Song Lili woke up very early the next morning; her biological clock had long been set. She was supposed to wake up at a certain time.
"Well……"
But why is my body so sore? It feels like I've been carrying wheat all day, and even moving is difficult.
She slowly rolled over, like a caterpillar, and paused for a moment when she could see her surroundings clearly.
Then, memories slowly returned, and she remembered that she got married yesterday, and this was the Zhang family home, not the Song family home.
Song Lili got anxious and immediately tried to get up. "Hiss..." Because of the sudden movement, she couldn't help but gasp.
"Damn it..." she couldn't help but curse, angrily punching the blanket next to her before hurriedly picking up her clothes and putting them on.
On the first day the new bride enters the family, she is supposed to make breakfast. I wonder if she's too late?
By the time she finished dressing, she was covered in sweat and felt sticky and uncomfortable.
However, time did not permit it, so she could only endure it and, supporting her limp legs, went out the door.
"Hmm, you're up?" Zhang Qinghua, who was in the yard, heard a muffled thud and turned around to see Song Lili coming out.
"Hmm..." Song Lili glared at him secretly before greeting Zhang Shengtian, "Big Brother, I'll go cook right away."
Zhang Shengtian said with a smile, "Lili, none of us in the family are good at cooking. We used to just make do with whatever we could find. Now we'll have to trouble you."
Zhang Aiai was the only girl in the family, so in the past, only Zhang Aiai could do the work, and no matter how well it turned out, it had to be made do.
Now that Zhang Shengtian has Song Lili, and her cooking skills are not bad, he feels very reassured about entrusting the task to her.
“Okay, I’ll take care of everything from now on,” Song Lili said with a smile.
Zhang Shengtian didn't stand on ceremony; instead, he made her feel relieved and much more relaxed. She smiled and went into the kitchen to wash up and cook.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you." Zhang Aiai also came in, wanting to assist Song Lili.
"No need, breakfast is simple and will be ready soon, no need for help."
Song Lili was already fast, so there was nothing she needed Zhang Aiai's help with.
"Well... alright then." In the end, Zhang Aiai could only back out, standing in the courtyard, somewhat lost, not knowing what to do.
She used to be in the kitchen. Now that someone has taken her place, she feels a little lost.
"Ai'ai, go tidy up the table, we're about to eat," Zhang Qinghua said from behind her.
He also noticed his sister's confusion and thought about finding her something to do.
"Oh, okay." Sure enough, Zhang Aiai seemed to have found her way and immediately went into the main room.
Seeing that no one was in the yard, Zhang Qinghua went into the kitchen and asked, "Wife, is there anything I can help you with?"
"You... why do you call me 'wife'?" The words "wife" made Song Lili's heart tremble again.
She used to think that the term "wife" was the one that best conveyed love.
Hearing Zhang Qinghua call her that, she blushed unexpectedly.
“We’re married, what else should I call you if I don’t call you my wife?” Zhang Qinghua didn’t know the reason behind this and looked at Song Lili with some confusion.
"Then... then it's up to you." Song Lili turned her head away, unable to bear it any longer, her heart still pounding, unable to calm down for a while.
"What do I need to do?" Zhang Qinghua asked with a smile, leaning closer and kissing Song Lili, his eyes sparkling.
"...Could you bring me the bowls and chopsticks?" Song Lili said with a reproachful look, then blushed.
She was still not quite used to these occasional intimate gestures. She used to be a typical straight man, and she was still a little uncomfortable with it.
Zhang Qinghua watched with amusement as Song Lili blushed again, finding it incredibly cute.
Lili wasn't like this before, but she's been very shy ever since yesterday.
But this made him love her even more, and a mischievous urge always lingered in his heart, a desire to tease her.
So, after putting down his bowl and chopsticks, Zhang Qinghua hugged Song Lili from behind, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.
Sure enough, Song Lili blushed again. "What...what are you doing? Let go of me right now, what if someone comes in?"
The smile in Zhang Qinghua's eyes deepened, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. "No way."
"Why not? Let go of me right now." Song Lili twisted her waist, trying to break free.
“Dad knows I’m in the kitchen, so he won’t let Qingguo and Ai’ai in. He’s just waiting to hold his grandson right now,” Zhang Qinghua said with a light laugh in Song Lili’s ear.
"Grand...grandson?" Song Lili was stunned. This...they're already pressuring her to have a baby the day after their wedding? Is it really necessary to be this fast?
"Yes, I'm quite old. People my age already have children who are running all over the village."
“Before, my dad was always looking forward to my marriage, and now that I’m finally married, of course he’s looking forward to me having a baby,” Zhang Qinghua continued to tease Song Lili.
"But...but isn't this too fast?" Getting married at eighteen was already beyond Song Lili's expectations, and having a child so early? Song Lili found it hard to accept.
She never thought about having a child right after getting married, but it seemed like a perfectly normal thing.
That's how people are these days; they get married and then have children, but...
Song Lili was caught in a dilemma, torn between her own insistence and her parents' expectations.
"Alright, alright, I was just teasing you," Zhang Qinghua quickly said, seeing Song Lili's troubled expression.
“My boss never mentioned this to me. I was just teasing you, don’t worry.”
But Song Lili didn't feel much relieved, because she knew in her heart that this was for sure.
Even if Zhang Qinghua said he was just joking, the probability of it happening is still very high.
"Lili?" Zhang Qinghua saw that Song Lili was still looking down, so he quickly let go of her, walked up to her, lifted her chin, and made her look at him.
"I was just saying that, I didn't mean to pressure you at all. Please listen to me when it comes to the child, okay?" Zhang Qinghua said helplessly.
He was incredibly annoyed; why did he suddenly bring up these upsetting things?
If I had known this would put pressure on Lili, I wouldn't have said anything.
"Alright, that's enough. Let's go eat." Song Lili glanced at Zhang Qinghua, who looked anxious, and said with a smile.
Forget it, let's not dwell on it anymore. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Let's wait until someone brings it up.
She's agonizing over this alone, but it's not going to lead to anything, and it's only making Zhang Qinghua feel bad too.
So I've stopped thinking about it. I'll just let things take their course and figure out a solution when they come. Worrying about it now is pointless.
