"I don't know. Mom said I'm just a kid, and kids shouldn't ask so many questions."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Yumei helped Huang Qinqin into the room.
When Xu Junhui saw that Huang Qinqin was being helped in by Zhang Yumei, he rushed over worriedly, took Huang Qinqin from her, and asked, "Wife, what happened? Are you hurt somewhere?"
Zhang Yumei slapped Xu Junhui hard across the face and shouted, "Pah! You're the one who's injured! Can't you speak properly?"
Xu Junhui, slapped by Zhang Yumei, cleared his head a bit and realized that Huang Qinqin was indeed unharmed. He then muttered under his breath, "Who told you to help Qinqin in? Anyone would think she was injured..."
Zhang Yumei saw Xu Junhui's mouth moving, but heard no sound. She squinted and asked, "What are you muttering about? Do you have a problem with me?"
"No, no, I mean, what did you go out for today? Why are you so late?"
Xu Junhui dared not tell the truth; Zhang Yumei's Iron Palm technique was no joke.
Upon hearing Xu Junhui's question, Zhang Yumei became excited, put her hands on her hips, and happily announced, "Qinqin is pregnant! Our family is about to have a new member!"
Xu Weiguo was overjoyed; this was truly a joyous occasion! Just imagine, in a few months, he would have a soft, cuddly grandson or granddaughter—he couldn't be happier!
Xu Hongxia exclaimed excitedly, "Really? Then I won't be the youngest in the family anymore, I'll be an aunt! Haha!"
Only Xu Junhui didn't react at all after hearing it; he just stood there blankly.
Only Huang Qinqin knew that Xu Junhui was probably too excited to think straight, his hand holding her was trembling.
After a long while, Xu Junhui finally realized what was happening.
His face instantly lit up with a bright, childlike smile, his excitement overflowing. He rubbed his hands together excitedly and paced back and forth in the room.
Then, as if realizing something, he quickly helped Huang Qinqin sit down and said nervously, "Wife, you must rest well. If you feel unwell or want to eat anything, just tell us."
Then he added, "Should we tell your parents-in-law about this good news as well?"
Before Huang Qinqin could speak, Zhang Yumei replied, "Of course we'll do it, but don't tell anyone other than our in-laws. Children are very petty. We'll wait three months before we talk about it, understand?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Junhui hesitated and said, "Then how about we wait a little longer with my parents-in-law? Let's talk about it again in three months?"
"It doesn't matter with your in-laws; they're all family. Just don't tell other distant relatives or friends."
Xu Junhui nodded after listening and decisively decided to ride his bicycle to Huang Qinqin's parents' house to deliver this exciting good news.
Xu Junhui straddled his bicycle, pedaling hard as if the wheels carried not only his body but also his family's fervent anticipation for the new life. A gentle breeze brushed his cheek, and his thoughts soared with it. He imagined the joy and relief Huang Qinqin's parents would feel upon hearing the news, and his heart was filled with anticipation.
Huang Qinqin watched as Xu Junhui set off without even eating. She called out to him several times, but Xu Junhui didn't hear her and sped off in a flash.
Along the way, Xu Junhui felt as joyful and eager as a bird set free. He walked through familiar streets and alleys, passing by familiar neighbors, wishing he could fly to his parents-in-law's house immediately.
Rather than saying he wanted to share his joy with his parents-in-law immediately, it's more accurate to say that he was too excited and felt like he had nowhere to channel his energy, so he simply wanted to find something to do to distract himself.
Finally arriving at Huang Qinqin's parents' house, Xu Junhui, without even wiping the sweat from his forehead, eagerly knocked on the door.
The door opened, and Huang Eryuan was a little surprised to see Xu Junhui suddenly come over. At this time, they should be eating.
Chen Zhaodi asked from the courtyard, "Honey, who's here? Why aren't they coming in?"
Xu Junhui replied excitedly, "Mom, it's me!"
"Junhui's here! Come in quickly, don't just stand there."
Chen Zhaodi was also puzzled. Why had they come at this time? Had something happened to her daughter?!
However, judging from Xu Junhui's expression, it doesn't seem like it; after all, he looked quite excited. Excited?!
Chen Zhaodi suddenly thought of a possibility and asked expectantly, "Junhui, did you come here in such a hurry because you have something to tell us?"
Xu Junhui nodded, panting heavily, and said loudly, "Dad, Mom, Qinqin is pregnant! You're going to be grandpa and grandma!"
Sure enough! Chen Zhaodi had just been thinking that what could make Xu Junhui so excited was most likely that his daughter was pregnant!
"When was it discovered? Has she been to the hospital for a checkup? Did she only find out when she was feeling unwell? No, I have to go see Qinqin!"
As she spoke, Chen Zhaodi became nervous. She thought that her daughter was only eighteen years old and had suddenly discovered that she was pregnant. There were no elders around, so she must be very flustered.
Zhang Yumei: Mother-in-law, have you forgotten about me...?
Seeing Chen Zhaodi so agitated, Xu Junhui calmed down a bit. He reassured her, "Mom, don't be nervous. Qinqin is perfectly healthy. She just had a delayed period, which is why she went to the hospital for a checkup."
"You haven't finished eating yet, have you? You can come and see Qinqin again when you have a couple of days off. There's no rush now."
Huang Eryuan also chimed in, "Yes, if you go now, you won't stay long before you have to go back to work. It's better not to go through all that trouble. We can go see our daughter together when we have time off."
Huang Jianguo and Huang Jianjun nodded in agreement: "Yes, Mom, you can prepare some of the things your little sister likes to eat these next few days and take them to her together."
Huang Jianguo was quite excited to know he was going to be an uncle, but when he looked at Xu Junhui, his feelings became somewhat complicated.
Although I knew that my younger sister would definitely get pregnant and have children after getting married, I still feel inexplicably unhappy now that she is actually pregnant.
Especially when I saw Xu Junhui, I felt like beating him up. It felt like my own cabbage had been eaten by a pig.
Even though the Xu family treated the younger sister very well, she was still unhappy.
Xu Junhui felt that his brother-in-law's gaze was a bit strange, and he inexplicably felt a chill down his spine.
For some reason, Xu Junhui felt inexplicably guilty when he met Huang Jianguo's gaze. He touched his nose and said, "Dad, Mom, older brother, second brother, I haven't eaten yet, so I'll go back first."
"Okay, we've almost finished eating. Otherwise, you can just eat here. You should go back now."
"Remember to tell Qinqin to be careful, we'll be going to visit her this weekend."
"Okay, I'll remember to tell her."
After saying that, he quickly rode away on his bike. He had a feeling that his brother-in-law wanted to beat him up, so he decided it was best to leave first.
