Qiaoqiao said: "Mom, you and your father have been married for so long, why did you come to pick me up? Mom, Qiaoqiao doesn't blame you, because mother doesn't know, Qiaoqiao is waiting for you. Now it's better, Qiaoqiao finally waited for her mother Come on, mom..."
In an instant, tears welled up in Xiaowu's eyes.
It turned out that Qiaoqiao had regarded her as her mother from the day she married Wang Yue.
Qiaoqiao lost her mother when she was two years old and has no memory of her mother. In her world, the woman who married her father is her mother.
She hugged her pretty little soft body tightly and burst into tears, "I'm sorry...Mom, mom is late..."
Buddha said that it takes 500 looks back in the previous life to pass by one in this life.
Perhaps the mother-child relationship between her and Qiao Qiao was something she owed to the child in her previous life, and God made this arrangement specifically so that she could repay it in this life.
Forget it, since she regards her as her mother, she should repay the debt from her previous life and treat this child well.
At seven or eight o'clock in the evening, the mall is open.
Xiaowo bought some new clothes for Qiao Qiao inside and outside.
When she was changing her child's clothes, she realized that her pretty body was also dirty. It looked like no one had bathed her for a long time.
Xiaowu couldn't help but feel a sore nose.
They say that a child without a mother is like a grass, and they are absolutely right.
After buying clothes, when she was leaving the mall, she saw the toys at the door and asked Qiaoqiao to pick two more toys.
A pink Barbie doll, a bag of rubber dinosaurs.
She asked her children to pick a few more items, but Qiaoqiao was timid and only dared to take so many.
Along the way, Qiaoqiao kept holding her hand tightly and refused to let go for a second.
When I returned to my residence, I put a tub of hot water in the den and wanted to give Qiaoqiao a bath.
Qiaoqiao was a little resistant at first, but after she got used to the water temperature, she kept sitting in the tub and happily playing with her dinosaur toys.
After playing for a while, I suddenly thought of something and shouted anxiously: "Mom, mom..."
"Hey, mom is here, it's so fun."
Hearing the sound of the nest, she started playing with confidence again.
After a while, she called her mother again, and Xiaowo responded promptly every time.
Repeatedly.
After taking a bath, Qiaoqiao felt sleepy. Before falling asleep, she kept hugging Xiaowo's neck and wouldn't let go.
Two days later, after recruiting all the housekeeping staff, Xiaowo returned to Hangzhou with Qiaoqiao.
Since then, Wang Yue has been more obedient to Xiaowo.
It's strange that Qiaoqiao is closer to Xiaowo than Wang Yue. People who don't know may think Wang Yue is the stepfather.
Xu Hong and the three sisters in Xiaowo kept clicking their tongues and sighing, frowning and curling their lips when they saw Qiao Qiao.
Finally, Xu Hong said helplessly:
"Hey, take it. It's a life after all. If you don't have a mother to interfere with you when you grow up, maybe you can take care of it."
After having Qiaoqiao, Wang Yue no longer had to worry about the money on his salary card.
In the past, Wang Yue had given her his salary card, but she seemed to just keep it for safekeeping. Every time she spent a larger amount of money, she had to carefully obtain his permission in advance before she could spend it with peace of mind.
Now, she has complete control over this salary card and can spend it as she wants without asking him at all. She just wants to say hello to him afterwards and let him know.
Of course, she is not someone who spends money randomly.
After Qiaoqiao came to Hangzhou, Xiaowo was only responsible for managing the housekeeping company and stopped doing door-to-door work, so that he could have time to take care of Qiaoqiao's daily life.
Xiaowo thought that since the child followed her and called her mom, she would take her into her hands.
She didn't want to take advantage of other people's hands when it came to matters related to her children.
Qiaoqiao is very sensible. She can do things such as washing, eating, dressing, and putting away toys independently, which makes Xiaowo worry-free.
Mother and daughter get along very harmoniously, as if they were biological children.
After Xu Zhiyi found out about this, she was envious of Xiaowo and envied her painless motherhood.
If possible, she would also like to be a painless mother.
On August 10, Xu Zhiyi participated in the selection interview, and the results were announced on the spot.
She was the first, and after the seven-day public notice period, she was officially transferred to Pingyue School to teach.
Even though Pingyue School is just a suburban rural school, the competition is very fierce, no worse than those key middle schools in the city.
Many rural teachers with several years of teaching experience were unwilling to go to key middle schools in the city when they were transferred. They thought teaching in key middle schools was too stressful, too busy, and too hard.
Just stay in a rural middle school, it's too far from home.
As a result, suburban schools like Pingyue School have become their first choice.
It's close to home and relatively easy, but the number of places is limited each year, so it's hard to get in.
Once inside, most teachers retire here.
Xu Zhiyi had no such plans. When the conditions were met, she would still have to get admitted to a school in the city.
In the past few days, she had focused all her energy on this matter. When the interview was over, her attention turned entirely to her children.
There was a new problem before her.
Should I choose a natural birth or a caesarean section?
No matter which choice she made, she was afraid.
It all hurts.
How much does it hurt?
She asked when she met someone who had given birth.
Every time I ask the elders, including Li Zijuan, they all say lightly:
"There is no pain in giving birth. Don't think blindly. It's natural. You'll know it by then."
However, she wanted to be mentally prepared in advance.
Then you can only ask other people.
Who knows, the more I ask, the more clueless I feel.
Some people say that the pain of giving birth is worse than death.
Some people say that it is just like that, just like constipation, and finally pooping.
Well……
This metaphor...
Is this how shit babies come to be?
However, everyone reminded her to take care of herself early.
Especially since she is pregnant with twins, her belly will be frighteningly large, and stretch marks will definitely appear. She can only take care of them to prevent them from growing.
"What do stretch marks look like?" she asked out of curiosity.
"Well, that's it, ugly."
A close colleague showed her the stretch marks on her belly.
Seeing those purple stretch marks, Xu Zhiyi was really scared.
A colleague joked:
“This is how I look after a year of recovery, just after giving birth, and it’s even uglier than this.
If you are pregnant with two, your belly will be more stretched out than mine.
Hey, a woman makes a big sacrifice when she gives birth to a child. From then on, beautiful women become passers-by, hahaha..."
Since then, Xu Zhiyi has been worried about stretch marks again. She went to a maternal and child store to buy special skin care products and applied them carefully every day without being lazy.
There is still one day left for the selection announcement period to expire, and in another week, it will be the first day of school, and she will officially go to work at Pingyue School.
She thought about it and insisted on exercising appropriately every day after going to work to lay a good physical foundation for the birth of her child.
Well, in short, it is impossible to relax before the child is born.
In the evening, when she came back from a walk, she didn't expect to see Xu Cheng and Li Zijuan in the living room of Mingzhai.
Accompanying them were four elders from the Ming family.
As soon as she came in, the elders' eyes fell on her and they kept watching her sit down safely.
Xu Zhiyi said in surprise to Xu Cheng and Li Zijuan:
"Dad, Mom, when you came, why didn't you tell me in advance? If you told me, I would come back sooner."
Xu Cheng and Li Zijuan smiled unnaturally.
At this time, Xu Zhiyi realized that the elders looked at her a little strangely.
Her smile faltered and she asked uneasily: "Why are you looking at me like this? What happened?"
Li Zijuan hurriedly sat next to her and gave her a vaccination, "Girl, there is something wrong with your selection. Later, your father will tell you slowly that you are pregnant. No matter what, don't do it." Excited."
Feng Xiaoyu also quickly comforted her, "Daughter-in-law, your mother is right. In fact, it's not a big deal. We are just afraid that you will get excited."
Xu Zhiyi's heart skipped a beat.
