six in the morning.
He casually dragged over a pillow book, with his head on the crook of his arms, lying beside her and flipping through it. The bedside lamp is set in two old-fashioned lemon-colored glass. When the light shines, it is a pattern on the glass, like a rose... This kind of light, if you look at it too much, it will give you a headache, Lu Yanchen's heart will move and wrinkle He frowned to look at the light source, thinking about changing the light for her next time he came back.
"I just dreamed that you were gone," Gui Xiao rubbed the back of his hand without opening his eyes. One finger, one finger, crossed and held, "I was startled and woke up."
"Let's go now." He closed the book.
"Then touch your belly first." She pulled his hand into the light air-conditioned quilt, and specially lifted the pajamas to let him touch her belly. The rough, warm palm skin slowly touched her belly. Swipe up.
"Wait seven or eight months before you touch it. At that time, you won't be able to touch the belly button, it will bulge out." She whispered.
He took his hand away and pulled the pajamas down for her to cover it: "Go to sleep."
The lights turned off.
"Lu Chen..." Gui Xiao put his arms around his neck, "I know you can't tell the specifics, tell me, is it dangerous this time? Tell the truth?" She cooperated more with his job attributes. This was the first time she blatantly asked him. .
Lu Yanchen laughed softly in the dark: "Don't scare yourself all day long, it's not a TV series. It's fine."
That night, Lu Yanchen arrived at the factory, and at two o'clock in the middle of the night, the person who was transferred from Erenhot also arrived.
Qin Mingyu was the first to jump out of the car. Seeing the leaders and Lu Yanchen who were waiting for him, he strode over, gave a military salute, and reported the situation first.
When everyone came down, seeing Lu Yanchen's face, his eyes lit up without exaggeration.
When the report is over, the report is over. The leaders voluntarily made room for these old comrades in arms and disbanded. Qin Mingyu was the first to slam Lu Yanchen's chest with his elbow: "Okay, when it comes to courting death, the first thing to think of is brothers."
Lu Yanchen didn't talk nonsense, he put his arms around Qin Mingyu's neck and started to introduce the situation here. In the middle of the night, Qin Mingyu and the four people who came to support them picked up their luggage and walked to the factory dormitory, listening while walking.
Midsummer into autumn.
Gui Xiao sent a stack of photocopied color photos.
Four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound, you can see the child's face and even the expression on the image, Gui Xiao is still annotating next to him: "This one, he was picking his nose when I took it..."
"Don't think he is ugly. The doctor said that he has good facial features and looks very good, but he refuses to tell me about the sex."
Yawning, tongue sticking out, and various pictures of finger-eating.
I read more than a dozen pictures and watched it over and over for several nights. Qin Mingyu, who lived with me, couldn't bear it anymore: "I'm also a father, why don't you have such enthusiasm? It seems that it is more fun when a child is born. Before, I didn't dare to Touching my wife's belly, she moves every so often, like a mutant..."
Lu Yanchen slowly put the filter to his mouth, took a breath, didn't bother to talk, and continued watching.
Counting the time, when Gui Xiao was almost seven months pregnant, Lu Yanchen made a report and wanted to go back and take a look before giving birth, but it was not approved. He could only explain it to Gui Xiao on the phone, and it was estimated that he would have to wait for the next month to see the situation and try again, but Gui Xiao made a decisive decision: "I'll find you, you just need to come out and see me, then your leader should approve. "
Gui Xiao remembered that Lu Yanchen had mentioned that he was in a very remote place.
Even if I just go home and sleep for one night, from the factory to the town first, then to change the train to Kunming, fly back to Beijing and then toss back home, it will take a long time on the road alone, which really delays work. So she planned early in the morning that if he couldn't come back, why would she have to let him see her real big belly before giving birth, it would be a trip to give birth to a baby.
Lu Yanchen was really surprised by her this time, and he taught her seriously on the phone for several days. It was too dangerous to travel far in the third trimester of pregnancy. Gui Xiao often argued, but on the last day, she simply confessed that she was already in Kunming. Instead of taking the train, I directly packed a business car and drove over: "My boss has been flying around for business for eight months, don't worry, I have a colleague to travel with me, you can bring Qin Mingyu and let him come to see him. Dear, beautiful, beautiful."
... Lu Yanchen had already made a phone call on the top of the mountain, but a cloud floated over and there was no signal. This time, it was better, without persuading Gui Xiao to turn off the phone first. He squatted on the rock on the top of the mountain, lit a cigarette in his right hand in the autumn wind, looked at the distant mountain forest, and smoked quietly.
When I was halfway through, I laughed first.
There's really no way, since I was a child, I couldn't do anything about her.
So, Lu Yanchen quickly stomped out the half of the cigarette he had not finished smoking, went down the path, and drove back to the factory.
Qin Mingyu spent the night last night, and just came out of the dormitory, when he saw Lu Yanchen coming from the corridor, he didn't have time to make a sound, he was grabbed by the back of the neck and turned away, and pushed him back into the room: "Find someone to replace him. After you, clean yourself up, go out and come back at night." Qin Mingyu didn't quite understand: "Why are you going? Something happened?"
"It's okay, my wife wants to introduce you to a girlfriend."
Qin Mingyu was completely stunned, and he hesitated for a long time without asking why.
four hours later.
The rented business car was parked on the street in the border town. Gui Xiao opened the car window and glanced around, and a colleague behind him took a big sun hat and covered it: "Be careful of sunburn."
After getting out of the car, they went to the small tea shop that Lu Yanchen had just mentioned on the phone.
This town is quite a famous tourist attraction with many tourists. She held her stomach in one hand and looked everywhere. There are still quite a few tea shops, a few in a row, she and her colleagues are still carefully reading the names one by one, and she is seeing him.
Gui Xiao's eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled: "My husband! Look, that's my husband."
Lu Yanchen put one hand in his trouser pocket, wearing a monotonous camouflage uniform, and still had a cigarette in his other hand. Almost at the same time, he also saw Gui Xiao—
The dark blue one-piece dress wrapped around her body couldn't hide her extra large belly. She pressed her orange sun hat and raised her head to smile at him. Seeing him in this border town where he set foot for the first time, there is a special kind of delusion that he suddenly looks back and glances at a hundred years.
Lu Yanchen threw the smoke out into the basket outside the store, and led Qin Mingyu to meet him.
Gui Xiao's first action was to pull his hand.
The second action is to touch him and stare at him eagerly.
Qin Mingyu didn't dare to look directly at the female colleague next to Gui Xiao. He described it vulgarly as being shocked by Gui Xiao's female colleague. length, light blue jeans, a large backpack cross-body, and sunglasses. There was a small suitcase at her feet, containing some necessities for herself and Gui Xiao. When she saw Lu Yanchen, the female colleague took off her sunglasses, but she looked at the two men more calmly than Qin Mingyu.
Several people entered the tea shop and sat down by the wooden window.
Just as Qin Mingyu was about to pull out the chair, he heard Gui Xiao say, "Duan Rou, don't sit at the same table with us, time is precious, don't disturb us..." Duan Rou smiled: "I know, I know," she looked at Qin Mingyu calmly, "Let's go to another table, shall we?"
"...Okay, no problem." Qin Mingyu followed slowly.
In a small hall, two pairs of people are far apart, and there are two tables of tourists in the middle.
Gui Xiao also peeked at the other side and thought it was very funny: "My colleague is a very nice person, that is, he has obtained the certificate before, and he divorced for the prenuptial property before drinking. She wanted to sign the prenuptial property agreement, but the man refused. Later She told me that she wanted to find an independent boyfriend, so that she could work with peace of mind, because she has to fly outside for more than 200 days a year, and she also likes men with strong spirits and has her own pursuits, not that The kind that would make trouble with her for the sake of the house, children, housework and so on... I thought, Qin Mingyu is just right. Also, when she was a child, her family lived by the Songhua River, which was hit hard by the flood in 1998. Deep down, I have a crush on people in military uniforms. When I mentioned it to her, she said that she would just come to play with me for a few days, and see you by the way. What if you close your eyes? You can be friends even if you don’t like it.”
Lu Yanchen also glanced at the table, Qin Mingyu was sitting across from him with his back straight, his hands on his knees, as if he was listening to the leader. It is intuitively estimated that Qin Mingyu has a crush on others.
"Don't look at them, look at me, look at your wife," Gui Xiao said softly, placing his left hand on his belly, "Touch, he just woke up."
Suddenly, he felt something moving against his belly under his palm, like a bone protruding. where is it? Hands, or feet? He was guessing, but his throat was like smoking a cigarette for days and nights, wanting to drink saliva to ease the strange, anticipating, and even rising strange emotions.
"Is it fun?" Gui Xiao was looking forward to it.
Lu Yanchen smiled, what's the problem? Is it fun
He pulled Gui Xiao into his arms, and took the initiative to hug her in the crowd for the first time ever. The peculiar smell of Lu Yanchen's body came to her face. She was a pregnant woman, so she couldn't touch the smell of cigarettes, but just a little aftertaste, she smelled it willfully for a while.
Immerse yourself in it to get rid of Acacia.
"I'll tell you something," Gui Xiao remembered the business after a while, broke away his arm, took out a small book from the small backpack that was slung across the body, and opened it, "This is a small book. I have several bank accounts, passwords, withdrawal passwords and online banking passwords, as well as stocks and funds..." Speaking of which, I was a little worried, wondering if Lu Yanchen would use it.
But nothing should bother her.
By the way, she put all the valuable things at home there, and she told him all about the real estate certificate.
Lu Yanchen was silent for a few seconds: "What do you want to do?"
"Listen carefully," Gui Xiao said as he thought about it, "sometimes giving birth to a child can be life-threatening, such as amniotic fluid embolism, and it is difficult to rescue. In case, you know where these things are in our house, do you usually Don't look at me like that when you're not at home. Don't look at me like that... In case, if you don't know it's very troublesome, don't look at me like that... I still have a card with one million saved for my mother, and that's for She is old, you know it, don't mention it to her."
…
Lu Yanchen never imagined that there would be such a time in his life that Gui Xiao wanted to explain this to him. It's like a wife who has been with her for many years, at a dangerous juncture, she can't worry about what the other party and her family say.
She was worrying for nothing, but it was this unfounded worry that made him feel the heavy love.
He fixed his eyes on her: "do you regret it?"
Gui Xiao was stunned and didn't understand. Looking at his eyes again, he understood.
It's because she doesn't regret getting back together after asking her.
"My child is about to be born, so you asked..." She smiled, seeing Lu Yanchen's serious look, and reflecting that she had just scared him. How to do it? After thinking about it, she pressed her chin on his shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "The most regret is that I didn't put you on the bed before you became a soldier. I really regret it for not falling asleep for many days. ."
Lu Yanchen scratched the bridge of her nose casually: "How old were you then? Dare?"
She didn't admit defeat: "Dare... I dare you if you dare."
Lu Yanchen shook his head, picked up the small cup filled with tea, took a sip, and moistened his throat.
Don't say dare, I didn't even think about doing it.
What was his childhood experience? What is the growth environment? The people around them are not very old, but they are all experienced in this matter. Before meeting Gui Xiao, he had seen a lot, and he never thought carefully about how he would have a girlfriend in the future, but after being with Gui Xiao, he was cautious and cautious. The two never kissed during the summer vacation together. Don't even think about going to bed.
…
Gui Xiao laughed suddenly, and took his hand in surprise: "He moved again, he moved a lot today, he must know that he has seen his father."
Before Lu Yanchen could put his hand up, a small raised footprint appeared on his belly... Gui Xiao's eyes widened, he covered his mouth uncontrollably, and couldn't stop laughing: "Oh my God, Lu Chen! Look, look... "
