Looking at the excited woman and meeting her bright, expectant eyes, He Tingchuan couldn't bring himself to refuse. He called Li Aiguo, and soon a jeep arrived.
He Tingchuan helped Yun Jin, who had already started singing revolutionary songs, into the back seat. After she was settled, He Tingchuan followed her into the back seat. The passenger seat became empty, and Li Aiguo had to glance at the rearview mirror if he wanted to talk to someone.
"Sister-in-law looks quite well today. She seemed like she hadn't slept well yesterday, which worried Brother Chuan terribly." The last four words made He Tingchuan uncomfortable, so he kicked the back of his chair.
Li Aiguo, seemingly unfazed, said, "I wasn't lying. Everyone saw it. Brother Chuan really cares about his wife."
Yun Jin smiled, tilting her head to look at the man with a cold, hard jawline and a handsome profile. She nodded with a smile, "Yes, I'm his wife. If he doesn't care about me, who else would he care about?"
Li Aiguo thought about it and realized that it made sense. Otherwise, his cold-hearted brother Chuan would have specially built an open-air "hot spring" to make his sister-in-law happy.
In the past, when they were on training exercises, they would pass by natural hot springs, even in the freezing cold, and they were not allowed to soak in them. This shows how strict Brother Chuan is. But when it comes to his own wife, he is different.
Tsk tsk tsk!
Even if there's no hot spring, we'll dig one out.
From now on, if anyone dares to say that Brother Chuan doesn't care about his wife, Li Aiguo will be the first to disagree.
The car stopped at the People's Department Store. Yun Jin knew that she had come to see Liu Sanchen for some reason.
It's been more than half a month since I last came here.
When Yun Jin came this time, Zhao Tingting saw her and her eyes shrank back. She was too embarrassed to greet Yun Jin and scurried away like a mouse seeing a cat.
Yun Jin found it amusing that the arrogant Zhao Tingting could be so pathetic. She was indeed a bully who preyed on the weak. She had been so arrogant in front of her before.
Liu Sanchen was surprised that He Tingchuan and the others came so early. He invited them to sit in his office and asked Yuan Qing to greet Yun Jin: "Sister-in-law, go to the mall and take a look. If you like anything, just buy it and get an insider price."
Yun Jin smiled and nodded, knowing they had something to say. She didn't want to disturb them and went shopping with Yuan Qing.
I bought quite a lot before, but now there doesn't seem to be anything worth buying.
However, Yun Jin doesn't necessarily have to buy anything when she goes shopping.
Despite saying there wasn't much to buy, Yun Jin still couldn't resist buying things for children.
Yuan Qing saw through her thoughts, glanced at her seven-month pregnant belly, and said, "If you like, sister-in-law, you can take one or two things. Babies need a lot of things, and since this is your first child, you probably don't have many things readily available."
"After the eldest child finishes using it, we can keep it for the second child. Anyway, it's not a waste to buy it. It can be used by several children. The quality is very good and it won't break easily."
Yun Jin smiled and shook her head: "Our family probably won't need it. I don't want to have too many children; one is enough."
If she hadn't already been pregnant after transmigrating, Yun Jin would never have had any intention of having a child.
She's already pregnant, so she has no choice but to give birth.
Let her have one, then two, then three—it's terrifying to even think about.
Yun Jin doesn't consider herself a patient person when it comes to taking care of children.
Having a third child is great, but she doesn't have that much energy.
Having one child is enough; raising them well is also a contribution to the country.
Yuan Qing looked at Yun Jin, who had said these words, in disbelief, as if she had never heard them before.
You know, at this time everyone wanted to have more children. Four, five, six, seven or eight children were the standard. To be honest, this was the first time Yuan Qing had ever heard of someone who only wanted to have one child.
That's what Yun Jin said.
Yuan Qing was at a loss for words for a moment, and stammered, "Commander He, are you willing?"
"It's my belly, I get to decide what to do with it." Yun Jin picked out a few pairs of new socks and asked Yuan Qing to get them for her. They were small and cute, and the baby could wear them after birth.
As for the shocked and puzzled expression on Yuan Qing's face, Yun Jin offered no explanation.
She's just responding to the call, okay? In a few years, a policy will be introduced that allows only one child.
With such a positive response, she deserves an award for improvement.
On He Tingchuan's side, Liu Sanchen gave him the things, and He Tingchuan gave Liu Sanchen the tickets and money. Liu Sanchen counted them and found that there were extras, so he took out two "Big Reunion" tickets.
"I'll use the extra money to buy good food for my future nephew. We know him there, so the prices are much cheaper. Brother Chuan will have to raise a child in the future, and there will be many expenses!" Liu Sanchen didn't want to earn He Tingchuan's money.
He Tingchuan stuffed it back; "Don't worry, my salary is enough to support my wife and children. You need to entertain others for help, so I can't let you lose money."
Liu Sanchen knew that if he refused again, it would hurt the brotherly relationship, so he could only accept it with a smile.
Li Aiguo focused on the key point: "Is your sister-in-law pregnant with a girl?"
Liu Sanchen was also shocked: "You found out so quickly whether it's a boy or a girl?"
Daughter?
It would be so great if he had a son. With someone as outstanding as Brother Chuan, it would be a shame if he didn't have a son.
He Tingchuan never expected that his slip of the tongue would make something so unfounded sound so real.
It's all that woman's fault. She kept calling him "daughter's dad," which made him think it should be a daughter.
Faced with their curious gazes, He Tingchuan coughed lightly and said, "I don't know, but I want a daughter."
Li Aiguo looked disappointed: "What's so good about daughters? What if Brother Chuan doesn't have a son..."
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Sanchen stepped on his foot. Looking at the somewhat unhappy He Tingchuan, Liu Sanchen joked with a smile: "A daughter for the first child, a son for the second is fine too. Anyway, Brother Chuan and Sister-in-law are young, and it's not like they're only having one child."
He Tingchuan thought so too; after all, they were young, and who knew what the future held?
He hoped the baby in her belly would be a girl.
