After class at noon, Jiang Baige saw off the last few students and prepared to go home for dinner.
Walking on the street, I suddenly saw two familiar people. I didn’t expect to meet Wu Juan and Chen Wang at this time.
Wu Juan greeted her from a distance: "Comrade Bai Ge, I didn't expect to see you here."
Jiang Baige asked with a smile, "Comrade Wu Juan, what are you and your wife doing in town?"
She took a look at Wu Juan's belly and asked in surprise, "It seems like we haven't seen each other for just a few days, but her belly is already so big. Is she about to give birth?"
Wu Juan lowered her head and touched her belly, then answered with a smile.
"Well, just these few days."
Wu Juan was supported by Chen Wang, and they were also carrying a bag, as if they were going on a long journey.
Jiang Baige asked, "Are you going out?"
Chen Wang said, "Juanzi's belly is a little big. I don't dare let her give birth at home, so I plan to live in the county town first. If anything happens, I won't be afraid because there are doctors here."
Chen Wang has a flat head and has not been working in the fields for many years. He has been wandering around outside, and he looks like a ruffian.
Moreover, his skin is whiter than most men, and he doesn't look like a country man from the village. Standing together with Wu Juan, they are quite a match.
Jiang Baige thought that at this time, there were no cars entering the county town. Looking at her big belly, she seemed to want to find a place to rest.
It was noon, the sun was still so strong, and Wu Juan was so pregnant. It was too tiring for her to walk around the street.
Jiang Baige held Wu Juan's arm and said with a smile.
"Let's go! You two can go to my place and sit down. There's no bus to the county town right now. It won't be too late to go and wait for a bus when the time is almost up."
Wu Juan was pregnant and felt embarrassed to sit at someone else's house. She felt a little awkward and wanted to say no.
Chen Wang said: "Wife, the bus will take another two hours to arrive, otherwise, we can go and take a ride."
He was also worried that they would have nowhere to go for two hours and that his wife would be tired.
If you meet someone you know, it’s okay to disturb them.
Jiang Baige supported Wu Juan and said without further explanation.
"Oh! Let's go! We are not outsiders."
Wu Juan was at a loss, but her legs were indeed tired.
He smiled and said, "It's troublesome."
When Chen Jianguo brought them home, he had already prepared lunch.
Jiang Baige shouted, "Brother Jianguo, look who's here."
Chen Jianguo was serving food when he saw them come in together. He was stunned for a moment and greeted them.
"Chen Wang, why are you here? Come in quickly, it's very sunny outside."
When Chen Wang saw Chen Jianguo standing here, he was also stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Jianguo, why are you here?"
After he finished speaking, he couldn't hide the smile on his face. He thought, this is the young educated youth's house. Could it be that they are already living together?
Wu Juan said embarrassedly: "Comrade Chen, we are sorry to bother you."
As she spoke, she secretly pulled Chen Wang's sleeve.
He thought to himself, "They are an engaged couple. It's not normal for them to be together."
Didn't she and Chen Wang secretly date in the back mountain before they got married? They were the only two people in the town, so it was normal for them to take care of each other.
The way she looked at Chen Wang eating the melon was too obvious, so she reminded him not to stare at others like that.
Chen Wang looked down and saw his wife pulling his clothes. He quickly looked away and closed his mouth.
Jiang Baige didn't feel awkward at all and invited them to sit in the living room.
"Come on! Sit inside."
After entering the house, I saw that the food was already on the table.
Jiang Baige asked, "Comrade Wu Juan, you haven't had lunch yet, right? Just eat something."
It was lunch time, and she thought the couple probably hadn't eaten yet.
Wu Juan said hurriedly: "No need, we ate at home before leaving, we are not hungry now."
It takes one or two hours to get from Chenjia Village to the town by ox cart. As a pregnant woman, she couldn't go fast in the ox cart, so she was delayed for a long time on the road. However, she didn't feel hungry.
Jiang Baige smiled and said, "We ate it at home so early, so we'd have digested it by the time we got here."
"Besides, if you don't eat, the baby in your belly will be hungry too."
"If you take the bus this afternoon, you won't get to the county town until the evening. How can a pregnant woman like you endure these few hours?"
She said, not allowing Wu Juan to refute, and then said: "Eat something simple to fill your stomach, don't be so polite to us."
Wu Juan was embarrassed. She really didn't want to disturb others or cause trouble for them.
But seeing her say that, he still responded.
"Okay then! Sorry to bother you."
Two men were talking at the door, listening to what they were saying.
Chen Jianguo said, "Comrade Wu Juan, please don't be polite with us."
"Your man and I grew up together, we are brothers. You should feel like you are at home here."
After he finished speaking, he patted Chen Wang on the shoulder.
"Come on, follow me to the kitchen and let them talk here."
Others may not know what Chen Wang is doing, but Chen Jianguo knows something about it.
It has been a long time since they last saw each other, and he wanted to talk to him about a few things.
After Jiang Baige saw the two men leave, she started talking to Wu Juan and asked about her reaction to the pregnancy.
Because Chen Jianguo had already cooked for two people, it would not be enough for two more people.
Chen Jianguo said, "Since you're here, you can't go hungry. Let me make some noodles! This will come quickly."
Chen Wang said carelessly: "Okay, you are the master, I will listen to you."
Chen Jianguo glanced at him and quickly interrupted him.
"Don't talk nonsense about master or not."
Chen Wang laughed: "Hey, big brother, I'm going to be a father soon. When can we drink at your wedding?"
"Now that you two have the right time and place, why don't you seize the opportunity?"
Chen Jianguo added water to the pot and sighed, "Next year! It's too late this year."
His wife is just eighteen, but they are both very busy, so they haven't considered getting married yet.
Chen Wang lit the fire behind the stove and cooked noodles. He glanced at Chen Jianguo and had something to say, but he lowered his head and busy himself with his own things, and ultimately did not speak.
Chen Jianguo said: "If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have something to say, fart quickly. Why are you hesitating?"
Chen Wang chuckled and asked what he wanted to ask.
"You two are living together now. If you get the baby and get married while pregnant, it will be a double blessing. My aunt will definitely be very happy."
Chen Jianguo held a watering can in his hand and tapped it lightly on Chen Wang's head.
"What are you talking about, little brat! I just came here to cook for him and will be leaving soon."
He explained quickly, fearing that Chen Wang would misunderstand that they were living together or something.
Chen Wang touched his forehead lightly, said nothing, and quickly helped to light the fire.
They have been fighting since they were young, so this little pain is nothing. It's just that he talks too much.
Seeing that Chen Jianguo was so familiar with cooking, Chen Wang started joking again.
"Jianguo, it seems you've cooked a lot. Your movements are so skillful, you look like a young wife."
