The issue with Qi Fengping settled just like that, mindful of the strange looks from the villagers, she shut herself indoors. For her to miscarry at such a late stage was akin to giving birth, causing great harm to her body, and she had to undergo a confinement period.
Once it was resolved, Qi Taiguo returned to his military unit after canceling his leave, but no one knew that he made another trip to Tong County before leaving.
As for Qi Fenglian, who was just a worker and had already taken enough leave, she couldn't stay any longer and returned to Qing City to work.
Cheng Su decided to stay for a few more days to help out.
With what happened to Qi Fengping, Mother Qi was exhausted, having to care for the confinement, manage household affairs, and take care of Xiao Bao, all of which became overwhelming., and Cheng Su stayed behind to help for a few days, until it was time for Qi Jianguo to head to Guangcheng, and they would go back together.
