"Old Gu, I don't think this Lü Yunpeng is a spy. He's too incompetent. I wouldn't choose him."
Gu Yunduan nodded. Since this Lü Yunpeng wasn't the one, and the only newcomers were the three of them, then it must be the remaining two.
"Old Zhou, don't alert them. Let's keep our attention on Lü Yunpeng."
"good."
Time flies, and Ye Zhaozhao is already seven months pregnant. Her belly is as big as a balloon that could burst at any moment, and the principal gave her a leave of absence early on.
Her classes are now being helped by Jiang Tong and Xie Jianing. Jiang Tong and He De held their wedding in the military canteen last month.
He De has met the requirements to join the army, and Jiang Tong has also moved into the family housing.
"Zhao Zhao, I'm here."
Liu Erfeng was about to give birth, but she still went out for a stroll every day because she couldn't stand staying at home. When Sun Xiuhua heard the commotion, she brought dried sweet potatoes to her door.
"Erfeng, your due date is approaching, so be careful these next few days."
“Okay, I’m thinking of finding a midwife in the village.”
Liu Erfeng was worried about the cost of going to the hospital. Her two previous daughters were born at home, and considering the risks of giving birth at home, Ye Zhaozhao did not agree with the idea of giving birth at home.
“Sister Liu, you need to go to the hospital. Although it costs money, the doctor can handle anything that happens. If you give birth at home, something might go wrong.”
Ye Zhaozhao wasn't just trying to scare Liu Erfeng; she was telling her that something really bad would happen. As soon as Liu Erfeng heard Ye Zhaozhao say that, she immediately changed her mind.
"Okay, I'll listen to Zhao Zhao."
Sun Xiuhua nodded; she would also be going to the hospital to give birth then.
Unexpectedly, Liu Erfeng started having abdominal pain that afternoon. Liu Guanjun borrowed a car from the military region to take her to the hospital. Because it was her third pregnancy, Liu Erfeng gave birth very quickly.
"Zhao Zhao, Er Feng has given birth! She has a big, healthy boy."
Upon hearing the news, Sun Xiuhua immediately came to tell Ye Zhaozhao. Ye Zhaozhao was also happy for her, as they now had both a son and a daughter.
In the days that followed, Liu Erfeng stayed at home to recover after childbirth. Liu Guanjun found an aunt from the village to take care of her, and Liu Erfeng's two daughters were also very sensible.
Children from poor families mature early. While children the same age as Da Niu and Er Niu in later generations are watching TV and playing on their phones, Da Niu and Er Niu are already washing their younger brother's diapers and helping to soothe him.
Gu Yunduan received the letter from Lin Yanke and immediately went back to inform Ye Zhaozhao.
"Honey, Mom said she's coming."
When are you coming?
Gu Yunduan glanced at the date the letter was written; it was five days ago. Calculating the time, Gu's mother should be arriving soon. The two of them went to tidy up the guest room first.
Then Gu Yunduan was about to drive to pick up his mother, and Ye Zhaozhao went with him. This was the first time she had met Gu's mother. The two of them arrived at the train station.
Because Ye Zhaozhao was still heavily pregnant, Gu Yunduan carefully held her hand. It was already September in the lunar calendar, and it was still a bit cold.
Worried that Ye Zhaozhao was cold, Gu Yunduan put a hat on her. As soon as Lin Yanke got off the train, she saw her son, with a pregnant woman standing next to him.
That must be her daughter-in-law. Seeing Lin Yan carrying so many bags, Gu Yunduan quickly helped her carry them.
"Is this my daughter-in-law, Zhaozhao?"
"Mom, it's me, Zhaozhao."
"Oh dear, you're so pregnant, you don't need to pick me up. Come on, come on, get in the car."
Lin Yanke was a little scared when she saw Ye Zhaozhao's belly. The three of them got into the car and returned to the family compound.
Since Lin Yanke arrived, everything in the house has been handed over to her. Ye Zhaozhao hasn't even given birth yet, but she's already drinking all kinds of soups every day.
She could already imagine what Lin's mother would look like after giving birth. She had already gained 30 pounds. If this continued, wouldn't she become as round as a ball?
"Zhaozhao, take a walk after you finish eating, so you can be well later."
"good."
Knowing that twins are not born at full term, Lin Yanke and Ye Zhaozhao had prepared to give birth early, and had prepared everything well in advance.
In the middle of the night, Ye Zhaozhao suddenly felt a stomachache and woke up Gu Yunduan. Gu Yunduan took a look and realized that she was about to give birth.
He quickly carried her to the car, then came back to call Lin Yanke, packed their things, and the three of them hurriedly went to the military hospital.
Because Ye Zhaozhao would come to give lectures every weekend, everyone was familiar with her, and the doctor who often examined her had seen her.
"She's already five centimeters dilated, hurry up and get her to the delivery room."
Ye Zhaozhao was taken into the delivery room. Gu Yunduan and Lin Yanke were still a little dazed. Gu Yunduan paced back and forth anxiously.
Lin Yanke was also extremely anxious. Watching Gu Yunduan pace back and forth, she felt dizzy, but knowing her son's feelings, she remained silent.
Ye Zhaozhao was having her first child, so her delivery was slow. She was a doctor herself, so she knew when to push, and with the help of the doctor, she was able to manage it.
The first child was born quickly, and Ye Zhaozhao continued to give birth to the second. Childbirth was so exhausting. Only after the second child was born did the doctor clean up the baby and take it out.
"Congratulations on the birth of your son and daughter. The older one is a brother, and the younger one is a sister."
How is my wife?
"She's doing great. I've never seen such a cooperative pregnant woman."
Hearing that Ye Zhaozhao was alright, Gu Yunduan breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Yanke and Gu Yunduan each held one child in their arms, their eyes closed, and the two were extremely excited.
Ye Zhaozhao was sent to the ward an hour later and slept for two hours before waking up. She was exhausted from giving birth. Lin Yan borrowed hot water from the hospital.
After making her some brown sugar water and drinking a bowl of hot brown sugar water, Ye Zhaozhao felt much better and asked Gu Yunduan to bring the child over.
