Yu'er seemed to know I was pregnant; his little hands liked to touch my belly, saying, "Mommy~"
He can call out "Mother" now and understands things, but he can't explain them clearly.
"Yu'er, Mother will give you a little brother and a little sister."
"Beep beep, baa baa." Yu'er laughed beside me. I was just about to pick him up and put him on the bed to play when Xie Yuancheng came in.
"Ying'er, you're trying to move again!"
"I didn't, it was Yu'er. I can't possibly see her running under the bed, can I?"
He is my good son, so small that he's not very steady on his feet, and he walks like a little duck learning to walk.
"I'll carry you."
Xie Yuancheng had just picked up Yu'er when the father and son sat on the other side of the bed laughing. That little rascal Yu'er was laughing so hard, I just wanted to hug him.
"Yuancheng~" I tugged at his clothes: "Let me hug my precious son."
"Yu'er, will you let your mother hold you?" Xie Yuancheng, that bastard, what can he say when he's so young?
Yu'er shook her head and pointed at my stomach, saying, "Beep beep, baa baa."
"They are a younger brother and sister."
Xie Yuancheng patiently corrected Yu'er's pronunciation. Yu'er's voice was already cute, and as she followed along, my hand, which was touching my belly, trembled.
"Xie Yuancheng, don't go too far!" I gritted my teeth in hatred. That bastard, all he cares about is his own amusement.
"Ying'er, I'm taking care of Yu'er, how can you wrong me?"
Xie Yuancheng brought Yu'er over for me to see, and that calmed me down. But he just held her and wouldn't let me touch her.
"Waaah, my sweet son." I reached out and touched Yu'er's face, and he was smiling.
Xie Yuancheng held him and swayed him in front of me, but wouldn't let me hold him, saying it would put pressure on my stomach.
In the end, Yu'er didn't get a hug and was even angered by Xie Yuancheng. After he took Yu'er to her mother's place, I called Anxiang in and asked her to help close the door so that Xie Yuancheng wouldn't be allowed in for the next few days.
I sleep wrapped in my blanket. My body feels heavy now, and with the cold weather, I don't want to go out.
I only go out for walks at noon and in the afternoon, and Xie Yuancheng always says that I've entered the retirement era ahead of schedule.
I have no idea how many new and interesting things he learned in 2020, but he was able to apply them all to his life as soon as he came back. Even his witty remarks can make me angry.
He definitely came to annoy me on purpose. It's because I've been too nice to Wan'er and Anxiang. He even carried Yu'er around everywhere and then criticized me!
As I drifted off to sleep, I noticed someone beside me. I pulled out a short knife from under my pillow. The blade was barely lit before it was pressed down, and Xie Yuancheng's face appeared before my eyes.
"Ying'er, are you trying to murder your husband in the middle of the day?!"
"Get away from me, stay away from me, I hate seeing you." I turned to the side and slowly turned around. I'm not even five months pregnant yet, but this pregnancy is even harder than my first.
"Okay, it was my fault. I'll apologize to you, okay?"
I simply closed my eyes and ignored him. He's always out here with his son, why would he come here?
"Ying'er~" Xie Yuancheng's shamelessness hadn't diminished at all: "I wasn't jealous when you were so close to those girls, but you ignored me after I only held my son for a few days."
I don't want to leave you, you bad man. I'll keep my eyes closed and go to sleep. I'm not going to reason with a little man like you.
Xie Yuancheng finally stopped talking, and the surroundings were extremely quiet. I thought he had left. He walks silently, and it's only when he leaves that it becomes so quiet.
When I opened my eyes, I was surprised to see Xie Yuancheng's face magnified in front of me. I quickly pushed him away and said, "What's wrong!"
"You've finally opened your eyes. I'll take you out for a walk today."
I touched my stomach and shook my head: "I'm not going."
"It's already November, and it's starting to snow outside. It's very beautiful."
"I saw it yesterday, and I didn't appreciate your kindness." No matter what you say, don't think I'll back down. I told you I wouldn't let you in, and you still climbed through the window!
Xie Yuancheng propped himself up on his hands and looked at me: "Wherever Ying'er wants to go, I'll go with you."
I turned to my side and leaned against the pillow: "Where I go is my own business, it's none of your concern."
Xie Yuancheng remained silent behind me. Just as I was about to close my eyes, he rolled off the bed, quickly put on his clothes, and went out.
I wasn't going with him anyway. Just as I was about to close my eyes, a warm coat was suddenly put on me. Xie Yuancheng lifted me up, and he also had to watch my stomach.
"What are you doing? Put me down." Xie Yuancheng didn't say a word, just picked me up and went out the door.
It was so cold outside, so I reached out and hugged him. He had gained a little weight during his time at the manor, but only compared to before; he was still thin.
It was really snowing outside. Xie Yuancheng led me directly to a pavilion not far away, where he sat on a bench. Snowflakes had been falling outside for a long time, so the bench must have been very cold.
"Put me down quickly." Even if he had the strength, he shouldn't be holding me like this.
“Ying’er, you wanted to break up with me when you were eighteen. We’ve only been together for a little over two years now. You’re twenty this year and you told me not to interfere in your affairs.”
"I... I was just talking nonsense, making you and Yu'er so close."
He got angry with me because of this, and even took me out into the cold wind. I pulled a bit of my thermal shawl out and covered his stomach and chest with it.
“Yu’er is our child. Now that you’re pregnant, if I don’t play with him, do you still expect your father and mother to run off with Yu’er?”
I could only bury my head in his arms, and he continued, "You play with girls every day, while Yu'er is still so young."
"Okay, I won't say anything more. You did everything right." I pouted and turned away. He could talk about anything.
He actually patted my butt, and even though it was light, I still felt embarrassed: "It's so pitiful for Yu'er to have a mother like you. He can't walk yet, so he's left aside. Now that he can walk, he can't be with him."
"Put me down first. Even if it's snowing, it won't be good if someone sees us later."
Stop changing the subject!
I struggled in his arms, and his cloak fell off his back. "You're dressed so lightly, what will happen to Yu'er and me if you get sick? Quickly put your cloak back on!"
Xie Yuancheng didn't move. I reached behind him and he grabbed my hand with his free hand: "You're almost five months pregnant now, do you want to fall to the ground?"
"Then pick up the cloak, or I'll struggle."
Xie Yuancheng glared at me, and I leaned against him, feeling wronged. He was clearly in the wrong, so how did it become my fault?
He really wouldn't pick it up, so I had no choice but to break free and hug his back: "Yuancheng, the snow is getting heavy, hurry up and pick up the cloak."
"No, just leave it cold, you can't see it anyway."
Xie Yuancheng was particularly determined this time. He wanted to play the victim and make me feel guilty, and I was the one who felt particularly ashamed!
