Chapter 253 Are all fathers so confident?

She didn't eat much this afternoon, because Xie Jing came back too early and she didn't have a chance to eat at all.

So she ate a little more than usual for dinner.

When Xie Jing saw that she ate more than usual, he said, how could someone who usually eats a lot suddenly eat so little.

If she eats less just because he says to, then she is not a foodie Jiang Youning. She

didn't eat much in the afternoon, so she had to eat more for dinner.

Jiang Youning only had one thing to do every day, which was to look forward to Xiaoyu bringing her food to satisfy her hunger.

But today, she was a little worried because she waited and waited but didn't see Xiaoyu.

"Why hasn't Xiaoyu come today? Is she delayed by something?"

Well, Xiaoyu is not idle every day.

Jiang Youning was lying on the windowsill. She didn't wait for Xiaoyu, but Xie Jing came back.

Now there was no hope at all.

Jiang Youning sighed, then waved to Xie Jing with a smile, "Husband, you came back so early today."

Xie Jing looked at Jiang Youning and knew that she was waiting for Xiaoyu, but he didn't expose her, "Yeah."

He strode in.

Jiang Youning retracted her gaze, thinking that Xiaoyu should not come suddenly at this time, otherwise she would be exposed.

Xie Jing put the things in his hand in front of her, then sat down on the couch, looking at Jiang Youning, "Eat."

Jiang Youning's eyes had long been on the package in front of her. When Xie Jing spoke, she had already reached out and couldn't wait to untie the package.

She found a small amount of tea cakes and mung bean soup inside.

She was surprised. Drinking mung bean soup in summer is the best way to cool down.

She held the glass cup, unscrewed the lid, put it to her mouth and drank two sips. The cool feeling filled her mouth, and she couldn't help but drink two more sips.

Xie Jing looked at her drinking mung bean soup. It seemed that he was too strict with her. However, in order to have less hardship in production, he still had to continue to supervise her.

Although Jiang Youning didn't wait for Xiaoyu to feed her, she was satisfied when Xie Jing fed her.

At this time, Xie Susu came to Lingxiyuan with her son in her arms. When she walked in, she saw her son and daughter-in-law sitting on the couch, talking and laughing. It was obvious that they had a good relationship.

"It's very hot today, and he doesn't take a nap, so bring him over to play."

Jiang Youning stood up and walked over, looking at her brother-in-law, who was staring at her curiously with his eyes wide open.

"Brother-in-law."

Xie Jing felt uncomfortable when she heard this brother-in-law, but she still called her brother brother-in-law after correcting herself several times.

It was strange to call a kid this young "brother-in-law".

Xie Susu looked up at Xie Jing, "Are you busy these days?"

Xie Jing said, "Mom, the military camp is relatively quiet these days, and I don't have to go to the military camp if I have nothing to do."

Xie Susu nodded, "Your father and I plan to return to Luoyang in two days, but we can't let you go."

Xie Jing glanced at Jiang Youning, with an imperceptible tenderness in his eyes, and said, "Don't worry, Aning and I will be fine."

Xie Susu looked at her son and daughter-in-law. She had to leave no matter how reluctant she was. Gu Changyu had a lot of things to deal with when he returned.

Her son was about to become a father now, and her heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally fell to the ground.

The day Gu Changyu and Xie Susu left was sunny and windy.

Xie Jing held his younger brother in his arms. The boy seemed to know he was leaving, holding onto his brother's hair and holding his brother's neck with one hand, as if he was reluctant to leave.

Gu Changyu saw this and came over to hold his younger son, but as soon as he reached out his hand, the boy buried his head in his brother's neck and ignored Gu Changyu.

Gu Changyu smiled and said, "How long have you been with your brother? Why are you so attached to him?"

It was Xie Susu who came over to hold him, and he let go of his hand and asked Xie Susu for a hug.

Xie Jing watched Gu Changyu and Xie Susu get on the carriage. The boy's phoenix eyes were staring at him without blinking until they got into the carriage, blocking his view.

After the carriage went away, Xie Jing retracted his gaze and looked at Jiang Youning beside him, "Let's go in."

Jiang Youning also retracted her gaze and walked in led by Xie Jing.

For several days in a row, Xiaoyu didn't buy anything for her. She didn't know if he was too busy recently or what.

He didn't bring his son to see his future wife.

Jiang Youning lay on the windowsill helplessly, looking at the spring scenery in the garden, her eyes fell on the fresh roses, she wanted to eat fresh flower cakes.

Jiang Youning is the kind of person who must eat what she wants, otherwise she will think about it when she goes to sleep at night.

"Chuntao, I want to eat fresh flower cakes."

Chuntao was sewing clothes for children. She raised her head and looked over when she heard it.

"But I don't know how to make fresh flower cakes."

Jiang Youning smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this? I'll teach you."

Chuntao put down her needlework and walked over.

Jiang Youning also got up from the couch and pulled Chuntao out of the room.

The first step in making fresh flower cakes is to collect fresh petals and then shred them.

Chuntao took a bamboo basket to collect petals in the yard, and Jiang Youning helped her. It didn't take long to collect a bamboo basket of petals.

It was a simple process and not difficult to make.

Chuntao finished the fresh flower cakes in a short while. Jiang Youning ate the fresh flower cakes and was immediately satisfied.

Nan Mianmian smelled the fragrance when she came. As a pregnant woman, she has been worried these days and her taste has become very picky.

Leng Xiao can't do anything about her.

"Madam, what are you eating?"

Jiang Youning saw Nan Mianmian coming and asked her to sit down.

"I'm eating fresh flower cakes, you can try it too."

Nan Mianmian looked at the fresh flower petals on the table. They smelled very fragrant. She couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in her mouth. It was crispy, sweet and tasted good.

"What's the filling in it?"

Jiang Youning smiled and said, "These are fresh petals from the garden. Chuntao and I just picked them. They are very fresh."

Nan Mianmian saw the petals in the yard when she just came in. They were very beautiful. She didn't expect that they could be used as fillings.

"It's still the first time that fresh flowers can be used to make cakes, but the taste is really good."

Jiang Youning smiled and said, "Of course, this is a fresh flower cake, with a rich taste and a fragrance of flowers."

Nan Mianmian ate two pieces in a row and still felt that she couldn't eat enough. She picked up another piece and put it into her mouth and took a bite.

Jiang Youning ate four pieces and felt a little thirsty. She picked up the teacup in front of her and passed it to her mouth and took a few sips.

Nan Mianmian ate three pieces to satisfy her gluttony, and only then did she start to complain.

"Leng Xiao has changed recently. Whenever I eat something, he stops me from eating."

Jiang Youning felt like she had found a soulmate. "Xie Jing is the same. He controls me to eat this and that. I'm almost craving it."

Nan Mianmian thought that Leng Xiao was just like that, but she didn't expect Xie Jing to be like that too.

"Being a pregnant woman is hard enough, and you're not allowed to eat this or that. Today I'm finally satisfied."

Nan Mianmian couldn't help but pick up another piece of fresh flower cake and started eating.

Jiang Youning knew from the speed at which Nan Mianmian ate the fresh flower cake that she had really been craving it for a long time.

She looked down at her belly. There were still five months left, which meant that she would be controlled for five months, which was simply killing her.

Xiao Yu hadn't come for a while, and today she couldn't help but come secretly, and didn't dare to bring any food.

Jiang Youning couldn't help being excited when she saw Xiao Yu coming, but she was a little disappointed when she saw that he only held his son and didn't bring any food.

"Why didn't you bring any food?"

Xiao Yu touched his nose, and didn't dare to mention Xie Jing, so he had to find an excuse himself, "My wife wouldn't let me buy any food. She said that eating less, a small child is good for childbirth. I haven't given birth, but I saw my wife giving birth with my own eyes, and I felt so distressed at the time. The grandmother-in-law also said that it was fortunate that the child was small, if it was bigger, it would be more painful."

Xiao Yu's description was so vivid that Jiang Youning was really scared.

Xiao Yu has always been able to make the dead look alive in this regard, not to mention that you really can't eat too much.

"It's too scary, I'd better bear it."

Jiang Youning patted her chest, she couldn't stand the pain.

Seeing that she believed him, Xiao Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yaa!"

Xiao Yu heard his son's voice, looked down, and found that his son was grabbing his clothes, opening his mouth and babbling. He looked at Jiang Youning with a smile, "Ning'er, my son wants to talk to his future wife."

Jiang Youning glanced at Xiao Yu, who seemed to understand his son's thoughts very well, and looked down at Tao Su in his arms. He was stretching out his two hands at this moment, and it really looked like that. Jiang Youning

had no choice but to take Tao Su and put it on his lap.

As soon as she settled down, Tao Su's two hands touched her belly. She didn't expect that at the beginning, she even asked them to help find the target.

"Tao Su is getting better and better."

"Of course, don't you see whose son it is?" Xiao Yu looked down at his son. He felt that he didn't have to worry about his son chasing his wife in the future.

Jiang Youning: "..." What's the difference between this and bragging about yourself?

When I was seven months pregnant, my belly grew a lot.

At night, Xie Jing would lie on his belly and listen to the movement inside. Suddenly, a bulge appeared in his belly, just right on Xie Jing's handsome face.

Jiang Youning happened to see this scene. Before she could react, Xie Jing raised his head and looked at Jiang Youning. His deep voice was full of surprise, "Aning, my son kicked me."

Jiang Youning laughed, "How did he kick you?"

"My son kicked me in the face." Xie Jing put his face against her belly again, but was kicked again, which made Xie Jing laugh.

"My son kicked me again."

This time, Xie Jing did not put his face against her belly, but stared at her belly without blinking.

Jiang Youning was also amused. She looked down at her belly. Just after she was calm for a while, her belly bulged again, and it looked like a small fist.

Xie Jing saw it and carefully put his slender fingers on the small fist.

As soon as it touched, the small fist disappeared.

Xie Jing, a man of steel, thought it was a bit funny. After waiting for a while, seeing that his son did not respond, he could not help but touch his wife's belly.

"Son? Come, compete with your father to see whose fist is bigger and whose fist is harder."

Jiang Youning looked at the future father Xie Jing and couldn't help laughing. She thought Xiao Yu was exaggerated enough, but she didn't expect there was something more exaggerated here.

"She doesn't understand, so it's useless for you to say it."

In fact, she knew that her son was moving in her belly. When she just stretched out her fist, she clearly felt how powerful her son was moving inside.

As a result, the next second, a small fist propped up the belly, which was a little bulging, as if testing him.

Xie Jing did not rush to reach out and press his son's hand.

The small fist disappeared, and then a small fist bulged on the other side.

Xie Jing saw it and laughed, "Feint to the east and attack in the west, good son, he will definitely be a military general in the future."

Jiang Youning's smile froze. Can you see the talent of a military general just like this?

Your eyes are more fiery than Monkey King's.

"What if it's a girl, let's see what you will do."

Xie Jing said indifferently: "Whether it's a boy or a girl, I like it. Girls can also be generals."

Jiang Youning did not comment. There were many generals in ancient times.

Women are not inferior to men, Hua Mulan, Fan Lihua, Mu Guiying and so on!

She looked down at her belly. It's not bad to be a female general.

Xie Jing said this now, but he will be a different person after having a daughter.

He will say, how can a daughter who is so delicate and soft be able to wield a gun and a stick?

After the shock from Xiao Yu, Jiang Youning did try to restrain herself from eating, but she just couldn't help herself when she was greedy. At

this moment, in the corner of the garden, Jiang Youning was holding a roast duck, looking around, and seeing that no one was coming, she lowered her head and took a big bite, "It smells so good!"

It's been a long time since I've eaten roasted food. I dreamed of roast duck last night, so I have to eat it in a few days.

Chuntao put ginger tea in front of her and reminded her, "Girl, eat slowly, no one will notice."

"You don't know, Xie Jing's nose is sharper than a dog's. I only ate three pieces of meat cakes a few days ago, and he guessed it."

Jiang Youning said and lowered her head to take another bite. If she didn't eat a little more this time, Xie Jing would find out and he wouldn't be able to eat it.

Chuntao felt very distressed when she saw the girl like this.

"Don't worry, girl, I'll keep you safe."

"Yeah." Jiang Youning ate several mouthfuls in a row and felt a little greasy. She picked up the teacup in front of her and passed it to her mouth to drink a few sips, and then continued to gnaw on the roast duck leg.

As soon as Xie Jing stepped into Lingxi Courtyard, he smelled the aroma of roast duck. Needless to say, his wife was eating secretly again.

During this period of time, his wife was indeed restraining herself from eating less.

Xie Jing walked over following the smell, and from a distance he saw a person sitting on a stool in the corner. The person had a bulging belly and legs spread out, and she didn't act like a general's wife at all.

He walked over helplessly.

Jiang Youning was eating with relish, and she caught a glimpse of a tall figure walking towards her from the corner of her eye.

With just a glance, she recognized that the person was Xie Jing.

She was so scared that she threw the roast duck into the flowerbed behind her, and it hit the cat in the flowers. The cat saw the roast duck, squinted its eyes, picked up the roast duck and ran away.

Jiang Youning took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, smiling at Xie Jing who had already walked over. She pretended to yawn with her hand covering her mouth to block the smell of roast duck in her mouth.

"Husband, you came back so early today, aren't you busy?"

"Not busy, what are you doing here?" Xie Jing's eyes passed through Jiang Youning's shoulder and fell on the flowerbed behind her.

Jiang Youning was afraid that Xie Jing would smell the roast duck, so she stepped forward and put her arm around him and said, "Husband, let's go into the house and talk first."

Xie Jing took a look at the roast duck that she had thrown into the flowerbed, and followed his wife into the house.

The first thing Jiang Youning did when she entered the house was to pick up the tea on the table and drink a few gulps to get rid of the smell of roast duck in her mouth.

If Xie Jing suddenly gets the urge to kiss her, she'll be doomed.

Good night, babies!
