Chapter 382: Widow Tian is Pregnant
He Yugang knew that he couldn't always call her "sister-in-law", so he mustered up his courage and asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, what's your name? I can't call you sister-in-law anymore."
When Widow Tian heard what He Yugang said, she raised her head slightly and looked at him with her bright eyes. She glared at him coquettishly, then replied softly: "My name is Tian Nier, you can just call me Nier from now on." Her voice was as gentle and warm as the spring breeze.
When He Yu just heard the name, his heart was beating. He seemed to be attracted by the name and felt that he had a deeper connection with Tian Nier. He almost subconsciously repeated: "Nier!"
When Widow Tian heard He Yugang's call, her face flushed. She lowered her head slightly, as if she was a little embarrassed. But there was a happy smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was very satisfied with this address.
When He Yugang saw the reaction of Widow Tian, he became more certain of his decision. He gently held her hand and said affectionately, "Ni'er, I will take good care of you in the future."
Widow Tian raised her head and looked at He Yugang's determined eyes, her heart filled with emotion and happiness. She nodded and responded softly: "Well, I believe you."
......
Since that time, He Yugang's relationship with the widow Yu Tian has gradually warmed up. He no longer needs Xu Damao to invite him every time, but takes the initiative to set a certain day of the week as the day to go to Lijia Village.
One sunny morning, He Yugang, wearing a clean and neat shirt, rode out of the house on the bicycle borrowed from Xu Damao.
His face was filled with a faint smile, and his eyes revealed anticipation and joy. He knew very well that he would spend this day with Widow Tian.
When he arrived at Lijia Village, He Yugang did not go directly to find Widow Tian. Instead, he collected the dried goods from the village chief, walked around the village, and then took a detour to Widow Tian's house.
When he arrived at the door of Widow Tian's house, he saw her hanging clothes in the yard. Widow Tian was wearing a simple cloth dress, her hair was tied casually behind her head, and her face was filled with a simple and warm smile.
Seeing this, He Yugang involuntarily quickened his pace, "Ni'er, I'm here to see you." He Yugang said with a smile.
When Widow Tian saw He Yugang, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She put down the clothes in her hands and greeted him with a smile: "Hey, Yugang, you are finally here? Come in and sit down!"
The two sat in the yard, drinking tea and chatting. He Yugang laughed heartily from time to time, while Widow Tian listened gently and occasionally interjected a few words.
Xu Damao had been observing all this silently. He knew that his plan had begun to bear fruit, so he wrote to Widow Tian more frequently, asking her to continue to whisper in He Yugang's ear.
However, Widow Tian did not directly state her intentions, but guided He Yugang in a more subtle way.
She would intentionally or unintentionally mention some of the things Xu Damao said during the conversation, but Widow Tian did not go into details.
She knew that it would take more time and effort to get He Yugang to stand completely on her side, so she continued to maintain close contact with He Yugang, touching his heart with her tenderness and thoughtfulness.
Gradually, He Yugang found that his feelings for Widow Tian were getting deeper and deeper. He began to look forward to the weekly gatherings with Lijiacun and every communication with Widow Tian.
Although Li noticed that He Yugang went out quite frequently, when she pointed it out tactfully, He Yugang always explained that he was going out to collect dry goods or to meet up with friends, and she just smiled and nodded, never asking further questions.
However, she did not realize that there was actually an unknown secret hidden behind this.
He Yugang was completely immersed in this secret relationship. Every time he left home, his heart was filled with longing and expectation for Widow Tian.
He began to feel annoyed by Li's inquiries and concerns, and even began to distance himself from her intentionally or unintentionally. Although Li noticed this change, she did not think deeply about it, and just thought that He Yugang was busy with work recently and was in a bad mood.
One day, Widow Tian found herself vomiting and was shocked to realize that she might be pregnant. She realized that this was an important opportunity, so she decided to use it to deepen her relationship with He Yugang and even marry him.
On that day, He Yugang arrived at Lijia Village as scheduled and had lunch with Widow Tian. At the dinner table, Widow Tian deliberately acted uncomfortable, covering her mouth from time to time, as if she was about to vomit.
Seeing this, He Yugang immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand and asked nervously: "Ni'er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Widow Tian nodded gently and said in a weak voice: "Well, it still feels a little uncomfortable. Yugang, can you accompany me to the hospital?" Her eyes revealed a kind of expectation and fragility.
He Yugang felt distressed when he saw this. He knew that he couldn't just take Widow Tian to the hospital, as that would expose their relationship. But he was also worried about Widow Tian's physical condition and didn't want her to face it alone.
He Yugang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He turned and walked to the closet, took out a soft scarf, gently handed it to Widow Tian, and said softly:
"Nier, wrap your head first, we'll go to the hospital now." His eyes were full of concern and nervousness, but he tried to remain calm.
Widow Tian took the scarf and tied it around her head with trembling fingers. She looked at He Yugang, with a hint of gratitude and dependence in her eyes.
The two of them packed up their things simply, and He Yugang rode the bicycle he borrowed from Xu Damao and drove towards Sijiu City with Widow Tian.
As the bicycle sped along the road, He Yugang looked back from time to time to check on Widow Tian, fearing that she was feeling unwell. Widow Tian tightly grasped the corner of He Yugang's clothes, feeling nervous and expectant.
After arriving at the hospital, Widow Tian was afraid to run into the doctor who treated her last time, but fortunately, the doctor was not there. She breathed a sigh of relief and followed He Yugang into another consulting room.
The doctor carefully examined Widow Tian's body, then smiled and said to them, "Your wife has been pregnant for a month. This is a normal pregnancy reaction. Don't worry."
When He Yugang heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, and then a surprised smile appeared on his face. He realized that he was about to become a father, and this unexpected surprise made him feel extremely happy and excited.
He quickly thanked the doctor, and then helped Widow Tian out of the clinic. In the corridor, he couldn't help but stop and hold Widow Tian's hand tightly, with excitement in his eyes.
"Ni'er, we are going to have a baby!" He Yugang said excitedly, "I will be a good father and take good care of you and your child."
He Yugang spoke excitedly for a long time, his eyes flashing with longing and expectation for the future. However, he gradually discovered that Widow Tian did not respond to his enthusiasm as usual.
He turned his head in confusion, his eyes fell on Widow Tian's face, and found that she was looking at him with a complicated look.
"Ni'er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" He Yugang asked with concern, his voice full of worry.
Widow Tian looked at He Yugang deeply, her eyes full of tenderness and worry. She sighed softly and said:
"Yugang, I am happy to follow you like this, but what about the child? I don't want him to be called a wild child when he is born."
When He Yugang heard this, his heart suddenly tightened. He had never thought about this problem, but at this moment, he realized that this was an unavoidable reality.
He couldn't let his child be born with such a stigma, and he couldn't let Widow Tian and the child come to any harm.
He held Widow Tian's hand tightly and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Don't worry, I will give you an explanation." Although his voice was low, it was full of strength and determination.
After saying that, He Yugang took a deep breath, as if he was sorting out his thoughts. He knew that what he had to do was not only to give an explanation to Widow Tian, but also to give the child a bright future.
He looked at the sky outside the window, his heart full of determination and confidence. He knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, he had to work hard for Widow Tian and the children.
When he looked at Widow Tian again, his face had regained its calm and determination. He gently held Widow Tian's hand and said:
"Nier, believe me, I will take care of everything. Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative first, and I'll buy you some nutritional supplements." As he said that, He Yugang supported Widow Tian and walked out of the hospital.
