Time flies when there are many people around. Before we knew it, it was already twelve o'clock in the morning. No one felt sleepy at all and everyone was full of energy.
"It's time to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, Haoyang, hurry up and light the firecrackers with your dad." Zhang Fengrong stood up and said happily.
As soon as these words fell, the sound of firecrackers rang out from the neighbors. Cheng Haoting and Zheng Xinyue heard the noise outside and were so excited that they insisted on going out to take a look.
"You two girls, you'd better stay in the house. It would be bad if you get hurt by firecrackers." For safety reasons, Cheng Dayu did not recommend that the two girls go out at this time.
Cheng Haoting and Zheng Xinyue pouted helplessly.
"I think what Brother Cheng said makes sense. You two should stay in the house and don't run around." Zheng Shaochun responded.
Cheng Haoyu and Zheng Xinyi looked at each other, and their eyes fell on Xinyi's belly at the same time, with the corners of their mouths slightly raised, with a happy smile on their faces.
"Wife, Happy New Year." Cheng Haoyu whispered in Zheng Xinyi's ear.
The smile on Zheng Xinyi's face became even sweeter, and she responded in a low voice, only the two of them could hear: "Haoyu, Happy New Year."
"Brother, sister-in-law, what are you two whispering about? You are smiling so sweetly." Cheng Haoting and Zheng Xinyue began to turn their attention to them.
Zheng Xinyi glanced at them and her face immediately turned red: "How could we be talking in secret?"
"Second sister, you are embarrassed. Tell me quickly, what are you two whispering about?" Zheng Xinyue stepped forward and asked relentlessly.
"Oh! Since it's a private message, I naturally won't share it with you." Cheng Haoyu responded.
On the other side, Zheng Xinwei held Shao Fang's hand tightly. The two of them looked at Zheng Xinyue with a smile and shook their heads helplessly.
"You two come quickly and help serve the dumplings." Zhang Fengrong's voice came from the kitchen.
"The dumplings are ready. I must eat the first one." Cheng Haoting started drooling and ran into the kitchen impatiently.
"Haoting, the first dumpling is mine." Zheng Xinyue gave up questioning Zheng Xinyi and Cheng Haoyu, turned around and followed her away.
Zheng Xinyi let out a light breath and glanced at Cheng Haoyu. Although there were no words, the eye contact made them understand each other's intentions.
"Haoyu, please take care of Xinwei for me. I'll go to the kitchen to help out." Shao Fang patted Zheng Xinwei's shoulder gently and said.
"Don't worry!" Cheng Haoyu supported Zheng Xinyi and sat next to Zheng Xinwei, and the three of them began to chat.
"Xinyi, big brother has something to ask of you." Zheng Xinwei glanced at Shao Fang who had entered the kitchen, and whispered to Zheng Xinyi, "Mom has been constantly asking about Shao Fang's pregnancy lately, and it's really driving me crazy. Now in this family, Mom will listen to you. You can have a good chat with Mom when you have time."
Zheng Xinyi smiled slightly and patted his shoulder. "Brother, just put your mind at ease! I've already discussed this matter with our mother. Don't worry, she will never embarrass my sister-in-law in the future."
Zheng Xinwei's eyes widened, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Really? Xinyi, you are really great. How did you make our mother promise not to embarrass Shao Fang anymore?"
Zheng Xinyi raised her eyebrows at him and replied in a mysterious manner, "Secret."
