Chapter 175: Recruiting a Son-in-Law
Sheng Tunan was indeed very happy, not because of the Chinese medicine, but mainly because his grandfather could come, and his grandfather was in good health and had a straightforward personality. There was no generation gap or estrangement between them when they first met.
"Ouyang, Tunan, Xinyue, this is my homemade medicinal wine. It tastes good and doesn't make you drunk. It's also good for your health."
The old man took out a glass bottle, which contained a wild ginseng and other herbs.
Zhan Xinyue took it and poured wine for the three of them.
"Xinyue, the alcohol content of this wine is not high, female comrades can also drink it, it can increase qi and blood." Dong Guochang advised.
"Grandpa, Xinyue is pregnant." Sheng Tunan said first. It was okay to drink some red wine before, but this medicinal wine has medicinal effects, and I'm afraid it's not good for the fetus.
"Really?" Dong Guochang asked in surprise, "How long has it been? Do your parents know?"
Sheng Tunan: "It's almost three months. Xinyue and I were thinking of announcing the good news after three months."
Dong Guochang shook his head. "Mom and Dad are not strangers. There's no need to hide it from them. So, after dinner, you can call them and tell them. That way, they can prepare in advance."
After Sheng Tunan was found, Dong Wushuang called Dong Guochang and expressed her regret for not raising her son herself. She also said that after Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue had children, she would retire early to take care of them.
Dong Guochang asked Sheng Tunan to tell the good news because he wanted his daughter to apply to the school in advance.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of teachers in the military children's school, and there are many normal school students who want to come in. The school does not need Dong Wushuang, and her early retirement application should be approved soon.
"Okay, grandpa." Sheng Tunan nodded.
Because of the happy event that Zhan Xinyue was pregnant with triplets, Dong Guochang was in a very good mood to drink. Sheng Tunan had to go to work the next day, so he didn't dare to drink too much. He just drank a few glasses with him, but stopped after he got a little tipsy.
Ouyang Jie helped his son-in-law accompany his grandfather. He had been in the business world and had developed a good drinking capacity. He chatted with the old man and drank a bottle of medicinal wine and a bottle of Maotai before he stopped.
Zhan Xinyue called Dong Wushuang and told her mother-in-law that she was pregnant with three babies.
On the other end of the phone, Dong Wushuang was also very happy and wished he could retire immediately to take care of his daughter-in-law.
......
After eating and drinking, Sheng Tunan cleaned up the mess, washed up and went into the bedroom.
"Husband, come and take a look." Zhan Xinyue supported herself on the head of the bed with her hands, her belly hanging in the air, and asked Sheng Tunan to come and look at her belly.
"You see, the babies have grown, and my belly is bigger than before. But it's hard to see when you're lying flat or standing, so you can see it more clearly this way."
Sheng Tunan saw the extra flesh on his wife's white belly and pinched it gently, "Babies, be good and obedient in the belly, don't make trouble for your mother."
"Pfft," Zhan Xinyue was a little tired, so she turned over and lay flat on the bed, her head on the pillow, her hands caressing her belly and looking at the moon. "It's less than three months old, how can the babies hear? I guess their ears haven't grown well yet."
Sheng Tunan: "Then I will tell them every day, and when their ears grow back, they will be able to hear them immediately."
"Wife, you've worked hard." Sheng Tunan half-hugged Zhan Xinyue and kissed the beautiful woman on the face.
Zhan Xinyue said: "But I am also very happy. You know, I really want a child that belongs to you and me, my own child. Now three have come at once, I am so happy. And so far, I have not had morning sickness. Except that my dad restricts me from eating spicy food, I feel no different from before I got pregnant."
Sheng Tunan looked at his daughter-in-law quietly, feeling the holiness of maternal love emanating from her.
"Oh, by the way, I just felt your pulse and vaguely felt that there were three babies in your belly. But earlier, B-ultrasound would have shown it. I think Chinese medicine is very good, but it is not omnipotent. In the future, with the help of instruments, we can accurately know the condition of the mother or patient at the first time."
Zhan Xinyue is a Gemini, and her thoughts are rather eccentric. Fortunately, Sheng Tunan, who is a Libra, can keep up with her thinking and agreed, "Yes, the domestic productivity is not good now, especially for high-end instruments. No manufacturer can make them. Xinyue, after you give birth to the baby and recover, you can open a machinery factory. I can provide the design drawings of the instruments."
Zhan Xinyue nodded. She had a lot of money in her hands and wanted to do it now, but she knew Sheng Tunan would definitely disagree, so she didn't say anything and prepared to act first and report later.
"Tunan, there is something else I want to discuss with you."
"Wife, you say." Sheng Tunan couldn't help but kiss his lover's smooth forehead again.
Maybe, when you love someone, you will want to kiss him/her from time to time.
"Before, Lan Yuqing, the leader of the She ethnic group, saved my second brother's life. My mother gave me money and asked me to thank her for saving my life."
Zhan Xinyue knew that Lan Yuqing cared most about her fellow tribesmen. In addition to buying her a TV, she also spent money to buy telephone poles and wires. She also found the relevant departments in the name of her husband, Commander Sheng, and asked them to arrange for Jingxi Mountain to have electricity as soon as possible. She also bought a large amount of rice, oil, and cloth, which are indispensable things in life.
"Xinyue, you are pregnant now, and the mountain road is rugged and unsafe. I'd better take Peifeng up with me." Sheng Tunan said.
Zhan Xinyue is very skilled in martial arts and she is in the early stages of pregnancy, so she is not afraid of mountain roads at all.
She had bought the supplies, but hadn't gone because she was afraid that once she went up, she would be unable to resist and find an opportunity to kill Li Jian and Li Jinyan.
Zhan Xinyue is pregnant now, and she dare not kill any living beings for fear that it will be bad for the babies.
In addition, even if Li Jian and his son wanted to harm her, they would not be able to do anything because she was in the military area.
Therefore, Zhan Xinyue decided to kill her enemy from her previous life after giving birth to the baby.
"I feel that Lan Yuqing and Pei Feng are somewhat interested in each other, but not to the extent that they are willing to sacrifice their careers and clansmen for each other. It might not be a good idea for him to go up. You are busy, so let grandpa take a few people from the special forces up, what do you think?" Zhan Xinyue asked.
Li Jian and his son did not know Dong Guochang and would not attack a stranger. Grandpa was safe, and he was the elder, so it was most appropriate for him to thank Lan Yuqing for saving his grandson's life.
"Okay." Sheng Tunan nodded. Grandpa was in good health and eloquent. He arranged for brothers Li Hu and Li Erhu to go over and protect the old man, which would be foolproof.
The young couple agreed and fell asleep in each other’s arms.
She had a dreamless night and the next day, Zhan Xinyue asked her grandfather for his opinion.
When the old man heard that we were going to visit the She ethnic group, he immediately agreed happily.
Dong Guochang had long heard that the She people had wizards who could cure diseases and use poisons, and that the tribe leader also raised poisonous snakes and scorpions, which were also Chinese medicinal materials. The old man had been curious for a long time, but there were no She people in the north. Now that he had a chance, he couldn't wait until tomorrow and said he could go there today.
Sheng Tunan immediately called Li Hu and Li Erhu over, rented 13 ox carts, loaded with grain, oil, rice, flour and televisions, and headed for the She ethnic group.
The group arrived at their destination smoothly. Standing at the bridge, Dong Guochang saw a group of young women in She ethnic costumes singing and dancing under the thousand-year-old camphor tree at the entrance of the village, as if they were holding some ceremony.
The old man stopped a man on the road and asked, "Comrade, what are they doing?"
"Yes, it's their clan leader looking for a son-in-law." After the man answered, he ran over impatiently.
