Chapter 116 New Year's Day

When Xu's mother and the others came back from watching the movie, Xiao Qingru and Xu Muzhou had already boiled the water.

The dumplings can be eaten after being boiled in the pot.

"Mom, I'm still very full now, I can only eat five at most."

Xiao Huaishu and the others also said that it would be fine to just eat ten just to show their appreciation.

"Okay, I'll eat half, and we'll eat the rest tomorrow."

It's freezing cold this season, so putting the dumplings outside will keep them frozen.

Dumplings are quick to cook, and they're ready in ten minutes.

Xu's mother poured a dish of vinegar for each of them, "It tastes better when you dip it in vinegar."

After eating the hot dumplings, the chill brought in from outside completely disappeared.

After cleaning up the dishes, it was only ten o'clock.

"We are old now, we have stayed up all night, if you want to stay up all night, you can arrange it yourself."

There are so many recreational activities these days, and everyone agreed that it would be better to go back to the room and sleep instead of just staring blankly.

Thinking about making an appointment with Fang Yingqiu to go out and play the next day, Xiao Huaishu wanted to stay up even more.

So, after washing up, everyone went back to their rooms.

Because they had indulged themselves too much the night before, Xu Muzhou and Xiao Qingru just chatted under the covers that night.

"My parents only have one week off for the annual leave. When they get back from their leave, the doctors in the hospital should be back to work one after another. We will go check it out then."

Xiao Qingru nodded, "That's what I planned too."

Even if she does give birth to a child, she still has to take care of her body, otherwise she will be the one who suffers in the future.

Xu Muzhou placed his palm on Xiao Qingru's belly. He no longer had any thoughts of having children.

As long as his daughter-in-law is healthy and free from illness or misfortune, he will be satisfied.

"By the way, I'm planning to order some milk for my parents. I think someone in our area should be able to deliver it, right?"

"Send it, leave it to me."

"Okay, I'll take care of it then."

Xu Muzhou nodded. He had thought about ordering milk for his parents before, but they refused him on the grounds that it was their drinking habit.

Now it's my daughter-in-law's idea, I think they will be too resistant.

Drinking milk is a habit, so using it to steam steamed buns can not only supplement nutrition but also make the buns taste better.

He touched the back of Xiao Qingru's head and said, "Go to sleep quickly. You have to go out and play tomorrow, so you need to get enough rest."

"Um."

She comfortably put her legs on Xu Muzhou's legs and rested her head on his shoulders, falling asleep.

Although I didn't do anything that day, I was still very tired. After five minutes, Xiao Qingru fell asleep.

Xu Muzhou was afraid that she would have neck pain the next day, so he adjusted her sleeping position and let Xiao Qingru lie on his chest.

Maybe I let him off too much, and the man in his sleep didn't wake up the whole time.

Xu Muzhou put one arm around Xiao Qingru's shoulders and the other around her slender waist, and fell asleep immediately after her.

Men have a lot of internal energy, and it is so comfortable to be warm in the quilt.

However, if two people hug each other for a long time, their bodies will feel sore and painful.

Xiao Qingru let Xu Muzhou go.

Just as she moved a little to the side of the bed, Xu Muzhou caught up with her and hugged her from behind.

Both of them felt relaxed in this position, and after just a few seconds, they fell asleep again.

On the morning of the first day of the New Year, at about 12 o'clock, some people were setting off firecrackers.

Xiao Qingru dived into Xu Muzhou's arms, trying to block out the sound of firecrackers.

Xu Muzhou had already woken up and was amused by Xiao Qingru's dazed look.

He immediately held her in his arms and covered her ears.

But after a while of struggling, Xiao Qingru finally woke up.

The sound of firecrackers increased and decreased, without end.

Xu Muzhou asked her, "Do you want to put some cotton in your ears? It should help."

"Then give me some."

There was a bag of ready-made cotton in the cupboard, weighing about half a pound. Xu's mother had put it there specially for them, fearing that her daughter-in-law might need it someday.

I put two cotton balls in my ears, and the noise outside disappeared instantly.

Xiao Qingru hugged Xu Muzhou's waist and said, "Call me when it's time."

"It's still early, sleep well."

Other people's daughters-in-law may have to get up early in the morning to cook.

But they are needed by the Xu family.

The two elders are good-tempered and think that we should rest more during the holidays and there is no need to get up too early in the morning.

In order to let them sleep well, unless there were special circumstances, the Xu couple would basically get up at dawn.

On the first day of the new year, I made an appointment to go out and play with Fang Yingqiu.

After breakfast, Xiao Huaishu went back to his room to take care of himself.

This was the first time Xiao Qingru had seen someone so nervous.

I couldn't help but ask Xu Muzhou: "Were you like this before?"

Xu Muzhou blushed, "I think so."

I saw her washing her hair and taking a shower before because she was sweating from training, and if she cleaned herself up she would look sloppy.

Changing clothes is a sign of respect for lesbians.

Xu Muzhou thinks he is quite normal, unlike Xiao Huaishu, who is extremely exaggerated.
