Chapter 100
It was already 3:30 in the afternoon when Lin Qingqing and Lu Cheng arrived at the family compound. As for the reason, it is difficult for Lin Qingqing to explain it in one sentence.
The wise and brave Captain Lu rode on the deserted road at a speed that was as fast as the traffic jam on the highway during holidays in the future. It took him more than an hour to drive half an hour.
Lin Qingqing's buttocks were not just bruised, but numb. She didn't even have the energy to explain to Captain Lu.
The two arrived at the gate of the family compound and saw Lu Haici wandering at the gate. When he saw them, Lu Haici ran towards them.
"How are Dad and Mom?" Lu Haici hadn't seen his parents come back for so long, and he felt a little uneasy. He almost walked to the county hospital by himself.
Lin said gently, "It's okay, it's your dad who's just freaking out."
Lu Cheng sighed, "Your mom is pregnant." He was helpless.
Lu Haici was stunned at first, then his eyes lit up. "Really?"
Lin was worried that Lu Haici would be uneasy, so she hurriedly said, "Haici, mom is afraid that the younger brother and sister will not behave well, what should we do?" She said in a weak tone. Lu Haici was a manly little man, and he couldn't stand her being weak. In his impression, a weak mother needed his protection. In this way, he wouldn't think too much.
Lu Haici patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, mom. If the younger brothers and sisters are not well behaved, I will take them and coax them."
"But Haici is the big baby of mom and dad. Mom doesn't want Haici to work hard to coax younger brothers and sisters." Lin Qingqing said again.
Lu Haici heard it and grinned like a little fool. "I'm not tired. I want to take care of my younger brothers and sisters the most. Ji Yang is jealous of me. We also agreed that if I have younger brothers and sisters, he will be my brother." Because Lin Qingqing has given him enough sense of security in the past three years, Lu Haici will not have any random thoughts.
Lin Qingqing thought to herself, Lu Haici is really amazing. She just got pregnant, and he found a brother for the child, and he is the male protagonist. With the male protagonist and the male supporting role as brothers, this child may be able to ascend to heaven in the future.
"Mom said?" Seeing her mother looking at her with strange eyes, Lu Haici was a little puzzled.
Lin came back to her senses and gave Lu Haici a thumbs up: "When did you tell Ji Yang? This speed is fast enough." When she asked, she had already got off the bike. She really didn't want to ride a bike for such a short distance in the family yard.
Seeing this, Lu Haici hurried to support her: "Mom, be careful."
Lin gently touched Lu Haici's head: "Even for Haici, Mom will be careful."
"Hehe..." Lu Haici held his mother, happily puffing out his little chest. He was already fantasizing about playing with his younger brothers and sisters.
Lu Cheng looked at the little bastard and was fooled by him again. It was annoying. Why is he the one who shines every time?
It was not yet time for dinner. There was no work at the farm, so everyone had already had a holiday. The wives of soldiers were paid work points, not work-based. They were basking in the sun on their holiday, some were sewing clothes, some were knitting sweaters, and some were preparing vegetables. It was very lively.
When Lin Qingqing and the others came back, they were naturally seen by everyone. So everyone asked, "Comrade Lin is back. Did you go to the hospital and see if you were okay?" Lin Qingqing
was about to say that she was fine, but the child next to her couldn't wait to say, "My mother is pregnant with a younger brother or sister." He looked so proud, as if his mother had won a lottery of 100 million.
Everyone was stunned, and they hadn't reacted yet. After all, Lin Qingqing hadn't gotten pregnant for three years, and of course there were some people gossiping behind her, but it wasn't spread to her, so naturally no one dared to spread it. The farm's work still depended on Lin Qingqing. So when they heard that Lin Qingqing was pregnant, everyone was dumbfounded. But then, everyone came to their senses and began to congratulate: "Congratulations, Comrade Lin."
"Comrade Lin is pregnant, so you should take care of your body..."
"That's right, during pregnancy..."
Some people who had experienced it began to talk about their own experiences.
Lin Qingqing listened to everyone's kind words and was quite grateful: "Thank you, everyone. I will ask you when I have something I don't understand."
Someone else said: "Comrade Lin, you can't tell anyone about your pregnancy. The rules in our place are that you can't tell anyone before the third month."
"That's right, that's right, we have that too."
"This is feudal thinking."
"This is a custom, how can a custom become a feudal thinking?"
"This is feudal thinking..."
Several military wives started arguing about this topic.
Seeing this, Lin Qingqing hurriedly said: "Sisters-in-law and comrades, I'm going home to cook dinner first, let's talk another day." She didn't have this three-month taboo, but she didn't participate in everyone's discussion.
"Comrade Lin, take care."
"Comrade Lin, be careful on the road."
Seeing Lin Qingqing leaving, everyone hurriedly said.
On the way, Lu Haici held Lin Qingqing's hand a little stiffly. He asked hesitantly: "Mom, did I do something wrong that I couldn't tell you that you are pregnant with a little brother or sister?"
"How could that be?" Lin Qingqing held his hand gently. "Mom's pregnancy is a happy event, and of course happy events should be shared with everyone. We don't have this saying in our family. They say this just because everyone has different habits and different ideas. Just like some people like to eat sweet food, and some people like to eat salty food. We can't force everyone to think the same as us, but we shouldn't deny other people's ideas. We just need to listen, and think about it, and feel that others If the idea makes sense, then we should learn some of it. If it doesn't make sense, we don't have to pay attention to it. By the way, write a letter to your aunt and grandmother in the evening and tell them about this, okay?"
If it were usual, Lin Qingqing would not be so impatient to tell Aunt Lu Cheng and the Lin family about this, but in my situation today, she was worried that Lu Haici had a shadow in his heart, so she asked him to write a letter to prove with actions that she didn't care about this matter.
"Yeah." Lu Haici was relieved to hear his mother say this. But when he returned home and saw Ji Yang and Qin Ming in the Ji family's yard, he didn't mention his mother's pregnancy again.
But when it was time for dinner, the Lu family's small kitchen became crowded. In the past, this small kitchen was Lin Qingqing's territory, but now Lu Haici is responsible for cooking, and Lu Cheng is responsible for other heavy work. Lu Cheng stared at the pot, never moving his eyes away. He also asked, why does the oil have to be heated before cooking? Lu Cheng wants to learn cooking skills now, and he is a little worried about his wife cooking with a big belly.
That night, when the Lu family was having dinner, Lin Yiyang and his family came with eggs.
"Sister, I heard that you are pregnant. Is it true?" Lin Yiyang asked as soon as he arrived. Lin Qingqing and Lu Cheng have been married for three years without getting pregnant. As a brother, Lin Yiyang is also worried. When he heard the news, he came to confirm it immediately.
"How can this be false? Who dares to spread rumors?" Wang Qiuyue was sure it was true, "Qingqing, this is for your health." The eggs were saved by her, and also for Lin Yiyang's benefit.
"Uncle, aunt." Lu Haici called the two of them obediently, and went to his room to get food for Enen.
"Thank you, brother." Enen took the food and smiled sweetly. Although he is only two years old, because the two families see each other almost every day, he is very familiar with his brother.
"She is pregnant, only one month." Lin Qingqing said while watching the children's interaction.
Hearing her admit it in person, Lin Yiyang and his wife finally felt relieved.
"This good news must be told to the family. It happens to be the New Year, so let them be happy." Lin Yiyang said.
"Yes, yes, tell them, grandma will be happy." Wang Qiuyue said, "We just bought some things for them, so we'll send them over." They bought things for the eldest wife, and then Lin Qingqing made a cotton jacket for Grandma Lin, and Lin Yiyang made a cotton jacket for Grandpa Lin. This was what they had agreed on, a gift from the eldest grandson and granddaughter to the two elders.
Lin Qingqing: "I do plan to write a letter and send it back together with the New Year gifts in the evening. When big brother goes to send it, please call Lu Cheng and you two can go together."
Lin Yiyang: "Lu Cheng doesn't have to make a special trip. Just give them all to me. I can send them by myself. Are you still worried about big brother?"
Lu Cheng said: "She is afraid that there are too many things and big brother can't carry them all."
Gaoshan'ao Production Brigade
"Granny Lin, the meat you got this year is a little too little." Today, the Gaoshan'ao Production Brigade was distributing meat. Grandma Lin had just received the meat when the old lady next to her said.
Grandma Lin: "Our family has been divided, and there are only two people, me and my old man. It's good to be able to share this meat to eat."
The old lady: "Look at my memory, I forgot about this."
Behind Grandma Lin was Lin's mother. Although Lin's mother's household registration has been moved to the county, her previous work points are still there, and she also has a share of the converted food, fingers and money. However, "Only three taels of meat, how can it be so little?" Lin's mother thought, this is not enough for a meal.
"Qingqing mother, the meat you have is not enough to fill the gaps between your teeth." Someone said to Lin's mother.
Before Lin's mother said anything, a fellow villager interrupted, "Qingqing's mother is now a resident of the county. She gets meat coupons every month to buy meat. She doesn't care about these few pounds of meat."
Lin's mother said, "How could she not care about it? Who doesn't care about meat? There are meat coupons in the county, but you can't necessarily get meat every month."
"I heard that people in the county get up before dawn to grab meat."
"That's right."
The Lin family came together to get the meat. Behind Lin's mother was Aunt Lin: "Don't mention the county, even the meat in the supply and marketing cooperative in the town was snatched away in a blink of an eye. Speaking of
the town, Lin's father, who was working at the town post office at the moment, was stopped by someone.
"Uncle Lin, there's a package for your family. Do you come to pick it up or let the postman deliver it to your house? "A female comrade who worked in the post office ran to the security guard and called Lin's father.
When he heard that there was a package for his family, Lin's father immediately said, "I'll do it, I'll do it."
