In early March, winter still shows no sign of ending in Huaicheng.
A month has passed since the Spring Festival. The weather in the first month of the year has been fluctuating. Occasionally it will be warm for a few days, but occasionally it will cool down.
However, no matter what the temperature outside is, the indoor temperature is maintained very well, especially at the airport pick-up point.
Qi Yuan stood at the arrival gate of Huaicheng Airport. The walls and ceiling of the airport were made of glass. The morning sunlight was not scorching but warmly poured in through the glass. Qi Yuan stood in the sunlight, watching the people coming out of the arrival gate.
After a while, Qi Yuan's calm eyes lit up, and he raised his hand and called out to a tall and slender figure not far away.
"Ah Xiao!"
The other party heard his shout and looked over. Also looking over was Tang Miao, who was standing behind the luggage cart beside him.
Seeing Tang Miao, Qi Yuan smiled and waved at her. When the woman saw him, the light in her eyes softened and she smiled at him gently.
Just this one smile made Qi Yuan feel even gentler than today's sunshine.
Since He Xiao and Tang Miao returned to Huaicheng last year, they have been busy with their own careers. He Xiao was busy performing with the band, while Tang Miao contacted training institutions and charity organizations according to her ideas. While she was contacting, the charity department of He Xiao's grandparents' group stepped in and slowly took over the work. In the following July and August, Tang Miao's life was to take classes at the piano store and accompany He Xiao to perform outside.
By October, the band's performance came to an end, and He Xiao and Tang Miao returned to Huaicheng to finish the arrangement work for the documentary that He Xiao had taken on last year.
In November, He Xiao and Tang Miao left Huaicheng and went to the southwestern mountainous area.
Tang Miao has made a charity plan, which is to let urban training institutions, whether music, calligraphy or art, cooperate with some schools in mountainous areas that cannot carry out these courses. He hopes that children in mountainous areas can also develop their own interests and hobbies, and even find some children with talents in these areas and give them help.
And that’s not all. When they had nothing to do in November, they returned to the school in the mountains and took part in the plan themselves.
Just like last year, Tang Miao teaches music and He Xiao teaches mathematics.
When the two of them went there, Qi Yuan and Ji Bang did not follow them. But later in December, a group of people went there for a while and celebrated a minority festival. Then around January, the two of them came back, leaving Tang Miao and He Xiao to continue staying there.
Now in early March, He Xiao said that he and Tang Miao were ready to come back. After receiving the news, Qi Yuan came to pick them up.
While Tang Miao was laughing, the two had already walked to Qi Yuan. Qi Yuan first went up to hug He Xiao, patted his shoulder, and then looked at Tang Miao.
After not seeing each other for more than two months, even though it was a winter, Tang Miao seemed to be softer and warmer than before. The woman's eyebrows and eyes were as graceful and peaceful as the water in the south of the Yangtze River. Even with a smile, she could give people a sense of tranquility.
"Tang Miao looks a little different." Qi Yuan looked at Tang Miao for a while and finally came to this ambiguous evaluation.
After Qi Yuan finished speaking, the smile in the woman's eyes deepened, like a shallow whirlpool in a clear stream.
She looked at Qi Yuan and spoke to him.
"What's different?"
"I can't say." Qi Yuan said.
Qi Yuan looked at Tang Miao again, unable to explain what was going on. Tang Miao let him look at her, turned his head to glance at He Xiao beside him, then looked at Qi Yuan and said with a smile.
"I am pregnant."
Qi Yuan: “!!!”
-
Tang Miao and He Xiao had been planning to have a child as early as July last year.
However, because there was a lot of work in July and Tang Miao might have a hard time, the two did not implement the plan until November.
But a plan doesn’t always work after it’s implemented. At the same time, they went to the mountains together in November, and then things just went their way.
In December, when Qi Yuan and Ji Bang went there, Tang Miao was already pregnant. But she was a first-time mother, so she didn't know it at the time, and the conditions in the mountains were not so good. It was not until the Spring Festival in January that they knew they were parents.
When they found out that Tang Miao was pregnant, she and He Xiao's feelings seemed to be still vivid in their minds. They even said that they would probably remember them in detail for the rest of their lives.
Originally, after learning about the pregnancy, the two were going to return home early. However, Tang Miao and He Xiao went to a hospital in a nearby city for a detailed examination and created a file. After being told that everything was normal and developing well, they decided to stay there for a while.
It was not until now, when the baby was five months old, that the two of them returned from the southwest.
In fact, at five months, her belly had already shown some signs of pregnancy. However, Tang Miaodong was wearing a lot of underwear, and on the outside she was wearing He Xiao's coat, so only her face was exposed, so Qi Yuan didn't notice it when he saw her at the airport.
After Qi Yuan took the two people home, Tang Miao took off her coat, and Qi Yuan could then see Tang Miao's belly clearly.
It's already slightly raised.
Qi Yuan looked at it in wonder.
He Xiao took Tang Miao's coat and hung it aside. He turned around and found Qi Yuan staring at Tang Miao's belly. He glanced at Qi Yuan and said, "What can you see now?"
After He Xiao finished speaking, Tang Miao smiled along.
Tang Miao smiled and his stomach moved. Qi Yuan was a little scared and was about to do something, but then he came to his senses and felt that he was overreacting, so he raised his head and said.
“No, I just think it’s magical.”
Qi Yuan found what was magical not only that Tang Miao was pregnant, but also that He Xiao and Tang Miao had their child.
Sometimes a child is not just a child. It is rich in so many meanings. It is a member of a family, a bond of relationship, a crystallization of affection, and also the love of parents and continuation.
This is a very magical thing.
He Xiao is going to be a father, Tang Miao is going to be a mother, and they are going to have a child.
Qi Yuan felt amazed, shocked, shocked, happy, excited, and had a kind of anticipation that he didn't know how to describe.
"You wait. When Ji Bang and the others come over soon, he will definitely react even more violently than I do." After Qi Yuan said this, he added this as if to save his own face.
Ji Bang and Lin Ye had something to do today, so Qi Yuan had to pick them up by himself. But the five of them were going to have dinner together tonight. They didn't plan to go out for dinner, because it was too cold now, unlike in summer. In the end, Qi Yuan decided to have the chef at home cook a table of food and send it directly to Tang Miao's house, so that the five of them could have a hot meal at home.
They were home, and Ji Bang, Lin Ye and others were almost there too.
After Qi Yuan said this with great confidence, Tang Miao turned around and looked at He Xiao. Their eyes met and they smiled at each other.
-
Ji Bang's reaction was indeed much greater than Qi Yuan's.
After he arrived at Tang Miao and He Xiao's house, he hugged He Xiao and Tang Miao first. Qi Yuan reminded him to pay attention to Tang Miao's belly. Only then did Ji Bang come to his senses and jumped back.
Then, with shock and helplessness in his eyes, he looked carefully at Tang Miao's belly.
He was speechless for a moment. Lin Ye, who was standing next to him, noticed Tang Miao's belly after he left her. He showed a hint of surprise in his eyes and said.
"Pregnant?"
After Lin Ye finished speaking, Tang Miao looked at Lin Ye and smiled.
"Um."
Lin Ye burst into laughter.
Ji Bang, who was standing by, heard the conversation between the two and confirmed the news of Tang Miao's pregnancy. He was a little bit incredulous and a little excited, and his eyes were even brighter than before.
He looked at He Xiao, then at Tang Miao, then at Qi Yuan and Lin Ye, somewhat unsure.
Qi Yuan: "It's not your child, why are you so excited?"
Jibang: “…”
Ji Bang's eyes were red, and he immediately held back his tears after hearing Qi Yuan's insult. He was so angry at Qi Yuan's words that he wanted to be angry and laugh at the same time. Finally, he looked at Qi Yuan with a grin and said.
"You know shit!"
