Han Jingheng didn’t feel awkward at all. With a chuckle, he said to his wife, "Aihong, quick, help boil a pot of water. I’ll make some tea and let you try it in a bit."
Putting the tea bag under his nose: "The green tea you gave last time, I shouldn’t have brought it to work, you have no idea...."
Before he could finish his sentence, Su Aihong interrupted him, "Alright, don’t say it out loud, lest you get laughed at."
He cleared his throat and realized he was indeed foolish. He initially intended to show it off at work, but didn’t expect that once he took it out, it would be divided up by others.
He really regretted it endlessly.
Han Jingheng didn’t get angry, and cheerfully went inside to grab a teapot: "This time I won’t be so silly. This is my niece’s gift to me, and I’m keeping it for myself."
Xinyan suddenly remembered the medicinal wine she prepared, and pulled it out from her backpack: "Uncle, I consulted with my teacher and made some medicinal wine. I brought you a bottle. Have a small drink every day, it’s good for your knee joints."
This moved Han Jingheng and his wife so much that Su Aihong exclaimed, "Daughters are the best, they’re so considerate."
Han Jingheng agreed, "Indeed, I now also have a little cotton-padded jacket."
Han Jingchen rolled his eyes at his own Big Brother and couldn’t be bothered to argue with him.
Everyone chatted and laughed in the courtyard, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.
Before long, Big Brother Han Chaoyang and Sister-in-law Wu Shengfang returned as well, carrying some fruits in their hands.
After greeting everyone, Han Chaoyang happily announced some good news: "Dad, Mom, Second Uncle, Yanyan, Shengfang is pregnant."
Everyone’s eyes lit up all of a sudden and they spoke in unison, "Really?"
Wu Shengfang shyly said, "Yes."
Su Aihong quickly took a few steps forward and held Wu Shengfang’s hands: "How long has it been? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
Wu Shengfang blushed and said softly, "Over forty days, apart from some dry heaving in the mornings, I’ve been okay otherwise."
Su Aihong quickly guided her to sit on the sofa in the living room: "Sit down quickly. Let me know what you want to eat, and I’ll make it for you."
Initially, Wu Shengfang felt a bit embarrassed and hesitated for a while before saying, "Mom, I want to eat sour soup noodles."
Su Aihong clapped her hands, "Alright, just wait, I’ll make it for you now."
Xinyan took out three tangerines from her bag and handed them to her sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, I have a few tangerines in my bag for you to eat."
Wu Shengfang originally wanted to decline, but seeing the juicy tangerines, she couldn’t help but start salivating. She felt really embarrassed and looked up at Han Chaoyang, who was standing not far away.
Seeing her like that, Han Chaoyang couldn’t help but laugh, walked over, took the tangerines from Xinyan’s hand, and placed them in hers, "They’re not from someone else, so there’s no need to be polite with Yanyan."
Then, standing up, he smiled at Yanyan, "Your sister-in-law has a foodie in her belly, craving every day."
At this, Wu Shengfang blushed even more. Such words implied it was herself who was craving, not the baby in her belly.
Xinyan laughed, "Sister-in-law, it’s like this during pregnancy, it’s a reaction you shouldn’t feel embarrassed about."
Han Chaoyang squatted down, "Did you hear that, Yanyan is learning medicine under Mr. Du. She says it’s a pregnancy reaction, so there’s nothing to be embarrassed about. Just tell me what you want to eat, even if we don’t have it, I’ll find a way to get it for you."
Hearing this, Wu Shengfang felt a sweet sense of joy, her face completely flushed.
