Xu Mian didn't have any severe reactions in the first few months of her pregnancy. The only symptom of pregnancy was that she felt much sleepier than before and sometimes fell asleep on the sofa.
She sleeps longer than before, and her complexion seems to be getting better and better. Even Director Yang said that this baby will definitely be a lucky one.
The Spring Festival of 1974 soon arrived, and that year neither Xu Mian nor Xu Sui went back.
Xu Bing and Lu Chenghuai had no holidays during the Chinese New Year, and Xu Mian was pregnant and not suitable for traveling. After thinking about it, Xu Sui gave up the idea of going back.
Another point is that they had communicated with each other long ago, and when the baby was about to be born, Zhang Yunxiu would come to take care of it.
Xu Mian did not plan to invite the Xu family members to come again this time. The Xu family, upon learning the news that their daughter-in-law was pregnant, did not bring it up on their own initiative, probably because they still wanted to manipulate her into giving in.
Xu Bing had lost interest in the Xu family. Some parents' love for their children was conditional, and he was destined not to be a filial child in the eyes of his parents.
But when Xu Mian's belly was one month old, Zhang Yunxiu came with a lot of babies.
Clothes are thin in summer, so she only brought two sets of clothes for changing, and the rest were prepared for her two daughters.
It was not only Zhang Yunxiu's first time to come to the island, but also her first time to go to the county town and her first time to ride a train and a ship.
Not only was she not tired, she also looked very excited when Xu Mian and Xu Sui picked her up.
"That train was so long and it was running so fast. I had to keep an eye on it the whole time, afraid that I would miss my stop by accident."
"But I don't want to ride the ship again. I want to see what the sea is like. I didn't expect that I would feel dizzy and vomit several times when I got close to it."
"After learning about your pregnancy, your father and grandfather started preparing. Your grandfather also made some bamboo toys for Tuantuan and Yuanyuan. I brought them here to prevent them from getting damaged during the mailing process. Your eldest brother went hunting in the mountains with the team during the Chinese New Year and smoked two rabbits. You two sisters each get one."
When they got home, Zhang Yunxiu lived in the room where Xu Sui had lived before. She brought her things one by one and sorted them out in no time.
The only thing that made Zhang Yunxiu dissatisfied was, "Your family compound is good in every way, and it's close to shopping, but the house is too small. There are only a few rooms, and when the children grow up, they won't be able to move around. I have to reorganize these things."
Xu Mian said with a smile: "Mom, then you should go see Sui Sui's yard. It's bigger than our yard, but the rooms are the same size, only with two more rooms than mine."
Zhang Yunxiu shook her head. "It's better to live in a bigger, more spacious and more comfortable place."
Xu Sui asked, "Mom, how is Grandpa's health?"
"He's full of energy now!" Zhang Yunxiu couldn't help but smile. "Look at our family over the past two years, it's getting better and better. Everyone has a job. Even your second brother is actively performing in the army to get a chance to study. It can be said that your grandfather's wish has been fulfilled. Your generation has all gone."
"Someone once said to us that there is an adult at home, and we should at least keep your sister-in-law nearby to take care of her, and we should not let our daughter-in-law work. What if she runs away or is taken away by her family? Our daughter-in-law is a person."
"Your father and I won't listen to such talk, but before we said anything, your grandfather beat the gossipers with his cane. Your grandfather is older now, so they don't dare to say anything anymore. I say, it's a good thing for the child to have his own future. You don't have to stay and farm. It's your father and I's job to take care of your grandfather. When we are old, you will definitely take care of us, but we are still young now!"
She and Xu Changgen are both over 50 years old and can still continue to work. When they can no longer work, it won’t be too late to find children.
Zhang Yunxiu came over and became acquainted with several military wives.
In the evening, we had dinner at Xu Sui's house.
Seven people sitting around a table eating together are the closest family members and it is a very happy thing.
Xu Sui brought a pot of hawthorn wine, which was not strong in alcohol and tasted sour and sweet.
Except for Tuantuanyuanyuan who can't drink 늌, everyone likes it very much.
After they had their meal and cleared the table, they sat down together to drink tea and chat for a while. Xu Sui saw them off to the courtyard gate, and when she came back, Lu Chenghuai pinched her face.
Lu Chenghuai had also been itching for a long time. After his wife drank the wine, the redness on her face had not gone away. Although she didn't say much afterwards, she was always smiling. When she looked at him, her eyes seemed to have hooks.
He hugged Xu Sui, who tried to push him but failed, and said lazily, "I haven't taken a shower yet."
Lu Chenghuai lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "The water is ready. Let's take a bath together tonight."
Before Xu Sui could respond, he picked her up.
After washing, Xu Sui was still held in his arms, but her whole body felt soft and her head seemed to be dizzy from the heat.
Lu Chenghuai didn't turn on the light, but in the dark, he was able to put her safely on the bed.
The ends of Xu Sui's hair were still a little wet, so he wiped it carefully with his fur, then leaned over and pecked her lightly at the corner of her mouth.
When it comes to sex, he has always been very patient.
The two of them didn't complete the final step when they were taking a shower. Now that they were back in the room, he could hold back and just planted kisses all over her body again to wake her up again.
Xu Sui only felt that he was making progress and she could no longer bear it.
Not only did this man learn how to please her body, but he also kept praising her in her ears as his hands moved lower and lower, and even asked her -
"Sui Sui, do you know what I am doing?"
"Sui Sui, do you like this feeling?"
"Sui Sui, I want you to keep looking at me, or at them."
"Sui Sui, I like your response like this."
His voice was not loud, but every word he said was close to her ear.
Xu Sui didn't want to answer, and he didn't care.
Captain Lu, who used to be a steady gentleman, has become more and more shameless.
However, I have to admit that such a "long" process of waiting to enter does bring her more pleasure.
It was the same this time, until Lu Chenghuai finally picked up the paper bag, and Xu Sui gently held his hand.
Lu Chenghuai looked at her doubtfully. He was ready to make a move, but he was still tense for her.
Xu Sui whispered, "We don't need it anymore."
————————————————————
It will be finished tomorrow. I have been doing some checks during this period and the updates are quite rushed. The day after tomorrow, I will be sent to the capital for surgery (minor surgery), so I decided to finish it first. There may be a follow-up.
