After the separation, I took my whole family to eat delicious food and drink spicy

Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but smile when she saw Yun Che's excitement, and she also hugged Yun Che. Bai looked at the two people hugging each other, and the smile on her lips never faded.

"Xiaoxiao, since you are pregnant, you must listen to the doctor. You must take care of your body and get plenty of rest. Don't do those heavy work..." Mrs. Bai began to give numerous instructions.

“Yes, yes, Xiaoxiao, from now on you will be responsible for taking good care of the baby, and leave everything else to me…” Yun Che also spoke up from the side.

"Mom, Yun Che, it's not as serious as you say. Just pay attention to it in your daily life and exercise properly." Li Xiaoxiao disagreed with the ancient methods of nurturing the fetus.

"Xiaoxiao, just listen to your mother and take good care of the baby. This is your first child..." Mrs. Bai continued to ramble on and on, saying a lot of things to get Li Xiaoxiao's attention.

"Okay, Mom, I'll listen to you." Li Xiaoxiao shook her head helplessly.

Seeing that Li Xiaoxiao agreed, Mrs. Bai didn't say anything more. She told her to have a good rest and then went to get busy.

In rural areas, there is a custom of not telling anyone about pregnancy during the first three months, so the Bai family did not tell anyone about Li Xiaoxiao's pregnancy, not even Bai Dong and Bai Jing.

Ever since learning of Li Xiaoxiao's pregnancy, the Li family's rhythm of life has quietly shifted. Yun Che's care for Li Xiaoxiao has become increasingly meticulous, taking over as much as possible from her daily routine to ensure she doesn't tire herself out. Meanwhile, Mrs. Bai has been busy, fussing over Li Xiaoxiao's well-being while worrying about the potential harm to the fetus from excessive nourishment. Her care is truly consuming.

Although Li Xiaoxiao felt a little guilty, she felt she could still do what she could, but seeing Yun Che and Bai's nervous yet expectant expressions, she had no choice but to resign herself to the fact and take care of her pregnancy. Every day, she would walk around the yard, breathe in the fresh air, and do some simple stretching exercises to keep her body active.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, Li Xiaoxiao was already over three months pregnant. As the fetus grew, her belly gradually swelled, and her entire body radiated a maternal glow. Every time Yun Che saw Li Xiaoxiao caressing her belly with a gentle smile on her face, his heart was filled with an indescribable sense of happiness.

During this period, everyone knew that Li Xiaoxiao was pregnant. Wang, Wang Xiuqin, and Li Jia would often come to see Li Xiaoxiao. In order to make it easier to take care of her, Yun Che wrote a letter directly back to Beijing to tell Yun Muchen the news of Li Xiaoxiao's pregnancy. He said that he was afraid of the bumpy road and could only wait until Li Xiaoxiao gave birth to the baby safely before returning to Beijing. Yun Muchen agreed.

During this time, Yun Che had also quietly changed. He had become more calm and reserved, and his care for Li Xiaoxiao had become even more thoughtful. He began to learn how to better care for pregnant women, how to cook nutritious meals, and how to soothe Li Xiaoxiao's occasional mood swings. These changes brought Li Xiaoxiao a sense of immense peace of mind and happiness.

It was a sunny day, with a gentle breeze. Li Xiaoxiao, accompanied by Yun Che, took a stroll by the village river. The water was crystal clear, with a few small fish swimming happily. Standing by the river, Li Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the freshness and tranquility of nature.

"Yun Che, what do you think our child will look like?" Li Xiaoxiao suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, Yun Che's eyes gleamed with tenderness. He gently grasped Li Xiaoxiao's hand and whispered, "No matter what he looks like, he is the fruit of our love. We will love him and take good care of him."

After hearing this, the corners of Li Xiaoxiao's mouth curled up slightly. She felt Yun Che's determination and tenderness, and her heart was filled with sweetness and anticipation.

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps shattered the silence. Bai Dong hurried over, panting, and said, "Yun Che, something bad has happened in the village!"

Yun Che's expression changed when he heard this. He quickly calmed down and asked, "What happened?"

Bai Dong took a breath and said, "There's a fire at the old Zhao's house in the village. The fire is very big now, and everyone is busy putting it out!"

Yun Che's brows furrowed upon hearing this. He glanced at Li Xiaoxiao, his eyes filled with worry and reluctance. But as a responsible man, he knew he couldn't back down at this moment. So, he took a deep breath and said to Li Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, wait here for me. I'll be back soon."

Li Xiaoxiao looked at Yun Che's determined eyes. Although she felt a little worried, she nodded and said, "Yun Che, be careful."

Yun Che nodded, then turned and ran quickly towards the village.

Li Xiaoxiao stood by the river, watching Yun Che's receding figure, a mixture of emotions welling up in her heart. She was worried about the safety of the Zhao family, and also about Yun Che's safety. But she knew that at this moment, the only thing she could do was wait.

Waiting is always a long time. Li Xiaoxiao stood by the river, not knowing how long it had passed before she finally saw Yun Che running back exhausted. His face was covered in dust and sweat, but his eyes revealed a hint of relief.

“Xiaoxiao, the fire has been put out.” Yun Che said breathlessly.

Li Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. She looked at Yun Che's exhausted expression and said distressedly, "Yun Che, you've worked so hard."

Yun Che shook his head and said, "It's okay, just some minor injuries." As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing scars that were blackened by the fireworks.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at the scars, tears welling up in her eyes. She hugged Yun Che tightly and said, "Yun Che, thank you, thank you for everything you have done for me and for this family."

Yun Che felt Li Xiaoxiao's warm embrace, his heart filled with happiness and satisfaction. He gently patted Li Xiaoxiao's back and said, "Xiaoxiao, you are my wife, the treasure of our family. I should do anything for you."

The two hugged each other by the river for a long time before slowly returning home.
