Chapter 941: Chapter 941: Generational Difference Chapter 941: Chapter 941: Generational Difference Ning Lingyu laughed, “Yesterday morning I waited for you all morning, and after lunch Jiaming came to find me, and we went out to play together. Knowing you would come today, Jiaming went to pick me up early in the morning.”
At this moment, Xu Yuqing came over with her two-year-old son, “Jiale, call her sister.”
Yuan Jiale grinned, “Sister, happy New Year.”
Luo Qiao took out a red envelope from her pocket, “Jiale, happy New Year, this is a red envelope from your sister. Keep it safe, okay?”
Little Jiale chuckled and took it, “Thank you, sister, wishing you prosperity.”
Luo Qiao laughed heartily, “Our little Jiale is really great.”
Xu Yuqing watched her son with a smile, “He kept asking when his sister would come?”
Yuan Jiale suddenly became shy, burying his face in his mom’s neck.
Luo Qiao patted his head and laughed, “Jiale, that’s not your sister, that’s your little niece.”
Yuan Jianing came over holding Yanyan, “Jiale, come and see your little niece, and stop calling her sister all the time. You’ve got the generations mixed up.”
Little Jiale was displeased, “She is a sister, she is a sister.”
Everyone in the room laughed, and Old Master Yuan pampered his grandson, “Alright, Jianing, stop teasing Lele, careful or he won’t be fond of you anymore.”
Yuan Jianing joked in front of Jiale, “Okay, I won’t say it anymore; call her whatever you want, and when you grow up, I’ll settle this old score with you.”
Eldest Auntie Song Huizhen came over, “Qiaoqiao, go upstairs and help your eldest sister-in-law take her pulse; she’s due just in a few days.”
Luo Qiao followed upstairs, entering Eldest Yuan Jiahui’s room, where her sister-in-law was watering a pot of Glass Sedge. Hearing someone enter, she looked up.
Luo Qiao called out, “Eldest sister-in-law.”
Lv Yanyang turned around, “Qiaoqiao, I heard you guys arrived, but mom wouldn’t let me come downstairs.”
Luo Qiao approached, “You’re close to your due date, you should be careful.”
Lv Yanyang laughed, “Being alone up here, I just get to listen to you all having fun.”
Luo Qiao smiled and motioned for her to extend her hand, “Let me take your pulse.”
Lv Yanyang stretched out her hand, “I don’t know which day it will start. These past few days, I’ve been so nervous at every little rustle.”
Luo Qiao finished taking her pulse, “Lie down, let me feel your belly.”
As Luo Qiao examined her, she gently used her Special Ability to adjust her body, ensuring her safety during childbirth. “Eldest auntie, sister-in-law, the baby has already moved down, and it looks like it’ll be these next few days. It’s necessary to move around a bit, as it helps with childbirth.”
Lv Yanyang looked at Song Huizhen, “Mom, let me go downstairs then.”
Song Huizhen finally gave in to her eldest daughter-in-law’s pleading gaze, “Alright, alright, go ahead, but you must be careful all the time. Jiahui isn’t here, and I can’t stop worrying, who am I doing this for?”
Lv Yanyang stuck out her tongue and held onto her mother-in-law’s arm, “Mom, I know you’re looking out for me, I just feel too bored being alone.”
Luo Qiao asked, “When will Big Brother be back?”
Lv Yanyang’s face brightened with a smile, “He said as soon as there’s any sign, he’ll be notified, and he’ll have more time to stay with me during the confinement period.”
Coming back from the military base would take roughly an hour, and including the time for transferring vehicles, it would probably take over two hours to get to the hospital, which was about right since the labor for a first pregnancy is generally long.
Downstairs, Old Master Yuan was holding the ginseng wine they brought, cheerfully saying, “I’ll taste a little at noon.”
Eldest Yuan Weizhou joked, trying to make a deal, “Dad, it’s the New Year, let us taste some too.”
Old Master Yuan clutched the little porcelain jar tight. “No negotiation on this; you still want to fight me for such a little jar.”
Yuan Weizhou admitted defeat and looked towards Yuan Weihan.
Yuan Weihan shook his head; he did not want to rush in now only to be scolded. He would wait for the meal table, then he’d have a chance.
Luo Qiao had just come downstairs when her second sister-in-law Meng Dongyao came out of the kitchen, holding two plates of washed fruit: “Qiaoqiao, come and have some fruit.”
Luo Qiao went over to take the plates from her hands and smiled, “Second sister-in-law, you should be careful now that you’re pregnant.”
Tiong Shulan also hurried over, “You child, how did you end up in the kitchen again? You need to take care of yourself now, with so many people in the house.”
