Xu Sui still prefers children who are sweet and soft, like Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan. Although they can be a little noisy sometimes, they are very well-behaved most of the time.

Many naughty kids are brought up by their parents' negligence.

She nodded and said, "I'll think about it when I get back."

Xu Mian's thoughts in this regard are still relatively traditional. She believes that women must study and have their own jobs, but she would find it strange if they don't have children.

Seeing that her sister had listened, she felt relieved, "Now that you are married and have a stable job, school... is becoming more and more leisurely, and your family is getting bigger. If you have a baby by then, Yes, I can still help.”

After Xu Mian was out of the period, she had to take care of herself, thanks to Mrs. Wang who would come to check on her and lend a hand from time to time.

Babies in the first few months of life are not difficult to take care of. Most of the time, they eat and sleep, and rarely make noises. What is really difficult is the next few months. Not only do they like to cry, but it is also difficult to coax them to sleep.

Xu Mian still feels sad when she thinks about it now, but she feels soft again when she thinks of her two daughters.

But who would have thought that just one month after this chat, Xu Mian was the first to get pregnant.

It was Mrs. Wang who discovered this first.

Although Xu Mian already had experience, when she gave birth to Tuantuan and Yuanyuan, because they were twins and the amniotic fluid was not very good, during a checkup after giving birth to them, the doctor told her that it might be difficult for her to get pregnant again.

Even though the doctor said it was possible, Xu Mian knew it would be difficult to have children in the future.

She told Xu Bing about this, and Xu Bing asked her not to tell anyone else, as only they and their wife knew about it.

She also knew that once she told the truth, she would be drowned by rumors. The reality was that a woman who couldn't get pregnant would be looked down upon. Xu Mian would be under a lot of pressure. Xu Bing wanted to protect her and even comforted her that having two children together was enough.

So when Xu Mian became more and more sleepy and easily fatigued, she didn't think about it. It was not until Mrs. Wang, who came to the house several times in a row, noticed something was wrong and asked her to go for a check-up.

Xu Mian felt like she was dreaming when she came back with the report. Xu Bing had gone out on a mission and would not be back for two days, so she ran to Xu Sui's house first.

"Sui Sui, I'm pregnant!" She didn't know what emotions she should feel for a moment. She felt excited, surprised, and a little confused.

"Really?" Xu Sui was also a little surprised.

My sister is pregnant with a baby, and I will have a nephew or niece in the future. This feeling is a bit strange.

Xu Mian touched her belly, and even Xu Sui followed suit and put her hand there curiously.

She laughed when she saw her sister's movements, "It's only been over a month, and her belly is still flat."

Xu Sui withdrew her hand and asked Xu Mian to sit down quickly.

Xu Mian had not returned home since she came back from the hospital, and went straight to Xu Sui's house, with Wang Sao helping to take care of Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan.

She was still a little hesitant at this moment, "If Tuantuan and Yuanyuan knew about this, would they be unwilling?"

Xu Mian and Xu Bing doted on Tuantuan and Yuanyuan very much. They usually didn't scold their children like some other families did. They also made plans early on to arrange everything for the two girls so that they could live a worry-free life.

At first, Zhang Yunxiu had saved a sum of money for her and Sui Sui respectively, starting when their living conditions improved, specifically as dowries for the two of them.

Xu Mian also learned from her. Whether it was used as a dowry or for the child's own emergency use, it would be good.

But now things have gone awry.

Nowadays, no one would have an abortion, and Xu Mian didn't have this idea in her mind. If she was pregnant, she would definitely give birth to the child. Besides, she herself was happy about the arrival of this child.

At least it proves that her body is normal.

She was struggling with how to tell Tuantuan and Yuanyuan the news. "They always fight over everything. They were afraid that they would be unhappy if they had another sister or brother."

Xu Sui smiled and said, "Didn't I hear them say before that they hope you can have another child? That way they can be better than other families. Tuantuan and Yuanyuan are still very well behaved. I will go back with you later. Of course, you have to tell me about this yourself."

"But sister, don't neglect Tuantuan and Yuanyuan or show partiality just because you're pregnant or have a new baby. Children are very smart and they will feel it and be affected. It's also best not to let others say similar things around them, as children will take it seriously."

Xu Sui had never taken care of a child, but she worked as a tutor for a period of time. The eldest son of that family was only eight or nine years old. It was said that he was very lively when he was young, but after his younger brother was born, his personality gradually became sensitive and he became inferior.

Xu Mian nodded.

She had never thought about this before, and she thought she should find a more tactful way to tell the two children the news.

Xu Mian's pregnancy did not cause any commotion in the family compound.

In their opinion, it was very strange that Xu Mianhuai took several hours for the first one and several hours for the second one.

What they were more interested in staring at was Xu Sui's belly. After all, Xu Sui married well, and she lived a good life, with the smell of meat in the house every day.

Before, someone tried to ask the child to go over and have a meal, but thinking that young people are shy, they tried twice. Others also felt itchy and asked their children to follow suit. Who knew that Xu Sui would smile and say something to the child afterwards? The child came back on his own and not only refused to go again, but also refused to do other petty things.

Only then did they realize that this seemingly young and pretty girl was not a pushover.

Sun Ximei, who lives across from Xu Mian's house, is so jealous because she has lost something that can make her better than Xu Mian!

Before, she wanted to follow Xu Mian's example and let her cousin come over to marry a military officer. However, after her cousin came, no one wanted to see her because she was plain-looking and uneducated. Later, she set her sights on her sister.

As a result, Sun Ximei was scolded by her husband, who told her to ask her cousin to return home as soon as possible.

Sun Ximei felt aggrieved. She thought she was doing good things, but why didn't she get any good results?

She had been in the army for so long that she had forgotten her life in the countryside. She had to do farm work from childhood to adulthood, and endured day after day under the scorching sun. Even if she was pregnant, she still had to work before giving birth. How attractive was life in the courtyard to her?

When Xu Bing came back and heard the news, he was somewhat confused and surprised.

Although he had long accepted the fact that this generation would have two children, he was also a relatively traditional man.

After learning that his wife was pregnant again and the doctor said she was in very good condition, he refused to let Xu Mian do any heavy work after returning home.
