The military parade ended successfully. Qi Siling and Xia Youyou invited familiar colleagues and classmates to the guesthouse and set up several tables.
The next day, Cao An took the gifts and went to Naru's house.
Qi Siling and Xia Youyou wanted to go and watch the fun, and Xiao Hai followed too.
Cao An was unusually shy and felt uneasy. "Go take a look at the newly renovated house. Don't bother me at someone else's house."
Xia Youyou rested her elbows on the middle of the bicycle handlebars and was a little surprised to see him like this.
"Brother, are you nervous?"
"No!" Cao An denied it flatly.
Xia Youyou didn't insist, "Don't worry, we won't follow you in. We'll just go over to the house and take a look."
The four courtyard houses they bought have been renovated. Although they will not live in them, simple repairs are still needed. If they need to use them in the future, it will not be so chaotic if they live in them temporarily.
Cao An's bicycle was hung with gifts. It was his son-in-law's first visit, and he was more nervous than he had imagined.
When Qi Siling first met them, nothing like this happened.
Tsk, what should I do if I get increasingly annoyed the more I look at it!
Qi Siling's attention was all on the little girl in his arms. Noticing Cao An's malicious gaze, he looked over.
"What's wrong?"
Cao An clenched his teeth and said, "How about I beat you up?"
Xia Youyou threw the dogtail grass she was playing with at Cao An, "What are you doing?"
Cao An was not expecting her move, and even Qi Siling was unable to react.
When he realized that his wife was defending him, he leaned over and kissed her little head again and again, completely ignoring the disdainful looks of Cao An and Xiao Hai.
Cao An was so disappointed, "Xia Youyou, you're turning your elbow outward now! I remember you said before that I was the most important person to you!"
Xia Youyou was not at all intimidated, "Yes, you are him, Xiao Hai brother is also, and mom is also!"
Qi Siling and Xiao Hai laughed. They felt very happy seeing Cao An being humiliated.
Because every time they are the only ones who get bullied, there is always someone to conquer, and only Xia Youyou can deal with Cao An!
They talked and laughed all the way, and no matter how nervous Cao An was, they finally arrived at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs dormitory.
Xia Youyou and the other two watched him go to the guard post at the gate and hid in a secluded place together.
Seeing Na Ru running out to greet him, Cao An finally smiled. He was obviously delighted to see his future wife!
After watching the two people go in from a distance, the three of them got on their bikes and went back inside.
The small courtyard was too dilapidated before and was not far from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs dormitory, only a few hundred meters away.
It will be here in a moment.
The first two buildings have one courtyard, while the last two buildings have two courtyards.
After a simple renovation, the yard looks brand new. The areas that can be retained have been repainted, and flowers and plants have been planted in the yard.
This is what Xia Youyou requested.
After looking around the first courtyard, I went to the second courtyard.
The building in the middle was Cao An's, and the one at the back was Xiao Hai's. They were similar in layout. There was a primary school across the street, and a middle school in the direction they had just come from. It would be very convenient for them to go to school when they got married and had children.
Because there is a public toilet behind the courtyard, sewage pipes are used to build separate toilets.
Xia Youyou felt that this location was really good. Considering their future life, living alone would be a good choice!
"Isn't there a large compound up ahead? If anyone wants to sell, I can buy some. I have ten at home, so I can prepare one for each of them."
Xia Youyou is now an absolute rich woman. She loves those boys very much and treats them like a mother. She considers everything for them.
Qi Siling was grateful for his daughter-in-law's generosity, but also felt a little guilty.
He always felt that he had no special abilities. Even when he helped her build the ghost system, it was she who led him to complete it. As for other advantages, he really had nothing to show off.
"You don't need to prepare anything for them. Our ancestors still have some."
Xia Youyou paused, feeling a little annoyed, and turned away, ignoring him.
Qi Siling sensitively noticed that his wife was angry and sent Xiao Hai away.
Xiao Hai was just about to go and take a look at his own yard, so he didn't say much, closed the door in front of them and went out.
"Youyou, what's wrong?" Qi Siling grabbed her arm.
Xia Youyou turned around and looked at him, "Why don't you need me to prepare? I'm not your family?"
Qi Siling hugged her in his arms, "Of course you are! You are my lifelong love, and we will be together forever."
Xia Youyou looked up at his affectionate eyes.
"Then why do you have to make such a clear distinction with me? Money is something you can't take with you when you are born and we don't have any children, so what's wrong with preparing something for them?" She was very open-minded. Now she had a lot of money and houses were cheap. With the Anhai factory, she would only become richer in the future. Why couldn't she buy a house for them?
Since Grandpa adopted them, he naturally had to be responsible for them. Moreover, they all had good character. You can tell a child's behavior by the age of three and a person's character by the age of seven. They are trustworthy.
Qi Siling's heart suddenly tightened, and the pain made him feel suffocated.
"I'm sorry, you bought it if you said so."
Xia Youyou looked at him strangely. Hadn't he just refused? Why did he suddenly agree? She was about to have a fight with him!
They had never had a quarrel since they got married. The only time he got angry was when I went to Yue State by myself, and he got angry in the hospital.
What happened this time? She hasn't said anything yet!
"What’s wrong with you?"
Qi Siling shook his head and pressed her little head into his arms.
Xia Youyou looked puzzled and raised her head forcefully.
"What's wrong with you?"
Qi Siling remained silent, but her heart was filled with mixed emotions. However, remembering what she had told her before, that she couldn't keep her thoughts to herself, she had to reorganize her words.
"Youyou, do you want a child?"
Now it was Xia Youyou's turn to be silent.
child?
She doesn't have this concept in her mind yet, because the people around her don't have that kind of baby, so she can't understand what it feels like to have a child.
Qi Siling thought that she wanted it, but was unwilling to accept it because of herself.
"Dear, if you want, can we do it later? You're still young now, only twenty years old, in the prime of your youth. Besides, we're not very stable at the moment. Let's consider it later when I can be with you wholeheartedly, okay?"
Seeing that she still didn't respond, Qi Siling let her go and held her little face.
"My dear, what are you thinking about?"
"I haven't thought about having children yet. Let's talk about it later." Xia Youyou said truthfully.
Qi Siling carefully observed the expression on her face and felt relieved when he was sure that she didn't seem to be reluctant.
"It's still early. According to later generations, 36 is considered an advanced maternal age. We still have more than ten years, so we can take it slow."
Xia Youyou nodded, agreeing with his statement. It was indeed too early to think about this now. Perhaps in the future, with advanced medical technology, a stent could be installed in the heart, so there would be no need to worry about the risks of childbirth.
Qi Siling held her in his arms again, feeling relieved. He was afraid that Xia Youyou would want to have a baby, and he couldn't stop her. If something happened to her, how would he live?
