Chapter Sixty-Eight: Let's Have a Baby
Although Xu Nuo's mood improved under Li Shaohui's persuasion, the pain caused by the successive blows of reality will not be healed in a while. Li Shaohui looked at Xu Yu depressed all day long, and he was very anxious but helpless.
One day, Li Shaohui received a call from Lu Yao on the way to work, she said that she was pregnant, Li Shaohui was overjoyed and couldn't help but congratulate repeatedly, but Lu Yao didn't appreciate it, and angrily scolded him for not visiting his only sister for so long.
The angry Lu Yao attacked him again with Li Shaohui's single dog, and said that he had found a few more girls for him, Li Shaohui couldn't cry or laugh, since his mother handed over the big matter of his singleness to Lu Yao, she was very concerned, as long as it was a woman, she would inquire and advise herself.
Facing the enthusiastic Lu Yao, Li Shaohui could only smile bitterly: "Sister Yaoyao, don't worry about it, I'll give you a surprise when I go to visit you." ”
"What kind of surprise? do you have a partner? really fake? male or female?" Lu Yao's series of questions made Li Shaohui grit his teeth and said, "Sister Yaoyao, if you do this again, I won't go!"
"Okay, don't talk about it, come here in the evening, bring your surprise, otherwise I'll have to worry about it for you!"
Li Shaohui went home from work early in the afternoon and told Xu Xu about the invitation, and Xu Xu asked, "Whose banquet is it?"
"It's my college classmate, and I have a very good relationship, almost like a relative. ”
"Is it appropriate for me to go?"
Li Shaohui looked at the promise that was a little weak and reluctant, and after a slight groan in his heart, he already understood her worries, and said with a smile: "Why is it not suitable? The ugly daughter-in-law also has to see her in-laws!"
"What did you say?" The annoyed promise threw away a pillow, Li Shaohui took it easily, knowing that this joke had dispelled her concerns, and the reason why he took the promise to see Lu Yao and Yu Qiangzhai was to show his own attitude and make the promise feel relieved.
When he arrived at Lu Yao and Yu Qiangzhai's home, he promised to give the gift in his hand to Lu Yao, and according to Li Shaohui's instructions, Sister Yaoyao shouted enthusiastically. And Li Shaohui stared at Lu Yao's belly for a long time, and didn't see any signs of pregnancy, so he wondered: "Sister Yaoyao, look at your airport-like belly, it won't be deliberately tricking us to come over and give us gifts, right?"
At this time, Yu Qiangzhai answered and said with a smile: "It's less than a month, so I can't see it." ”
"Oh, I said!" Li Shaohui suddenly realized, and suddenly smiled evilly: "I can't see it in my stomach, but I can see it in my buttocks, and it has become bigger and more warped." ”
"Li Shaohui, what are you talking about? Are you making such a joke about your sister?" Although Lu Yao is bold on weekdays, she can't help but blush, holding a broom and chasing Li Shaohui, while hatefully saying: "I let you have no door on your mouth, I let you go to the house to uncover the tiles without beating for three days..."
"Help, murder. Li Shaohui shouted in horror.
A subtle look flashed on Xu Promise's face, and Yu Qiangzhai also stopped the two with a wry smile, and said: "You two, you fights as soon as you meet, how can you have a sister and brother, let others laugh." ”
The banquet was warm and romantic when Yu Lu and the two did not recognize the promise, and Lu Yao kept giving the promise a dish halfway, asking questions, and her face was full of love, if it weren't for the fact that the two were of the same age, they would be considered a pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who got along well. During this period, Yu Qiangzhai was also full of longing and yearning when he talked about the upcoming wedding, and Li Shaohui was so sour that he also took the promise on his shoulder and announced that he and the promise would strive to hold the wedding before them.
And what made Li Shaohui even more speechless was that during the meal, Lu Yao kept touching her flat lower abdomen with her hands.
"Sister Yaoyao, your child won't be touched with your hands, right?" Li Shaohui started to be unorthodox again, but this time Lu Yao was not angry, Xu Promise gave him a warning look, and after that, Xu Promise humbly asked Lu Yao about pregnancy.
But Li Shaohui disagreed, "Famous teachers produce high apprentices, mediocre teachers, that is, the children of misguided people, Lu Yao is only less than a month pregnant, and she is still a mother who doesn't understand anything, it is better to ask herself, but she still has a deep curiosity in college and has taken a subject called 'physiology'!"
Before leaving after dinner, Lu Yao took out a brand new men's jacket and handed it to Xu Promise, saying: "This was originally bought by me for Li Shaohui, and this task will be handed over to you in the future, you can remember to clean up for him often, he is very sloppy, a coat can be worn for a quarter without washing, so I introduced him to several objects and it is no fun, I don't know how you can fall in love with him?"
"Hey, what are you talking about? Is there a sister like you?" Li Shaohui looked at Lu Yao dissatisfied.
However, Lu Yao ignored him at all, and only talked to Xu Yu: "Duo'er, you can rest assured that if Li Shaohui dares to bully you, you tell me and see how I clean him up." ”
When Xu Yu and Li Shaohui went downstairs, Lu Yao suddenly called again to ask Li Shaohui to go up. Li Shaohui was a little puzzled, there was something he couldn't talk about on the phone, he had to let himself go.
After entering the house, Lu Yao gave a big red envelope to Li Shaohui, and complained at the same time: "Li Shaohui, you have to hide this surprise, I thought you were joking! ”
Li Shaohui looked at the heavy red envelope and refused to take it, so he said: "Sister Yaoyao, you are about to get married, then you will have to spend a lot of money, and the cost of the child will be even more when the child is born, so you should keep it for yourself!"
Li Shaohui's kindness made Lu Yao unhappy, "This is our intention, and it is also a kind of etiquette, if you don't accept it, let us behave as a person? Besides, this red envelope is not for you, what right do you have to refuse?"
Li Shaohui had no choice but to take it, and when he was about to go out, Lu Yao said again: "Your girlfriend Duo'er, where do I seem to have met?"
Li Shaohui's heart was empty, and he hurriedly smiled: "My sister and brother and sister are originally a family, so naturally they look familiar." ”
Before Li Shaohui's words fell, Yu Qiangzhai patted his head and said: "I remember, she is the school flower of the same music department in our school, and she has tried it with Shaohui and Tang Fengling!" Yu Qiangzhai said and walked next to Li Shaohui and said: "No wonder I think she is very familiar, Lao Li, you forgot, when we went to find Mr. Lu Yuan last time, the young lady that Mr. Lu called in was her, and then you came back and kept talking to us about her, and everyone sighed for her!"
Looking at Lu Yao and Yu Qiangzhai's strange eyes, Li Shaohui smiled, knowing that he couldn't hide it, so he told the truth, explaining that he had promised to quit a long time ago, and now he has found a white-collar job and started working.
However, Lu Yao on the side was still full of displeasure, she snatched the red envelope in Li Shaohui's hand, and asked: "Li Shaohui, what's the matter with you? How can you find such a woman? If your parents know, they can't be angry with you?"
Lu Yao's contempt for the promise made Li Shaohui displeased, so he said: "If you don't say this kind of thing, I don't say it, who can know?"
Lu Yao glared at Li Shaohui dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice: "What, you still want us to help you hide and deceive your godmother, I think you are just stunned by others." ”
Li Shaohui knew that in this case, he must have a resolute attitude in order for others to accept the promise, so he said solemnly: "Sister Yaoyao, you don't have to worry about this matter, I don't know if I'm dizzy or not, but I know that I just like people now, and I can't do without them." ”
Lu Yao's pretty face sank, and she said angrily: "Li Shaohui, you are actually angry with me for that kind of woman?" When Lu Yao said this, her eyes were slightly moist, and her tone began to choke, she paused and said: "Li Shaohui, I don't care how you quibble, you broke up with her as soon as possible, if you have to die, then I can't hide it for you, I will definitely tell my godmother." ”
Li Shaohui looked at Lu Yao with an aggrieved face, and suddenly felt ashamed, people had no relatives with her, but since she recognized her as her sister, she has always cared about herself, often takes care of herself, and treats herself like a brother. Let's just talk about this matter now, smart people will stop and persuade a few words, who will be angry about a thing that has nothing to do with them and affect their friendship with each other?"
Thinking like this, Li Shaohui smiled weakly, "Sister Yaoyao, don't be angry, let's discuss something slowly! You said that you are also a woman, and you understand the difficulties of women, but if there is a way, who will fall into that kind of place? It must be a last resort, desperate, and besides, the prodigal son has already washed his hands and won't change it, who hasn't done anything wrong, wouldn't it be good to change it?"
Lu Yao was said by Li Shaohui, and her anger gradually subsided, "Shaohui, you still listen to your sister, marriage is not a matter of one person, when the time comes, you can't hide it, your parents know about it, how do you end it?"
"Didn't I say it, as long as the three of us don't say it, no one will know about it. ”
"Do you have to do it today..."Lu Yao said and began to get angry again, as she was talking, there was a knock on the door, Yu Qiangzhai hurriedly glanced at it, walked over and opened the door.
The person who came was promised, she smiled slightly, and asked everyone: "I saw that Shaohui hadn't come out for a long time, so I wondered if you needed any help, so I also came up to take a look." ”
"No, no, it's just a casual chat, but I forgot about you, I'm really embarrassed!" Yu Qiangzhai explained with a smile.
Li Shaohui looked at Lu Yao, who was displeased, and gave Yu Qiangzhai a look to help comfort him, and hurriedly walked downstairs with Xu Nuo.
After leaving the door of the building, Yu Qiangzhai smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lao Li, everything has me, when do you sisters and brothers meet without fighting or quarreling? There are also brothers and sisters who often come, we are welcome here at any time." ”
After Li Shaohui and Lu Yao broke up unhappily, they were in a bad mood, and he was worried that if what he said just now was promised to hear, it would make matters worse.
After a while, Xu Yu suddenly grabbed Li Shaohui's left arm and asked faintly, "Husband, how am I doing today?
Li Shaohui's heart was relieved, and he promised to ask this way to show that she didn't hear the argument between herself and Lu Yao, so he smiled and said: "You behaved very well, he was full of praise for you, let me marry you home quickly, and save yourself from being the first to be taken advantage of in this world where there are more wolves and less meat." As for the reason why she is unhappy, it is not because of the vanity of your women, once you see that you are more beautiful than yourself, you will be jealous and unhappy. ”
If Lu Yao knew that her kindness was so slandered by Li Shaohui, a white-eyed wolf, it is estimated that she would have the heart to kill Li Shaohui.
This night, the night was as quiet and gentle as water, and the faint moonlight floated in through the screen window, flickering and flickering, adding an ambiguous atmosphere.
This night, Xu Promise seemed to be infected by the environment, and suddenly took the initiative and pestered Li Shaohui to make trouble, Li Shaohui was already young and vigorous, how could he bear to promise to be so coquettish, so the two were emotional, and they became entangled and began to rise and fall.
At the moment when Li Shaohui's hormones were the most vigorous and his face was red, he was about to open the drawer and take precautions, but he blushed when he made a promise, took his hand, and said softly: "That's it, don't look for it." ”
Li Shaohui was pleasantly surprised, but he was also very puzzled in his heart, this was a mandatory condition of the promise before, otherwise... How did it change today?
No matter what, the arrow is ready to fly, and it has to be sent.
In the gentle moonlight, Li Shaohui and Xu Yu intertwined several times, until they were both exhausted and could not continue.
Li Shaohui turned over and left the promise, lying on the side tiredly, his consciousness began to blur, as if floating in the air, everything around him was so far away, so unreal...
And Xu Yu also stared at the roof in a daze, silent. The pale yellow light gently caressed her flower-like face, and the room was full of lazy decadence.
"Let's have a baby!" After a long time, Xu Promise's lips moved, as if he was talking to himself, "Husband, do you like boys or girls?"
"Child?" Li Shaohui slowed down for a while before he woke up from the ethereal chaos, he turned over and hugged lightly, caressing the satin-smooth skin, and he kept saying silently, "Child, child." ”
Li Shaohui didn't expect that he could have children, once upon a time, he thought that this was an unattainable dream when he was single, and at that time he still faintly felt in his heart that he had not grown up yet, he was a child, let alone his own child.
Xu Yue turned sideways and looked at Li Shaohui, with a bit of maternal sacredness and love in his tender eyes, "Do you say it's better for boys or girls?"
"Of course it's a girl. ”
"Huh?"
"If you give birth to a girl, and you are as beautiful as you, when the time comes, I will lead you out, holding a big beauty in my left hand and a little beauty in my right hand, what a beautiful thing you say is that!" Li Shaohui looked forward to it, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
"Look at your beauty, but I like boys!"
"Boy, forget it, that's raising a son, that's raising an ancestor. Li Shaohui looked at Xu Yue's slightly surprised eyes, and explained: "You think, raise a boy, you have been naughty since you were a child, we parents have an endless heart, and when you grow up, you have to buy him a house and marry a daughter-in-law... These realities are scary to think about. Li Shaohui said and deliberately shuddered.
Xu Yu didn't think so, she pinched Li Shaohui's arm, and said with a light smile: "According to what you say, Auntie raised you so big, isn't it bad luck for eight lifetimes?"
"So, when my mother saw me, she had an expression of hatred on her teeth, and she always said that she owed me in her previous life, and God sent me to collect debts from her in this life. ”
"Okay, Li Shaohui, how dare you slander your aunt so much behind your back, see if I tell her?" Xu promised with a smile and threatened. But Li Shaohui didn't care, and said with a smile: "If you want to see my mother, then you have to marry me, otherwise, I will take you to get a marriage certificate tomorrow to have fun." ”
"Stinky beauty, haven't you proposed to me yet?" Xu Yu smiled slightly, and said: "I just thought about it again, you said that if you have a daughter like you in your life, with small eyes and a big mouth and a collapsed nose, what should I do?"
"You dare to scandalize your husband like this?" Li Shaohui was a little dissatisfied, stretched out his hand to the waist of the promise, and scratched it.
The two made a fuss for a while, and Li Shaohui, who calmed down, was still caught off guard by the sudden suggestion of the promise, although it is much more open now, but unmarried and pregnant, it will still be somewhat despised, and the current reality of the two does not allow them to have children, they are penniless, they have just gained a firm foothold in the company, everything is not ready, and the promise has been difficult to adapt to this society recently, which is worrying.
"Isn't she unaware of this? Then what is she proposing..."Li Shaohui watched the beautiful woman in his arms curl up like a kitten, and suddenly understood the meaning of promising to do this--- in order to add a guarantee to the love between himself and her.
Li Shaohui, who wanted to understand the reason, said: "Duo'er, I understand your feelings, if you don't have a sense of security, the two of us can get married first, and then talk about the children when the conditions are ripe, and then we will have a litter." ”
Xu Yu blushed, coquettishly disagreed, and said: "I'm just joking, you want to have children, I still have to see your follow-up performance!"
After saying this, the knot of the promise was also opened, and Li Shaohui, who had let go of his heart, also became sleepy in pleasure, and slowly fell asleep, but the promise full of worries was completely sleepy, she thought of the words that Lu Yao and Li Shaohui said alone, her mood became more and more confused, and she let out a faint sigh in the deep night.
Neither of them knew that this night, this ordinary decision, would become a permanent regret between the two of them.
