The two knew that the time they spent together was short, and they cherished every day together.
Every Sunday, the family of three goes out to play.
Today, the three of them came to catch the sea again.
Xiaojie likes to catch the sea the most, holding a bucket with pliers and running along to pick up various seafood.
Yu Xiangnian and Cheng Jingmo walked slowly behind, not like they were here to catch the sea, but more like they were here for a date.
Xiaojie had already picked up a small bucket full of seafood, but when he saw the two people chatting and laughing at the beach, he didn't pick it up at all.
He was happy in his heart and walked past with no expression on his face, "Uncle, give me your bucket."
Cheng Jingmo saw a lot of shrimps in Xiaojie's bucket and praised, "Not bad, your aunt loves shrimps the most."
He and Xiaojie unknowingly focused on Yu Xiangnian, and subconsciously looked for Yu Xiangnian's favorite food.
Yu Xiangnian said to Cheng Jingmo: "Then let's go find oysters."
Cheng Jingmo asked seriously: "Do you think I'm not working hard enough?"
Yu Xiangnian laughed, "I'm afraid you'll be drained, so I'll give you some replenishment."
The three of them found three buckets full of seafood, and Xiaojie found two buckets alone. The bicycles were full of them.
It was just after noon when we returned to the family home.
Yu Xiangnian said: "Cheng Jingmo, go and invite Wang Hongxiang and Liu Zhen's family to have dinner together. We can't finish all the seafood."
Wang Hongxiang and Liu Zhen are Yu Xiangnian's best friends in the family courtyard.
On weekdays, whenever she had something to do, the two of them would help her without any hesitation.
The house is very busy today, with six adults and six children.
Men are processing seafood outside, and women are boiling water for cooking in the kitchen.
"Comrade Yu, call us next time you go to sea. We want to go too!" Liu Zhen said while cutting vegetables.
Yu Xiangnian sat in front of the kitchen door and made a fire, "The seaside is quite far away."
Neither family owns bicycles, so walking to the beach would be exhausting.
Wang Hongxiang said: "It seems that our family has to buy a bicycle."
Liu Zhen also agreed.
For more than a year, the two of them did some small business and made a lot of money.
Yu Xiangnian said: "If you want to learn to ride a bicycle, I can lend you my bicycle."
"How can this be possible!" Liu Zhen felt embarrassed, "Comrade Yu, you are so generous."
Wang Hongxiang picked up the conversation and said sincerely, "No! You are generous and kind. If you hadn't suggested that we do business and lent me your sewing machine, I wouldn't have dared to think that I could make money myself!"
Yu Xiangnian smiled nonchalantly, "The sewing machine is almost broken when I leave it here. It's best to make the best use of it. It's your ability to make money."
Wang Hongxiang and Liu Zhen cooked a table full of dishes, including stir-fried scallops, steamed crabs, spicy shrimps, braised fish, garlic oysters, stir-fried cabbage, cold shredded lettuce, and several pickles.
There was a table for adults and a table for children, and everyone ate enthusiastically.
Cheng Jingmo would peel a shrimp from time to time and put it into Yu Xiangnian's bowl.
Liu Zhen was envious and happy, "I never dreamed that Deputy Commander Cheng and Comrade Yu could be so loving!"
Thinking back then, the sound of smashing pots and bowls was often heard by those who lived next door.
Dong Minghao glanced at Cheng Jingmo with a penetrating look.
He had long suspected that Cheng Jingmo had fallen in love with Yu Xiangnian the first time he saw her, but Cheng Jingmo was stubborn and refused to admit it!
It’s the end of January in a blink of an eye, and the annual Spring Festival is here.
On the 29th day of the lunar calendar, Cheng Jingmo's family of three returned to Xiang Nian's house for a reunion dinner.
The family sat around the table, and there was Yu Xiangyang's favorite braised pork on the table.
Yu Xiangnian looked at the bowl of braised pork and suddenly retched.
She hurriedly ran into the bathroom and vomited several times.
The people at the table looked at each other. Except for Yu Xiangyang and Cheng Jingmo, everyone's expressions became much more serious.
Cheng Jingmo also immediately followed to the bathroom. He patted Yu Xiangnian's back, "Did you have a bad stomach?"
Yu Xiangnian retched a few times and turned pale.
She stood there in a daze.
She was careless!
During this time, she was busy working during the day and hanging out with Cheng Jingmo at night. She even forgot that her menstrual period was delayed for more than half a month!
It should have been planted on the night of Cheng Jingmo's birthday.
The two of them were crazy that night, and the condom fell off once in the middle. She thought that those days were not the ovulation period, so there should be no problem.
Who knew, it was just a lucky break!
Cheng Jingmo looked at Yu Xiangnian's dazed look, put his hand on her shoulder and shook her, "Niannian?"
Yu Xiangnian came to his senses, but he was very confused, "Cheng Jingmo, you eat first, I will be alone for a while."
Zhao Ruozhu came just at this time, "Cheng Jingmo, you go to eat first, I'll watch her."
After Cheng Jingmo left, Zhao Ruozhu said, "How long has your period been delayed?"
Yu Xiangnian was at a loss for words at this moment, "Mom, you go out, I'll be alone for a while."
Zhao Ruozhu said: "When I get back to work after the new year, I will take you to check it out."
Cheng Jingmo sat back at the table, and his sister-in-law teased him, "Cheng Jingmo, it seems you are going to be a father!"
These words were like a huge thunder exploding in his ears!
His whole body froze, and his consciousness was blurred. There were only the words "You are going to be a father" in his ears, and the faces and voices of the people around him were blurred.
It was Yu Xiangyang next to him who pushed him, "Look at how stupid you are! You won't be so happy to have a son when you are old!"
Cheng Jingmo stood up suddenly and walked towards the bathroom again.
He happened to meet Zhao Ruozhu who was walking over. Zhao Ruozhu stopped him and said, "Nian Nian wants to be alone for a while."
Cheng Jingmo was surprised and happy, "Mom, sister-in-law said that Niannian is pregnant!"
Zhao Ruozhu was worried in his heart. Judging from Yu Xiangnian's attitude, he didn't seem to want the child very much.
"Cheng Jingmo, please don't get excited. After the New Year, I will take her to the hospital for a check-up to make sure." Zhao Ruozhu said, "Let's go eat first!"
Yu Xiangnian leaned against the bathroom wall, feeling exhausted.
She was completely unprepared to have a child. Besides, she was going to college soon. How could she go to college while pregnant? !
After Yu Xiangnian calmed down, he returned to the dinner table. Everyone was almost full.
Cheng Jingmo barely ate.
During the meal, he also calmed down.
Yu Xiangnian's reaction just now was at a loss, not at all happy. Her attitude was obvious.
Cheng Jingmo felt faintly uneasy.
Although the child was an accident, he had to admit that from the moment he knew Yu Xiangnian was pregnant to now, he was so happy that he almost took off!
But he also understood Yu Xiangnian's worries.
Zhao Ruozhu stayed at home for one night and would go back tomorrow morning.
Cheng Jingmo thought that it was dark, the ride was bumpy, and Yu Xiangnian was pregnant, so it was not safe.
Besides, it would be more convenient to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables tomorrow morning.
A family of three stayed at Xiang Nian's home.
When sleeping, Cheng Jingmo hugged Yu Xiangnian and said, "Niannian, what do you think?"
