"...I wouldn't dare."
After a moment of silence with her lips pursed, the adorable little Wu shook her head.
"Good to know."
As Qin Boyan spoke, he got up to wash up.
"Brother..."
The little girl, Qin Yaxuan, called out to the adorable child, Xiao Wu.
Seeing the concern in her eyes, the adorable little boy, Xiao Wu, shook his head: "I'm fine, it was my fault just now." Even if the family was sitting together joking, he shouldn't have said that one person cared about him the most or felt sorry for him.
reason?
None of the siblings, including the eldest brother, could deny one thing—the eldest sister-in-law's contributions to the family and to each of them were entirely from the heart.
Or rather, the eldest sister-in-law cares about them and feels sorry for each of them.
He had just said something while playing around with his younger sister, which made his second brother, as if he had a handle on him, dangerously question him.
The adorable little Wu was now regretting his careless words. He even wondered if his beloved sister-in-law would be very sad if she heard the jokes he and his younger sister Xiao Liu made, and would think he was an ingrate.
"Hey bro, we were just kidding, don't take it to heart."
The young girl, Qin Yaxuan, comforted the adorable child, Xiao Wu.
Qin Yaqing sat to the side, looking at the two little ones with amusement and shaking her head. Then, her gentle voice came from her lips: "Alright, Xiao Wu, your second brother isn't criticizing you. He's just teasing you. You don't need to think too much about what he said!"
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides, even if my sister-in-law heard what you just said, she would never take it seriously."
The two little ones: "..." Does your sister-in-law really not take this seriously?
“Our sister-in-law is the smartest; how could she not tell that you and Xiao Liu were joking?!”
Without a doubt, Qin Yaqing said this to the adorable little boy, Xiao Wu.
"Big sister, I know you're trying to comfort me, but it's true that I said the wrong thing. Even if I was just joking with my sister, I can't deny that what I said made me sound like an ingrate to you and second brother."
I'm no longer a three-year-old child; I know very well that everyone in my family cares about me and loves me, especially after my mother passed away. My sister-in-law's care and love for me and my younger brother are absolutely meticulous.
Qin Yaqing smiled and gave the little guy a thumbs up: "Our fifth child is so good at using idioms, amazing!"
"Wow, this guy is amazing!"
The young girl, Qin Yaxuan, also gave it a thumbs up.
Little Wu, the adorable toddler, felt a little embarrassed. He avoided his older sister Qin Yaqing's smiling gaze and said, "I'm going to brush my teeth." He got up and quickly disappeared with his short legs.
Regardless of how much the adorable little Wu was agonizing over her mistake in the living room, and how she quickly avoided the two sisters out of embarrassment for their praise, Song Lan remained completely unaware in her husband Qin Yanzheng's room.
Of course, Qin Yanzheng was unaware of this either.
"What are you doing?"
Song Lan was gently pressed down by Qin Yanzheng to sit on the edge of the bed. She saw Qin Yanzheng kneel down on one knee and put his ear close to her abdomen, and she couldn't help but ask him a question.
"I'm listening to see if the little one is sleeping or playing right now."
Qin Yanzheng answered in a particularly serious manner.
"Stop it, you can't hear anything right now that I'm pregnant."
Song Lan found it both amusing and exasperating. She shook her head, poked the man's arm lightly with her index finger, and said, "Aren't you tired? Get up and sit down!"
“You’re wrong. I could hear the baby’s heartbeat. He told me he was healthy and that he would be good and not let his mother suffer during his pregnancy!”
Qin Yanzheng stood up and sat down next to Song Lan, putting his arm around her. His expression and tone were perfectly in sync.
Song Lan was amused by what the man said and laughed.
"Wife, do you not believe me?"
Qin Yanzheng felt wronged.
"No, no, I believe you!"
Although she said she believed it, what was there that Qin Yanzheng didn't understand about Song Lan's curved lips and the smile in her eyes?
However, he didn't tease Song Lan anymore. Instead, he tightened his arms around her, gently kissed her cheek, and said with tender and affectionate eyes, "Wife, thank you!"
Thank you for bringing our child into this world.
Before Song Lan could respond, he added, "You've worked hard. If the little guy goes back on his word and gives you trouble, I'll definitely give him a good talking to after he's born!"
"good."
Song Lan nodded with a smile.
Suddenly, Qin Yanzheng thought of something and said, "I'll call Dad and my parents-in-law right now to tell them the good news."
"It's inconvenient for my parents to answer the phone, I'll talk to them again tomorrow during the day."
Hearing Song Lan say this, Qin Yanzheng glanced at the time on his wristwatch, then looked out the window, and nodded.
"There's definitely no one at the brigade headquarters right now. I'll listen to you and call Dad first to tell him the good news that you're pregnant. I'll tell your parents tomorrow."
Song Lan hummed in agreement and stood up. "Let's go. You call Dad and I'll go wash up."
...
Upon receiving Qin Yanzheng's call with good news, Qin's father was overjoyed. He repeatedly urged Qin Yanzheng to take good care of Song Lan during the call. After the father and son finished talking, Qin's father was so happy that he paced around the living room several times before his excitement gradually subsided.
Similarly, the next day in Shisong Village, Song Sanhe was about to go home when the office phone suddenly rang. Without thinking, he picked up the landline and heard Qin Yanzheng's voice on the other end.
After confirming each other's identities, Song Sanhe heard Qin Yanzheng say into the phone, "Dad, Lanlan is pregnant. In about seven months, you and Mom will be grandpa and grandma. Dad, are you listening?"
"...I heard it, I heard it, Dad heard it!"
Song Sanhe was stunned for a moment, then immediately responded. He was genuinely happy for Song Lan at that moment and asked, "Is Lanlan alright?"
