It is the New Year and the whole family is together again. This year, there are two pregnant women at the dinner table. Peng Wei and Peng Zhe will both enter the Dad Novice Village in 1988.
Wang Siting's belly is bigger and she is almost six months pregnant. Qi Xi's belly is not yet noticeable and is less than three months old, which is when morning sickness is particularly severe.
Afraid that she would feel sick after smelling all the dishes on the table, Shen An Ning specially placed all the vegetarian dishes in front of Qi Xi, "Xiao Xi, this is a leather bag I made, take it, and smell it if you feel uncomfortable. Is there anything you particularly want to eat? I'll make some for you, don't be embarrassed, we all got here this way."
Qi Xi had just married into the Peng family. Because she got married while pregnant, she felt a little inferior for a while, fearing that the elders in her family would have opinions about her. After all, people are still very conservative these days. A murder happened before they even got married, and she herself felt a little unbearable, let alone others.
But everyone in the family was very nice to her. Her mother-in-law, Shen Yipei, was afraid that she had some concerns, so she had a special chat with her and helped her resolve the issue.
"Thank you, sister. I'm much better now. I just felt a little sick from the smell of the elbow. I'm fine now. I'll just eat some vegetarian food. I don't think I can eat anything else."
Shen Anning smiled and gave her a steamed bun, “It’s not easy to get nauseous when eating steamed buns, don’t let yourself get hungry.”
This year's Spring Festival Gala was a little different from previous years. It was broadcast live, and all CCTV channels could receive the signal at the same time. The whole family watched TV while eating New Year's Eve dinner, which was very lively.
Several children sat at a table. Yuanbao and Tangyuan didn't want to squeeze in with the adults. They each held an older sister. It must be said that the little ones were picky. The two older sisters were considerate and loved them, and they would feed them the first thing they could eat.
On the other side of the table, Peng Wei gently held his wife's hand. The hosts of this gala were all selected through competition within the station. As a young host, Wang Siting had good skills and an approachable appearance. She originally had great hopes, but unfortunately, due to her pregnancy, she gave up this opportunity for the sake of her baby.
"It's okay. If it doesn't work out this year, there's still next year, right? I'm still so young. Compared to this opportunity, I care more about our baby." How could Wang Siting not know what her partner was thinking? To be honest, it was a pity to miss this opportunity. It was the first time that the broadcast method was changed and the first time that she could face audiences across the country. But compared to the child, she had no entanglement or hesitation about this opportunity. This baby was the fruit of their love and the little baby they were all looking forward to.
We ate while watching TV, with skits, singing, dancing, magic, etc. The programs were very diverse, and the children kept their eyes glued to the TV, laughing when they saw something interesting.
This group of little ones are the future and hope of several families. Seeing them laughing and joking so happily, the adults are also moved by their simple emotions.
As the person who made a big mistake in the family this year, Peng Zhe was scolded by Grandpa Shen Pengcheng. If Qi Xi hadn't been there, he might not have been able to sit at the table for the New Year's Eve dinner this year.
So, in order to apologize to his family, he actively showed himself this time. After dinner, he was the only one who cleaned up the pots, pans, tables, etc. Everyone was drinking tea, eating snacks and chatting in the hall, but he was the only one who carried things out one by one and washed dishes by the sink.
Qi Xi sat among her family, looking out more than once. Shen Yipei cut an orange for her and said, "It's okay. Peng Zhe has been naughty since he was a child. Mom tells you that you need to be a little tougher at home in the future. You can't always let him lead you around. Look at you, you even tried to admit your mistake the other day. Was it you who was wrong? I know my son well, don't feel sorry for him. Come, have an orange. We didn't eat anything at the dinner table just now. Don't starve yourself. Your health is the most important thing."
"Yeah, thank you, Mom." Qi Xi picked up a slice of orange and put it in her mouth. It was sour and sweet, just to her liking. Fortunately, her belly was not obvious yet. You know, her parents didn't know she was pregnant yet. Thinking of going back to her parents' home on the second day of the New Year, Qi Xi was a little scared. If it was exposed at that time, her father would definitely beat Peng Zhe. They were originally in a relationship with the intention of getting married, but who knew that he would get pregnant just once because he couldn't help himself. Just once?
One misstep can lead to eternal regret!
After washing all the dishes and bowls, Peng Zhe pounded his waist. In the past, these tasks were done by a group of men in the family, and he didn't feel so tired at that time. Now that he did it alone, he realized that it was really a big project!
But even if he worked like this, some things were probably not finished yet. He went to the room to get the gifts he had prepared long ago, two large heavy bags. These were his trump cards for tonight. Whether his brothers and sisters would help him or not would depend on whether the gifts he gave tonight touched their hearts.
He deliberately made some noise when he entered the room. "Ouch, I'm so tired. This thing is so heavy."
Shen Anning looked at the pretentious Peng Zhe and couldn't bear to watch it. It was too obvious. However, she was a good sister and still cooperated. "What is this? There are two bags. What's wrong? Is it a New Year's gift for everyone?"
When a group of children heard the word "gift", they came running over in a large group, "Hey, hey, hey, babies, your gifts will be given to you tomorrow. This is not a child's toy."
"Grandpa, grandma, mom, dad, uncle, aunt, brother, sister-in-law, sister, brother-in-law, I know I did something wrong this year. I will really be strict with myself and be careful with what I say and do in the future. These are the New Year gifts I prepared for you all, and I am sorry for causing you all trouble." In order to show his sincerity, Peng Zhe bowed after he finished speaking.
What does it feel like to have more than a dozen mobile phones placed on the table together? The visual effect is really maximized. Peng Wei glanced at his younger brother. This gift is really showy!
