Su Qing sighed silently in his heart, he didn't know what kind of task he would have now, let alone when he would come back, he wanted to make a promise to Song Xinshu, but he didn't know how to speak.

In fact, Song Xinshu also knew it in his heart, but he still wanted to ask.

The two hugged quietly for a while, Song Xinshu looked up and said to Su Qing: "No matter when you come back, I will wait for you at home, seeing that there are still a few months before the New Year, if you can't come back for the New Year, I will really be sad." ”

Su Qing took her shoulder hand with some strength and said, "This is the first year we have spent together, I will definitely come back, you can wait for me at home with peace of mind, okay?" ”

Song Xinshu buried his head in his arms and rubbed it, and then said, "Then when are you leaving?" ”

Su Qing said: "Tomorrow night, someone will come to answer me, I have to go quietly, you talk to your father." ”

"Then I'll prepare some clothes and dry food for you, and you can take them with you on the road."

Su Qing smiled and said, "After I left, I went directly to the army, and I didn't need to bring clothes and dry food, so I didn't have to bother." ”

Although Su Qing said that there was no need to prepare, Song Xinshu still secretly took some of Su Qing's favorite pastries and put them in the box, if he didn't prepare something for him, he would never be happy in his heart.

By the end of the night, Su Qing had already packed his bags and waited for Ning Ji to come and answer him.

Song Xinshu originally wanted to send him away, but Su Qing was afraid that someone would see him, so he let Song Xinshu stay at home and prepare to go out in his night clothes.

Song Xinshu put a small box of pastries prepared by himself in Song Xinshu's hand, looked at him and said, "There are a few pieces of nougat you like here, you can take it, eat one when you miss me." ”

Su Qing put the delicate little box in the palm of his hand, although it was very light, but it weighed a thousand pounds in his heart.

Su Qing put the small box into his arms, patted it and said, "In the days to come, this will be my baby." ”

Seeing Song Xinshu staring at himself intently, he only felt that his heart was moved, and he pulled Song Xinshu into his arms.

He kissed her lightly on the lips, touched her face, and said, "I'm leaving." ”

Song Xinshu nodded, looking at his back as he left, only to feel that his chest was stuffy, and tears slowly overflowed from his eyes.

These days, she has become accustomed to two people living here, and now that Su Qing is suddenly gone, not only is this house empty, but her heart is also very empty.

After Su Qing left, Song Xinshu didn't know what she should do, it was too early to go to bed, but it was already dark outside, and the candles on the table were about to burn out, so she didn't bother to get a new one.

She just lay quietly on the table, thinking about the bits and pieces of these days, and fell asleep after thinking about it.

In the second half of the night, the room gradually became cold, Song Xinshu woke up from freezing, rubbed his hazy eyes and stood up, ready to go to bed to sleep.

I slept all night after such a hard night, and when I woke up the next day, I was sore, but I still managed to get up and went downstairs to arrange things in the store.

Lin Guifen saw that her face was not very good, pulled her to sit down and said, "Xinshu, why is your face so bad, didn't you sleep well last night, hey, why didn't you see Su Qing today?" ”

"Mother, Su Qing has an urgent matter in the capital, so she left in a hurry last night, saying that she would come back in a few days."

Su Qing often left home, and Lin Guifen was used to it, so she didn't ask too much, but asked Song Xinshu to go to the room to rest for a while.

Song Xinshu also felt uncomfortable, so he went upstairs to sleep for a while.

In the afternoon, Song Xinshu woke up, only feeling soft on his body, thinking about going downstairs to do activities, otherwise the more people sleep, the lazier they become.

There were not many customers today, she sat in front of the store with a cup of tea, and there were people pushing carts on the street, and the sound of selling echoed in the market.

Ah Ya is a child, listening to the cries outside, holding a rag out of his mind.

Song Xinshu listened to the rock sugar gourd being sold outside, so he said to Aja, "Aja, if you want to eat, just buy a bunch to eat." ”

Ah Ya smiled embarrassedly and didn't buy it.

Song Xinshu remembered that a few days ago when he made hawthorn cakes, there were still a lot of hawthorns left in the kitchen, so he said to Aja: "Hey, Aja, are there some hawthorns in the kitchen?" ”

Ah Ya nodded and said, "Madam, yes, do you want to make some more hawthorn cakes?" ”

Song Xinshu shook his head and said, "Don't make hawthorn cakes, let's make some rock sugar gourds!" ”

Ah Yao was surprised and said, "Rock sugar gourd, madam, do you still make rock sugar gourd?" ”

Song Xinshu once again refreshed Aja's cognition, she often coveted the rock sugar gourds sold on the street, but she was reluctant to spend money to buy them, but she didn't expect her wife to do it.

Ah Ya couldn't resist the temptation of the rock sugar gourd, and trotted to the kitchen to find the hawthorn.

After listening to Song Xinshu's instructions, Ah Ja brought a basin of water, washed a small pot of hawthorn one by one, and then went with Song Xinshu to remove the pedicle.

After dealing with the hawthorn, Song Xin set up a pot, put a lot of rock candy into it, and kept stirring it with a spoon.

After a while, the rock sugar turned into syrup, and the hot sweetness wafted out, and Ah Yao watched curiously, wanting to see how they turned into rock sugar gourds.

When the syrup became transparent, Song Xinshu came to the courtyard with the pot and asked Ah Ya to prepare a large plate and put it on the side.

Song Xinshu put the hawthorn in a syrup and wrapped it in a circle and put it on this plate to dry.

Now that the weather has cooled down, the rock sugar gourd has been left in the yard for half an hour, and the syrup wrapped in the outside has become hard.

Song Xinshu poked it with his finger and found that the syrup wrapped outside had been hard to a certain extent, so he picked up a string and handed it to Aja and said, "It's already dry, you can taste it." ”

Ah Jay took it expectantly, took a bite and tasted it, nodded desperately and said, "Madam, although it looks a little different from the taste outside, it is also very delicious." ”

Ah Ya couldn't help but take another bite and said to Song Xinshu: "Madam, you can also taste it, it's really delicious." ”

Song Xinshu picked up a bunch, took a bite and tasted it carefully, maybe the hawthorn here is not as delicious as modern times, and the beard is not so sandy because it has not yet evolved completely.

When Song Xinshu wanted to take another bite, he suddenly felt a nauseous feeling in his stomach, put down the rock sugar gourd in his hand and ran to the toilet.

Ah Ya watched Song Xinshu's face suddenly change, and he quickly put down the rock sugar gourd in his hand and ran after her to the toilet.

Song Xinshu leaned against the wall and vomited out all the things in his stomach, and when he vomited until there was nothing left, he kept retching.

Ah Yao held Song Xinshu's arm distressedly, gently patted her back and said, "Madame, did you eat something bad last night, or did you catch a cold, let's ask a doctor to take a look." ”

Song Xinshu vomited so much, if it weren't for Ah Ya's support, I am afraid that he would fall to the ground.

"Then let's find a Lang Zhong to take a look, it's too uncomfortable."

She hadn't been sick since she came here, but this time she couldn't hold it anymore, so she asked Ah Ya to help her back to her room to rest.

At this time, Lin Guifen also knew the news of Song Xinshu's illness, and hurriedly ran to Song Xinshu's room and saw Song Xinshu lying on the bed with the quilt covered.

She walked over and touched Song Xinshu's forehead and said, "I don't have a fever, what's wrong?" ”

"Maybe it's because I have a bad stomach, Ah Ya has already gone to call Lang Zhong, and he will be fine after a few days of rest."

Although it was not a serious illness, Lin Guifen was still very distressed, and kept testing Song Xinshu's forehead, for fear that she would start a fever.

Song Xinshu felt much better at this time, and he didn't feel dizzy just now, but he felt a little tightness in his chest, and he would probably be fine after a nap, and he didn't want to ask Lang Zhong to come over for a run.

She lay on the bed for a while, and Ah Ya came with Lang Zhong, who sat on the stool with a small medicine box, first looked at the color of Song Xinshu's tongue, and then called for her.

Song Xinshu lay bored, just thinking about when he could shrink into the quilt and sleep.

After a long while, Lang Zhong finally withdrew his hand and said to her with a smile: "Congratulations, madam, you are happy!" ”

"Happy?" Song Xinshu didn't react for a while, and looked at Lang Zhong blankly.

Lin Guifen quickly reflected, clapped his hands and said happily: "Really, is it really happy?" ”

Seeing the excited look on her mother's face, Song Xinshu gradually reacted that she was pregnant.

Lang Zhong saw that Song Xinshu was taken care of by his mother's family, so he didn't tell him much about the pregnancy, and after saying goodbye, he settled the outpatient fee and left.

Lin Guifen happily took Song Xinshu's hand and said: "You are pregnant with a child, your father and I are still combined, saying that you and Su Qing have been married for so long, why don't you see joy, now it's okay, in another eight or nine months, you will be able to hold your grandson!" ”

Song Xinshu only felt magical, when Su Qing left, she didn't know that she was pregnant, and now there are two people looking forward to him coming home.

When Su Qing comes back, she must tell him the good news in person and see how he reacts.

Thinking of this, Song Xinshu's face showed a sweet smile.

She was pregnant for the first time, and she didn't know many things, but Lin Guifen had already arranged it, and immediately went to the vegetable market to buy a few old hens, and asked the guys in the kitchen to kill one now, and keep the rest in the yard, waiting for the soup to be used in the future.

Lin Guifen was busy in the kitchen, cutting the washed chicken into small pieces and putting it in a casserole to stew.

In the evening, Lin Guifen came to Song Xinshu's room with a bowl of chicken soup, walked in and said, "Come, Xinshu, drink this bowl of chicken soup, you have to make up for your body!" ”
