After settling down, Cheng Muhai took his son and said he was going to the hospital to see Dad Xue.
"Ever since he was injured, I haven't been able to sleep well every night. We have known each other for many years and we are in-laws, so I treat them as a family. If something happens to him, I will always feel panicked and worried."
Cheng Tianyuan understood his father's worries and said warmly: "Dad, please wait a minute. After a few masters installed the fans, each room still needs to be cleaned. In the kitchen, I still have to teach mom how to do it."
"Hurry up, hurry up!" Cheng Muhai urged: "Afang, come here quickly! Help clean up, hurry up!"
Cheng Tianfang had just finished cleaning the big room, and Liu Ying took Xiao Ranran in to sleep.
"Last night in the hotel, the little guy had a very uneasy sleep. He got up early this morning and had to drive and catch a flight for a long time. He must be exhausted. Look, he fell asleep after drinking water."
Cheng Tianfang smiled bitterly: "The food on the plane tastes really bad! He didn't eat much either. I was just thinking about going to the kitchen to cook something!"
"No." Liu Ying explained: "The briquettes were just burning, and your brother just used the kerosene stove to boil the water. Your brother bought some cakes in the kitchen yesterday. You go and get some to pad your stomach first. Xiao Ranran let him sleep first.
"The child is sleepy, so sleeping more is better than eating."
Cheng Tianfang heard her father's cry and quickly went out to help.
It took more than an hour to install the fan before it was finally installed.
Cheng Muhai couldn't help but whisper: "Why do you even install it in the living room? The living room is so big, it's not necessary, right? How cool can it be if it's turned on? It's probably a waste of money."
Cheng Tianfang muttered: "Dad, please be quiet! This is arranged by my sister-in-law, so we will just obey silently. The summer in the Imperial Capital is also quite hot, and our whole family will live here, so it can be cooler if possible. In addition,
, Uncle Xue still has to recuperate from his injury, and he needs to cool down a bit. If it is too hot and stuffy, it will not be good for the wound, and it will easily become inflamed."
"Yeah." Cheng Muhai nodded.
Cheng Tianfang lowered his voice: "Dad, we are guests, we can't make too many decisions."
"Yeah." Cheng Muhai nodded again, feeling that his daughter was right.
Cheng Tianyuan took the mop to clean the room and shouted: "Afang, you go to the remaining two rooms to sweep away the dust and mud. I will mop the floor and try to improve the hygiene as soon as possible."
Cheng Muhai couldn't help but ask again: "Can we go? It seems to be almost evening!"
"Not yet." Cheng Tianyuan explained: "It's only about four o'clock. When the briquettes in the kitchen are all burning, mom will go to the kitchen to cook a few bowls of noodles, and then go to the hospital after eating. Xiao Ranran is not awake yet, so someone has to watch over her.
He can do it."
"That's right." Cheng Muhai nodded.
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside!
Cheng Tianfang hurriedly opened the door and shouted excitedly: "Sister-in-law! Are you here? Oh! I haven't seen you for half a year, your belly is so big! It's pointy, it should be a boy!"
Xue Ling held her hand and looked up and down; "Afang is getting more and more beautiful. She was almost unrecognizable just now. She is whiter and slimmer than during the Chinese New Year! This skirt is very beautiful and fashionable."
Cheng Tianfang pursed her lips and smiled shyly, explaining: "This is the new model sold in the store this year. Brother Ahu gave me one, and I also helped him pick two sets for Sister Wang Qing!"
Xue Ling clicked her tongue a few times and said: "It's true that women have changed at the age of 18. They are almost the same in half a year. From now on, you can go home when you have time during the semester, don't always wait until the winter and summer vacations."
"We don't have a holiday!" Cheng Tianfang explained: "We only have one and a half days on the weekend, and we have to travel for a whole day to go back and forth. There is not enough time at all. I envy my classmates in provincial cities every day, they can go home once a week - it's great! Sister-in-law
, I am already nineteen this year.”
"Isn't it false?" Xue Ling said: "The real age is eighteen, I remember it clearly."
"A little over eighteen." Cheng Tianfang replied with a smile.
Xue Ling teased: "When you were young, you wished you could grow up faster and wish you were older. When you are over thirty, you will be reluctant to talk about your age anymore and wish you could rush to a negative number."
Cheng Tianfang laughed heartily.
The aunt and sister-in-law walked in while chatting.
Xue Ling saw Cheng Muhai and quickly shouted: "Dad!"
Cheng Muhai, who was helping to sweep the floor, hurriedly raised his head and smiled.
"Ling, are you back? Ah Fang, help your sister-in-law sit down quickly, she can't stand for too long."
Xue Ling stopped and said with a smile: "It's okay, I've been in good spirits these past two days. Ah Fang, these are the dumplings I bought nearby. They're still warm. Go to the kitchen to get a plate and chopsticks to share with your parents.
eat."
"That's great!" Cheng Tianfang laughed: "I'm almost starving to death! Sister-in-law, your dumplings came just in time!"
Xue Ling explained: "There is nothing delicious to eat on a plane. It took several hours to make it together. How could I not be hungry? I estimated the time and hurriedly took the car from the hospital. These dumplings were bought at the gate of the community. Everyone in the capital loves them.
There are so many roadside stalls and noodle shops for pasta, you can eat it anytime of the day.”
Cheng Tianfang quickly poured the dumplings onto the plate and called her parents to eat together.
Liu Ying saw Xue Ling and came over with a happy smile.
"Ling, it looks fine. Ayuan called home the day before yesterday, but it shocked us!"
Xue Ling held the old man's hand and explained: "I didn't get enough rest in the past few days. I had to catch a car and a plane, and I was worried about my father, so I was very depressed. Fortunately, my third uncle prepared two pairs of anti-fetal pills for me.
After drinking it, I recovered quickly. There has been nothing unusual in the past two days, and my appetite is very good. Today the doctor said that the due date is about a week."
"As long as it's okay, that's okay." Liu Ying smiled and nodded.
The son called home and said that his wife was going to have a baby in the next few days and he couldn't rush back to Rongcheng, otherwise the baby would most likely be born on the road.
After discussing with her husband, she immediately decided to rush over to take care of her daughter-in-law during the confinement period. Xue Wu's family was injured here, and he couldn't help. He still needed someone to take care of him, so he would definitely be short of manpower.
Fortunately they made it in time...
Everyone washed their hands and ate the dumplings quickly.
Liu Ying ate one and praised: "This dumpling is well made. The wrapper is chewy but not thick."
"That's right! I'm a professional." Cheng Tianfang ate one bite after another.
Cheng Muhai chuckled: "The pasta in Imperial City is famous throughout the country, and they are indeed professional."
Xue Ling went to call Cheng Tianyuan to come over and eat something, "You hurried to take a shower at noon and then rushed to the airport. You must be hungry already. I bought a lot, eat it while it's hot."
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask: "Why are you here? Does Dad have someone here?"
"Don't worry, there are plenty of them!" Xue Ling explained: "Sanbo and Uncle Zhilan are over there. The two of them were playing chess and chatting. My dad was having a great time chatting with them. I've already collected the details, so there's no need to talk about it today.
Damn, there's nothing for me, a big-bellied woman, to do over there. I came by car and I'll be here in about ten minutes."
She looked around and asked anxiously: "Which room is Xiao Ranran in? Why can't I find it?"
