Yes.

Rachel is pregnant.

And it's been seven months.

That's why Rachel didn't choose to rush to Texas when she heard from Jack that Luke might be disappearing for a while.

Calculate the time.

Presumably when Luke and Hill set off for Texas, Rachel was already pregnant.

Because at that time, Rachel said, relatives seem to be postponed.

But......

Luke and Rachel didn't care at the time, after all, the relatives postponed the matter, because work, work, rest, and mood were all possible.

Rachel, who bluffed with a pretty face and didn't want to pay attention to people, rolled her eyes when she looked at the picture of Luke squatting on the ground and putting her ear to her stomach.

"I didn't say, it's my son."

"Hey, hey."

Luke looked up and looked at Rachel who finally spoke up with a smile: "Finally willing to speak?" ”

Rachel once again reverted to her pretty and cold face.

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you."

"Son, for sure."

"How do you know?"

"Look."

Luke got up with a smile, and then, raising his eyebrows, looked at Rachel: "This is the eldest son of our family." ”

The eldest son.

Because Luke talks about being a traditional Oriental all day long, Rachel, who is already smart and studious, will naturally deliberately learn and understand these Eastern traditions.

In the traditional literature of the Eastern Kingdom, the patriarchal system represented by the eldest son constitutes the strongest cornerstone of this part of the tradition.

The eldest son, the first son born to the wife of the ancient patriarchal system.

But that's not the point.

At the very least, it wasn't the point of Rucker's sudden remark.

The primogeniture system is the key.

That is, the throne and property must be inherited by the eldest son!

That's the point of why Rucker said this.

Obviously.

Luke is using this sentence to admit his mistake or reassure Rachel, no matter how much he plays outside.

His authority, his property, will be inherited by his eldest son, who was born to Rachel.

After all......

Who let Rachel be the wife he is marrying in the door.

Rachel, who understood Luke's voice, looked at Luke's seemingly flattering smile on his face, because the resentment of Luke and San'er Lang who had disappeared in Texas for no reason for more than half a year gradually disappeared.

But Rachel still gave Luke an angry look.

"I'm not allowed to lose contact next time."

"I promise."

Luke raised his hand and made an oath, finally eliminating a possible hidden crisis in his infancy.

The next day.

The door to the apartment was wide open.

Lorna, who was wearing a cyan T-shirt, ran in, closed the door, and shouted impatiently before she could turn around.

"Brother!"

Lorna turned around, then looked at Luke behind the bar, and hurriedly ran over and hugged Luke: "Wow, you're finally back." ”

Lu Ke hurriedly shouted: "Pot, pot, I'll be away for half a year, as for it, it makes me feel like I've been away for six years." ”

Lorna let go: "Can this be the same, you have never been away for such a long time before, and you haven't had a phone call for half a year, you don't know how worried your sister-in-law has been about you in the past six months." ”

Rachel, who was sitting on a barstool, listened to Lorna's words and looked at Lorna with a smile on her face.

Not bad.

She didn't hurt in vain.

Since Lorna found out about her pregnancy, Lorna moved directly from her apartment to the Star Building, and she was known as helping to take care of her.

And every month's physical examination, Lorna followed along.

Yesterday, I knew that Luke was coming back, so I went back to my apartment to make room for it, so as not to disturb my brother and sister-in-law, who would definitely complain to each other.

It's not.

Early this morning, Lorna drove back to the Star Building.

on the dining table.

Lorna chattered and talked about the events that happened at home and their school in the six months since Luke disappeared.

It's a trivial matter, but Lorna talks about it interestingly, and Luke wants to hear it.

The fireworks in the world.

Nothing more.

With the power of life and death on the earth in hand, and his small universe is getting closer and closer, there is also a feeling that he once had, but after a long absence, but now he has returned, it seems to have returned again.

That is.

Life and death are free, what you want is what you want, the destiny is in me, those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die.

It's a wonderful feeling, but it's also a terrible feeling.

After all......

Arrogance can make people arrogant.

Arrogance is not a good thing.

Therefore, Lu Ke plans to take advantage of the fact that nothing is happening at the moment, and stay at home carefully, so as not to go out at this time and meet someone who is not long-sighted, and in the end, his temper will surge, and the whole earth will be directly blown up.

If this is the case, then isn't the authority of life and death on the earth taken for nothing?

"That's right."

Rachel looked at Luke and Lorna, who were helping to clean up the dishes behind the bar after eating, and said loudly: "I approved the holiday, it just so happens that Lorna is also on summer vacation, and you are also back, let's travel abroad?" ”

Lorna's eyes lit up and she looked up at Rachel, "Really? After speaking, Rachel, who thought of being pregnant now, shook her head and said, "No, sister-in-law, you are pregnant." ”

Rachel smiled, "It's three months before the due date, it's early, Luke, you say." ”

Luke put the plate in the sterilizer: "I listen to you." ”

On the second day after returning, you can't float yet, and all actions are subject to command.

Pregnant women.

Maintaining a good mood is the most important thing.

When Rachel heard this, she looked at Lorna: "Lorna, is there any place you want to go?" ”

Lorna's eyes lit up.

"Three Kingdoms."

"No way!"

When Lu Ke heard this, his face turned dark: "This can't work." ”

Ah San?

Is that a place where normal people can go?

He has been planning to cultivate his life for a while, and if he goes to Ah San, there is a 90% probability that Ah San will definitely be removed from the world.

Lorna blinked, as good as a stream.

"Island nation?"

"That's not going to work."

This time, it was not Luke, but Rachel, who shook her head and said: "There was an earthquake in the island country yesterday, not big, but, the report said that it has entered an active period of earthquake, and when you have winter vacation, we can go and soak in the hot springs by the way." ”

Lorna let out an oh and rolled her eyes.

"Paris?"

"That's even worse."

Rachel smiled and looked at Lorna: "You forgot, the Eiffel Tower is gone, Paris is crying, there are a lot of parades." ”

Lorna nodded when she heard this.

Oh yes.

There is no Eiffel Tower in Paris, so why do you go there?

And......

Paris has been heavily blackened lately and is not very safe.

Lorna thought about the picture of watching the news a few days ago, and the picture of the circle of people in the march, with almost 60% of the black complexion, quickly shook her head: "Forget it, don't go to Paris." ”

However, Ah San was vetoed by his brother, the island country has an earthquake, and there is no iron tower in Paris.

So where else can you go?

Lorna moved her little head and thought earnestly.

Luke drank Bourbon and did not participate.

He is only responsible for deciding whether the result is appropriate or not after it is known.

Rachel looked at Lorna, who was racking her brains and thinking seriously, and smiled: "Why don't you go to Sokovia to see the two foreign friends you met last year." ”

Last year, when the family traveled to Eastern Europe, Lorna met a pair of sisters there and became friends.

Even if Lorna returned from Eastern Europe, she was not cut off.

Often videos are not counted, and they often take photos to share their daily lives, and the relationship can't be said to be good enough to be sisters, but basically there is no difference with sisters.

Lorna's eyes lit up again when she listened to Rachel's proposal, and then shook her head and said, "A few days ago, Wanda said that there seems to be turmoil in Sokovia, and the family plans to go to Poland to live for a while. ”

Rachel shrugged: "Then let's go to Poland too." ”

Between words.

Rachel thought of the picture of her trip to Poland last year and looked up at Luke: "It just so happened that we were in a hurry to go to Poland that time, so we basically didn't see it much. ”

Luke nodded.

Last year, Poland was the last stop on their trip, and it was added by Luke on the fly.

Therefore, the reserved time is not very sufficient, yes, just a hasty walk around for a day or two before leaving for home.

Rachel saw that Luke had no objection and looked at Lorna: "You ask your little friend if he has been to Poland." ”

Lorna wiped her hands with a towel and ran towards the second floor: "I'll ask now, wait for me." ”

If you can go abroad to meet your friends, you can go to Poland.

Soon.

Lorna went upstairs and disappeared around the corner.

Rachel withdrew her gaze from the second floor and looked at Luke: "Last year, we seemed to be in Poznan. ”

Luke took a sip of Bourbon, "Yes." ”

City of Poznan.

A place for Lao Wan to retire.

That's right.

If Wanda and Quicksilver really go to Poland as well, plus Lorna's words.

That......

Hiss.

Lao Wan's children, this is the rhythm of reunion.

Gee.

Luke couldn't help but think of certain images in his mind.

Rachel didn't think much about it, but thought about her trip to Poznan last year: "What impressed me the most was the small stream and the meadow, and the pace was very slow, which was quite suitable for meditation. ”

She doesn't really have any special requirements for the destination she travels to.

Just a little.

Just be safe.

However, there are basically no surprises at this point.

After all, Luke is the director of the FBI in New York State, and in terms of vacation travel, security, there is no need for Luke to speak out, and Jack, the biggest loyal minister, will arrange it properly.

It's like when she and Lorna went out in the past six months, they were followed by more than 30 federal agents in plainclothes.

A thought of this.

Rachel looked at Luke, "Jack is good. ”

Luke nodded, "Indeed." ”

Again, that's the same sentence.

Jack may not be very strong, but he is very loyal, so Luke doesn't mind investing a lot of resources and cultivating Jack hard.

He looks at people, not strength, but loyalty.

Just as the two of them were talking.

Lorna also made a phone call, but her face was a little ugly.
