Chapter 83: Morning Sickness
While chasing Wei Shuangshuang, Lin Chen cursed Shen Ruoqing. Why did he run into this damn woman at this time? Wei Shuangshuang had already agreed to let her father find her a job today! Originally, Lin Chen had already thought about settling the marriage with Sun Taohua as soon as possible when he returned, but he didn't expect to meet Shen Ruoqing at this critical moment! Now, he had been trying to please Wei Shuangshuang for two years, and it was all ruined!
Shen Ruoqing was obviously in a good mood. He turned to the salesperson selling white mesh shoes and said, "Comrade, please give me a pair of size 35, thank you."
The saleswoman came back to her senses. She didn’t expect that her shoes could still be sold: “Oh, okay.”
Shen Ruoqing carried the packed shoes and bought some pastries back to the tube building.
"Little sister, are you back? I just washed my hands and it's almost time for dinner. Did you find any clothes you liked when you went to the department store?" Su Jieru asked.
"I didn't see any suitable clothes, so I bought a pair of shoes." Shen Ruoqing replied.
Niu Baozhu was a little jealous when she saw the Huili shoe box in Shen Ruoqing's hand. She had heard her husband say that her brother-in-law's family doted on this little girl the most, but she didn't expect that she was so doted on, wearing Dacron clothes and buying Huili shoes whenever she wanted.
"Brother-in-law is so nice to you. He even gave you money to buy you new shoes."
"My younger sister bought this herself. I didn't pay for it." Shen Xiangbei glanced at Niu Baozhu. Why did Su Qiang's new wife speak so strangely? "Okay, let's eat." Su Jieru greeted her. She didn't like her sister-in-law very much. She asked for so much dowry at the beginning, and she didn't do housework after she got married. She was restrained in the first few months, but now her narrow-mindedness is becoming more and more obvious.
"Yes, yes, Ruqing has finally come here, please sit down and have your meal." Su's mother said.
Because there were guests, dinner was pretty good. We had a plate of fried eggs and some vegetables that Shen Ruoqing brought, and we had rice.
"Xiangbei, you know what, your mother is really good at growing vegetables." After the meal, Su's father praised.
"If Uncle Su likes it, I'll send more in the future." Shen Ruoqing said with a smile. These vegetables are grown with spiritual spring water, so of course they are delicious.
"These vegetables are really good." Niu Baozhu also thought that the dishes were delicious. She had a poor appetite recently, but she ate a lot today.
"It's a little late today. I'll go buy meat early tomorrow morning." Su Jieru said.
Shen Ruoqing slept with Shen Rongrong at night. Shen Rongrong pestered her to tell stories, so Shen Ruoqing had to tell her a few fairy tales. Unexpectedly, after telling the fairy tales, she heard a noise coming from next door.
Shen Ruoqing: Her fourth brother is quite energetic.
The next day, Shen Ruoqing didn't get up until eight o'clock, but Su Jieru had already returned after buying meat.
"Little sister, I bought you fried dough sticks." The big fried dough sticks of this era are a good thing, fragrant and crispy.
Shen Ruoqing ate fried dough sticks with white porridge and thought the dough sticks were really good.
"Ruoqing is about to graduate from junior high school, right? Are you planning to continue to high school?" Su Jieru asked.
Shen Xiangbei took over the conversation: "Little sister's grades are so good, she must go to high school. It will be easier to find a job after high school."
Niu Baozhu listened to this and didn't agree with it. What's the use of eating well, dressing well and having good grades for a country girl? Did she really think she could become a worker just by passing high school? Nowadays, all the workers are internally recruited. She would still be farming in the countryside even if she was raised with so much money and educated.
"Which school is Ruoqing planning to apply to?" Su Jieru asked.
"I plan to take the entrance exam for the No. 1 Middle School in the county."
No. 1 High School in the county is the best high school in the county.
"No. 1 Middle School in the county? It seems that Ruoqing's grades are very good! The exam will be in more than half a month, right? Ruoqing should work hard." Niu Baozhu followed with a compliment, but in her heart she mocked Shen Ruoqing for not knowing how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. How many people who graduated from a rural school can get into a high school? Still want to apply for the No. 1 Middle School in the county? "If you want to apply for the No. 1 Middle School in the county, you can't take it lightly during this period. Persistence is the key, the difficulty is perseverance, and success is perseverance." Father Su said.
"Thank you, I will try my best." Shen Ruoqing responded with a smile.
After chatting for a while, Shen Ruoqing went out again.
Still transformed into Xiaoliu to meet Brother Biao.
"Brother Xiaoliu, that person said that he can't handle this matter alone, and he needs to report it to his superiors. He wants you to wait a few more days."
Shen Ruoqing expressed his understanding that selling low-priced grain directly to the state was not something that a county official could decide on alone, and he also had to be able to get Dalong an overseas Chinese identity.
"I won't stay in the county town forever. If you have any news, go find Dalong. Dalong lives at 132 Haitang Road." Shen Ruoqing was thinking whether the county officials had enough power. If not, should she go to the provincial capital? No, no, that Master Ji was obviously not someone she could control.
Shen Ruoqing came out, changed back into her clothes and went to the state-owned restaurant. She wanted to buy a few more large fried dough sticks but was told that they were all sold out.
Shen Ruoqing felt sorry, but there was nothing she could do because she came out too late.
When I went back home for lunch at noon, Su Jieru made a plate of braised pork.
Braised pork! Shen Ruoqing has been in this world for so long and has never eaten braised pork. This is red and shiny braised pork!
But after all, she was a guest, and Shen Ruoqing ate a lot of meat, so she just picked up a piece to try. Su Jieru saw that she was embarrassed, so she picked up another piece for her.
Niu Baozhu didn't hesitate and immediately picked up two pieces for herself, but as soon as she put them in her mouth and chewed them, she spat them out in disgust.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Baozhu, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Su Qiang swallowed the meat in his mouth and looked at his wife with concern.
Niu Baozhu covered her mouth and got up to look for a trash can.
Now everyone stopped eating and looked at Niu Baozhu with concern. After Niu Baozhu vomited for a while, Su Qiang poured her a glass of water.
"Why do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?" Su Qiang said.
"Sister Baozhu should be pregnant." Shen Ruoqing had been observing Niu Baozhu's reaction. Her reaction should be the early stage of pregnancy sickness.
"What did you say?" Su Qiang was stunned for a moment when he heard Shen Ruoqing say that Niu Baozhu might be pregnant.
Su's mother was also an experienced person, so she asked kindly at this time: "Daughter-in-law, did you have your period this month?"
Niu Baozhu said: "It seems that she didn't come, but my menstruation is not very regular, so I didn't pay much attention to it."
Su Qiang smiled foolishly and said, "I'm going to be a father!"
Su Jieru said, "Let's go to the hospital right now to get some accurate information."
"Yes, yes, let's go to the hospital now!" Su Qiang and his mother took Niu Baozhu to the hospital.
Finally the test results came out and Niu Baozhu was indeed pregnant.
This result made the whole family happy. When he came back, Su Qiang was even more careful, fearing that Niu Baozhu might get hurt.
Niu Baozhu was obviously very happy. Although she and Su Qiang had just been married for a short time, it was a good thing to have a happy event so soon. When she was helped to rest in the room, Niu Baozhu suddenly thought that if her child was born, this room would not be big enough to accommodate her.
