New Year's Eve.
Wen Yanci accompanied Lin Xuqiu to the Lin family in F City.
Today, Wen Yanci wore a black double-sided coat with a turtleneck sweater underneath, and long pants and leather boots. He looked more approachable than usual and less cold.
Lin Xuqiu wore a beige long woolen coat, a knitted long skirt underneath, and low-heeled short boots. Her whole temperament was much gentler. I don’t know if it was because of her pregnancy, but there was a hint of maternal aura.
The two of them standing together are a perfect match made in heaven and very pleasing to the eye.
As soon as I got off the car, the Lin family was waiting at the door, as if they had been waiting for a long time, especially the two old people, whose faces were full of smiles.
Lin Xuqiu raised a sweet smile and shouted.
"Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, brother, Yan Ci and I wish you all a happy new year."
Since becoming pregnant, Lin Xuqiu realized the hardships of pregnancy, so the resentment she felt towards her biological parents in her heart also subsided a lot. She no longer worried about what to call her parents, and simply called them by a name that made them happy.
Wen Yanci was tall and graceful, with an outstanding temperament. She spoke gently and politely to everyone in the Lin family, with a smile as bright as the moon on her face. She followed Lin Xuqiu and greeted the elders of the Lin family one by one.
This was his first time stepping into the Lin family villa, and also his first time seeing the elders coming out to greet the younger generation. After all, this would never happen in the Wen family.
Lin Zhidong and Chen Zhizhi looked at the couple with satisfaction. The grandmother walked up to her granddaughter, held her hand, and kept looking at her and muttering to herself.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back."
Only then did the grandmother look at her grandson-in-law who was next to her granddaughter. She kept looking at him and nodding frequently, as if she couldn't see enough and kept praising him.
"My grandson-in-law is so handsome. He and our Xuqiu are a perfect match. What a talented man and beautiful woman..."
Then the whole family returned to the villa in a mighty procession.
Lin Xuqiu distributed the gifts they had bought in advance to the elders and also prepared red envelopes for their grandparents.
"Happy New Year, Grandpa and Grandma, may you live a long and healthy life."
Grandpa and grandma smiled and handed the big red envelope to the couple.
"Okay, okay, this is the red envelope that grandpa and grandma gave to you and your wife..."
They said in unison: "Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma."
The Lin family doesn't have so many rules. They can give red envelopes whenever they want and don't care whether the couple is married or not. To them, they are just juniors anyway.
Afterwards, Lin Xuqiu and his wife also gave red envelopes to Lin Zhidong and Chen Zhizhi, and said appropriate New Year greetings.
Lin Zhidong and Chen Zhizhi changed their initial reserved attitude and looked kind as they gave the couple the big red envelopes that they had prepared long ago.
At first, Lin Zhidong and his wife were a little intimidated by their son-in-law because they had witnessed his dominance in the hospital.
But now, seeing that he was tactful, gentle and polite in his dealings with others, and that he was really good to Xu Qiu, she let go of her grudges and gladly accepted this son-in-law.
The room was filled with joy, but Zhou Cheng seemed a little quiet. He had a faint smile on his face, but it didn't reach his eyes. When he accidentally saw Wen Yanci and Lin Xuqiu holding hands, his eyes suddenly darkened.
He concluded at a glance that Wen Yanci was a very scheming person. Xu Qiu was so simple that she must be at a disadvantage in this marriage. In addition, the rumors of "discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law" made him have a bad impression of Wen Yanci.
Therefore, he did not show any friendly side to Wen Yanci.
Wen Yanci was aware of all this, but ignored it and treated Zhou Cheng as invisible.
It’s time to eat the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Lin Xuqiu looked at the table full of delicacies from land and sea, and the morning sickness that had eased a lot before came back.
Wen Yanci, who was sitting next to her, had been paying attention to her and soon noticed that something was wrong with her expression. He stroked her back with one hand and asked in a gentle voice with his head down.
"Xuqiu, are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Xuqiu resisted the urge to vomit, stood up, and walked quickly to the bathroom.
Wen Yanci quickly stood up and followed, leaving everyone stunned for a few seconds, looking at each other in confusion.
Chen Zhizhi reacted quickly and was instantly delighted, but some worries welled up in her heart, so she hurriedly followed.
Everyone who reacted came to the bathroom door and waited anxiously, with different expressions on their faces.
After Lin Xuqiu vomited, he was in a bad mental state and was embraced by Wen Yanci.
The man wiped the corner of her mouth with a look of concern on his face and asked.
"Xuqiu, are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"If you still feel uncomfortable, we'll go to the hospital."
Lin Xuqiu waved her hand gently and continued to lie in the man's arms.
Chen Zhizhi next to her asked cautiously with a look of heartache and worry on her face.
"Xuqiu, are you pregnant?"
Lin Xuqiu nodded weakly. Chen Zhizhi was surprised at first, then felt regretful and said regretfully.
"If I had known you were pregnant, I shouldn't have asked someone to prepare this greasy meal."
Wen Yanci hugged Lin Xuqiu and explained.
"Mom, it's not your fault. Xuqiu's morning sickness has eased a lot recently, so I decided not to tell her in advance."
Chen Zhizhi looked at her son-in-law disapprovingly, with some anger in her eyes, and complained.
"Nonsense, as a husband, how could you not tell us in advance about such a big thing as pregnancy?"
Lin Xuqiu didn't want Wen Yanci to be misunderstood.
"Mom, I told him not to tell her. I planned to announce the pregnancy news in the third month."
Chen Zhizhi sighed and said helplessly.
"Oh, you two are such idiots. The three-month announcement is for outsiders, but why don't you even tell your family? Your in-laws won't know either, right?"
Lin Xuqiu shook his head guiltily.
Chen Zhizhi was speechless for a moment, but when she saw her daughter's face was not very good, she felt distressed again and said.
