Forced to go to the countryside, the arrogant young lady got married and became a military wife

Chapter 182 Mother-in-law arrives

Shi Qingqian sent Xiaodouzi to school early in the morning.

I had just returned home and before I had time to sit down and drink a sip of water, Wang Jianguo ran over in a hurry.

"Sister-in-law, hurry up and go to the guard room to answer the phone. Someone is looking for you."

Shi Qingqian was slightly stunned. "Who's calling?"

"It seems to be my aunt calling."

Hearing Zhang Lanxiang's call, Shi Qingqian quickened her pace and followed Wang Jianguo to the guard room.

Arriving at the guard room, Shi Qingqian picked up the phone: "Hello, Mom?"

"Qingqian, it's me," Zhang Lanxiang's voice was full of anxiety and concern.

A warm smile appeared on Shi Qingqian's face. "Mom, it really is you. Are you and Dad okay?"

Zhang Lanxiang felt relieved when she heard Shi Qingqian's voice. "Okay, we're all fine. I was just worried about you. You haven't written in so long, it's been so long, it's been so frustrating."

"Huaian went on a mission some time ago, and I went with him. I just came back the day before yesterday."

"So that's how it is. Then you didn't encounter any danger, did you?" Zhang Lanxiang asked worriedly.

Shi Qingqian quickly responded: "Mom, don't worry, we are all fine. Although this mission had some twists and turns, fortunately, everything is safe and sound."

Then, Shi Qingqian hesitated for a moment, but still told Zhang Lanxiang the news of her pregnancy.

"Mom, I have good news to tell you, I'm pregnant."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then Zhang Lanxiang reacted and almost jumped up with joy.

"Really? Are you really pregnant? How many months have you been? How is your health now? Do you have morning sickness? Is the vomiting severe?"

Shi Qingqian listened to Zhang Lanxiang's series of questions, her heart filled with warmth.

"Mom, I just found out a while ago. It's still early in the month. I'm feeling fine right now. I just feel a little nauseous occasionally, but it's nothing serious."

Zhang Lanxiang said hurriedly, "You have to take good care of it. Tell Huai'an what you want to eat and ask him to make it for you. Don't overwork yourself. You have to be careful in the first few months."

Shi Qingqian responded obediently: "I know, mother, don't worry too much."

Zhang Lanxiang thought about it but still felt uneasy, thinking that the young couple had no experience, and the third son definitely didn't have much time to take care of his wife. Once he was on a mission, he would be away for several months, so she had to stay by her daughter-in-law's side.

But thinking that Shi Qingqian had just become pregnant, she definitely couldn't travel long distances.

After thinking it over, Zhang Lanxiang had an idea in mind.

"Qing Qian, wait for the third brother to come back and tell him to buy me a train ticket. This is your first time pregnant, and the third brother is not good at taking care of people. I still have to go to the army to take care of you before I can feel at ease."

"Mom, don't bother me. I can take care of myself, and..."

Before she could finish her words, Zhang Lanxiang made the final decision: "This matter is settled. I'll go back and pack my things right away."

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly.

Shi Qingqian held the hung up phone and smiled helplessly.

In the evening, Xu Huaian returned home.

Shi Qingqian told him that Zhang Lanxiang was coming.

"Mom is going to join the army?"

Xu Huaian was a little surprised, but when he thought about it carefully, this vigorous and decisive style of action was indeed his mother's.

"Mom is worried about you too. Now that she has made her decision, let's prepare to welcome her. I'll call Zhiyong later and ask him to buy a ticket to take you home."

……

Xiangyang Village.

Xiangyang Village.

As soon as Zhang Lanxiang returned home, she rushed into the house and started packing without even having time to drink a sip of water.

As she rummaged through the boxes and drawers, she kept muttering, "We can't be careless. We have to take everything we need."

Second sister-in-law Zhang Youdi heard the noise and hurried over, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Without even looking up, Zhang Lanxiang said cheerfully, "Qingqian is pregnant. I have to go to the army to take care of her. Look, I'm packing my things."

Zhang Youdi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said hurriedly, "My third sister-in-law is pregnant! This is a great joy. Mom, let me help you."

As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and joined the cleaning team.

The two first took out the newly made quilt from home. Zhang Lanxiang patted the quilt with a look of care, "This quilt is warm. Qingqian can't let it get cold while she's pregnant."

Zhang Youdi carefully placed a basket of eggs aside and said, "We must take these eggs with us to nourish Qingqian."

"That won't work. If something falls on the ground during the journey, you won't be able to pick it up."

Zhang Youdi also gathered out some red dates and walnuts he had saved at home, "What about these?"

"That's fine, take it with you," Zhang Lanxiang nodded, then took out the pickled vegetables she made from the cabinet, "Huaian likes this, take it with you."

The two of them were very busy and wanted to bring everything they had at home to them.

When Xu's father, Xu Lao Da, and Xu Lao Er came back from work, they saw that their house looked like it had been robbed.

The father and his two children stood at the door, their eyes wide open, their faces filled with disbelief. "What's going on? Why is the house in such a mess?"

"Mom, what are you doing? What happened to your family?"

At this time, Zhang Lanxiang and Zhang Youdi were busy and sweating profusely.

Hearing the voices, Zhang Lanxiang raised her head, her face brimming with joy, and said loudly, "You're finally back. Qingqian is pregnant. I'm going to the army to take care of her. I'm packing my things now."

When Mr. Xu heard this, a smile of surprise immediately appeared on his face: "Really? That's great!"

The eldest and second sons both have children, so the only two worries for the old couple are the third and fourth daughters.

Now the third son’s wife is also pregnant, and another big stone has been lifted off his shoulders.

Boss Xu walked forward, looked at the things scattered on the floor, and smiled helplessly: "Mom, you are exaggerating. This is not just packing up, it's almost like emptying the house."

Xu Lao Er also echoed, scratching his head: "That's right, Mom, this is too much."

Zhang Lanxiang glared at them, holding the things in her hands and gesturing as she said, "What do you mean by more? Qingqian is pregnant, so we have to prepare more. What do you two mean? The third brother has contributed so much to our family. If you are even fussy about such a small thing, I will show you how I will deal with you."

Seeing that she misunderstood, the two brothers waved their hands.

"Mom, the third brother is our biological brother. It's just a small thing, how could we be reluctant to give it away?"

"That's right, we're worried about your attitude towards the things and that you won't be able to take them away."

Boss Xu and Boss Xu hurriedly explained.

Zhang Lanxiang was finally satisfied: "That's pretty good."

Father Xu was smoking a pipe nearby, the wrinkles on his face smoothed out. He squinted his eyes and smiled as he said, "Old woman, what the boss said makes sense. You can't take so much by yourself. How about I go with you?"

Zhang Lanxiang refused without hesitation: "I have a lot of things to do at home. I can handle it alone. You will only cause more trouble if you go."
