"Mom, I'll go home for lunch on Saturday and tell you about my job change."
"I asked you to come back today and explain clearly. What do you mean by delaying it until Saturday? And you are not at home all day long. I came to your door several times without seeing you. Where have you been?" Xue Sumei said angrily.
"I've been very busy recently. I have to work and study at the same time. I'll explain the details to you on Saturday." Yang Tao was slightly impatient.
"What evil have I done to give birth to a dead girl like you? If you don't explain everything clearly today, don't even think about sleeping." Xue Sumei roared on the phone.
Yang Tao took the phone farther away, not wanting his eardrums to be blown out.
"Mom, my boyfriend will come back with me on Saturday." Yang Tao said into the phone from a distance.
The phone suddenly went quiet. There was no sound for a long time. Yang Tao thought the phone was disconnected.
"Mother?"
"Is he coming to visit officially?" Xue Sumei asked after a long time.
"Yes." Yang Tao said bravely.
"Okay, I understand." Xue Sumei was so calm that it was scary.
"Let's call my sister and brother-in-law home on Saturday! We all know each other anyway," Yang Tao said.
"Okay, you don't need to worry about this kind of thing." Xue Sumei asked in a deep voice: "Tell me honestly if you have it."
Star Tao didn't understand what "had" meant at first, and it took a few seconds for him to realize.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Yang Tao said embarrassedly, "I'm not pregnant."
Xue Sumei asked strangely: "You are not pregnant, why is he in such a hurry to propose marriage?"
"It's not a marriage proposal." Yang Tao said, his head getting bigger, "It's just a formal visit. Weren't we in a hurry last time?"
Xue Sumei sighed and said, "You're really not pregnant?"
Yang Tao's head was full of black lines and he said: "Why am I still a little disappointed when I hear what you mean?"
Xue Sumei said calmly: "Don't be poor. I'll cook whatever your boyfriend likes to eat on Saturday. He's sensible, so we can't be rude."
"Just do whatever you want. He's not picky about food and will eat anything."
Xue Sumei suddenly asked: "Have you stayed at his house?"
Star Tao was surprised and said: "No!"
"I'm not an old antique, just pay attention to yourself. If you don't say anything, I have to call your sister."
Yang Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly as he listened to the busy tone on the phone. Having a smart mother is really not a happy thing.
After putting away the phone, Yang Tao suddenly counted the days with his fingers.
"I seem to have been delayed for four or five days this month. I won't really be pregnant, right?"
The more I thought about it, the more wrong it became. Star Tao immediately sat up from the sofa, found the calendar, and calculated the date. It was really five days late.
She has always been very accurate.
The most important thing is that when she was with Wang Gang during this period, she was in a mood and did not use contraception.
Starfruit threw away the calendar and hurried out to the drugstore to buy pregnancy test sticks. She was afraid that they would be inaccurate, so she bought three types of different brands.
After returning home, she couldn't wait to rush into the toilet and came out ten minutes later with a confused look on her face and three pregnancy test sticks.
"Am I pregnant or not?" Yang Tao looked at the three pregnancy test sticks arranged neatly in front of her and was confused for a moment.
There are three pregnancy test sticks, one shows one bar, one shows two bars, and the third one also has two bars, but the lower bar is very faint and can hardly be seen clearly.
I originally bought three sticks just to be on the safe side, but I got three different results, and my pretty star fruit face was all confused.
"How about going to the hospital for a checkup?"
Yang Tao couldn't make up his mind. He picked up the phone several times and wanted to call Wang Gang, but finally gave up.
In the end, Yang Tao made up his mind and called Wang Gang.
After Wang Gang learned about Yang Tao's troubles, he was stunned at first, but he didn't panic.
"If you are worried, I will take you to the hospital for examination immediately." Wang Gang suggested.
"Otherwise, we should wait a few days. Maybe something will happen to me in two days." Yang Tao said anxiously.
"It's better to go to the hospital! Seek peace of mind."
Although Wang Gang felt that it was impossible for Yang Tao to be pregnant, he decided to go to the hospital for a blood test.
After several lifetimes of reincarnation, Wang Gang has never had a good relationship with his children. If he doesn't work hard for a few years every time he gets married, his wife will never get pregnant.
Wang Gang felt that Yang Tao was just a false alarm, and the result was the same.
As soon as Yang Tao arrived at the hospital, she turned away with a blush and went straight to the toilet. After coming out, she took Wang Gang and went home.
Her period is coming.
After all the trouble, Yang Tao was still a little embarrassed when he saw Wang Gang.
On the contrary, Wang Gang felt that Yang Tao was slightly looking forward to the pregnancy?
Time passed by, and on Saturday, Wang Gang returned home early in the morning with gifts and star fruits.
When Xue Sumei saw Wang Gang, she deliberately made a face and elevated herself to look like her future mother-in-law.
"Auntie, these are the nutritional and health products I bought for you, as well as a gift from Brother Duan and Sister Su."
Wang Gang was holding something in both hands, full of sincerity.
"And our gifts?" Su Qing said in surprise with a big belly.
"I knew Sister Su was about to give birth, so I bought some imported milk powder and some children's clothes." Wang Gang put the things on the ground and said.
"You are interested." Su Qing said with a cheerful smile.
Duan Xifeng's smile was a little unnatural. It wasn't that he was unhappy, but that his face was injured and it hurt when he smiled.
Wang Gang saw Duan Xifeng's injury and didn't ask any questions.
"Come in! Don't stand at the door." Xue Sumei asked Yang Tao to get a pair of slippers for Wang Gang.
After Wang Gang entered the room, several people sat on the sofa. You looked at me, I looked at you, and they started chatting awkwardly.
"Xiao Feng, how is the gym's business lately?"
"It's okay. Recently, a lot of people focus on exercise to lose weight."
"What's wrong with my brother-in-law's face?"
"He! He didn't pay attention after get off work and fell by himself."
A few people chatted one after another, but Xue Sumei finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Yang Tao: "What's going on with your work? I went to the hotel to find you a few days ago, and they said you resigned?"
Just as Yang Tao was about to explain, Wang Gang held her hand and said, "Auntie, it's like this. Yang Tao was not happy in his original hotel and wanted to change his job. Now he works in a bridal shop."
Xue Sumei's face fell as soon as she heard about the bridal shop.
"Are you still talking about your unrealistic ideals?!" Xue Sumei said angrily.
"Mom, why are my ideals so unrealistic?" Yang Tao said unconvinced.
Wang Gang quickly stopped Yang Tao and said, "Auntie, I actually quite agree with Tao Zi's pursuit of her dream. The wedding industry is very good now. More and more people choose to customize wedding dresses. I am very optimistic about this industry."
"Really?" Xue Sumei frowned.
"I'm also planning to wait until Tao Zi has experience to open our own bridal shop, specializing in weddings. The store is ready-made, right next to my gym, and the house is my own." Wang Gang said.
"Ah! You still have this plan, why didn't you tell me?" Yang Tao said in surprise.
"These are just some of my thoughts. I originally wanted to wait until you graduated from the design school before telling me." Wang Gang said softly.
Xue Sumei's face looks much better.
In fact, she was not opposed to Yang Tao pursuing his ideals, but she felt that she only started to change careers in her thirties, and her future was worrying.
But seeing that Wang Gang was so supportive and even planned to open a bridal shop, she didn't want to object.
As the saying goes, this time, that time.
In the past, when Yang Tao pursued ideals, it was called unrealistic. Now that Wang Gang is here, it is called a dream come true.
The difference is that Wang Gang is rich!
As long as they have money, anyone can pursue their ideals and there is no need to worry about daily necessities, and Xue Sumei is too lazy to be a bad person.
"Since you two have plans, I won't say anything else." Xue Sumei asked, "When do you plan to get married?"
"Mom, we are not in a hurry." Yang Tao said shyly.
"What's not urgent?" Xue Sumei said angrily: "How old are you? Do you really want to wait until you are thirty-five and become an advanced maternal age?"
Wang Gang stood in front of Yang Tao again and said, "We have already made plans about the marriage and are going to ask my aunt and uncle for their opinions in two days."
Xue Sumei nodded and said with satisfaction: "Xiaofeng is still sensible."
Su Qing smiled and said: "Everyone, stop sitting and eat quickly! In order to entertain Xiaofeng, my aunt went to the vegetable market early in the morning to buy vegetables and has been busy all morning."
"Xiaofeng, would you like to drink?" Duan Xifeng said with a smile.
"Drink something with Brother Duan."
"Oh, I can no longer call me brother Duan, I have to call me brother-in-law!" Duan Xifeng joked.
After we talked the matter out, the atmosphere at home immediately improved a lot.
Yang Tao took Wang Gang to the restaurant. As expected, Xue Sumei cooked a table of dishes. Although they were all home-cooked dishes, it was clear that she had put a lot of thought into them.
Everyone chatted while eating.
"Xiao Feng, I think you and Tao Zi can get their certificates first when they have time. Just ask Guo Ran. He works at the Civil Affairs Bureau, which is also convenient." Duan Xifeng started to speak a little erratically after drinking some wine.
Wang Gang glanced at Xue Sumei and knew that Duan Xifeng's words should have been instructed by Xue Sumei.
