It was a sunny day, Ya and her mother chatted while walking, chatting about her sister's store and relatives at home, and before they knew it, the two of them had come to the clinic where they wanted to do B ultrasound.

This is a clinic located in the alleyway, and the doctor rents the whole yard with a couple of doctors, the first floor is the clinic, and the B-ultrasound room is on the second floor. The people who come here to see a doctor are all regular customers or introduced by customers. The B-ultrasound done here is very magical in private, and the accuracy rate is super high, and many outsiders also inquired about finding here. The two doctors are said to have used to be factory doctors in a large factory.

The ultrasound room on the 2nd floor is not easy to find without a guide. Yahuai's daughter came to have a B-ultrasound when she was 6 months old, and she wanted to see how her daughter was developing.

My mother sat on the first floor and waited for Ya to do a B-ultrasound.

Ya went up to the second floor with Dr. Ya, and although she had been here a few years ago, she still couldn't tell which room was the ultrasound room. The B-ultrasound room should be changed, after all, it is forbidden to do B-ultrasound openly. The people who come here to do B-ultrasound are either from here or brought by acquaintances.

The male doctor pushed open the door of a small room, and Ya was greeted by a narrow bed, next to the small bed was a black and white ultrasound, and the dark blue curtain thickly blocked the window.

The male doctor turned on the light and motioned for Ya to take off her shoes and lie down on the cot. After Ya lay down, the doctor asked her to expose her belly, and then smeared a thick layer of lubricating stuff on her stomach, and then he put the ultrasound probe on Ya's stomach and moved it back and forth.

Ya turned her head to look at the B-ultrasound screen, which was in the shape of a baby. I don't know why Ya's heart beat slightly, and she felt a little breathless. She looked at the doctor with a solemn face, and felt a little apprehensive in her heart, although she had already taken the pulse and knew that it was her daughter.

The male doctor looked at B-ultrasound solemnly for a long time and said, "It's a boy, and it can be determined that more than 90% of them are boys." ”

Ya suddenly felt a sense of confusion, her mind was blank at that moment, and after a long time, she said in a trembling voice: "No, doctor, are you mistaken?" ”

"Can't be wrong, more than 90% of the time it's definitely a boy."

Ya suddenly felt like crying, "How is that possible?" When I was more than two months old, I had a pulse, and the doctor said it was a girl, and the doctor was very accurate. ”

"Then you'll see what it is when you're born." The doctor handed Ya a stack of toilet paper and motioned for her to get up and go.

The doctor went out first, and Ya got up and got out of bed in a daze, and the sudden good news seemed to confuse her, and she stumbled downstairs as if she had been greatly stimulated.

When she got to the first floor, Ya looked at her mother's expectant face and said, "Mom, the doctor said it was a boy, but I still don't believe it's true." ”

The old mother was stunned for a quarter of an hour, her fair and ruddy cheeks suddenly became more rosy, and Ya clearly saw the starlight of joy in her eyes.

"It's good to be a boy, it's good to be a boy." There was joy in my mother's voice that couldn't be hidden.

On the way back, Ya took her mother's arm, and a happy smile overflowed the faces of the mother and daughter. Ya repeated it many times along the way: "I really can't believe it's a son, how can I have a son?" ”

"This is God who has mercy on you and blesses you, go to the church and make a wish as soon as you return, only God can perform such miracles." Mom said.

My mother believed in Christianity, and the Ya sisters followed her to the church to listen to teachings since she was a child, and she was also invisibly affected.

"Go to church tomorrow and make a wish to God!" Mother said.

"Good! Go by all means! Ya echoed excitedly.

When I got home, happiness and joy permeated the whole family. In fact, Ya still has hidden worries, she is always afraid that the doctor's judgment will be wrong, and everything is uncertain until the last moment of delivery. Yazhen was afraid that things would not be fulfilled at the last moment, and the disappointment and loss at that time were the deep blows.

After dinner, Ya returned to her room on the third floor. She found the cross-stitch of "God is with Us" that she had bought and embroidered it stitch by stitch. She was to have the cross-stitch finished before she gave birth to her son as a gift to her heavenly Father.

That night, Ya fell asleep peacefully. In the dream, a fertile grassland, countless snow-white lambs are hidden in the grass, and the Father holds the lamb in his arms, looking kindly at this peaceful and fat land, Ya is also one of these countless lambs.

The warm wind blew in gusts, and Ya's heart was extremely comfortable. Ya woke up and remembered the scene in the dream, and it felt so familiar. Oh, that's clearly the picture in the embroidered cross-stitch.

The next morning, the white clouds move leisurely in the blue sky, the morning sun in the east lights up the clouds in the sky, and the early morning wind refreshes people's hearts, making people suddenly feel full of energy. Ya and her mother walked to the stop sign on the main road and waited for the bus passing by the church. The car drove over quickly, and Ya and her mother got in the car and headed straight for the church.

To get to church, you have to walk through a bustling alley. This alley is all too familiar to Ya, she used to pass through it when she was a child, and her grandmother's family lived here at that time. Ya's home is not far from her grandmother's house, and every holiday, the Ya sisters will come to her grandmother's house to play, and grandma will also prepare delicious rice and steamed noodles to entertain them.

Later, the city planned and demolished the house where my grandmother lived, which was a few years after my grandmother died of illness. The area was developed into a bustling market, and it became the heart of the city.

This church is supposed to have existed before the liberation. The newspaper section of the church has old photographs of the church that was first preached by a foreign missionary and has been passed down to the present day.

In Ya's memory, the church was very simple, with a small courtyard, a row of houses at the door, and a row of houses behind the houses, all of which were brick houses.

The church is like a classroom, with a blackboard on the west-facing wall, and in front of the blackboard is a tall sermon with a number of Bible books. Although people who come to the church buy Bibles, there are still people who forget to bring their books, and these Bible books are for these people. Next to the lecture is a pedal piano, and there are special people playing the piano and teaching and singing hymns.

The church is a large three-room room with long red stools and cushions, and when the people have finished listening, the pastor will say, "Now is the time for prayer, brothers and sisters." So the people put down their mats, knelt on them, closed their eyes and prayed.

Some prayed silently, others prayed aloud, and the voice of the voice, "Amen, my heavenly Father!" O Supreme God of the universe, be with me, and with your brothers and sisters in the Church......" into a solemn hymn. The church's mission also has a time schedule, such as 135 missions, 246 chant learning.

Ya's mother originally believed in Buddhism, because Ya's grandmother believed in Buddhism. Ya's grandmother began to eat fasting and chanting Buddha at the age of 5, which lasted for the rest of her life. My grandmother had to recite a certain amount of sutras every day before going to bed and getting up, but my grandmother was illiterate and relied on memory.

Over the years, Ya's grandmother had to go to the temple in other places every year to worship and worship, and she used the pocket money given to her by her mother and aunt to buy incense, buy frames, and donate to the temple. My grandmother usually walked a little staggeringly, but when she went up the mountain to worship, the aunts said that they couldn't keep up with her grandmother's pace, and my grandmother always said that there was a god to help her.

In real life, most people don't believe in ghosts and gods, saying that those are superstitions. Ya believes that whether superstitious or not, people should still have some faith. You see, those who kill people and divide their bodies to do evil, they must be people who do not believe in ghosts and gods and have no faith, otherwise how dare they poison people who are also human beings? Thinking about the tragic situation of those who were killed, a normal person would feel numb on the scalp, goosebumps all over his body, or even vomit and not be able to eat.

It is precisely because of the strong power of faith that Ya's grandmother has been supported through a bumpy and tortuous life. My grandmother died of illness when she was in her early 40s, and my grandmother worked hard to raise 5 children.

Grandma did not abandon her tenacity and kindness throughout her life. She is ingenious, can embroider, can make clothes, and there are often people in the village who ask her to make clothes and shoes, and she never refuses. During the day, he was busy at home and in the field, and at night he stayed up late to make clothes for this family and shoes for that family. Although my grandmother lost my grandfather as a pillar early, she was still respected by the whole village.

Why did Ya's mother later convert to Christianity? Probably because of the long-term indoctrination of the neighbor Grandma Zhou. Grandma Zhou was also a person who lost her husband early, and she brought up several children to become Christians, and since then she has often come to church with Bible books at night and on Sundays.

She doesn't know a single word, and she can't talk well. After a few years of faithfulness, she was able to know all the words of the Bible and speak the Bible with the same amount as she had before she had not been a Christian believer.

Grandma Zhou likes to talk to Ya's mother, and she always tells Ya's mother about the miracles she showed after believing in religion.

For example, there was a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the village who were originally very incompatible, and they usually did not give in to each other, but later they both believed in Christianity, and the two became unprecedentedly harmonious, respecting and loving each other. The daughter-in-law also played the piano and often taught people to sing hymns in church.

For example, there was a pastor in the church who was 29 years old when he was diagnosed with lung cancer. From then on, his lung cancer was cured, which made him more convinced of Christianity, and later he became a pastor and a backbone of the church.

After years of development, the row of houses in front of the church has been demolished and replaced by a two-story church, which is completely modeled after the scale of Western churches.

Pastors are no longer the teacher-like model of teaching students, and churches have large screens on which the Bibles are displayed. The chairs on which people sit are also new chairs for the church, and people no longer kneel on the ground when praying, and the seats have special settings for kneeling. Instead of being accompanied by a pedal piano, people sing hymns with a shiny piano and a special choir. The choir members walked up to the podium dressed in uniform white clothes and sang to the melodious sound of the piano, which broke through the sky and fascinated the clouds.

The row of houses in the church's backyard was not demolished, but repaired. A tall red cross stands prominently on the wall behind the pulpit, and when the cathedral is full, people come to the chapel.

Ya and her mother rarely go to the cathedral, they still habitually come to the chapel, which makes them feel familiar and warm. Two floors were also built on the opposite side of the chapel, with the first floor being the toilets, pantry, prayer room, and children's classroom. Upstairs, there are elementary school transmission classrooms, junior high school transmission classrooms, and high school transmission classrooms.

These are churches for the children of the faithful and are generally open on Sundays. These children learn the Bible from an early age and are taught by a special teacher.
