Chapter 99 Pregnancy
During holidays, the public transportation system is always busier than usual. Normally, Li Chunying can still get a seat when selling tickets, but on National Day, she stood all morning. Only after the bus passed the military base gate and another group of people got off could Li Chunying sit down and rest for a while, fanning herself with her ticket book in her hand.
While fanning herself, Li Chunying complained to the driver about the drastic weather changes. It had rained and cooled down a couple of days ago, but today the sun was shining brightly again, and with so many passengers in the car, it was very stuffy.
As they were talking, the bus swayed and bumped its way to the final stop, and the passengers got off one after another.
People in a hurry to go to the city usually leave early in the morning, and it's almost eight o'clock now, with only five or six people boarding the bus at the terminal. Among them are people visiting relatives at the military base and staying temporarily in the guesthouse, as well as acquaintances of Li Chunying, such as Lin Qingqing and her husband.
Seeing the two of them come up at this time, Li Chunying assumed they were going to the city for fun. But when she heard they were going to the city hospital, Li Chunying slowed down her movements as she was buying tickets: "What are you going to the hospital for? Who's sick?"
"I'm not feeling well and I'd like to go to the hospital for a checkup," Lin Qingqing said.
"Where do you feel unwell? Is it serious?" Li Chunying asked, handing them two train tickets as she did so.
Although Commander Ding's wife and the others said that Lin Qingqing might be pregnant, Lin Qingqing didn't want to make it public before it was confirmed, so she vaguely said, "My stomach is a little uncomfortable, it's not serious, I'm just going for a checkup to put my mind at ease."
Hearing that it was just an upset stomach, Li Chunying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It shouldn't be anything serious, but it's good for you to get it checked out, just to put your mind at ease."
Actually, Lin Qingqing had been feeling uncomfortable not only from the smell of fish, but also from taking the company shuttle bus lately. So she usually tried to avoid taking the shuttle bus and instead commuted by bicycle. However, the hospital was in the city, and it would take too long to get there by bicycle. Lin Qingqing thought that although she felt unwell, she could probably bear it, so she didn't mention her discomfort on the bus before leaving home.
But whether it was psychological or her symptoms had worsened, Lin Qingqing found today's journey particularly unbearable. Even sitting in the first row with the window wide open, she could still smell the diesel fumes, and her stomach began to churn.
Xie Wei noticed Lin Qingqing's expression, took out a navel orange from the bag he was carrying, peeled it, and handed the peel to Lin Qingqing, saying, "Smell this."
Lin Qingqing took the orange peel and held it in both hands to cover her nose.
The sweet scent of oranges wafted over her nose, and Lin Qingqing's tense shoulders slowly relaxed, though her stomach was still churning, so the wrinkles between her brows remained.
Xie Wei peeled the orange in his hand and was about to feed it to Lin Qingqing when he stopped.
After learning last night that Lin Qingqing might be pregnant, Xie Wei made a special trip to the Jiang family this morning to inquire about prenatal checkups with Shen Yufen. The reason he sought out Shen Yufen was that others either gave birth in their hometowns without ever going to the hospital, or only went once to give birth and had no prenatal checkups. Even Shen Yufen only went to the hospital for prenatal checkups during this pregnancy.
From Shen Yufen, Xie Wei learned that prenatal checkups usually involve blood tests and ultrasounds. Blood tests are relatively simple; you just need to register, find a doctor, have your blood drawn, and wait for notification. That's what Shen Yufen had done.
Since she had never had an ultrasound before, Shen Yufen wasn't quite sure what it was. She had only heard that the results were more accurate than a blood test, but the process was more complicated, and that she couldn't eat anything for several hours beforehand. But Shen Yufen had only heard this from others, and she wasn't sure if it was true or not.
Lin Qingqing did know what an ultrasound was, and she also knew that pregnant women didn't need to fast before an ultrasound. But this was the 1970s, and ultrasound technology could have evolved over the decades.
The result of her discussion with Xie Wei was that they would do both if possible, so just in case, Lin Qingqing did not eat anything in the morning.
Thinking of this, Xie Wei put the peeled orange into the lunchbox and then into a bag, intending to give it to Lin Qingqing when he returned.
Lin Qingqing noticed Xie Wei's actions and asked in a low voice, "Why did you bring oranges with you?"
“I was worried you might feel unwell on the way, so I thought I could help ease the discomfort.” Xie Wei said, seeing her smile, then paused and said, “You can eat after your checkup.”
Lin Qingqing smiled and replied, "Mm."
While they were talking, Li Chunying went to the back to collect the tickets and came back. She saw Lin Qingqing covering her nose with an orange peel, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
"My stomach is a little upset," Lin Qingqing explained.
Li Chunying said "Oh," and then she said, "Well, it's still a bit..." She wanted to say it was a bit serious, but then she thought it wasn't appropriate to say that, so she stopped herself and said, "Why don't you take a nap? You won't feel uncomfortable if you're asleep."
Lin Qingqing hummed in agreement, leaned on Xie Wei's shoulder, and closed her eyes.
...
The hospital was actually busier than usual on National Day because many people endured discomfort at work and waited until the holiday to see a doctor. However, most of the patients were in the outpatient department; once you got to the obstetrics and gynecology department, there were hardly any people.
In Lin Qingqing's previous life, women in early pregnancy needed monthly prenatal checkups, and even more frequent visits in the two months leading up to delivery. However, in the 1970s, few pregnant women came to the hospital to give birth, let alone for prenatal checkups; it was considered good if a woman came two or three times during her pregnancy.
So they only spent a little time registering, and after entering the obstetrics and gynecology department, they only had to wait a short while before it was their turn.
The obstetrician-gynecologist was a woman with a somewhat serious expression. After listening to Lin Qingqing's explanation of her situation, she asked, "How long has it been since your last visit?"
“It’s been almost two months,” Lin Qingqing replied.
Xie Wei, who was sitting next to them, didn't understand what they meant at first. He only realized it after hearing Lin Qingqing's answer. His worried and nervous expression immediately turned into embarrassment, and his eyes became somewhat unfocused.
Seeing Xie Wei's expression, the female doctor couldn't help but laugh: "Your man is embarrassed."
When the female doctor called his name, Xie Wei's ears turned red, but he maintained a calm facade. Lin Qingqing smiled and said, "He's shy, doctor, please don't tease him."
After this incident, the atmosphere in the consultation room became much more relaxed.
The female doctor asked Lin Qingqing some more questions and finally wrote out a prescription for her to get a blood test.
After hearing this, Xie Wei asked, "Isn't an ultrasound needed?"
The female doctor chuckled: "You know that too?" It's no wonder she asked that. At this time of year, there are few pregnant women coming to the hospital for checkups, and even fewer with their husbands accompanying them. And husbands who have done their homework and know what tests are needed are extremely rare.
"I've asked around," Xie Wei said.
The female doctor was even more impressed with Xie Wei after hearing this and said, "The ultrasound is mainly to check for ectopic pregnancy, but the cost will be a little higher. If you want to have it done, I can give you an ultrasound referral."
Although Xie Wei didn't know much about ectopic pregnancy, he knew it wasn't a good thing as soon as he heard it, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
After filling out the forms, Xie Wei and Lin Qingqing went out for their checkups.
...
Lin Qingqing and her family left late in the morning, and by the time they finished their tests at 11 a.m., the results wouldn't be available until the afternoon. They figured going back and forth would be too much of a hassle, and since Lin Qingqing hadn't eaten breakfast, they went to a state-run restaurant outside the hospital for lunch.
Although the hospital is a bit far from the city center's commercial street, the area has a high volume of foot traffic and a wide variety of shops, including two state-run restaurants, one specializing in Sichuan cuisine and the other offering a mixed stew. There are also supply and marketing cooperatives and guesthouses, covering all aspects of daily life.
Although it was not yet certain whether she was really pregnant, considering that pregnant women should pay attention to their diet, the two discussed it and went to the restaurant that served mixed dishes, ordering two light dishes.
After ordering and finding a seat, Xie Wei asked the waiter to pour two glasses of water. He then opened the lunchbox, took out an orange he had peeled on the way, and handed half of it to Lin Qingqing: "We don't know when the food will be served yet, so have something to tide you over."
Lin Qingqing still felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach. Upon hearing this, she hummed in agreement, took the orange, broke off a segment, and put it in her mouth.
"Is this an orange? Where did you buy it?" The waiter asked, noticing the half-eaten orange in the lunchbox as he served the tea.
"I bought it at the Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative in the suburbs." Lin Qingqing didn't miss any opportunity to promote the cooperative, picking up half an orange from the lunchbox and asking, "Would you like to try some?"
The waiter really wanted to try it, but was a little embarrassed and asked, "Is this alright?"
Xie Wei took a navel orange out of the bag and said, "Give this to me."
Seeing the whole orange, Lin Qingqing realized she had been a bit inconsiderate. She put the half-peeled orange back, then handed the one Xie Wei had just taken out to the waiter, smiling, "Take this one."
The waitress was too embarrassed to take even half an orange, let alone the whole one. She quickly said, "This is too much. I'll just eat a segment to taste it."
"I'm an employee of Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative. This is a Mid-Autumn Festival gift from our company, nothing special." Lin Qingqing didn't say anything about eating well or supporting the business, but instead repeated the name of Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative to help the other person remember it.
Hearing Lin Qingqing's words, the waiter took the oranges and asked again, "Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"
"Yes, our Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative has a special fruit counter. Many of the fruits we sell are imported from other places. This one is called navel orange, and it's transported from Jiangxi," Lin Qingqing said with a smile.
The waiter suddenly realized what was happening and took the navel oranges back to the front desk.
The cashier sitting at the front desk saw the navel oranges in her hand and asked, "Where did these come from?"
At that time, oranges were a rare commodity. Even the supply and marketing cooperative opposite the state-run restaurant didn't sell them, let alone navel oranges that were this big and had a sweet aroma.
The waiter pointed to Lin Qingqing and Xie Wei sitting by the window and whispered, "They gave it to me. The woman said it's called a navel orange and it was transported from Jiangxi."
The cashier asked, "You got it for free?"
"Hmm, she said it was a Mid-Autumn Festival gift from their supply and marketing cooperative, and she wanted me to try it." The waitress wasn't stingy; she asked in a low voice, "Do you want some?"
The cashier, who was on good terms with her, nodded without hesitation and said, "Eat." She then asked if she would share some with the head chef in the kitchen.
The cashier asked that because they were all young women, inexperienced and it wouldn't look good if they were caught secretly eating alone. The waitress thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go get a knife and cut it."
The waiter took the navel orange to the kitchen, borrowed a knife from the head chef, and cut it into segments for each person.
The navel oranges were plump, juicy, and sweet. Everyone in the kitchen who tasted them said they were delicious and asked where she bought them, how much they cost per pound, and if she needed a receipt. The waitresses had no idea and quickly explained that the oranges were a gift from a customer who was still eating outside. They then asked, "Should I go ask?"
Upon hearing this, the kitchen helper urged, "Then go and ask quickly. If it's not expensive, I'll go buy some."
The waiter took the remaining oranges out and distributed them to the cashier, then went to find Lin Qingqing to inquire about the situation.
Although Lin Qingqing gave the waiter an orange for promotional purposes, she didn't expect the effect to be so immediate, so she was naturally happy to answer the waiter's questions.
After receiving the answer, the waiter went back to the kitchen and told everyone what had happened.
Hearing that the price wasn't high, the kitchen helper was intrigued and asked, "Which supply and marketing cooperative sells them?"
"She said it was the Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative, which is in the suburbs," the waiter replied.
"The Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative that sells Xingfeng women's clothing?" the kitchen helper asked.
The waitress knew Xingfeng Women's Clothing, but she had never bought from them before and wasn't sure if they were from the same supply and marketing cooperative. The kitchen helper, however, didn't need her answer. Being a native of Jinshi, she knew which supply and marketing cooperatives were in the city and said, "Then next time I'm off, I'll go to the Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative and see if they have any. I'll buy some to eat too."
Upon hearing this, the head chef quickly said, "Bring some for me too." He figured his wife would definitely like it.
...
Lin Qingqing was unaware of the kitchen's group purchase activity and had no intention of inquiring about the follow-up. Her promotion of the supply and marketing cooperative's fruit counter was just a spur-of-the-moment thing, and she didn't expect it to be very effective. She just wanted people to know that the Qingshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative existed.
Moreover, Lin Qingqing has something even more pressing to do right now.
Yes, I was nervous.
After learning she might be pregnant, Lin Qingqing's emotions had remained relatively calm; she wasn't particularly excited, nor did she experience anxiety or sleepless nights. Even on her way to the hospital today, Lin Qingqing felt that even if it was a false alarm, she could accept it.
But after the test, and knowing when the results would be available, Lin Qingqing's emotions gradually tightened. Now she was even a little restless and couldn't help but have wild thoughts. What if she wasn't pregnant and it was all a false alarm?
Then I thought about how her period hadn't come for two months and her stomach was always uncomfortable. If she wasn't pregnant, could there really be something wrong with her health?
Lin Qingqing's face grew paler with each thought, and she lost her appetite. Xie Wei, thinking she wasn't feeling well, asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I..." Lin Qingqing came back to her senses, paused, and said, "I'm just a little nervous, and I can't help but overthink."
Knowing that it wasn't a physical discomfort, Xie Wei breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Lin Qingqing was under a lot of psychological pressure and really wanted to talk to someone, so she whispered, "What if the test results show that I'm not pregnant?"
"Didn't the doctor say there was a high chance of pregnancy?" Xie Wei said.
"What if? My period is late, and I always feel nauseous. If I'm not pregnant, should I get other tests done? What if I have a terminal illness?"
Xie Wei: "..."
He hadn't expected Lin Qingqing's imagination to run wild, turning a happy occasion into... Xie Wei didn't think any further, his face dark as he said, "It's not that easy to get a terminal illness. Maybe you're just under too much pressure. As for the child, if we're pregnant, we'll have it; if not, so be it... Hmm, if we're not pregnant, I need to get a checkup."
"What kind of tests are you having?" Lin Qingqing asked.
Xie Wei glanced at her sideways: "Didn't you say that if we don't have children, it must be my problem?"
Lin Qingqing suddenly realized, and thinking that the original owner of the body lived to be seventy or eighty years old in the original work, she breathed a sigh of relief and nodded seriously, saying, "Then you should go and check it out."
Xie Wei: "..."
Seeing his stiff face, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but chuckle.
Xie Wei narrowed his eyes, but didn't argue with her. He simply asked, "Feeling better now?"
"A little bit." Lin Qingqing gestured, but before Xie Wei could speak, she couldn't help but laugh. After finally managing to suppress her laughter, she couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you nervous?"
Xie Wei said, "I'm nervous."
...
At 2:30 p.m., Lin Qingqing and Xie Wei received the test results.
The test results were folded up. After receiving the results, Lin Qingqing hesitated for a long time but couldn't muster the courage to open them. She had no choice but to hand the results to Xie Wei: "You take a look."
Because of his nervousness, Xie Wei's movements were not as sharp as usual, and even a little stiff. When Lin Qingqing handed him the results, he almost didn't catch them, and only managed to pull them up before they hit the ground.
Xie Wei paused slightly when he opened the results.
Seeing him stop, Lin Qingqing's heart pounded in her chest, and she couldn't help but urge him, "Hurry up and open it!"
Xie Wei continued what he was doing and was about to open the results when Lin Qingqing hesitated. She said, "Slow down," then covered her eyes, swallowed, and said, "Look."
Xie Wei opened the results and remained silent for a long time.
As the silence subsided, Lin Qingqing's feverish head gradually cooled, and her hands covering her eyes slowly fell down. She let out a long breath and asked, "What was the result?"
She thought to herself, "That shouldn't be the case. The original owner of this body lived to be seventy or eighty years old. Could it be that she changed the original plot after transmigrating, and her fate changed as well?"
As Lin Qingqing was lost in thought, Xie Wei's voice, tinged with suppressed laughter, rang out, asking knowingly, "Positive result, does that mean pregnancy?"
"It's really positive?" Lin Qingqing opened her eyes wide and leaned over to look at the test results.
The report began with a series of medical terms and numerical values, but ended with a note stating that the pregnancy test was positive. Lin Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, slapped Xie Wei's arm, and asked, "Did you do this on purpose?"
Xie Wei smiled slightly and said, "This is the first time I've seen you so nervous." It made one want to tease her.
Lin Qingqing glanced at him sideways: "I'm pregnant now, do you know that I can't handle being scared?"
"Yes, yes, I was wrong. I promise I won't scare you again."
His quick apology made Lin Qingqing hesitant to escalate the matter, so she gently let it go and they went together to see the female doctor at the registration desk for the results. The doctor remembered them and asked as they came in, "The test results are in?"
"Yes." Xie Wei said, handing the two results to the doctor.
After examining her, the doctor briefly explained the results to them: Lin Qingqing was six and a half weeks pregnant, and all her vital signs were normal. After giving the results, the doctor also discussed pregnancy precautions and recommended prenatal checkups, suggesting that if possible, she should have a checkup once a month, and if not, once every two or three months.
Recalling Xie Wei's cautious demeanor when they entered, she added, "But you don't need to be too nervous. Eat and drink as usual, but don't overeat, as a large belly makes childbirth difficult. When the weather is nice, go for a walk; good health is better than any supplement. By the way, what do you do for work? Is there anyone at home to take care of you?"
“I work at the supply and marketing cooperative, and it’s just the two of us at home,” Lin Qingqing replied.
Working at the supply and marketing cooperative meant shelter from the wind and rain, so there was no rush to retire. The doctor didn't give much advice, only telling Lin Qingqing not to overwork herself, knowing she wasn't alone anymore. Then he looked Xie Wei up and down and asked, "Your husband is in the military, right?"
"That's right, he's a soldier."
How often do you go home?
Xie Wei replied, "I go home twice a week and stay there for three nights."
Because it was Xie Wei who answered, the doctor said to him, "Your wife was fine in the first few months of her pregnancy, but as her body gets heavier, you'll have to find someone to take care of her. Otherwise, if she falls while getting up at night, no one will know. Don't take this lightly. There was a similar incident last year where a pregnant woman fell at home alone in the middle of the night, bleeding profusely. When they were found, both she and her unborn child died, and neither could be saved."
Although he knew this was an isolated case, Xie Wei didn't dare to take it lightly and said seriously, "I'll contact my family to come over as soon as I get back."
In fact, doctors usually say the same things to most patients. But she found Xie Wei and his wife agreeable and guessed he was a soldier, so she asked one more question. She had already said what she needed to say, and seeing how seriously he took the matter, she didn't press him further about who he planned to send. Seeing that it was almost time and there were other patients waiting, she let them leave.
But the doctor didn't care. On the way to the station after leaving the hospital, Lin Qingqing asked, "Who do you want to contact to come over?"
"Let Mother come over," Xie Wei said.
Lin Qingqing is an orphan, and her father passed away long ago. Her two sisters-in-law either have jobs or they are unemployed, so it's not appropriate to ask them to take care of her sister-in-law during her pregnancy and childbirth. After considering all the options, the only one they could think of was to ask Li Xingfang to come over.
But Lin Qingqing had some concerns: "Won't my second sister-in-law be unhappy if she finds out?"
Before the Lunar New Year, Li Xingfang wrote a letter saying that she would come to Jinshi to stay for a few months after the holiday when things were less busy at home. However, just before she was about to leave, Xu Lina suddenly changed her mind and refused to let her mother take care of her during her pregnancy and childbirth. She insisted that Li Xingfang go to the county town, so Li Xingfang had no choice but to give up her plan to come to Jinshi.
Although Li Xingfang and Xu Lina's relationship has improved somewhat over the past year, the previous conflicts remain. Living far apart is fine, but living closer means they argue frequently, leading to mutual dislike again. During Xu Lina's pregnancy, Li Xingfang mentioned going back to her hometown twice, but ultimately decided against it for the sake of the child.
Last month, after Xu Lina finished her postpartum confinement, Li Xingfang suggested going back to her hometown, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law argued again.
It was during this argument that Xu Lina revealed why she had asked Li Xingfang to take care of her.
When Xu Lina was pregnant with her first child, she didn't get along well with Li Xingfang. Since the couple lived in the county town and were close to her parents' family, her mother took care of her when she gave birth to Xie Yuanhong. Therefore, this time, Xu Lina originally wanted her mother to take care of her again, because although her relationship with her mother-in-law had improved, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable around her, and she didn't want to argue with anyone.
One day, when the topic of caring for a pregnant woman came up in the office, her colleagues were very surprised to learn that she planned to have her own mother take care of her. Some even directly asked her if her husband had brothers, and whether her mother-in-law had taken care of her sister-in-law during childbirth. After receiving affirmative answers, they all said that Xu Lina was foolish for not even noticing her mother-in-law's favoritism.
As her colleagues chimed in with their comments, Xu Lina felt increasingly uneasy. She wondered why Li Xingfang had taken care of her sister-in-law throughout her pregnancy and childbirth, and was even helping to take care of the baby, while she only visited once every month or two during her pregnancy and childbirth. She began to feel that Li Xingfang was biased, so she asked her colleagues for advice. Her colleagues suggested that she ask her mother-in-law to come and take care of her during her pregnancy.
Therefore, Xu Lina's decision to have Li Xingfang take care of her was driven by a desire for comparison.
Although their relationship had improved somewhat over the past year, it was only slightly better than before. Their values and temperaments were still incompatible. It was better if they didn't live together, but when they did, conflicts easily surfaced. Li Xingfang wasn't the type to swallow her anger, so the friction between them grew larger and more frequent.
The more this happened, the more Xu Lina felt that Li Xingfang was biased, and that she treated Song Yan better than Li Xingfang, since they had lived together for so many years without ever arguing. The more Xu Lina felt that Li Xingfang was biased, the more she couldn't help but cause trouble, leading to more and more conflicts between the two, creating a vicious cycle.
So after Xu Lina finished her postpartum confinement, Li Xingfang said she wanted to go back to her hometown. Xu Lina felt that Li Xingfang disliked her and that's why she wanted to go back, so she argued with Li Xingfang and vented all her dissatisfaction.
This argument escalated so much that not only did Xie Qingshan write a letter about it, but Xie Baoshan also couldn't help but resent Xu Lina's actions in his heart. As for Xie Qingshan, Xie Baoshan verbally abused him to his face.
After the argument, Xie Baoshan took Li Xingfang home.
Lin Qingqing felt that although Xu Lina still asked her family to help take care of the child, if she knew that Li Xingfang was coming to take care of her, she would definitely feel that Li Xingfang was biased, and the knot between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would be even more difficult to untie.
Reminded by Lin Qingqing, Xie Wei also realized this, his face darkened, and his tone became very cold and hard: "Just because she's narrow-minded, we can't even ask our mother to take care of you while you're pregnant?"
Because of the argument, Xie Wei is now very dissatisfied with Xu Lina. She gets easily provoked and starts causing trouble with her own family. If Xie Baoshan hadn't written to him, he wouldn't have believed that an adult could do such a thing! If Xie Qingshan weren't his older brother, he would definitely have called her and given her a good scolding.
However, although Xie Wei did not call to scold him, his letter to Xie Qingshan was very impolite, so much so that Xie Qingshan has not replied to the letter since he received it.
He treated Xie Qingshan this way, so he certainly wouldn't consider Xu Lina's feelings. He said, "I'll write to my mother when I get back. If she's willing to come, you don't need to worry about my second sister-in-law. If she doesn't want to come, I'll ask around and see if I can find a nanny."
Actually, hiring a nanny would have been fine, but Xie Wei felt that it was one thing for his mother not to want to come, but it was quite another for him to hire a nanny without even asking. His second brother and sister-in-law had already hurt their mother once, and he didn't want to make Li Xingfang sad.
Lin Qingqing's concern was mainly for Xie Wei and Li Xingfang's sake. Since he said so, she naturally had no objection and nodded, saying, "That's fine too."
After returning home, Xie Wei spread out some stationery and wrote a letter to inform Lin Qingqing of the good news of her pregnancy and to ask Li Xingfang to come and take care of Lin Qingqing.
Sending a letter from Jinshi back to Shicheng takes anywhere from three or four days to a week.
Five days after Xie Wei sent the letter, he received a phone call from Xie Baoshan in the army, informing him that Li Xingfang was leaving the next day and would arrive in Jinshi by train the day after tomorrow.
