As temperatures warm in spring, glaciers thaw and rainfall begins to increase.
When Yun Qiao woke up that morning, she could hear the patter of rain outside. The spot next to the bed was empty; He Tingjun was out on a mission and wouldn't be back for about a week.
Yun Qiao got up, put on his clothes, and walked to the window in his slippers. Through the window, he could see that the rain had wet the small flowers on the apple tree, and the leaves were also dyed emerald green.
Standing in front of the window, a slight chill seeped into the room through the cracks in the window. Yun Qiao wrapped her clothes tightly, pushed open the bedroom door and came out. Seeing Feng Juan standing in front of the stove, she said, "Good morning, Mom."
"Good morning." Feng Juan smiled. "Wash your face and brush your teeth. We'll be ready for dinner soon. I made some steamed shepherd's purse dumplings with eggs and black fungus. They're really delicious."
"Okay." Yun Qiao responded, washed his face and brushed his teeth, then sat down at the dining table.
Shepherd's purse dumplings are a common way to eat wild vegetables in spring. Blanch the shepherd's purse and black fungus in advance and chop them. Pour eggs into a pan with oil, fry them until they are cooked and become small pieces. Mix them with the shepherd's purse and black fungus, add salt, soy sauce and sesame oil, and finally wrap them with a layer of flour mixed with equal parts of wheat flour and corn flour. Steam them in a pot for ten minutes and they are ready to eat.
The steamed shepherd's purse dumplings are emerald green with golden egg crumbs. When you take a bite, you can taste the fragrance of eggs, the crispness of wood ear mushrooms, and the freshness of shepherd's purse. It is delicious.
The most important thing is that this kind of dumpling is made of wild vegetables and coarse grains, which will not make you fat. It is especially suitable for girls who want to control their weight during pregnancy and do not want to gain weight.
Yun Qiao ate two shepherd's purse dumplings with the salty dumpling soup cooked by Feng Juan.
After dinner, Feng Juan put away the dishes and said as she washed them, "Put on some long rain boots. It's been raining all night, and the ground is soaked. If you step outside, you'll get muddy. Those rain boots are non-slip. Put them on, and I'll take you to the clinic later."
The roads were slippery on rainy days, and she didn't have He Tingjun's strength, so she didn't dare ride a bicycle with Yunqiao. If they fell or got hurt, no one could bear the consequences.
The long rain boots were issued by He Tingjun's army. They are very non-slip. He already had an old pair, so when he issued them this year, he got a pair in Yunqiao's size for Yunqiao to wear.
Yun Qiao obediently put on his rain boots, picked up the umbrella hanging at the door, opened it, and stood at the door waiting for Feng Juan to finish packing.
Feng Juan washed the dishes, wiped her wet hands on her apron, then untied it and walked towards the door: "Okay, let's go."
"Um."
After saying that, the mother and daughter walked out into the rain under the same umbrella.
The rain was not heavy, but because of the wind and rain, my trouser legs were still wet along the way.
Arriving at the clinic, Yun Qiao looked up at the gloomy sky and said worriedly, "It was sunny when Ting Jun came, but it suddenly started raining. I wonder if he brought a raincoat."
"You don't have to worry about that." Feng Juan comforted her, "Tingjun went out on a mission and brought a company of people with him. There are people specifically responsible for logistics. Even if he doesn't expect it, there are people in charge of logistics to worry about it for him. Just relax."
"I hope so."
An Xiaomei and Gao Qian had not arrived yet, so Yun Qiao was the first to arrive. The door of the clinic had been closed all night, and the room was a bit stuffy. The first thing Yun Qiao did after opening the door was to open the window for ventilation.
Feng Juan poured her a glass of water and said, "I'll go back first and pick you up after lunch. Don't rush out after get off work. Wait for me to pick you up, okay?"
Yun Qiao nodded.
A few minutes after Feng Juan arrived, An Xiaomei and Gao Qian came over one after another.
Gao Qian took off her raincoat and hung it on the rope at the door to control the water. While wiping the water off her head with a handkerchief, she said to Yun Qiao, "Doctor Qin, I just ran into your mother on the way here. She slipped in front of the military uniform factory."
There was only one pair of rain boots at home, which she wore. Her mother only wore a pair of ordinary rubber shoes, which were not non-slip.
When Yun Qiao heard this, she immediately asked worriedly, "Sister Xiao Gao, is my mother okay?"
"It's okay. Luckily she wasn't in a good mood, so she used her hands to support herself and didn't fall."
After Gao Qian finished speaking, Yun Qiao breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay."
Gao Qianyu: "But rainy days are really not good. It's raining so hard, the roads are all muddy and slippery. You're pregnant, and it's too unsafe to go back and forth. If it rains this hard this afternoon, you can't come, so don't come. I'll tell HR and tell them not to record your absence. There won't be many people in the clinic on rainy days anyway, so safety is the most important thing."
Yun Qiao nodded. "Well, we'll see then. If the rain continues to pour down like this, I won't come. Please let HR know then."
"Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll go talk to her." Gao Qian looked up at the gloomy sky. "It's so overcast, all dark clouds. I think it's going to rain again. It won't stop for a while. You told Han Rou yesterday to bring Qingqing for another shot today, but I don't think she'll come."
Yun Qiao also said: "It's raining so hard, she can't come with the child."
Gao Qian thought for a moment and said, "Our two families live close to each other. How about you prescribe the medicine in advance and I'll take the injection home and give it to her at home?"
