Uncle Guo never imagined that when he was young, he was on the edge of danger in Zijing City, and when he was old and enjoying his old age in the imperial capital, he would have such a big surprise.
Such a surprise is truly both sweet and a burden!
"Xuning, Linlang, are you here?"
Uncle Guo was wearing an apron. When he saw Ye Linlang and Xie Xuning enter the house, he asked them to sit down.
"Please sit down. Jining and his wife are on their way and will be here soon. Tonight is the winter solstice. Let's eat mutton and drink mutton soup."
Ye Linlang moved closer to Uncle Guo and asked with concern, "Uncle Guo, do you want me to help you?"
"You don't need to help me. I'm the one who invited you here, so I'll just lend a hand. Just sit down and wait for your food!"
Ye Linlang did not make any more pretentious excuses. Instead, she greeted Uncle Guo and went into the house to find Wen Wanjun.
Wen Wanjun is pregnant now, and Uncle Guo is pampering her even more.
She didn't do anything idle, but just sat quietly on the sofa, with her legs on a soft stool, knitting a sweater.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Wen Wanjun smiled and said, "I'm knitting a sweater for the baby in my belly!"
Wen Wanjun knows her own body very well.
If she could live to the age of Xie's ancestor, she would at least be able to watch the baby in her belly grow up.
But if she couldn't survive, she wanted to leave a memory for her children.
Of course, she didn't tell anyone about this idea, including Uncle Guo.
She just sat quietly on the sofa knitting a sweater.
She thought of knitting one for her child every year.
Start by knitting the ones for when you are young, and the styles should preferably be ones that can be worn by both boys and girls.
When the baby grows up a little, the B-ultrasound will probably tell whether it is a boy or a girl, and she can buy yarn and knit a sweater purposefully.
"Mom, don't get too tired. Knit for a while, then take a break and watch your eyes."
Wen Wanjun put down the sweater in her hand and said casually, "I was just bored and killed some time."
Wen Wanjun used to be in charge of the work at the welfare home.
Now that she is pregnant, she has transferred her work to other responsible colleagues and focused on taking care of the baby.
Wen Wanjun knew that she was so old and had to be careful about everything without Ye Linlang's reminder.
She needs to be more careful!
After all, she was looking forward to the birth of this child!
"Mom, how do you feel? Are you still having morning sickness?" Ye Linlang asked.
Wen Wanjun said, "I'm not vomiting anymore. What's strange is that I haven't vomited since I came back from Langyuan. Could it be that the baby in my belly also thinks we're back home?"
Ye Linlang covered her lips and smiled.
"Mom, Langyuan is also your home."
Wen Wanjun smiled and shook her head, saying, "Linlang, Langyuan is not my home. Langyuan is your and Xuning's home. I came to Langyuan as a guest. This is my home!"
Wen Wanjun is not the kind of vicious mother-in-law who can't stand seeing her son and daughter-in-law living a good life.
She knew that her son had grown up and would one day get married and start a family!
As a mother, she also needs to manage her own boundaries!
Respect Ye Linlang and Xie Xuning as a couple, and respect their small family.
"I've written a nutritious meal plan before. Ask Uncle Guo to prepare it for you." Ye Linlang's voice was soft and gentle. "Also, you need to exercise more regularly. You don't have to walk too far. Take your time. Rest when you're tired, and walk around when you feel refreshed. Sitting all the time isn't good for you."
