhou, do you know something? Could Su Lingling be a spy?"
Having been a military wife for so many years, Sun Xiuhua was already experienced. Zhou Dawu shook his head when he saw her like this.
"I don't know, don't overthink it, go to sleep."
Sun Xiuhua wanted to say that she wasn't sleepy yet, but then she remembered Ye Zhaozhao saying that pregnant women need to get enough sleep, so she had to go to sleep first.
The next day, Su Lingling went out and found that no one was talking to her. She didn't know what was wrong. After several days, she realized that she was being isolated.
Over the weekend, Yan Duo'er brought her husband over, along with some malted milk powder, mung bean cakes, and White Rabbit milk candy.
Ye Zhaozhao made a cup of tea for the two of them and asked them to sit down.
Yan Duo'er's man is named Zhang Xin. He works at a machinery factory. He had heard Yan Duo'er mention Ye Zhaozhao before and they had chatted for a while.
Ye Zhaozhao took the pulses of the two people first. Yan Duo'er was fine, so the problem was with Zhang Xin. Ye Zhaozhao took his pulse and found that it was indeed the case.
"Comrade Ye, is it my problem?"
Zhang Xin didn't expect it to be his own fault. Luckily he came this time, otherwise Duo'er would have had to take the blame for him. Ye Zhaozhao nodded.
"Your reproductive system function has weakened because of smoking and drinking. The first thing you need to do is quit smoking and drinking. I'll prescribe some medicine for you, and you'll be fine after you finish it."
Zhang Xin nodded. He listened to Ye Zhaozhao in everything now. Ye Zhaozhao went to the room, got the medicine from the mall, and gave it to Zhang Xin.
Zhang Xin took the medicine, paid for it, and left with Yan Duo'er. The two thought that if they could get pregnant this time, they would definitely thank Ye Zhaozhao properly.
After Ye Zhaozhao saw them off, she was about to take a nap when Xie Jianing arrived with her man. Her man used to be a company commander, but now he's a battalion commander.
"Zhaozhao, I'd also like you to take a look at our situation."
Xie Jianing has been married for several years. At first, she didn't want to have children, but now she wants to but can't get pregnant. Especially after hearing about Yan Duo'er's situation, she felt she had to come and see for herself.
