"That must hurt so much?!"
Li Jumei was terrified.
"Mom, anesthesia will be used during a C-section."
Song Lan explained.
"..."
Li Jumei was stunned for a long time. Her lips twitched, but she didn't utter a single word.
"Mom, I know you're worried about me, but no matter how worried you are, I still have to give birth to the baby, right? Otherwise, are you going to let both babies stay in my womb forever?"
Song Lan spoke softly and gently, reassuring Li Jumei: "This is obviously impossible, and I am their mother, it is my duty to bring them into the world safely."
Of course, I also need to ensure my own safety so that I can raise them to grow up healthy, happy, and carefree.
After helping Song Lan back to the living room and sitting down, Li Jumei said, "Okay, Mom isn't worried. I believe you and the baby in your belly will be fine!"
It would be a lie to say she wasn't worried, but she didn't want her precious daughter to go to the trouble of comforting her.
-
"Sister-in-law, are you about to have your nephew or niece?"
After dinner, the sweet and soft little girl looked at Song Lan's high pregnant belly, blinked her big, dark grape-like eyes, and asked Song Lan with curiosity and anticipation.
"Well, in about two weeks you'll be able to see your little nephew and niece. Aren't you excited?"
Song Lan had gentle eyes and casually patted the little girl's head.
"Happy!"
The little girl answered loudly.
"I'm happy too, sister-in-law! I'll play with my little nephew and niece every day!"
As the adorable little boy Xiao Wu spoke, he unconsciously straightened his little body. Fang continued, "I also want to protect my little nephew and niece from being bullied by other children. Sister-in-law, I will definitely be a good uncle, right?"
"right!"
Song Lan nodded with a smile: "Our Xiao Wu is the best. I believe you will be a good uncle and protect your nephew and niece."
When the adorable little boy was praised, he was a little embarrassed and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm just a little bit good!"
"Hey buddy, weren't you always so arrogant? Why are you being humble now?"
The little girl stared at her brother with an incredulous look on her face.
"Qin Xiaoliu, don't wrong me. When did I ever act arrogantly?"
The adorable little boy, Xiao Wu, glared at his sister, then snorted and said, "You girls always like to gossip about others. Qin Xiao Liu, if you don't change this habit, don't blame me for ignoring you from now on!"
"Brother, I'm grown up, not scared!"
The little girl proudly raised her chin.
"Sister-in-law, have you noticed that Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu's mouths are becoming more and more like my second brother's? They're both so talkative!"
Qin Yaxin suddenly interjected.
"Second sister, don't think I don't know you're complaining that I talk too much."
The adorable little girl, Xiao Wu, looked at Qin Yaxin with a hint of resentment: "I never talk nonsense. Please remember that, Second Sister."
"Like this guy, I never waste words once I open my mouth."
The little girl looked straight at Qin Yaxin: "Second sister, when second brother is home, you and second brother bicker every day! You two always go back and forth, neither of you giving in. Whenever you're both at home..."
There's always this constant chatter in my ears, but out of consideration for you and your second brother, I haven't said a single word of complaint.
Qin Yaxin blushed: "You little devil, trying to give me and my second brother advice? Why are we chattering away? We were just having a normal conversation!"
Everyone else sitting in the living room was amused by the conversation between the two little ones and Qin Yaxin.
Qin Yaxin felt uncomfortable upon hearing the laughter. She stood up from her chair and said, "I have homework to finish, so I'll go back to my room first."
As the music faded, her figure disappeared from the living room.
"Brother, Second Sister is embarrassed by what we said, right?"
The little girl Qin Yaxuan whispered in her brother's ear, and upon hearing this, the adorable little Wu also whispered back, "Yes, I saw Second Sister blush."
"I think your second sister is right, you two are really precocious for your age!"
That was Qin Yanzheng's voice. He looked at the two little ones and shook his head with a smile.
"What do you mean by 'precocious child'? Big brother, my sister and I are called 'early geniuses'."
The adorable little boy, Xiao Wu, crossed his arms, his eyes brimming with smugness.
Qin Yanzheng was speechless for a moment, then said, "You're not modest at all."
"Who said that?"
The adorable little boy, Xiao Wu, glared at her: "My little sister just praised me for being humble. Did you not hear me clearly, big brother, or did you not hear me at all?"
Qin Yanzheng remained silent for a long time.
Song Lan then laughed out loud: "Admit it, your brain isn't as quick as Xiao Wu's."
"I am in the prime of my life."
Qin Yanzheng glanced at Song Lan, his dark eyes filled with resentment and grievance. Seeing this, Song Lan's laughter, which she had just suppressed, burst forth again, and Qin Yaqing and Yang Fan beside her couldn't help but chuckle.
They undoubtedly understood the meaning behind the conversation between Song Lan and Qin Yanzheng.
Li Jumei was completely confused, but she didn't ask for an explanation. She stood up and called Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu to go with her to wash up.
"Auntie, you should go back to your room to rest after you wash up. I'll take Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu to wash up."
Qin Yaqing stood up and greeted Song Lan, Qin Yanzheng, and Yang Fan one by one, then extended her hand to the two children:
"Come on, wash up and go to bed early, you have to go to kindergarten tomorrow."
After Qin Yaqing left the living room with the two children and Li Jumei, Yang Fan also got up to say goodbye to Song Lan and his wife before returning to his own room.
...
"Your due date is in half a month, and I'll take a few more days off to be with you then."
"No need, just focus on your work."
