The staple foods include steamed buns, steamed bread, and rice. I don’t see any coarse grains at all. I wonder what others would think if they saw this.
Jiang Shumeng picked up a towel and wiped the dining table. After arranging the chairs, Xia Jinnian came back with Zhao Jie and several of his brothers.
It was Zhao Jie who took the initiative to greet Jiang Shumeng and asked her how she was getting used to living here, without seeming shy at all.
Jiang Shumeng responded very politely, saying that she was used to it and that Sister Tang was very nice to her and even prepared daily necessities for her.
Xia Jinnian: "Please sit down first. I'll go to the kitchen to help serve the dishes. If you have anything to say, we can talk while we eat."
Everyone sat down readily, and soon Xia Jinnian and Jiang Shumeng brought all the dishes to the table.
Tang Shiyan took out some drinks and white wine. It was evening anyway and they didn't have to train.
It’s okay to drink a little white wine, but I wouldn’t dare give it to them if we were training during the day, for fear of causing trouble.
This time, Tang Shiyan didn't even drink her drink. Xia Jinnian noticed that she seemed unwell and quickly asked in a low voice, "Wife, are you feeling unwell? I see you haven't even drunk your drink."
Tang Shiyan: "Jinnian, I'm fine. Let's eat first. We can't affect everyone's mood. I'll tell you some good news later."
Xia Jinnian: "Okay, wife, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me, you can't just bear it."
"Yeah, Jinnian, I get it. Give me a bowl of chicken soup first. I cooked it for two hours and it's delicious. Tell them to drink some too."
Xia Jinnian: "Wife, they are grown men now, don't spoil them too much. If they want to drink, they will drink on their own. You have worked hard to make it and put it on the table. Wouldn't it be stupid to yell at them?"
Zhao Jie took the initiative to pick up some food for Jiang Shumeng and also picked up a bowl to serve her a bowl of chicken soup. He seemed very considerate, and Jiang Shumeng did not refuse. Everyone saw this and thought that there was definitely a chance for these two people.
Forty minutes later, after finishing their meal, Jiang Shumeng knew that Tang Shiyan was pregnant, so she asked her to sit in the living room and rest, and left the cleaning of the dishes to them.
Several people cleaned up the dishes and cleaned the room, and they finished everything in no time.
Zhou Jinrui, Su Chengyuan, and Feng Shuhuai quickly found excuses to go back to the dormitory. Zhao Jie of course knew what they meant. They wanted to give him and Jiang Shumeng some space to be alone.
So he took the initiative to invite Jiang Shumeng to go for a walk and chat outside. An hour later, Tang Shiyan saw the immense joy on Jiang Shumeng's face when he came back, and she knew that they must have had a very happy chat.
As long as nothing unexpected happens, after the two of them have spent some time together and are sure that they are suitable for each other, Zhao Jie can take leave and go back to hold the wedding banquet.
After Jiang Shumeng returned to her room, Tang Shiyan and Xia Jinnian also returned to their rooms. Tang Shiyan took Xia Jinnian's hand and placed it on her belly and said:
"Jinnian, I think I'm pregnant. You're going to be a father. Are you happy?"
Xia Jinnian: "Wife, are you serious? Am I going to be a father? Of course I'm happy, but I'm sorry for the hard work."
Tang Shiyan: "I took my own pulse and it seems that there is more than one, either triplets or twins, so I decided to go to the hospital for an ultrasound tomorrow."
Xia Jinnian: "Wife, I'm not busy tomorrow morning. I'll accompany you to the hospital for a checkup and call your grandparents and parents to let them know."
Tang Shiyan: "Well! We'll know whether it's triplets or twins after we go to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow."
Xia Jinnian rested his head on Tang Shiyan's belly and said, "Baby, I'm your daddy. You have to be good in your mommy's belly."
"Don't be naughty and bother your mother, or I will spank your little butts when you are born."
Tang Shiyan: "Jinnian, I just got pregnant not long ago. I'm still a little baby. How can I understand what you are saying? You are too anxious."
"Even if he was born, he would still be very small. How could you bear to hit him? He is so young and doesn't know anything."
"I just cry when I'm hungry, and I cry when I have trouble pooping. Anyway, everything is painful."
Xia Jinnian: "Wife, isn't it that I want to cultivate a relationship with them earlier? Shouldn't relationships be cultivated from a young age?"
"I believe our children will be very good and obedient, and won't cry easily. If they are disobedient and like to cry, I will throw them aside."
"If it was a daughter, I would comfort her well. But if it was a son, I wouldn't comfort him. It's not like a man to cry all day long."
Tang Shiyan pinched Xia Jinnian fiercely and said, "Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? What nonsense are you talking about? The son and daughter are all your children."
"We must treat everyone equally and not show partiality. You must not learn to favor girls over boys."
"If you dare to leave your son alone, do you believe I will kick you under the bed?"
Xia Jinnian: "Wife, you're so cruel! You pinched my hand so hard it's red. It hurts so much."
"Isn't it okay for me to just joke? Boy or girl, they are my treasures. How could I bear to throw them aside?"
"I think you don't love me anymore now that you have a baby? Woohoo, I'm so sad!"
Tang Shiyan: "Humph, don't act like a spoiled child with me. After we have a baby, we have to see how you perform. If you perform well, I will love you more. If you don't perform well, get out of here. Who told you to be so cunning?"
"I'm telling you, from now on you have to hold it in and don't even think about touching me, understand? Oh! Having a baby is great, I can finally take a break."
Xia Jinnian: "Hmph, my dear wife, you are too heartless, aren't you? You are gloating over someone else's misfortune. Aren't you worried that holding me back for so long will make me sick? What will happen to your happy life in the future?"
"If it really doesn't work, don't you have other ways? You can also help me like you did before we got married."
"Or do you really not love me anymore now that you have a baby, and don't care whether I feel uncomfortable or not?"
Tang Shiyan: "Stop it, how can you, a grown man, be so unreasonable? Can't you just be a little more normal? Believe it or not, I'm going to kick you under the bed right now."
Xia Jinnian: "Wife, don't be angry, I was just teasing you. You are pregnant now, you can't touch me all the time."
"We have to be careful with the baby in our belly. You have to be patient during this period and be a gentle little woman, understand?"
Tang Shiyan: "I just can't change my temper. If you want someone gentle and delicate, go find someone else. I heard that several military doctors liked you very much."
"If you don't like it, don't we still have the art troupe? They are good dancers."
"They have such great figures and are pretty. I guess there are a lot of boys in your army who like them."
