Chapter 292: Telegram from the Lan Family
The things sent by the Huo family were similar to those sent by the Ruan family. The cloth should have been replaced by someone else, but after the cloth was opened, a ginseng fell out. The old lady picked it up and put it in Ruanruan's arms. She immediately ran outside the yard and looked around. After seeing that there was no one, she closed the gate and ran to Ruanruan.
"Your grandfather is really generous. How could he just wrap such good ginseng in cloth and send it to me without worrying about it getting lost on the way?"
The old lady complained, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
I looked at the ginseng again and again, and smelled it again and again.
"That's good. With this human body, you'll have a guarantee when you give birth to a child."
During this period, no one said anything, but just took care of Ruanruan silently. However, when Ruanruan couldn't see, they were all very worried. Pregnant with a child and giving birth are said to be like walking through the gates of hell, not to mention that Ruanruan was pregnant with twins.
After hearing what grandma said, Ruanruan realized that grandma and the others were worried. She had never noticed it before.
Speaking of this, she really wasn't worried at all. She didn't know why, but she didn't have the anxiety or tension that others talked about. Now looking at her grandmother, could it be that all these things were transferred to her grandmother?
"Grandma, don't worry, I will be fine. I promise you that the baby and I will be safe." Besides, she still has the system. The system has told her before that when she is in danger, the Lord God will protect her. If she really encounters any problems during childbirth, she thinks that the Lord God will not stand by and watch her die, right?
What Ruanruan didn't expect was that she really encountered danger when giving birth, and the Lord God really came to save her.
"Okay, if you say safe, then it will definitely be safe. I will put this body away for now and use it when needed."
They all hoped that Ruanruan and the child would be safe, but what if? They didn't dare to gamble, so when the time came, this ginseng, which was Ruanruan's life-saving medicine, had to be kept safe.
Looking at her grandmother's back as she walked into the house, Ruanruan couldn't tell her grandmother directly, but the ginseng must have been found by her brothers with great difficulty, so she accepted it as a token of their kindness.
Grandma put the ginseng away and started to pick up the things on the floor again. Most of them were food, which she took to the kitchen. Ruanruan couldn't help grandma, so she could only start reading the letters from home.
Most of the letters were asking about Ruanruan's health, the children's well-being, and whether she had any discomfort. The only difference was that Li Huan and Qian Ling, the two pregnant women, discussed with Ruanruan the growth process of the children in their bellies in the letters, and said that it would be so lively when the children were born and they could get together.
Seeing this, Ruanruan thought about the scene in her mind. When she thought of the children's screams, laughter, and crying surrounding her ears, the scene was too shocking. Her head hurt. She really couldn't bear to think about it.
There was another letter, which was written by Ruan Shaohong to Huo Haocheng. He wanted to exchange experiences of raising children with Huo Haocheng. However, when he wrote the letter, he probably didn't expect Huo Haocheng to go out on a mission. After thinking about it, Ruan Ruan put the letter back. She thought that she would show it to Huo Haocheng when he came back. She also wanted to see what his experience was in raising children.
After dinner, Wang Qun and her grandmother sat under the eaves to sort out the vegetables that she had harvested from the fields. While they were sorting, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law praised Ruanruan for her ability to grow vegetables.
This made Ruanruan, who was sitting in a rocking chair and writing a letter with a board as a cushion, blush. She planted these vegetables casually. After planting the seeds in the ground, she would water them from time to time after dinner. Of course, most of the time, it was Huo Haocheng who watered the plants before morning training. After finding out she was pregnant, she often forgot about the land, let alone the vegetables in the field.
After grandma and the others came, Ruanruan told them more than once that the reason these vegetables grew so well was all because of Huo Haocheng and had nothing to do with her.
However, she was helpless because her grandmother and the others did not listen. Alas! It was great to have a husband who fought for her in the in-laws' house!!!
After finishing the work in hand, it was late. Without Huo Haocheng, Ruanruan's mother helped to wipe her feet after soaking her feet. She also slept with her. However, after Ruanruan woke up in the middle of the night, the mother and daughter stood in the yard for a while. Ruanruan leaned on Wang Qun. She could clearly feel her hard work. There was no other way. Ruanruan weighed 150 kilograms now. Even if she was a good hand at farm work, there was still a difference in strength.
Finally, Ruanruan asked her to help move the rocking chair into her room, and then found a blanket and slept on the rocking chair all night. At the beginning, Wang Qun was still very worried that she would catch a cold. After she fell asleep, he woke up several times, touched her forehead, and felt relieved when he saw that her temperature was normal.
The next day, after breakfast, accompanied by her grandmother and mother, Ruanruan took the letters to the duty room of the family compound and asked Xiao Li on duty to help deliver the letters to the postman when he came. In order to thank them for their help in moving things yesterday, Ruanruan and her friends brought some dried fruits made by her grandmother when they went there today, so that they could satisfy their cravings while they rested.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Huo Haocheng had been away for a week. During this week, whenever Ruanruan missed him, she would contact the system. First, she would learn about Huo Haocheng's affairs from the system. If he was not busy, they would chat to ease their homesickness. When he was busy, she would learn about their dynamics from the system and would not disturb him.
In mid-August, Commander Gu came to Ruanruan's house and told her that the musical instrument they had asked him to help them find was now in sight. However, the other party wanted to talk to Ruanruan before they would donate the instrument to her free of charge.
After hearing the news, Ruanruan also expressed that she could understand it. The other party didn't even have to donate it for free, she could also pay for it.
However, Ruanruan still followed Commander Gu to his office and made a phone call.
After the call was connected, she heard the voice was a middle-aged man. Ruanruan was very sure that she had never heard this voice before and it was not someone she knew.
"Hello, I'm Ruan Ruan. Are you looking for me?" Ruan Ruan asked uncertainly.
"Comrade Ruan Ruan, hello, my last name is Lan. According to seniority, you should call me cousin." Hearing the voice coming from the other end of the phone, Ruan Ruan subconsciously looked at her uncle sitting opposite her.
Commander Gu just nodded at her.
After Ruan Ruan understood, she called out to the person on the other end of the phone, "Uncle, hello." She didn't know what to say to him. After saying hello, there was no follow-up. She couldn't just ask, "What do you want to talk to me about?" This was fine for outsiders, but it was not so good for this uncle she had never met.
"You are wondering why I want to talk to you, right?" The other party also knew that his action this time was quite presumptuous.
“Ah, ah…” Ruan Ruan didn’t know how to respond to this and could only stammer and get away with it.
"I don't know. Do you still remember the children who lost too much blood and were saved by your lover a few months ago?"
"This... could it be...?" Hearing him say this, Ruan Ruan also thought that this incident happened because of Ruan Ruan.
"It's just as you thought. My grandson was among them. He was the child brought back by your lover. If it weren't for Huo Haocheng, he might not be here now." When he thought of his young grandson, who was kidnapped by human traffickers and brought to Yuncheng because of his mother's negligence.
As soon as the child went missing, the whole family searched the commune several times and reported to the police. However, they never expected that the child was taken out of Sichuan Province as soon as he was caught. If Lan Chaolin had not seen the child at a charity organization a few days ago, they would never have thought that the child they had been looking for in Sichuan Province for several months had already arrived in Yuncheng.
The reason was that after Huo Haocheng rescued the person, he sent him to the hospital. After contacting the police, he returned to the army. Later, he heard that the children’s parents came to take them back on the day they were found, so Huo Haocheng didn’t pay any attention to it. However, the child who had lost too much blood and fell into a coma did not wake up until the next day. After waking up, the child didn’t speak. The police had not been able to contact his family, so they came to investigate and found out that he had been abducted.
There was no other way. Due to the lack of information, they couldn't get anything out of the child, so they could only contact the charity organization and send the child to them. Uncle Kun and Uncle De liked the child very much after seeing him, so they kept him with them, thinking that if no one came to look for him, they would adopt the child.
However, he did not expect that when school was about to start and Lan Chaolin went to the charity organization to collect a list of children who would come to school in September, he saw his little nephew playing with Wan Niang's children in the organization.
Afterwards, he learned the whole situation from Uncle Kun and called home. The Lan family was relieved to know that the child had been found and was living well. They asked Lan Chaolin to thank Uncle Kun and his family and said that they would come to pick up the child after they had dealt with the affairs at home.
