When Han Qiulin heard Lin Xiaoxiao's words, his eyes darted around, probably trying to think of a solution.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoxiao said, "We can offer suggestions in private, but we can't influence Qiu Tang's emotions in front of her. After all, advising someone to sever ties is a rather outrageous idea, both now and in the future."
Lin Xiaoxiao was afraid that Han Qiulin's personality might lead him to say something in front of Li Qiutang, influencing Li Qiutang's judgment.
Actually, Lin Xiaoxiao had another meaning behind her words.
I just want to see how Li Qiutang views her family. If she's a person with a strong personality, she's willing to make selfless sacrifices for her family without expecting anything in return.
If Li Qiutang really doesn't mind being exploited by her family like this, then I would absolutely not approve of her relationship with Han Qiulin.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt that Bai Hehua was right. There shouldn't be a daughter-in-law like that in the family. Even if she liked her a lot, it was better to break it off. It's better to end it sooner rather than later, so that there wouldn't be a lot of problems in the family later, and she would be either dealing with troubles every day or on her way to deal with troubles.
Lin Xiaoxiao and Bai Hehua have said everything they needed to say; how they proceed is up to them.
The most important thing right now is for Lin Xiaoxiao to have a baby.
Bai Hehua only spoke briefly with Han Qiulin. She didn't want to say too much, as rambling would only make everyone feel uncomfortable. Besides, she had many things to do.
It's so hot today. I need to take out the children's clothes and other things I bought from the department store last time to wash, dry and sterilize them. Before, I just put them in the closet and didn't take care of them at all.
Washing it several times will make the fabric softer, making it more comfortable for children to wear.
Because Lin Xiaoxiao and Han Qiushi couldn't stop buying, one bamboo pole in the yard wasn't enough to dry their clothes, so Bai Hehua immediately told Han Qiulin, who was standing there in a daze, to get a bamboo pole.
After washing and tidying up like that, it got dark very quickly.
Bai Hehua spent the afternoon preparing soup, filling a bowl and placing it in front of Lin Xiaoxiao: "Eat more meat and less staple food tonight. With meat in your mouth, you won't get hungry so easily at night."
It felt like only a short time had passed, but Lin Xiaoxiao's belly had grown even bigger. Lin Xiaoxiao's body hadn't gained much weight, although her appetite was still as terrible as before, but all the nutrients in her body were being absorbed by the two little ones in her belly.
Bai Hehua couldn't help but worry: "Xiaoxiao, you still need to control your food intake a bit more. Try to eat more filling foods, but don't eat as much as before."
When I was pregnant with Han Qiushi, I didn't know much about it, and my mother-in-law wasn't there to guide or take care of me. I was worried that the baby in my belly wouldn't get enough nutrition, so I kept eating.
During her final delivery, she suffered greatly, struggling for a whole day and night before finally giving birth to Han Qiushi. When she weighed him, the little guy weighed a good eight pounds.
Back then, it was rare to see a child that big, whether at the hospital or in the neighborhood. Everyone was astonished; the boy was incredibly fat.
She understood better when she was pregnant with Han Qiulin, and her delivery went much more smoothly, without much suffering.
Lin Xiaoxiao is pregnant with twins, and if she's not careful, the delivery will be even more difficult.
After dinner, everyone sat and chatted for a while. So much had happened in the past two days, and everyone needed to be on the same page. So, what was called a chat was more like a small family meeting.
After the meeting, Han Qiushi took Lin Xiaoxiao to rest. The past two days had been exhausting for everyone, and they needed a good rest tonight.
Once inside the room, Lin Xiaoxiao carefully took a shower in the space. When she came out of the room, she saw Han Qiushi bringing over a foot bath basin.
As time went on, Lin Xiaoxiao's lower limbs swelled up. Fortunately, the food at home was not bad, so she did not suffer from malnutrition or leg cramps.
Even so, Han Qiushi still massages Lin Xiaoxiao's feet recently to relieve the swelling.
Seeing Han Qiushi patiently massaging her foot, Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Thank you, Dad."
Han Qiushi laughed upon hearing this: "The mother is even more tired. She's exhausted these past two days. Go to sleep."
Lin Xiaoxiao just likes to say things like that. She doesn't feel guilty when Han Qiushi helps her wash and dry her feet. And sure enough, her legs and feet do feel more comfortable after the massage.
The summer nights were very hot and humid. The sheets under her had long been replaced with a cooling mat, but that was still not enough. Lin Xiaoxiao didn't care what Han Qiushi would think and had already taken out a silent air conditioner fan from her space.
With this thing, I can finally sleep in the same bed with Han Qiushi. Otherwise, Han Qiushi is a giant heater, and I'm always unbearably hot, whether I sleep on him or not.
To avoid being discovered, their room was kept locked from the inside during this period. As soon as she heard any noise, Lin Xiaoxiao would immediately put it away. As for the electricity bill, Lin Xiaoxiao made Han Qiushi pay it on his own initiative to avoid being exposed later.
Feeling the cool breeze, and then wrapping myself tightly in a thin blanket, that uniquely summery sense of comfort is simply unbearable.
Lin Xiaoxiao slept straight through until dawn. Today, she planned to go to the factory in the military base with Han Qiushi.
Looking at her round belly, Bai Hehua said worriedly, "Shouldn't you rest for a couple more days? After all, you had such a big ordeal the day before yesterday."
"I'm fine, Mom. I feel the same as usual these past two days. When I got to the factory, I didn't do any work. I just gave some instructions from the side. I don't do any heavy work."
"Alright, just keep that in mind."
After saying that, Bai Hehua brought out the breakfast she had prepared, and the family sat down to eat. Bai Hehua glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao's stomach and said her plan, "Dad, this place is spacious, and there is still room in the backyard. I plan to fence it off and raise more chickens, and also grow some vegetables."
"This way, it will be convenient for Xiaoxiao to eat during her postpartum period, and you can also get some nourishment. Anyway, the space is just sitting empty." Bai Hehua thought that since Lin Xiaoxiao was carrying twins, her postpartum period would definitely need to be taken good care of. She didn't need to eat a chicken every day, but at least she should have chicken to eat.
Another thing is that the compound is safer than her own place. Now that Xia Ri and the others are gone, there's no need to think about moving back. Lin Xiaoxiao's body can't withstand another round of moving.
Grandpa Han nodded: "Okay, you can do whatever you want with this place. If you can't manage it, just call Xiao Yang over to help." Xiao Yang was Grandpa Han's bodyguard. He hadn't been with Grandpa Han all the time lately, but he still had to be on standby nearby at all times.
"Okay." And that was the simple decision.
The family discussed this topic while eating.
While everyone was chatting and eating, the police unexpectedly showed up at the door.
Seeing the Li family mother and daughter standing next to the police, Lin Xiaoxiao and the others turned green with anger. This family really had no end in sight.
When the police arrived at their home, Han's father and Han Qiushi stood up and went over to negotiate, telling Lin Xiaoxiao and the others to continue eating breakfast and that they would talk about it when they finished eating.
