The little drama queen is both capricious and naughty, but her military officer husband insists on s

After educating her two daughters, Su Xiufen returned to her hospital room.

Lu Yanxun had also finished eating.

She tidied up the used dishes and chopsticks, preparing to go home.

"Xiaozao, I'm going home now. Yanxun will stay and take care of you. If you need anything, just tell him. If he dares not do what you say, I'll deal with him when I come tomorrow."

Jiang Zao gladly accepted her mother-in-law's instructions.

"it is good."

Before leaving, Su Xiufen called Lu Yanxun out, as if she had something to tell him.

The mother and her three children stopped when they were some distance from the ward door.

"Brother, do you find that dish sour?"

Before she could even stand still, Lu Yanting couldn't wait to ask Lu Yanxun.

His tone was still a little excited.

"Sour." Lu Yanxun said calmly.

"How can you eat so much when it's sour? There's still leftover steamed egg with ginger and dates in your bowl," Lu Yanting blurted out. "Don't you also dislike steamed eggs?"

"Brother, you must be really hungry, right? Then why did you say you weren't hungry at first? Were you just saying that because you were worried there wouldn't be enough ginger and dates to eat?"

Lu Yanting then threw out a whole bunch of questions.

Lu Yanxun fell silent after being questioned.

He didn't reply for a long time.

Su Xiufen lightly slapped Lu Yanting on the forehead: "That's your sister-in-law! You're not allowed to call her by her full name anymore!"

Lu Yanting covered her forehead: "Can't I even call from behind?"

"No."

Lu Yanting felt a little wronged: "But you never said anything to me when I called her by her full name behind her back before."

“The past is the past. From today onwards, you are not allowed to call your sister-in-law by her full name behind her back.” Su Xiufen’s tone left no room for negotiation.

As for why.

Of course, it's because Su Xiufen was terrified of Jiang Zao's antics.

This was just a false alarm; who knows if next time it might really result in the deaths of three lives?

If Su Xiufen had previously only fulfilled her basic obligation to provide Jiang Zao with three meals a day, then...

Now, she really wishes she could worship ginger and jujubes every day.

I only pray that my two children can be born smoothly and safely.

"Fine, I won't shout then." Lu Yanting bit her lip, feeling wronged.

But soon, she stubbornly pressed on with the same question she had just asked.

"Brother, you still haven't answered me. Were you just saying that because you were worried there wouldn't be enough food for your wife?"

"No," Lu Yanxun replied, "I'm really not hungry."

Lu Yanxun didn't expect his younger sister to have such a strange idea, and her answer was the truth.

Not getting a satisfactory answer, Lu Yanting looked at Lu Yanxun suspiciously: "If you're not hungry, why are you eating so much?"

“You ate all of the ginger and jujubes… oh no, I mean, your sister-in-law’s leftovers.”

Lu Yanting misused the form of address and immediately corrected herself.

Lu Yanxun frowned.

I didn't immediately understand what the younger sister meant or what she was trying to express.

Su Xiufen's face darkened.

He smacked his youngest daughter on the head again: "Your brother and sister-in-law are husband and wife. What's wrong with him eating your sister-in-law's leftovers? If your sister-in-law can't finish them, does that mean your brother should throw them away?!"

Lu Yanting hid behind Lu Yanwei: "I was just curious, Mom, why did you hit me?"

"What are you doing, a little girl of ten or so, being so curious about adult matters all the time?" Su Xiufen said irritably. "If I don't hit you, you'll never know what nonsense you'll spout!"

"I'm not making this up. My sister said that my brother and sister-in-law have a very good relationship, and I'm just checking it out. I want to know if it's true that my brother ate all of my sister-in-law's leftovers."

Lu Yanwei was afraid that the war would spread to her and cause her to be beaten as well.

He kept shaking his head.

"I didn't say that, I didn't say that, it's none of my business!"

Having already been beaten twice, Lu Yanting was unwilling to be beaten alone.

Sisters should share both good times and bad.

They were both hit and suffered the same fate.

Without hesitation, he dragged Lu Yanwei into the mess: "It was you who said it, sis! How could you do this? You won't even admit what you said."

Lu Yanxun's face also darkened.

Because he understood.

"Mom, take them back."

Lu Yanxun ignored their argument.

Hearing her son speak, Su Xiufen remembered why she had called him out.

"Yanxun, Mom has something else to tell you."

"You two go downstairs and wait for me," Su Xiufen said, sending her daughters away.

"I want, too……"

As soon as Lu Yanting said she wanted to hear it too, Lu Yanwei dragged her towards the stairwell.

"You want to get beaten up again? Let's go!"

After watching her two daughters go downstairs, Su Xiufen continued speaking to Lu Yanxun:

“Yanxun, Mom knows you’re unwilling, but the child is already so grown up. No matter how unwilling you are, you have to give in for the sake of the child.”

Lu Yanxun frowned but remained silent.

Su Xiufen added, "I think she seems much more restrained today than before. Maybe it's because you're back. Spend more time with her in the future, and try your best to do whatever she asks for. Don't upset her."

Lu Yanxun frowned even more deeply.

Still no words.

Seeing that her son remained silent, Su Xiufen assumed he didn't want to listen to her and couldn't help but feel anxious.

Left with no other choice, I had to speak in a commanding tone:

“For the sake of the child, you have to do it even if you don’t want to. This is also your father’s idea. Today your father told me that your grandparents will be coming over in a few days. This time they plan to stay permanently. I heard they came specifically to help take care of your child. I don’t care what you think, but neither Jiangzao nor the child can be allowed to have any mishaps!”

"I understand," Lu Yanxun replied without any emotion.

Su Xiufen softened her tone: "It's good that you know. Go back quickly, don't keep her waiting. When she gets out of bed later, support her waist more."

Lu Yanxun paused for a moment, then hummed in agreement.

"You need to protect your belly too," Su Xiufen added.

"Ah."

"Oh, by the way, Mom was just about to ask you something. When I came over tonight, I noticed your hands..."

Su Xiufen stopped there and didn't continue.

Lu Yanxun said casually, "She had a stomachache, and the doctor taught me how to relieve her pain."

Su Xiufen nodded with some satisfaction:

"Yes, when I was pregnant with you, my belly would sometimes hurt, and your dad would massage it like this for me. It was quite effective. Every time he massaged it, you would become well-behaved."

"Mom, you should go back." Lu Yanxun seemed reluctant to discuss the topic further and urged his mother to leave.

Su Xiufen understood.

He left without saying anything more.

Jiang Zao waited and waited in the ward, but Lu Yanxun never returned.

She had originally planned not to wait any longer and wanted to get out of bed and move around by herself.

Seeing her enormous belly, she ultimately gave up the idea of ​​getting out of bed.

As a first-time pregnant woman in her late pregnancy, she felt it was better not to overexert herself.

Health and children come first.

Jiang Zao could only wait anxiously for Lu Yanxun.

She fell asleep before anyone returned.

When Lu Yanxun returned to the ward, Jiang Zao was already fast asleep.

She lay curled up on her side, her head tilted against the headboard, and she was snoring softly.

Judging from Jiang Zao's sleeping posture, she was sitting up on the bed before falling asleep.

She probably fell asleep while waiting for him, and her upper body couldn't support her, so she slumped against the headboard.
