Chapter 300 New Year’s Eve (3)
"Today is New Year's Eve. Let's raise a toast. I hope everyone here will be safe and healthy in the coming year!"
Returning to their seats, Shen Xiangwan and Wei Chengyi looked at each other, and the couple both raised their glasses.
"cheers!"
Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them lightly, including the little cubs with juice in their glasses. The New Year's dinner officially began from this moment. During the meal, they talked about how they were reduced from the top nobles in the imperial city to exiled commoners, and their experiences on the road to exile. Zhao Yuping couldn't help but wipe away her tears quietly, and the siblings Wei Ling'er and Wei Chenghe also had tears in their eyes. It was really not easy for them at that time.
However, the sadness was only momentary, and when they talked about their current peaceful life, they all smiled again.
Those who have never truly enjoyed peace will never know how precious it is. Although they do not have a prominent status now, they live much more easily than before. There is no doubt that if one day they have to leave here and return to the imperial city with strict rules, they will definitely be very reluctant to leave.
"Wanwan, pour me another glass."
The wine was low in alcohol and had a unique fruity aroma. Zhao Yuping drank several glasses in a row and her face turned a little red.
"Mom, the wine has a strong aftereffect. You'd better not drink it."
This time, Shen Xiangwan didn't pour her any wine. Looking at her flushed cheeks, she knew that she was already drunk. When the aftereffects came, she would feel uncomfortable.
"Really? Then I won't drink it."
Although Zhao Yuping was not a heavy drinker, she was very receptive to advice and immediately took back the cup that was handed to her.
Receiving Shen Xiangwan's eye hint, Wei Linger quickly scooped her a bowl of hot chicken soup: "Mom, drink some chicken soup to warm your stomach."
"good."
Zhao Yuping was naturally happy that her daughter was filial. She took the chicken soup and drank it spoonful by spoonful.
"Auntie, I'm full."
Compared to the adults who ate and chatted, the little cub was full quickly. When he saw Dongzi coming back after dinner, he immediately put down his chopsticks.
“Ahhh!”
As if to cooperate with his brother, Xiaobai, who was lying next to him, also raised his head and called out. Its meal today was also very rich. There was also a large basin of spiritual well water next to the trough, which was specially prepared for it by Shen Xiangwan, but it had already drunk it up.
"Okay, go play, don't run around, okay?"
Shen Xiangwan smiled and carried him down from the chair, straightening his collar.
"good."
Responding obediently, the little cub ran towards Dongzi with Xiaobai, and the two of them took out their bicycles and went outside together.
"Anger is becoming more and more well-behaved. We don't need to worry about him at all."
Looking at their departing figures, Shen Xiangwan smiled sincerely.
"Don't talk about An Ge'er, Wan Wan, when are you going to have a baby with Cheng Yi?"
Perhaps because she was a little drunk, Zhao Yuping suddenly started to induce labor. Her drunken eyes looked back and forth at them, as if to say, you have been married for several months, it's about time for you to have a baby, right?
"Yeah, Wanwan, why haven't you guys made any movement yet?"
Perhaps the elders were all keen on inducing labor, Yun Mengyi also agreed after hearing it. Almost immediately, except for Wei Chengyi, everyone subconsciously looked at her belly.
"Forehead···"
Shen Xiangwan's forehead darkened, and the muscles at the corners of her mouth twitched uncontrollably. What's the matter? Can they still show her that she is pregnant?
"Mom, Master's wife, Wanwan is still young, we are not planning to have children for the time being."
Turning his head to look at her, Wei Chengyi reached out and held her hand. She said that no matter whether it is a man or a woman, the body basically does not fully grow until the age of eighteen. Pregnancy before this can easily cause some unnecessary damage to the body, and may even lead to difficult labor or postpartum hemorrhage. Therefore, he would not let her get pregnant too early. Every time they were in love, he paid serious attention to contraception.
"Don't want children?"
Zhao Yuping frowned reflexively. No wonder they hadn't consummated their marriage for so long and there was still no movement. But, if she still couldn't get pregnant, what would others say about Wanwan in the future?
"Mom, it's very harmful for a woman to have a child too early. This is one of the reasons why so many women suffer from difficult labor and hemorrhage. Besides, I'm still a child myself, how can I be someone else's mother? Please love me and let us be for another two years, okay?"
Standing up and hugging her shoulders from behind, Shen Xiangwan said in a half-joking and half-seriously tone that although she didn't care about the difficulty of delivery, if it really didn't work out, No. 3 and the others could just give her a caesarean section, and then go to the medical cabin to lie down, and she would be able to recover as before soon, but their lives were destined to be turbulent in the next two years, and she didn't want the child to suffer with her. If possible, she even wanted to wait until she conquered the world before considering the issue of having children.
"Don't I love you enough?"
Giving her a sidelong glance in mock annoyance, Zhao Yuping took her hand, motioned her to sit down beside her, and looked at her earnestly, saying, "I'm not trying to urge you to have children, but people's words can be scary. If you keep not having children, people outside will definitely spread rumors that you can't have children. It's not that your mother is being immodest, but our family's conditions are unique in Yong'an Village. If rumors really spread that you can't have children, then some people might have improper thoughts. I'm afraid you'll be wronged."
Zhao Yuping's words came from the bottom of her heart. From the moment the palace suddenly fell and she took on the heavy burden and firmly protected them and the child, she treated her as her own daughter. Not to mention that they didn't want children for the time being, even if she really couldn't have children, she wouldn't say anything. At most, she would express regret and sorrow. From the beginning to the end, she was afraid that she would be wronged.
"It's okay, Mom. If anyone really dares to have that kind of thought, I don't mind teaching him a lesson."
It would be a lie to say that she wasn't moved. Shen Xiangwan felt warm in her heart, and the smile on her face became deeper. Although it sometimes seemed that Zhao Yuping only held them back, it was undeniable that she was a respectable elder. She was very fortunate to have a mother-in-law who cared so much about her.
"Okay, since you're not afraid of those things, I won't worry about it either. You can have a child whenever you want. I respect your opinion."
After looking at her deeply for a while, Zhao Yuping clapped her hands and said helplessly, "This is my own daughter-in-law. What else can I do if I don't spoil her?"
"Thank you, mother."
Shen Xiangwan happily opened her arms and hugged her. She was really lucky. She had a husband who loved her and a mother-in-law who loved her. Not to mention that her brother-in-law and sister-in-law were also working hard to make progress. Even her nephew was well-behaved and obedient. At this moment, she sincerely felt that she was a winner in life.
“You!”
Pretending to be helpless, Zhao Yuping stretched out her finger to poke her head, her tone full of pampering.
"hey-hey···"
With a silly grin, Shen Xiangwan retreated back to Wei Chengyi, who reached out and held her fingers tightly. No more words were needed, their hearts were already tightly attached to each other.
