It was soon noon, and Ye Shuning was feeling hungry. She whispered to Li Shaozhong, "Honey, didn't I heat up some meat buns in the pot this morning? Let's have this for lunch. It won't smell too strong."
Ye Shuning took out the pot directly. Li Shaozhong took out his lunch box and put the still hot buns in the pot into the lunch box. "Quick, wife, put this away quickly. What if someone sees us?"
Ye Shuning stuck out her tongue, quickly put the pot away and whispered, "Pregnancy makes people stupid for three years. I am a little stupid too."
Li Shaozhong saw his wife's playful look and said with a smile, "Be more careful next time. What will you do without me by your side to supervise you? Eat your buns quickly. I'll make you a glass of milk."
Li Shaozhong stood up and poured a large cup of milk for his wife in a teacup.
Ye Shuning saw that she couldn't drink such a big cup at all, "Hubby, I can't finish this much, let's drink it together."
The two of them had meat buns, milk, and some fruit for lunch. Without anyone to bother them, they were very comfortable even on the train.
After dinner, Ye Shuning read a book for a while and then felt sleepy again. She leaned against the carriage and fell asleep unknowingly.
Li Shaozhong looked up from his book and saw that his wife had fallen asleep. This situation had happened frequently since his wife became pregnant, and Li Shaozhong was no longer surprised.
He shook his head and smiled as he gently took the book from his wife's hand. Then he helped his wife lie down, covered her with a quilt, and let Ye Shuning sleep more comfortably.
Inside the train compartment, there was the rhythmic clatter of the train and the even breathing of his wife. Li Shaozhong felt a sense of peace and tranquility. With Ye Shuning by his side, Li Shaozhong felt at ease.
When Ye Shuning woke up, the sun had already set outside.
Li Shaozhong looked up from his book and saw his wife with sleepy eyes. She looked at him cutely and smiled gently, "Wife, are you awake? You slept for a long time."
As he said that, he stood up, picked up the cup of water, tested the water temperature, helped Ye Shuning up, let her lean on him, and fed her some warm water.
Li Shaozhong asked, "Are you hungry? You didn't eat much at lunch. Can I get you some cake?"
Ye Shuning nodded, "I'm a little hungry, give me two pieces of cake."
Li Shaozhong helped Ye Shuning lean against the wall of the carriage, then made some milk for his wife and took some pastries for her to eat.
After eating, Ye Shuning felt bored and took out a book to read. Li Shaozhong saw that his wife was uncomfortable leaning against the carriage, so he let her lean on him. This made Ye Shuning feel much more comfortable.
No one came to their carriage at night, and the two of them had dinner brought from the institute, which was quite pleasant.
The next morning, after the train stopped at one station, a man boarded their compartment. He was a handsome young man in his twenties. When he saw Ye Shuning, leaning against the carriage under a blanket, his eyes flashed with surprise. But when he saw her bulging belly, a hint of regret flashed across his eyes.
Li Shaozhong had already noticed the expression of the person who came, and his first impression of this new guy was not good.
The young man put his luggage under the lower bunk and then sat on Li Shaozhong's lower bunk.
Li Shaozhong stood up and sat on his wife's lower bunk, indirectly showing his sovereignty and warning the new guy not to have any tricks.
The young man saw Li Shaozhong's behavior and knew that the young man and woman in the box were a couple. Then the young man was fed a mouthful of dog food by Li Shaozhong.
Because Li Shaozhong was very concerned about Ye Shuning, asking her if she was thirsty, if she was hungry, peeling apples for her, and handing her food. In short, he perfectly portrayed the image of a good man who loves his wife.
Ye Shuning was a little overwhelmed by her husband's enthusiasm. She pulled her husband and said, "Husband, take a break. You've been busy all day. I'll tell you if I need anything."
Li Shaozhong nodded and said, "Okay, since you're pregnant and it's inconvenient, just tell me if you need anything."
When some strangers arrived, Li Shaozhong went to the dining car to buy lunch. The food on trains these days is average, especially in winter, so he bought a plate of minced meat and tofu, a plate of pickled cabbage, and a few steamed buns. It was a good side dish for their meat sauce.
Ye Shuning has always eaten small meals frequently, so she only had half a steamed bun and some vegetables for lunch, and the rest was eaten by Li Shaozhong.
During the meal, Li Shaozhong also made a cup of milk for Ye Shuning to ensure his wife's nutrition.
The two of them ate and drank their way to Kyoto without any problems. The young man had also come to Kyoto. He had been abused enough by Li Shaozhong and Ye Shuning. He felt that he needed to learn more about how to please women, otherwise he might not be able to find a wife.
Most of the food that Ye Shuning had taken out earlier was eaten up by the two of them on the way, so when they got off the train, Li Shaozhong carried a large suitcase and an almost empty large backpack and helped Ye Shuning get off the train.
As soon as Li Shaozhong came out of the train station exit, he heard someone calling him. He looked up and saw that it was his elder brother who came to pick them up.
Li Shaoting quickly walked over and took the luggage from his brother's hand. He looked at the pregnant Ye Shuning and asked, "Did the journey go smoothly? Is Xiao Ning okay?"
Li Shaozhong replied, "The journey was smooth."
Ye Shuning said: "Brother, I'm fine. Brother Zhong took good care of me along the way."
Li Shaoting said, "Let's go home quickly. It's too cold outside. Don't let Xiao Ning get cold."
Li Shaozhong supported his wife as they slowly walked out. Li Shaoting had already driven the car to the exit. He helped Ye Shuning into the car, and after everyone was seated, Li Shaoting slowly started the car. He drove slowly on the way back.
When they got home, Yang Jinping came out to greet them as soon as the car arrived at the door. Seeing her youngest son helping his daughter-in-law get out of the car, she quickly stepped forward to support her. "Xiao Ning, you've had a hard time on this journey. Come inside and rest."
Having said that, Yang Jinping didn't even glance at her youngest son. She smiled happily and helped Ye Shuning into the house, asking about her well-being, leaving Li Shaozhong aside.
Li Shaozhong was stunned for a moment and stared blankly at his eldest brother who had gotten off the car. "My mother only has eyes for her little daughter-in-law now. It's as if I, her son who came back with her, didn't see her at all. She's so sad."
Li Shaoting looked at his brother who was showing off and said with a smile, "Alright, Mom is just worried that Xiao Ning will feel uncomfortable with this big belly. Come inside quickly."
The two of them went into the house with their luggage.
In the living room, Yang Jinping helped Ye Shuning sit on the sofa. "Xiao Ning, sit on the sofa and rest for a while. Xiao Wang, quickly make Xiao Ning a glass of milk to warm her up."
Nanny Xiao Wang quickly made a cup of hot milk.
