Lu Yan opened her arms and hugged her mother, "I know, I will tell her."
Lu Zhixia knew that her daughter had a rather carefree personality. The living environment of the past few years had forced her to act like an adult, but after spending time together, she had gradually returned to her childlike nature.
Gu Lingxiao had been eavesdropping on their conversation in the kitchen. Once he knew they had made things clear, he came out with two glasses of milk.
"Yan Yan, drink your milk, and then go to bed early."
Lu Yan mustered her courage and said, "Thank you, Dad!"
Gu Lingxiao's heart skipped a beat. This child had finally stopped calling him Uncle Gu. He reached out and patted the child's head, then handed her the cup.
Lu Yan picked up her cup. "I'm going back to sleep now. You guys should get some rest too."
After watching their child take the cup back into the house, the two of them sat down on the sofa.
Gu Lingxiao reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist. "I'm so happy! Yan Yan finally called me Dad!"
Lu Zhixia was also very happy. Gu Lingxiao had put in a lot of effort during this period and finally gained her daughter's approval.
"We'll have two more babies by this time tomorrow, so we need to keep earning more and more money."
Gu Lingxiao said, "Let's take a break for now. Everything should be focused on you and the child."
Lu Zhixia leaned her head slightly on his shoulder. "Sometimes I'm afraid that I'm having a dream, and when I wake up, everything will be the same as before. Fortunately, this dream is getting better and better."
Gu Lingxiao lowered his head to kiss him, but not as eagerly as before. He only kissed him a few times before letting go, because he was afraid he couldn't take it.
The two children were indeed early; now he'll have to go back to being a monk—
Old Master Bai had a talk with him, saying that people who are pregnant with twins experience not only physical changes but also significant psychological changes.
Especially as the months go by, the body will become increasingly cumbersome.
The implication is that he should prepare in advance and not just focus on his career.
Actually, even without his grandfather saying it, he had already thought of it: some things are destined to be mutually exclusive.
He decided to make sacrifices for his family, and thinking of this, he lowered his head and kissed the woman's forehead again.
"I'm planning to change careers."
"Hmm?" Lu Zhixia looked at him. "Did you make this decision for me and the baby?"
Gu Lingxiao: "I want to spend more time with you all."
Lu Zhixia was very happy, but she had to consider the man's feelings. "As long as you like it, I support your choice."
Gu Lingxiao could no longer resist and lowered his head for a passionate kiss. He stopped just before things escalated, taking a deep breath.
"I'm going to take a cold shower."
Seeing him leave in such a hurry, Lu Zhixia couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Life seemed to be getting more and more interesting, and she was really looking forward to the rest of her life.
——
Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
The Lunar New Year has arrived.
This was the restaurant's last day of business, and Lu Zhixia found that there were a lot of people coming to eat, and some were even ordering freshly made dumplings.
They took it back and put it outside to freeze, which saved them the trouble.
So much so that the kitchen staff were constantly busy, and no one was idle.
Although her baby is only three months old, her belly is already very big, and she doesn't have any morning sickness symptoms right now.
She basically wanted to eat everything she saw, but Lu Zhixia restrained her appetite because she was afraid that the baby would be too big in the early stages and affect its development.
When a plate of dumplings was brought to her, she couldn't resist eating them and quickly put a piece of dried plum in her mouth to suppress the urge.
When Su Lan returned after delivering dumplings to the guests, she saw Lu Zhixia chewing something.
"Are you hungry again?"
"No, I just want to eat a piece of sour plum." Lu Zhixia felt it would have been better not to eat it at all, as the sourness would have made her even more appetizing.
The air was filled with fragrance, and I unconsciously pursed my lips.
Su Lan felt sorry for him. "If you're hungry, I'll go get you some dumplings."
Lu Zhixia said, "No need, I'll hold on a little longer. There are still two hours before dinner."
Su Lan said, "You're eating for three people now, so it's normal to get hungry. As long as you don't eat anything too greasy, you should be fine."
Lu Zhixia was persuaded and said, "Then go and get me a few vegetarian dumplings."
Su Lan went to the kitchen without hesitation. When she came out, she had a small plate in her hand with six freshly cooked dumplings on it.
Lu Zhixia couldn't wait to pick up her chopsticks and start eating, but Su Lan slapped her hand away.
"Eat slowly, these dumplings are fresh out of the pot, don't burn your mouth."
"Okay, I'll put it down for a bit." Lu Zhixia put down her chopsticks. "I'll be busy preparing for the New Year starting tomorrow. Time flies."
Su Lan: "Of course! I can finally rest. I've been exhausted these past few days, and I've even lost weight."
Lu Zhixia: "That's what I wanted to tell you too. I'm planning to hire someone to help you during the Chinese New Year."
Su Lan realized she couldn't handle it all. The dumpling shop was becoming increasingly popular, so they added stir-fries and dumplings, as well as some snacks, basically satisfying the needs of the entire city.
In addition, the ingredients are fresh, the taste is good, and the portions are generous, so many people travel by car to come and eat during mealtimes.
Sometimes if you arrive late, you have to queue outside.
"Then let's hire someone."
"You'll have to keep an eye on things then." After saying that, Lu Zhixia picked up her chopsticks and started eating dumplings very quickly. In the blink of an eye, there was only one dumpling left, and it seemed that she hadn't even tasted anything.
So I chewed the dumpling in my mouth again and again, and only then did it taste good.
Su Lan picked up a newspaper from the side; the headline read "Fuzhou Murder Case," and she immediately saw Chen Jianing's name.
“Look at this name.”
Lu Zhixia turned her head and immediately reached out to take the newspaper. After reading it carefully, she confirmed that it was the same person.
The newspaper detailed the facts of Chen Jianing's murder with others.
