Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 621 Double Happiness
Recently, my father-in-law's family had a happy event. Mao Xueshan was promoted to the executive deputy mayor of Yingcheng City.

After several years as a department-level cadre, the old man finally stepped up to the threshold of a deputy department-level cadre. This step is a natural barrier for many officials.

It's a pity that Mao Xueshan passed this hurdle a bit late, and the highest achievement in his life, who will retire in a few years, is probably at the official level.

But anyway, it is a happy thing.

He Ping took his wife and children to the old man's house to congratulate him and have a meal.

Mother-in-law Wen Guizhen cooked a table full of dishes, and the family sat around and ate happily.

"Dad, Mom. You and the elders must change their residence this time, right?" He Ping asked with a smile.

Mao Xueshan said: "Yes!"

Wen Guizhen sighed: "I have lived in this house for more than ten years, and I am really reluctant to leave unexpectedly."

Mao Xueshan comforted: "The city has already been arranged, and the conditions over there are not bad."

"I know it's good, but I'm a little bit reluctant. After all these years, the neighbors have feelings for each other."

Mao Xueshan was also recalled by Wen Guizhen, and the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly fell into a touch of sadness.

He Ping picked up some food for Mao Chunhua, "Eat more, I think your appetite has not been good for the past two days. Mom made so many delicious food today, you should eat more."

Mao Chunhua said wearily, "I have no appetite."

"Eat more if you don't have an appetite. You are not in a good state today."

Seeing that her daughter was not in good condition, Wen Guizhen asked her in a low voice, "Is something wrong?"

"no!"

"Hasn't been here?"

"A few days late, it happened before."

Wen Guizhen urged: "Go to the hospital tomorrow."

Mao Chunhua didn't really want to go. In the past few years, she had "wolf is coming" several times, and she was afraid.

"No, let's talk about it in two days."

"Go as soon as you are told, why are you so stubborn?"

The mother stared, Mao Chunhua's words softened, "Okay!"

Back home at night, Mao Chunhua told He Ping that he was going to the hospital tomorrow.

She hadn't told He Pingyue before that it was late. He Ping was a little apprehensive, but also had some expectations, "Do you think it will be true this time?"

Mao Chunhua said: "How do I know, I will know when I arrive at the hospital tomorrow."

The next day, the county hospital outpatient.

"Doctor, how are you?" He Ping asked nervously.

Mao Chunhua also looked at the doctor expectantly.

"I'm pregnant."

Those three short words filled He Ping's heart with ecstasy in an instant, with an overjoyed expression on his face, extremely excited.

He lowered his head and was about to hug Mao Chunhua, only to find that she had already burst into tears.

"Don't cry, don't cry, it's a happy thing."

He Ping hurriedly hugged Mao Chunhua and comforted him.

Mao Chunhua said with tears: "Happy! I am happy!"

The two have been married for six or seven years and have not had any children. Needless to say, the couple is already under great psychological pressure.

Especially in the past two years, Mao Chunhua was often depressed because of the child's affairs, and now she finally had good news. The pressure and depression accumulated in her heart for the past few years were swept away, and she couldn't help crying with joy!

The couple thanked the doctor with gratitude and walked out of the hospital.

The surprise in their hearts could not be expressed in words, and they immediately drove home to share the news with Wen Guizhen.

"Double happiness, double happiness!"

Wen Guizhen was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, she clasped her hands together, she didn't know which god she was thanking.

"No, you have to tell your father the news quickly."

In a hurry, Wen Guizhen went to the county government to find Mao Xueshan.

He Ping stopped her: "Mom, it's the same when Dad comes back at night, he's so busy with work."

"How busy is it for a while?"

Wen Guizhen refused to listen to He Ping's dissuasion and insisted on going, so He Ping had no choice but to drive the mother and daughter to the county government.

The car drove to the county government | Mao Xueshan was in a meeting.

"Auntie, He Ping, Chunhua, why are you here?"

Several people mobilized the teachers so much that Zhang Guoqiang was a little nervous, thinking that something big happened at home.

Wen Guizhen pulled Zhang Guoqiang and whispered a few words, and he nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Zhang Guoqiang hurried into the conference room after speaking with Wen Guizhen, and came out after a while.

"Close it up, it'll be over soon, let's go to the office for a while!"

Everyone sat in the office for a while, drank tea, and Mao Xueshan ended the meeting.

"What Guoqiang said is true? Are you really pregnant?"

"It can still be a holiday. I just went to the hospital this morning."

"Great, great!" Mao Xueshan said excitedly.

On this day, Mao Xueshan was uncommon and left half a day early.

The family sat at the dining table again, and the scene of yesterday seemed to be right in front of them.

Wen Guizhen sighed, "It's really not easy!"

He Ping held Mao Chunhua's hand and looked at each other, full of excitement and joy.

Mao Xueshan said: "Double happiness is coming, double happiness is coming!"

Xiao Zhuer, who just came back from school, was even happier, "I finally have younger siblings to play with!"

He Ping:?
Mao Chunhua:?

Mao Xueshan:?

Wen Guizhen:?

Xiao Zhu'er shrank her neck, "I mean to play with my younger siblings."

Well, that's about the same, everyone nodded.

After talking about the joy and excitement in my heart, the most talked about topic at the dinner table was how to protect the pregnancy.

"Chunhua, it's hard to conceive a baby, you have to be more careful! Don't go to work, just stay at home and raise your baby with peace of mind!" Wen Guizhen said.

"Mom, it's okay. I went to the hospital today, and the doctor said it's only been a month and a half."

"You girl, it will be too late when you have something to do. You can't go to work when you are. Your top priority now is to raise your baby at home, and give birth to my grandson in a safe, smooth, and healthy way. Strong?"

Mao Chunhua looked at He Ping and his father, who nodded in agreement.

"Alright then!" she compromised.

"now it's right!"

Mao Chunhua said to his mother: "Mom, don't be the eldest grandson, what if it's a girl!"

"It's rare for a girl to be a mother, as long as you can be born, mother will be happy."

He Ping patted Mao Chunhua's hand, "Both boys and girls are the same, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Mao Chunhua nodded meekly.

The whole family unanimously approved Mao Chunhua to rest at home to raise the baby. The mother-in-law Wen Guizhen volunteered to take care of Mao Chunhua. She had retired the year before last and was fine at home.

"But what about Dad? He's going to work in the city soon." He Ping said.

"For a man of his age, he won't starve to death. The most important thing now is my grandson." Wen Guizhen said.

Mao Xueshan said with a smile: "It's all right, the houses in the city have been arranged, I eat in the cafeteria every day, there is no problem."

He Ping and Mao Chunhua both live in the town now, very close to their mother-in-law's home, but Wen Guizhen decided to move to He Ping's small courtyard to take care of Mao Chunhua.

Poor parents in the world!

The birth of He Ping and Mao Chunhua was not easy, even Mao Xueshan and Wen Guizhen waited anxiously.

Now that the couple has finally welcomed a child that truly belongs to them, how can Mao Xueshan and Wen Guizhen be unhappy?
