Chapter 217 Baby Mingxia
Lu Miao lowered his head like an ostrich, feeling a little embarrassed.
She actually found it a bit corny.
Fu Jingyou didn't care, he stopped her with his big hand and patted her on the back gently:
"It sounds good. I like it. I want to hear you scream."
“…”
Lu Miao bit his lower lip and pouted as he shouted:
"Brother You!"
She speaks standard Mandarin, without a strong Beijing accent, and speaks softly, as if she is acting coquettishly.
Fu Jingyou was so surprised that even Ling's lips curled up.
"Um."
Lu Miao held his lower lip and adjusted himself for a while, then thought it was nothing.
In the past, people could casually call foreign friends "Hani" or "baby", so why should they be embarrassed about calling them "Brother You"?
He is her husband, not anyone else.
Lu Miao thought about it, adjusted himself to a more comfortable position, and snuggled into Fu Jingyou's arms with his back to him.
Fu Jingyou carefully stroked her abdomen with one hand, and let her hold his other hand and play with it while resting her arm on it:
"Tianjin is an industrial city, and many things in it should be the same as in Beijing. For example, the water for washing is all piped tap water."
Lu Miao thought about it and explained to him:
"If you go there and they tell you to go to the water room to get some water, look for that little knob sticking out of the pipe that looks like a small bicycle wheel. That's the switch. Grip it and turn it two turns to the right to get water. To turn it off, just turn it back."
"And the bathroom, that is, the toilet."
"If it's an indoor toilet, it usually flushes. The switch is a naturally hanging rope, about a foot long... You can see it when you're standing."
When Fu Jingyou came to the city for the first time, Lu Miao was worried that he didn't know many things and would be looked down upon or bullied, so he kept nagging, recalling everything he could remember and slowly telling him.
Maybe it was because she was more emotional during pregnancy, or maybe it was because Fu Jingyou was leaving tomorrow, Lu Miao felt a little uncomfortable.
As he spoke, his nasal tone suddenly became heavier.
I was just worried that Fu Jingyou would be looked down upon, and now I am becoming more and more worried.
"Why are you crying again, huh? Don't cry all the time, it's bad for your eyes."
Lu Miao sniffed and uttered "hmm".
Fu Jingyou felt bad too. He comforted her while gently caressing her slightly bulging belly:
"Has the baby grown a little bit bigger?"
Lu Miao was diverted and said:
"It's grown quite a bit. It's twelve weeks old now, so it should be the size of an egg."
"It's only that big? Why does it feel a little bulging when I touch it?"
Lu Miao kicked him back, "Is it okay to eat too much dinner? How annoying! Turn off the lights!"
Fu Jingyou laughed in a low, teasing voice, then turned over and went downstairs to turn off the light.
When he got into bed again, he took Lu Miao into his arms again:
"I asked my uncle, and he said that for those of the Ming generation, pregnancy takes ten months, and we're already in the third month, so the baby will be born in September..."
"If it's a boy, let's call him Mingyi, and if it's a girl, let's call her Mingqiu, okay?"
"Mingqiu is not a good name. Let's call her Mingxia."
"But according to the time, the birth date is in autumn."
"Everything withers in autumn, which is a bad omen. If it's a girl, she should be named Mingxia."
Lu Miao said confidently:
"Summer has a scorching sun. I hope she can be as bright and shining as the sun, always happy and bright."
Her voice was soft and gentle as she spoke, and seemed to carry a kind of magic.
Fu Jingyou closed his eyes slightly, and the darkness in front of him gradually flashed with a hint of light, and then a large area of light.
He and Lu Miao lay side by side in the shadow of the trees on the hillside. The dappled summer sunlight was particularly dazzling between the green and swaying branches in front of them.
"Dad, Daddy..."
Hearing the girl's childish and unclear voice, Fu Jingyou sat up and stretched out his hand in one direction:
"Come Mingxia, come to Daddy."
The chubby girl was staggering and was about to jump into his arms when Fu Jingyou was suddenly hit on the head.
Turning back, Lu Miao, wearing a blue jacket and a Guanyin mask, was glaring at him angrily:
"What do you mean by 'Dad, Dad'? You can't call me Dad or Mom, you have to call me Mom and Dad!"
Fu Jingyou was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to respond, his body fell down and he was suddenly awakened from his dream.
Fu Jingyou was stunned for a moment and almost sat up from the bed. Feeling Lu Miao sleeping soundly in his arms, he gradually regained his composure.
He gently held Lu Miao in his arms and stroked her slightly bulging belly with a faint smile.
"Xiao Mingxia, Dad is looking forward to your arrival."
…
Fu Jingyou was taking a train the next evening, so he had to gather at the county office compound before 2 p.m.
When he went out in the morning, Lu Miao cooked ten eggs for him and packed them separately for him to eat on the way.
The county was going to set up a machinery contracting and repairing team, and Fu Jingyou was selected by the county to be sent to a big city to learn technology. This matter had been spreading in the past few days.
So when he left, many people in the production team followed him to see him off and watch the fun.
Chen Miaomiao was also among them.
The clothes Fu Jingyou was wearing were new and had been made at the end of last year by Chen Guifen.
Lu Miao was "pointing and gesturing" on the side. The clothes he was wearing were roughly in the shape of a jacket, but the collar was very straight, looking a bit like a thick cotton shirt.
He is tall and has broad shoulders, and the outfit suits him well.
What he was holding in his hand was the wicker box that Lu Miao had brought back from the countryside.
With his handsome face fully revealed after his short hair was shaved, at first glance, he looked more like a male educated youth than many other male educated youth.
Tall, strong, handsome...
"Don't forget to write home when you get there?"
"Um."
Looking at the man whose eyes were locked with Lu Miao's, Chen Miaomiao suddenly felt a little unfair.
I had originally decided to abandon Fu Xiaoliu as a chess piece, but now at first glance, Fu Xiaoliu seems to be the best choice at the moment.
But this best choice is not hers!
Chen Miaomiao suddenly felt a little unwilling, and even more jealous.
This world is really unfair sometimes!
Why can Lu Miao marry Fu Xiaoliu?
Why does Lu Miao get Fu Xiaoliu's favor?
Why can't she?
Chen Miaomiao couldn't look directly at the beautiful scene of love in front of her, and stared at Lu Miao with a gloomy and somewhat resentful look.
Lu Miao has a good family background, is rich, powerful, beautiful, and well-educated...
She has obviously gained many advantages and benefits!
Why do we have to strive to be the first in everything?
Chen Miaomiao kept watching Lu Miao's movements. Fu Jingyou waved goodbye and left until he could no longer see his back. Only then did Lu Miao and his group turn around and walk back.
Chen Miaomiao's mind echoed with the harsh words Fu Jingyou had said to her before. She suddenly moved forward and walked side by side with Lu Miao.
"Speaking of which, Tianjin is my hometown. It's a big city with all kinds of things..."
"Lu Miao, are you really confident that Fu Xiaoliu will be gone for so long? So far?"
