Chaochao, who was swinging her feet on her little chair, ran over nervously and surrounded Xie Yan when she heard this.
Her eyes revealed worry, her lips were tightly pursed, and her small hands were clenched tightly with tension.
Xie Yan's lips slowly curved upwards, his eyes filled with tenderness and doting. He gently pinched his wife's smooth cheek and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Silly girl, you're pregnant."
"Ah!" Yu Yuehui's eyes widened as she stared at Xie Yan in disbelief, as if time had frozen at that moment. She repeated herself, "I'm pregnant?"
Xie Yan nodded vigorously, his eyes filled with both joy and a hint of self-reproach. "It's been two months."
Sigh, it's all his fault, and he's a doctor, after all.
He hadn't even realized his wife was pregnant for so long.
Yu Yue was stunned for a long time before she finally reacted. She excitedly hugged Xie Yan and shouted, "Ahhhhh! Xie Xiaoyan, I'm pregnant~" Her voice was full of joy and excitement, as if all the happiness had exploded at this moment.
In fact, in the second year after Chaochao was born, many people openly and secretly urged Yu Yuehui to have another child. After all, in that era when traditional ideas were more prevalent, everyone felt that since Chaochao was a girl, the family should have more children, and there should be at least one boy.
Yu Yuehui had also discussed this matter with Xie Yan, but Xie Yan firmly disagreed at the time.
He is well aware of how harmful frequent childbirth is to a woman's body.
But I also understand that I can't say that, since Yu Yuehui can be quite stubborn at times, so saying that won't help.
So he started with the child. Chaochao is still young and needs his parents' company and love the most. Having a second child at this time would inevitably lead to neglecting Chaochao's care.
Xie Yan specifically stated that he was neglected when he was a child, and he does not want his children to suffer the same hardships he did.
Upon hearing this, Yu Yuehui immediately surrendered.
He even relayed his exact words to Qian Hong.
Qian Hong saw Xie Yan's doting affection for Chaochao and naturally understood his concerns. When she heard that Xie Yan was unwilling to wait until Chaochao was older before having children, Qian Hong didn't say anything more.
When Chaochao turned three, Qian Hong couldn't help but bring up the matter again.
Yu Yuehui herself longed to have another child, and Xie Yan, seeing that she was getting anxious, stopped using contraception.
But after discussing it with my wife, we decided to let things take their natural course and not force anything.
Xie Yan had seen people in the village taking random medications to have children. Although he knew his wife would never take random medications, he was still worried.
But having a baby isn't like buying a cabbage; you can't just have one casually.
Although they had agreed on it beforehand, as the days went by, there was still no sign of pregnancy. When Yu Yuehui inevitably felt anxious, Xie Yan would always patiently comfort her, gently reassuring her not to rush, that having a child was a matter of fate, and that everything would fall into place when the time was right.
Gradually, Yu Yuehui stopped being anxious and truly began to let things take their natural course.
Unexpectedly, this little life quietly arrived.
Xie Yan gently patted Yu Yuehui's back, soothing her and slowly calming her excited emotions.
When Chaochao learned that her mother wasn't sick but pregnant, she was just as overjoyed, dancing with joy.
In this era, most families have several children, so Chaochao does not mind having younger brothers and sisters.
On the contrary, because Xie Yan and Yu Yuehui have always given her a lot of love, she is looking forward to the arrival of her younger brother and sister, fantasizing about having a younger brother or sister to take care of in the future. Now that she has found out that Yu Yuehui is pregnant, she is like a little adult and has started planning how she will train him/her after he/she is born. She looks so cute.
When Qian Hong learned that Yu Yuehui was pregnant, she couldn't stop smiling.
But privately, she couldn't help but secretly ask Yu Yuehui if she had any special preferences, subtly trying to find out if the child was a boy.
Xie Yan didn't say much after learning about it.
He knew in his heart that some elderly people's ideas were deeply ingrained, and arguing with them would be pointless.
He specifically instructed Yu Yuehui not to eat anything indiscriminately, and emphasized that in his heart, boys and girls were the same, without any difference; they were both the fruit of their love and his most precious treasures.
Influenced by the thank-you banquet, Yu Yuehui no longer had such a strong attachment to the gender of the child, and was filled with anticipation and joy for the new life. The family was immersed in a happy and warm atmosphere.
Yu Yuehui was incredibly healthy. After becoming pregnant, she acted as if nothing had happened. Apart from a significantly increased appetite, she didn't experience any other pregnancy symptoms.
Xie Yan was overjoyed, but he couldn't help worrying that his wife wasn't getting enough nutrition. So, he would frequently visit the black market to try and buy nutritional supplements like malted milk powder and milk powder.
The family has been providing meat and vegetables every day, preparing them in various ways to nourish Yu Yue's body.
Since becoming pregnant, Yu Yuehui has stopped working so recklessly as before.
With less work to do, I suddenly had plenty of time.
She then pulled Xie Yan along, and the two of them started making all sorts of delicious food at home. Xie Yan saw that she had a particular fondness for food during this pregnancy, so he racked his brains to come up with all sorts of recipes. He came from all over the country, and he would try to bring back any food that Yu Yuehui liked to eat.
He even mobilized his once-useless network of connections to bring back food from all over the country that could be mailed.
Zhou Siyuan and Xie Yuanyuan sent money and a letter directly to Xie Yan, telling him that their wives were pregnant and asking them to send him any good or nutritious food they came across.
As for the others, they would first write to send money or letters, adding kind words, since they hadn't been in touch for many years and wanted to exchange pleasantries.
One of the women had a good relationship with Xie Yan when they were in school, but after graduation, they lost contact with each other when Xie Yan went to work in the countryside.
Xie Yan learned from Li Zhanyang that this person actually worked at the Friendship Store, and how could Xie Yan let go of such a good connection?
In particular, when he learned that Liu Chen's grandfather was in poor health, he directly sent him two bottles of the ginseng wine that he had prepared.
Liu Chen was stunned when he received it.
Especially after learning that Xie Yan did this to get some nutritional supplements from their store for his wife, they couldn't help but feel moved.
Xie Yan was such a proud and aloof person back then, but I never expected him to love his wife so much.
It seems his wife must be very outstanding.
Of course, she was also very grateful for the wine Xie Yan sent.
She took some home that day and gave it to her grandfather. The next day, her grandfather said the wine was good; it warmed him up and he had a good night's sleep, which was rare for him.
