Ji's mother repeatedly reminded Xihe that she had no choice but to tell Ji Changqing about it.
She felt a little embarrassed. Although Ji's mother didn't say anything to her and treated her warmly and naturally, Xia Luo was her cousin in name only. What she had done had brought shame to the Xia family.
Ji Changqing said calmly, "She is she, you are you, don't think too much."
The next day at the training ground, he found Ji Changye and asked him directly if he had given the money to Xia Luo?
Ji Changye kept saying other things but refused to admit it. Under Ji Changqing's cold stare, he nodded reluctantly and explained hurriedly: "Luo'er just arrived and has no money. I helped her, but she is now working hard to find a job and will soon have money."
"Brother, talk to Mom and I'll send the money back next month."
Ji Changqing twitched his lips. Is it that easy to find a job? This brother is like someone has cast a spell on him. He protects Xia Luo in every possible way. Even eight bulls can't pull him back.
He simply said, "Mom told me to leave you half and send the other half back."
Ji Changye immediately cried out: "But I..."
Ji Changqing turned and left.
Ji Changye was immediately furious, but he didn't dare to resist his brother. He thought that thirty-five yuan should be enough, so he didn't argue.
Xia Luo was completely unaware of this. Since she came to the army with Ji Changye, except for some setbacks at the beginning, they were all resolved by Ji Changye, and her life has been smooth sailing.
She went to the market to buy vegetables in the early morning, did housework in her free time, and prepared food in the evening and waited for Ji Changye.
She was indeed looking for a job, but it was much harder to find work in the city than she had imagined. Even jobs like washing clothes were hard to come by. Other jobs required knowledge and skills, which she did not have, so she had to put her plans on hold for the time being.
However, she spoke and acted briskly, and got along well with the young wives in the neighborhood.
In the evening, Ji Changye arrived as scheduled. From a distance, several young wives bumped into her shoulders and smiled, "Your man is here."
Xia Luo blushed, but did not deny it. She casually picked up the insole in her hand and walked up to him.
After returning to the yard and closing the door, Xia Luo went to serve the rice. Soon, the two began to eat vegetables, meat, and rice. Ji Changye was very satisfied and praised Xia Luo for her good cooking skills.
Xia Luo's face was full of smiles, but when Ji Changye gave her the money after the meal, her brows immediately frowned.
She counted carefully, once, twice, and it was still thirty, but wasn't it more than sixty in the previous two months?
"Changye, have you had any big expenses recently?" she asked with a smile.
She knew how much Ji Changye's salary was, seventy. Although not as much as Ji Changqing's, it was much better than that of an ordinary person.
Ji Changye gave her sixty yuan in the past two months. He used part of it to pay rent, part of it to buy groceries, and the remaining few dollars were his change, so she didn't ask. But why was there suddenly so much less this time?
Xia Luo immediately felt a sense of crisis and stared at Ji Changye closely.
Ji Changye leaned against the bed. The house they rented was not big. Besides the bed, there was a table, a stool and a wardrobe. He felt tired after dinner and felt particularly comfortable lying on the bed.
"I sent half back to Mom. She asked me about it a while ago."
His mouth was a little dry, so he instructed Xia Luo: "Pour me a glass of water."
Xia Luo: “…”
She clenched her palms, stood up and poured him a glass of water.
Watching Ji Changqing drink it, Xia Luo sat down on the edge of the bed, a little nervous: "Mom, what did my aunt say?" She bit her lip, frowned, and looked very embarrassed.
Ji Changye curled his lips and pulled her into his arms: "It's probably Xia He who filed the complaint!"
Xia Luo's heart sank. Ji Changye cursed a few times, but didn't care much about it. After all, his mother saved the money for him and wouldn't spend it recklessly.
"Forget it, never mind. She will give it to us when we get married."
With the person in his arms, Ji Changye couldn't control himself and kissed and touched her.
Xia Luo clenched her cheeks. How could she let it go? Ji's mother was not satisfied with her and was trying to get Ji Changye to marry someone else. How could she possibly give it to her in the future?
She was thinking in her mind, but the kiss on her neck made her breath a little disordered.
"Lolo..."
Ji Changye's breathing became increasingly heavy.
Xia Luo's heart moved, and the hand against his chest gradually relaxed. If they had a child...
When Xihe saw Xia Luo again, he was a little dazed.
It was a bright spring day outside, with swallow kites flying in the sky and the sound of children's laughter coming from the room. Two people were sitting opposite each other in the room.
Xia Luo was wearing a well-fitting Dacron dress, with one hand gently placed on her lower abdomen.
She looked proud and said, "This is malted milk. It's said to be very nutritious. You should try it."
Xihe: “…”
At this time, Ji Changqing and Ji Changye were standing in the yard, talking about something.
But Ji Changye lowered his head, as if allowing his brother to scold him, while Ji Changqing's face was a little dark and he looked very impatient.
Xihe glanced at the two of them, then looked away and stared at Xia Luo's hand.
"Are you pregnant?"
Xia Luo was not at all flustered and nodded calmly: "Two months."
Xihe hissed and gave a thumbs up: "Great." She was so proud of herself.
Xia Luo felt that they were family after all and didn't dare to report her, so she was so arrogant, right? Xihe gritted his teeth secretly, feeling indescribably disgusted.
She always thought that Xia Luo had a miserable life in her previous life, so she tolerated her in everything, but in the end, this is it?
She got pregnant before marriage and forced the Ji family to accept her.
Is she stupid?
Xihe wanted to ask this.
But Xia Luo felt that she was jealous of her.
After all, Xihe and Ji Changqing had been married for almost a year, but there was no sign of pregnancy. She must have been extremely anxious. She felt extremely happy.
What's the point of marrying Ji Changqing? She still can't have children!
"Mom and the others should be here soon. You can't just lie in bed every day and do nothing. As a daughter-in-law, you should be more diligent."
She didn't answer Xihe, but instead taught her not to be too lazy.
Xihe stared at her and sneered for a moment: "Xia Luo, you're done, do you know that?"
Xia Luo didn't take it seriously, smiling tolerantly and cheerfully: "Xia He, you should think about how to explain to Mom that you're still pregnant. You've been married for quite some time."
She believed that Xihe was jealous that she got pregnant earlier than her.
Xihe raised his lips. As expected, even if he was reborn, he would still be stupid.
She was too lazy to pay attention to her and lowered her head to continue reading her book. After the two left, she didn't even ask Ji Changqing what to do about this matter. She knew very well that Xia Luo had made a bad move.
Sure enough, not long after, she heard that Ji Changye had been expelled from the military.
When Ji Changqing came back, Xihe asked him, "Are you okay?"
Ji Changqing held her hand and said, "We may have to go back to our hometown too."
Xihe blinked, then a smile appeared on her face: "Just right, I miss grandma too."
Although Ji Changqing's punishment hadn't come down yet, Xihe had already started packing. Just as he had finished organizing his books, the door banged open and Xia Luo rushed in with disheveled hair. She slapped him in the face and said, "Did you tell on me?"
