Gong Wenbai drove the car and smiled, “That popular? Then your aunt and I will have to come and take a look some other day.”
“Really, there are so many people. If they find out that Ji Zixuan is my big brother, will 1 still have a peaceful life in the future?”
There will be someone who wanted to send him a love letter and get to know Ji Zixuan through her…
In the second semester of high school, when everyone found out that she was
Ji Zixuan’s sister, many young ladies came to look for her.
Even when Ji Zixuan went to university, there were still a few persistent girls who did not give up.
Ji Yuanyuan had suffered enough and did not want to experience that kind of thing again.
Feeling a little uncomfortable, she quickly changed the topic, “Is Aunty home?”
Gong Wenbai replied, “She’s home. I’m picking you up today because 1 want to tell you some good news.”
“What good news?” Ji Zi’ang asked curiously.
“Let’s talk at dinner!” Gong Wenbai smiled.
No matter how much Ji Zi’ang asked, he refused to say anything.
The group quickly arrived at Li Miao and Gong Wenbai’s house.
There were a few exquisite plates on the dining table, filled with dishes.
It was obvious that they were ordered from a hotel outside. They looked very good.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Li Miao came out of the bedroom.
“You’re here. Are you hungry? Hurry up and wash your hands and go eat.” Li Miao urged.
Gong Wenbai went forward and held Li Miao’s wrist, “Have a seat first. I’ll take care of them.”
Looking at Gong Wenbai’s cautious appearance, Ji Yuanyuan already had a guess in her heart.
She quickly went forward and pulled out a chair, “Aunty, sit here.”
Li Miao sat down with a smile and urged, “Go and wash your hands. Although I didn’t make this personally, your uncle asked the five-star hotel to send it over. It tastes good.”
Ji Zi’ang was excited when he heard there was food and ran to the kitchen to wash his hands.
After everyone was seated, Gong Wenbai took out red wine, “There’s a joyous occasion today. Let’s drink some red wine.” Stay at home tonight and accompany your aunt for the next few days. She misses you guys. 1’11 send you back to school on Sunday night.”
Ji Zi’ang chuckled, “That’s great. We have food and drinks here. It’s much more comfortable than school.”
Gong Wenbai poured red wine for them one by one. When it was Li Miao’s turn, she only poured a gla.s.s of water.
“Aunt, what’s the good news?” Ji Zixuan asked softly.
Li Miao rubbed her stomach and smiled gently, “I’m pregnant. In eight months, you’ll have a younger brother or sister.”
“Really?” Ji Zi’ang widened his eyes and asked in surprise.
He liked children, and he liked Li Xiang and Li Nian when they were young.
When Li Jie was born, he was in high school and was quite busy. He didn’t go back to his hometown much, which was why he was a little rusty.
Li Miao nodded, “Yes, we went to the hospital for a check-up today. It’s confirmed.”
“Didn’t people say that it’s best not to tell anyone about it before three months old?” Ji Zi’ang was surprised again.
“Your uncle and 1 are not superst.i.tious people. We definitely have to share the good news with everyone.”
Ji Yuanyuan could understand her aunt and her husband. They must have been looking forward to the arrival of this child for a long time.
Her aunt was 28 years old this year, and her uncle was 34 years old.
In this day and age, it was already considered very late to have children at this age.
When her mother was thirty-four, her brother was already in his teens.
Moreover, her uncle-in-law’s relatives had basically pa.s.sed away. The only one left was his father, and he almost did not interact with him.
In this world, there was a child who was related to him by blood. That feeling should be very exciting, right?
As expected, Gong Wenbai was very excited. He drank two more gla.s.ses at the dining table and actually got drunk.
Fortunately, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang were both big boys, so they dragged him onto the bed and helped him wipe his face.
Ji Zixuan was very attentive. He was afraid Gong Wenbai would be drunk at night and no one would take care of him, so he took the initiative to share a room with Gong Wenbai.
Although Li Miao’s heart ached for Gong Wenbai, the child was still more important at this time.
She then moved into the guest bedroom and shared a room with Ji Yuanyuan.
The most comfortable one was Ji Zi’ang, who had the second bedroom to himself.
And it was the second bedroom with a computer.
However, Ji Zi’ang was chased out by Ji Yuanyuan the moment he entered.
Usually, there was no internet in school, so Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng could only contact each other through the phone.
Now that he finally had a computer, why didn’t Ji Yuanyuan take this opportunity to take a look at him?
It was already past eleven o’clock. Qin Mucheng usually had to go home for lunch, so he should be home by now.
Ji Yuanyuan logged into QQand sure enough, Qin Mucheng’s profile picture was lit up.
In order to make it easier for Ji Yuanyuan to contact him, the first thing he did when he got home was to log in to QQand log off when he went out.
So as long as his profile picture was lit up, it meant that he was at home.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly sent Qin Mucheng a video call invitation.
More than ten seconds later, Qin Mucheng’s handsome face appeared on the screen.
His mouth was still stuffed with food, like a cute hamster.
“Why are you still up so late?” Qin Mucheng swallowed his food and asked.
“He came to my aunt’s house. Everyone was happy and chatted for a while.”
“What’s wrong? Is there a happy occasion?” Qin Mucheng asked curiously.
“It’s my aunt. She’s pregnant.” Ji Yuanyuan shared the good news with him.
Qin Mucheng laughed when he heard that, “Uncle Xiao Gong must be very happy, right?”
“Yeah, he’s so happy that he’s drunk.”
Seeing that Ji Yuanyuan was happy, Qin Mucheng was naturally happy as well.
The two of them chatted happily in the room. Poor Ji Zi’ang curled up on the sofa, feeling extremely sleepy.
Fortunately, Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng did not chat for long before hanging up.
Ji Zi’ang entered the room impatiently.
After Ji Yuanyuan washed up, she went to Li Miao’s guest bedroom.
She was leaning against the headboard of the bed and reading a book about pregnancy.
After all, there was no elder by her side. Li Miao should still be very nervous, right?
Seeing Ji Yuanyuan enter, Li Miao quickly put down the book and instructed, “Turn off the lights and go to bed early.”
Ji Yuanyuan turned off the lights and went to bed.
“Aunty, what do you do now? Should we ask Grandma to come over? Or hire an auntie?” Ji Yuanyuan could not help but ask as she lay on the bed.
The early stages of pregnancy were still alright. Gong Wenbai could take care of her alone.
However, in the later stages of pregnancy, she might have to give birth at any time.
Moreover, after the child was born, both adults and children needed to be taken care of. Gong Wenbai definitely couldn’t do it alone.
He did not have any elders in his family, so they could only ask Grandmother to come over or hire a nanny for the two of them.
Li Miao was also in a difficult position. She sighed and said in a low voice, “Me and your Uncle only found out about the pregnancy today. We haven’t discussed it yet. I’ll call your grandmother tomorrow and ask if she can come.”
After a pause, Li Miao continued, “However, even if your grandmother can come, we still have to hire a nanny. Your grandmother is getting on in years, and I’m afraid her physical strength won’t be able to keep up and take care of the children..”
