"Your mother is too fat," Guo Xuyang transmitted a signal to the fetus.
The fetus blinked its eyes as if it understood.
The umbilical cord of the infant seemed to fill with blood, slowly becoming plumper.
"It hurts," Elena quickly grabbed Guo Xuyang's hand and said.
"Take it slow, this is your mother," Guo Xuyang looked at the fetus.
The fetus, in its muddled understanding, unconsciously slowed its absorption rate.
"How is it? Does it still hurt?" Guo Xuyang asked.
"It's better now, not so painful anymore."
"Mm. It's mainly because you don't exercise enough usually.
In the future, when you have time, call Yang Yang, Xiao Xi, and them to accompany you to stroll by the artificial lake.
Tomorrow, Ye Zi, Yu Er, and I are going to the capital. You'll stay home and rest well.
This time, I'll be gone for a longer period, and it's hard to say when I'll be back. If you feel like you're about to give birth, give me a call."
"Okay, Yangzi. You go ahead and be busy. Auntie is here anyway. I'll call you then."
"Then you rest, I'll go tell Mom and Dad." Guo Xuyang said as he was about to leave.
"Touch him, I can feel him moving," Elena said, pulling Guo Xuyang's hand.
Guo Xuyang placed his hand on Elena's belly, and the fetus's little feet stretched out, kicking Guo Xuyang's palm twice.
"Do you feel it? I feel him kicking me," Elena said with surprise.
"Mm. He kicked my hand. I felt it," Guo Xuyang said, looking at the fetus.
The corner of the fetus's mouth actually curved, as if it were laughing at him.
"Mischievous," Guo Xuyang sent a thought to the fetus, then stood up.
"Alright, I need to go and see. You rest well," Guo Xuyang said and left the room.
Yu Er was being questioned by Ye Zi and Li Minxi in the living room.
"Yu Er, you are so beautiful. Where are you from?"
"Thank you, sister, for the compliment. I come from a faraway place, but I'm not quite sure of the specific location."
Yu Er's answer was quite skillful.
"How can you not know where you're from?"
"Well, it's been too long, I really can't remember."
"What are you guys doing? Interrogating a criminal?" Guo Xuyang came over and said.
"If you can't speak properly, then shut your mouth. What do you mean interrogating a criminal? We're just chatting," Li Minxi retorted.
"It's all your fault. I clearly heard you questioning Yu Er, alright?"
"You misheard. We're chatting, not questioning."
"Yu Er, come over, let's ignore them."
"Okay." Yu Er agreed and stood up.
"Mom, Dad, you can stay here after you come back. I have to go to the capital tomorrow."
Guo Xuyang said to his parents.
"Go ahead. You attend to your business, I'm here," Wu Shangqing said.
"Your father is also going back tomorrow. You can go back together in Xiao Hui's car."
"Dad, why don't you stay a couple more days? There's nothing much for you to go back for."
"The winter break is almost here, and there's a lot to do at school. Even if I'm not working, I still have to persist until the end of the month, right?" Guo Yiyu said.
"Should I have Yang Yang drive you back?"
"No need. Tomorrow your brother Hui is planning to drive two cars back, there should be enough space."
"Have you spoken to Brother Hui?"
"I've spoken to him. He said he'll be driving a minivan and an SUV back tomorrow, and they can take Xiao Li Niang's family back as well.
I can just catch a ride, saving you another trip."
"Alright then. You go back and quickly hand over your current work, try to finish everything before the end of the year. That way, you can rush back to celebrate the New Year."
"These things should be fine. It's just that it might affect my pension later."
"Dad, isn't what you and Mom earn enough for your pension? If not, I'll have Xiao Yun transfer more to you."
"It's just that I'm used to a life of hardship. We don't steal or cheat, it's what we should enjoy."
"Yes, you are absolutely right. Don't worry about that little pension.
Go back and complete the resignation procedures, and hurry back to wait for your big grandson." Guo Xuyang said with a smile.
"Are you sure it's a grandson? Did the doctor tell you?" Wu Shangqing asked.
"Mom, if he says it's a grandson, then it's a grandson. No doubt about it," Li Minxi said from the side.
"A grandson is good, a grandson is good. The eldest son and eldest grandson, generation after generation, it's passed down like this. This time, you've brought honor to your father."
"What are you talking about? What honor have I brought?" Guo Yiyu said.
"Isn't it? Our son had a child before Xiao Hui."
"What's wrong with being earlier or later? Don't mention these things in the future. Absolutely do not create conflict intentionally."
"I'm just saying it in our home, I haven't gone out and said it."
"Even at home, you should say less. Say fewer things that are not conducive to unity.
I think the relationship between Xiao Hui and Yangzi is quite good now.
Now that our two families are so close, we're getting closer and closer.
Those past matters are ancient history, we cannot do such things."
Guo Yiyu said a lot, and it was all reasonable.
"Alright, alright, you're right, I'll listen to you from now on," Wu Shangqing said and went upstairs angrily.
"Dad, Mom didn't mean it that way. Why did you say so much?" Guo Xuyang said.
"Interactions between relatives sometimes only take a word to cause the two families to never interact again.
Why was your uncle's family distant from us before? It's because your aunt sometimes spoke without thinking, which is why our relationship cooled.
It wasn't something I could have imagined that you and Xiao Hui would get along so well now.
Since we're together, we have to maintain this relationship and make it better and better.
We must not say anything that is not conducive to unity. Don't you think so?"
"You're right, Dad. I'll pay attention to this matter in the future."
"How long will you be in the capital this time?"
"It's not decided yet. I'll keep in touch with you all.
I've also told Elena that if she feels like she's about to give birth, she should call me in advance, and I'll try to rush back.
After you go back, please handle the handover as soon as possible and try to come back a few days earlier.
If I can't make it back, relying only on my mother and Elena, they might be quite strained."
"I understand this. I'll try to rush back," Guo Yiyu said.
"Yangzi, I'll go back with you," Li Minxi said.
"Okay. You'll have to go home to stay. The place I'm going is quite secluded, and they don't allow me to bring family."
"If I can't be with you, then what's the point of me going back? Then forget it. I'll stay here and accompany Mom and Elena."
"As you wish. The matters here are also finished. Tomorrow, I'll go back with Mr. Wu, Fatty, and the others."
"You guys go. I'll stay here honestly. Yangyang, you're not going with them, are you?"
"Yangzi didn't say I should go with him."
"That's good. At least I still have a playmate. We can go shopping together when we get back."
"Shopping again? You don't buy or sell anything, so what's the point of shopping? It's so tiring."
"You haven't experienced the true essence of shopping yet. Once you follow me and shop a few more times, you'll understand."
Li Minxi became eloquent when it came to talking about shopping.
Guo Xuyang didn't understand why these women had such an addiction to shopping.
