Chapter 606: Failed to please again today?
"It's okay, I'll just sit aside and watch." Lin Mo didn't care.
It’s the New Year, how can we not enjoy the festive atmosphere?
Xu Mengxian couldn't get rid of her, so she could only follow her nervously to protect her, looking as if she was afraid that something might happen to her.
Lin Mo was speechless.
Why does she feel like a porcelain doll that will break if touched?
"Okay, go your own way. I'm not that fragile. Don't let me be fine later and then you get yourself into trouble." Lin Mo shook his head.
She knew her situation and would naturally be careful.
Xu Mengxian disagreed, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'm fine.
My mission today is to take good care of you. This is the mission everyone has entrusted to me."
Nothing is more important than my sister-in-law's safety.
Lin Mo gave up persuading her.
The Xu family members are all stubborn in their bones and cannot be persuaded.
but……
Bang!
Lin Mo turned around and looked at Xu Mengxian who had fallen to the ground, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
As soon as I stopped talking, she fell down.
I really can't blame myself for being a jinx.
"Are you okay?" Lin Mo stepped forward and reached out to help her.
"I don't need your help, sister-in-law, just stand there and don't move. I don't need your help." Xu Mengxian nervously shook her head to indicate that it was not necessary.
After she stopped helping him, he hurriedly got up from the ground:
"Ahem, I'm fine, the road is just too slippery."
This is such an embarrassing situation!
Seeing that she was fine, Lin Mo shrugged, "So I told you to go on your way and don't worry about me.
The ground is frozen, so it's easier to slip if you hold on to it."
She did not miss the moment Xu Mengxian fell. If she had reached out to grab herself for support, she would not have fallen so miserably.
But she refused to grab it and let herself fall to the ground.
She was afraid of being caught, so she would rather throw herself down.
Xu Mengxian smiled awkwardly, "It was just an accident.
But sister-in-law, you really have to be careful. The ground is icy and it's really easy to slip. I just slipped."
Lin Mo nodded, indicating that her cotton coat was wet, and asked her to go back to the room to change clothes first.
Xu Mengxian took a look and saw that it was just a little wet, then shook her head:
"It's okay, it's just a little wet, it's okay if it doesn't get wet inside."
Lin Mo frowned, "Go change your clothes.
What should I do if I catch a cold?
Qinglian is back, I just want Qinglian to accompany me."
And Qinglian just happened to come in from the gate.
Xu Mengxian couldn't persuade Lin Mo, and after repeatedly asking Qinglian to take good care of her sister-in-law, she reluctantly went back to change her clothes.
Oh, I should have been more careful just now.
After seeing her leave, Lin Mo continued to walk outside.
As I walked in the yard, I could already hear the lively noise outside.
Qinglian followed Lin Mo nervously. After making sure that she walked slowly and steadily, Qinglian let out a breath and said in a low voice:
"Young Madam, I just received news from the Young Master that they may not be able to make it back.
The day before yesterday they encountered an avalanche and the carriage could not pass, which delayed them."
"Are they okay?" Lin Mo turned to look at her:
“It doesn’t matter if they can’t come back, the most important thing is their safety.
The reunion dinner can be eaten anytime, the important thing is to make sure they are safe and sound."
This is Lin Mo’s truest thought.
"It's okay, young master and the others are all fine. They discovered the avalanche in advance." Qinglian shook his head and said.
She didn't say that the avalanche that the young master and his friends encountered was man-made.
Anyway, the trouble has been solved, so there is no need to make the young lady worry.
"That's good." Lin Mo let out a breath.
She reached out and touched her belly, and the baby in her belly moved.
Lin Mo couldn't help but want to laugh. Is this child protesting?
It’s almost here. He’s almost back.
…
Soon, Lin Mo appeared in Yuancheng with Qinglian.
When everyone saw her, they greeted her and everyone had a smile on their face.
Lin Mo nodded in response with a smile.
This reunion dinner was held at the market.
The Xu family’s house was not big enough to accommodate more than 300 people sitting at the same time, so only the place that was originally used as a market was big enough.
At this time, the market had already been cleaned, and thirty large round tables were set up. Many braziers were lit around to ward off the cold and keep warm. Young children were happily playing and running between the tables.
At the back of the market, women were washing vegetables and plucking chickens and ducks, while men were chopping vegetables, chopping bones and cutting meat on the chopping board. Not far away, the pot was sizzling with the sound of frying meatballs.
The excitement of the New Year came all at once.
Xu Pinggui, who was in charge of the situation, saw Lin Mo coming and hurried over. He looked at Lin Mo with disapproval:
"Young Madam, you shouldn't come here. The ground here is not only wet but also slippery. It's easy to fall.
Qinglian, you too, how could you allow the young lady to come here and cause trouble?
What if something goes wrong? "
"Okay, Pinggui, stop talking about Qinglian. This has nothing to do with Qinglian. I came here on my own." Lin Mo shook his head:
"It's so lively, I naturally want to come and join in the fun and joy.
Why, you won't let me come?"
Qinglian shook her head at Xu Pinggui, "I can't persuade the young lady to do what she has decided."
So, I really can't blame myself.
Xu Pinggui sighed, "Young Madam, of course that's not what I meant.
Madam, if you want to join in the fun, you can go to the inn. There are many people there.
It's too messy here. Even someone with quick hands and feet can easily fall, not to mention that you are pregnant now.
Also, if you're here, everyone won't be able to work freely. If they slow down, they may not be able to have dinner by 3 p.m.
Young Madam, you are affecting everyone's work speed."
Lin Mo shook her head with a smile at this blatant disdain. She was disdainful wherever she went now!
However, she didn't insist on staying here and causing trouble, but took Qinglian to the inn.
Xu Pinggui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her leave.
The young lady is here, and we have to worry about her safety.
When she's not around, everyone can work with peace of mind.
When Lin Mo arrived at the inn, it was bustling with people like Liu Ying.
At this moment, Lin Shuo and the others were teasing Xu Ziyue.
As soon as Xu Ziyue saw her appear, his eyes lit up immediately, and then he stretched out his hands towards her and spoke clearly:
"Hold me, mommy, hug me."
Lin Mo chuckled, walked over and picked him up.
However, the holding posture is a bit high, mainly because I am afraid that it will press on the belly.
Liu Ying wanted her to put Xu Ziyue down, fearing that the baby in her belly would be crushed, but seeing that she knew her limits, she didn't say anything more.
It’s the New Year, so stop talking too much.
Huangfu Cheng, who was sitting next to him, looked at this scene and suddenly felt jealous.
This kid is really hard to coax.
During this period of time, I tried every possible way to please this little devil, hoping that this little devil would not be so hostile to me.
But no matter what he did, the kid wouldn't even look at him.
Several times, her butt was facing me.
Even the Seventh Prince, who had only been with him for a short time, could get his good face.
When he came to me, he ignored me completely and even attacked me when I teased him.
Now, when he saw Madam Xu Shao, he immediately reached out for a hug. He wanted to hug him, but he refused to let her.
If you are so double-standard at such a young age, what will happen to you when you grow up?
Huangfu Cheng couldn't help but look at the mother and son with a sour look, "Madam Xu, you have to teach this brat a lesson.
It’s unacceptable for someone so young to already be practicing double standards.”
Lin Mo held Xu Ziyue and sat down on a stool beside her, raising her eyebrows:
"Why, did you fail to please me again today?"
As he spoke, he reached out and gently pinched Xu Ziyue's little face, "My son has a unique personality and is indomitable."
She had received news that Huangfu Cheng tried to please her son every day, but her son never gave him a good look.
Xu Ziyue smiled brightly at her, then stretched his neck and shyly kissed Lin Mo. Finally, he lay on top of Lin Mo and said vaguely:
"I like you, mother!"
This scene once again made Huangfu Cheng jealous to death.
Forget it, he decided to give up trying to please this brat. He and he were not compatible and were destined to never be together.
Lin Mo smiled.
I simply held his face with both hands and rubbed his little cheeks with my palms:
"I like Ziyue too. Our Ziyue is getting more and more beautiful."
"Mom, beautiful."
"Ziyue, it looks great!"
…
The questions and answers between the mother and son made everyone laugh.
Liu Ying glanced outside and looked at Lin Mo with some concern, "Momo, will Wu Yan be able to make it back for the New Year's Eve dinner?"
He hadn't come back yet by this time, and she was a little worried that he wouldn't be able to make it back.
But he didn't dare tell Lin Mo directly, for fear that she would get anxious. After all, her current situation was special and she couldn't worry or be too concerned.
"I probably won't be able to make it in time." Lin Mo shook his head:
“I just received news that they encountered an avalanche on their way back the night before, and the carriage couldn’t get through, so they were delayed.
It’s okay, it doesn’t matter if he didn’t make it back, we can just eat our food.
When he comes back, we will have a family reunion dinner together."
Lin Mo is more open-minded. As long as everyone comes back safely, she doesn’t care much about when the reunion dinner can be eaten.
Liu Ying nodded. This was the only way.
When she looked up, she saw Xu Ziyue touching Lin Mo's belly, and suddenly became interested.
"Ziyue, tell grandma, do you think your mother is carrying a brother or a sister? Do you prefer a brother or a sister?"
Xu Ziyue lay on Lin Mo and looked at Liu Ying with a silly smile.
Lin Mo looked at Liu Ying disapprovingly, "Mom, why are you asking this? Zi Yue is so young, what does he understand?"
"You don't know, the boy is very clever with his words, what he says is true." Liu Ying smiled:
"But for our family, as long as the child is yours, it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl."
"Then why are you asking this?" Lin Mo raised her eyebrows. Her mother wouldn't favor boys over girls, would she?
"If I knew it was a boy or a girl, I could make clothes for her." Liu Ying said with disdain:
"You, as a mother, don't care at all.
You yourself are already five months old, so you should start preparing clothes for your baby."
Liu Ying had already made all the preparations. After the Lantern Festival, she would go from house to house to ask for scraps of cloth to make a patchwork quilt for her child.
If a newborn baby wears clothes from many families, he or she will gather the blessings of all families, be less sick and have fewer disasters, and live a long life.
…
Looking at his nagging mother and his brother chatting and laughing with his friends, Lin Mo's face showed a touch of satisfaction.
During the Chinese New Year, having family around is happiness.
It would be even better if Old Xu could come back!
She hopes Lao Xu can come back!
