With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

The bedding in the luxury hotel was the most comfortable, and the Shen family all had a good night's sleep.

At 7:30 a.m., Shen Mingming, who was still fast asleep, was shaken awake by his wife.

"Stop making noise, what are you doing not sleeping at this hour?" Shen Mingming mumbled sleepily, then turned over and tried to go back to sleep.

"It's almost eight in the morning, and these curtains are really blocking out the light. I was so full when I opened my eyes that I thought it was the middle of the night." Wang Chunyan said as she pressed the electric switch on the curtains. As the curtains in the room slowly opened, the morning sunlight of Longcheng poured in, instantly illuminating the room.

She shook the unresponsive Shen Mingming and urged, "Get up, let's go downstairs to the restaurant for breakfast. Da Bao checked and said the hotel breakfast is quite expensive, it would be a waste not to go if it's free."

"Oh dear, look at your petty bourgeois attitude." Shen Mingming opened her eyes helplessly and sat up. "I drank so much last night, can't you let me sleep a little longer? If you want to eat, take the kids with you."

Mentioning last night, Wang Chunyan was both angry and amused when she thought of Shen Mingming's drunken behavior: "You still have the nerve to mention last night? You were drunk and wouldn't let go of Jiang Yuanliang, shouting and talking nonsense. I should have taken a picture of you."

"Really?"

Shen Mingming jolted awake and instantly woke up.

"Of course! We couldn't stop you, Da Bao and I had to drag you back."

Shen Mingming slapped her forehead in frustration: "I really have a bit of a memory lapse. Is he angry?"

"No, he seemed quite happy. He chatted with you a lot, but I doubt you remember." Wang Chunyan said, getting out of bed and going to the children's room next door to call Xiaobao: "Get up and wash up quickly, let's go downstairs for dinner."

Shen Mingming turned around, took out her phone from under her pillow, and checked it. She found that she had also added Jiang Yuanliang on WeChat, and there were many photos of them with their arms around each other in the album.

He picked out two good-looking photos and posted them on his WeChat Moments, with the caption: "Met my brother-in-law for the first time last night. We had a lot of conversation and I benefited greatly. I feel very honored and happy / thumbs up."

Jiang Yuanliang's name was not mentioned at all, because there was no need to mention it as others would recognize him.

This is what it means to want to show off while pretending to be low-key.

When the family went downstairs to the restaurant, they found that the old lady had already been taken there by Shen Chengcheng.

Having lived here for a while, Shen Chengcheng knew everything best, especially what was good and bad for breakfast. He ran around preparing a lot of breakfasts for the old lady, making her happy first thing in the morning.

"Mom, my older brother and the others are here."

Upon seeing Shen Mingming's family, Shen Chengcheng quickly stood up and waved, "Big Brother!"

Approaching them, Shen Chengcheng looked at them eagerly and said, "The weather is nice today, and the temperature is just right. After breakfast, I'll take you to climb the Great Wall."

Shen Mingming frowned: "Judging from your attitude, you're acting like you're the host? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were from Longcheng."

Shen Chengcheng was initially excited, but his older brother was so unappreciative that his face darkened. He retorted unhappily, "Of course I know better than you. Do you know how to get to the Great Wall?"

"We're here for a wedding, not for a vacation," Shen Mingming said. "If all you do is have fun, what will the Jiang family think of us?"

“My brother-in-law said we don’t need to help with the wedding. Why are you worrying about it? They hired a professional team for the wedding. Even if you wanted to help, would you be able to do it properly?”

Seeing that the two brothers were about to start arguing again, the old lady quickly spoke up: "Alright, what's there to argue about? No wonder Jingjing doesn't let you stay at home. I woke up this morning and all I heard was you two arguing about this little thing. Doesn't it annoy you?"

She looked at Shen Mingming and said, "If you don't want to go, then you don't have to. The children finally have a holiday and they definitely want to have some fun. Chunyan and I will take the children."

Shen Mingming was speechless. It wasn't that he didn't want to go, but he wanted to find more opportunities to get to know his sister and brother-in-law, and more importantly, Jiang Yuanliang.

Shen Chengcheng knew exactly what his older brother was thinking, and couldn't help but sneer: "Don't always try to be so attentive. Too much of a good thing is just annoying."

Having her thoughts exposed, Shen Mingming glared fiercely at her younger brother.

The old lady clicked her tongue and warned, "Shut up, all of you. You can argue all you want in private, but you're not allowed to argue in front of Jingjing. She's pregnant now, and especially don't argue in front of Yuanliang. What kind of scene would that be!"

The old lady may not even realize it herself, but she is now starting to consider her daughter's needs more.

Shen Jingjing also got up early and practiced yoga suitable for pregnancy by the French windows in the living room for a while, facing the sunlight.

"Jingjing, dinner's ready."

The nanny, Sister Liu, prepared breakfast before calling for someone. Shen Jingjing wiped the sweat from her forehead and shoulders with a hot towel, then got up and walked to the dining table.

Today's breakfast consisted of a bowl of steamed egg, half an apple, and two walnuts.

"I have black chicken soup simmering in my clay pot. I can have a bowl of it as a snack two or three hours after breakfast," Sister Liu said.

Shen Jingjing nodded, then glanced at the stairs: "They're still not up?"

"I saw that Xingxing and Xiaomin went out early this morning. Aci and Ali should still be sleeping. I'll make wontons for them when they wake up."

Shen Jingjing waved her hand while eating her steamed egg custard, and after swallowing the food, she said, "Don't bother your sister Liu. You're here to serve me, not to be our housekeeper. You don't need to worry about anything else."

"It's alright, it's just a small thing. You're in the early stages of pregnancy, so there's not much I can do to help anyway." As she spoke, Sister Liu looked at Shen Jingjing with curiosity and asked, "I've been observing you these past few days and you don't seem to be experiencing any discomfort. Do you feel any physical reaction?"

Shen Jingjing shook her head, finding it strange herself: "I didn't feel any particularly obvious reaction. Logically speaking, shouldn't I be experiencing more severe reactions at my age? Why don't I feel anything at all? Is it too early?"

Aunt Liu, being experienced, said softly, "It does have something to do with when it's early or late, but more importantly, it depends on individual constitution. Everyone's condition after becoming pregnant is different. Some people may have milder reactions in the early stages and more severe reactions later, while others may have the opposite. You don't need to worry too much about it."

Shen Jingjing was still concerned. She had already given birth to two children and knew what pregnancy was like. Whether it was Aci or Xingxing, she had severe reactions in the early stages, vomiting every day and unable to eat anything.

"Could the hospital have made a mistake in the examination?" Shen Jingjing blurted out.
