"Let me discuss this with your father."
Mother Lu was worried about her daughter taking care of the child by herself, and she didn't want her son-in-law to take care of them in their old age, so she could only think of discussing it with the old man at night.
Section 58
"Don't worry, you and my dad will think about it slowly. It's still several months before I give birth." Lu Qingyan gently touched her belly and said
"Mom and Dad, let's eat." Gu Mingze brought out the prepared food and put it on the table and said
Mr. and Mrs. Lu came over to eat.
After finishing her meal, Lu Qingyan walked to the side and said to Gu Mingze while strolling: "When can you go to the city to buy me some books? Or I can go with you."
"Are you bored?" When Gu Mingze heard his wife say this, he knew that she was bored and wanted to read a book, but he didn't know what book to buy for her.
He was worried about letting his wife go to the city with him, and he was very conflicted for a while.
"I'd better go with you." Lu Qingyan knew from the man's expression that he didn't know how to buy books, and didn't even know what books to buy, so she decided to go with him when he went to the city.
"You are so pregnant, why are you still wandering around? What do you want to buy? Write down your name and ask Mingze to bring it back for you." When Lu's mother heard that her daughter wanted to go to the city, she immediately became unhappy.
"Mom, I don't know what book to buy, so I want to go and have a look." Lu Qingyan actually thought that she was only four months pregnant and her belly was normal, so it was time to start her career.
But she didn't know what the situation was now, so she wanted to follow the man to the city to take a look.
"It's okay, mother. It's just right for Xiaoyan to go to the city with me now. It's also a good opportunity for me to get some fresh air. If he wants to go with me in two months, I promise I won't agree." Seeing that his wife kept winking at him, Gu Mingze immediately agreed and persuaded his mother-in-law.
"Okay, okay, I don't care." When Mother Lu heard you say that, she no longer wanted to be the bad guy, so she turned around and glared at her daughter.
"I just want to go out for a walk. Otherwise, my belly will be bigger in two months and it will be inconvenient for me to go anywhere." Seeing her mother glaring at her, Lu Qingyan touched her belly and said aggrievedly.
"Go, go, go. No one is stopping you from going. Don't look so aggrieved, as if we have made you suffer so much." When Lu's mother saw her daughter's expression, she immediately surrendered, nodded repeatedly and let her go, and said that she would not care about her in the future.
After dinner, Gu Mingze went back to work, and Lu's father and mother went back to the house for a nap.
Lu Qingyan moved a chair to the door, took out the small cushion her mother made and placed it on the chair, then sat on it to bask in the sun.
"Big sister, have you finished your meal?" Qian Xiaomei had just finished cleaning the table and came out with a basin of dirty water. She happened to see Lu Qingyan basking in the sun, so she smiled and greeted her.
"Well, I just finished my meal and came out to bask in the sun. Did you just finish your meal too?" Lu Qingyan turned around and asked with a smile after hearing the noise.
"Well, I just finished cleaning up. I'll go pour out the dirty water first. We can talk again when I come back later." Qian Xiaomei said as she took the basin to the toilet to pour out the dirty water, rinsed it clean, and then came out with a clean basin and said:
"It's different in the city. Everything is so convenient."
"That's right. It's really convenient for doing anything." Lu Qingyan nodded and replied
"Your belly looks like you're six or seven months pregnant, right?" Qian Xiaomei put the basin into the house, brought out a small stool, sat at the door, looked at Lu Qingyan's belly and said
"No, it's only been four months." Lu Qingyan now suspected that she was pregnant with twins, but when they went to see the doctor, the doctor said that she was pregnant with only one.
"Your belly is too big, isn't it? You are not pregnant with two children?" When Qian Xiaomei heard the other party say that her belly was only more than four months pregnant, it suddenly reminded her of the woman in their team who was pregnant with twins at the time. Her belly was also this big when she was more than four months pregnant.
"No, I went to the hospital with Gu Mingze a few days ago, and the doctor said I was pregnant with one." Lu Qingyan touched her belly and said with a smile: "Maybe I ate too much and raised the baby too big."
"That's possible." When Qian Xiaomei heard her say that, she nodded in agreement.
If someone else said this, she would definitely not believe it.
But now the person she was talking about was Captain Gu’s wife, so she really believed it.
Because this person was enjoying such a good life. Not only did she eat well every day, but she was also served by her parents. Even her husband was obedient to her in everything. This was a life she could not even imagine.
"If that's the case, you should walk more when you have nothing to do, otherwise it will be difficult to give birth." Qian Xiaomei's mother-in-law was also standing at the door listening to them talking, and suddenly said
"Okay, I understand, Auntie." Lu Qingyan also knew that they were doing this for her own good, so she smiled and nodded in agreement.
"You look like you're carrying a boy." Seeing that Lu Qingyan was so easy to talk to, Qian Xiaomei's mother-in-law, Aunt Hua, looked at her belly and said
"Yes, my mother-in-law is very accurate in judging people. Sister, you are definitely pregnant with a boy." When Qian Xiaomei heard what her mother-in-law said, she nodded in agreement and looked at Lu Qingyan and said
"Uh, that shouldn't be the case, right?" When Lu Qingyan heard the two say that she was pregnant with a boy, she immediately became conflicted: "But I want a girl. This boy is too naughty."
"Big sister, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but how can you think like that?" When Qian Xiaomei heard her words, she immediately disagreed and said, "What's so good about that girl? She's a money-loser. It's better to have a boy. If she's left, she can not only support the family, but also provide for our old age. How great is that."
When Lu Qingyan heard the words "losing money", she frowned and said solemnly: "Sister-in-law, I don't agree with this. Now it's the new China, and women can hold up half the sky. How can you still say such things?"
"Oh, oh, sister-in-law, you said the wrong thing, you said the wrong thing." When Qian Xiaomei heard her say that, she quickly patted her mouth with her hand and said with a smile: "Don't blame sister-in-law for saying that. Our team is basically like this. We are used to it."
Qian Xiaomei has been here for quite a long time. At the beginning, she also spoke with “I" and "mine". Later, she saw that many people spoke with “I" and "mine". She practiced it secretly at home for a long time, and now she finally speaks properly.
"There are indeed many such people in the brigade, but we are also women, so don't look down on the girl." Lu Qingyan looked up at the sky and said: "The girl can also be trained well. She will work harder than the boy. When she grows up, she will also provide for your old age and take care of you."
