The two people in the kitchen heard the noise and hurried out. When they saw the scene in front of them, they were both amused and confused. What was going on?
Before he could finish his words, Xia Wanwan and the others walked in with their things, and the scene suddenly became extremely awkward.
Xia Chengzhi almost wanted to die, but his thigh was cramping, so even if he wanted to, he couldn't do it.
Finally, Xia Yuwei came over quickly, helped Xia Chengzhi up, and said with a look of reproach: "Dad, you really can't do push-ups with your body. Don't try to show off in the future. You've made a fool of yourself, haven't you, brother-in-law?"
Chen Ling understood it instantly, and walked over with a smile, trying to ease the atmosphere.
Only then did Xia Wanwan hear the whole story from her sister and mother. It was probably because of their arrival that her father became anxious, but he accidentally fell!
Xia Wanwan looked at her father who was massaging the pineapple cap, and obediently sat over to help massage him a few times, "Dad, it seems that your body is a little weak!"
"Hmph!" Xia Chengzhi was almost ashamed. If his eldest daughter hadn't helped him out, he would have died today.
Lu Tingxiao clearly felt that his mother-in-law and eldest sister seemed to be lying, but as a son-in-law, he did not dare to step forward and expose them.
Nowadays, whatever others say is what it is. How can a junior like him expose the shortcomings of his elders?
Fortunately, the family hadn't seen each other for a long time, and now they were able to gather together. Xia Chengzhi's expression gradually relaxed from the initial stiffness.
Originally, he wanted to dress seriously and act like a father-in-law, but now it seems that he can't do it anymore.
Looking at the son-in-law sitting next to him, he seems to be more majestic than himself!
It’s really frustrating to compare yourself with others!
However, Chen Ling and Xia Yuwei soon brought out a lot of delicious food, and everyone gathered together talking and laughing. The whole family took good care of Xia Wanwan's food. After all, she was a national treasure.
Xia Chengzhi also clearly felt that his daughter had changed a lot after coming back this time. At least she was not as naughty as before. Relatively speaking, she seemed much gentler. Perhaps it was really the influence of pregnancy.
Thinking of this, Xia Chengzhi couldn't help but ask, "I saw in the newspaper that you are now quite skilled in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Fortunately, you haven't brought disgrace upon our Xia family."
"Dad wants to know what your plans are for next year. Will you still leave after the New Year and the birth of your baby?"
Xia Wanwan glanced at the man beside her. In fact, the moment they came back, they had already thought that they might not leave again.
After all, after giving birth to the child, how could she bear to let such a young child leave her side?
But if she took him there, he would definitely not be as well taken care of as he was in Kyoto, so she decided not to leave for the time being.
"If nothing goes wrong, I won't be leaving next year."
Xia Chengzhi glanced at his son-in-law with interest, and Lu Tingxiao immediately expressed his opinion, "Dad, I'll be discharged from the army next year, so Wanwan can just stay in Kyoto and wait for me to come back."
"Really? Are you willing to sacrifice the glory of the army?"
"What's there to be reluctant about? Nothing is more important than being happy with my family." Lu Tingxiao smiled calmly and met his father-in-law's inquiring eyes. If you walk the right path, you don't have to worry about your shadow being crooked.
Chen Ling lowered her head and ate silently, the smile on the corner of her lips could no longer be concealed.
Fortunately, at least the youngest daughter is happy!
Such a good man is willing to give up his career for her and the child. He is really a man.
"That's fine. Your job is indeed somewhat dangerous. Try to assign yourself an easier job after you retire. It would be a blessing to be able to spend time with your wife and children. Dad has high hopes for you!"
"Thanks, Dad. Let's have a drink!" Lu Tingxiao raised his glass to gesture to his father-in-law. Xia Chengzhi looked at his son-in-law and became more and more satisfied.
Although their marriage was a coincidence, it seems that they are becoming more and more compatible now.
As parents, who doesn’t want their children to live a good life? It seems that the initial worries no longer exist.
"Since you're not leaving next year, when the child is a little older, you can officially inherit and reopen the medicine shop left by your grandfather."
