back. I quickly reached out and hugged it.To be honest, it's heavier than a baby!Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes, watching it bury its head in the crook of his arm, hiding. He sneered, reaching out and..."As for that, I must admit defeat. You understand, you truly understand." I conceded with a nod of respect.

My father glared at me fiercely, carefully rolling up the pink girlish heart talisman and putting it back in his cigarette case.

I'm too lazy to investigate the root of this issue. Maybe my old man just has a special fondness for these pink charms I'll check at the ghost market next time and see which shop sells such unusual charms.

As dawn approached, I returned home. Entering the yard through the side gate, I didn't hear Old Wu's cat, Ling, give its usual "alarm." This made me wonder.

That cat is always alert and doesn't sleep much. It will meow whenever someone enters or leaves the house, acting as an alarm. Today, why is it so quiet

Dad followed me, closing the door as he asked, "What are you just standing there for"

The cat spirit didn't call.

"Uh" Old Man was taken aback for a moment, then reacted to what it meant.

He stepped forward a few steps with a serious expression, walked through the small courtyard to the back door of the shop, and placed his hand on the doorknob, ready to open it.

I drew my sword and prepared myself. The moment he pulled open the door, I charged in —

The big cat had been sprawled on the counter, lazily lifting its head to glance at me before burying itself again and continuing to “sleep”.

"Damn! Little brat, don't scare me like that!"

It was actually this little lynx that came, no wonder the cat spirit was scared and hid back in the old woman's room, too afraid to make a sound.

"What Is Xiao Nie back Did Little Qiao come back too" Dad hurried in to ask, "Has You Nan returned as well"

"Hmm... Upstairs, probably still asleep." Xiao Nie squinted and yawned.

I reached out and rubbed its head, and it was too lazy to struggle.

When it first came to my house, it was very proud. After a long time, it's no different from a domestic cat.

Father wanted to go upstairs to check on Xiao Qiao and You Nan, but he was afraid of disturbing their sleep. He paced back and forth at the top of the stairs for a long time, his eyes fixed on the floor above.

"… First, take a shower. Are you planning on holding Younan back home without showering Go lie down for a bit. Xiao Qiao will definitely cook for you after she wakes up, and there's plenty of time for you to look after the children." I pushed him back into the room.

I went back to my own room and saw Qin'er holding my blanket and sleeping.

To prevent me from sleeping too restlessly and grabbing the blanket, we each sleep in our own beds.

Two people sharing a blanket will always have gaps, and it's easy to get cold at night. Now she's a precious giant panda with such a big belly, I can't help but care for her.

When I'm not around, Qinyaya curls up my blanket like a spring roll and sleeps with it.

I bent down and looked at her, poking her cheek: "Still pretending Not even a bit."

"Pff... Hey, where do I look like I'm not [doing something] Why can you tell" Qin Yao sat up against the headboard.

I yawned and walked into the bathroom, not bothering to close the door, just pulled the curtain and took a cold shower.

"You wouldn't lie to me, would you Pretending in front of me is pointless. I still don't know what kind of person you are...I guess you just stay up all night when I'm not home." I said to the outside.

"Well, I just couldn't stay awake anymore. I fell asleep, and then I heard noise upstairs. I knew Qiaoqiao was back, so I went up to take a look. Qiaoqiao wouldn't let me hold the baby..." She puffed out her cheeks in annoyance.

"Why"

She said my belly was too big, that she was worried the baby would kick me around without any care… How much strength could a little baby possibly have to kick me She's being way too anxious.

Everyone around us, except for Qin's own head, was very nervous.

My mother-in-law often has to accompany my father-in-law to official events and can't take care of her daughter herself. She calls almost every day, and after she finishes talking to Qinyaya, she hands the phone to me.

They keep telling me the same old warnings, I'm fed up with it.

"Xiao Qiao is right, we are all nervous! Only you act so carefree and have no sense of being a mother..."

After I finished my shower, when I came out, um Qin YATou was gone.

Below, the sound of a door pushing open came from the courtyard. I pushed open the window and saw that the girl had already gone towards the kitchen.

Oh oh oh…

How badly does she want to experience the "ordinary" life of cooking, eating, and living

I leaned against the window, arms crossed, watching her. As if sensing me, she turned her head and smiled at me.

Ah, she truly is a unique young lady.

People who receive their education abroad often have different views on marriage.

Now, some women domestically view marriage as a competition, forgetting that the essence of two people being together is love.

Love I never thought I'd hear myself say that word.

Xia Qiao brought Xiao Nie back. I felt safe at home. After driving all night, I was a little tired. I pulled the blanket over myself and lay down.

I slept until noon, just in time for lunch.

Xiao Qiao came back just to serve us dinner, and at a glance, I saw that Old Chen had run two trips to the market. I knew today we were in for a treat.

The old man downstairs only opened one door to his shop and pulled the security gate shut. He laid out a thick mat on the floor and scattered a huge pile of toys for You Nan and Yu Gui to play with.

This old man has a lovestruck expression on his face, calling out "my dear, my darling."

Qin Yazi knew that she was just in the way in the kitchen, so she moved a stool to sit by the kitchen door and chatted with Xiao Qiao.

"Lan Xi Her name sounds just like the orchid, ever graceful and unchanging. Her heart is as steadfast as an orchid… What a beautiful name." Qin giggled.

Xia Qiao's voice came from the kitchen: "So, have you and my brother thought of a name for the baby"

"Yun Fan said if it's a boy, he'll be called 'Dà Máo', and if it's a girl, she'll be called 'Dà Niū'," Qìnyā replied with a giggle.

Boom.

I heard the dull thud of a cleaver chopping on a cutting board.

"No, Xiao Qiao listen to me explain, this is just my nickname, isn't a nickname so cute" I hurriedly shouted inside.

Xiao Qiao gave me a cold glance, lowered her head and continued to cut things, while not forgetting to threaten me: "Mu Yunfan, if you dare to name my nieces and nephews so casually, I'll beat you!"

"Since Xiao Qiao became a mother, she's been very fierce."

Before, she just pouted and wouldn't cook for me. Now... I'm truly afraid she'll beat me up.

"Brother, where did you go and come back with such a gloomy air..." Xiao Qiao pouted.

"Huh"

You definitely haven't taken an ayu bath, you lazy bum!

Alas, she is now residing in that blessed haven atop Mount Nan, spending her days raising children and studying ancient texts. She has made remarkable progress!

"Driving all night was too tiring, I didn't even have time to take a bath. I could fall asleep in the bathtub."

Xiaoqiao looked at me with some pity in her eyes. Before, she used to run around with me everywhere. Now that she has a child, she doesn't have time to accompany me anymore.

But I also take on fewer jobs now, after all, it's not easy to launder money, and I'm too lazy to contact those people in this line of work again.

"By the way, Yunfan, how did things go yesterday You came back just before dawn, so did you manage to handle it" Qin'er asked with some worry.

After all, the matter also stemmed from issues with her relatives' family, and she was worried about them in her heart.

But I don't really want to tell her, it's not finished yet. Telling her might just worry her, so why bother

Qin'er pursed her lips and whispered, "I'm not trying to cause trouble for you, I just want to know if you're in danger..."

Xiao Qiao stared at me, as if I had bullied Qin.

Facing these two women, I'm really becoming more and more powerless.y useful..."Should I trust him... Just squeeze out a little more blood, it probably won't be a big deal. This guy really seems like a "monster." If he's conscious, maybe I could escape with his help....
