Jiang Nian leaned over and wanted to hug Zhao Xiaobei, but as soon as she moved, her big belly in front of her hindered her movement and caused a pain.
“Hiss—”
Even someone as strong as Jiang Nian couldn't help but let out a gasp at this moment.
Zhao Xiaobei stared at Jiang Nian nervously with his dark eyes, "Aunt Jiang, what's wrong with you? Do you have a stomachache?"
"No..." Jiang Nian shook her head, but her complexion was not good, and her face was pale.
After the news came out last night, Jiang Nian did not sleep all night. He first sent Qin Sanye away, then worked with Song Yingying in the second half of the night, and then went to find Gu Jingmo early in the morning.
After finally returning to the compound, she didn't have time to rest. She saw Song Yingying off and then organized her sisters-in-law to make mosquito repellent sachets together.
Jiang Nian spent the whole day busy and taking care of others. She was strong and calm, and completely forgot that she was still a pregnant woman in her seventh or eighth month and would give birth soon.
She was really too tired. The only consolation was that although little Anbao cried last night, he was able to eat and sleep well during the day. He would lie on the bed with his butt raised and fall into a deep sleep, saving Jiang Nian a lot of trouble.
Jiang Nian sat on a chair with a pillow under his lower back, frowning slightly, waiting for the pain to subside.
Zhao Xiaobei nervously held Jiang Nian's hand, not wanting to let go, worried about what would happen if something really happened to Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian took a deep breath for a while and finally recovered from the pain. She looked at Zhao Xiaobei who was about to cry and said softly, "Xiaobei, don't worry, Aunt Jiang is fine."
She held Zhao Xiaobei's little hand and placed it on her round belly.
Jiang Nian smiled lightly, "Just now it was the baby in my belly who kicked me accidentally."
"Really?"
Zhao Xiaobei's attention was slightly diverted from Jiang Nian's poor health to the fetal movement in her belly.
He was just a child and had no idea how a baby came out of its mother's belly. He also didn't know that a baby could move while still in its mother's belly.
"Of course it's true! They are so naughty."
Jiang Nian continued to hold Zhao Xiaobei's hand, gently stroking her belly, then found a small bulge and looked at Zhao Xiaobei with encouraging eyes.
"Xiaobei, feel it."
With confusion and curiosity, Zhao Xiaobei slowly reached out his hand, placed his palm on Jiang Nian's belly, and gently rubbed it.
Suddenly, he felt movement under his palm.
It really moved!
Zhao Xiaobei's eyes widened. He looked at Jiang Nian, then at Jiang Nian's belly. "Aunt Jiang, this is amazing. The baby is really moving. It's moving under my hand."
"They are so naughty. Maybe they are fighting with each other now; or maybe they heard us talking and reached out to say hello to you."
"Can the baby still hear us?"
"Of course, the baby is already a little life. After a while, it will come out to meet us. By then, Xiaobei will not only be An An's brother, but also their brother."
"Then I am... the big brother."
