Chapter 62 Chapter 62 "Qiuyue, you are not pregnant...

On the way home, Lin Zhengrong always carried the backpack on his back. Jiang Qiuyue was indeed a practical person. She was in a better mood because she didn't have to carry it herself today.

When Jiang Qiuyue met people on the road, she didn't dare to say much, for fear that someone would see the things in the basket on her back.

It is easy to hide food. Once it is eaten, you can insist that you have never been to the black market and no one can find evidence.

When they got home, Jiang Qiuyue immediately started drying the salted fish while asking Lin Zhengrong to cut the fat and make lard.

When Lin Beibei and Lin Nannan were sent back, Yu Guanghui also came. The old man still felt a little uncomfortable, after all, it was not a special day.

"Mom, I invited Grandpa Yu to our house." Lin Beibei held Yu Guanghui's hand, "Uncle Xiao Li said that Grandpa Yu would eat at home by himself. I thought that since Uncle Xiao Li would deliver the food, it would be better to let Grandpa Yu come over to eat. You won't be angry, right?"

"No, I mentioned this before. Beibei, you are the one who has the face." Jiang Qiuyue invited Yu Guanghui to drink tea. "I just started cutting vegetables. It will take a while before the meal."

Yu Guanghui was pulled by Lin Beibei to sit down. Lin Beibei held a model of an airplane in his hand and asked Yu Guanghui to continue telling him stories about the war in the past.

Lin Nannan also wanted to continue listening, but she was quieter than her brother. She sat down silently, looking at Yu Guanghui and waiting for him to speak.

Facing the expectant and admiring eyes of the two children, Yu Guanghui felt proud and told them about his glorious past.

Jiang Qiuyue was busy in the kitchen. There happened to be some sugar at home, so she made some sweet potato shreds and asked Lin Zhengrong to send a bowl to Wu Shuangshuang's house across the street. "Sweet potatoes are not worth the money, but children love sweet things. Let them eat them while they're hot, otherwise they won't taste good when they get cold."

After Lin Zhengrong left, Jiang Qiuyue asked Xiao Li and the others to eat the candied sweet potatoes first.

Lin Beibei's entrance was stunning. She took them directly with her hands, one in each hand. Lin Nannan was much more elegant.

Xiao Li also praised the food for being delicious, and the plate of shredded sweet potatoes was quickly finished.

"It would be great if I could eat candied sweet potatoes every day!" Lin Beibei sighed.

But Xiao Li knew it wouldn't work, "Sweet potatoes are easy to make, but sugar is not."

Hearing this, Yu Guanghui asked Xiao Li to bring the candy coupons from home later, "My teeth hurt from eating too much sweets. I remember there are still a few kilograms of candy coupons at home. Tomorrow morning, Xiao Li, go get them for Qiuyue. No... you can just go to the supply and marketing cooperative and deliver them."

Jiang Qiuyue in the kitchen did not hear this. It was not until the next day when Xiao Li brought white sugar, rock sugar, and fruit candies that Jiang Qiuyue realized what Yu Guanghui meant.

"Is the chief too doting on children? Why did he let you bring so many candies?" Jiang Qiuyue felt embarrassed. Fortunately, Lin Beibei and Lin Nannan went to study, otherwise, seeing so many candies, they would have begged for food.

The two children are obedient and well-behaved, but children are children after all, and they still have times when they are greedy and playful.

"The chief is lonely, and he really can't eat so much candy, so it's just right for Beibei and Nannan. Sister-in-law is afraid that they will eat too much, so she can take some to exchange for other things. Anyway, the chief asked me to bring it, and I dare not take it back." Xiao Li put down the candy and said he had something else to do.

Jiang Qiuyue had no choice but to accept the candies, put them all in the room, and prepare to eat them slowly.

This period of eating lasted almost half a month, until the end of October.

The weather was getting colder. Haicheng was close to the sea and the wind was strong, so the family had to fetch water from the well every day.

Every time Lin Zhengrong would get up early to fetch water, many people would laugh at him for loving his wife and not letting Jiang Qiuyue do such a small job. Lin Zhengrong just smiled when he heard it. Water was needed for eating, bathing and washing vegetables at home, and he couldn't bear to let Jiang Qiuyue fetch water because her skin was so tender.

That day, Lin Zhengrong was fetching water to water the vegetables, and Jiang Qiuyue was cleaning the chicken coop. Perhaps it was the smell of the chicken coop that made Jiang Qiuyue lean against the wall and vomit, and she was seen by Wu Shuangshuang who came in.

"Qiuyue, are you pregnant?" Wu Shuangshuang had just finished speaking when Jiang Qiuyue trembled with fear.

In the first few times, Jiang Qiuyue and Lin Zhengrong were passionate and did not take any protective measures.

What if...

She calculated her period and found that it was indeed a few days late.

Oh my God!

You can't have such bad luck!

Seeing Jiang Qiuyue remained silent, Wu Shuangshuang's eyes narrowed with a smile. In her opinion, it was a good thing. "See, I told you and Deputy Head Lin that you work so hard every day, and something will definitely happen."

Seeing Lin Zhengrong watering the yard, Wu Shuangshuang was about to say congratulations when Jiang Qiuyue suddenly covered her mouth.

"Sister Shuangshuang, please don't say anything yet." Jiang Qiuyue didn't want Lin Zhengrong to know about the unconfirmed things. From Lin Zhengrong's perspective, he should be happy. But she also said that she didn't want to have children. Now that she hadn't confirmed it, she didn't want Lin Zhengrong to know.

"Why can't you say it?" Wu Shuangshuang didn't understand.

"It's not confirmed yet." Jiang Qiuyue silently prayed to all the gods to bless her and not fall into the trap. She didn't want to go through the hardship of giving birth to a child.

Wu Shuangshuang nodded, "Yes, you should go to the hospital and make sure."

Jiang Qiuyue didn't want to wait any longer, so she washed her hands immediately and told Lin Zhengrong that she was going out for a while.

As a good sister, Wu Shuangshuang must go with Jiang Qiuyue.

As soon as the two entered the office, Doctor Liao recognized Jiang Qiuyue. "It's you. Didn't you come here to get a box of birth control products two days ago? I told you young comrades to take care of your health. You are the most diligent in getting the products in the hospital. Let your man take a break once in a while. You too should not indulge yourself too much."

As he spoke, Doctor Liao went to look through the shelves, preparing to get some birth control supplies for Jiang Qiuyue.

Wu Shuangshuang had not expected that she would be able to hear such private matters during her visit. She turned around and saw Jiang Qiuyue blushing, so she quickly told Dr. Liao that she was here for a check-up today.

"Pregnant? How is that possible?" Doctor Liao wanted to say that she shouldn't be pregnant because of the use of birth control products, but when he thought about the frequency of Jiang Qiuyue's periods, he realized that sometimes the process was too intense and it was possible that the birth control products would be torn. The look in Jiang Qiuyue's eyes became even more interesting.

"Let me check you out." Doctor Liao smiled and shook her head, but she was wearing a mask and Jiang Qiuyue could only see her crooked eyes.

When she came out of the hospital, Jiang Qiuyue felt like finding a crack in the ground to crawl into.

The good news is that I’m not pregnant, so I don’t have to worry about it anymore.

The bad news is that Wu Shuangshuang knows everything. Originally, Wu Shuangshuang said that she and Lin Zhengrong were working too hard, but now it has been proven that they are even more working hard.

After walking a long way out of the hospital, Wu Shuangshuang could no longer hold back her laughter, "Your deputy group leader Lin is in good health, and so are you. Did you hear what Doctor Liao said? You are the one who takes the most in the entire family hospital."

"Laugh, just laugh as much as you want, luckily I'm not pregnant, I'm in a better mood now, you can laugh as much as you want." Jiang Qiuyue had given up resisting, if she could do it again, she would definitely not bring Wu Shuangshuang with her. And Dr. Liao was right, why was she the one who came most frequently, what if it wasn't her.

The two returned home. Lin Zhengrong had just finished his work in the vegetable garden and was chopping wood in the yard. It was too hot to work, so he was only wearing a vest, and his muscles were about to burst from the blood.

After seeing this, Wu Shuangshuang was envious and said, "My Lin Rong was also quite good a few years ago. Alas, comparing yourself to others will only make you angry."

Jiang Qiuyue pulled her home and changed the subject, "You haven't told me yet, why did you come to see me today?"

"Oh, I forgot about this." Wu Shuangshuang stopped laughing immediately. "Didn't I tell you before that my parents-in-law would bring a bunch of relatives over at the end of the year?"

Jiang Qiuyue: "Are they coming?"

"Yes, they will come next month. I get annoyed when I think about them coming." Wu Shuangshuang's mother-in-law's home is not as far away as Jiang Qiuyue's. The train can reach there in one day. "My parents-in-law love to show off that they have a son who is a soldier. When they hear relatives praising them, their mouths are grinning to the sky."

"Soon, next month. It's fine if they come by themselves, but I'm bothered by my relatives. Every time they see me, they ask, when are you going to have a son? Who knows when?"

Wu Shuangshuang complained to Jiang Qiuyue for most of the day and only went back when it was almost dark.

Jiang Qiuyue thought that it was a good thing that she and Wang Chunhua had severed their relationship, and Lin Zhengrong had no biological parents, otherwise he would have met such terrible in-laws, and his life would have been filled with many troubles.

However, she heard Lin Zhengrong and Chen Guowei mention this when they were drinking, that Lin Zhengrong still asked someone to help look for him. Maybe this was just an obsession, he always wanted to know why his biological parents abandoned him.

Wu Shuangshuang said time went by very fast, and it really did. A month had passed in the blink of an eye.

When Jiang Qiuyue saw the large group of people, she finally understood why Wu Shuangshuang had been complaining for so long.

"Qiuyue, these are my father-in-law and mother-in-law, as well as my second aunt, third uncle, and the two children from my fifth uncle's family." Shuangshuang introduced them all in one breath. Jiang Qiuyue only remembered who Wu Shuangshuang's parents-in-law were, and couldn't remember the others at all.

Seeing the Lin family enter the yard, Jiang Qiuyue pulled Wu Shuangshuang to the door and said, "There are more than a dozen people here this time. How are you going to accommodate them?"

Their two houses are the same size, and even if the beds are crowded, there is still not enough space for so many people to sleep.

"Didn't you see? They all brought their own bedding." Wu Shuangshuang pouted and said, "When they came here for the first year, they didn't bring any bedding, and my mother-in-law scolded me for a long time. Just bear with it, you won't be able to stay for a few days. Anyway, they know my temper and dare not say too much to me."

Wu Shuangshuang had a bad temper and was not afraid of offending people. One year, she was so angry that she simply didn't cook and took her daughter to the canteen to eat. Her parents-in-law were embarrassed, but they couldn't blame her in public, so they took their relatives to the canteen to eat. As a result, everyone looked like a starving ghost, which made her parents-in-law feel distressed for a long time. From then on, if a relative said something too much, her parents-in-law would be the first to come out and stop it.

"Every family has its own problems." Jiang Qiuyue sighed.

"Yes, after all, they are Lin Rong's parents, I have to give them face. Fortunately, the relatives will only stay for a few days, otherwise I can't give them this face." Wu Shuangshuang had just finished speaking when someone called her, "I won't talk to you anymore. I will complain to you after they leave."

Turning around, Wu Shuangshuang smiled and said, "Mom, you called me, what's the matter?"

"That one just now must be your neighbor, she's really pretty. Lin Rong said you two have the best relationship. These are the Chinese herbs I picked from the mountains. There are some for headaches and some for colds. Give some to her neighbor." Shu Sanmei said, and then quietly moved over, "I've prepared some for you, too."

She looked for many folk remedies, hoping to have a grandson and a capable daughter-in-law. Except for the grandson and the bad temper, everything else was good.

Hearing that her mother-in-law had prepared Chinese medicine again, Wu Shuangshuang immediately put on a displeasure, but still gave the medicine given by her mother-in-law to Jiang Qiuyue.

In the next few days, Wu Shuangshuang's house was indeed lively and Jiang Qiuyue would meet them every day. However, Wu Shuangshuang told her not to be too enthusiastic with them, lest they would nag her.

Five days later, Wu Shuangshuang's mother-in-law's second aunts left with the things Wu Shuangshuang had prepared, but Wu Shuangshuang's parents-in-law wanted to stay and celebrate the New Year.

Also staying with them were the nephews and nieces from Lin Rongwu's uncle's family.

Originally, Jiang Qiuyue wanted to go over and give some gifts to Wu Shuangshuang's relatives after they left. After all, she had accepted the Chinese medicinal herbs given by Wu Shuangshuang's mother-in-law. Now there was no one else around, so she made some buns and gave them over.

There were so many people before that she couldn't afford to deliver them all, so she had to use up two kilograms of flour to make one bun for each person.

As a result, before Jiang Qiuyue knocked on the door, she heard Wu Shuangshuang and Lin Rong arguing.

"If I can help, I won't stop you, but Lin Wu and Lin Tao from my fifth uncle's family don't meet the qualifications for military service. The army isn't yours, so can you just stuff people in there whenever you want?" Wu Shuangshuang got loud when she started arguing, and she knew that there was trouble if the two kids stayed behind.

This time she was not afraid of embarrassment and quarreled with Lin Rong in front of them.

Lin Rong tried to pull Wu Shuangshuang's hand, but Wu Shuangshuang shook him off. "Don't be so loud. Can we go back to the house and talk?"

"No!" Wu Shuangshuang refused immediately. "If they have the ability to join the army, that's their own ability. If they can't join the army, I can't help them. Don't expect me to buy them a job with money. No one can touch the money I saved with great effort!"
