Xiao Guo couldn't help blushing and her heart beating fast when she heard this title. She was already a mother of two children, and he actually called her a good girl. Although she liked it very much, this was after all outside...
Xiao Guo looked around in panic, and only felt relieved when she found that there was no one else around.
Fortunately, her home is in a remote area, otherwise if someone heard it, she would be too shy to go out.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Jiang Shanhe was a little anxious, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"No, no." Seeing the other party's anxious look, Xiao Guo hurriedly shook his head, "I'm not feeling uncomfortable, it's you."
"I?"
Jiang Shanhe put down the hoe and touched his face and body. Everything was fine and there was nothing wrong.
"I want you to come over and rest for a while."
Xiaoguo said with a smile, she didn't know why Jiang Danhe suddenly became so cute.
Seeing that he didn't move, Xiaoguo patted his side and said, "Come here."
After eating, you must digest the food before exercising, otherwise you will easily get stomach problems.
Jiang Shanhe sat over with a red face, and the two of them leaned against a big tree behind them, quietly appreciating the beautiful scenery.
Taohua Village is actually very beautiful, with fresh air and nice landforms. It is really a livable village.
Jiang Shanhe slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look around him, and asked softly, "Xiaoguo, are you willing to go to the capital with me?"
"Beijing?" Xiao Guo opened her eyes and looked at him, "But my belly..."
"I mean, after our baby is born."
Jiang Shanhe was very serious. Xiaoguo avoided his gaze and looked into the distance. "Zhuangzhuang and Confucius are getting more and more in sync. What should he do?"
Jiang Shanhe choked, and the light in his eyes faded. Yes, how could he have forgotten this.
"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Jiang Shanhe smiled. In fact, she didn't have to insist on being together physically. As long as their hearts were together, they wouldn't feel lonely even if they didn't have to be together all the time.
Xiaoguo nodded gently. It was not that she had not thought about going to the capital with him, but there were too many things to consider: the store, the animals at home, her friends, her brother...
"I will come back once a month from now on."
Jiang Shanhe looked at the distressed man and comforted him, saying, "It's no big deal. You can just run a few more times."
"My dear, wait till I finish everything in the capital, and then we, the four of us, will go traveling around the world."
Xiao Guo looked at him in surprise, "Why are you thinking of traveling around the world?"
"I heard from Su Changsheng that the world is big. I want to take you out for a walk while we are still young."
Jiang Shanhe had made a plan. He would try to work for a few more years, and then after training a large group of loyal secret soldiers for Shao Zhan, he would retire completely. By then, no matter whether Shao Zhan let him go or not, he would leave.
Xiaoguo was moved by what he said. She had always wanted to go out for a walk and look around, and it would be great if she could do so.
"Will I be ugly when I get old?"
Jiang Shanhe was stunned, looked at her carefully, and after she blushed, he shook his head and said, "No, you will always be the most beautiful in my heart."
Xiaoguo felt happy. Before she could say anything, the man asked, "Will you dislike me when I get old? When my chest muscles, biceps, abdominal muscles, and thigh muscles are all loose, and my butt is no longer curvy, will you still like me?"
Jiang Danhe was almost writing the words "you'll eat my body" on his face. Xiaoguo looked around shyly. Even though she knew there was no one around, she was still completely shocked by him.
In Jiang Shanhe's heart, is she just a woman who wants his body? !
It seems... That's right, I really like it...
He coughed awkwardly twice, "Of course not, I love you. Even if you lose all your hair and teeth in the future, I will still love you."
Jiang Shanhe suppressed his trembling body and looked at her deeply, "Say it again."
"I said that I love you. No matter if you have hair, teeth, or muscles, I still love you and will continue to love you."
Before she could finish the last sentence, Jiang Shanhe leaned over and covered her mouth.
When Xiaoguo was knocked down by him, he was still wondering if there was anyone around.
–
Time flies, and Xiaoguo basically no longer cares about the store's affairs. With Shu Botong around, she really has less to worry about.
Shu Botong is truly a genius. He has devoted himself to researching many new varieties of desserts. He always sends them to her to try. As long as she nods, he will immediately put new ones on the market.
Whenever Xiaozhu and Yuling had time to rest, they would run back to see her, sometimes bringing with them the bellybands or pants they had embroidered for their unborn children.
Qin Anming would come back every now and then to buy some fish or old hens for Xiaoguo, and meet with Jiang Danhe in the kitchen to discuss cooking methods.
Ruyi would occasionally come here with Qin Anming, or bring Linglong Fuer, Xiao Cui, Xu Shu and a few others. They would always bring some seasonal fruits, and each fruit had a meaning, like eating grapes would make children have big eyes, eating apples would be nutritious, and so on.
Su Changsheng was the same. Although she was not around, she never left anything behind. Every time she went to get milk, she would ask someone to bring her some snacks, such as sour and sweet dried fruits, for her to enjoy in her spare time.
Shao Zhan bought all the bird's nests and Ganoderma lucidum for her during her pregnancy, as if they were free, and shipped them to her. Xiao Guo thought it was not so good at first, as it would be great if he kept so many good things. But Shao Zhan said in a letter that there were plenty in the national treasury, so she could keep them without worry, as they were not only for her own good intentions, but also for Xiao Yi's.
Mrs. Yang would also make her some special soft and close-fitting clothes. During pregnancy, the body would feel various discomforts, especially as the belly grew bigger and heavier. Wearing the clothes she made would directly cover the belly, and the whole person would feel much more relaxed.
When Confucius and his wife heard that she was pregnant, they were experienced people who knew that she would be sleepy, so they sent her a rocking chair that Confucius had woven himself early on so that she could lie on it and take a comfortable nap.
At this moment, Xiaoguo was lying on a rocking chair with a pile of fruit snacks on the table. She was watching Jiang Danhe squeezing milk leisurely, and occasionally she would chuckle, which earned her a helpless look from the other party, and she would laugh even more happily.
She will never forget the expression on someone's face when he squeezed milk for the first time. It was indescribable, awkward and cute. She even approached him eagerly to ask him how he felt after squeezing, but he teased her instead.
Jiang Shanhe went from being clumsy and not knowing how to start to being able to handle it with ease and expressionless face now. I believe only he himself can understand the rough journey he has gone through in his heart.
–
Spring and autumn are the two least noticeable seasons. As soon as the weather starts to feel cold, winter arrives quietly.
Xiaoguo was already nine months into her pregnancy. In the last month, Jiang Shanhe never left her side, even staying by her side when she went to the toilet, and would not leave no matter what she said.
He invited Grandma Weng from the county and had her live in his house a long time ago. She was recommended by Shao Zhan. Grandma Weng used to work in the palace. When she retired and got old, she returned to Yonghai County with her husband's family.
She has been in the industry for over 40 years, and all the children she has taken care of are 100% full of energy and vitality, and the adults are also healthy. Shao Zhan himself was taken care of by her. He has worked in the palace for 40 years and is experienced and able to deal with all kinds of problems.
It's not that he doesn't trust the village midwife, but he doesn't want Xiaoguo to take any risks.
In the following days, Qin Anming and Zhuangzhuang came back early to look after Xiaoguo.
There was no empty room at home, so Qin Anming stayed at Yang Dasao's house, sharing a room with Yang Jia. During the day, he and Jiang Shanhe took turns staying by her side.
Xiaoguo thought the two were too exaggerated, so Zhuangzhuang also became like them. Since returning home, his big eyes have never left her side.
Just like that, as the others waited patiently, Xiaoguo's stomach started to growl.
