Chapter 208 Father and Mother Shi use their big moves
After taking out the piles of letters and putting them away, Shi Tingyu and the others hurried to eat.
After three months of pregnancy, Shi Tingyu clearly felt that her appetite had gradually increased, and she couldn't stand being hungry for a while.
Fortunately, now that Mother Lu was there, meals were served on time.
After the three of them had dinner, they began to read the letters.
Every sentence of love and praise from the readers in the letters made people feel happy.
She read more than a dozen letters in one breath without pausing.
At this time, Mother Lu, who was opening the letter, exclaimed, "Xiaoyu, why is there money in this letter?"
Lu Weiguo and Shi Tingyu looked at the envelope in Mother Lu's hand, and there were actually several big reunion notes in it.
Mother Lu counted five of them.
This is fifty yuan.
Lu's mother was shocked, "Whose child is this? He is not so rich."
Lu Weiguo took the envelope from Lu's mother and found that the address was actually their hometown, Qianxi Brigade.
He took another look, wow, this name is familiar.
Xia Jie. (See Chapter 133)
The male educated youth who likes to read comics. When Lu Zhen took Li Jian to play, he was one of the educated youths who watched Li Jian.
Lu's mother also knew this educated youth Xia, but she didn't expect that he was also a reader of Xiaoyu.
Shi Tingyu didn't expect that the other party would send money in the reader's letter to her.
The address of the camp is generally known to few people except military families. No wonder he didn't write directly, but sent it to the publishing house.
There may be another reason. It is easy for a gay man to write a letter to a woman alone, which can easily lead to misunderstanding.
Shi Tingyu said to Lu Weiguo, "Take a look at what is written in the letter."
Lu Weiguo handed the letter to Shi Tingyu.
Shi Tingyu couldn't help but chuckle. This man was quite principled at this time.
He read the letters from readers openly, but since Xia Jie was someone he knew, he didn't read it directly.
Shi Tingyu took the letter, read it, and finally handed it to Lu Weiguo, "Xia Jie said that this money is for buying delicious food for Li Jian."
Seeing that his wife really didn't care, Lu Weiguo started to read it.
The long letter expressed Xia Jie's longing for Li Jian. Xia Jie also talked about his return to the city. He
said that he probably wouldn't have the chance to see Li Jian again after returning to the city, so he sent fifty yuan and asked Shi Tingyu to help buy some more delicious food for Li Jian. When
Lu Weiguo read the letter to the end, he found that there was a piece of paper after the salute. He opened it and found that it was a portrait of Li Jian.
"Look, wife."
Lu Weiguo handed the portrait to Shi Tingyu.
Shi Tingyu only realized at this time that he had missed one.
This portrait of Li Jian is a sketch, but the brushstrokes are delicate, showing the texture of Li Jian's fur very well. It can be seen that he has a solid foundation in painting.
It is not even worse than Han Wei's painting.
Shi Tingyu was somewhat moved, and said to Lu Weiguo: "Put the painting away, and frame this one and put it in the sword nest when the time comes."
Then she looked at the fifty yuan again.
Originally, she could wait for Lu's mother to return the money to the educated youth site, but now that she saw that he had returned to the city, she had to give up for the time being.
Later, she read a lot of letters, but fortunately, no one stuffed money into them.
In the next few days, Shi Tingyu always took out the letters to read when she had nothing to do. Even so, she only read less than one-fifth of those letters.
But there is no rush, just take it slowly.
It's already the 20th, and the New Year is in a week.
Shi Tingyu's belly is more than four months old. Now that she takes off her outer cotton coat, she can see the slightly bulging arc of her belly, and also ushered in the first fetal movement of the baby.
In her previous life, Shi Tingyu had only heard of the term "fetal movement". This time, she felt it for real and realized how exciting these two short words can be.
Except for the time when she first found out she was pregnant, her mood fluctuated greatly. After that, she really didn't have any special feelings.
Oh, by the way, the only feeling was that her period had stopped, and she was very happy.
There were no sanitary napkins for sale at the moment.
It was not until 1978 that sanitary napkins were known in China. In 1982, sanitary napkin production lines were introduced from Japan, so Shi Tingyu used a menstrual belt before.
A menstrual belt is like a sumo player's loincloth, with ash or a small piece of cloth stuffed in the middle. The better ones are stuffed with toilet paper.
Menstrual belt
For Shi Tingyu, who was used to the convenient sanitary napkins of later times, it was really inconvenient to have her period in this era.
Fortunately, Lu Weiguo helped her wash frequently.
In fact, she wanted to do this kind of thing by herself, but Lu Weiguo didn't let her go into the water at all during those days.
She felt disgusted, but Lu Weiguo didn't mind at all.
Now she doesn't need to have her period, and she doesn't need a menstrual belt.
She thought that if she was pregnant and breastfeeding, it would be good if her period could last until the appearance of sanitary napkins in seven or eight years.
This fetal movement made Shi Tingyu really feel that there was a living life in her belly, a life that could move and be touched. When
Lu Weiguo came back in the evening, Shi Tingyu told him about the fetal movement. He was so excited that he didn't sleep well all night.
He would put his hand on her belly from time to time.
Occasionally, he would feel the fetal movement, which would make his eyes widen.
Compared with Lu Weiguo's performance, Shi Tingyu felt that he was still very stable.
Just when Shi Tingyu was comfortably nurturing the baby, good news came from the Weapons Research Institute.
All the data of the new weapons developed by Shi's father and his team have passed the verification and can be produced and applied in large quantities.
This achievement made the institute and the camp very excited.
It is obvious that Lu Weiguo has been much busier than before in the past few days.
But no matter how busy he is, he still has a smile on his face.
The successful development of new weapons not only improves the survival rate of soldiers, but also the military strength of the country.
China is in a very difficult situation now.
There are technological blockades everywhere.
Although the successful development of new weapons this time is not as good as the success of satellite and missile updates, it is definitely not to be underestimated.
With the successful development of new weapons, various interviews and reports followed.
"People's Daily" and "China Military Daily" reported on this matter one after another. Recently
, many reporters and photographers from newspapers have been entering and leaving the camp.
