Chapter 1116: Chapter 1115: Qingyun Enlists 5

Feng Qingxue was unconcerned about how Su Junlin treated his two youngest sons, extending her wrist to Guo Xiuying and Wang Sanbao, "Could Sister Sanbao and Sister Xiuying help me take my pulse?" She then asked her sister to bring over her first aid kit.

Guo Xiuying and Wang Sanbao had noticed Feng Qingxue’s belly earlier, and they were puzzled. When she left the army, Feng Qingxue wasn’t pregnant, and since they often worked together, studied together, and taught new medical soldiers, they frequently took each other’s pulses; thus, seeing such a large belly was quite incredible to them.

"Could it be more than one?"

After Xiuying spoke, she took Feng Qingxue’s pulse while Sanbao took a stethoscope from the first aid kit to listen to the fetal heartbeat.

Taking a pulse is hard to determine if it’s twins, but listening to the fetal heartbeat can reveal certain characteristics. For instance, right now, as Wang Sanbao set down the stethoscope, "The heartbeat is very strong; I heard two of them. It’s undoubtedly twins."

Feng Qingxue’s face fell at once.

"What’s with that expression? Aren’t you happy about having twins?" Guo Xiuying tapped her forehead lightly, "Just look at our army, how many who want children haven’t heard a thing, you already have a son and a daughter, and now you’re expecting twins, you don’t know how many people are secretly envious to death!"

"Having twins is really exhausting! And I’m afraid I won’t be able to take care of them by myself when the children are born."

Feng Qingyun immediately said, "Sister, I’m not leaving. I’ll stay to take care of you, to wash your clothes and cook for you. Once the two little nephews are born, I’ll take care of the children for you; you just focus on your work."

As a child, her sister took care of her, and now that she had grown up, she could take care of her sister and the younger nephews.

Feng Qingxue smiled, "I’m still worried about letting you go back home by yourself!"

Such a beautiful young girl, only twelve years old, could hardly hide her beauty even if she tried. What if she encountered a bad person on the way home?

It was then that Guo Xiuying and Wang Sanbao noticed Feng Qingyun. After looking her over for a moment, the latter couldn’t help saying, "Xiaoxue, is this your sister? She really does look like you. After living in our army for a few years and growing up, just wait for the ’every family seeking a bride’ grand scene!"

"You haven’t seen my nephews; each one of them is exceptionally good-looking. I’m almost driven to despair," Feng Qingxue responded to the compliments not with the typical modesty of playing down the assets of one’s children to being worthless, "Before coming back, something happened that really annoyed all of us. I don’t know if there will be any follow-up after I return to the army."

Curious about what had happened, since Guo Xiuying and Wang Sanbao had nothing else to do, they asked, and Feng Qingxue quickly clarified the whole story, unable to help adding, "What do you think, should I be worried?"

Guo Xiuying broke into a chuckle, "If the children are disappointing, that’s worrisome. If the children are too outstanding and become a hot commodity, that’s also enough to kill a person with worry!"

Wang Sanbao stretched lazily, "I’m way more comfortable; one eats well and the whole family isn’t hungry!" She didn’t regret her decision one bit; to her, the soldiers in the military were her children.

Fubao patted his stomach, "Grandma, Fubao’s hungry!"

"I’m hungry too, Mom, is there anything tasty to eat?" Xibao felt like his stomach was about to collapse from hunger.

Feng Qingxue quickly got up, "Come on, Mom will take you to the canteen to eat." They had just arrived home today, and nothing was prepared; cooking was certainly not feasible, but she did find some money and Grain Tickets that Lu Jiang had left behind before leaving, quite a significant amount.
