Hu Chunli chimed in, “This name was calculated by a master after he asked about our birth characters. He said it’s to bring us good fortune.”
Ji Ziang covered his forehead speechlessly, “Mom, Auntie Hu, I think when the two of you get old, I can’t let the two of you have too much money in your hands, you’re too gullible.”
“How can you say that?” Li Xu slapped his head and lectured him.
“Jincheng, Jincheng, it means a bright future, right? It was such a simple sentence, but it still cost a thousand yuan! Which fraud did this? I’ll go find them!” Ji Zi’ang scratched his head, still a little angry.
One thousand yuan was equivalent to two months’ salary for an ordinary person!
This huckster really dared to take it!
“Alright, alright. It’s the new year. Maybe the price of this name is really different. When your mother becomes rich, we can just think about enjoying ourselves.” Zhang Kun reached out and touched the spot on Ji Zi’ang’s head where he had been hit earlier as he comforted him.
Ji Zi’ang looked helpless, but he could only let it go.
The business license had already been approved. They couldn’t possibly change it again, right?
On New Year’s Day, Li Xu and Zhang Kun brought the children back to their hometown.
Li Miao and Gong Wenbai were getting married in two days. As her sister, she had been busy these days and had not been of much help.
It wasn’t easy for him to have free time, so she had to help out.
Li Miao was still in school. She was usually quite busy with her classes. She didn’t want to take leave, so the wedding date was set for the winter vacation.
Gong Wenbai didn’t have many friends in his hometown and B City, so the wedding was held in S City.
“There’s nothing to be busy with. In our situation, we can skip the parts that should be omitted. No matter how complicated or grand it is, won’t it still return to normal in the end?” Li Miao was open-minded.
Gong Wenbai and his father’s relationship had always been like enemies, so he didn’t tell his father about his marriage.
The groom’s parents couldn’t come to the wedding, so they had to skip some parts.
“It’s just that you’ve suffered a little. A woman only wears a wedding dress once in her life…” Qin Xiaomin sighed.
After dinner, the women gathered in the west room, the men gathered in the east room, and the children ran back and forth. The house was very lively.
“Hey, why are you feeling wronged? As long as he treats me well in the future, why do 1 care about these superficial things?” Li Miao smiled.
Meng Xiaoning leaned against the wall, protecting her stomach, and asked, “Then don’t you and Xiao Gong plan to have children in the next few years? You’re still in school. No one will look after the child when it’s born, right?”
Li Miao said in a low voice, “We plan to have the baby in two years. We’ll talk about it when 1 get back to work. Both of us are quite busy now. We really don’t have the energy.”
Meng Xiaoning listened and laughed again, “However, you can’t be sure about the child. Who knows when it will come!”
Qin Xiaomin nudged her with her elbow, Our Miaomiao is still a girl. Why are you saying this?”
Li Miao’s face was a little red.
Meng Xiaoning looked at it and laughed, “She won’t be in a few days. We’re only a few days away, right?”
As she spoke, Li Xu thought of the child in Meng Xiaoning’s stomach, “Your due date is around the eighth day of the first month, right?”
Meng Xiaoning nodded, “At that time, it was around the eighth day of the lunar new year. But it’s hard to say for sure. Who knows when I’ll give birth?”
“This child’s birthday is very important. It’s the first year of his life,” Li Xu smiled.
“Next year, will be the year of the monkey. This year, is the year of sheep.” Li Miao counted.
Meng Xiaoning sighed, “I hope that this child won’t be born before the New Year. He can’t be born in the year of the sheep!”
Li Miao was a little puzzled.
Meng Xiaoning laughed, “Xiangxiang was born in the year of the tiger. A sheep will enter the tiger’s mouth. If the second child is born in the year of the sheep, won’t they only be bullied by their sister in the future?”
Qin Xiaomin teased her, “This second child hasn’t even been born yet, and you’re already biased? If you think that Xiangxiang is bullying your second child, you might as well give Xiangxiang for us to raise.”
“Is that what I mean?” Meng Xiaoning quickly asked. “Think about it. She’s my daughter. Can I…”
Meng Xiaoning stopped mid-sentence and stared blankly at Qin Xiaomin.
“What’s wrong?” Qin Xiaomin didn’t react.
Li Xu reacted quickly and quickly pushed Qin Xiaomin aside, “Is your stomach hurting?”
Meng Xiaoning lowered her head and looked at her lower body.
A warm current slowly flowed out, following his pants and dripping onto the ground.
Li Xu quickly got off the bed and instructed Li Miao, “Hurry up and get someone to drive. Your Sister-in-law is about to give birth.”
Li Miao was so scared she quickly jumped off the brick bed. She did not even put on her shoes properly and dragged herself outside, “Hurry up and get the car. My Sister-in-law is about to give birth.”
Li Lei immediately sat up from the sofa.
He ran to the west room in a few steps and looked at Meng Xiaoning at a loss, “How are you?”
“Don’t just stand there,” Li Xu hurriedly said. “Is everything ready?”
“Yes.” Li Lei nodded. “It’s all ready. It’s at home.”
“Your Brother-in-law will drive. We’ll go to the hospital first. Hurry up and go back to bring your things to follow us.”
Li Lei was also obedient. After Li Xu gave her instructions, he immediately turned around and walked out.
Meng Xiaoning wanted to say something, but she didn’t manage to do so.
Li Xu and Qin Xiaomin supported Meng Xiaoning to the outside.
Zhang Kun had already driven the car over. The two of them helped Meng Xiaoning into the car.
Seeing so many people standing at the door, Li Xu rubbed his head with a headache.
Then, she arranged things methodically, “Xiaomin, follow us in the car. When Xiao Yong comes over later, pull him along. Don’t forget to take some money. I’m afraid your Eldest Brother will forget it because he’s nervous.”
Li Xu did not have much money on her, so she could only let Li Yong bring it along.
“Dad, Mom, don’t go back and forth. Stay with Miaomiao and take good care of the children. Also, Xiao Gong, please stay here tonight. I’m not at ease with only the children and the elderly left at home.”
“Sis, don’t worry. I’ll take care of the house.” Gong Wenbai nodded.
When Ji Zi’ang heard this, he whispered to Ji Zixuan, “What does she mean by only children and the elderly? We’re already so old. What’s there to be worried about?”
Ji Zixuan ignored him.
After everything was arranged, Li Xu was about to get into the car.
Li Xiang was still young. Seeing Meng Xiaoning sitting in the car with a pained expression, she was so scared that she cried, “Mommy…”
Li Miao hugged her while Ji Yuanyuan coaxed her from the side, but she could not coax her no matter what.
Meng Xiaoning poked her head out of the car and comforted the child, “Xiangxiang, be good. Mommy will go for something. Tomorrow, when you wake up, Auntyl will bring you to see Mommy, okay?”
Only then did Li Xiang stop crying.
Li Xu and Qin Xiaomin supported Meng Xiaoning from both sides, and Zhang
Kun’s car quickly sped out..
