Jiang Si thought for a moment, "Mom, why don't you sleep with me tonight, and let A-Zhou go to your room?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huo's eyes lit up immediately.
Yeah, it's all the same whether we sleep on the floor or not!
"Okay, then Mom will sleep with you tonight."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Tingzhou stopped making the bed completely.
He looked up and glanced at Jiang Si.
Although he didn't say a word, Jiang Si understood the accusation in his eyes at a glance.
Jiang Si blinked, pretending not to see it.
The words have already been spoken; it would be very inappropriate for her to go back on her word now.
Besides, is it really necessary to make such a fuss over just one night?
Huo Tingzhou demonstrated through his actions that he was determined not to back down on this matter.
If this precedent is set today, there will never be a place for him to sleep on the floor again.
So he looked at his own mother with a deep gaze, and took a deep breath.
Huo Tingzhou said, "Mom, you should go back to your room and sleep."
Mrs. Huo was puzzled, "Is it not allowed for me to sleep with my daughter-in-law for one night?"
Huo Tingzhou: "Mom...you snore at night, and Sisi is a light sleeper, so she won't be able to sleep."
What?
snore?
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huo's eyes widened instantly, as if she had heard something out of the blue.
"You...you're saying I snore?"
Huo Tingzhou nodded. "Mm."
They were hitting very loudly; he had been woken up many times when he was at home.
"Impossible, I sleep very quietly!"
Mrs. Huo was so angry that she waved her hands, her face saying, "Don't wrong me."
"You know your dad, he can't stand even the slightest noise."
"If I were snoring, he would have said so already."
Huo Tingzhou was silent for a while, then said, "Mom, is it possible that Dad doesn't care...?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huo fell silent.
Well, I'm a little embarrassed to say it.
You know, this guy is something else. They've been married for so many years, what can't he say?
Thinking about these things, Mrs. Huo's eyes began to wander.
"Well... it's getting late, Sisi, you should get some rest. Mom... Mom's going to sleep."
Seeing her mother-in-law flee in panic, Jiang Si couldn't help but smile.
But then, an idea popped into my head uncontrollably.
Jiang Si: "Do I snore when I sleep?"
Huo Tingzhou shook his head. "No."
"Really?" Jiang Si looked at him with a suspicious gaze.
If they really snore, then we'll have to sleep in separate rooms.
Otherwise, if you don't sleep well for a long time, you're more likely to become mentally weak.
Huo Tingzhou remained expressionless: "Really."
She paused, then added, "You were sleeping very peacefully."
As quiet as a kitten.
Breathing was light and even.
So much so that now every time he wakes up, he subconsciously goes to take a look.
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Jiang Si didn't continue the topic.
Huo Tingzhou said softly, "Go to sleep. You have to go to the hospital for a prenatal checkup early tomorrow morning."
Jiang Si nodded. "Mm."
I slept soundly through the night, and when I woke up, breakfast was already on the table.
The main dish is pumpkin, red date, and millet porridge, which also contains various kinds of beans.
While Jiang Si was washing up, Huo's mother had already prepared the porridge and left it to cool, so it was just right to eat now.
"How is it? Do you like the porridge?" Mrs. Huo asked.
Although Jiang Si isn't very good at cooking, this porridge clearly took a lot of effort to make.
"Mom, I have a small appetite, so you don't need to get up so early. Just cook some plain porridge in the morning."
But to be fair, this porridge is much tastier than plain porridge.
After saying that, Jiang Si scooped up another spoonful and put it in her mouth.
Seeing that she was eating with relish, Mrs. Huo was very happy.
In fact, she had already discovered yesterday that her daughter-in-law had a small appetite.
Fortunately, she had made preparations in advance. "Sisi, take a look and see what you want to eat for lunch. Mom will make it for you."
Jiang Si was taken aback when she saw what Huo's mother handed her. "Mom, what is this?"
"This is a recipe for medicinal cuisine."
After saying that, Huo's mother gestured for her to open it and take a look. "I was going to show it to you yesterday, but the third son distracted me and I forgot about it."
After reading it, Jiang Si was immediately shocked.
"Mom, can you cook all the dishes on this menu?"
"Of course."
When she said this, there was a hint of pride in her voice.
"Most of the recipes here are medicinal cuisine. Tell me in advance what you would like to eat, don't be shy."
"It's okay if you have a small appetite, we can eat smaller meals more frequently."
Perhaps fearing that Jiang Si might feel burdened, Huo's mother said, "When your second sister-in-law was pregnant with Jingqian, she didn't have much of an appetite either, so I started making her different kinds of delicious food."
"After about half a month of treatment, her appetite improved a lot."
"Mom, you're so good to me."
After Jiang Si finished speaking, she suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong?" Seeing the strange look on her face, Huo's mother's heart skipped a beat.
Jiang Si spoke frankly, "Mom, I'm really worried. What if both of these babies in my belly are boys?"
Mrs. Huo was speechless for a moment after hearing this, even though she also really wanted a granddaughter.
But there's no use in them thinking about it.
The key is whether the third son can live up to expectations.
However, she still offered words of comfort. Patting Jiang Si's hand, Huo's mother said, "As long as the child is healthy, it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. Our family will not favor girls over boys; we will treat both genders equally."
Jiang Si knew this, but that wasn't what she wanted to say.
