Although it was pitch black around, Qi Mengmeng still felt a little embarrassed when Gu Guizhi and Hunzi's gazes fell on her. She nodded hurriedly and reminded Hunzi to go back and take good care of Yu Xiaoman.
Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng entered the yard together. Gu Guizhi looked at the table in the yard and walked over.
Yu Xiaoman brought two bottles of wine, which were both finished. Qi Mengmeng drank half a bottle, and the rest of the wine went into Yu Xiaoman's stomach.
Fortunately, the wine was brewed by Yu Xiaoman himself and the alcohol content was not high, otherwise both of them would have been drunk.
"Mengmeng, do you think that children really choose their mothers in heaven?"
Gu Guizhi suddenly spoke.
Qi Mengmeng parked her bicycle, came over to pick up the plates, and was about to heat up the food when she heard these words.
She was really stunned. She didn't expect Gu Guizhi to ask such a question.
"When I was talking to Xiaoman just now, you and Hunzi were already outside the door?"
Gu Guizhi nodded: "When I came back, the gangster was wandering around the outer door. He wouldn't let me in when I wanted to. Later, we heard Xiaoman crying, so we didn't come in."
Qi Mengmeng then realized that the two people had been outside the door the whole time, which meant that they both heard what they said in the yard.
But this words about choosing a mother were made up by Qi Mengmeng. Now that she was asked about it by Gu Guizhi, she felt really embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, Gu Guizhi said, "Do you think our child is waiting for us in heaven?"
There was disbelief in Qi Mengmeng's eyes.
Brother, this is obviously just a lie, and you believe it.
But the candlelight was too dim, and Gu Guizhi did not notice Qi Mengmeng's gaze. He looked up at the sky, and his voice was a little empty: "Mengmeng, tell me, are our children also waiting in the sky to choose us?"
What? What does this have to do with anything?
Qi Mengmeng felt that Gu Guizhi today was a fake person.
"I'll go heat up the food. You might be hungry."
Qi Mengmeng carried the food into the kitchen.
If people are too hungry, they will feel dizzy, their mind will not be clear, and they will not know what they are thinking. It is better to eat first before doing anything.
Gu Guizhi knew very well what he was saying, but Qi Mengmeng insisted on going to the kitchen to heat up the food because she was hungry.
At the beginning, it was two hours later when Qi Mengmeng had the meal.
Because Gu Guizhi wanted to know whether their children were queuing up in heaven.
There are really many people who want to have children.
But until the Chinese New Year, Yu Xiaoman's belly was still motionless, and the same was true for Qi Mengmeng.
When Qi Huilan wrote to Qi Mengmeng, she had already asked about this topic implicitly.
Qi Mengmeng replied directly saying that the time had not come yet.
As for when it will arrive, Qi Mengmeng doesn’t know. She doesn’t worry about it and just lets things take their course.
When the Chinese New Year was approaching, Zheng Meili came back once to see Zheng Yingying.
Zheng Yingying's pregnancy looked good, and her mother-in-law rushed over from her hometown to take care of her.
Compared to others, Zheng Yingying's life is pretty good.
But when Zheng Meili looked at Qi Mengmeng's spacious yard, she felt sorry for Zheng Yingying.
Qi Zhijun obviously already knew that Zheng Yingying was his daughter, which means that Zheng Yingying and Qi Mengmeng are actually the same.
But now, Qi Mengmeng lives in a spacious and bright courtyard, Gu Guizhi also has a courtyard in the staff quarters, and Zheng Yingying still rents a house from someone else.
Zheng Meili felt sorry for Zheng Yingying in her heart, but she didn't dare show it on her face.
Qi Zhijun is developing very well in the Southern Military Region and there is still potential for advancement. Zheng Meili and Qi Zhijun have no children, so she dare not offend Qi Mengmeng.
Zheng Meili stayed for five days. Except for visiting Qi Mengmeng, she stayed at Zheng Yingying's place for the rest of the time. She bought a lot of food for Zheng Yingying and brought a lot of fabrics for her future child.
Qi Mengmeng also went to see Zheng Yingying once.
Zheng Meili took the initiative to mention that she bought some soft fabrics for Zheng Yingying for the child to wear, and she would also buy some for Qi Mengmeng when she became pregnant in the future.
Qi Mengmeng didn't care about these things. She was not short of money or things. Besides, she didn't have any children, so she wouldn't argue with a pregnant woman.
Seeing that Qi Mengmeng was so insightful, Zheng Meili bought her a set of clothes before leaving, and Qi Mengmeng accepted it with a smile.
She knew very well that Zheng Meili was not her stepmother, but only Qi Zhijun's wife.
Qi Mengmeng spent the 1976 Spring Festival in the staff housing estate.
Gu Guizhi did not have a holiday this time, and they had daily training, so they did not return to Andu. Qi Mengmeng asked Yu Xiaoman to prepare some food for her in advance and sent it to Qi Huilan and Qi Zhijun respectively.
Qi Huilan sent them a lot of food and new clothes, and also remitted two hundred yuan to Qi Mengmeng.
Qi Zhijun sent Qi Mengmeng a lot of national bills and some special food from the south. In addition, he also remitted 200 yuan separately. He wrote on the letter that this was Qi Mengmeng's New Year's money.
Qi Mengmeng didn’t know whether Zheng Yingying had this money, but since this money was given by her biological father, she accepted it.
Although only Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng were there for the New Year this time, there were many people in the family compound and children came to visit from time to time, so Qi Mengmeng did not feel lonely.
But Li Laidi, who lived next door, often stood at the door of her house, holding her child with a sad look on her face.
Qi Mengmeng felt that she had done nothing wrong to her and did not want to quarrel and make herself unhappy during the New Year, so she returned to the city after the first day of the New Year.
The next day, Qi Mengmeng went to work. Seeing others full of enthusiasm, Qi Mengmeng could feel it, but she didn't want to move her hands.
I guess only people of this era would go to work during the Chinese New Year, and everyone is still in such good spirits.
At lunch time, Qi Mengmeng walked to the cafeteria. Everyone was talking about the food in the cafeteria with great interest. They said that the cafeteria had made braised pork today, and everyone was discussing whether to take it home.
Today, it was Yu Xiaoman who served rice to Qi Mengmeng again. She scooped a big spoonful of rice for Qi Mengmeng and winked at her, almost making the people behind her think that she had an eye cramp.
Qi Mengmeng guessed that Yu Xiaoman must have something to tell her, so she didn't leave in a hurry after dinner and waited until Yu Xiaoman came to find her.
"Mengmeng, I have good news. Guess what it is?" Yu Xiaoman's face was full of smiles, and her hand was casually placed on her belly.
Qi Mengmeng took a look at her belly and said knowingly, "Are you pregnant?"
"Mengmeng, you are so smart." Yu Xiaoman suppressed the joy in his heart and nodded heavily.
"I didn't expect that I could actually get pregnant. You're so right. As expected, as long as I take good care of myself and work hard to make money, the baby will come."
"I slept all day yesterday, and the bastard said something was wrong with me and insisted that I go to the hospital. I didn't expect that I was actually pregnant."
"I didn't expect to get pregnant so soon. Let me tell you, Mengmeng, the doctor I see is really good. How about I take you to see him?"
