Xue Ling drove early in the morning and felt sleepy soon after lunch, so he quickly went to bed and took a long nap.
Before going to bed, she told Cheng Tianyuan and Ahu, who were drinking tea and chatting outside, that if Wang Qing came, they would take her into the room to find her.
When I woke up, it was already past four o'clock.
"Wang Qing... didn't she come?"
Cheng Tianyuan handed her a big cotton-padded jacket and said warmly: "No, Ahu took his parents, Xiao Ranran, and his mother to the development zone together. Chen Min and Cuiliu's sister-in-law made barbecue and invited everyone to go there in the evening.
Eat. If you don’t like the smell of meat, I’ll stay and have dinner with you.”
Xue Ling lazily hid in his arms and rubbed his neck.
"My husband is the best!"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled fondly, touched her back and patted her gently.
"There will still be a chance to eat barbecue later. I'll take you with me, because I'm afraid you'll always be nauseous and won't be able to eat it. I'm also worried that you won't know what to eat by yourself, so why don't I stay and eat with you."
Xue Ling couldn't help but mutter: "Why am I listening...it feels like I have become a burden to you!"
"Yes!" Cheng Tianyuan looked at her with a faint smile, and whispered: "You are my burden, my sweetest burden."
A person who rarely spoke sweet words suddenly said such an exciting word, which completely confused Xue Ling and turned to giggle.
She hugged his neck and said coquettishly: "No matter! Anyway, whether it is a burden or a burden, you have to bear it for the rest of your life! Don't shirk it!"
"Yes, yes!" Cheng Tianyuan wrapped her in a large cotton-padded jacket and said warmly: "It's cold outside, don't catch a cold."
Xue Ling looked at the time and said, "It's not too late. I'll go to Boss Liao's company."
If you agree to help him run the company, you must keep your word. The future of both of them is tightly tied to the second phase of the project, and she cannot just watch her partner get into trouble.
Once he falls into the quagmire, it will naturally not be easy for her. Everyone cooperates in business and has common interests. Everyone will be prosperous and everyone will suffer.
He was too busy right now to care about anything else, so she could only help as much as possible.
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you waiting for Wang Qing?"
"No wait." Xue Ling explained: "She may be busy with something and can't come at the moment. You stay at home and I'll come as soon as I go. If she comes, you can leave her behind and let her come tonight."
Let's eat together here. If you explain to her that no one else is here and it's just the three of us, she will probably stay and eat."
If it's a big family, it might be awkward and embarrassing for her to come over.
Cheng Tianyuan nodded and said warmly: "Then be careful and drink some warm water before going out."
"Okay." Xue Ling quickly got out of bed and wrapped herself in a cotton-padded jacket.
After a while, she hurried out.
She went straight to Boss Liao's company, which was still as deserted as before, with only his cousin there.
Xue Ling said: "It's the end of the year, and the company's employees haven't been paid yet. Regardless of whether they will stay here to continue working, we must not default on their wages. Contact your secretary and ask everyone to come over tomorrow to collect their wages and go back to celebrate the New Year.
I'll bring the money over at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Hey! Okay, okay!"
Xue Ling only had 10,000 yuan left with him. Afraid that he would not have enough money tomorrow, he went to the bank again and withdrew 20,000 yuan.
The bank was already getting ready to get off work, but the employee saw that she was an acquaintance, so he still enthusiastically handled it for her.
Then she took the money and went home.
When I got home, the lights were on, but Cheng Tianyuan was the only one cleaning the room. Wang Qing still hadn't come.
Xue Ling thought of her pale face the day before yesterday and couldn't help but feel worried.
"When I finish my work tomorrow morning, I will go find her in the afternoon."
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "It's almost the New Year, so she must be busy preparing for the New Year! It's the end of the year, and everyone is busy."
Xue Lingteng remembered it and couldn't help but ask: "It's already twenty-six today, right? By the way, when did my parents say they would arrive? I seem to have forgotten to ask them the specific day they would arrive here..."
"I asked." Cheng Tianyuan replied: "I called my parents in the afternoon when you were taking a nap. They said it was a ticket for the morning the day after tomorrow, and I would arrive in the provincial capital around three in the afternoon."
Xue Ling nodded, "Please remember it for me! My head always feels like paste now, and I'm confused."
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but tease: "Really? How much money do you have left with you now? You haven't forgotten it, right?"
"Pfft!"
Cheng Tianyuan gave her a doting look and said, "That's good. By the way, Ahu is going to the provincial capital with me the day after tomorrow. He is going to drive Chen Lan to buy a radio. Then we will go together and come back separately."
"Let's drive a car!" Xue Ling said: "Our jeep is big anyway, one person can be in the front, and three people in the back are more than enough. The luggage can be put in the trunk. Anyway, it doesn't take much time to buy a radio."
Cheng Tianyuan said: "I said the same thing earlier. But Ahu said that he and Chen Lan would go shopping elsewhere. The little girl had never been to a provincial capital before and was so excited that she wanted to buy this and that.
. He also wanted to buy some New Year’s goods to give away during the New Year, so he didn’t want to go with me. I had to wait at the airport to pick him up, so I couldn’t go shopping with them.”
"Okay then." Xue Ling gently stroked his belly and whispered: "I can't run around now, so I can only ask you to pick up my parents."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Cheng Tianyuan raised his chin slightly and asked, "Are you hungry? I stewed some rice noodles, added some chili peppers and some sauerkraut."
Yesterday when she was in the provincial capital, she ate a lot of spicy hot pot and her appetite seemed to be very good.
Eat less spicy food at home. If she likes spicy food, then he will prepare more spicy dishes for her in the future.
"Okay!" Xue Ling smelled the smell of pickled cabbage, swallowed hard and said, "I'm hungry! Let's eat quickly!"
She ate two large bowls in one go, which made Cheng Tianyuan feel secretly happy, "Daughter-in-law, do you want more?"
"No." Xue Ling shook his head and replied, "I'm quite full."
Cheng Tianyuan secretly felt that she might have passed the reaction period and her appetite had finally returned. Unexpectedly, before she could be happy, Xue Ling went to the bathroom again and vomited half an hour later, vomiting out everything.
Cheng Tianyuan felt heartbroken and poured a glass of warm water for her.
"Rinse your mouth and bear with it."
Xue Ling pressed his chest in discomfort and smiled bitterly.
"It's a rare meal...I dedicated it to the bathroom!"
Cheng Tianyuan nodded seriously, rarely making a joke.
"You have to contribute tomorrow anyway, there's not much difference between doing it earlier or later."
"Pfft!" Xue Ling laughed.
Cheng Tianyuan helped her lie down on the bed and said, "I'm going to boil some hot water. When you come back later, you can wash your feet and take a bath. I'll wait, and I'll help you wipe your body and wash your feet later."
"Well..." Xue Ling hid in the bed and fell asleep.
She thought she was just squinting for a while, but she was prone to drowsiness during pregnancy, so she slept until dawn. She didn't wake up until her son softly shouted "Mom! Mom!" beside her.
"Ah?" She looked out the bright window with sleepy eyes and asked blankly: "What time is it? What time is it?"
Xiao Ranran climbed onto the bed and plunged into her arms.
She hugged him quickly.
Cheng Tianyuan quickly stepped in and fished him out quickly, "Don't hit mom, be careful!"
Xue Ling yawned and asked, "How late is it?"
"It's almost nine o'clock." Cheng Tianyuan replied.
Xue Ling vaguely remembered that she had something to do today, so she hurriedly opened the bed and got out of bed...
