Chapter 218: Lost Contact

The only possibility is that something happened to him.

Cheng Wei knew that she couldn't sleep when she woke up, and he didn't urge her to sleep. Gently pinched her hand that had become fleshy after gaining weight, and said, "If there is anything to do, you have to trust your little uncle." ”

The only person who thinks Li Peiyuan will have something to do may be Zhou He. He was already in a high position at a young age, and his strategy and ability were not comparable to ordinary people. The position he is in now may not be able to reach it for a lifetime. He is honest and meticulous in his work, and as long as he is careful, as long as there is no more earth-shaking change in the political world, nothing will happen to him.

Zhou He didn't know what he was thinking, and he was a little distracted. After a while, he looked at Cheng Wei and asked, "Don't you think that between my little uncle and my eldest uncle...... Doesn't that seem weird?"

But no, Li Peiyuan and all the Li family members seem to be estranged. Not close.

When the old lady was alive, everyone would spend the Chinese New Year in the old mansion every year. But since the old lady passed away, they haven't been together for the New Year except for the first year. They are all in the same city, and they are not far away, which is somewhat unreasonable for a normal family.

and he was injured, and the number of times the Li family appeared in the ward was only a handful. It's not as concerned and anxious as ordinary people.

The more Zhou He thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.

Cheng Wei sighed and asked, "What do you think is wrong?"

Zhou He said what he had just thought of.

Cheng Wei played with her hand for a while, didn't care much, and said: "Every family has a different way of getting along, as far as I know, in many big families, especially those with many brothers and sisters, it is rare to see any brothers and sisters. Everybody only maintains superficial interactions. ”

Especially in the big family, the filth is the most. Some families don't even have any family affection at all.

Probably accustomed to the indifference of human feelings, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Although Zhou He still felt puzzled, when he heard Cheng Wei say that, he remembered that he was more sensitive during pregnancy, so he nodded and stopped talking.

Cheng Wei stretched out his hand and stroked the hair covering her eyes in front of her forehead, and said softly: "Don't think nonsense, I'll let people take a look tomorrow." If there's no news, I'll go for a run. Rest assured, he'll be fine. ”

Zhou He snorted.

Cheng Wei patted her again and said, "Then go to sleep, it's not early." ”

No, it's past one o'clock in the morning.

Zhou He nodded, found a comfortable position in his arms, closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.

She fell asleep quickly, but Cheng Wei couldn't sleep. After waiting for her to fall asleep, she originally wanted to get up and call Li Jing, but thinking that he had drunk a lot of wine tonight, he was probably asleep at this time. So he didn't get up again, closed his eyes and lay on the bed.

Although a person's intuition cannot be said to be completely inaccurate, the doubts in some small details will not be for no reason. He didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the Li family, so he didn't know. But now that Zhou He has suspicions, he plans to let Li Jing investigate.

Cheng Wei has always been thoughtful, and there are a lot of things in his head. The wine was already awake when he was talking to Zhou He, and he lay on the bed with Zhou He in his arms, and he didn't fall asleep until more than three o'clock in the morning.

He still had to go to the office today, and he got up early. Although he was as light and light as he could when he got up, he still woke Zhou He up.

She opened her sleepy eyes and asked, "Are you leaving?"

Cheng Wei snorted, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said, "It's still early, let's sleep for a while." It's a holiday after being busy today. ”

Zhou He was still confused in the end, muttering something, Cheng Wei didn't hear clearly, and when she was about to ask, she closed her eyes again and fell asleep.

Cheng Wei smiled, gently pulled the quilt for her, and walked out of the room lightly.

On this day, Zhou He still called Li Peiyuan, but his phone was still unreachable. Cheng Wei came back earlier than usual in the evening. I brought small buns and some handmade biscuits that Zhou He liked to eat during this time.

The buns were packed in a thermos box and were steaming hot. Although he was about to eat, Zhou He couldn't help but eat two.

Cheng Wei poured water for her and told her to eat slowly.

Zhou He ate the buns, and when she sat down at the dinner table, Cheng Wei peeled the shrimp for her and asked, "I asked people to go to my uncle's side to ask today, and he has been on vacation." ”

Zhou He was puzzled, stopped his movements, and asked, "Isn't he in Yucheng?"

Cheng Wei's action of peeling shrimp was still fast, and he sighed and said, "It's still there for the time being." But he plans to take this opportunity to go out for a walk during the Chinese New Year. ”

Zhou He couldn't help but be stunned. Although she didn't know why Li Peiyuan planned to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to go out for a walk, he was usually busy with work and the pressure he faced was not small, so it was normal for him to want to go out for a walk.

She nodded and asked, "Why can't the little uncle's phone get through?"

Since yesterday, she has not called Li Peiyuan.

Cheng Wei sighed and said, "I don't know, I should be too tired to take a good rest, so I turned off my phone." ”

The reason for this makes sense.

Zhou He nodded, Cheng Wei didn't wait for her to speak, thought about it for a while, and said: "If you don't feel uncomfortable after the New Year, if he is still in Yucheng at that time, we can go over there to see him." ”

Zhou He was a little relieved now, nodded and said yes.

This is the first New Year after they got married, and the New Year's goods are very well prepared. Auntie prepared a lot, and Li Ying also sent a lot of them.

The two of them were very lonely for the New Year, although Zhou He couldn't help much, but he discussed with Cheng Wei in advance, and asked them to come over for the New Year together.

In the past, Cheng Wei's years were spent with them. Cheng Wei naturally didn't have any meaning, and responded gently.

This New Year is very grand, and the aunt began to be busy in the kitchen on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, preparing the big dishes that Ming'er will eat.

They also came a day in advance to help clean the yard and post couplets. There was a spare room on this side of the house, and they stayed for the night. A group of people were very lively, and despite the cold and snow, they still made a barbecue in the pavilion outside. Drinking and drinking, playing cards, this courtyard has a rare lively atmosphere.

Everyone was playing, worried that Zhou He would be bored, and Cheng Wei also took him to play cards with everyone. Zhou He usually rarely plays these, but it's not that he doesn't understand, under the guidance of Cheng Wei, the card skills have improved rapidly.

But a group of people are often playing cards, and she can't take advantage of being a novice. In general, it is still more than losing and winning less. Cheng Wei deliberately released the water, and he didn't remind him much when he occasionally made a mistake.

Zhou He sat for a long time and had back pain, so he gave it to Cheng Wei after playing for a while. I'm watching from the sidelines.

Cheng Wei was silent when she played, but when it was his turn to play, she was not merciful at all, and she had never been under the village since she was on the table, which made several people wail. Straight to the point, you can't get him involved.

It was late this night, and Zhou He was pregnant and couldn't go to bed late. Cheng Wei also stopped playing with them and accompanied her upstairs.

Since Aunt Qi's death, Zhou He has felt the lively atmosphere of the New Year for the first year. She couldn't sleep for a while, and talked to Cheng Wei on the bed. I reminisced about the time of the previous Chinese New Year.

In her memory, the only time when she could feel the atmosphere of the New Year was the years when she lived with Aunt Qi Jingran. Although life is poor, every Chinese New Year, Aunt Qi will prepare a lot of things that she can't usually eat. will also prepare new clothes for both her and Qi Jingran.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, some snacks will be prepared, and the three will watch the gala, and then sit together to eat snacks and celebrate the New Year.

Aunt Qi would also tell some old stories, and both she and Qi Jingran would be fascinated by them.

It was an atmosphere she had never felt before. Therefore, it has become very cherished.

She talked about her previous New Year, and asked Cheng Wei how she spent the New Year before. Cheng Wei's life is much richer than her, he had many fox friends at that time, and he couldn't stay at home for a while on Chinese New Year's Eve, and would secretly go out of the window to go out with a group of fox friends to set off fireworks to press the road, or find an Internet café, and play until the early hours of the morning.

Those days were the most wanton days he lived. But he doesn't miss it. He had thought many times that if he had known, he would not have run out to play crazy in the days of this group member. He will accompany his parents well and do more things that his father likes. Instead of frowning at the sight of him.

Cheng Wei naturally wouldn't tell Zhou He about these things. He pointed out something interesting and told her. Zhou He listened carefully, and when he got to the back, he didn't even know when he fell asleep.

Her breathing was steady, Cheng Wei pulled the quilt and carefully put her outside on the hand cover, and then fell asleep.

Li Peiyuan, who had no news for the past two days, called Zhou He on the Chinese New Year's Eve, and he had learned that Zhou He had called him and told her that he was already out of town and was spending the New Year at a colleague's house. The New Year here is very lively, and the firecrackers are set off early. Every family slaughters chickens and sheep. Let Zhou He have a good New Year, don't worry about him. When he returns, he'll come and see her.

It was indeed lively on his side, with the sound of firecrackers and the noise of children. Knowing that he was not alone, Zhou He was much more relieved and wished him a happy New Year in advance.

When asked about the fact that his mobile phone could not get through, Li Peiyuan said that it was a mountainous area where he was, and the signal was not very good, so sometimes he could not make a call.

The signal on his side was really not good, and he didn't speak much and began to become intermittent and couldn't hear clearly, so Zhou He had to hang up the phone.

I was going to ask him when he would return to Yucheng or Kyoto, but in the end he didn't have time to ask.

This year was very lively, and on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, He An'an and He Xing both came. said that his parents went to the world of two, so they let them come to Zhouhe's side.

Probably because she was afraid that Zhou He would be lonely on their side, Li Ying let them come over.

The two of them came over, and Cheng Wei, the brother-in-law's New Year's money, was naturally inevitable. Fortunately, he was prepared and wrapped a thick red envelope.

He Xing grinned with grin, saying that he wanted to save the money to buy a model car. He had already bought a lot, and Li Ying didn't let him buy it anymore.

Cheng Wei asked him to keep the money for private money, and asked him what model he had a crush, and he came to buy it for him.

He Xing was very measured and did not let it. It makes more sense to say that you saved money to buy it.

Cheng Wei has always been afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and when he saw He Xing and Li Jing and them mingling together, he turned a blind eye and let him drink.

He Xing's amount of alcohol is not good, and he didn't drink much, and his childish face was red. Zhou He hurriedly asked his aunt to prepare a decanting soup for him.

Cheng Wei didn't care, saying that it was a boy, and it should be stocked. He Xing is already half an adult, and it is normal to drink some wine.

Zhou He glared at him, he laughed, and helped He Xing back to the guest room first.

Because he had to keep the New Year at night, Zhou He slept during the day. At night, I waited for the dawn of the morning with my eyelids on my eyelids.

She wanted to keep the New Year, and they were playing cards downstairs and arguing, so Cheng Wei took her upstairs. I found a gala and the two watched it together. Hands on her stomach, stroking from time to time.

The little one in his belly seemed to feel his touch, and it would bulge from time to time. Cheng Wei was very curious, and put his face on Zhou He's stomach, feeling the movement of the little guy inside.

Although Zhou He slept during the day, he narrowly survived until twelve o'clock. When I heard them set off fireworks outside, I closed my eyes.

The next day, they had to go to the He family villa to pay New Year's greetings, and after getting up early to eat the rice balls, they took He Xing and He An'an to the He family villa.

The He family is a big family, and Li Ying has a lot of things to do today. I can't squeeze out extra time to come out and greet them. Let them stay here for the night.

Since moving from the villa next door, Zhou He has not been here again. And so it stayed. There were many people in the He family's villa, so she, He Xing and He An'an went to the villa next door, and the three of them played a game together.

A few people didn't play for long, and Cheng Wei also pushed off the entertainment and came over secretly. He is a child king, He Xingwei is the first to look forward, and he plays games with him in the dark. It wasn't until the evening that he took Zhou He out for a walk.

The two stayed here at night and didn't go anywhere on the first day of the new year. In the evening, it was discussed that Ming'er would take He Xing and He An'an to nearby tourist attractions to have fun.

Because he was going out to play, Zhou He got up earlier than usual. The breakfast here at the He family has always been rich, with millet porridge, steamed buns, pancakes, soy milk fritters, as well as sandwiches and milk.

Zhou He ate pancakes and fritters and drank a cup of soy milk. When he was about to leave, the cousin of Zhou Heli's family came over to pay a New Year's greeting to Li Ying. There was a delay.

They weren't surprised to see Zhou He and Cheng Wei here, they didn't have anything to do with each other in the first place, and they just greeted politely now.

They only came here to greet Li Ying and He Changhui, and they didn't stay long before leaving. As for Li Peiyuan, who did not come back for the New Year, no one mentioned it.

Zhou He and Cheng Wei were in Yucheng on the third day of the Lunar New Year, and because they had big stomachs, Cheng Wei asked her all the way if she was uncomfortable.

Cheng Wei had already arranged it, and someone drove over to pick them up after getting off the plane. Although the two of them hadn't stayed in Yucheng for a while, the yard was still clean. Knowing that they would come back, my aunt also prepared New Year's goods before the year. Back in the house, the house was not cold and hot, and the smell of food came from the kitchen.

Zhou He's legs have begun to swell during this time, and this time she came back to sit for a long time and couldn't move, her legs were swollen again, and she returned to the house to stay until the first thing, Cheng Wei was to massage her swollen legs.

She originally planned to go to see Cheng Wei's parents and Aunt Qi when she came back, but her leg was swollen and Cheng Wei didn't let her, so she had to postpone the trip to the next day.

Shu Hua knew that they were coming back, so he brought the little one over to see them in the afternoon. Seeing that Zhou He's stomach was already bulging, he told her carefully to be careful.

Zhou Yiyi responded. looked at the little guy who was playing games with Cheng Wei, and asked about her and Senior Brother Qiu.

Shu Hua's face remained unchanged at all, and he said lightly that he had no plans to marry again. Of course, remarriage is also considered marriage.

At the beginning, he gave wholeheartedly, but in the end, he was covered in bruises. She has long been disappointed in her marriage. Don't want to go through it again.

Zhou He sighed lowly, and did not persuade Shu to paint. She knows too well that feelings are like people drinking water, and they know their own warmth and coldness. Shu Hua is an adult, and she is very clear about her own decisions.

No one can bear the pain caused by the relationship. Then, again, no one is qualified to persuade her.

Early the next morning, Cheng Wei took Zhou Hexian to the cemetery of Aunt Qi and Qi Jingran. They brought flowers, fruits and snacks that they liked to eat when they were alive.

In front of Qi Jingran's tomb, Zhou He unconsciously remembered the child she had lost at the beginning. Probably because of the sensitivity of pregnancy, a little sadness swelled up in her heart. After staying in the cemetery for a long time, I went down the mountain.

Her legs would swell after a long ride in the car, and he was worried that she would work too hard, and Cheng Wei did not plan to take her to his parents' cemetery. Zhou He insisted on going over. Cheng Wei couldn't resist her, so he could only respond.

The two did not wait any longer for the next day, the day passed. I plan to spend one night in a hotel in the county town after I go, and then go to the cemetery tomorrow.

These things are all arranged by Cheng Wei, and he doesn't have to worry about anything. She didn't care, she went to bed when she got in the car.

They were lucky enough to come back from a trip to the cemetery the next day, just in time for the local dragon boat race. was not in a hurry to go back, so Cheng Wei took Zhou He to watch the dragon boat race.

In the New Year, dragon boat racing is not the most lively. The liveliest thing is the various snacks displayed by the vendors.

After Zhou He became pregnant, he was very hungry and wanted to eat everything he saw. Cheng Wei also let her, bought her a little bit of everything, and brought it back to the hotel for her to eat.

They returned to Yucheng on the third day, originally thinking that Li Peiyuan would come back after the Spring Festival. But he doesn't seem to have returned, and the phone calls to him still can't be reached.

Cheng Wei knew that she was worried and did not return to Kyoto immediately. Instead, he stayed in Yucheng, planning to stay a few more days and wait for Li Peiyuan to meet again before returning to Kyoto.

But Li Peiyuan didn't know where he went, and he didn't come back until he officially went to work. The phone can't get through either. Li Ying was not at ease about the two of them in Yucheng, and after calling a few times to urge them, Zhou He and Cheng Wei had to go back to Kyoto first.

When the time came for her prenatal checkup, she went to the prenatal checkup after returning to Kyoto.

When chatting with a mother who also had a prenatal checkup, Zhou He found out that others said that they had chosen a good name for their children early. And she and Cheng Wei didn't think about it at all.

The baby will come out in a few months, and the name is imminent. After she got home, she took out the dictionary in Cheng Wei's study and asked him to name the child.

Cheng Wei was very aggressive, and he didn't take this matter to heart at all. It's a no-brainer to come up with a few names. Later, Zhou He was angry, so he patted his chest and promised, saying that he would come up with the name tomorrow, and she would just pick it up when the time came.

Cheng Wei also talked and counted, and handed over the baby's name the next day. He wrote a large piece of paper proudly, because he didn't want the name to be repeated, so he took some more remote words. There were many strokes, and Zhou He shook his head when he saw it. Thinking about these names he took, when the time came to write the name in kindergarten, the child could write and cry.

Zhou He was not satisfied with what he wrote this time, but Cheng Wei was not discouraged. The next day, I handed in a large piece of paper, and now it looks decent.

Zhou He was quite satisfied at first, but after reading it, he realized that something was wrong. The names that Cheng Wei gave were all girls, and there was no boy.

She couldn't help but ask, "Why are they all girls' names?"

Cheng Wei was triumphant and said: "I have a hunch that we must have a daughter." Of course, I have to take the girl's name. ”

Zhou He couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "What if it's a boy at that time?"

Cheng Wei didn't care at all, and said: "The boy's name is better, just grab one casually." It doesn't matter if you don't get up well, boys have thick skin and are not afraid of other people's jokes. ”

Zhou He shut up directly, and stopped asking him to help pick it up, so he picked up the dictionary and looked it up slowly.

After the Spring Festival, it is the Lantern Festival.

Li Peiyuan's phone has not been able to get through, and during this Lantern Festival, Zhou He planned to go to the Li family's old house to see if he had called back.

Cheng Wei's company has started to work, and the employees at the bottom are very idle in the first few days, but he is a little busy, and he did not accompany Zhou He to the past and let the driver send her over.

The last time Zhou He came here, there was only Fan Bo guarding here, but this time he came over and there was a strange aunt and a person guarding the yard.

It stands to reason that the year has passed, and Fan Bo should come back, but he has not been seen. Zhou He then asked about the strange aunt.
