Chapter 704: Chapter 701: The Joy that Twins Bring to the Elderly (1)
Lu Xiao and Wen Xian took a flight overnight to get there.
Once in Beijing, Lu Xiao felt somewhat relieved.
After all, Wen Xian was pregnant, and now she definitely needed to take good care of herself, and returning to Beijing was the most suitable choice.
Before they got home, Lu Xiao had phoned his parents in advance, telling them they were coming back.
But he did not mention Wen Xian’s pregnancy, after all, he had previously told his parents about the possibility of Wen Xian being pregnant.
Lu Xiao’s father and mother, upon knowing the couple was returning, were overjoyed.
Especially Lu Xiao’s mother, who immediately started to make arrangements with the housekeeper to prepare a big table of dishes, looking forward to it immensely.
Upon learning the news, Lu Xiao’s father, though he didn’t say much, cancelled his plans with friends to go bird-walking, playing chess, and put off fishing for another day.
Lu Xiao’s mother even called Little Zaijun and asked her to come home for dinner that day.
Although it wasn’t the weekend, she was basically finished with her courses and thus had more freedom to come back.
However, when Li Zaijun heard the call, her heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
Her sister-in-law and brother were coming back; there was nothing wrong with that, but if her brother found out about her and someone…
Li Zaijun tensed up all over in an instant.
Everything will be fine.
At noon, Lu Xiao and Wen Xian entered the house; Lu Xiao’s mother was smiling warmly, taking Wen Xian’s hand, “You two are finally back. We’ve cleaned up your room; go rest first.”
As she said this, she also asked Wen Xian:
“Was the trip tiring? Did everything go smoothly?”
Wen Xian hugged Lu Xiao’s mother and said with a smile, “Not tiring at all, everything went very smoothly.”
Some things, of course, were not convenient to let the elders know.
As Wen Xian and Lu Xiao’s mother went inside, Lu Xiao followed with the luggage, completely ignored as if he was invisible.
But fortunately, Captain Lu had always been a quiet person since childhood and didn’t care much about it.
They took a shower and went to rest after coming back, especially Wen Xian, who slept deeply after bathing, undisturbed by thunder, seeming truly exhausted. Being pregnant, Lu Xiao didn’t say anything, but he felt very distressed inside.
After Wen Xian fell asleep, he went to see his parents.
He greeted his father and then went to the kitchen.
Lu Xiao’s mother and the housekeeper were preparing a feast in the kitchen. After Lu Xiao arrived, seeing the array of dishes being prepared, he fell silent for a moment, then said,
“Mom, she needs to be nourished right now, to consume more nutrients, make some dishes more suitable for pregnant women.”
His mother and Aunt Zhang from home were experienced, they definitely knew more about this than he did.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao’s mother was slightly taken aback, pausing her action of deveining shrimp, and asked with some surprise,
“What, is Xiaoxian too tired lately, feeling unwell?”
Preparing nutritious dishes was definitely fine, but she felt her son wouldn’t say such things without a good reason.
So she was a bit worried about whether Wen Xian was feeling uncomfortable somewhere.
What was it that he said… was it not clear enough?
He paused in his tone, then gently added, “No, just make something that’s good for pregnant women’s health.”
The moment he said this, Lu Xiao’s mother was stunned.
Food for… pregnant women’s health…?
She… didn’t misunderstand, right?
Preparing whatever was fine, but his words reminded her of before—
