Time flies quickly, and in a flash, it is in the wax moon. Zhou He's belly gradually revealed, like a round ball. After the first trimester, she began to vomit no longer and her appetite was no longer as tricky, but she was very sleepy. You can sleep almost anywhere.

Because of her pregnancy, she and Cheng Wei have been living in the He family's villa since they got married. But the two are already a small family, and it is not appropriate to live here for a long time. This is the first year after their marriage, and they should spend it in the Xie family's old mansion. So when there were almost two months before the Chinese New Year, Zhou He proposed to move back to the Xie family's old house.

Li Ying agreed with this proposal, although she was worried about Zhouhe, but they were all in Kyoto, not far away, and she could visit her often.

In fact, after returning to the old mansion, without Li Ying staring, Zhou He's life was even more casual. In just one month, she gained five pounds. The flesh on her palm-sized face was whirring, and her skin did not deteriorate after pregnancy, but became tender and tender, so that when Cheng Wei held her, he always reached out to pinch her face.

That night, when Cheng Wei came back, Zhou He had already fallen asleep on the sofa. The heating was on in the room, and it was warm, and she was only covered with a thin blanket.

The aunt was still busy in the kitchen, and when she saw Cheng Wei coming back, she said, "You're back." My wife was already sleepy, and she refused to let her go upstairs to sleep, so she had to wait for you to come back. ”

In the past few days since Zhou He's pregnancy, Cheng Wei has hardly been on a business trip, even if he has to go on a business trip, he tries to go and return the same day. Of course, socializing can also be pushed, and often it is time to get off work on time. Zhou He often waited for him to come back and have dinner together.

I can't put off a party today, so I'm back a little late.

Auntie's voice was soft, and Cheng Wei nodded. He asked, "What did my wife eat tonight?"

"Luckily, I ate a bowl of rice, drank a bowl of chicken soup, and ate a chicken leg. Auntie replied with a smile.

Cheng Wei's eyes were gentle, and he looked at the person on the sofa. Then he turned back to his aunt and said, "I've had dinner, go and rest." ”

The aunt said yes and went back to the room lightly.

Cheng Wei went to wash his hands, and then walked to the sofa. I wanted to gently carry Zhou He back to the room, but as soon as I touched her, Zhou He woke up.

She was sleepy-eyed, looked at Cheng Wei's handsome face, and said in a daze, "Have you eaten dinner?"

Cheng Wei reached out and patted her head gently, and said, "I've eaten it." Are you sleepy? Sleep, I'll carry you upstairs. Don't catch a cold. ”

Zhou He had already woken up at this time, shook his head, and said, "I'm thirsty and want to drink water." ”

She was originally going to pour water and drink it herself, but Cheng Wei reached out and pressed her and said, "Sit, I'll pour it." ”

He quickly went and poured a glass of water at a moderate temperature. Zhou He drank a small half cup and put it down, and asked, "Are you busy today?"

At the end of the year, the company was very busy. At this juncture, there is also a lot of entertainment.

Cheng Wei sighed and said, "I'm not very busy." An old customer came over today and had a meal with him. ”

Zhou He nodded, didn't smell the smell of alcohol on his body, was a little puzzled, and asked, "Didn't you drink?"

Where can you push off the wine.

Cheng Wei chuckled and said, "Pushed." I told them that my daughter-in-law was very fierce and that if I had drunk, I would have to sleep on the couch tonight. ”

Since the last wedding, he vomited after smelling the smell of wine last week, he rarely drank even if he was socializing, and when he got home, the first thing he did was to wash up, and he didn't dare to approach her until he had no smell of alcohol.

What he said was just a joke, thinking that Zhou He was hungry quickly, he reached out and touched his bulging belly through the blanket, and asked, "Is the little guy good today? Are you hungry? Would you like to get you something to eat?"

The little guy is in good spirits, and when she has good energy, she starts to move in her stomach early when she is still sleeping. Sometimes it's still moving around in the middle of the night.

Zhou He's heart was soft, and he said, "It's very good." ”

Cheng Wei couldn't help drooling at the mention of eating, thought about it, and asked, "Can I eat fried noodles?"

Cheng Wei reached out and patted her head, and said with a smile: "You can eat it." But my skills may not be as good as Auntie's, will I be a little better?"

From the time Zhou He became pregnant, the kitchen was seen as a dangerous place by him. Easily won't let her in.

Probably because of pregnancy, people have become much more dependent. She stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around his waist and said seriously, "What you make is delicious." ”

Cheng Wei laughed low and said, "When did Xiao Ahe's mouth become so sweet? Let me taste it." ”

He made a flirtatious look as he spoke, reached out and lifted Zhou He's chin, and kissed it.

But after a superficial taste, he let go of her, looked at her moist reddish lips, and couldn't help touching it, and said, "Sit well, it'll be fine for a while." ”

His concentration was limited, and he got up and went to the kitchen.

Although Zhou He was arranged to sit well, Zhou He didn't sit, she slept a little long today, got up and walked to the kitchen door, and watched him start making noodles.

There are only a handful of aunts who cook in Cheng Wei, and most of them are in the middle of the night when Zhou He wants to eat supper, so he will do it. But he's already very skilled.

After Zhou He's pregnancy, the refrigerator was well stocked, and the aunt was replenishing fresh ingredients almost every day. So everything is ready-made, and it didn't take long for Cheng Wei to make fried noodles.

He didn't get enough to eat, so he made himself a bowl. The two bowls were served on the table together, and then Zhou He was beckoned to sit down and eat.

Zhou He was already drooling, and he ate it now.

Cheng Wei asked her to slow down, and poured another glass of water and put it next to her.

Zhou He ate a small half bowl, and his movements slowed down.

Since the wedding, she has not seen Li Peiyuan again. Recently, the newspapers have been reporting on the case on Hehuan Street from time to time, and she asked: "It's the New Year, is my little uncle back?"

Li Peiyuan's movements were fast, and in a short period of time, he dealt with several cases that others couldn't pry. and handed over all those involved to the prosecutor's office. There are also those who have taken bribes and taken personal gains, and have been removed from office and sanctioned.

He was also cooperating with the investigation during this time, but he didn't want Zhou He to worry, so he didn't tell her.

Because of this, he knows a little bit about Li Peiyuan's recent itinerary. Hearing her ask, he sighed and said, "It's still over there in Yucheng, and I should be able to come back after a while." ”

Zhou He nodded, thinking that the old mansion of the Li family would be deserted during the New Year. With Li Peiyuan's character, it is impossible to go to the He family or other uncles' houses to celebrate the New Year. But he was alone.

Zhou He thought about it, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Can you invite my little uncle to come to our house for the New Year?"

She used 'our family', the corners of Cheng Wei's lips subconsciously raised, and said, "Of course, I'll call him when he comes back." ”

After thinking about it for a while, he said: "I also asked my aunt to prepare double copies of New Year's goods, and if he refused to come, I asked someone to send him a copy of New Year's goods." ”

Li Pei is far away from Kyoto, and the original aunt has also resigned. At this time, there was only one driver who took care of the yard in the Li family's old house. I'm afraid I didn't even think of preparing this thing for the New Year.

Cheng Wei thought thoughtfully, and Zhou He responded with a New Year's greeting. Thinking that Li Peiyuan might not come over, he thought that she would go to the Li family's old house after he came back.

After the two finished their supper, they were afraid that Zhou He would return to accumulate food, so Cheng Wei watched TV with her for a while, until she fell asleep again, and then carried her upstairs.

Winters in Kyoto are dry and cold, and Zhou He hardly goes out and spends all day in the house. The flowers and trees in the house are taken care of by the gardener, and they are also lush in this season, and they do not feel monotonous.

On the day of Laba, Kyoto experienced its first snow of the year. The snowflakes were fluttering, and in the courtyard and the small pavilion, a layer of snow fell on the trees.

Zhou He hadn't been out for a while, and now he saw the snow and wanted to go out to play in the snow. Cheng Wei was also used to her, wrapped her thickly, and led her out for a walk. Pinched the snowball and placed it in her thickly gloved hand. He brought a shovel and began to build a snowman in the yard.

Although Zhou He couldn't pile it together, he was also very excited to help hand over something occasionally on the side.

The aunt didn't approve of the two of them playing outside, and although they were sweating outside, when they returned to the house, the aunt immediately brought hot ginger soup for both of them to drink.

Although Zhou He had a bitter face, he still drank a bowl of ginger soup.

This is a special time, and Cheng Wei also drank honestly.

The snow fell heavier in the afternoon, and neither of them went out again. Cheng Wei didn't have much to do today, and after replying to a few emails, he accompanied Zhou He to watch TV.

The room was warm, Zhou He snuggled in his arms, listening to the aunt who was in and out of the kitchen talking about this year's snow, Cheng Wei suddenly remembered the heavy snow in Yucheng that year.

In fact, every winter after that, he would think of the heavy snowfall. To this day, he still remembered how she stood outside the door soaking wet when he opened it.

Cheng Wei couldn't help but hug her tighter, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, and called out to Ahe.

Zhou Hezheng was fascinated by watching TV, and did not notice the change in his mood, although he answered, his eyes still fell on the TV. After a while, the ad was inserted, and she remembered that she hadn't asked him anything, so she looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Cheng Wei kissed her on the forehead again, and said softly, "Not much." He paused for a moment and asked, "Is there anything you want to eat, I'll ask him to bring it along the way." ”

Zhou He's eyes rolled around, and he looked in the direction of the kitchen like a thief, and said, "I really want to eat hot pot, can we go out to eat hot pot secretly?" You tell Auntie to go to the villa. ”

Since she became pregnant, she has barely eaten outside. The aunt told her that she was pregnant, and she had to be careful when eating.

Li Ying naturally agrees very much, often her idea of going out to eat has just come to her, and she doesn't dare to have it anymore when she is nagged.

Cheng Wei laughed lowly at this time, but did not immediately agree. Seeing Zhou He's eyes looking at him, he chuckled and said, "Call my husband, I'll go tell Auntie." ”

Although he is a veritable husband, the word husband is a little awkward. His face was slightly red, but he still called his husband in the end.

Cheng Wei laughed, kissed her heavily on the face, and said, "My wife is so good." ”

He talked a lot, and he went to tell his aunt later, saying that he would go to the He family's villa, so that there was no need to prepare their dinner.

The aunt didn't doubt him, and asked if she would come back in the evening.

Cheng Wei answered them one by one, and then took Zhou He to change into a thick down jacket, went to the garage and drove the car out of the door.

Although the snow is heavy, there is no snow on the road due to the heavy traffic outside. It's just that the road is slippery, although it is not during the rush hour, there are still some small blockages.

Zhou He came out once, and there was still some time before the meal, so Cheng Wei took her to the mall. Buy her clothes. Zhou He didn't come out for a long time and was very interested, although he was still a few months away, he still took Cheng Wei to visit the mother and baby store. Obviously, I was just shopping, but I ended up buying a lot of things.

After shopping around five o'clock, the two went to eat hot pot. Knowing that she was hungry quickly, after sitting down, Cheng Wei first asked for a dessert for her to cushion her stomach.

There were a lot of people in the store in this weather, and the two waited for a long time before serving the bottom of the pot and the dishes. Zhou He's appetite was so great that he sweated all over.

Cheng Wei didn't eat much, and helped to shabu the meat. Whatever she wanted to eat, she would immediately put it in a bowl.

The meal was unusually satisfying, and she had walked a little too much today, and was more likely to get sleepy when she was full, so much so that she fell asleep in the car. It wasn't until Cheng Wei carried her back to the bedroom that she opened her eyes in a daze.

As time slowly passed, the flavor of the New Year began to get stronger and stronger. The streets are lit up. The courtyard was also decorated with joy, and a red lantern was hung at the door.

Although the aunt prepared the New Year's goods early, Li Ying was probably afraid that the preparations would not be complete, so she asked the driver to send a lot of New Year's goods on the twentieth day of the lunar month.

She knew that the company had a lot of things to do in the past few days, so she called again and asked Zhou He if she wanted to stay with her for a few days. was worried that Cheng Wei would be busy with entertainment and couldn't accompany her.

The He family is a big family, and Zhou He knows a lot about her. I didn't make trouble at this time, saying that it was the New Year.

After the New Year, it is a New Year's greeting, and Li Ying is not reluctant. Just let her tell her aunt what to do and let her aunt do it, she is now unable to move, so she should be more careful.

Zhou Yiyi responded.

It was already the end of the year, and Zhou He waited for Li Peiyuan to come back, but he never came back. He didn't know if he was too busy or what, and he didn't get it after she called twice. I answered the phone, but hung up without saying a word.

Zhou He waited until the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, but still didn't hear the news of Li Peiyuan's return, so he asked the driver to send her to the Li family's old house, planning to go over to see what was going on.

Cheng Wei has been busy in the past few days, and he often comes back and sometimes it's twelve o'clock. She hadn't told him in the past.

Although there was a driver following, her aunt was not at ease when she went out, and she had to follow along to find out.

Zhou He was helpless, and repeatedly promised that she would come back soon after a past trip, so she gave up.

The owner has been absent for a long time, and although the old house is clean, it is deserted in the end.

Fan Bo, the driver who watched the yard, has been in the Li family's old mansion since he was young and has witnessed the prosperity and decline of this mansion.

Zhou He hadn't been over for a long time, and he didn't expect her to come. I was surprised to see her, and when I saw her with a big belly, I hurriedly beckoned her to sit in the house.

He didn't live in the old house, but in the house next to the garage so that he could listen to the movement outside. The house didn't even turn on the heating, it was cold and cold.

He went to turn on the heating and poured a cup of hot water for Zhou He, and then asked, "Why are you here?"

Although Zhou He is dressed thickly, his hands and feet are still cold. She picked up the cup and took a sip of hot water, her body warmed up a little, and said, "I'll bring some New Year's goods over and see when my little uncle will come back." ”

The driver has moved in all the New Year's goods brought in from the car.

Fan Bo was surprised when he heard Zhou He's words, and asked, "Don't you know? Mr. Xiao Li will not come back for the New Year this year." ”

Zhou He couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Why?"

Fan Bo smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "I don't know either. A few days ago, Miss Li Tian came over once and said that Mr. Xiao Li would not come back for the New Year. I didn't believe it at first, but then I called him and found out that he really wasn't coming back for the Chinese New Year this year. I asked if I was busy with work, but he didn't answer, and asked me to go back to my house tomorrow for the New Year. said that Mr. Da Li would arrange someone to come over and take care of it. ”

Fan Bo said that, which means that Li Peiyuan will not come back for the New Year, it has been decided a long time ago. But when Li Ying called a few days ago, she didn't mention it at all.

Zhou He sat in a daze for a long time, then came back to his senses, squeezed out a smile and said to Uncle Fan that he knew.

She wanted to call Li Peiyuan immediately and ask him why he didn't come back, but thinking that he was still at work, she still restrained herself.

Some New Year's goods can't be put away for a long time, so Zhou He asked Fan Bo to bring some back for the New Year. Call her if something happens.

She didn't stay here long, but she returned home in about half an hour. On the way home, she was sullen and didn't speak.

Cheng Wei still came back late this night, Zhou He sat until nine o'clock, and estimated that Li Peiyuan should rest at this time, so he took out his mobile phone and called him.

In the past, no one answered the phone, but today's call was completely unreachable, and I couldn't get through for the time being after calling several times in a row, and I didn't know what Li Peiyuan was doing.

Zhou He had to put down his phone now. I'm thinking I'll fight later. But the call never went through.

She originally planned to wait for Cheng Wei to come back and ask, but in the end she couldn't wait. I was so sleepy that I had to go back to my room and sleep first.

When Cheng Wei came back, it was already more than twelve o'clock, tonight was the company's annual meeting, and many customers were invited.

Although he was a little drunk, his mind was very clear. When he got home, he went to the guest bedroom to wash up and change his clothes, and then returned to his and Zhou He's room.

Zhou He had something in his heart, he didn't sleep very deeply, he had just laid down in the quilt when she woke up.

Cheng Wei came in without turning on the lights, and the room was pitch black. There was some cold air on his body, and he didn't dare to go next to Zhou He immediately.

Zhou He opened his sleepy eyes and looked at him, and said, "I'm back." ”

Cheng Wei snorted and said in a low voice, "Did you wake you up?" ”

Zhou He yawned and said no. He asked, "Are you going to be busy today?"

These days, he left early and will come late. The two met and talked every day in the middle of the night, Cheng Wei felt sorry in his heart, and said: "There is still something to deal with tomorrow, and there will be a holiday tomorrow." If you want to think about where to play, I'll take you there when the time comes. ”

Zhou He shook his head and said that he would not go anywhere.

Li Peiyuan's phone couldn't get through, she was a little worried, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I went to the Li family's old house today, Uncle Fan said that the little uncle will not come back for the New Year this year, do you know?"

Cheng Wei didn't know about this at all, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and said, "I don't know." His brows furrowed slightly, and he added, "As far as I know, the matter over there has almost been dealt with, and under normal circumstances, there is nothing to do." Why don't you come back?"

Zhou He shook his head and said, "I also listened to what Uncle Fan said, and I don't know why I didn't come back." When I came back, I called several times to ask, but my uncle's mobile phone was temporarily unreachable. ”

If there is a task being performed, it is normal for the phone to not connect.

Cheng Wei didn't want Zhou He to worry, didn't mention it, gently stroked her hair, and said: "It's normal when the mobile phone can't get through occasionally, maybe the signal is not good." ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "Tomorrow I will let the people over there pay attention, my uncle should have a reason not to come back for the New Year, don't think nonsense, sleep well, I will tell you if there is news tomorrow." ”

As he spoke, he gently kissed Zhou He's forehead.

It's useless to worry, Zhou He nodded and said yes.

But in the end, she was already awake, and she couldn't sleep for a while. Remembering what Uncle Fan said, she hesitated slightly, and then said, "If my uncle doesn't come back, my cousin seems to know." Fan Bo also learned from his cousin first. ”

Even if so much time has passed, Li Ying's smashing in the ward is still in Zhou He's heart. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and asked, "Could there be something wrong with my little uncle and him?"

After the old lady passed away, the old mansion has always been deserted, Li Peiyuan thought about the old lady, so he never stayed in the old mansion for the New Year. Zhou He couldn't figure out why he didn't come back this year.
