In Pei Mubai's eyes, hundreds of thousands or millions may be small numbers, but to her, they are a huge favor.
Pei Mubai's mother always said that their family was trying to hold Pei Mubai back, and Pei Mubai had really helped a lot in the past few years. Now that the company is operating normally, there is no need to cause trouble to Pei Mubai.
Pei Mubai took Su Yuxi to the imported supermarket to buy a lot of fresh and expensive fruits.
Su Yuxi's father liked antiques, so Pei Mubai took Su Yuxi to the antique market to buy a painting.
Then I went to buy supplements for Su Yuxi's mother. After all, it was hundreds of thousands.
"Xixi, do you have any gifts you want?" Pei Mubai asked her.
Su Yuxi shook her head: "I don't lack anything."
"Then put this on." Pei Mubai didn't know when he bought a string of jade beads and put it on her hand.
"Xixi, this is something that Master Huiyi has blessed. It can calm your mind and keep you safe."
Su Yuxi didn't believe this, but she couldn't live up to Pei Mubai's wishes, so she put it on.
Pei Mubai came across this string of Buddhist beads by chance at an auction. The beads were very beautiful and seemed to have spirituality, so Pei Mubai took the photo.
Xixi's wrists are very white and look particularly good when she wears them.
"Brother, don't I have a gift?" Pei Jingyu asked, blinking.
"Of course, why do we miss Jingyu?" Pei Mubai touched her head, his eyes filled with adoration.
The gift given to Jingyu was a singing snowman, and Jingyu was very happy.
"Thank you, brother, thank you Xixi." Pei Jingyu's world is always so simple.
"Jingyu, Xixi is my brother's wife, you have to call me sister-in-law, you can't be older or younger, you know?"
"But, I'm used to it."
"It's okay Jingyu, just call me by my name. I'm not used to you calling me sister-in-law."
The three of them got into the car chatting and laughing.
"Xixi, please sit in front. My brother said that his co-pilot's seat is your exclusive seat, and I can't even sit in it." Pei Jingyu said with a smile.
"Did your brother really say that?" Su Yuxi smiled softly and turned to look at Pei Mubai.
Pei Mubai responded tenderly: "As long as you are happy."
Su Yuxi's parents knew that they were coming back today, so they started preparing early and prepared a lot of delicious food.
"Uncle and aunt, I'm here to eat too." Pei Jingyu greeted Su Jingyang and Zhou Minjun with a smile.
"Jingyu, you're here. Sit down quickly. I haven't seen you for a long time. Auntie misses you so much."
"Mu Bai, come on if you want. Why do you bring so many things?"
"Mom, this is the supplement Mubai bought for you; Dad, this is the gift Mubai chose for you."
"You guys are interested. Sit down first. Jingyang, you can pour them tea. My kitchen is still on fire. Xixi can't drink tea because she's pregnant. Just pour her some boiled water."
"Don't bother Dad, we can drink it ourselves."
The lunch was very sumptuous. Considering that Xixi was a pregnant woman, there were no messy condiments. It was all original, but very delicious.
Su Yuxi's appetite was better than last month. The hospital called her and told her that in half a month, she would be able to go for a prenatal check-up.
Pei Mubai hadn't come to his parents' house for dinner in a long time, so they simply stayed for dinner before going back.
After returning, Pei Mubai called Xu Qing and said that they would go back for dinner tomorrow and Xixi would also come over.
After Xu Qing answered the phone, he immediately called Fang Shiyu.
"Shiyu, are you free tomorrow? Come to our house for dinner? Mu Bai will be back tomorrow too."
"Well, I'm free auntie, but my legs are inconvenient and I'm afraid I might cause trouble to you."
"Shiyu, in Auntie's eyes, you are just like my daughter, why are you in trouble?"
"Auntie, I don't want to be your daughter, I want to be your daughter-in-law." Fang Shiyu said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, if you marry into our family in the future, I will definitely treat you as my own daughter."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Qing's eyes flashed with deep meaning. Su Yuxi is coming over tomorrow. Su Yuxi didn't come over on her birthday, so why should she let her in?
Su Yuxi was also very nervous. Who knows what will happen when they meet tomorrow?
"Xixi, don't worry, I'm here." Pei Mubai seemed to see through her thoughts and comforted her.
"Pei Mubai, your mother will never like me, she only likes Fang Shiyu."
"Xixi, the person who will spend the rest of my life with me is you, not my mother. It doesn't matter whether she likes it or not, as long as I like it."
"But she is your mother, and you have to take care of her emotions."
"Xixi, I already take good care of her emotions. Even if she is my mother, I will not allow her to hurt you."
"Mubai, thank you."
"Thank you. We are husband and wife. Let's go to sleep."
"Um."
At night, Su Yuxi had another nightmare. This time, she dreamed that she was pushed down the stairs by Pei Mubai's mother, and the child in her belly was gone.
She kept screaming and shouting in her dream, but she couldn't make a sound. The ground was covered with blood, and Su Yuxi was frightened and woke up.
"What's wrong Xixi?" Pei Mubai was also frightened and woke up by her.
"I, I had a nightmare." Su Yuxi got into Pei Mubai's arms. Fortunately, it was just a dream.
"Don't be afraid Xixi, I'm here, I've always been here." Pei Mubai patted her back gently and took out a wet tissue to wipe her face.
Under Pei Mubai's comfort, Su Yuxi slowly fell asleep. She didn't sleep very peacefully all night.
Su Yuxi didn't wake up in the morning, and Pei Mubai didn't wake her up either.
"What's wrong with Xixi?" The old lady couldn't help but ask while eating breakfast.
"She had a nightmare last night and just slept for a while when it was almost dawn."
"This child just doesn't feel safe. Mu Bai, you didn't give her enough sense of security."
Pei Mubai nodded: "Well, I will pay more attention to her in the future."
"Mu Bai, your mother doesn't like her, are you sure you want to take her back for dinner? She is pregnant now, you must take good care of her, right?"
"Yes, I know grandma."
Su Yuxi didn't wake up until ten o'clock. When she woke up, Pei Jingyu was sitting beside her bed and smiled at her.
"Xixi, you finally woke up."
"Jingyu, where is your brother?"
"My brother is making wontons in the kitchen. This is the first time I see him cooking."
Su Yuxi quickly got up, brushed her teeth and washed herself.
In the kitchen downstairs, Pei Mubai was wearing an apron and looking presentable making wontons for Su Yuxi.
"Mu Bai, you have become a lot more sensible recently, and you know you care about your wife." The old lady was also very pleased.
"Xixi is a picky eater when she's pregnant. I think she still likes to eat wontons. I made them for her last time at home."
"It's good to know how to care about your wife. When I was pregnant with your father, your grandfather was the same way. He was meticulous and his craftsmanship was better than those of the chefs."
