"No...I...this is so sudden and such a pleasant surprise! I..."
This was the first time I'd ever seen Chu Yan so excited that he was at a loss for what to do.
In his heart, he had always wanted to have a child of his own with Ye Nian'an.
Now that such a pleasant surprise has suddenly fallen on his head, it's no wonder he can't even speak properly.
Ye Nian'an wasn't nervous and waited patiently for Chu Yan to finish processing this incredible good news.
"Niannian, since you're pregnant, why didn't you say so during dinner?"
"That's what I wanted to say, but Sufang just happened to come over to deliver something."
Ye Nian'an winked mischievously: "I'd rather enjoy your helpless look all to myself first."
And now, this idea is correct.
She found a satisfactory answer in Chu Yan.
"This is such a wonderful surprise!"
Chu Yan couldn't help but kiss Ye Nian'an's cheek, his large hand gently stroking her lower abdomen.
It's a truly magical feeling.
Within this place, new life is being nurtured.
The child belongs to me and Ye Nian'an.
Knowing this, Chu Yan felt even more hopeful and expectant for the days to come.
Although I don't think it's a good choice for the child to be born here, since he's already here, I can't just kill his life.
In this simple room, love and hope are quietly growing.
Chu Yan vowed that he would protect the mother and child even at the cost of his own life! He would never let anything happen to them!
"Alright, Yan-ge, go tell Mom and Dad the good news."
"kindness!"
After Chu Yan told Chu Zhenyuan and the others about this, it took the latter quite a while to come to their senses.
She rushed into Ye Nian'an's room, excitedly asking, "Niannian, is it really true?"
Ye Nian'an smiled slightly: "Dad, Mom, it's the real deal. How could this be fake?"
"That's great! Judging by the time, it's about time!"
"Yes, when I got pregnant with Chu Yan, it was about a year after we got married."
Chi Xinyao and Chu Zhenyuan couldn't wait to announce this joyous occasion to the whole world and celebrate together.
Their first grandchild has finally arrived.
"By the way, Niannian, you only found out about this today?"
"Yes, the pulse wasn't very strong before, so I didn't pay attention. It was only after Sufang became pregnant and came to take my pulse that I noticed it, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed."
It's only been a month, and it's still a long way from the nine-month pregnancy and childbirth time.
“Niannian, do you think being a barefoot doctor is tiring? If you want to focus on your pregnancy and take good care of your health, you can choose to quit.”
"Anyway, Xin'er and I are both elementary school teachers now, and we have salaries. With the work points from your father-in-law and Chu Yan, we can live a comfortable life."
Chi Xinyao spoke these words very carefully.
She knew Ye Nian'an really liked the job, but as a mother-in-law, she still had to give her daughter-in-law the respect she deserved.
At the very least, you should ask for their opinion.
Whether she wants to stay home and rest during her pregnancy or continue working, Chi Hsin-yao supports her decision.
They're not in that difficult phase anymore, like when they were first sent down to the countryside.
Ye Nian'an naturally understood Chi Xinyao's intention and shook her head: "Mom, no need. I really like this job, and I have enough free time. I will take good care of myself."
Chi Xinyao came to Ye Nian'an's side, took her hand, and said earnestly, "Okay, Nian'an, I was just asking you, don't take it to heart."
"I want you to know that whatever you choose to do, I, as your mother, will always support you!"
Ye Nian'an nestled into Chi Xinyao's arms, saying contentedly, "Mom, I know~ Thank you~"
"Why."
Chi Xinyao patted Ye Nian'an on the back: "Such a happy occasion should be told to Xiangyu and the others as soon as possible. They will be very happy to know."
"Okay, I'll talk to the brigade leader later and apply to go to Houpu Township to provide support. I'll also tell them about this good news."
That side.
Yang Qiaoqiao and Zhang Aihua rushed to the Bai family.
Upon seeing Bai Chengshi, he immediately said, "Dad, I heard you just delivered a bunch of eggs and two chickens to Dr. Ye's place?"
Bai Chengshi frowned subtly: "I did give it to you, so what?"
Upon hearing this, the two women instantly exploded: "Dad! How could you send so many nice things to their house? Didn't you see how thin your grandchildren are? They're not getting any nutrition!"
"They are at a crucial stage of their growth right now. If these eggs and chicken could be given to Zuo Zuo and You Zuo, they would definitely help them grow taller!"
"You...you all..."
Bai Chengshi was furious.
Since that unpleasant incident during the Chinese New Year, the second and third sons came back to divide the family property, took their belongings out, and have basically never returned.
Bai Chengshi also chose to ignore it and not worry about it. Anyway, with the eldest and fourth brothers by his side and their sensible care, Li Qiuxia didn't cause any trouble, and he lived a comfortable life.
Unexpectedly, when the second and third sons' wives returned after several months, they were unhappy to hear that he had sent gifts to the Chu family and questioned him, their father.
What kind of justice is this?!
“You’ve all separated from the family and moved out. Zuo and You are your children. If you can’t take good care of them, what use is this old woman like me?”
"I'm already exhausted from taking care of your mother and managing this household! If you want chicken or eggs, go earn them yourself! Those are my things, not yours!"
Yang Qiaoqiao retorted instinctively, "Dad! How can you say such a thing? How selfish! Zuo You and You are your grandchildren. Would you rather give such good things to outsiders than to your own grandchildren?"
"Second son's wife, let me tell you! Your eldest sister-in-law is pregnant now, all thanks to Dr. Ye! This is an immense favor to our Bai family."
"They didn't hold your two scoundrels accountable for the despicable things you did or the matter of Su Zhiqing. They helped your sister-in-law resolve a long-standing worry. If our Bai family hadn't been so desperate for more, do you think simply giving them this much would have been enough?"
