Wang Fang explained with a smile.

"I've been pregnant before, and I can tell what a pregnant woman looks like at a glance."

Although your belly isn't very big, the way you walk is different from people who aren't pregnant. I'd guess you're only about three months pregnant.

That was spot on; Wang Fang predicted everything.

"Young lady, my name is Wang Fang. This lady is Liu Li. What's your name? Are you also a military dependent accompanying the army?"

"How come I've never seen you before?"

Lin Han replied, "My name is Lin Han. My husband was just transferred to the Kyoto Military Region yesterday, and I only came here with him yesterday. I haven't really shown my face in the compound yet."

Wang Fang nodded. "Oh, I see. From now on, we're all sisters in the same compound. If you need anything, just let us know. We know this place well and can help you out."

Lin Han did not refuse the two older sisters' kindness. She was new here and needed to get to know some new people, otherwise it would be too boring to stay at home by herself throughout her pregnancy.

"Then thank you in advance, big sister."

Lin Han noticed that Wang Fang's pants didn't fit and casually asked about it.

"Why are you wearing your man's pants? They may be big, but they're straight up and down and easily fall down, and they're inconvenient when you go to the toilet."

Wang Fang didn't feel embarrassed at all.

"Everyone dresses like this. Starting from five or six months, all the old clothes and pants become unwearable. We can only make do with a couple of men's pants, what else can we do?"

Liu Li echoed.

"That's right. There are quite a few pregnant women in the courtyard. I know at least a dozen. Everyone's clothes don't fit anymore. Some of them can even wear men's pants, but their tops don't fit either. Like me, I can find a shirt that fits, but the underwear underneath is too tight."

She wasn't shy at all and directly pulled open her collar to show Lin Han.

The so-called "small clothes" are actually just two pieces of cloth sewn together to prevent leakage.

Lin Han seemed to be deep in thought.

"Would you like to wear maternity clothes that fit well?"

"Maternity wear? Never heard of it."

Lin Han knew, of course, that they had never heard of it; it was something that only existed in later generations.

Seeing that Wang Fang and Liu Li's clothes were ill-fitting, Lin Han thought of her late pregnancy. She couldn't bear to wear such ill-fitting clothes.

But if I wear maternity clothes alone, I'm afraid that if someone with ulterior motives sees them, they might label me a "capitalist."

So I decided to lead everyone to wear maternity clothes, which transformed something that I was doing for my own enjoyment into something that benefits the masses, thus changing its nature.

"We modify the clothes according to the body shape of pregnant women to make them more comfortable to wear."

Pregnancy is a very difficult thing, but at least we women should be able to dress decently.

"Yes, I think Lin is right. We should dress decently too. I never want to wear my husband's pants again, which can't even be buttoned up."

Wang Fang was deeply moved by Lin Han's words.

A pregnant woman who was taking a walk over heard Wang Fang and Liu Li chatting with a woman she didn't recognize, so she came over to join them.

"You were just talking about maternity clothes? What kind of clothes are you referring to?"

Lin Han couldn't really demonstrate, so she just asked who knew how to make clothes.

Liu Li replied, "I can. When I got married, my in-laws gave me a sewing machine, and I usually make some simple clothes myself."

Lin Han nodded, "Okay, then I'll go back and draw up the design sketches, and you can make the finished garments. That will make it much easier to understand."
