Chapter 136

"Wow."

This "Wow" is short and crisp, different from when he was a child.

When he was a child, the "Wow~" was a long sound, and the ending sound was full of twists and turns. It was especially heart-melting.

But in the past two or three years, Qiao Wei almost couldn't hear Yan Xiang's "Wow~".

The child grew up gradually, and gradually got to know the world. It was difficult for him to say "Wow~" about anything new.

Finally, today, he said "Wow" again.

Because, Mom and Dad told Yan Xiang that he was going to be a big brother.

This time, it was an exclamation to life.

He was going to be a big brother.

Yan Xiang was still looking forward to it: "We have to wait until the baby is born to know whether it is a brother or a sister, right? We have to wait so long."

Yan Xiang did not have any bad reaction, so Qiao Wei was relieved.

Her worry was unnecessary, and Yan Lei couldn't understand it - who would be unhappy about having brothers and sisters? Don't every family have several children? Even if my family doesn't have one yet, other families have seen it a lot, so why not be happy?

Generation gap.

However, although he couldn't understand Qiao Wei's unnecessary worry, Yan Lei could understand that Qiao Wei loved Yan Xiang.

That was enough.

Yan Xiang never had any thoughts about brothers and sisters.

He kept books as companions and spent his time with knowledge, and he didn't feel lonely.

But suddenly knowing that he was going to be a big brother, the novel joy still surged into his heart. He went to get paper and pen: "Anything to pay attention to?"

Yan Lei: "..."

Yan Lei calmly took his paper and pen: "Go read your book. Don't worry about it." He

actually took his biological father's job.

Yan Lei leaned over the coffee table and wrote down for a quarter of an hour, writing a lot of things.

Qiao Wei came over to see, saying that his waist was sore, his legs were swollen, he couldn't smell anything, couldn't eat anything, etc.

Qiao Wei smiled and said naturally: "You still remember it?"

Yan Lei also said naturally and enthusiastically: "Yes, at that time..."

But his voice stopped abruptly.

Qiao Wei saw a moment of confusion on the man's face.

"At that time..." His voice lowered, "That was the first time I became a father..."

There were too many firsts in life at that time, of course he still remembers it.

He also remembers the promise he made during the blind date that he would take good care of her in this life.

But...

it seems that I have forgotten it all these years, and now I remember it again. This is the setback in his life.

It is one of the few promises he made but failed to fulfill.

How can he not be confused.

Qiao Wei reached out to hold his hand. Yan Lei held her hand in return.

Qiao Wei held him tightly: "People, sometimes fate just hasn't arrived."

Yan Lei nodded.

Qiao Wei said: "Otherwise, build a cenotaph."

Yan Lei knew what a cenotaph was. Many comrades-in-arms could not come back, and they built cenotaphs.

Qiao Wei searched the bottom of the box and still found two old clothes from the past.

Put it in a small altar and bury it in the corner of the yard.

The monument cannot be erected.

Yan Lei went to the river to find a stone that he liked, as big as a basketball, and brought it back home, pressed it on top, and replaced the monument.

Yan Xiang soon noticed that there was a big stone in the corner of his yard for no reason. From time to time, some food would be placed there. A snack, a piece of fruit, etc.

He asked Yan Lei, and Yan Lei didn't know how to answer for a while.

Qiao Wei said: "It's a wishing stone. If you have any wish, you can tell it."

Yan Xiang was speechless: "I'm not a child anymore. I am a materialist and a staunch communist fighter."

Qiao Wei said: "Even the most staunch communist fighters have wishes."

That's true.

Yan Xiang still went to make a wish quietly.

He put his hands together: "Let's have a younger sister."

"Not a younger brother, not a younger brother."

"It would be terrible to have a child like Junjun."

Junjun had grown up, one year older than Yan Xiang.

He perfectly inherited the genes of two strong men, Captain Zhao and Sister Yang, and was as strong as a calf. He

was particularly powerful when he got into trouble.

Captain Zhao often felt that raising this son would save him ten years of life.

Qiao Wei had a vacant position in the Revolutionary Committee and asked for leave when she was not feeling well.

Meng Zuoyi was still too stubborn, and he was even more stubborn now than he was five years ago.

It was just right to use the excuse of pregnancy to avoid many things.

Sometimes she would sneak into the library in the afternoon. After class in the morning, Yan Xiang would go to the Revolutionary Committee compound to have dinner with her. After dinner, he would stay in the library.

Zheng Ai is the director there now, and everything is the same as before.

The people in the library are all his teachers in some way, and he grew up with them.

It can even be said that in some aspects, these people may understand Yan Xiang better than Yan Xiang's biological father.

When Qiao Wei passed by, Xiao Wu was talking to Zheng Ai. When they saw her, they both stopped.

"What are you doing?" Qiao Wei was surprised.

Xiao Wu said, "Director, Xiangxiang..."

She didn't know what to say.

Yan Xiang is different from other children - everyone in the library has gradually come to this realization in recent years.

Zheng Ai pushed up her glasses and said, "Go and have a look yourself."

Qiao Wei went over curiously. Yan Xiang was in the reading room, leaning over a large table, writing and drawing something. There were a lot of papers on the table.

Qiao Wei walked over, but he didn't notice, he was so immersed.

Qiao Wei looked at the papers, which were full of symbols and formulas.

Qiao Wei was silent for a moment, then stepped out quietly and asked them, "When did he start doing this?"

She thought it was probably a few hours, after all there were so many rough papers.

But Zheng Ai said, "It's been several days."

Among the people in the library, Xiao Wu was the one who loved math. She said, "I can't understand it at all."

Qiao Wei sighed softly.

Zheng Ai said, "We were discussing it just now, why don't we clean up the suite in our office and let Xiangxiang stay there. It will prevent others from disturbing him."

It will also prevent others from seeing him.

Sometimes, being too different from the ordinary people may not be a good thing for them. They may even have negative emotions.

What's more, in the current era, intellectuals are not in the classroom but in the X-shed.

"Okay." Qiao Wei said, "I'll leave it to you."

The head nanny of the library silently guarded Yan Xiang.

Qiao Wei's belly was getting bigger and bigger.

Sowing in spring and bearing fruit in autumn.

The doctors in the county hospital are not complete now.

Qiao Wei went to the military district army hospital for birth.

Commander Yan and his eldest son were waiting outside the delivery room.

Even Yan Xiang saw his father so upset for the first time.

He walked back and forth in the corridor repeatedly.

His military cap was almost crumpled.

"It will be very painful." He was a little anxious, "She hates pain the most."

"Oh, why can't doctors think of a way to give birth without pain? Can't this medical technology be improved?"

The father couldn't stop talking today.

This made Yan Xiang look sideways.

Yan Xiang was very calm: "Dad, calm down."

The father knocked on his head: "I'm very calm."

As soon as the door of the delivery room opened, both of them rushed in.

The midwife came out with a swaddle and congratulated with a smile: "Master Yan, congratulations, it's a daughter."

The wishing stone actually appeared.

Both of them were overjoyed.

Yan Lei asked: "Where is my wife."

"Wait a moment, the placenta is being expelled, let me show you the baby first." After the midwife showed the newborn baby to the father, she took the baby back to the delivery room.

The two people, one big and one small, continued to wait anxiously. After another half an hour, the adults and the child were finally pushed out.

Qiao Wei's hair roots and temples were wet.

Yan Lei held her hand: "Does it hurt?"

Qiao Wei no longer had the strength to speak.

"Okay, don't talk, don't talk."

He held her hand all the way and pushed her into the high-ranking cadre's ward.

After Qiao Wei drank some water and ate the prepared chocolate to replenish her physical strength, Qiao Wei finally had the strength to speak.

"It hurts so much." She grinned, "I won't have another child in the future!"

Yan Lei immediately agreed: "No more."

Yan Xiang was a little confused.

His mother had given birth to him, so she already knew the pain of childbirth.

But from his father's words, it can be seen that whether to have a child is actually controlled by humans.

"Since you don't have to give birth," he asked curiously, "why would you get pregnant and have a baby?"

Geniuses also have blind spots in knowledge.

The main reason is that at that time, there were no books on X-education themes even in the library, and he lacked information input in this regard.

Yan Lei and Qiao Wei paused at the same time.

Yan Lei frowned: "Children should not ask about adult matters."

Qiao Wei couldn't help laughing.

But once she laughed, her evil secrets would be exposed, just like wetting the bed, so she had to try hard to hold it back.

It was so hard.

Yan Xiang couldn't understand, shook his head, and went to see his sister.

His brows knitted.

Qiao Wei found something wrong: "What's wrong?"

Yan Xiang frowned: "Nothing."

If he had known that his sister would look like this, he would not have made a wish.

This is too...

It would be better to give birth to a soldier.

But this is his biological sister. Yan Xiang said against his conscience: "Sister... is very cute."

He said this too reluctantly, who can not hear it.

Especially Yan Lei, he understood it immediately.

He laughed: "You think your sister is ugly? Let me tell you, she looks exactly like you when you were just born."

"Ah?" Yan Xiang was surprised, "Is this what I looked like when I was just born?"

Wrinkled, like a little monkey?

Qiao Wei at least has a memory, and she laughed to death.

"She was like this when she was just born, and she will grow up in two days." She said firmly, "Your sister, it can't be ugly!"

"Really?" Yan Xiang was skeptical.

Three days later, Yan Xiang began to smell really good.

The wrinkled sister really became beautiful after growing up!

She is so beautiful!

The little baby is getting bigger and bigger day by day.

The soft little face bounces when you touch it with your fingers. Yan Xiang never gets tired of playing with it!

My sister is so fun!

My sister is so pretty that I deserve to use a piece of chocolate to fulfill my wish.

Yan Xiang put his hands together and said, "Thank you, wishing stone. I have a sister now."

He peeled the chocolate paper off and put it on the stone.

"My sister is prettier than other people's sisters."

But naming her daughter was a problem that stumped Qiao Wei.

Mainly, she wanted to give her daughter a nice name. She couldn't accept such common words as Feng, Ying, Lan, and Zhen. She also didn't want to give her daughter a name like Aihua that was too political and contemporary.

But the bad thing was that those "nice" names she came up with seemed politically incorrect in this era.

Yan Lei just crossed out one name after another.

Yan Lei couldn't help with this matter. If he was asked to help, the names would be Yan Lan, Yan Ying, Yan Zhen, etc.

Finally, Yan Xiang contributed a word.

"My name is Xiang." He said, "Let your sister call you Fu."

"Xiang is rich in wood hibiscus. Since ancient times, there is a saying that 'autumn wind blows thousands of miles into the land of hibiscus.'"

"Yan Fu." He smiled and kissed his sister's egg-like face, "Your name is Yan Fu."
