Chapter 315
Before Old Man Duan could say anything, Old Lady Tao spoke first, "The weather is getting hotter day by day. Even if you wear shorter clothes, you won't feel cold. On the contrary, you'll feel very cool. The baby is growing so fast. If I make new clothes for Caixia now, I'll have to make new clothes for her in the fall. I think we should just wait until the weather gets colder before making new clothes for her."
Old Man Duan nodded in agreement: "You are right. I will make new clothes for Caixia when the weather gets colder."
Duan's mother lowered her eyes and said nothing more.
Duan Dawei came back at this time.
"Dawei, you're back!" Old Mrs. Tao said to Duan Dawei with a smile.
Duan Dawei saw Caixia's red and swollen eyes and knew that something must have happened at home. He was about to ask why when Mrs. Tao spoke again.
"Old man, Dawei has been divorced for a while now. Isn't it time to find him a wife? If Dawei has a new wife, Caixia will have someone to take care of her, so I don't have to bother with Caixia every time and get upset."
Old Man Duan nodded after pondering for a moment: "It's time for Dawei to find a new wife."
Duan Dawei opened his mouth and was about to say that he didn't want to find a new wife for the time being, but Old Lady Tao glanced at him and said before he could say anything, "It just so happens that my relatives have a girl who is about the same age as Dawei. She is honest, hardworking, and diligent. Dawei and that girl can get to know each other."
"Yes, sure." Old Mrs. Duan nodded and agreed without hesitation.
"Grandpa, I don't want to go on a blind date for the time being." Duan Dawei said.
"You've been divorced for so long, why don't you want to get married? If you don't think about yourself, you should at least think about Caixia. Caixia needs her mother. Your father passed away early, and this matter should have been arranged by your mother, but I saw that your mother had no intention of doing so, so I took the initiative to arrange it for you." said Old Mrs. Tao.
Mrs. Duan looked very uncomfortable after hearing what Old Lady Duan said.
The reason why she didn't arrange a blind date for Duan Dawei was because Duan Dawei didn't want to go on a blind date yet, and Old Man Duan had just gotten married. She felt that if her family had another wedding soon and Duan Dawei got married, it would be too easy for people to laugh at him. That's why she respected Duan Dawei's opinion and didn't arrange a blind date for him.
Caixia bit her lip, wanting to say that she didn't need a new mother at all. However, she knew that her opinion didn't matter at all.
"Let's talk about the blind date later." Duan Dawei said.
"Your grandma means well, why wait a while?" Old Man Duan said gloomily, "Could it be that you're still thinking about your ex-wife? She brought disgrace to our Duan family. What's there to think about?"
"Grandpa, I don't have one. I just don't want to go on a blind date for the time being." Duan Dawei said helplessly.
Now that there is an old lady Tao at home, it is enough for their family to endure. How can the blind date introduced by old lady Tao be a good one?
"Whether you want to or not, you must go on a blind date this time. Your family is counting on you to carry on the family line, and they're waiting for you to get married and have a son. Your mother is really something, this is something she should be worrying about, but now she's letting your grandma worry about it. But since your grandma has found a suitable partner, you should go and meet him as soon as possible." Old Man Duan said with finality.
Old Mrs. Tao smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll arrange it for Dawei."
Duan Dawei and his mother lowered their eyes with bitter expressions.
…
When Ye Fuyue returned to the Shen family, she did not immediately tell Chen Guifeng about her pregnancy. Instead, she waited until Shen Yao came back before she took out the checkup sheet and showed it to everyone.
"I went to the hospital for a checkup this morning and I'm pregnant, just one and a half months."
Shen Yao looked at the checklist and became excited.
Chen Guifeng was also very happy. She wiped the water off her hands on her apron before taking the checklist and reading it over and over again.
She didn't quite understand, so she could only ask Ye Fuyue, "Are you really pregnant?"
Ye Fuyue nodded.
"Chen Yao, Fu Yue, congratulations." Chen Kang congratulated with a smile.
"What are you congratulating for?" Haohao and Ranran were originally playing nearby. When they heard the noise here, they came over and asked.
"Congratulations on getting rich?" Ranran tilted her head and looked at the adults.
Ye Fuyue and the others were amused by Ranran's words.
Even Chen Shun laughed at him: "You remember the Chinese New Year red envelope request very well. Your mother is pregnant again, and you will have a brother or sister soon."
"Where are my brother and sister?" Haohao asked.
“It’s still in your mother’s belly and won’t come out for ten months,” Shen Shun said.
Haohao and Ranran both stared at Ye Fuyue's belly.
"Uncle, you are lying! Mom's belly is so small, where did the brothers and sisters come from!" Ranran said with puffed up little cheeks.
“Your mother’s belly is small now, but in a few months, your mother’s belly will be big.” Shen Shun said.
Haohao and Ranran tilted their heads, unable to imagine how big their mother's belly had to be to accommodate their younger brother and sister.
"Is mom's belly going to become as big as a balloon?" Haohao gestured exaggeratedly.
“About the same,” Shen Shun said.
"That won't work!" Ranran said seriously, "That's too dangerous! What if Mommy's belly bursts? What about my brother and sister?"
The two little guys' words made the adults laugh again.
Ye Fuyue held the two little ones in her arms, one on each side, and said softly, "Mommy's belly won't burst, and it's not that big."
Ranran was still worried: "Mom, if we don't have a brother and sister, your belly will definitely not break."
"Pfft, pfft, pfft..." Chen Guifeng spat several times and glared at him. "Don't say such unlucky things. The baby is already in your mother's belly. He is very well behaved and won't break her belly."
Ranran nodded doubtfully.
Ye Fuyue smiled and asked the two little ones: "Do you want a brother or a sister?"
"Sister." Haohao said without hesitation.
"I want a younger brother." Ranran said.
"Why do you want a younger brother?" Ye Fuyue asked Ranran.
"I want to be a big brother. I don't want to be just a little brother." Ranran said a little aggrievedly.
"If mom gave birth to a sister, you would still be a brother." Ye Fuyue said.
Ranran looked surprised.
Yes! Whether his mother gave birth to a brother or a sister, he is still the older brother. That's great! That's awesome!
But then, Ranran suddenly thought of something and said, "I still want a brother. Girls are too troublesome. They get angry and cry at the slightest provocation."
"Who did you make angry? Who did you make cry?" Shen Yao asked him with a smile.
Haohao quickly said, "I know! We were playing with Zao'er, and she kept crying."
"You must have not given in to Zao'er, which is why she is crying." Ye Fuyue said.
"We clearly agreed that each person could play marbles for a while, but Zao'er didn't follow the rules and always wanted to play by herself. When we didn't let her, she started crying." Ranran pouted and complained.
