That day, apart from Chen Meizhi who helped clean up, no one else came forward to help.
The annual summer harvest is about to begin, so I don’t have time to care about other people’s affairs.
Not only because of the summer harvest, but also because June is over and July is coming soon. As time approaches, Xu Manman is becoming more and more anxious.
All the compressed biscuits in the space have been prepared, and the food reserves are almost complete.
During this period, Xu Manman also anonymously sent out many letters about earthquake prevention and disaster relief through mailboxes in Taipei City and Shanghai City.
After doing so much, she still felt unsure. Xu Manman was so stressed that she couldn't sleep at night and even lost a lot of hair.
When I woke up that day, my gums were swollen. I made myself a pot of tea to reduce the heat, and then took some dry food and went out to harvest wheat.
It was a hot summer day, hot outside and dry inside. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she just felt that this summer was particularly hot.
Xu Manman could only vent her frustration on the wheat at her feet. She worked hard and after she finished harvesting the wheat, she was about to get up and drink some water when she saw Wan Fang's staggering figure out of the corner of her eye.
Xu Manman was so scared that her hair stood on end. She quickly ran over and supported Wan Fang before she fell to the ground.
Wan Fang's eyes were blurred, "Sister Fang, Sister Fang, Wan Fang? Wake up!" Xu Manman pinched her philtrum and kept calling her name.
Seeing that she was still asleep, he poured cold tea from the kettle and kept patting the back of her neck.
The team leader noticed the commotion here and ran over quickly.
"What's going on?"
"Captain, Sister Fang seems to have heatstroke. Please call the medical staff."
"Okay, help her to the shady place over there to rest, I'll go call someone."
Xu Manman nodded, supported the exhausted Wan Fang, and walked under the shade of the tree.
Xu Manman originally wanted to give her some cold tea, but when she glanced at her slightly protruding belly, she silently put away her kettle. It's better to be safe than sorry, so she decided not to give her the cold tea with herbs in it for now.
She went to the edge of the field, took Wan Fang's water bottle, poured some cold water into her mouth, and kept patting the back of her neck.
When the captain came with the barefoot doctor, Wan Fang had already woken up.
"Manman? What's wrong? Wasn't I just... in the field?"
"You almost fell to the ground just now. It was so scary. Don't say anything. Let the doctor take a look at you."
The barefoot doctor took Wan Fang's hand and felt her pulse for a while, then said, "It's nothing serious, it's just the heat coming up. The baby in your belly is absorbing nutrients, but you are a little weak. Go back and have a good rest, take some nutritional supplements, and... you can put off going to the field for a while." When he mentioned going to the field, he also glanced at the team leader?
The team leader understood immediately, "In that case, Wan Zhiqing, the wheat harvest is almost over anyway, so why don't you take a few days off and come back to work when you're better?"
The doctor said she needed to rest, so he couldn't let her go back to work. If anything happened, she'd be pregnant! His father would beat him to death.
Wan Fang nodded woodenly. After the others left, Xu Manman helped her back to the educated youth site and sat her down on the kang. Only then did she seem to suddenly react.
He grabbed Xu Manman's hand tightly and said, "Did the doctor just say...about...a child? I have...a child in my belly?"
"Yes! The doctor said you are now over four months pregnant. Fortunately, after the first three months, the pregnancy is still stable. However, you must not overwork yourself from now on."
Xu Manman just saw the pregnant woman in a daze, and thought that she probably didn't even notice it, so she pulled the barefoot doctor aside and asked him in detail about the precautions.
Wan Fang put her hands on her belly, still a little bit in disbelief, "I'm pregnant? I'm really pregnant?" Tears streamed down her face.
"Oh, Sister Fang, please don't cry. The doctor said you need to rest well and stay in a good mood, otherwise it will affect your health."
Wan Fang wiped away her tears with a smile, "You're right, I'm just too happy."
Seeing that she had recovered, Xu Manman told her in detail the precautions she had learned from the barefoot doctor.
"...Anyway, you need to eat well, drink well, sleep well, and maintain a good mood during this period. The team leader said that you don't need to work for the time being, so you should rest well in your room.
But you don’t have to lie down all the time. Taking a walk and exercising occasionally is good for both you and your baby.”
Wan Fang nodded seriously, "Thank you, Manman, if it weren't for you, I would..." Thinking that she had just acted like a fool, Wan Fang felt a little embarrassed. She was such a grown-up, but still not as steady as a little girl.
