Chapter 421 Let him fall in love with me

Xia Qingcao's eyes lit up for a moment after hearing her sister's words, and then she asked worriedly:

"Is it okay?"

Xia Qingli smiled and didn't say anything, but directly put his hand on her belly, and then used her consciousness to tell the baby in her belly to let him move. Unexpectedly, the baby was quite cooperative, and soon Xia Qingcao felt his presence.

"Ah, he moved, he moved." Xia Qingcao was excited and excited, clenched her hands, and moved up and down, almost jumping up on the spot, as if she felt something wonderful.

Looking at his excited look, Xia Qingli remembered the scene when Lu Jingqi felt the fetal movement for the first time. Such a calm and self-sustaining person was just like Qingcao now, with a face full of excitement and happiness like a child.

"When will he be born?" Xia Qingcao asked her sister impatiently.

"Soon, in three months." Xia Qingcao replied with a smile. Maybe because she was about to become a mother, she had a gentle temperament now.

From her happy mood and her peaceful appearance, it can be seen that Lu Jingchen took good care of her.

"Doesn't that mean I can be a brother soon?" Xia Qingcao said excitedly.

Hahaha...

Everyone laughed after hearing what he said. Guo Yumei patted her son who was so happy that his brain was not working well, and corrected him:

"Silly boy, why are you a brother? You are an uncle."

Xia Qingcao obviously did not adapt to the title of "uncle". In the village, half-grown children like him and children younger than him all called him brother, so she did not react for a while and thought she was going to be a brother.

"Oh, yes, I am an uncle, hehe..." Xia Qingcao said happily after she reacted.

"You are the younger uncle." Xia Qingshu looked at him and said, then looked at his brother Qingshu:

"Brother is the older uncle."

Hahaha...

Everyone in the room laughed, and the family was happy.

Not long after Lu Jingzhen returned home, he went to the kitchen to prepare cooking. He was afraid that Xia Qingxing would be tired, so he didn't let him cook, and only asked her to look after the stewed chicken. The other ingredients were prepared before he went to pick up people, and they could be eaten after they were cooked.

Seeing her son-in-law enter the kitchen, Guo Yumei, who was naturally restless, immediately followed him in and started cooking with Lu Jingzhen.

After a while, the dishes were served, and after several people sat down, they started to eat with chopsticks.

At the table, Lu Jingzhen kept taking care of his daughter-in-law, serving her soup and dishes, and was very considerate. Xia Qingxing just had to eat.

After dinner, Lu Jingchen cleaned up the dishes and prepared to wash them, but Guo Yumei stopped him and said she would wash them herself. Lu Jingchen went to boil water and prepared to let his brothers and sisters who came from afar take a hot bath.

When everyone finished taking a bath, it was almost dark. It was winter and it got dark early. The family gathered around the stove to keep warm and chatted about family matters. It was very warm.

At this time, Xia Qingcao seemed to have thought of something and hurried away. After a while, he came back with a handful of chestnuts and handed them to Xia Qingliu like presenting a treasure:

"Sister, here are some chestnuts for you. They are crispy and sweet and delicious."

"Ah?" Xia Qingliu looked at the chestnuts he handed over, hesitated for a moment, and asked:

"Do you want to eat them raw?"

She had only eaten fried chestnuts before, and this was the first time she knew that chestnuts could be eaten raw.

Xia Qingcao listened to her words, and a puzzled look appeared on her face. After a pause, she said:

"Sister, didn't you like eating chestnuts the most in the past? When chestnuts were ripe, you always took me to pick them..."

"Your sister is pregnant now, and she can't eat them raw." Lu Jingxie, who was standing next to her, was surprised to see that Xia Qingcao looked a little unnatural, so he spoke to help her out, then stood up, found a wire mesh, took the aluminum pot on the stove, put the wire mesh on it, and roasted the chestnuts on it.

After a while, Guo Yumei went to get a pickled rabbit, chopped it into small pieces, and put some on the wire mesh, and everyone started chatting again.

As the fragrance slowly drifted out, the chestnuts and rabbit meat were also roasted.

Xia Qingxing was worried that the baby couldn't eat too many pickled foods, so Lu Jingchen symbolically gave her a little, and then peeled the roasted chestnuts and handed them to him.

Seeing that he cared so much about Xia Qingxing, the Xia family, mother and son, were very pleased.

After they finished eating, the lights-out signal sounded outside. Xia Qingcao immediately stood up in awe. The signal she felt in reality was louder and more inspiring than the one on the phone.

"Sister, can you take me to see the soldiers' training tomorrow?" Xia Qingcao hesitated, but couldn't help but asked Xia Qingxing.

"Your sister is not convenient." It was Lu Jingchen who spoke.

Just as Xia Qingcao said "Oh" in disappointment, she suddenly heard the man next to her looking at her and saying in a low voice:

"I'm free."

Xia Qingcao immediately realized that Lu Jingqi was going to take her to the army in person to watch the soldiers training. She immediately showed excitement on her face and said to him:

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

Seeing his happy look, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

After returning home, Zhu Wanru carefully told Mo Xiaoxiao everything that happened after Xia Qingxi came to the army.

Mo Xiaoxiao actually knew a general idea from Zhu Wanru's previous phone call.

She was really surprised to hear that Xia Qingxi was now teaching everyone to play the piano in the art troupe. This was too different from the character she wrote.

She had some bad guesses in her mind, but she couldn't judge without seeing Xia Qingxi herself.

"Did she come alone to join the army last year? No one accompanied her?" Mo Xiaoxiao asked Zhu Wanru.

She remembered clearly that in her book, Wang Mingfang arranged for her niece to join the army with Xia Qingxi, ostensibly to take care of the pregnant Xia Qingxi, but in fact to seduce Lu Jingchen.

"No one is with her, just her." Zhu Wanru answered as usual. Looking at her beautiful daughter beside her, she hesitated for a moment and said,

"Xiaoxiao, Lu Jingchen is married now, and has a good relationship with that woman... I think Su Xiangnan is more suitable for you than him, why don't you consider him."

Although Su Xiangnan and Mo Zhenzhen had met each other, they did not succeed.

In the army, Su Xiangnan has the best family background and outstanding appearance and ability among the young men of the right age. Zhu Wanru really doesn't want to miss this great candidate for son-in-law.

Even though she knows that people might talk about their family behind their backs and that the two girls have fallen in love with the same person, she doesn't care. These gossips are not as important and real as vested interests.

"Mom, don't worry about this. I know what I'm doing." Mo Xiaoxiao pondered for a while and said to Zhu Wanru.

In her heart, she still likes Lu Jingchen more, but she won't give up Su Xiangnan completely. The best result is the same as in the book: she and Lu Jingchen get married and have children, and Su Xiangnan silently protects her.

"Mom, has Mo Daya also joined the art troupe?" Mo Xiaoxiao seemed to have thought of something and asked Zhu Wanru.

"Yes." Zhu Wanru got angry when she mentioned Mo Daya, and her eyes were filled with anger and resentment:

"She now eats and lives in the art troupe and has no contact with her family. Instead, she is as close to Xia Qingxi as real sisters."

"They have a good relationship?" Mo Xiaoxiao was obviously a little surprised. After getting Zhu Wanru's affirmative answer, the corners of her mouth suddenly rose slightly. She was worried that she couldn't find a chance to get close to Xia Qingxi. Isn't this the opportunity?

"Mom, I'm going to find Director Mu of the art troupe tomorrow and tell her about joining the troupe." Mo Xiaoxiao looked at Zhu Wanru and said.

In the past few years, she studied music abroad and returned with a diploma from Bo Tu Dun Conservatory of Music. It was not difficult for her to join the art troupe.

Now the New Year is coming soon, and the troupe has to prepare for the New Year's Eve party, which is the most important party of the year. She must make a grand appearance and amaze everyone.

In the book, Su Xiangnan fell in love with her at first sight after listening to her piano performance.

This time, she also wants Su Xiangnan to fall in love with her completely like in the book!
