7. The military wife in the lower hall (7)

Li Chunhua almost said it excitedly, but before she could speak, her mind turned around. Shi Heng was still here. If she guessed wrong, Shi Heng's joy would be in vain.

Thinking like this, Li Chunhua stopped eating: "Xuezhu! If you don't feel well, tell mom earlier! Get up and walk around quickly. Don't eat now. Mom will take you to the health team to have a look."

"Shi Heng! Don't follow me. Stay at home and look after the house. Your wife and I will be back soon."

He Xuezhu was pulled to her feet before she could react. Li Chunhua accompanied her, "Be careful. If you feel uncomfortable, don't walk so fast..."

"Come on, mom will help you."

He Xuezhu had never experienced such an attentive mother-in-law. She was a little at a loss when she was supporting her, but she didn't dare to refuse. She subconsciously looked back and saw her husband standing in the courtyard, looking at them and smiling. She turned her head and said to her. Waved at her.

"Xuezhu, follow mom. I'll wait for you at home."

Just such a smile made her relax all over, and she unconsciously smiled back.

After watching his mother and daughter-in-law leave, Lin Shiheng walked around the house, looking around to see if anything was broken.

He is often away from home, and even when he comes back, he only stays for a few days before leaving. There are only two women in the family. No matter how hard they endure, they cannot keep up with their physical strength for many things. Li Chunhua has a strong temper and refuses to ask others for help. This is not a problem. I will leave the important things until my son comes back.

After wandering around like this, Lin Shiheng discovered that the rice vat at home was covered with a plastic sheet and an umbrella was placed on it.

When I looked up, I saw that the roof above the rice vat was indeed leaking, and it was also covered with plastic sheeting. However, judging from the fact that the plastic sheet was still collecting water, it was probably of little use even if it was useful.

He rolled up his sleeves, stepped forward and grabbed both sides of the rice vat, and lifted the entire rice vat with the rice vat.

When Li Chunhua came back with a smile on her face, carefully caring for her daughter-in-law who also had a happy smile, she saw that the rice vat at home had been carried from the leaky area to the area where there was no leakage, and the big wok had been cleaned. Even the missing steps outside have been temporarily replaced with wooden boards.

The smile on Li Chunhua's face suddenly became more comforting. She was about to go in and call Lin Shiheng, but she heard her son calling from behind: "Mom, Xuezhu, are you back?"

"Shi Heng? Why did you come back from outside?"

Lin Shiheng smiled and showed them the light bulb in his hand: "Mom, the light bulb in your room doesn't work. I'll buy a new one for you."

Normally, Li Chunhua would have held her son's hand and lamented that her son was still filial, but now, she smiled as if she had won a 10 million grand prize and couldn't wait to announce the good news.

"Shi Heng! Xuezhu is pregnant!!"

Lin Shiheng's expression immediately perfectly showed the excitement of surprise and joy, as if in a dream.

"Xuezhu!! Is Xuezhu pregnant? Am I going to be a father?!!!"

——Click!

There was a crisp sound, and he was so excited that he actually crushed the light bulb in his hand.

He Xuezhu was touching her belly and watching him smile. She was startled when she saw the light bulb was broken. She quickly stepped forward to check: "Shi Heng, how are you? Did you prick your hand?"

"it's okay no problem!"

Lin Shiheng clapped his hands quickly to get rid of the broken glass, and hugged his wife with a face full of ecstasy: "Xuezhu, you are pregnant! I am going to be a father!!"

There was no doubt about his excitement. He Xuezhu herself was immersed in the joy of becoming a mother. Being so infected by her husband and seeing him so happy, the smile on her face suddenly became even happier.

Unexpectedly, Shi Heng was so happy. He must have been looking forward to this child for a long time.

The couple reached out to touch each other's abdomen carefully, and the other looked down at her husband with a smile. Li Chunhua looked at this scene and felt that her eyes, which had been crying before, were faintly hot.

She said that her son was so good and God would not be so cruel to him. Even if he was injured in the army and could not give birth, he still left a single seedling in Xuezhu's belly.

Afraid of letting her son see that she looked wrong, Li Chunhua wiped the corners of her eyes and made sure there were no more tears before coughing, "Okay Shi Heng, hurry up and help your wife sit down. She can't be tired now. I'll heat up the food." , Let’s forget it if we don’t know today. Tomorrow you go to your wife’s second aunt’s house and buy all the remaining old hens from her house. From now on, we will make chicken soup for Xue Zhu every day.”

"Mom, let me help you warm it up."

"Go, go, go. Your wife has a baby. Why don't you stay with her for a while? Mom tells you that when you are pregnant, your child will be in a good mood only if you are in a good mood."

"You don't understand these things, but Mom knows everything. From now on, just listen to Mom!"

Li Chunhua pushed her son back who wanted to help, and stepped into the kitchen with high-spirited confidence.

If before, Li Chunhua would be happy to know that her daughter-in-law was pregnant, but she would not take care of her so carefully, but isn't the situation different now?

This is the only Miaomiao in Lao Lin's family. Neither Shi Heng nor Xue Zhu has any experience. As a grandmother, she must take good care of her and make sure nothing goes wrong!

Li Chunhua happily heated up the food. As soon as she opened the curtain, she saw the young couple talking happily, which made her heart melt.

In the past, when she saw her son being so kind to her daughter-in-law, she might have felt a little sore, but after experiencing Shi Heng hiding all the pain and sadness and only giving her a smile as a mother, Li Chunhua now looked at the smile on her son's face. The smile left only gratitude.

Thank God, Shi Heng doesn't have to suffer so much.

She put the dishes on the table with a smile. He Xuezhu wanted to help but stopped her from reaching out, "If you get burned again, mom will do it." He Xuezhu had never been cared for so carefully by anyone before. She was a little overwhelmed for a moment and subconsciously looked at her husband. Lin Shiheng patted her hand soothingly: "Mom is right. You are pregnant now. It is better to be careful. I will do it." As he said that, he stood up and went to the kitchen to serve the dishes. Li Chunhua saw that he was not only concerned about his wife, which made her feel more comforted. She was happy, but she also complained: "It's just a few dishes. Mom can't carry them? You can just accompany Xuezhu, why do you help me?" "Look at what you said, Xuezhu is pregnant now, and you were pregnant with me at the beginning, too. Who can I treat if I don't treat you well?" Li Chunhua felt so comfortable after hearing this. The sour taste had long disappeared. When she left the kitchen and saw the affection on He Xuezhu's face, it became even stronger. "Come, Xuezhu, eat. After dinner, mom will tell you what pregnant women need to pay attention to."

As she said this, she went over in her mind the reasons why those people in the village lost their babies.

Pregnant women are most afraid of fatigue, shock and poor nutrition. She must take good care of Xuezhu. First of all, she must keep up with the food. As for the shock, Li Chunhua thought about it and felt that Xuezhu was very brave and should not be scared by anything. Even if there was something, she was scared by a madman who strolled over from the next village when she went out before, but as long as she, the mother-in-law, was calm, Xuezhu would not be afraid.

To exaggerate, from the time she Li Chunhua could remember until now, nothing could scare her!

Just as she was thinking, Lin Shiheng said, "Mom, are you going to tell Xuezhu about this later? Then I'll tell you about building a house first."

"Here's what I thought. Let's buy a new piece of land, build a bigger house, hire more people, and try to finish it as soon as possible."

Li Chunhua's expression suddenly hesitated: "Buy new land? Do we have enough money?"

"That's right!" Lin Shiheng clapped his hands: "Look at my brain. I was so happy to see you guys when I came back that I forgot about the business."

He stood up and went into the house under the puzzled eyes of Li Chunhua and He Xuezhu, and took out the big bag and handed it to Li Chunhua: "Here, take a look, don't be scared."

Li Chunhua smiled and glared at her son: "When did your mother grow up so big... Mom!!!"

She screamed and took the big bag He Xuezhu, who went to see curiously, was startled, but saw her mother-in-law hugging her bag in shock. She looked around vigilantly to make sure there were no outsiders, and then pulled Shi Heng over and asked in a low voice: "Where did you get so much money?!"

"Before I asked for leave and came back, I did a task, and this was given to me by the higher-ups."

Lin Shiheng smiled at her and He Xuezhu, who were still in a trance, and patted his chest: "Mom, Xuezhu, I will work harder in the future to let you live a good life."

Li Chunhua was still in shock, but He Xuezhu looked at her husband, thinking about what he had just said to her that he would take good care of her and the children in the future, and her mother-in-law's gentle treatment, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth happily: "Shi Heng, I believe you."

She thought that even if she didn't build a new house, she would live a good life.

***

A few days later, the news that the Lin family bought a piece of land again, wanted to build a new house, and hired people spread throughout the village.

The He family was shocked when they heard the news. It was said that Lin Shiheng was in poor health and needed medical treatment.

They didn't think that Lin Shiheng would lie to them. After all, since He Xuezhu married, this son-in-law has always kept his word. If it was Li Chunhua, that might not be the case.

He Xiaodi was very greedy for the money. Why didn't he think that being a soldier could make so much money before? Thinking that he had no money every time he wanted to play cards with his buddies, he immediately urged He's mother to go to the Lin family to borrow money.

The mother and son went again. This time, to show their sincerity, they also brought gifts.

As soon as He's mother heard about her daughter's pregnancy, she smiled and said while eating melon seeds: "This is a good thing, Xuezhu, you must have a big fat boy in your belly!" He Xuezhu touched her belly and whispered: "Mom, don't say that, the baby hasn't been born yet." "It's okay, eat more sour food and don't touch spicy food, sour boys and spicy girls, just don't give birth to a girl." Li Chunhua was just lifting the door curtain to come in, and she agreed with this sentence. That's right, she must give birth to a son! But when she raised her eyes, she saw her son's ugly face and his hands clenching the corner of the table slightly. Others didn't notice, but the mother saw it clearly. Her mind was clear immediately. That's right! Shi Heng can't give birth! Who can say the gender of this child for sure? If it's a son, it's okay. If it's a daughter, she wants a grandson, which makes Shi Heng feel uncomfortable! Li Chunhua immediately frowned and walked in with a gloomy face. "Who are you calling a little girl?! Am I, Li Chunhua, the kind of person who favors boys over girls?! As long as it's my Lin family's child, I love it equally, whether it's a boy or a girl!"

"I'm not saying this, mother-in-law, but your feudal ideas are really incredible. Don't say such things in the future, it's embarrassing!"

When they were engaged, He's mother, who had a heated discussion with Li Chunhua on the topic of "It's better to have a boy, but it's useless to have a girl. They all love boys and try to make Xuezhu give birth to a boy for the first time", was still in a daze, eating melon seeds.

This old woman, is she crazy? ?
