Yan Ningbai clutched his pants and pouted as he nodded his little round head. His earlier vigor was gone, and now he was listless.
Lin Chu could not bear to see this and was about to say something when Yan Beicheng stopped her.
"He's not a child from an ordinary family. His surname is Yan, so he's destined to bear a lot of things," Yan Beicheng whispered to Lin Chu. Yan Beicheng whispered to Lin Chu, "Don't be fooled by Ningbai's usual cheerfulness. Yan Huaian and Yu Zi are very strict with him and have high expectations for him. There are many things that can't be kept quiet just because he's young. Since his surname is Yan, as long as there's something wrong, no matter what age he is, we can't just ignore it. We have to straighten it out for him. Besides, as a boy, even if he's still a child, as long as he has the word 'boy' in him, he shouldn't be so talkative. "
Lin Chu sighed and did not say anything else.
Yan Ningbai's eyes were a little red as he held back his tears and nodded. "I promise I won't say anything in the future."
Yan Huaian nodded and ruffled Yan Ningbai's soft hair. He comforted him, "It's okay, Dad isn't blaming you. I'm just trying to reason with you."
Yan Ningbai was still listless and listless.
Mo Jinxi was nervous and grabbed the sofa's armrest. "It's all my fault."
"It has nothing to do with you. It was Ningbai who wanted to say it," Yan Huaian said. "But what I said to Ningbai just now is the same for you. You're a boy. You promised not to say anything, so you have to do it."
Mo Jinxi nodded heavily. "Chu Chu and I think it's okay to let her say it herself."
"Good boy," Yan Huaian praised.
"Okay, don't be sad," Lin Chu said to the two boys. However, since Yan Huaian had just lectured her, she did not want to drag him down and say that this was not a big deal. "I want you to be happy for me. I don't want you to be sad because of this and blame it on me." Lin Chu said to the two little guys.
Yan Ningbai pursed his little red lips slightly and forced an embarrassed smile. He was a little shy, but he felt that he had done something wrong. He lowered his head and looked at his bulging tummy before sneaking a peek at Lin Chu's tummy.
His careful and pitiful look was especially adorable. It was so adorable that Lin Chu could not wait to give birth to the child so that she could have such a cute little fellow.
Seeing that Yan Ningbai had just been taught a lesson and was still a little hesitant, Lin Chu suddenly thought of a solution. "Oh right, Lunar New Year's Eve is here too. When we're staying here, Lunar New Year's Eve will have to stay here too."
As expected, Yan Ningbai immediately showed a surprised expression. The dark cloud above his head instantly drifted away. Yan Ningbai's little face lit up as he turned around to look for it.
Chu Xi trotted over with its tongue sticking out.
Yan Ningbai was no longer as listless as before. Instead, he was smiling happily. Mo Jinxi also heaved a sigh of relief. He always felt that he had implicated Yan Ningbai and caused him to get scolded.
Chu Xi ran over and licked the two little guys.
Mo Jinxi was so happy that his little face was red. He ran over, but when he was about to get close to Lin Chu, he slowed down his pace. He was afraid that he would bump into Lin Chu.
She grabbed the armrest of the sofa with her small hands. Her eyes were bright and clear. She wanted to reach forward with her hands but she didn't dare. She asked pitifully, "Chuchu, Ningbai said that my sister is in your stomach. But your stomach isn't big enough. Can you fit her in?"
Mo Jinxi looked at Lin Chu's flat tummy. It was obvious that it could not fit a little person.
He knew the size of a baby from watching TV. Even if it was very small, it could not fit inside.
"He hasn't grown up yet. In a few months, my tummy will slowly get bigger and bigger. The child inside will grow as well. That's why my tummy is so big. Look at other pregnant women, aren't they like this? Lin Chu said with a smile.
Mo Jinxi nodded in understanding. His eyes glanced at Lin Chu's tummy again with some kind of ardent hope.
His gaze did not escape Yan Beicheng's eyes. Yan Beicheng was furious. How could he not know that this little brat was thinking about his unborn daughter?!
They did not even know the gender of the baby in Lin Chu's tummy yet, but he was already calling her a little sister!
"How can you be so sure that it's a little sister? It could also be a little brother." Yan Beicheng's expression darkened. He was always rude to Mo Jinxi. Mo Jinxi was used to it and did not take it to heart.
Lin Chu admired this child. If anyone else saw Yan Beicheng like this, they would have been scared out of their wits. Mo Jinxi had even developed antibodies.
Mo Jinxi choked. "I … I think it's a little sister."
Yan Beicheng sneered. "It's not like you can change it from a little brother to a little sister just because you call her a little sister a few more times."
He narrowed his eyes. Based on Mo Jinxi's interest in his daughter, he could not let his first child be a daughter. It would be better if it was a son. Mo Jinxi would be disappointed to death!
It was not that he looked down on Mo Jinxi's status as an orphan. He did not even care about Lin Chu's status, so why would he care about family background?
It was just that as a father, he did not want his daughter to be taken away by any little brat. He did not like any boy and no one was good enough for his daughter. He was determined not to give his daughter to anyone else.
Yan Beicheng could not help but wonder if he should have a daughter two years later. That way, Mo Jinxi would be older and would not be able to eat young grass.
Lin Chu suddenly looked at Yan Beicheng as if she knew what he was thinking. She even curled her lips at him with a mocking look on her face.
It was as if she was saying, "An old cow eating young grass is sitting right here."
Yan Beicheng suddenly felt guilty. He rubbed his nose and did not answer. He thought about how he was 15 years old and was almost an adult. Lin Chu, on the other hand, was about the same age as Yan Ningbai and Mo Jinxi now. She was still immature.
This grass was too tender to be eaten.
Mo Jinxi was not discouraged by Yan Beicheng's words. He looked at Lin Chu expectantly. "Chu Chu, can I touch your belly?"
"Sure." Lin Chu generously allowed him to touch her belly. "It's just that my belly isn't big yet, so you won't be able to feel anything. When I'm four months pregnant, my belly will be this big. "
Lin Chu gestured in front of her belly. "When that time comes, you'll be able to feel him moving in my belly. Sometimes he'll stretch his arms, and sometimes he'll kick his legs."
Mo Jinxi had a curious expression on his face. His little hand gently rested on Lin Chu's belly. Even though it was still flat now, it seemed to be that big in his eyes.
His little hand did not dare to exert any strength. He gently rested his hand on her belly. It was so light that Lin Chu felt a little ticklish.
"Little sister, little sister, grow up quickly. Come out and let brother play with you." Mo Jinxi looked sincere.
However, in his heart, he was thinking, 'Childhood sweethearts or whatever, that's the best.'
Yan Beicheng was furious. Mo Jinxi was still thinking about his daughter.
"It's a son. Lin Chu is pregnant with a son!" Yan Beicheng said with a dark expression.
Mo Jinxi said in surprise, "You actually favor boys over girls!"
Yan Beicheng, "…"
Lin Chu looked at his deflated expression and laughed.
"Little sister, little sister, don't be sad. Your father doesn't love you, but I do." Mo Jinxi comforted Lin Chu's belly. "Don't be sad just because your father favors boys over girls. Let's ignore him, ah!"
Old Master Yan and Old Lady Yan heard Mo Jinxi's words from outside and were stunned when they came in.
"Cheng 'er, you actually favor boys over girls?!" Old Lady Yan asked in surprise and disappointment.
The two elders had been drinking tea and eating snacks outside since yesterday. They put on an expression that said, "My family has good news, but I won't say it. Guess if you have the guts." It disgusted the neighbors around them.
Yesterday, a naive neighbor asked them why they were so happy. The two elders were so happy that they showed off for the whole day. They only came back at night when the wind started to blow.
In the end, the two elders tried the same trick again today, but no one paid them any attention. The two elders felt that it was meaningless, so they could only unwillingly pack their things and come back.
"Who said I favor boys over girls?" Yan Beicheng said through gritted teeth. Facing Old Lady Yan's accusatory gaze, Yan Beicheng pointed at Mo Jinxi. "This brat is talking nonsense. He's the one who wants my daughter. He even said that I favor boys over girls."
It was so unfair to be wronged by this brat!
Old Lady Yan felt that it was not good to be determined by Mo Jinxi before they even knew whether she was his great-grandson or great-granddaughter. She quickly advised Mo Jinxi, "Jinxi, don't force my great-grandson. If it's a boy, you'll be forcing him."
Mo Jinxi did not argue with Old Lady Yan. He continued to talk to Lin Chu's belly, "Little sister, let's not rush. If this child is your brother and he comes out before you, then I'll wait for you to come next time, little sister."
In short, she was still a little sister.
Old Lady Yan, "…" This brat was so cunning!
Old Master Yan, "…" Don't even think about my great-granddaughter!
Yan Beicheng, "…" Even if she was born, it wouldn't be your little sister!
Lin Chu, "…" The child is in my belly. Don't be like this, Jinxi.
After Mo Jinxi finished talking, he did not bother to look at Lin Chu's belly. Instead, he glanced at Lin Chu's belly from time to time. It was as if the more he looked at it, the faster she would become a little sister and give birth.
Yan Beicheng was very gloomy as he watched. He happened to see Lin Chu pick up the hawthorn that she was about to eat earlier and take a big bite out of it. She looked like she was enjoying it, which attracted the attention of the two little guys.
Although the hawthorn was sour, it smelled good. It was sweet and sour with a delicate fragrance. Both of them had eaten candied haws before, but they had never eaten the hawthorn directly.
Although the candied haws were sour, they were wrapped in sugar. When the sugar was wrapped, it was more or less heated, so the sourness was reduced by a lot. Therefore, the two little guys were very innocent and naive. They thought that the hawthorn was as delicious as the candied haws.
"Big niece-in-law, isn't the hawthorn sour?" Yan Ningbai swallowed his saliva and asked greedily.
"It's not sour," Lin Chu said honestly. Of course, this was only for herself.
She did not notice the two little guys' greedy expressions earlier. Now that she saw it, she could not help but have a mischievous thought. She smiled and took another bite.
She ate it with relish. It was as if her mouth and teeth were fragrant. Yan Ningbai and Mo Jinxi were very close to each other. They could smell the sweet and sour aroma of the hawthorn.
