"hiss--"
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Stomach pain?"
Upon hearing what Mrs. Xia said, Ji's mother, who was doing laundry, also panicked and ran over in a hurry.
Xihe's frown slowly relaxed and he stroked his swollen belly with a bit of embarrassment on his face: "I was kicked by a child just now."
Mrs. Xia's eyes lit up, and she quickly leaned over and shouted, "Hey, dear, I'm your grandma, do you hear me?"
Suddenly, a small foot appeared on his belly.
At this time, Ji's mother was also overjoyed and shouted quickly: "Hey, I'm grandma."
The little guy was very considerate and gave Ji's mother a little toe. They were so happy that the two of them smiled with the corners of their mouths reaching behind their ears.
Xihe couldn't help but laugh, and he didn't know which little guy it was this time?
He must be his younger brother for being so naughty.
All things considered, this child is already eight months old.
The scorching summer outside has turned into spring, and Ji Changqing has been away for more than six months. Except for occasional phone calls in the first two months, they have become less and less frequent. In the past three months, contact has been completely lost.
Xihe guessed that his mission this time must be very dangerous.
A person like him would never fail to call back unless he couldn't be contacted.
Xihe lowered her eyes and stroked her belly gently. She would give birth to the child well, and then wait for him to come back and reunite the family.
The days passed, and Xihe was about to give birth. Now she would walk twice in the yard every day, with Ji's mother supporting her. She was scared every time, for fear of accidentally falling.
Xihe comforted her: "It's okay, Mom, don't worry so much."
Ji's mother opened her mouth and wanted to nod, but her throat was severely blocked.
There has been no news about her son. She couldn't help but inquire about the situation with other family members. Naturally, they all said good things, but it was said that they had never been on a mission for so long. It was too long...
She was very flustered, but she didn't dare let her daughter-in-law find out that she was still pregnant with the child.
"Xiaohe, it's almost done, let's go back to the house?"
Ji's mother carefully supported her.
Xihe was helpless, it hadn't been five minutes since he came out.
Turning around, Mrs. Xia helped her into the house.
In the middle of the night, Ji's mother suddenly woke up, and then she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep anymore. All she could think of was the image of her son lying in a pool of blood, calling her one after another.
"Mom, it hurts so much."
Ji's mother covered her mouth with the quilt, tears streaming down her face.
The next day, Xihe woke up and found that Ji Mu's eyes were black and blue.
He immediately blamed himself: "Mom, am I disturbing you because I wake up frequently at night?"
Ji's mother waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, it's just that I can't sleep." However, she felt even more uncomfortable in her heart.
My daughter-in-law is so good and she is pregnant with a child. If something happens...
After eating, she couldn't help it any longer. She told Mrs. Xia to take good care of her daughter-in-law, and sneaked into Chief Ge Ying's house under the pretext of going out. Bai Lan was very surprised when she opened the door.
"Auntie, what do you want?"
Ji's mother glanced around: "Miss Bai, I want to ask something. Can I go in and talk?"
Bai Lan raised her eyebrows and opened the door to let people in.
A few minutes later, after listening to Ji's mother's words, Bai Lan smiled: "Don't worry, Auntie, when my man comes back, I will ask him to help you ask."
"But, since Battalion Commander Ji is so powerful, he will be fine, so don't worry!"
Ji's mother breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Isn't Xiaohe about to give birth? I'm always worried, but you're right, everything will be fine!"
When Bai Lan heard this, she couldn't help but glance at her stomach, feeling depressed, Xia He hasn't been a year yet, right? Just got pregnant.
She has been married for three years and her stomach has not moved yet.
Sigh, it’s so irritating that people are so different from each other.
In the evening, when Ge Haonan came back, she mentioned Ji's mother's words to him.
Who knew, Ge Haonan was unexpectedly silent.
Bai Lan stopped folding clothes, then suddenly ran to Ge Haonan: "What's going on? Is something really wrong?"
Ge Haonan glanced at her, sighed, and sat down at the table, his thick brows furrowed tightly: "Changqing and the others are going to the border this time. According to the news, as early as two months ago, Changqing took several people with him. We lost contact with the soldiers, I’m afraid..."
Bai Lan's eyes widened and the clothes in her hands fell to the ground.
"This this……"
Suddenly, he felt extremely sympathetic to Xia He.
She was widowed at a young age and she would never quarrel with her again.
Ge Haonan glanced at her: "The specific notice hasn't come out yet, so don't go out and talk nonsense. Especially Xia He. She is still pregnant with the child. If something happens, I won't save you!"
Bai Lan: "..."
She rolled her eyes at him, picked up her clothes angrily, and turned away.
"Yes, yes, you, Ge Haonan, are a good person, and I, Bai Lan, am nothing but bad."
However, she couldn't hold it in anymore. Every time she saw Xihe, her eyes always showed sympathy and a trace of pride.
Look, it's better for her. Her family is rich, her husband is a battalion commander, and she's as beautiful as a flower.
Xihe:? ? ?
Her face was full of confusion, what was she looking at?
After watching Xihe, Bai Lan took a detour to the hospital and quietly told Zhou Qing about it.
Her tone was filled with regret: "It's a good thing you two are not together, otherwise you would be the widowed person now. Alas, if Xia He knew about it, he would definitely cry blind."
Zhou Qing stared blankly at the medical records in front of her, her eyes dazed.
Bai Lan lay down at the table: "At first I was thinking that although Ji Changqing is uneducated and looks cold, he is at least a battalion commander, so I introduced you to him."
"It turns out this guy doesn't like you!"
"Now it seems that this guy is indeed unlucky."
She shook her head: "This is called, blessed people will not enter unlucky homes! After a while, I will introduce you to a good one."
Zhou Qing couldn't help but smile, but shook her head and refused: "I'm also very busy at work, let's talk about this later."
-
On this day, Xihe was walking in the yard.
Ji's mother was supporting her and walking cautiously. Under the eaves, Mrs. Xia and Fatty Aunt were talking for a while, looking here from time to time.
Suddenly, Xihe felt that his stomach was falling a little bit.
Xihe:! ! !
She stopped.
Mother Ji quickly asked: "Are you tired? Come on, let's go into the house."
Xihe felt the moisture in his thighs, probably because his amniotic fluid had broken.
She swallowed and looked at Ji's mother: "Mom, I might be giving birth."
Ji's mother's eyes suddenly widened, and then she lowered her head to look at her legs. Sure enough, she saw a wet patch and shouted, "Xiaohe is about to give birth!"
In an instant, the entire compound became lively.
Mrs. Xia jumped up and ran directly to her precious granddaughter. Several women carefully put her on a cart and pushed her to the hospital.
Zhou Qing had just finished prescribing medicine for a patient when a group of people suddenly rushed in: "Nurse, hurry! Hurry!"
She was pulled over and saw a sweating woman on the cart.
With a solemn look on his face, he immediately ordered: "Quick, push into the ward!"
