Xiao Jiahua: “…”
Although she and Bai Keyan suspended their contraceptive plan after their work became stable, they decided to let nature take its course.
Even though the baby came unexpectedly, she still felt it was magical and surprising.
Cui Lifen was even more frightened. She called her daughter into the room and taught her a lot of knowledge about pregnancy and childbirth.
As for Bai Keyan, he was so careless that he didn't even notice his wife was pregnant, and he even allowed her to go on a long journey by train. He was also severely criticized by Bai Heyi.
.
At night, Xiao Dabao and Xiao Shitou both stayed in Xiao Jiahua's room, clinging and refusing to leave.
They already knew that Xiao Jiahua was pregnant. They felt a mixture of sweet and sour feelings in their hearts, but they couldn't say it out loud.
The two children could only snuggle up to her, calling her "Mom" all the time, which was a disguised way of declaring their sovereignty.
Xiao Jiahua said with a smile: "Don't worry, no matter if you have a brother or a sister in the future, you two will always be my good children, and I will always be your mother."
After finally coaxing his two sons to sleep, Xiao Jiahua also fell into a drowsy dream.
In the dream, past and present lives flashed alternately.
Waking up suddenly, Xiao Jiahua looked at the two sleeping children and suddenly felt fortunate that she was still in this world.
The yard is full of stars, and the night is as bright as day.
Bai Keyan sat under the grape trellis, bent over a stone mortar, fiddling with something.
Seeing Xiao Jiahua coming out, he immediately stood up, picked her up by the waist and put her on the rattan chair, not wanting to let her move for even a step.
"I'm not that delicate!"
Xiao Jiahua put her arms around his neck and kissed the corner of his lips.
"Don't make a fuss. The children are in the house and will see you."
As Bai Keyan spoke, he dipped his hand into the herbal juice in the stone mortar and applied it carefully on her arms and ankles, making her feel refreshed.
"What is this?" Xiao Jiahua asked.
Bai Keyan replied: "Mosquito repellent grass, the prescription given by Doctor Zheng."
"Don't we have it with us?"
She had just applied it to Xiao Dabao and Xiao Shitou.
“This one is more suitable for pregnant women.”
Bai Keyan sat down beside her, feeling cautious yet helpless. He touched her belly, where the fruit of their love was growing.
He said guiltily: "I'm sorry, Xiaoxiao, I was too careless."
If Xiao Jiahua had any accident due to health reasons during the journey, he would surely die.
Xiao Jiahua was moved.
She murmured, "Bai Keyan, do you believe in past lives and present lives? Do you believe that someone can travel through time and space and wander freely between the past and the future?"
Bai Keyan was stunned for a moment. This obviously exceeded the cognition of a materialist.
But why, when he looked into her eyes, he saw anxiety, loneliness, and strong expectations.
"I believe it." Bai Keyan replied.
As if discussing academic matters, his tone was very serious: "Scientist Einstein once said that the faster an object is, the slower its relative time is. If it reaches the speed of light, time will stand still. If it exceeds the speed of light, perhaps time will flow backwards?"
"..." Xiao Jiahua never expected that a simple emotional question from him would lead to him being educated on the theory of relativity.
Probably thinking that she didn't understand, Bai Keyan pointed to the starry sky above his head and continued: "These stars seem to be very close to us. But in fact, because they are too far away, what we see may just be the projections they left five hundred or one thousand miles ago."
Xiao Jiahua suddenly had an idea: "So, relative to us now, the stars are the past. And relative to the stars now, we are the future?"
Bai Keyan hugged her: "Yes, compared to now, every moment is unique, the real present."
Xiao Jiahua understood. Because it is precious, it is real, and therefore worth cherishing.
She leaned on the man's shoulder and said affectionately: "Bai Keyan, no matter in the past or in the future, you are unique and the one I love the most."
Xiao Jiahua is not someone who expresses love easily. Strictly speaking, when she expressed her love passionately for the first time, she expected an equal response.
However, Bai Keyan suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and just touched her forehead with his burning cheek.
"Xiaoxiao, you should go back to bed."
The most lifelike and simple words are often the most eternal and sincere expressions of emotion.
Steadily, Bai Keyan picked up Xiao Jiahua again, his beloved.
Every step they take is under the lingering starlight.
From the past to the future, it remains unchanged forever.
