Become a burden in a period novel

Qin Wangshu didn't call Aunt Luo. Aunt Luo was about to get on the bus, and if she told her now, Aunt Luo probably wouldn't be able to have any peace of mind on the way.

She returned to her room, put her things away, took a shower, changed into more comfortable clothes, and went to the phone to call Yang Mingye.

After giving Yang Mingye's unit number and name, Qin Wangshu waited by the phone for him to call back.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the phone rang. Qin Wangshu reached out and answered it, and heard a familiar voice coming from the receiver.

"Wangshu, have you arrived in Guangzhou?" Yang Mingye knew where the call was coming from, so he knew that Qin Wangshu had arrived in Guangzhou and probably settled in.

"Yes, it arrived yesterday, and I went to the hospital this morning."

"Why did you go to the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?" Yang Mingye asked anxiously.

"I didn't feel unwell, but I was a little drowsy in the car, so I went to the hospital for a check-up."

"And what was the result?" Yang Mingye was still not at ease.

"Congratulations, you're going to be a father!" Qin Wangshu's voice was filled with joy.

"Huh? You, you mean..."

"That's right, I'm pregnant, Yang Mingye, you're going to be a father!" Qin Wangshu could imagine Yang Mingye's current state, but she was also very happy.

"This, this... Did you feel unwell on the way? You just mentioned feeling sleepy, was there anything else that bothered you? You must have been feeling unwell, otherwise you wouldn't have gone to the hospital..." Yang Mingye kept rambling on the other end of the phone, all concerned about Qin Wangshu's health.

Qin Wangshu felt a warmth in her heart as she listened to his concern. Yang Mingye kept asking about her health but hardly asked about the baby in her belly, which made her realize that he cared about her a lot.

"I'm not feeling unwell, just a little sleepy. My mother will be here in a couple of days, and she'll definitely take good care of me then."

"I'm sorry I can't be by your side," Yang Mingye said, feeling very guilty.

"Don't blame your mother and me for leaving you alone in Beijing. We can spend the New Year together in the South. We'll go back soon after school starts, and you should have time to come home then."

"There will definitely be time!" Yang Mingye said with certainty.

According to his position, his family members were allowed to accompany him, but Qin Wangshu had his own job and a factory to manage, so he couldn't stay in the family compound indefinitely and therefore did not apply.

Should he apply to have Qin Wangshu recuperate in the family compound after childbirth? It's close to the military hospital, so he can take care of her.

His mother is quite busy. He had mentioned wanting to hire someone to help, but they all said they weren't home often, so now they have to hire someone. I'll ask my sisters-in-law tomorrow to see if they know anyone suitable.

In the family compound, there are also some women whose husbands' and wives' families are not convenient to come over, so they hire people to help at home. If he hadn't heard about it, he wouldn't have thought of hiring anyone.

Those women should know reliable people and find them in advance, so as not to have to search for them at the last minute and not find a suitable one.

"Okay, I got it! Take good care of yourself while you're away in the army."

"Don't worry, I'm not a child. If you have a lot of things to do, just delegate some to others. Don't overwork yourself." He didn't tell Qin Wangshu to stop working. Qin Wangshu's career was developing very well, whether it was her job at the university or her own factory.

He had seen Qin Wangshu's hard work and her struggle to build the business step by step, so how could he let her give in for the sake of her child?

"I will. I brought a lot of manpower with me this time, and Wu Min is here too. There's not much for me to do, so I'll definitely get some rest. Besides, it's warm in the south, and there are plenty of fruits and vegetables, so you don't need to worry about me."

After they chatted for a while longer, Qin Wangshu hung up the phone and went to pay the phone bill; these days, you have to pay to make and receive calls.

"Girl, are you calling your boyfriend?" Only a boyfriend could make a call that long. "Is your boyfriend in the military?"

"Yes, let my husband know I'm safe."

"You're married? I never would have guessed. Are you pregnant?" The woman on the phone lowered her voice.

"Big sister has a good eye, it's just that it's not even three months old yet."

“I know, I know!” the eldest sister said immediately. “Then you need to take good care of yourself. The chef in the kitchen makes some delicious soups. Do you want to order some from him?”

"Then I'd like to trouble you to ask the chef if he's free. If it's convenient, could you make me a soup every day from now on?"

This is a big customer! One soup a day, they really don't mind spending money, and they placed the order without even asking the price.

They get a commission for promoting this to the chef. She brought in such a big deal for the chef, so he definitely won't treat her unfairly.

"Okay, I'll talk to the chef tonight." Their guesthouse serves dinner, and she's busy. She'll go talk to the chef after dinner when he's finished.

"Thank you, ma'am!" Qin Wangshu said goodbye to the woman after speaking. Public phones don't offer much privacy, but she figured she couldn't hide it from Yang Mingye anyway.

His call had to be transferred; I guess all the operators know by now that Yang Mingye is about to become a father.
