"Wife, give me two more months."
That evening, Huo Xiao held Ye Weiwei in his arms, placing one hand on her belly. Feeling the little ones inside her moving around, he gently kissed Ye Weiwei's cheek and said, "You've had a tough time these past few days."
Ye Weiwei didn't feel that it was hard work.
During this period, apart from teaching a few children martial arts and literacy at home, she hardly had to do any work. She was practically waited on hand and foot.
Her mother-in-law and two sisters-in-law did all the housework, and they never missed out on any good food.
Huo Xiao, on the other hand, has been traveling a lot lately, and has gotten quite tanned and thinner.
"Are you getting ready to close the net?"
Huo Xiao hummed in agreement.
He needs to finish what he's doing quickly so he can be by his wife's side when she gives birth.
"Please be careful," Ye Weiwei carefully instructed. "Keep the things I prepared with you at all times, just in case."
It's best not to use it if possible.
But if you encounter danger, it's like having an extra life.
"Don't worry, I wouldn't bear to leave you and the child."
Ye Weiwei snorted, "You better have the self-awareness! Otherwise, I'll find someone to marry, let them sleep with your wife and beat your kids, and make you furious!"
Huo Xiao: ...
His wife is ruthless!
Suddenly, the pressure on her stomach increased, making Ye Weiwei uncomfortable. She protested, "What are you doing! Be gentle!"
Huo Xiao's eyes were deep and unfathomable. "Wife, I've asked the doctor, it's okay now..."
He originally planned to remain silent until the child was born, since his wife had gone through a difficult pregnancy and he didn't want to appear too beastly.
But after hearing his wife's "bold words," Huo Xiao suddenly couldn't control himself and didn't want to hold back anymore.
She's already pregnant with Huo Xiao's child, and this little woman still wants to marry someone else and even have that person beat his child!
very good!
Has your little wife gotten too cocky lately and forgotten how she begged for mercy under him every time?
Ye Weiwei lifted her eyelids and yawned, "I don't understand what you're saying. I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep."
Huo Xiao was not about to let her off so easily.
Carefully avoiding her stomach, he pulled her into his arms and said, "You can sleep later."
Ye Weiwei pinched Huo Xiao's waist in annoyance, "You old scoundrel, let me go!"
"I won't let go! Today, your man is going to reassert his authority as husband! Let's see if you dare to talk nonsense again!"
"Huo Xiao..."
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't make Mom and Little Star argue."
Ye Weiwei: ……
"Honey, don't hold back anymore, I know you miss me too... Touch my abs, don't they feel even better to touch now..."
Ye Weiwei: ……
"Don't move, leave it to me..."
Ye Weiwei: ……
Ye Weiwei didn't even know when Huo Xiao left the next day.
After being tossed and turned for most of the night, Ye Weiwei woke up when the sun was already high in the sky.
When Liu Guilan saw that Ye Weiwei had gotten up, she quickly gave her the hot water she had prepared. After Ye Weiwei finished washing up, Liu Guilan brought out the breakfast that had been left in the pot for her to eat.
Seeing the red marks on Ye Weiwei's neck that couldn't be covered up, Liu Guilan couldn't help but curse Huo Xiao in her heart for being so inhuman and for not hitting her hard enough with the fire poker.
"Weiwei, you're heavily pregnant right now, you can't let men do whatever they want. You can't indulge him at a time like this!"
Ye Weiwei blushed deeply and mumbled a response.
Liu Guilan knew she was shy, so she didn't say anything more.
We need to discipline that brat Huo Xiao properly. Weiwei is only so young; what does she know about being a mother for the first time?
You can only blame Huo Xiao for doing something inhuman; at his age, he still bullies young girls!
Liu Guilan, convinced that Ye Weiwei had been bullied by Huo Xiao, treated Huo Xiao like a wolf every time he came back after that incident. She almost made him sleep in his side room so he wouldn't be near Ye Weiwei, causing Huo Xiao a lot of suffering.
As the weather gradually gets hotter, Ye Weiwei's belly has become frighteningly large. When she walks, Liu Guilan is afraid that she will lose her balance and fall forward. The person who is worried about her has lost weight.
With two weeks left until his due date, Huo Xiao finally finished his work and rushed back that evening, looking travel-worn.
Ye Weiwei hadn't seen him for half a month, and was stunned when she saw him.
Where did this rough-looking guy come from?
It was even rougher than when they first met.
This beard looks like it hasn't been shaved since we last met.
And this hair, it hasn't been cut for months, it's grown so long it's almost covering my eyes.
His clothes were tattered and torn, and he didn't even bother to mend them. He was also filthy and smelled awful...
"Wife?" Huo Xiao called out tentatively.
Ye Weiwei pinched her nose, "Where did you crawl out from?"
I haven't showered in so many days!
Hearing voices in the courtyard, Liu Guilan was so frightened that she rushed out, but she didn't recognize Huo Xiao at all. She thought it was a beggar coming to ask for food, so she went back into the house, grabbed a piece of bread, and stuffed it into Huo Xiao's hand, saying, "Let's go!"
Huo Xiao: ...
Ye Weiwei: ……
Huo Xiao's heart sank to the ground. "Mother?"
It's not what he thinks, is it?
Liu Guilan was startled when she heard Huo Xiao's voice, then looked at her son with disgust, "Third son! Look at yourself! This is not how a father should behave!"
As she spoke, she snatched the pancake from Huo Xiao's hand, "Go wash it quickly, don't let the smell bother Weiwei and the baby! You're not allowed to eat until it's clean!"
Huo Xiao: ...
He's definitely not their biological son!
Seeing his frustrated expression, Ye Weiwei couldn't help but laugh out loud.
After Huo Xiao finally washed up and changed into clean clothes, Liu Guilan finally found him more agreeable and the beautiful bond between mother and son was restored.
The reason Huo Xiao rushed back so quickly was to pick up Ye Weiwei and take her to stay in the county town.
He rented a courtyard in the county town, which was already tidied up, and was preparing to bring Ye Weiwei to stay there.
It's close to the county hospital, so Ye Weiwei can be taken there immediately once she starts moving.
Liu Guilan was worried about Ye Weiwei's childbirth, but when she heard that Huo Xiao had already made arrangements, she finally felt relieved and immediately started packing her things.
The next day, Huo Xiao drove Ye Weiwei, Liu Guilan, and Xiao Xingxing to the county town.
Huo Xiao rented a house in the east of the county town. It was a spacious detached house with its own courtyard.
The house was originally a large courtyard with two sections, but someone built a wall in the middle to divide it into two courtyards.
The courtyard that Huo Xiao rented was a front yard, which was larger and more spacious than the back yard. It was close to the street in front, making it very convenient to come and go.
Ye Weiwei liked the place at first sight. She saw her mother-in-law, Liu Guilan, wander around the yard as soon as she entered, checking every room and wiping everything down with a rag. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mom, don't rush to clean up. Take a rest first."
Even in this sweltering heat, the old lady didn't seem to mind the hard work.
