"Your son is quite clever too, with his intelligence." Yang Chuxia laughed and said to Chen Sheng, "Cousin-in-law, you can’t walk away now. Yazhu will have dinner at my house."
Chen Sheng awkwardly glared at his son, who stuck out his tongue, making Chen Sheng laugh and cry at the same time.
Yang Ruoqiu looked at his son with affection, and was quite satisfied with his mischievousness. Old people say that children are very smart.
"Today we will also eat at Xiaxia’s house with Yazhu, you can go back first to clean up and come back later." Yang Ruoqiu’s relationship with Yang Chuxia in the past two years has been quite good, and they have become more comfortable with each other.
With Dachuan also saying they were all sisters, there was no need to be polite for just a meal, Chen Sheng thanked them with a smile and went home first. After changing into clean clothes, he came back.
The mothers prepared the lunch for the guests, and Li’s mother led people to prepare meals for the workers building the house, while Li’s wife prepared meals for the family.
Yang Chuxia and her party chatted in the living room.
Chen Yazhu seemed to like being with Yang Chuxia. Seeing her sitting there, he followed and offered her some snacks, shouting, "Baby eat, little sister eat." While talking, he also pointed to Yang Chuxia’s stomach.
At first, Ms. Wang thought it was just a child’s words, but after hearing it several times, she started to feel a bit hopeful. People say that children’s eyes are the brightest and can often see things that adults can’t.
She suggested to Yang Chuxia, "Xiaxia, do you want to ask Uncle Cai to take a look?"
"What?" Yang Chuxia hadn’t even reacted.
"Ask Uncle Cai to check your pulse and see if you’re pregnant." Ms. Wang’s face was full of anticipation, "I used to hear your grandma say that children have the best eyes and can even tell if a baby is a boy or a girl."
"Really, Mom? Where did you hear these random rumors?"
Ms. Wang grumbled, "How is this a random rumor? Your grandma’s family had a child with incredibly keen eyes. When your grandma was pregnant with your eldest uncle, that child pointed to your grandma and said it was a little brother. Later, your grandma gave birth, and it turned out to be a boy. When your grandma was pregnant for the second time, she went to find that child again. The boy said it was a little brother. Afterwards even went and bought a basket of eggs and two pounds of brown sugar to give to that child."
"Is there really such a magical thing? Are you sure that the child wasn’t deliberately taught by his parents to say it’s a little brother?" Yang Chuxia couldn’t help but ask.
"How could it be? Your grandma told me this."
Yang Ruoqiu listened and couldn’t help feeling a bit embarrassed. This story didn’t seem to be like what her aunt said.
"Mom, how old was the child when he helped Grandma see?"
"Let me think, probably around five or six years old."
Yang Chuxia pointed to Chen Yazhu and said, "Mom, look at him, he’s still learning to talk, and probably can’t even tell the difference between men and women yet. And how big was Grandma’s belly then? And how big am I now?"
Ms. Wang felt a bit sheepish when she heard this. At that time, her mother was already seven months pregnant. And her son-in-law had returned from the prefecture for just over half a month. She seemed to be a little too anxious.
But Chen Yazhu still held the snack, pointing to Yang Chuxia and shouting, "Baby eat, little sister eat."
Yang Ruoqiu stepped forward to take him and said apologetically and with a blushing face, "Auntie, I guess you might be really wrong about this. It’s all Chen Sheng’s fault that he kept telling Yazhu about having a little sister. Just last month, he told him that there was a baby sister in my belly. I didn’t expect him to remember it until now and think that Xiaxia also had a baby in her belly."
