The next morning, after dinner, the family came to the department store. Looking at the prosperity in front of them, Xia Wen couldn't help but sigh that Beijing is indeed a place that people yearn for.
Mother Lu is now buying a pair of silver bracelets for Ningning, so she went to the silver shop first. Looking at the dazzling array of bracelets, she couldn't make up her mind for a moment.
"Wenwen, do you think that one is pretty? We are old now, and we are just looking at fireworks."
Xia Wen walked over and looked for half an hour before finally picking out three pairs. Two pairs had similar patterns. One pair had "innocent" written on it, another pair had "lively and cute" written on it, and the other pair was simple, with no pattern and a square shape, and "peace and joy" written on it.
"Mom, I think these pairs look great, and I've never seen this style before. They must be new and fashionable."
Mother Lu couldn't choose among these three pairs. After thinking for a while, she said, "Why don't we buy all three? Wanwan gets one pair, and Wanwan's friend seems to have given birth to a pair, and the remaining pair will be left for you."
Xia Wen said that she suspected her mother-in-law was trying to force her to have a baby, but it didn't seem like it. "Mom, let's not have ours for now. If it's a son, we won't need it."
"But what should we do if we like all of these couples?"
"How about we take two pairs? The patterns on those two pairs are similar anyway, so just pick the one you like."
"That's fine too. You can come back and buy it for your children later."
In the end, I chose Peace and Joy and Innocence, thinking that I would let Wanwan see which one she liked and give the other pair to her friend.
After buying the bracelets, today's task is almost done. All that's left is to stroll around. The two women stroll around like crazy, and the two men follow silently behind carrying things. They hardly even say a word all the way. If you talk too much, it's easy to make mistakes, and if you make a mistake, you're likely to get scolded. So they just have to carry the things obediently.
It was just that they seemed to have underestimated women's shopping ability. They were still shopping in the afternoon, with no sign of going to eat. They were exhausted, but they were still shopping excitedly. Don't women get tired when they go shopping? They were tired and hungry.
Lu Mufan felt that shopping was more tiring than running five kilometers, and even less than ten kilometers was not as tiring.
"Dad, is Mom always this excited when she goes shopping? I seem tired and hungry."
"Who says not? This is the first time I've noticed she's so good at shopping after all these years of marriage."
"Should we remind them that it's time to eat?"
Lu Jianguo looked at Lu Mufan as if he were a fool and asked, "How about you go and remind him?"
Lu Mufan thought of his mother scolding him and said, "Dad, I'm just talking. Let's continue."
Mother Lu noticed that the two of them hadn't caught up, and she shouted, "What are they doing?"
"Hurry up, you two. What are you wasting time on? How long will it take you to finish shopping like this?"
The two people responded and hurried over, "Here we come."
"It's getting late, let's finish shopping and go eat."
Lu Jianguo and Lu Mufan showed happy expressions when they heard about eating. It was finally time to eat. They didn't walk around for long before they went to eat. Lu Mufan felt that today's meal was the most delicious. He was starving.
"Eat slowly, Mu Fan. You're like a starving ghost. I haven't given you any food in a few days."
Lu Mufan, who was tagged, stopped eating frantically and started eating elegantly.
"Mom, didn't I learn this in the army? It's a habit no matter where I am."
After finishing his meal and returning home, Lu Mufan lay down on the bed, feeling like he had survived a disaster. Shopping with a woman was too scary, but he was happy to accompany his wife no matter how hard it was.
"Brother Mu Fan, are you very tired?"
"It's okay. I'll take you around next time."
"You're obviously very tired. I thought you'd never go shopping with us again?"
"Do you want to try whether I'm tired or not?"
"Brother Mu Fan, I won't pay attention to you if you continue like this."
"It's not that my parents are pushing me too hard."
Xia Wen stopped talking. She had the feeling, consciously or unconsciously, that her mother-in-law and the others were always urging her to have a baby. In fact, she also liked children very much.
"I like children, too."
"Then I'll work really hard, so you have to cooperate?"
"I know, but it's daytime now."
"You can't see it if you draw the curtains."
It was the first time for the two of them to do this during the day. They were excited and full of stimulation. They were a little scared, afraid that their parents would knock on the door, but also a little bit expectant.
This time, Xia Wen really cooperated with him. No matter what he asked for, Xia Wen followed him, without getting tired or stopping, just constantly asking for more.
After everything was over, Lu Mufan said helplessly, "Wenwen, it turns out you lied to me before. It made me endure so much hardship. You have to compensate me."
"It's because you do it every day that I do that."
"Then I'll give you a day off next time, but you have to satisfy me like you just did."
Thinking of the scene just now, Xia Wen blushed and agreed.
But they didn't expect that the crazy afternoon would actually make Xia Wen pregnant.
Dinner was prepared by the nanny, with four dishes and one soup, a standard family meal.
Because the second question required us to climb a mountain, I didn’t go there after dinner. I just watched TV at home and went to bed early.
The next day, after having dinner and taking a few bottles of water, the family arrived at the foot of the mountain.
"Mu Fan, you take Wenwen and go first. Your dad and I will follow slowly and go down the mountain when we meet you. We are not planning to reach the summit."
One reason is that they are old and don’t want to move too high. The other reason is to give young people space to be alone, as they will not feel comfortable following them.
After climbing more than halfway, Xia Wen was too tired to walk anymore.
"Brother Mu Fan, I'm so tired I can't walk anymore."
"You can't walk anymore. Where did the energy you had when you were shopping yesterday go?"
"I'm really tired. My legs are weak."
