"Pfft...cough cough cough...what did you say?"
All the snacks in Geng Ailing's mouth came out without any warning because of Fan Hua's words.
Fan Hua quickly helped Geng Ailing smooth her back, and then continued, "Sister Geng, don't get excited. I mean, I'm pregnant now, but don't worry, after the baby is born, I'll pay for most of the rent, and I won't let you suffer any loss."
"You silly girl, is this about the rent? Aren't you single? Whose child is that in your belly?"
Seeing Geng Ailing so excited and since she had just promised to treat others sincerely, Fan Hua briefly told Geng Ailing what had happened in the village before.
The expression on Geng Ailing's face changed so much after hearing this!
"So, have you decided to give birth to the child and raise it by yourself?"
Fan Hua nodded firmly, "Since they are in my belly, they have a mother-son relationship with me. I will not abandon them."
"they?"
"Yes, it's twins. Remember I left the hotel in a hurry for a while before leaving? I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said it was twins."
"...Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Geng Ailing was completely speechless.
"If you had told me earlier, I would have taken better care of you along the way. I wouldn't have allowed you to sleep under the seat last night. No wonder you always cover your mouth and nose and look sick every time you see someone smoking. I thought you just didn't like the smell of cigarettes, but it turns out you're pregnant."
When Fan Hua saw Geng Ailing's attitude, she knew that not only did she not have any opinion about her, but she also wanted to take care of herself more. She then completely put her mind at ease.
In this day and age, getting pregnant before marriage would be criticized. If she really couldn't stand my behavior and couldn't get along with me, we should make plans early. This is why Fan Hua decided to tell Geng Ailing that she was pregnant now.
There is actually a reason for Geng Ailing's attitude. Less than a year after she married Li Dazhui, Li Dazhui accidentally fell from a mountain and died. Many people in the village advised her to remarry while she was still young, but only she knew that she still had Li Dazhui in her heart.
After meeting the person who treats you so well, no one else is worth your attention. Instead of marrying someone you don’t like, it’s better to continue living alone.
It was a pity that she didn't have time to leave a child for Li Dazhui. She even dreamed of having a child with Li Dazhui.
This time, she decided to come to the south not only to make money, but also because her mother had approached her several times to persuade her to remarry and even arranged blind dates for her. After all, she had been married once, and the men introduced to her were either widowers or elderly. How could she be willing?
Just when she was worrying about what to do, she received a letter from her cousin and thought about going to the South to hide and earn some money.
Now that she knew Fan Hua was pregnant, she was really envious. She wanted to take care of Fan Hua more for no reason, looking forward to the birth of the new life and making up for her regret of not having children.
"How do you feel now? Are you okay after sitting on the train for so long? Do you want to go inside and rest first?" Geng Ailing asked nervously.
"It's okay, it's okay, they are very tough! Sister-in-law, let's go buy things quickly, pack up and rest early!"
Geng Ailing nodded in agreement, and suddenly she stopped in her tracks, "By the way, are there any coal tickets among those tickets Comrade Zheng gave you? I see there is a cooking stove in this kitchen. I heard that people in the city don't burn firewood, but coal briquettes or honeycomb coal. If we have tickets, we can go buy some coal and bring it back, so that it will be convenient for us to cook and boil water in the future!"
Fan Hua took out the stack of tickets and actually saw the coal ticket.
"Yes, the tickets he gave are quite complete. They have basically everything, even cotton tickets and cloth tickets!" Fan Hua quickly took out the tickets and said.
"Wow, that's great. With these national tickets I brought from my hometown, we will have no problem making a living! Comrade Zheng and his family are all good people. I'm so glad I met them on the train." Geng Ailing said with emotion.
Fan Hua also agreed in her heart. She felt that she was really lucky. She had only been through this time for a few days. She first met Geng Ailing in the hotel, and then met Zhao Yilu and Zheng Zening's family. She went from being a person with only four yuan, twenty-five cents on her to taking a train to Guangzhou and having a place to stay.
Thinking of this, Fan Hua couldn't help but look forward to her future life even more!
The two put down their luggage, happily took the money and tickets and left the house...
After asking around along the way, she first went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought some daily necessities. She then found out about the coal yard, bought some honeycomb coal, and borrowed a cart to push it home. Geng Ailing was afraid that Fan Hua would be tired, so she took on the job of moving the heavy objects herself, which touched Fan Hua deeply.
"Mrs. Geng, we are all exhausted today. Let's not cook dinner tonight. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant. I'll treat you!"
Geng Ailing waved her hands quickly, "No, no, no, didn't you say that for the sake of our long-term harmonious relationship, we should share these expenses in the future."
Fan Hua couldn't help laughing and said, "You are really a simple-minded person. I mean that we will keep accounts for the large expenses later, but there is no need to record these small expenses too clearly, otherwise it will be too strange.
You've done all the heavy work today, so it's only right that I treat you to a meal. From now on, you'll have to buy the vegetables today and I'll have to buy the meat tomorrow. There's no way to tell them apart. As long as we both think about each other and don't scheme against each other, we'll definitely get along well!"
After hearing what Fan Hua said, Geng Ailing completely understood and felt that it was very comfortable to get along with someone like Fan Hua.
"Lihua, I didn't expect that you are a few years younger than me, but you are so clear-headed! It turns out that the rumors in the village are not to be believed. You are really a great girl!"
Fan Hua smiled and said nothing more. She took Geng Ailing downstairs to eat. The location of this house was indeed good. There was a state-owned restaurant downstairs where they lived. It would be convenient to eat in the future when they didn't want to cook.
The two of them went in, ordered two bowls of rice and a plate of braised pork, and then began to eat happily.
