The in-laws' family is small, just the two of them, but our own family is large. They can carry each other for a while without feeling tired. The question is, can Erdan and his wife handle it?
Auntie Er rubbed her neck and put down the small clothes in her hand: "Erdan and his wife are still like children. I don't trust them to take care of the child."
"That's right. I heard from the third brother that when these two get busy working, they're so focused on their work that they might not sleep all night. How could they forget about their child?"
Don't think this is a joke, those two are really capable of doing it. Once, the two of them rode their bicycles back home, but on the way back, they completely forgot about the bicycles. That's how they managed to leave them at home. If they had been outside, they would have been lost long ago.
They're fine as long as they can take care of themselves; I wouldn't dare leave them to look after the child alone.
Qian Xiao and Sun Kaicheng had no idea how unreliable they were in the eyes of their elders, yet they still thought highly of themselves.
During the Spring Festival, Sun Kaicheng and Qian Xiao planned to go back to the capital to visit Sun Kaicheng's parents. If she were to give birth, she would have no chance to go back. However, since the baby was still in her belly, she could still move around easily.
The two sets of grandparents stopped them. What a joke! It's been over seven months, and they're not worried about anything happening on the road? Look at them, how can you trust them to take care of the child?
"Where are you going? You're so pregnant! What if something happens on the road? Just stay home and behave yourself." If Grandma Qian hadn't seen that her granddaughter was so pregnant, she would have slapped her right away. Why is this child getting more and more troublesome as she gets older?
Grandma Zhou always spoke gently: "Yes, we won't go. We'll go back and visit when the children are older. Your parents will definitely understand. It's too cold to go out in this weather. Grandma will make sure you have a good meal at home."
Qian Xiao isn't that kind of stubborn person; if she's not allowed to go, she won't go. To be honest, she really doesn't like going out in the dead of winter.
Sun Kaicheng naturally puts his wife first, and he would never do anything that would be bad for her: "Then I won't go. I'll call home tomorrow to let you know."
"You're really not going?"
"I won't go. Let's wait until you give birth. I also feel that the long car ride is not safe."
"Alright, shall we go up the mountain and take a look tomorrow?"
Grandma Qian couldn't hold back any longer and slapped Qian Xiao on the back: "You better stay home and behave yourself. Are you a monkey reincarnated? How come you can't sit still for a moment?"
Grandma Zhou found it funny; it was obvious that the two of them were living a good life and had a good relationship. It seemed like their ages had increased backwards after they got married.
"No, we're not going. Grandma will stew duck for you tomorrow. The ducks Grandma raises are really fat."
"Grandma, let's not eat anymore. Let the duck continue laying eggs. Salted duck eggs are delicious too." Not killing the duck ensures sustainable development. Killing it might provide a quick and satisfying meal, but then the duck eggs will be gone.
"I'll listen to you, then I won't kill them. Grandma will pickle all those duck eggs and save them for you to eat alone."
During the Chinese New Year, besides eating, drinking, and visiting each other, it's over in just a few days. Before you've had enough fun, it's time to go back to work.
The couple decided not to do anything else before having the baby, and would just wait until their child was born.
Qian Xiao sat in the office chair she had modified. The chair was much wider than before, and she had stuffed some cotton in it to make it more comfortable to lean back in.
She was sleeping soundly with a small blanket covering her body. Now, she is not needed for work trips. She just comes to the office all day, eats on time, takes a nap after eating, and then it's time to go home.
It was still cold outside, but Qian Xiao was sitting in a great spot. The sun was shining in through the window, making her feel warm. The person who was sleeping soundly suddenly opened her eyes, still looking around with a dazed expression.
It took her a while to come to her senses. She rubbed her face with her hands. She had just dreamt that when she went to the toilet, she accidentally gave birth to her child in the latrine, which terrified her.
Touching her bulging belly, she knew her due date was just around the corner. She'd been having these kinds of dreams lately, making her hesitant to go to the bathroom.
Her stomach was so upset she couldn't hold it in any longer, so she slowly got up, deciding to go to the bathroom anyway, in case she couldn't hold it in any longer and just burst out—that would be ridiculous.
As soon as he stood up, he felt a warm flow. Qian Xiao's relatively calm face instantly froze. Damn it, I knew this dream wasn't a good omen. He'd lost control of his bladder. What was he going to do? There weren't any clean pants to change into.
She stood there, too afraid to move, looking down at her stomach. She had forgotten that she couldn't see her toes at all when she looked down, and she couldn't see if her pants were wet. How was she going to get out of here?
When Sun Kaicheng opened the office door, he saw his wife standing there blankly, motionless, with an indescribable expression on her face.
"What's wrong with you?" After the initial nervousness subsided, he would bring Qian Xiao to the office every day before going to work, and he no longer followed Qian Xiao around every step of the way.
Qian Xiao looked at Sun Kaicheng as if he were her savior: "You've finally come! Quick, help me think of a solution, I think I'm in trouble."
Sun Kaicheng looked completely bewildered: "What happened?"
Qian Xiao lowered her voice: "I think I wet my pants. What should I do? I'm too embarrassed to leave this house."
"Ah! Don't worry, I'll go back and get you a pair of pants. Can you wait here for me?"
Qian Xiao was about to nod in agreement when a sharp pain interrupted him. Sun Kaicheng saw his wife's rosy face turn deathly pale: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Qian Xiao took a deep breath and barely managed to get through the pain: "Um, I think my stomach hurts, am I going into labor?"
She now suspects that she didn't wet her pants, but rather that her water broke.
Sun Kaicheng's face turned pale instantly: "What? She's going into labor?" He was holding Qian Xiaoyi, who was like a headless fly, and panicked instantly.
"Why, why am I about to give birth?"
"What should we do? Honey, does your stomach hurt?"
Qian Xiao took a deep breath. This damn thing was even worse than herself. "Don't panic, quickly help me to the hospital." Luckily, she was wearing black pants today, otherwise, even if her stomach hurt more, she wouldn't have left this office.
"Yes, yes, don't panic, go to the hospital first. Honey, wait a minute, I'll go borrow a car to take you there," he said, then turned and ran out.
Taking advantage of the fact that her stomach wasn't hurting, Qian Xiao quickly packed her things. Otherwise, if she didn't take all the food with her after resting for more than a month, this place could become a kingdom of rats.
Just as they finished tidying up, Sun Kaicheng stumbled in: "Wife, shall I carry you out?"
Qian Xiao raised her hand to stop her, "Come on, you almost tripped while walking by yourself, what if you really fell?" "No need, I can walk by myself, you carry those things."
