She didn't want to have other children while Da Bao and Xiao Bao believed they would never be abandoned by their third uncle and aunt.
On the other hand, the college entrance examination will be reinstated in a little over a year, and she is determined to take the exam and leave this place.
She didn't really want to go to school with a baby in her arms, as that wouldn't be good for either her or the child.
So it has to be just right to wait a few years.
only……
She hadn't told Xie Zhuo any of these things.
Xie Zhuo clearly loves children, as can be seen from how he treats his eldest and youngest children, but he never objected when she mentioned using contraception.
Xu Yan really didn't know what he was thinking.
She glanced at Xie Zhuo, not expecting that Xie Zhuo was also looking at her during a break from playing chess.
Seeing her turn her head to look this way, he smiled and winked at her.
Even after spending half a year together, Xu Yan still had to admit that Xie Zhuo was really handsome.
Even such a small movement could make her heart beat faster.
After the four of them got home, Da Bao and Xiao Bao couldn't wait to see the puppy. Xu Yan said that giving the puppy a name would make it easier to keep it, so Da Bao and Xiao Bao racked their brains to come up with a name for it.
Shout, happy.
Da Bao and Xiao Bao hope it can live a good life.
“Okay,” Xu Yan nodded from the side, “It’s fine as long as it’s not named ‘Living’.”
In the afternoon, Da Bao and Xiao Bao went to Li Aihua's house to play with Xiao Shuanzi for the whole afternoon. Before it got dark, Li Aihua came to her house to ask how Da Bao and Xiao Bao's hats were knitted.

As the lively day came to an end, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
Xie Zhuo went to Da Bao and Xiao Bao's room to check on the stove, then covered them with blankets before returning to his room.
Xu Yan had already gotten onto the kang (a heated brick bed) and was thinking about how to tell Xie Zhuo about having children a few years later when Xie Zhuo got onto the kang and hugged her.
"What's wrong?" Xie Zhuo asked.
"Hmm?" Xu Yan looked at him.
"Why do you look so preoccupied on the first day of the new year?" Xie Zhuo gently squeezed Xu Yan's hand.
Xu Yan was a little surprised, wondering how he had figured it out.
"Can you tell me about it?" Xie Zhuo looked at her, paused for a few seconds, and then asked, "Is it because of the child?"
Xu Yan was even more surprised.
"Did you hear me chatting with Aunt Yang?" Xu Yan asked.
"No," Xie Zhu shook his head. "When Mom wrote that letter the other day, you kept hesitating to say something. Today, when you were chatting with Aunt Yang, you kept looking in my direction, so I guessed it."
Xu Yan: "...Well, your guess was pretty accurate."
Xie Zhuo raised an eyebrow.
Xu Yan had been hesitant about how to broach the subject, but now that Xie Zhuo had brought it up, she seized the opportunity to ask, "So, what do you think?"
