Only then did everyone remember that Ye Lanqing didn't know that Ji Qingzhou was pregnant.
"Mom, I'm pregnant. You're going to have a grandson soon."
Ji Qingzhou lowered his head, his face flushed.
Ye Lanqing was happy to hear that, but then she thought about her pregnant wife and running to the battlefield, and she became scared.
After calming down, she frowned and hit Xie Yanbei twice with her backhand.
"You little brat, you don't even know about something as serious as this? How can you be someone's husband?"
Seeing what happened to his good brother, Shen Huaizhi laughed unkindly.
Seeing his gloating look, Xie Yanbei gave him a look that told him to go back and settle the score.
"Okay, let's eat!"
Ji Qingzhou smoothed things over and the family finally sat down.
Looking at the table full of food, which was so delicious, Shen Huaizhi looked at Xie Yanbei with envy in his eyes.
"You are so lucky, boy. You married such a beautiful wife. Not only are you going to be a father soon, but both of your aunts are so gentle. I really don't know what good deeds you did in your previous life."
Shen Huaizhi's joking words caused everyone to laugh.
Xie Yanbei and Ji Qingzhou looked at each other at the same time.
At this moment, it seems that there is no room for anyone else in his eyes.
"Everyone, come and try my stewed pig's trotters. Old Ji got up early and ran to the market to buy them. They are so fresh. I stewed them in the pot right after I brought them home. They should be mushy now."
"You didn't eat well, didn't get enough rest, and were constantly worried on the battlefield. You must take good care of your bodies when you come back this time."
"Especially Xiao Shen, you should eat more and treat it like you are at home."
As she spoke, Cao Yunzhi picked up the serving chopsticks, picked up the largest piece and put it into Shen Huaizhi's bowl.
Shen Huaizhi was flattered and could not refuse.
He immediately stood up and held the bowl in both hands to take the big pig's trotter handed to him by Cao Yunzhi.
"Thank you, Auntie."
The harmonious and warm atmosphere made Shen Huaizhi's eyes red.
Ever since his parents left, he and his sister have been left alone to depend on each other.
He could hardly remember what it was like to have a meal together as a family.
"To be honest, uncle and aunt, I haven't had a meal with my family for a long time. Thank you."
He tried very hard to appear relaxed when he spoke, but the more he did so, the more heartbreaking it became.
Ji Jingshan looked at Shen Huaizhi's face and suddenly thought of a letter he received today.
He opened his mouth to say something, but swallowed it back.
Let’s wait until after dinner!
"Eat more."
Xie Yanbei stared at Ji Qingzhou and always felt that she seemed a lot thinner than before.
Thinking of this, he worked even harder to pick up food for her, and he almost wanted to pile all the delicious food into her bowl.
"Yes, you look so thin. Now that you're pregnant, you have to take good care of yourself so that my precious grandchildren can be plump, white, and healthy when they are born."
Cao Yunzhi also echoed.
"The child is secondary. The most important thing is Qingzhou's health. Giving birth consumes a lot of energy."
Ye Lanqing couldn't help but speak.
The two people reached out to the serving chopsticks in the middle at the same time, and their hands touched each other at the same time, and they couldn't help laughing.
"That's enough, that's enough. I already have a big bowl full. If you keep feeding me like this, I'll be as fat as a pig in less than a month."
Ji Qingzhou felt helpless.
"What are you afraid of? Even if you become as fat as a pig, there will still be people who like you."
Ji Qingwan smiled and joked, then looked at Xie Yanbei meaningfully.
"I'm not fat. In my heart, Qingzhou looks good no matter what."
Xie Yanbei did not refute, but instead held Ji Qingzhou's hand.
His deep eyes stared at her intently, full of affection.
"hiss……"
Ji Qingwan felt her teeth were sour.
I really didn't expect that Xie Yanbei, who looked cold and aloof, could say such sweet words that made my teeth ache.
She raised her head and saw Shen Huaizhi, who was sitting opposite her, also trembled and got goose bumps. She instantly felt that she had found a comrade.
The meal ended with laughter and Xie Yanbei took the initiative to take on the task of washing the dishes.
"Let me help you."
Ji Qingzhou was about to roll up his sleeves when Xie Yanbei stopped him immediately.
He placed his hands on her shoulders and pushed her further away from the sink.
"I'll do it. The water's cold, and it'll freeze you."
"fine……"
Ji Qingzhou wanted to say something, but he was gently held in his arms.
Xie Yanbei lowered his head and his eyes fell on her face.
He watched her long, thick eyelashes tremble, and couldn't help but place a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Wife, please stay here."
His voice was low and gentle, and it seemed to have a bewitching charm in Ji Qingzhou's ears.
Ji Qingzhou couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips, raised his hand to gently roll up his sleeves, and helped him tie his apron.
He was too tall, and Cao Yunzhi's apron was too small, barely covering his thighs.
Looking from behind, the man has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, giving off an indescribable charm.
Outside the door, Ji Qingwan was about to enter the kitchen when she was stopped by Cao Yunzhi.
"They're just a young couple together, what are you doing in there?"
After hearing what Cao Yunzhi said, Ji Qingwan finally reacted. She understood and took her hand and left the kitchen door.
In the kitchen, Xie Yanbei was nimble and skillful.
Looking at the sunset shining on him, he seemed to be covered with a sacred halo.
Ji Qingzhou's mind moved slightly, and he slowly hugged his waist from behind.
"Ayan."
She spoke softly, her voice trembling uncontrollably.
In their new life, they not only got married, but also had their own children, and their family was harmonious and happy.
Every time she thought about it, she felt a little dazed and unreal.
"What's wrong?"
Xie Yanbei noticed it and subconsciously turned his head to look at Ji Qingzhou.
Seeing her eyes smiling and her eyes fixed on him, the man's throat tightened.
"It's okay, I just want to hold you."
Ji Qingzhou pressed his face against Xie Yanbei's back, and the faint fragrance unique to him wafted into his nose.
She subconsciously rubbed against him like a kitten.
The slight movement almost caused Xie Yanbei's self-control, which he was proud of, to collapse.
He squinted his eyes, his throat rolled up and down uncontrollably, and his eyes were hot.
"Um?"
A lazy sound came from the tip of his nose.
Xie Yanbei wiped her hands on her apron twice, then she pried her hands apart and held her in her arms.
She wanted to touch her cheek with her hand, but was afraid that her hand was too cold and would freeze her.
He could only lower his head and place gentle kisses on her cheek, nose tip, and chin.
"not enough!"
Ji Qingzhou's eyes smiled into crescent shapes and he shook his head at him.
The next second, she reached out for Xie Yanbei's neck and stood on tiptoe to kiss the corner of his mouth.
Xie Yanbei was afraid that she would be tired, so he lowered his head and opened his thin lips to cooperate with her bold and awkward entry.
