Zhou Xiang saw the dejection on Guo Jia's face and decided to give her cousin another day. If he didn't come back tomorrow night, she would call him and scold him.
Who knew that the next morning, I would see my cousin wolfing down his food at the dining table. He asked, "How many days have you been hungry?"
Zhou Kai stuffed food into his mouth and answered vaguely, "I just finished a mission and reported to the captain and came back immediately. If I hadn't packed my luggage before the mission, I would have run back without even taking my luggage. I fought hard for two months of maternity leave."
Zhou Xiang then noticed his cousin who looked a little dark and thin. "Then these two months are a good opportunity for you to catch up."
"Hehe," Zhou Kai finally looked up and smiled foolishly at his cousin, "Thank you, cousin."
"No need to thank me, as long as you can take the supplements without hesitation." Zhou Xiang blinked his big eyes and was polite to his cousin in a serious manner.
"Don't worry! I love all the food here, cousin."
Zhou Xiang just smiled and said nothing, hoping that you could still say this while eating the tasteless confinement meal left by your wife.
After eating and drinking his fill, Zhou Kai was driven by Zhou Xiang to an empty guest room to take a bath. He looked like he had just crawled out of the deep mountains and forests. If she saw him first, she would never let him eat first.
Soon, everyone in Zhou's house came out to have breakfast. When Guo Jia came out, Zhou didn't tell her that Zhou Kai was back, and planned to give her a little surprise.
When Guo Jia saw Zhou Kai, tears started streaming down her face. Zhou Kai was startled. He took a few steps to her and hugged her helplessly, one hand gently touching her bulging belly. "Did the kid bully you? Wait until he comes out and I'll spank him."
“Wuwuwu…”
Guo Jia leaned on his shoulder and started crying. He was so scared that he didn't know what to do. He wished he could grow two more hands so that he could hug his wife and hold her belly.
"Don't cry, don't cry, blame me, blame me for not doing proper prenatal education for the child at home, don't cry anymore."
It would have been fine if Zhou Kai didn't get coaxed, but the more he coaxed, the harder he cried, and finally burst into tears.
Zhou Kai looked at his cousin for help.
Zhou Xiang was eating his breakfast leisurely. Not only Zhou Xiang, but everyone in Zhou's house was eating their breakfast with relish. They had a good appetite as they had a show to watch.
After looking around and finding no one to help him, Zhou Kai had no choice but to continue coaxing her, "Don't cry, everyone is watching us! If this were inside, I could still give you kisses and hugs, but there are too many people here, ahhh... it hurts."
Zhou Kai, who was talking nonsense, had his skin pinched a little by his wife's fingernails. This was the only skill that could be used to deal with people with thick skin.
"What's wrong?" Someone rushed in from outside the door, "Xiao Kai, what's wrong?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Cuilan had already arrived in front of Zhou Kai.
Guo Jia wiped his face and sat down at the dining table to eat breakfast.
Zhou Kai's expression turned cold, "What are you doing here?"
"I calculated that Jiajia's due date is almost here. Are you planning to come over and take care of her during the confinement period?" Xia Cuilan explained to her son with a smile.
"You came just as our grandson was about to be born. How many times have you come in the past few months?"
Xia Cuilan was speechless.
Zhou Kai jumped up three feet high, "You haven't been here before, have you?"
"Xiao Kai, I..." Seeing that her son was really angry, Xia Cuilan hurried to explain.
"No need to explain, just go away! My son doesn't need you as his grandmother. You knew I didn't have time to come back to look after Jia Jia and her son, but you didn't even come to see me. Now I don't need you to come here hypocritically." Zhou Kai pushed the person out.
"Zhou Kai," Zhou wanted to stop his cousin, "No matter what, she is the child's grandmother. It is her responsibility to take care of her grandchildren. When the baby is too young, he needs diapers. Just ask his grandmother to help wash them! Otherwise, you will have to wash them."
Xia Cuilan's smile changed with Zhou Xiang's words. She was not happy that the task of washing diapers fell on her, but Zhou Xiang's last words still made her agree without hesitation. "That's right, not to mention that you are a grown man washing diapers, even if I asked you to, you wouldn't be able to wash them cleanly."
This scene made Zhou Xiang feel deeply emotional. No matter how selfish Xia Cuilan was, her love for Zhou Kai remained unchanged. He glanced at his mother and sighed softly.
After confirming that she could stay and take care of her grandson, Xia Cuilan immediately returned to pack her toiletries and spare clothes.
After his mother left, Zhou Kai sat next to his wife and held her hand. "Don't worry, my mother won't dare bully you with me here."
Guo Jia raised his face and grinned at him, "Yes! I believe you."
The two of them were whispering about the baby in their bellies. Zhou wanted to chase them away, "Zhou Kai, take Jia Jia for more walks. It will help with the birth. When you're not at home, we're all very cautious and don't dare to take her out for a stroll."
"Okay," Zhou Kai stood up, but was held back by Guo Jia. "Let's go in the afternoon. Go get some sleep. Your eyes are red."
"I want you to accompany me~"
The two of them went back to the bedroom to sleep. When Xia Cuilan came again, Zhou wanted to arrange for her to stay in the guest room in the north section and told her righteously,
"The guest rooms in the south section are full, so don't even think about staying in Jiajia's suite. The couple haven't seen each other for over six months. Give them some private space to chat about missing each other. You should be more considerate of her because she's been pregnant for six months without her husband by her side. "
Xia Cuilan's goal of watching her grandson nearby was ruined by her niece. She dared not say anything but nodded and said, "Yes, you are right. During the confinement period, Xiao Kai and I will take turns to stay with you at night."
Zhou Xiang glanced at her and said nothing more. It depends on whether she will do it during the confinement period.
In the afternoon, Zhou Kai took Guo Jia for a walk. Xia Cuilan looked at them but did not follow.
