Upon hearing that this was her concern, Wang Guihua immediately smiled.
“Hey, with your father-in-law and me here, how can we let your parents spend the New Year alone? We’ll have our two families celebrate together, it’ll be more lively with more people.”
Qiao Qiqi wanted to say something, but Wang Guihua didn't give her a chance to speak at all.
"That's settled then. In short, you should stay in Beijing and take good care of your pregnancy. I'll take care of your parents, so don't worry about them."
The matter was settled, and the next afternoon, Wang Guihua and Qin Baojun boarded the train back to Heilongjiang City.
Just before boarding the train, they discovered that Qin Huai had somehow changed their seats to sleeper berths.
"You child, why waste this money..." Wang Guihua was afraid that Qin Huai would spend too much money, so she secretly came to the station with Qin Baojun to buy tickets.
I didn't expect that my ticket would be switched without me noticing.
“How can this be called a waste? You and Dad can relax a bit, and Qin Huai and I can feel more at ease in Beijing.” Qiao Qiqi hugged Wang Guihua, suddenly feeling a little reluctant to part with her. “Take good care of yourself when you go back, and don’t forget to call us to let us know you’re safe when you get back to town.”
"Alright, alright, you can go back now, no need to see me off." Wang Guihua was also holding back her tears, afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would really burst into tears, so she immediately picked up her luggage and went through the ticket gate with Qin Baojun.
"Father and Mother, take good care of yourselves!" Qiao Qiqi waved her hand.
The two watched until Wang Guihua and Qin Baojun's figures completely disappeared before turning back.
Since the train station wasn't far from her home, Qiao Qiqi decided on the spur of the moment to walk back with Qin Huai and buy some things along the way.
The two walked hand in hand down the street; the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, attracting the attention of many passersby.
Qiao Qiqi was already used to it and remained calm and composed.
Qin Huai was initially a little uncomfortable, but seeing the crowds on the street, and knowing that holding hands would make it easier for him to protect Qiao Qiqi, he didn't let go.
As they walked, Qiao Qiqi suddenly said, "I also want to buy a house in Beijing. What do you think?"
Qin Huai had actually noticed that she had this idea a long time ago...
Although he has now been recognized as a relative by the Qin family and Qiao Qiqi has been recognized as a relative by the Fang family, those are still other people's homes. They are already married and will soon have a child, so they will eventually have their own little family.
But... houses in Beijing are definitely not cheap.
Qin Huai took out 53 yuan from his pocket. This was his pocket money and this month's allowance. After deducting the money he gave Wang Guihua and Qin Baojun for exchanging tickets, this was all he had.
Buying a house would clearly be a drop in the ocean...
Qin Huai suddenly felt a little discouraged, "How about we wait two years? I'll work hard to earn money during those two years..."
"Qin Huai, there's something I've always wanted to tell you." Qiao Qiqi suddenly interrupted Qin Huai. Originally, she planned to tell him about the space when he returned from the military camp, if their relationship was still as good as before.
But upon suddenly learning that Qin Huai was injured, Qiao Qiqi realized that she cared about this man more than she had imagined.
Regardless of whether the two will be together forever, Qiao Qiqi is willing to bear the consequences.
She pulled Qin Huai to a secluded spot, told him about the space, and tried bringing another person into her space for the first time. To her surprise, it actually worked.
When Qin Huai saw this completely unfamiliar place, he was truly stunned.
At this moment, he finally understood where Qiao Qiqi's fruit and money came from.
Although the space has the ability to regenerate infinitely and there is spiritual spring water to eliminate physical strength, Qiao Qiqi still carries her there every time she goes to sell, so she has to put in a lot of hard work.
Most importantly, the risks are also very high.
Qin Huai was suddenly touched. "Thank you for your hard work."
Qiao Qiqi imagined all sorts of reactions Qin Huai might have after she told him, but the one thing she never expected was that he would say to her: "You've worked hard."
At that moment, she suddenly felt that it was all worth it!
The two hugged each other, and it took them a while to calm down.
Qiao Qiqi handed over all the money she had on her, saying, "I have 11,000 yuan on me right now. I definitely can't afford a house near the Qin family or the Fang family, but I think it should be possible to buy one further away or in a smaller area."
Previously, Qiao Qiqi had been planning all by herself. Now, she shared her ideas with Qin Huai and asked him to participate in her plans, which inexplicably brought her a sense of happiness.
"After buying the house, it will be much easier for me to go out and sell fruit. In less than a year, we will definitely be able to move to a bigger house!"
As Qin Huai watched her envision a bright future, he suddenly felt a pang of regret. "If I had known, I wouldn't have joined the army. That way, I could have been there to help you."
“How can that be? Joining the army is your dream. We can each do our own part. You protect the country, and I will protect our little family. When the child is born, I will tell him that his father is a great hero who protects the country.”
Children often have a tendency to admire heroes, and Qiao Qiqi was no exception when she was young.
Naturally, her children must be the same.
Ten days later, Qin Huai returned to the team ahead of schedule.
Qiao Qiqi is temporarily staying at the Qin family's house. She told the old lady about her idea of buying a house. The old lady was initially against it, but she eventually agreed after Qiao Qiqi insisted.
But there was one condition: the item had to be purchased near the Qin family's residence, and she would cover the cost if the money was insufficient.
Qiao Qiqi couldn't refuse, and finally insisted on giving the old lady an IOU.
A week after the house was bought, Qin Baoguo suddenly brought back good news for Qin Huai: "The commander said that Qin Huai has made a contribution this time and has returned to the team ahead of schedule. He has approved that he can keep the saved vacation days until you give birth. There are a total of five days."
"Really?" Five days may not be a long time, but Qiao Qiqi was already very satisfied!
Time flies. On this day, Qiao Qiqi had just washed and dried the baby supplies that Fang Ke and Fang Jingru had brought her on the balcony when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
The pain wasn't intense at first, but it quickly became more and more painful.
Realizing something was wrong, Qiao Qiqi immediately called the Qin and Fang families.
The Qin family's driver immediately took Qiao Qiqi to the hospital, and then Old Madam Qin and the Fang family also arrived.
In the delivery room, an aunt that Fang's mother knew was also there, holding Qiao Qiqi's hand tightly the whole time, "Don't be nervous! The doctor said that the baby is not big and the baby is in the right position, so it will definitely be born smoothly."
Qiao Qiqi was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. She had never imagined that childbirth would be so painful!
With great difficulty, she gritted her teeth and finally asked, "Has Qin Huai arrived?"
He said that if I told him when I was giving birth, he would come immediately.
