Bai Jiaojiao did not refute this statement. She also knew that she needed to eat a little more for the sake of her child.
The couple conceived this child following the textbook method; Bai Jiaojiao was practically an expert, spending all her time at home researching dietary supplements.
"It's so hot today."
Although there was an electric fan at home, Shen Heng was afraid that it would hurt Bai Jiaojiao, so he manually took a palm-leaf fan and led her to cool off under the shade of a tree.
It's summer vacation now, and Bai Jiaojiao doesn't have any classes, so she can stay home and rest during her pregnancy.
Shen Heng stopped going anywhere and stayed by Bai Jiaojiao's side, not leaving her side for even a moment. Jian Shao saw that he was a hopeless romantic and didn't say much. After all, it was his first time being a father, and staying by his wife's side was the right thing to do.
When the month came, the two went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup. The baby inside Bai Jiaojiao was already formed, but it was small and not very noticeable in her belly.
After three months, the pregnancy was considered stable. Bai Jiaojiao could feel the fetus in her womb closely connected to her, and she was no longer as worried as before.
When Bai Jiaojiao went to the Yang family for dinner that day, Du Ying looked at Bai Jiaojiao carefully and said, "Jiaojiao, your aunt thinks your face looks a little rounder lately, and your complexion is better too."
Bai Jiaojiao touched her face; it seemed that her many days of nourishing her body had been very effective.
She really didn't experience any morning sickness at all, and her appetite was even much larger than before.
"Yes, I'm here today to tell everyone this."
As soon as Bai Jiaojiao placed her hand on her stomach, everyone knew what she was about to say.
However, a great deal of uncertainty still lingered in their hearts, and they all looked at Bai Jiaojiao with excitement, waiting for her to speak.
"I'm pregnant. I went to the hospital for an X-ray last time, and I'm already three months along. The baby is very healthy."
"Sis, really?!" Yang Fenglin nearly jumped for joy. He hadn't expected such good news. "You're pregnant! Do you want me to help you take care of Dou Dou?!"
"......"
"Get out of here!" Yang Changping kicked Yang Fenglin without holding back, and Yang Fenglin hopped around with one leg wrapped around his knee.
Grandpa Yang's arms trembled with excitement: "Great news, very good news!" The old man loved having many descendants. "If you two can't handle it, then have your uncle and aunt help out."
"My aunt still has to go to work every day. I've already applied for a leave of absence from school, so I have more free time. It's okay, Grandpa."
Bai Jiaojiao originally planned to apply for a year's leave of absence, but because her year was admitted in winter, which is half a year different from other grades, if she took a leave of absence and repeated a year, she would have to wait another year and a half.
However, Bai Jiaojiao calculated that it was just right. She could take a year off after giving birth and stay at home to take good care of her child.
Du Ying said, "If you need anything, just tell us. Don't be shy."
Yang Changping said, "I'll find out which hospital does this well for you, and I'll give them a heads-up beforehand."
Yang Fenglin said, "Doesn't my sister know more about this than you do? Her teachers and classmates all know more than we do."
Yang Changping looked at his rebellious son: "What's it to you? You old bachelor!"
Yang Fenglin was left speechless after being scolded: "So what if I'm single? Being single isn't illegal!"
Go cool off somewhere else.
Yang Changping shooed Yang Fenglin aside and continued to fawn over Bai Jiaojiao.
Yang Fenglin didn't like staying at home either, so when no one paid attention to him, he drove off by himself.
I arrived at Qi Yunjie's workplace with ease and found that she was indeed still working there on the weekend.
Qi Yunjie has a neat short haircut, and her face is as simple and pure as her name.
Just like Qi Yunxin, he rarely smiled.
"You're always so busy, what are you busy with?"
Qi Yunjie looked up at him, but didn't say anything, and continued looking at the documents in her hand.
"I have some secrets about your brother. Do you want to know?"
"In no mood."
Qi Yunjie is long past the age of controlling her younger brother. Qi Yunxin is already twenty-one and can do whatever he wants. She doesn't have the time to bother with him.
Yang Fenglin didn't mind her cold attitude and said directly, "Old Qi has taken a liking to my sister. Hey, do you know that my aunt's daughter has been found? Old Qi should have gone back and told you, right?"
"You've taken a liking to your sister?" Qi Yunjie finally looked up. "I heard Yunxin mention it. No wonder. He said your cousin is beautiful and eloquent. He's been praising her to the skies at home. I've never heard him say so much in my life."
"Can my sister talk as well as I do? Why didn't he like me? He's just blinded by lust! My sister is really beautiful." Yang Fenglin wanted to tell Qi Yunjie the seriousness of the matter.
Qi Yunjie asked doubtfully, "How pretty could she be?"
"She's exceptionally beautiful!" Yang Fenglin felt that although aesthetic standards differed, no one could disagree that Bai Jiaojiao was beautiful.
"But even then, people might not be interested in him."
Qi Yunjie, on the other hand, knew Qi Yunxin very well and disliked him.
"This isn't a matter of whether you like it or not. Qi Yunjie, let me tell you, this time Old Qi is really in big trouble."
Yang Fenglin then told Qi Yunjie about Qi Yunxin's insistence on liking Bai Jiaojiao even after learning that she was married.
He had figured it out over time; although Qi Yunxin verbally agreed, he was still up to no good.
Qi Yunxin had never offered to come to his house before, but these past few months, whenever he came home, he would ask if Bai Jiaojiao was coming.
He and Qi Yunxin practically grew up together, so how could he not see through Qi Yunxin's thoughts?
But his sister is pregnant, so it's obvious that the young couple is very happy together.
To stir things up?
His brother-in-law could really mix their brains together.
“My sister already has a child, so there’s basically no chance of breaking them up. Your family has a history of such behavior. Our Aunt Yu is still unmarried, right? Old Qi, you need to be careful with this. Don’t let him end up a bachelor for life.”
Yang Fenglin wanted to help Qi Yunxin and also wanted to find an excuse to visit Qi Yunjie.
Qi Yunjie's brows furrowed deeper as she listened: "Why would he fall for your cousin?"
"My sister is beautiful!"
"Just being pretty isn't enough to make him like this." Qi Yunxin has been surrounded by beautiful girls all his life, hasn't he?
Yang Fenglin replied sincerely, "No, my sister is exceptionally beautiful!"
"......"
"If you don't believe me, go back and ask your dad. He must have seen my aunt, right? My cousin looks exactly like my aunt! Really exactly the same. You can ask the older generation how beautiful my aunt is."
After Yang Fenglin finished speaking, he wanted to say a few more words, but Qi Yunjie knew he was a chatterbox, so she kicked him out before he could even open his mouth.
"Qi Yunjie, are you discarding me after you've served your purpose? I just told you such important news, and you're already in a hurry to get rid of me?"
"I've been very busy lately, I'll thank you when I have time later."
Qi Yunjie felt she needed to talk to her family and then bring Qi Yunxin back for a talk.
"You said it, you have to remember that, you can't go back on your word!"
Yang Fenglin had no choice but to leave, Qi Yunjie wanted to get rid of him, and there was nothing he could do about it.
