When Song Shishi heard this, she instantly came to her senses.
She put her hands on Meng Xunzhou's chest and pushed him away.
"What did you just say?"
Meng Xunzhou looked at Song Shishi's panicked expression, and ripples of fear appeared in his heart.
He gently held her hand and intertwined their fingers.
"I say, let's have a baby. You are so pretty, I'm sure the baby we have in the future will also be pretty."
Although Song Shishi also longed for what her and Meng Xunzhou's child would look like, but...
Her cheeks turned red instantly and she lowered her head to avoid Meng Xunzhou's burning gaze.
She was afraid to look into Meng Xunzhou's eyes, and there were some words she couldn't bear to say.
...
...
"How could you be like this? I'm not mentally prepared. And..."
Having said that, Song Shishi mustered up the courage to look up and look him in the eye.
"Besides, I have just been admitted to university. If I have a child now, my studies will definitely be affected."
She wants to try harder in the next two years, and only when everything is relatively stable will she consider having children.
Although there would be someone to take care of the child even if she gave birth, she didn't want the child to lack the mother's love and companionship when he was still young.
Meng Xunzhou stroked her hair gently and said patiently and softly:
"I understand, don't feel burdened.
I just saw how hard you were working, and I thought how nice it would be if I could have a little life that could witness our love and grow up with you.
But I'll listen to you.
When you think the time is right, we can ask for it again."
Song Shishi looked at the sincerity in Meng Xunzhou's eyes, and the panic in her heart gradually subsided, replaced by full of emotion.
She gently leaned on Meng Xunzhou's shoulder and whispered, "Hubby, you are so nice."
Meng Xunzhou raised the corners of his lips slightly and kissed her forehead.
As the days passed, the military family compound became lively again.
In response to Mrs. Cao's suggestion last time, Song Shishi and Meng Xunzhou are going to host a few banquets at the Military Family Courtyard today to celebrate Song Shishi's successful admission to Beijing University.
Sister-in-law Cao, Yan Cuifen, Tian Lijuan and several other sisters-in-law in the military family compound enthusiastically helped Song Shishi with all the work inside and outside the house.
Everyone had a smile on their face.
Even though they are all military dependents, their daily lives are rather difficult.
In order to prevent everyone from having unnecessary suspicion of Meng Xunzhou because they thought the banquet was too extravagant, Zheng Zeqian directly covered all the expenses of the banquet.
When everyone learned that Song Shishi's uncle was a businessman, they were filled with envy when they saw the plates of sumptuous dishes.
Those who were invited to the banquet congratulated him one after another.
Today, not only did Song Shishi call all the family members, she also called Su Yaqin's family of three.
Ever since my brother-in-law was discharged from the hospital and his family returned to Xiangyang County, except for the time when Su Yaqin and her family came once when she got married, they only kept in touch through letters and had fewer opportunities to meet.
However, this situation is inevitable. First, they are not in the same place, and second, brother-in-law Li Chengde's clothing factory is too busy now. The couple has to take care of the factory business and Li Haoyang. They are too busy and naturally have no time to come to Beijing to find Song Shishi.
But this does not affect their relationship with Song Shishi.
Even though they haven't seen each other for a long time, Li Haoyang still clings to Song Shishi when he sees her.
As soon as he arrived, he stayed beside Song Shishi and refused to leave.
"Shishi, are you nourished by love? Why do you look more beautiful than before?"
Su Yaqin held Song Shishi's hand, her eyes full of smiles.
Song Shishi glanced at Su Yaqin in a reproachful manner, blushing and whispering: "Sister Qin, there are other people here, what are you talking about?"
Su Yaqin covered her mouth and laughed, then turned to Li Chengde and said, "Look at her. She's already married, but she's still as shy as before."
"Okay, stop teasing Sister Shishi. She has to entertain other guests. Let's go sit over there first."
Li Chengde put his arm around Su Yaqin's shoulders and pulled her into his arms.
Su Yaqin nodded and reached out to grab Li Haoyang, but Li Haoyang took a step back and avoided Su Yaqin's hand.
"Mom, I want to stay with my beautiful aunt for a while. You and Dad go first."
Li Chengde patted Su Yaqin on the shoulder, and Su Yaqin pouted, "Okay, but you have to be good and don't cause trouble for your aunt."
"Yeah, okay." Li Haoyang's face was filled with a bright smile and his eyes narrowed into crescents.
Just as everyone was laughing and talking, Liu Cuiping walked slowly towards Song Shishi with a faint fake smile on her face.
"Oh, you're making such a fuss about getting into college."
As she spoke, she glanced at the plates of food on the food preparation area and immediately revealed a sarcastic expression.
"Is Captain Meng guilty of corruption? This banquet must have cost a lot of money. How can a mere battalion commander have so much money?"
Meng Xunzhou had just sent Grandpa Meng and the others into the house, but as soon as he came out he heard Liu Cuiping's words and his face instantly turned gloomy.
It would be fine if this woman came uninvited, but she even came here to deliberately provoke me. If she is not taught a lesson, she will not know her place.
Meng Xunzhou clenched his fists and was about to step forward when he heard Song Shishi say, "Sister Liu, if you're here to congratulate me, I welcome you even if you're uninvited. But if you're here to cause trouble, I won't let you go just because you're the wife of Deputy Battalion Commander Li!"
"If you rely on your own real ability, I will naturally congratulate you. The scary thing is that some people did not rely on their real ability to pass the exam, but took some shortcuts, right?"
Liu Cuiping obviously did not intend to give up.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone around her looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Meng Xiaoqi was young and full of energy. She could not think of anything else at this moment. She went up to Liu Cuiping and yelled:
"Don't talk nonsense here. You can't spit out ivory. My sister-in-law was admitted to Jingshi University based on her real talent and knowledge. Don't be too jealous and dare to say anything."
"You little girl, what do you know!"
Liu Cuiping rolled her eyes at Meng Xiaoqi.
Hearing the noise, Mrs. Cao ran over and pulled Liu Cuiping hard.
"Liu Cuiping, please stop gossiping here. Have you forgotten what happened last time so quickly? How dare you..."
Liu Cuiping pulled her arm back abruptly, not appreciating Mrs. Cao’s kindness at all.
She sneered, "How could I forget? It's because of her that my old Li doesn't even want to go home now. She has ruined me like this, how can she live a happy life!"
When Song Shishi saw Liu Cuiping's tantrum and unreasonable behavior, she suddenly became furious.
But she was still concerned about the fact that there were too many people watching her, so she suppressed her emotions and curled the corners of her mouth into a sneer.
"Liu Cuiping, please don't leak it and criticize others.
Your husband Mr. Li doesn't want to go home. That's a problem between you and your wife. What does it have to do with me?
If you can't resolve the family conflict, don't come here to make trouble and vent your anger by making random accusations."
Liu Cuiping's face turned pale and red because of her criticism.
She was so angry that she took a step forward and almost poked Song Shishi in the face with her finger.
