Yao Chunhua didn’t doubt a word Gu Jia Ning said.
Whatever Ningning said, she believed it.
"Ningning, after I finish helping your sister-in-law with her confinent, I’ll catch a ride to the Northwest Military Region." Yao Chunhua was still worried about her daughter.
Especially since she had two children in her belly.
Although her in-laws were there, as a mother, she couldn’t be completely at ease without going herself.
"Okay, I understand, Mom."
Yao Chunhua gave nurous detailed instructions before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
On her way back, a smile hung on Yao Chunhua’s face.
"Hey, Sister Chunhua, I heard your eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to a boy?"
"Yes, born this morning, both mother and son are safe."
"That’s great, congratulations."
All along the way, everyone Yao Chunhua encountered was congratulating her.
When she was almost at her doorstep, she saw her neighbor Wu ili.
Seeing her happy and proud expression, Wu ili slamd the door shut with a sullen face.
Yao Chunhua thought of how Wu ili had previously insulted Yang Manman as a hen that couldn’t lay eggs and got angry.
She had even had a fight with Wu ili over it.
In fact, Yao Chunhua’s relationship with Wu ili had been quite good at the start.
Probably because Wu ili wanted to marry her daughter, Gu Baozhu, to her eldest son.
Yao Chunhua never liked to ddle too much in the younger generation’s marriages, nor did she ever force them.
She knew marriage was a lifelong matter.
Choosing the right person was important.
So when her eldest said he wanted to marry Yang Manman, and after eting her and finding her agreeable, she agreed.
Unexpectedly, from that point on, Wu ili’s attitude towards her turned hostile as if Yao Chunhua owed her sothing from past lives.
Initially, Yao Chunhua thought that regardless if they beca in-laws or not, they could at least maintain a good neighborly relationship.
But Wu ili held a grudge against her ever since.
Continuously targeting Yang Manman, which Yao Chunhua could not tolerate.
This led to a fight eventually.
But now, regarding Wu ili’s attitude, Yao Chunhua no longer cared.
Neighbors were irrelevant.
As long as her family was doing well, that was enough.
Even if Wu ili disliked her, there was nothing she could do.
Moreover, now that Manman had given birth to a son, Wu ili must be furious.
Indeed, after closing the door, Wu ili was beside herself with anger.
In her imagination, Yang Manman was supposed to never be able to bear children.
Then, surely Gu Yunting and the Gu Family would regret marrying Yang Manman and rejecting her daughter Baozhu.
But now, Yang Manman had given birth to a boy!
And the Gu Family was doing better and better; their daughter is a newspaper-worthy doctor married into the Beijing Military District.
Their three sons are also workers.
The gap between the Gu Family and people like her was getting wider.
-
Yao Chunhua returned ho, made dinner, served so to the recovering Yang Manman, fed her grandson formula, and watched him fall asleep before coming out.
As soon as she ca out, she heard the villagers finishing work.
Soon after, her husband returned.
Then the three sons working in the city also ca back.
As soon as Gu Yunting returned, he went straight to the room to check on his wife and son.
After the family finished dinner,
Yao Chunhua talked about her conversation with Gu Jia Ning on the phone earlier that day.
She then called her third son into the room and conveyed Gu Jia Ning’s instruction for him to study hard for an eventual exam.
Gu Yunzhou was initially puzzled when he heard this.
After confirming again,
"Mom, did you say that the college entrance exam might be reinstated soon, and I, I might be able to go to college?"
"That’s not saying it, it’s Ningning’s words, do you believe it?"
"Believe it, of course, I believe it."
How could he not believe his sister?
Only the Gu Family knew the wonder of Gu Jia Ning.
So they trusted her words without any doubt.
Especially since, before she married Sheng Zexi, she seed unreliable when involved with Wen Zhqing.
But after marrying and following Sheng Zexi, everything she did was remarkably reliable.
Gu Yunzhou thought that the possibility of the college entrance exam being reinstated must be very high, which was why Ningning reminded him.
He knew Ningning always knew about his desire to continue studying.
Indeed, his little sister understood him best.
"Mom, I understand, I will start studying," said Gu Yunzhou with determination in his eyes.
"Good, good."

At the Northwest Military Region, on the third day after Gu Jia Ning’s elder sister-in-law gave birth, she was working in the Traditional Chinese dicine Departnt when she saw Guoguo rushing to her.
"Aunt Gu..."
Upon seeing this, Gu Jia Ning quickly asked, "Guoguo, why are you here? Did sothing happen?"
"Auntie, mom, mom is going into labor?"
"Is Sister Shu Wan going into labor?" Gu Jia Ning imdiately stood up and asked, "Where’s your mom now?"
"At ho, mom’s in so much pain she can’t stand."
"Okay, I’ll bring people over now. Guoguo, don’t worry, your mom will be fine." Seeing the redness in Guoguo’s eyes, Gu Jia Ning quickly reassured her.
Very soon, Gu Jia Ning inford the obstetrics departnt and arranged for a stretcher, heading towards the family quarters.
Speaking of which, Gu Jia Ning was aware that Zhang Shuwan’s due date was near.
Since it was twins, preterm birth was expected.
Lin Xing had been coming ho early every day after finding out.
Only the day before yesterday, Lin Xing suddenly had to go on a mission.
A mission he had no choice but to take.
Helplessly, Lin Xing entrusted his wife to Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Zexi before hurriedly leaving for the mission.
Today, right after Zhang Shuwan finished her al, her stomach started to hurt.
Seeing her pants were wet, she knew her water had broken, and labor was near.
But the pain was too much.
She was so pained she couldn’t even muster the strength to walk.
She originally planned to walk to the military hospital for delivery once she sensed it was ti, as it was agreed upon before.
And it was very close.
But unexpectedly, the pain was so severe that she couldn’t even stand, let alone walk.
Guoguo was scared too.
Fortunately, Guoguo was quick-witted and reacted swiftly.
Her dad had said that if he wasn’t around, and her mom needed to give birth or was feeling unwell, she should find Aunt Gu and Uncle Sheng next door.
Guoguo knew that Uncle Sheng was training and not ho at the mont.
And Aunt Gu wasn’t ho either; she was at the hospital.
So, Guoguo ran to the hospital imdiately.
Luckily, she’d been to Gu Jia Ning’s office with Zhang Shuwan before, so she rembered it.
Now, Gu Jia Ning was bringing people to the family quarters.
Soon, they arrived at the Lin Family, where they saw Zhang Shuwan on the kang bed, her face contorted in pain.
"Jia Ning, Jia Ning..." Zhang Shuwan’s desperate eyes turned to Gu Jia Ning.
"Sister Shu Wan, don’t be afraid. It’ll be okay. We are going to the hospital now."
...
With the stretcher, Zhang Shuwan was soon taken to the obstetrics departnt.
The delivery process began swiftly.
Although Gu Jia Ning didn’t enter, she closely monitored Zhang Shuwan’s condition through the system’s data.
