Chapter 101 Xia Xia, have you gained weight recently?
The light in Haohao's eyes dimmed, but he said nothing.
She raised her head and smiled brightly: "It's okay, I know my godmother loves me."
That one sentence brought tears to Xu Zhixia's eyes.
After being godparents for so long, this is the first time Haohao calls her godmother.
Haohao was using his own way to reassure her not to worry.
Perhaps it was because of her pregnancy, the deepest corner of her heart was hit.
She held Haohao in her arms and blurted out subconsciously: "Haohao, you will always be my most important child."
Feeling the warmth from Xu Zhixia's body, Haohao was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily.
Ever since he was called as a parent last time, he never doubted it again.
Xu Zhixia calmed down and asked softly, "Does Haohao want a brother or a sister?"
Haohao said without hesitation: "I want a younger brother."
Meeting Xu Zhixia's puzzled gaze, he lowered his head and said awkwardly, "This way, no one will call me godmother..."
Although he is young, he is so precocious.
Xu Zhixia didn't feel scared, she just felt distressed.
Her voice softened a bit as she soothed him, "Okay, then godmother also hopes for a younger brother to keep you company."
As soon as he finished speaking, Haohao suddenly looked up, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
After telling Haohao about her pregnancy, Xu Zhixia did not hide it from Xu's father and mother and told them about it.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Xu were extremely surprised and started to prepare as quickly as Zhou An did.
Xu Zhixia was at a loss for words, and asked in confusion, "Isn't it too early to prepare now?"
Xu's mother disagreed and said, "What do you know, kid? You have to prepare diapers and other things in advance, otherwise there won't be enough when you come back."
"A child uses dozens of them a day."
Xu Zhixia was shocked. Thinking about the number, it seemed a bit outrageous.
The family's tense mood also affected her, and she tossed and turned at night.
Zhou An noticed the movement on her side and asked in a low voice: "Xia Xia, what's wrong?"
Xu Zhixia buried her head in Zhou An's chest, feeling the sound of his heartbeat, and did not speak for a long time.
Just when Zhou An was about to fall asleep, she suddenly said, "Zhou An, what if I can't be a good mother?"
Zhou An slowly opened his eyes, and the sleepiness in his eyes faded away.
His large, bony hand rested on Xu Zhixia's back, patting her soothingly. "You'll be a good mother."
The firm tone made Xu Zhixia's heart inexplicably calm down.
Zhou An continued, "Actually, when I was little, my parents were very busy, so it was Uncle Wu who raised me..."
His voice was full of charm as he slowly and leisurely told stories about his childhood.
Xu Zhixia was unknowingly fascinated by what she heard. It turned out that Zhou An also had such a naughty side when she couldn't see him.
It also made her feel at ease that even a mother is an independent individual even after she has a child.
"Later, I met a little girl who often wore two pigtails and had a sweet smile."
Xu Zhixia blinked, feeling that the girl sounded familiar.
She took advantage of the moment when she was half sitting up and pressed on Zhou An.
Zhou An chuckled and put his arms around her waist: "Yes, that's you."
"Do you know what I thought when I first saw you? How could there be such a beautiful girl in the world? I must marry her home in the future."
"You..." Xu Zhixia hesitated to speak, not knowing whether to say he was precocious or call him a beast.
Zhou An saw what she was thinking and explained, "Xia Xia, you have been special to me from the beginning."
"Don't worry about the future, I'm here."
Xu Zhixia paused, and her brows softened.
She buried her head in Zhou An's neck and responded in a low voice.
As if I had found my home, my anxious heart became calm.
When asked about the changes in Xu Zhixia's life after she became pregnant, she felt that the biggest change was that everyone seemed to treat her like a treasure.
Not only would I be scolded for a long time just for sweeping the floor.
Even writing articles has a time limit.
This made Xu Zhixia feel a little aggrieved and helpless.
Just when she was bored and could only bask in the sun in the yard, there was a knock on the door.
She was stunned for a moment, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Who is coming to see her at this time?
After thinking for a long time without figuring out what was going on, she simply got up and opened the door.
A familiar face appeared before her eyes, and she asked in surprise: "Yueyue, why are you here?"
Zhao Yue was holding an oil-paper bag in her hand, not knowing what was inside.
She pouted in dissatisfaction and complained, "You said you wanted to play with me last time, but it's been so long and there's still no news."
"You've simply forgotten me."
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her coquettish tone, but it did not make people feel disgusted.
Xu Zhixia smiled embarrassedly. She had indeed forgotten about this matter.
He quickly turned sideways and apologized, "It's my fault. You speak first."
Zhao Yue snorted lightly, walked in, and placed the oilcloth bag in her hand on the stone table in the courtyard.
"This is the new peach cake from the supply and marketing cooperative. I spent a lot of effort to grab this bag."
"Try it quickly, it smells really good."
Xu Zhixia was a little touched, but she didn't show it.
He readily agreed and carefully unpacked it.
After washing his hands, he picked up a piece, broke it in two, and handed one of the pieces to Zhao Yue.
"Yueyue, you eat too."
Zhao Yue didn't hesitate to take the other half and took a small bite. Her eyes narrowed immediately.
Xu Zhixia had the same expression, because the peach cake was so delicious.
It melts in your mouth and a rich aroma comes out.
The delicious taste brought by the combination of oil and sugar is unmatched by other foods.
The two of them quickly finished the peach cake and smiled at each other.
Only then did Zhao Yue turn her gaze to Xu Zhixia, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
After carefully considering his words, he said tactfully, "Xia Xia, have you gained weight recently?"
Xu Zhixia wore a loose white nightgown today, and her limbs were as slender as usual.
But before, her waist was so slender that it could be held in one hand, so Zhao Yue could tell the difference at a glance.
Zhao Yue was afraid that Xu Zhixia would think too much, so she comforted her, "It's okay, it's good to be a little fatter. It makes you look better."
These words were said sincerely. Xu Zhixia now gave her a different feeling, making people want to get close to her.
Seeing that Zhao Yue didn't realize she was pregnant and was trying to comfort her, Xu Zhixia couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Yueyue, why are you so cute?"
Zhao Yue's face flushed instantly, and she stammered, "No...no, why are you saying that suddenly?"
Xu Zhixia smiled with her eyebrows curved, leaned close to her ear, and whispered in a low voice: "I am pregnant."
