"It's okay. I just saw someone trying to harm my family, so I thought I could give them a heads up by calling them later." Gu Jianing said simply.
"Okay." Because it involved Gu Jianing's secret, Sheng Zexi didn't ask any more questions.
After breakfast, the couple went to the communication office and quickly dialed the phone number of the Huaihua Village Committee.
-
In Huaihua Village, Yang Manman, who was pregnant, was sending her husband Gu Yunting to work.
Yang Manman's belly is now 5 months big.
"You go in, I'm going to work." Gu Yunting waved his hand and then rode his bicycle towards the county town.
Only when she saw her husband's figure disappear from her sight did Yang Manman open the door and turn back to the house. Unexpectedly, at this moment, she saw her father-in-law, Old Man Gu, running towards her in a hurry.
"Old family, tell your mother and other family members that Ningning is calling. Come to the village committee to answer the phone."
My sister-in-law called?!
Yang Manman's face lit up with joy, "Okay, I'll go and notify them now."
Not long after, the Gu family, except Gu Yunting who had already gone to work, Yao Chunhua who was doing housework at home, Su Miao who was with her children, and Gu Yunnan and the Gu Yunzhou brothers who had already started working, all arrived at the village committee.
This is the only phone in Huaihua Village, and every time Gu Jianing calls, everyone in the Gu family, as long as they are at home, will come to answer the call.
The first person to answer the phone was of course Yao Chunhua, the head of the family.
As soon as Yao Chunhua received the call from her daughter, her eyes became red. Her daughter had been in the Northwest Military Region for almost half a year, and she missed her very much.
As soon as she received the call, she immediately asked Gu Jianing whether she had enough food and clothes, how she was doing in the Northwest Military Region, whether she was bullied, and whether Sheng Zexi was good to her...
Every word and sentence expresses a mother's concern for her daughter who is marrying far away.
"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine, and Brother Xi treats me very well too."
"I'm fine, really. I have enough food and clothes. You, Dad, and your brothers and sisters-in-law should also take care of yourselves."
"Yes, yes, we are all fine."
"Mom, I called you this time because I have good news for you."
"What good news?"
"Mom, I'm pregnant for three months. I'm having twins. You and Dad are going to be grandparents, and my brothers and sisters-in-law are going to be uncles and aunts."
"What! You are pregnant, and with twins!" Yao Chunhua was so shocked that she couldn't stop herself from shouting and raised her voice so loud that everyone else in the Gu family could hear it.
After looking at each other in surprise, they were filled with ecstasy.
Ningning/my sister is pregnant with twins, that’s great!
Yao Chunhua burst into tears of joy, "It's good to be pregnant, it's good to be pregnant."
Her voice was slightly choked with sobs. At the beginning, Yao Chunhua was 90% satisfied with letting Gu Jianing marry Sheng Zexi. The only thing she was dissatisfied with was Sheng Zexi's infertility.
Sheng Zexi said this when he proposed to her.
Later, Ningning said that she had a way to cure Sheng Zexi's health, and Yao Chunhua thought that Sheng Zexi was really a good man, so she agreed to let her daughter marry him.
After the two got married, Yao Chunhua's biggest hope was that Ningning could quickly cure Sheng Zexi's health and get pregnant with a child.
Even if Yao Chunhua was open-minded, she still knew in this era that if her daughter wanted to live a better life after marrying Sheng Zexi, she should have a child, whether a boy or a girl, as it would be more secure than having no child at all. Of course, if it was a boy, or if she could have two children, it would be even better.
She had been looking forward to it, but didn't dare to ask.
Unexpectedly, Ningning suddenly told her the good news that the child was already three months old.
Yao Chunhua did not blame Gu Jianing for not telling her until three months into her pregnancy, because she knew that a woman's pregnancy is not so stable in the first three months, so she would definitely wait until it was stable before telling others.
Twins are good, two babies coming at once, but...
"Ningning, you're carrying twins at once, you must be having a hard time." As a mother, she has also been pregnant before, she knows how hard it is to be pregnant, not to mention that Ningning is carrying two children in her belly, and she is a delicate girl.
"Ningning, how about your mother go to the Northwest Military Region to take care of you?" Yao Chunhua asked.
The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.
Anyway, Ningning's mother-in-law has passed away, so we can't let Sheng Zexi's grandmother take care of her, right? The old lady is also old.
It would be more appropriate for her, as the mother, to take care of him.
"Mom, not for now. I'm in good condition now, so I don't need your special care. If you want to come, wait until I'm about to give birth. By then, you will probably have finished confinement with my eldest sister-in-law."
Only after Gu Jianing said this did Yao Chunhua react.
Yes, when the eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant and gives birth, she, as the mother-in-law, will also have to take care of her during the confinement period.
Yao Chunhua calculated the time. Her eldest daughter-in-law is now 5 months old, so there are still 5 months before she gives birth. Ningning is now 3 months old, so she will be almost 8 months old by then. When she finishes taking care of Manman during the confinement period, Ningning will be 9 months old. Generally, twins are born early, so Ningning will be almost due by then. It would be fine for her to go there at that time, as she can just take care of Ningning during the confinement period, but the time is a bit tight.
But that's all we can do.
Although Yao Chunhua really wanted to go over and take care of her daughter earlier, she couldn't forget her eldest daughter-in-law. After all, Manman was also the one who would carry on the Gu family's bloodline.
"Okay, that's settled then."
"By the way, have you called Xiaoxi's grandparents to tell them the good news?" Yao Chunhua asked again.
"I'll hit you later."
"OK."
Afterwards, Old Man Gu and other members of the Gu family came forward to exchange a few words. Gu Jianing also told them that she had become a doctor in a military hospital, and her family members were very happy for her. Afterwards, Gu Jianing did not forget another important thing.
Finally, it was Gu Yunzhou who answered the phone. She asked, "Third brother, do you know the situation of Wen Zhuqing and Bao Shanyan?"
When Gu Yunzhou heard what his younger sister said, his face suddenly looked a little strange.
"Little sister, why are you asking this? You've already married my brother-in-law and are pregnant. You're not still obsessed with that pretty boy Wen Zhuqing, are you? Is your brother-in-law not with you right now?"
Although the person on the other end of the phone was his beloved younger sister, Gu Yunzhou felt that some immoral things should not be done.
Gu Jianing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She looked at Sheng Zexi who was standing beside her. The three words "Wen Zhuqing" were like a warning word. When she heard them, they immediately touched his nerves. He looked up at her with resentment in his eyes.
Sheng Zexi naturally believed in Gu Jianing, and he could feel Gu Jianing's growing love for him.
But Wen Zhuqing is Ningning's first love. He seems to have heard that most people have a different feeling about first love. In other words, first love is special?
What does Ningning want to do when she mentions Wen Zhuqing now?
Gu Jianing understood the meaning in Sheng Zexi's eyes and gritted her teeth. If she wasn't on the phone at that moment, she would have wanted to hold his shoulders with both hands and shake them. I mentioned the names Wen Zhuqing and Bao Shanyan, why do you only care about the name Wen Zhuqing and forget Bao Shanyan?
