Chapter 216 Removing the Nails



Zhao Qingzhu went into labor early in the morning. She was just about to eat breakfast when she realized her water had broken.

Fortunately, my family had made preparations in advance, calling a car and helping me get my things.

Someone had to stay home to look after the children, so Zhao Qinglan didn't go with them; instead, Sun went to the hospital first.

However, as soon as they left, Zhao Qinglan started making soup at home.

The children didn't go to the hospital, but their aunt became worried.

"Mom, is Auntie having a baby boy or a baby girl?" the eldest child asked.

"Well, we'll only know after your second aunt gives birth."

Erwa looked directly at his younger brother standing to the side.

"Sanwa, you won't be the youngest in the family anymore."

The third child ignored his brother and continued to examine the toys in his hands.

Zhao Qingzhu gave birth in the afternoon; it was a chubby girl.

At first, Mrs. Sun was worried that her son-in-law would be unhappy, but seeing Zhou Jingsheng's silly grin, she felt relieved.

She herself had suffered enough from not having a son, and she was afraid that her daughter would suffer the same fate.

Sun herself was not particularly sexist, but deep down she still felt that only by having a son could she truly establish herself in the family.

When Zhao Qinglan had her third child, she wasn't too worried.

But now that her second daughter has given birth to a girl, she is worried that her second son-in-law will be unhappy.

Although the second son-in-law seems to treat his daughter quite well usually, who knows what will happen later.

When Zhao Qinglan arrived at the hospital with the soup she had been simmering for a long time, she saw her newborn niece.

Because she had been in labor for quite some time, Zhao Qingzhu was still unconscious and had not yet woken up.

Zhao Qinglan then told her mother and brother-in-law to eat first, while she stayed by her sister's bedside to look after her.

The little one was lying next to his mother, fast asleep.

After staying at the hospital for a while and seeing her younger sister wake up and drink soup, Zhao Qinglan went home.

Her mother and brother-in-law took turns tending to the hospital at night, so she wasn't needed.

As soon as she got home, her children told her that their aunt had called.

Zhao Qingju was naturally concerned about her pregnant sister. When she called and learned that her second sister had gone into labor that morning and had gone to the hospital with her mother, she became worried.

However, the snack shop didn't have a phone, so even if Zhao Qinglan knew, she couldn't inform her sister and daughter that they were safe.

However, Zhao Qingju was quite anxious and probably didn't sleep well all night. She called again early the next morning.

She was only happy to learn that her sister and niece were safe and sound.

Zhou Jingsheng had no mother to help him, and Zhao Qingzhu and the child still needed a lot of help from their mother, Sun.

Zhao Qingzhu also had a natural birth, but because it was her first child, the delivery was a little more difficult than Zhao Qinglan's, and she stayed in the hospital for a few more days before returning home.

Because I had already witnessed what the third child looked like shortly after birth.

Now, when the older children see a newborn baby girl, they no longer think the little sister is ugly.

Zhou Jingsheng was given a few days off by his superiors because he was overjoyed to have a daughter.

At first, Zhou Jingsheng was too afraid to hold his daughter. But after being taught by his mother-in-law, he gradually learned how to hold her. Now he adores his daughter and even finds her poop and pee smelling sweet.

Zhao Qinglan and the others thought it would be a long time before they could see their uncle Sun Guangming again, but unexpectedly, Sun Guangming came again before the little girl was even a month old.

His arrival naturally pleased the Sun family.

Sun Guangming also said that he came to celebrate the baby's one-month birthday.

Zhao Qinglan and the others believed it, little did they know that Sun Guangming's visit this time had ulterior motives.

They ostensibly came to celebrate the baby's full moon, but secretly they had a mission.

On the day the baby girl turned one month old, Zhou Jingsheng's family held a banquet.

Sun Guangming arrived very late.

Not only was he late, but several of Zhou Jingsheng's comrades-in-arms also failed to arrive.

Zhou Jingsheng naturally found it strange, but he assumed that his comrades had missions and couldn't come.

It wasn't until the next day that everyone found out what had happened.

It turns out that the mole caught in the previous theft in the regiment's confidential room was not the only one.

After Sun Guangming and his team came to investigate last time, they discovered some clues and found some promising signs.

However, in order to go fishing, they decided to stay put.

Later, Sun Guangming and his group left, but there were still people secretly watching their suspected targets.

After lying low for a while, this mole finally made his move again.

After intercepting another telegram, Sun Guangming and his team decided to close in.

Zhou Jingsheng's comrades did not come because one of them was the mole, while the others were taken away for questioning.

This incident shocked countless people in the group.

If Zhou Jingsheng hadn't been away from his unit at the time of the telegram interception—he was with his wife giving birth—he would have been taken in for questioning.

This time, they finally pulled out the deepest thorn in Li Huai's group.

After the initial shock, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially Sun Shengli and Political Commissar Zhou Hai.

Everyone was very grateful to Sun Guangming for helping them uncover the traitor.

However, due to Sun Guangming's special status, some things are not suitable for excessive publicity, and everyone can only keep this gratitude in their hearts.

After interrogating the captured mole, Sun Guangming and his team obtained a useful piece of intelligence along the way.

A person codenamed "Shadow" is said to be sent over soon.

This "shadowy figure" is a key figure.

This wasn't the first time that senior intelligence personnel like Sun Guangming had known this code name.

This codename was very active in the early days of the People's Republic of China, and it was involved in many sabotage missions.

However, just when everyone was about to catch the "shadow," the person codenamed "Shadow" disappeared without a trace.

Domestic intelligence agencies speculate that the "shadow" has either gone into complete hibernation and will not take any further action, or it has fled to the other side of the strait.

Now, the "shadow" has reappeared, and Sun Guangming and the others are getting excited.

Having finally made the trip, Sun originally wanted her brother to stay a few more days, but Sun Guangming had an urgent mission and left quickly after the full moon celebration.

Before leaving, Sun Guangming told Sun's family something.

He originally worked in the provincial government, but after this, he might go to the capital.

The thought of her brother being even further away in the future made Sun feel reluctant to leave.

It was Zhao Qinglan who comforted her mother.

"Mom, if you want to see Uncle, you can just go to the capital to see him."

Since Sanwa had also fought quite a few battles, she wanted to take the children back to the capital to visit Grandpa Dou and Wei Hong as well.

Sun Wen didn't come back this summer, so it's even less likely that Wei Hong will.

In Wei Hong's letter, Zhao Qinglan learned that she had found a man who shared common interests and treated her very well. She also wanted to see if this man was really as good as Wei Hong said.

Comforted by her daughter, Madam Sun's worries lessened considerably, and she even started discussing her future trip to the capital with her.
