Wang Ying is pregnant, which is also a happy event. It is like a stone falling into a pond, causing a wave of smog to the days full of haze.

Shi Dayong was happy and was full of energy when working. He thought to himself that I had two girls, and this time he said that they should have changed. They all said that they were sour and spicy. He carefully observed Wang Ying's diet changes and confirmed that Wang Ying had more sour foods than spicy foods. He was more at ease. This time he must be a son and didn't run away. Every time he came back from the station, he looked at Wang Ying's growing belly and asked with a smile: "Is my son obedient?"

Wang Ying also felt that this time she was pregnant was different from when she was the first two girls. She was very coquettish when she was pregnant and vomited at any time. This third child was different. She ate and drank whatever she ate and drank, as long as the taste was not too volatile.

Yang Wenhui reminded her that for the sake of this little person in her belly, she should be more open-minded. Wang Ying tried hard to adjust her mental state, and temporarily suppressed her longing for Shi Ke and treated this little person in her belly wholeheartedly.

Shi Dayong has always felt panic these days, and always felt that something was going to happen. He was worried that Coco would be lost at home and the whole family would be sad. This hurdle was not so easy to pass. Yingzi is pregnant now, but don’t have anything to do. He doesn’t think about it when he is free. He is afraid that Yingzi will be like this and Yingzi will be like that. After finally changing shifts, he can’t wait to pack his luggage and rush home.

He drove the car very fast all the way, almost to the unit, and he couldn't even wait to park the car, so he drove the car directly to the family yard, parked the car on the side of the road, and ran home to take a look.

On a sunny day, the sun was the brightest in the morning. Wang Ying sat under the eaves and was making small clothes for babies. When she heard the door ringing, she raised her head and saw Shi Dayong looking at her worriedly: "Dayong, you are back, why did you go back so early today?" She hurriedly put the clothes in her hand into the sewing basket, and got up to meet her.

"Don't move, don't move." Shi Dayong took a few quick steps and looked at Wang Ying's face: "Yingzi, are you okay these two days?"

Wang Ying was puzzled by her and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you? OK, what can I do?"

"It's fine, it's fine." Shi Dayong was relieved, but why did the ominousness in his heart always linger?

"Have you eaten? I'll cook for you now." Wang Ying sat for a long time, and her waist was a little sore. She held her waist with her right hand and slowly stood up.

Shi Dayong hurriedly stepped forward and held Wang Ying's arm: "Slow down, I don't have to cook it alone. We'll eat together later. Oh, where's An?"

"Look at you to be careful." Shi Dayong was nervous, Wang Ying felt warm in her heart. She smiled happily: "I'm still young this month and haven't even shown my pregnancy yet. You don't have to be so nervous. You'll sleep peacefully, and it's time to wake up now."

Shi Dayong tilted his head and looked into the room. An An's fat little body was lying on the bed and was sleeping soundly. He lowered his voice and said, "Let her sleep. I'll park my car first and come back later. What's missing at home? I'll buy it together."

"There is nothing at home. If you have what you want to eat, buy some. It's not too late, so I'll start cooking now."

Shi Dayong drove the car into the unit compound. When he passed by the supply and marketing cooperative, he walked in and walked around. Today, he was just thinking about rushing home, but he didn't buy anything on the way. Wang Ying was pregnant and had enough nutrition to provide. He wanted to see what delicious food to buy for Wang Ying and An'an.

The supply and marketing cooperative is not a vegetable market, and there is not enough things to sell. After picking them up, he bought three kilograms of eggs and two kilograms of cake. He walked home with the things. When he got home, Wang Ying, who was quick-handed and skilled, had already washed the vegetables.

Hearing the door ringing, Wang Ying glanced at him and asked, "What have you bought again?"

Shi Dayong raised his hand forward: "Buy some eggs and cakes, and the cakes are waiting for you to eat as snacks when you are hungry."

"You put the things on the table and bring three eggs first. I'll make you a scrambled egg with chili."

When An An heard his father's words, he got up with his little butt in a daze, sat on the bed, rubbed his eyes and screamed: "Dad." Then he opened his two fat hands: "Dad hugs."

"Oh, my daughter is awake." Shi Dayong put down the thing and turned around to hug An An.

Wang Ying hurriedly stopped her: "Don't hug her first! Wash your hands and change your clothes first, and tell you how many times you have said it to you. Seeing that you are dirty, you don't know how to pay attention to hygiene at all."

Shi Dayong smiled and said, "I know, I'll go wash now." After that, he bent down and kissed An An's fat little face: "Look at your mother's fake clean, be good, dad will come to hug you later."

"Yeah." An An nodded obediently and sat on the bed honestly waiting for his father to hug him.

Shi Dayong cleaned up and stopped doing it. He held An An in one hand, grabbed three eggs with the other, and handed them to Wang Ying: "What delicious food is it."

Wang Ying kept stirring the soup in the pot and said, "Amaranth soup, don't you like drinking this? Yesterday, when I took An An for a walk, I saw a piece of it growing by the canal, which was quite tender, so I picked up a large basket and ate it a few meals first. If I couldn't eat it, I kept it dry and made a big bun when I had few vegetables in winter."

Shi Dayong felt a little distressed: "I said, Yingzi, don't your family still have money? If you are pregnant, eat less of these wild vegetables. If you want to eat, go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy whatever you want. I can't afford it."

"Yes, I know you can offer you." Wang Ying curled his lips unremittingly: "You can offer you not only me, but you can afford the whole family behind you. I can't save you a little. What if you can't afford the whole family?"

"Look at you, I'm talking about this again." An An in Shi Dayong's arms: "Good daughter, are you talking about your mother unreasonable?"

"Unreasonable." An An pouted her little mouth and repeated her father's words.

"Okay, you two are in the same mind, and I am an outsider unreasonable." Wang Ying took the soup pot aside and said, "Hold An An away, I want to stir-fry the peppers and don't choke her."

After dinner, Wang Ying poured a cup of tea and put it to Shi Dayong: "Dayong, how many days can you stay at home this time?"

Shi Dayong took a sip of water and said, "I'm going to stay for two more days. The work there is almost over. When my family came, I agreed to the successor that he would have two more days and I'll come back again when I look back."

Wang Ying disagreed a little: "Oh, I said, there is nothing to do at home. You might as well wait until I'm born before changing shifts with others. At that time, you can stay at home for a few more days, otherwise I'm afraid of being alone at home."

Shi Dayong said worriedly: "It's okay, I'll find a way when the time comes. Besides, my mother has to come to serve the confinement period when you have a child. I won't let you be alone at home. The main reason is that I always feel something is wrong these days. I always feel like something is going to happen. I'm not at ease with you and your child at home."

Wang Ying held An An and sat on the edge of the bed, holding An An's fat hand and teased An An: "I am so adult, not a child, so what's wrong with me?"

"Oh." Shi Dayong sighed, got up and paced, and finally sat side by side with Wang Ying, holding Wang Ying's shoulder with his right hand, and embraced her in his arms: "You and the children are my lifeblood. If you are not by my side, I will feel uneasy."

"You're just sweet-mouthed." Wang Ying felt soft-hearted. Listening to the powerful and powerful beating sound in Shi Dayong's chest and breathing the smell of smoke and diesel on Shi Dayong's body, he felt so happy at this moment.

The next morning, the sun had just poked its head out, and Chaohui shone warmly into the house through the curtains. The early rooster stretched out his neck and was clamoring. The dog was awakened, and the irritable "woof" barked and vented his dissatisfaction.

Shi Dayong woke up with the crowing of chickens and dogs. He moved and his eyes moved. Wang Ying was sleeping in his arms. An An raised his legs on Wang Ying's legs, and his two fat hands were raised by his cheeks and fell asleep. This child was always unhonest in sleep, turning over and rolling, and his head faced east when he was about to get up. When he was about to get up, he would definitely turn head face west. Shi Dayong picked up the thin quilt and put it on An An's body with his hands and feet. He then lay down and continued to hug Wang Ying. He closed his eyes and stroked Wang Ying's smooth black hair one after another. He enjoyed this moment. His wife and children were by his side, and it felt like home. Gradually, he became sleepy and fell asleep again.

When I woke up again, it was already dawn, and it was almost nine o'clock when I saw that the scene was going on. Shi Dayong stretched and sat up. Only An An was still asleep on the bed, but Wang Ying had already gotten up. When she heard the sound from the kitchen, she knew that she was preparing breakfast.

Shi Dayong turned over and got out of bed, pulled his shoes and walked to the kitchen, leaned his head into the pot, and looked in the pot: "Yingzi, what are you cooking?"

Wang Ying picked up two eggs and touched them gently on the edge of the pot, and laid two poached eggs along the edge of the pot. "What can I do in the morning? Just lay some noodles. Go and wash quickly, that's fine."

After Shi Dayong finished washing up, he walked with a towel while wiping. The noodles were already served on the table. Wang Ying was dressing An An, who had just woken up.

"Yo, my daughter is awake." Shi Dayong stood in front of the bed and teased An An: "Daughter, call him dad."

Wang Ying touched Shi Dayong with his right elbow: "The child just woke up. Don't mess with her. Let's go to have a meal first."

"Then I'll eat it first. After I finish eating, I'll see the child." Shi Dayong wiped his face clean, put a towel on the basin rack, sat at the table, picked up a chopstick of noodles, and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

Every day at around nine o'clock, the postman would deliver newspapers and magazines to the unit. Li Weiguo took the newspapers and was about to enter the house. The postman asked, "Comrade, is Shi Dayong here?"

Li Weiguo turned around: "Master Shi, I saw his car. He should be at home at this time."

"Comrade, please tell me where his home is. I have a telegram from him in my hand. I have to send it to him quickly." The postman said in a hurry.

"Telecom, who sent him a telegram? Is there any news from his Coco? Come and see it." Li Weiguo took the telegram and saw the address: Shi Dayong's hometown in County C, Shandong Province. There was no urgent matter in the past year. Who sent the telegram? The telegram has come. Something must have happened. Thinking of this, Li Weiguo hurriedly sent the telegram back to the postman: "Comrade, go quickly. As soon as you enter the family courtyard, the first room on the right side of the first row is Master Shi's house."

After breakfast, Shi Dayong took the simple literacy card made by Wang Ying to teach An An to recognize words, and Wang Ying was washing dishes aside.

"This is big, big, big." Shi Dayong held up the "big" and said: "Big, An An comes to learn from his father."

"Big." An An said casually, but his eyes didn't look at his father. He tilted his little head and followed Wang Ying's figure.

"Tsk." Shi Dayong was dissatisfied and held An An's little face and asked her to look at herself: "Look at dad, what's the good thing about mom? Dad hasn't been home for several days, don't you miss dad."

An An's little face was already fat, and when her father held it, her fat cheeks were crammed, her chubby little mouth was pouting, and a trace of saliva at the corner of her mouth could not be controlled, and she said softly: "I miss my dad."

Shi Dayong was happy, raised his eyebrows slightly, and showed off to Wang Ying proudly: "It's better for my daughter. I miss me if I haven't seen each other for a few days."

"Does your child miss who you want?" Wang Ying gave Shi Dayong a blank look, stood up and put the bowl in the cabinet, thinking that he was so big, why was he still like a child? He could be so happy with just one word!

"Is this Shi Dayong's home? Is Shi Dayong at home?" A strange voice came from the door.

"It's Shi Dayong's family." Wang Ying hurriedly wiped his hands on the apron and was about to open the door. Shi Dayong picked up An An and followed Wang Ying out.

When Wang Ying opened the door, she saw that the person didn't know him, but she knew the clothes she was wearing. The dark green work clothes could be recognized at a glance as a person from the post office.

"I am Shi Dayong. Comrade, do you have something to ask me?" Shi Dayong took a step forward and asked the postman.

"I have a telegram for you." The postman said as he handed the telegram to Shi Dayong.

"Telecom? Who came?" Shi Dayong was a little puzzled and handed An An to Wang Ying. He took the telegram and prepared to tear it apart.

"Comrade, the telegram has been sent, I'll leave first." Seeing that the task was completed, the postman rode his bicycle to say goodbye to Shi Dayong.

"Oh, thank you comrade, go slowly."

After seeing off the postman, Shi Dayong opened the telegram in confusion, and immediately the five big words "Father is critically ill, return quickly" suddenly entered his eyes. Shi Dayong's heart suddenly "shocked", and his hands and feet were frozen and stopped moving.

Dayong's expression was wrong, Wang Ying was worried, hugged An An and leaned in front of Shi Dayong: "Da Yong, who will have the telegram?" She pulled the telegram out of Shi Dayong's hand, and after seeing the words on it clearly, she was shocked in an instant. (To be continued)
