Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 131 You are pregnant

Qiao Runming panicked, but Qiao Manman calmly said, "Uncle Captain really has a keen eye. These two educated youths are indeed related to my father."

It was quite far, and I didn't expect to run into them in Qingshan Brigade. It was fate that brought us together.

Wang Defa was a shrewd man; upon hearing this, he knew there was an untold story behind it.

Thinking of how Qiao Laosan was not well received at the Qiao family, he had a guess in his mind.

She smiled and didn't dwell on the topic.

He gestured for the two educated youths to sit down: "Once you've come to our Qingshan Brigade, we're all one family."

We don't have all that shady stuff here. As long as you work hard, you won't have to worry about food and drink.

Qiao Haoyang and Qiao Chengping expressed their gratitude.

Qiao Manman went back into the house, took out several enamel mugs, and made tea for everyone.

Wang Defa was full of praise for the authentic West Lake Longjing tea.

Qiao Haoyang knew, however, that this was not the batch with the best quality.

He even thought to himself, "I wonder if my sister doesn't know that Longjing tea is graded, or if she doesn't have enough money to buy the best batch!"

If Qiao Manman knew, she would definitely say, "The best ones should definitely be kept for ourselves. As for entertaining guests, that's enough."

They're all native country folk; they wouldn't appreciate anything too high-end.

Seeing Ma Qiuhua standing by the chicken coop playing with Xiaohua, Qiao Manman called out, "Aunt Qiuhua, come and rest!"

Ma Qiuhua strolled over with small, quick steps: "Oh my, how do you raise your chickens? Their feathers are so shiny! Is it the one I brought over earlier?"

"Yes, you're the one who cut those wings! It's probably because our yard is big and we don't keep Xiao Hua under control, so she wanders around all day and grows strong."

Qiao Manman handed Ma Qiuhua a cup of tea: "Try it. I brought it back from Shanghai. I heard that many leaders like to drink this tea."

"Really?" Ma Qiuhua took a sip, but didn't notice anything special.

He chuckled awkwardly and said, "Well, we country folk really can't stomach fine food. In my opinion, even sugar water is sweeter!"

Upon hearing this, He Nian went inside, brought out a jar of white sugar, and scooped a spoonful for Ma Qiuhua.

As the sugar dissolved, Ma Qiuhua took a sip: "Yes, yes, that's the taste! This sugar and tea is so addictive!"

Qiao Manman smiled but didn't say anything. She went into the kitchen and cooked the vegetarian dishes.

In about ten minutes, the food was served.

Everyone was quite reserved; no one touched anything, and they chatted while eating.

Knowing what Qiao Manman was thinking, Ma Qiuhua took the initiative to tell her, "That girl, Qin Erhua, was diagnosed with some kind of poisoning... Anyway, she's not quite right in the head anymore."

Zhao Zhong stopped pretending and beat him three times a day, almost killing him. He even threatened to divorce him, saying he couldn't live with a fool.

I think he's just feeling ashamed because he was cheated on. He can't take it out on his own brother, so he's just bottling it up.

In the end, it was only after the old lady of the Zhao family stepped in that the matter was brought under control.

They said that no matter whose child they are, they all bear the Zhao surname, and no outsider should benefit!

Qiao Manman gave a thumbs up, thinking this family was truly amazing.

"And Zhao Di from the Zhao family, I heard she found a rich boyfriend."

In just half a month, she's like a completely different person. She's wearing new clothes and buying delicious food.

But the man never came to the village to propose marriage.

"Girl, do you think she might have found an old man?"

The words had barely left his mouth when the captain coughed lightly: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Ma Qiuhua smiled, not afraid at all. She lowered her voice and gossiped with Qiao Manman.

Qiao Manman picked up a piece of fish for her: "Aunt Qiuhua, have a taste, this is genuine seafood!"

Ma Qiuhua responded and was just about to eat when she saw He Nian turn pale and turn to the side to dry heave.

Qiao Runming's hand froze in mid-air, looking completely bewildered.

Qiao Manman quickly stepped forward to pat He Nian's back and asked her, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

He Nian shook her head: "Mother is fine, she just thinks this fish is particularly fishy!"

He then vomited twice more.

"Oh dear girl, your mother wouldn't be pregnant, would she?!"

Qiao Manman had the same guess in her mind, and she asked the system, "System, can you help me check my mother's health condition?"

The system shook its head: "I'm sorry, host, your mother has not taken any fertility pills, so the system cannot know the condition inside her uterus."

Qiao Manman was disappointed, having missed out on two merit points for nothing.

But these are my own parents. I can't force them or secretly drug them just for the sake of merit points!

He sighed and said, "Mother, you go back to your room and rest. I'll go and call Doctor Su over to take a look at you!"

He Nian stopped her: "Let's eat first, Mother won't touch the fish!"

Actually, she had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on. She just hadn't thought about it in that direction.

Qiao Manman didn't insist, sat back down, and invited everyone to eat.

However, each of them had their own thoughts, and the previous liveliness was gone.

After they finished eating, Qiao Haoyang volunteered to call the doctor, while Qiao Manman brought out a watermelon in an enamel mug and shared it with everyone.

Ma Qiuhua said with a smile, "Man'er, I've never seen anyone cut a watermelon into pieces like this before."

It looks quite unique!

"It's not that there are too many people and not enough melons, this is the only way to let everyone have a taste!"

Ma Qiuhua nodded, picked up a piece of watermelon with her chopsticks, and put it in her mouth.

"Mmm, it's so sweet! I've never eaten such a good melon before!"

Qiao Manman thought to herself, "Of course! This is a mutated watermelon."

Wang Defa, however, saw the potential: "Girl, are these melons high-yielding? If our production team could grow them..."

"Ha, Captain, I brought this back from Hai City!"

Good heavens! Her mutated wheat took a long time to sprout, but this watermelon has seeds. What if the seeds don't grow? Wouldn't all her efforts be for nothing?

"The climates are different on both sides, I'm afraid..."

Wang Defa felt a little regretful, but was unwilling to give up: "Why don't you go back and try planting some?"

Qiao Manman shoveled the sunflower seeds on the table together: "Sure, as long as you don't mind the trouble."

Wang Defa happily put away the melon seeds, just as Qiao Haoyang arrived with Doctor Su.

"Dr. Su, please, could you please take a look at my mother?"

Su Zhiyuan nodded and reached out to touch He Nian's wrist.

After a moment, she exclaimed in surprise, "You're pregnant!"

That's really quite strange.

She hadn't given birth in over a decade, and now she's pregnant.

Who spread the rumor that Qiao Laosan's wife couldn't have children? This is what it looks like.

"Dr. Su, how is my mother's health? And is the baby in her belly healthy?"

"I'm fine. I'm in good health, and my meridians are strong. I eat well, drink well, and rest well, so there are no major problems."

Qiao Manman breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Dr. Su."

He took out fifty cents from his pocket and went back into the house to grab a handful of lotus seeds: "I'll have to trouble you to take care of my mother from now on!"

Su Zhiyuan nodded: "Of course!"

After saying goodbye to the brigade leader and Aunt Qiuhua, I left.

After walking quite a distance, Ma Qiuhua finally came to her senses: "Well, I have something to do at home, so I'll head back first!"
