I relied on my heart to play badly in front of my husband, an officer.

In January 78, Bai Youyou, who was nine months pregnant, had a stomachache after dinner one night before the Chinese New Year.

Originally, she felt a little slight pain before eating, but Bai Youyou, who had no experience in childbirth, did not take it seriously and continued to do what she was doing.

But after dinner, the pain intensified, from once every one or two hours to once every half hour.

There was also a feeling of falling, which made Bai Youyou panic all of a sudden. She knew that she was about to give birth, although she didn't know whether the feeling of a woman giving birth was the same as she was feeling now.

But she knows best how her own body feels; after all, she still has some common sense.

She hurriedly grabbed Sheng Zeyan, who was sitting next to her, and said in a trembling voice, "Hubby, I might be about to give birth. Go tell Mom to get the things we packed and go to the hospital."

When Bai Youyou knew she was having twins, she anticipated the possibility of premature birth, so she started preparing the things the children would need early on.

Just for diapers, she used cloth coupons to buy cotton cloth from the supply and marketing cooperative.

Her action made many military wives laugh at her. After all, who would be willing to use high-quality cotton cloth as diapers for their children?

Most children's diapers are made from discarded clothes of adults.

Because of this, many gossipers reported it to Zhang Ru, hoping that Zhang Ru would take good care of Bai Youyou.

But Zhang Ru wasn't stupid! She didn't know what those people were up to! She just didn't expose them and played along, keeping a distance from them so as not to offend them.

After seeing Sheng Zeyan didn't move, Bai Youyou endured the pain and called him again, "Husband, why are you still sitting there! Hurry up and call mom to get some things and take me to the hospital!"

"Oh, okay." Sheng Zeyan said this, but in fact his eyes were fixed on Bai Youyou's belly.

Seeing Sheng Zeyan didn't react, Bai Youyou was so angry that she twisted his thigh hard on the spot.

"Hubby, what are you thinking about? Why don't you call mom quickly? Why are you still standing there? I'm in so much pain."

The pain in his thigh finally brought Sheng Zeyan back to his senses. Without saying a word, he stood up and rushed to his mother's room.

After hearing the news, Zhang Ru was also anxious. He picked up the package he had prepared long ago and ran out.

On the way, Bai Youyou was in so much pain that she broke out in cold sweats. Sheng Zeyan held her hand tightly and kept comforting her.

Along the way, Sheng Zeyan carefully supported Bai Youyou, while Sheng's mother kept stopping passers-by in front, shouting "Excuse me, mother, mother." After finally arriving at the hospital, the doctors and nurses quickly pushed Bai Youyou into the delivery room.

Sheng Zeyan and his mother waited anxiously outside. Sheng Zeyan paced back and forth, his heart filled with worry, while his mother prayed continuously for the safety of both mother and child.

Sheng Zeyan paced back and forth, looking into the delivery room from time to time, listening to his wife's cry of pain, and felt distressed.

At this time, the military wives who had complained before also came to the hospital, asking questions hypocritically. Sheng's mother was too lazy to pay attention to them, and only hoped that her daughter-in-law would give birth smoothly.

Bai Youyou's screams of pain were heard in the delivery room, and Sheng Zeyan clenched his fists in pain.

Finally, with a loud baby cry, the first baby was born.

Then there was another cry, and the second baby was born.

The nurse came out and announced the good news: "Congratulations, we have twins, a boy and a girl!"

Sheng Zeyan and his mother were overjoyed.

Not long after, Bai Youyou was pushed out of the delivery room. Her face was pale but full of happiness.

Sheng Zeyan rushed forward and held Bai Youyou's hand tightly, his eyes full of love and gratitude.

Sheng Zeyan came forward and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work, my wife. I love you. Thank you for giving birth to my child. Thank you." As Sheng Zeyan spoke, his eyes became moist.

The people around cast envious glances at her. And those military wives who had laughed at Bai Youyou before could only secretly smack their lips in amazement, with nothing more to say.

Sheng Zeyan accompanied Bai Youyou back to the ward, and the family gathered around the bed and looked at the two adorable babies.

Sheng Zeyan gently stroked the child's soft hair and looked at Bai Youyou: "Wife, both children are so well-behaved and cute.

Especially my younger sister, she is the cutest.

"Wife, shouldn't we give the child a nice name?" Zhang Ru was also teasing her brother and nodded repeatedly.

Bai Youyou, who was resting in the hospital bed, watched Sheng Zeyan teasing the children and said, "You pick the names for the children!"

"Okay, I'll take it. What do you think, wife?"

"No, as long as it sounds good."

After thinking for a moment, Sheng Zeyan said, "Wife, do you think these two names are okay? The boy will be named Sheng Yang. I hope he will be as warm and cheerful as the sun.

The girl's name is Sheng Yue, which means joy and well-being. Bai Youyou thought the name was a great one, so she didn't change it.

During my recuperation in the hospital, comrades and neighbors came to visit me every day.

The wives of the soldiers who had complained before also had to bring some eggs to express their congratulations. Bai Youyou did not care about the past and instead entertained them warmly.

On the day of discharge from the hospital, Sheng Zeyan carefully supported Bai Youyou, Sheng's mother held Sheng Yue, and Sheng Zeyan held Sheng Yang in his arms.

After returning home, Bai Youyou's confinement life began.

Sheng Zeyan was busy running around, taking good care of Bai Youyou's confinement meals according to the instructions of the older generation.

Zhang Ruze and Bai Youyou took care of the child together and taught her some parenting tips.

Bai Youyou's body gradually recovered, and she was filled with joy as she watched Sheng Yang and Sheng Yue grow up little by little every day.

That day, Sheng Zeyan came home from get off work and brought back a radio.

This was a rare item at the time.

After getting the things back, Bai Youyou asked about the origin of the radio. This radio was a reward for Sheng Zeyan's excellent work performance.

The family sat together, fiddling with the radio curiously.

Suddenly, melodious music came from inside. Sheng Yue waved her little hands in the cradle, as if dancing to the rhythm, and everyone laughed.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and it was finally time for Bai Youyou to leave her confinement.

After leaving the confinement room, Bai Youyou seemed to be reborn, and she was full of energy.

…………

As time went by, Sheng Yang and Sheng Yue grew up. Sheng Yang was a mischievous child, always playing with the other boys in the compound, and always coming back covered in mud.

Sheng Yue is much more well-behaved and likes to stay at home quietly and listen to the radio.

One day, Sheng Zeyan brought home a picture album with all kinds of novel things in it.

Sheng Yang was very excited. He pointed at the tall buildings in the picture album and asked his father, "Dad, can we live in a house like this in the future?"

Sheng Zeyan smiled, touched his head and said, "As long as you study hard, you will definitely live a better life in the future."

Sheng Yue also came over, his eyes sparkling.

She was very interested in the girls in pretty dresses in the picture album.

Seeing this, Bai Youyou said, "When Yueyue grows up, Mommy will make you a beautiful dress too."

As the tide of reform and opening up surged, Shengzeyan's work became even busier.

But no matter how tired he is, he is filled with strength when he returns home and sees his wife and two children. Sheng Yang and Sheng Yue thrive under the love and care of their parents. This family is filled with laughter and joy, and the future is full of infinite hope.

Of course, these things happened after the children grew up.
