The ordinary, warm and leisurely days passed quickly. More than a month had passed in the blink of an eye. After the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, the days passed even faster, and soon it would be the end of the year.
Shen Qingli's baby is already over three months old. Perhaps because of her tall and slender figure, she doesn't look pregnant.
Apart from the unstable appetite and temper caused by the unstable progesterone in the first few days of early pregnancy, everything is fine now. Sometimes she even forgets that she is pregnant... She feels no different from usual?
In the meantime, Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng came over once and brought a lot of meat, eggs, malted milk and other things. Mrs. Shen also came over once and stayed for two days, also bringing a lot of things.
"Meng Xiaoxiao."
Shen Qingli curled up her toes.
"Hmm?" Meng Xiao was washing her feet, drying them, and cutting her nails. Hearing this, he looked up with a questioning look in his eyes.
"I want to go home and stay for a few days. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. This is the first year I won't be at home for the New Year. I want to go back and spend time with my parents." She has been thinking about this idea for a few days.
"We can go to Shen's house for the New Year this year!"
Meng Xiao didn't think it was a big deal, as he had been out on missions during the Chinese New Year several times before.
Shen Qingli shook his head slightly:
"This is our first year of marriage, so it's reasonable for us to celebrate the New Year at the Meng family. Let's do it next year. We can go back to my parents' house for the New Year after that."
Meng Xiao pursed his lips slightly: "Wife, you don't have to worry about me, you don't have to worry about anyone else, I will accompany you wherever you want."
Shen Qingli smiled.
She thought her Meng Xiaoxiao was really good, especially good! Really!
"Let's stay at the Meng family's. But I want to stay with my parents for a few days first, and then go back after the New Year."
"Okay, I'll borrow the brigade commander's car to take you back tomorrow night, okay?
"Eh? Wife, how about this? I'll submit my annual leave application, and it should be approved in about a week. After we go back and celebrate the New Year, I'll go home with you and stay for a few days, okay?"
He didn't want to be separated from his little girl for even a day, so he came up with a compromise.
Shen Qingli thought about it and decided it was okay. It didn't matter whether she went back before or after the New Year. Her parents would probably be busy at the factory before the New Year, so she shouldn't go back and cause more trouble.
"Okay! It's done. Put it in bed while it's still warm."
Meng Xiao placed a large soft pillow behind her back, tucked the quilt under her legs, and washed himself with the water in the basin.
"Please change the basin. I have already washed them." Shen Qingli said angrily.
"You are my wife, I don't dislike you, and besides, your feet are clean, why can't I wash them with the water you used?"
Meng Xiao looked at her, with a hint of smile in his voice.
"What? Do you dislike yourself? Or do you dislike me?" He went out to splash water and came back to ask again.
"I don't dislike it, I just feel a little awkward." Shen Qingli's face turned slightly red.
"Huh? Your face is red? Let me see." Meng Xiao crawled into the quilt and lifted her face.
"Go away, I want to watch a show." Shen Qingli picked up the tablet and put it on his lap.
"Stop watching the show, wife, look at me!" He took her tablet and threw it on the bed.
"Why am I looking at you? Is there something on your face? Give it back to me!" Shen Qingli knew what he wanted to do. She shyly avoided his fiery gaze and didn't look at him.
"Wife!" Seeing the little girl's evasive look, he directly pulled her hand towards her.
Shen Qingli's face flushed visibly. She quickly pulled her hand back.
"It's been more than three months. I asked the doctor today and he said it's okay. It's okay if it's a little mild." He held the person in his arms and coaxed her softly.
"Meng Xiaoxiao! Do you have any shame? You're asking the doctor this question! How are you going to face people in the future?" She was anxious! She really didn't expect him to actually ask this question.
"It's okay, my wife, I miss you so much!"
Meng Xiao stopped her from saying anything before she could even open her mouth, and then?
Then I half-heartedly agreed to his request.
During this period, she had seen his restraint.
Not only Meng Xiao is greedy for her,
She is greedy for him too!
…
Even though the doctor said it was okay, the two of them didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and Meng Xiao let her go just once.
After cleaning up, the little girl hugged him and closed her eyes in satisfaction.
The next morning, when Meng Xiao woke up refreshed and went to the team for morning training with everyone, Shen Qingli was still asleep. When she woke up at noon, she saw Meng Kexin who had returned with Meng Xiao.
"When did Ke Xin come?"
Shen Qingli was a little surprised. She was quite bored being alone every day. She was really happy to see Meng Kexin.
"Sister-in-law, my brother called me yesterday and said he was worried you'd be too bored at home, so he asked me to come and keep you company. So, I went to Uncle Lin this morning and asked him to send me over!"
Meng Kexin held Shen Qingli's arm affectionately. She continued, "I've packed my clothes and am planning to stay for a few days. I'll go back with you guys to celebrate the New Year. Sister-in-law, please don't think I'm annoying!"
"I'm so happy that you're here to accompany me. Why should I bother you? Put your things in the house quickly. Let's cook and eat first. After dinner, I'll clean up your bedroom for you." Shen Qingli said as he pulled Meng Kexin into the house.
"What do you want to eat? Ask your brother to make it! He's a pretty good cook now."
Hearing this, Meng Kexin was a little surprised: "Sister-in-law, you are really amazing. You have trained such a big devil to be able to handle both the living room and the kitchen!"
"Who are you calling the Big Devil? The bully before, now the Big Devil? Meng Kexin, how many nicknames have you given me?"
Meng Xiao asked, reaching out to give her a smack. Meng Kexin hid behind Shen Qingli and made a face at him.
Meng Xiao glared at her, then asked Shen Qingli gently, "What do you want to eat?"
