Chapter 131

Zhao Lanxiang looked down at the cautious man touching her stomach, and her lips could not help but raise.

In fact, her palms were so sweaty. She was no less excited than He Songbai.

She wanted a child so much in her last life. A child who belonged to him and also to her. A child with traces of the two of them in their eyebrows and nose and a mix of their genes in their body. Just thinking about this kind of thing would make her feel soft and bubbly.

However, contrary to expectations, the injuries suffered when she was young completely cut off Zhao Lanxiang's dream. She dragged down He Songbai, and he had never enjoyed the joy of being a father in his last life. Zhao Lanxiang always felt guilty for him. But now, it has completely changed.

The big hands of fate aside the haze for her, and since then, her life is full of light... Zhao Lanxiang's eyes felt sore.

She lowered her head and put her hand on her abdomen, and said softly, "Tang Tang, you must be good. We will see you in nine months."

He Songbai saw the woman lowered her eyebrows, her crow-like eyelashes cast a shadow, and the white jade's neck bent into an incredibly gentle arc, which made He Songbai's heart slightly collapse and soft.

He also... felt very warm.

He poured a glass of milk, waited for his wife to drink it, and took another pile of books to help her pass the time.

"I don't know what expression our parents would make if they knew about this news," He Songbai said suddenly.

Zhao Lanxiang thought for a while, whether when he came to the Zhao house or when they got a marriage certificate, her parents were caught by surprise. If they told them such news later, and it is hard for her parents not to think crooked.

She sipped milk until she finished the glass, pondering, and said, "Please ask for more blessings."

He Songbai scratched the back of his head, feeling that a beating was inevitable. He smiled happily, showing his white teeth, "If I get beaten... don't be afraid. I have thick skin."

...

Although Grandma told Zhao Lanxiang to make her pay attention to her body and don't stay up tonight, when Zhao Lanxiang was excited, she summoned He Songbai to set up the firecrackers and fireworks.

At night, the village is quiet, and there is no sound of firecrackers at all. If it was not because the smell of food is everywhere, this night is probably no different from every night in the past.

He Songbai welcomed good news, and it was hard not to be excited. He took the lead in putting out a few fireworks to express his excitement. Previously, he disliked that his wife bought a bunch of fireworks and firecrackers. He thought it would be troublesome to put them off, but now he thought it was not enough.

The three fireworks were lined up neatly. If they changed the pile every hour, and their accumulated inventory would soon be exhausted. If he knew the good news earlier, probably he would order a little more.

He squeezed an incense and lighted it. The fireworks rang out, and soon a loud "bang" sound flew into the air, bursting with gorgeous sparks.

The fireworks exploded faster and faster, attracting everyone else in the family. It also attracted people in the village who were full of food, drunk, and were chatting at home.

They looked at the night sky one after another and could not help sighing, "This is what the city... flowers?"

"It's fireworks!"

"It's really beautiful. I saw it on TV, it looks like this, yes!"

But the fireworks in black and white TV are gray. How can you see the fireworks' color?

People heard the loud noises of fireworks as if exploding in their ears. The rumbling sounded like thunder and thunder, which made people's hearts beat faster, and about to jump out. The villagers who had never seen the fireworks stared at it as if they were staring at the New World, happy and excited.

The fireworks in the night sky are colorful and dazzling people's eyes. The gleaming silver-yellow color and the big red flower suddenly leaping out, the blue light splashed, throwing a mass of blue, extraordinary. Fireworks turn from prosperity to decline, bright fireworks stars turn from bright to dark, and blend into the night.

It makes people look infatuated, and they can't forget it in their life.

Under the same night sky, Zhao Lanxiang exclaimed, "It's so lively."

"I remember one year on New Year's Eve, when I was watching fireworks in the city, I would suddenly think of Brother Bai, thinking about your pitiful appearance, thinking about whether you can save money when I'm gone. I hoped you were there."

He Songbai laughed involuntarily, and he said, "At that time we were poor, it was really poor."

"But I also look forward to the New Year, year after year. I can only eat sausages and meat in the New Year. The year you left, you left behind a lot of sausages, and the whole family ate for a month..."

"I am particularly grateful to you, Lanxiang. If it were not for you, I might still be the poor second-rate boy, and I would not have a college education or such a warm home."

He Songbai said slowly.

At that time, they were all numb, working hard to eat a full stomach, but could not see a little hope in life. The arrival of his wife brought light to the whole family—not just warmth but also motivation.

Now he felt that she was like a fairy that purposely came to rescue him.

He Songbai felt very hot. He pulled his wife back to the house and kissed her.

"Sometimes I am jealous of me in my last life, but sometimes I feel that "me" in the last life must be envious of "me" now, so I think it is balanced."

"After all, you came to me in the end."

He said warmly, sipping her lips gently.

A burst of fireworks blew again, and the crowd will begin to boil, "Good-looking!"

"It's like a fairy."

This group of rural people praised as much as possible with poor words.

When they noticed that the fireworks were actually released from the He family, their jaws fell off the ground.

"Oh, secretly, the second child of the He family has completely turned the scene. He even willing to buy such expensive things."

"Got a wife from the city. The poor boy's family got in the water and turned into a dragon. They made a fortune!

Whether the He family has money or not is not necessarily the case, but their new daughter-in-law is definitely rich. At that time, everyone saw that Educated Youth Zhao bought meat every three days. Which daughter-in-law will not leave all the money at home?

At this moment, the He family's second child seems to have become a man who eats soft rice and a small white face in the eyes of everyone, but they are very envious.

[T/N: "Eating soft rice" is a term for a man who uses a woman's money. "A small white face" is equivalent to a boy toy.]

On the first day of the Chinese New Year, He Songbai hurried to the city with his wife when it dawned.

On the first day on the New Year, the hospital was very cold, and there were very few people. Zhao Lanxiang did not have to wait in line. She looked at the positive index on the urine test result, and the stone in her heart fell.

He Songbai took her to take the ultrasound picture. The weak bean sprout in the black-and-white ultrasound film was difficult for him to see.

He said, "In a few months, we will know whether it is Tang Tang or Dahai."

Zhao Lanxiang laughed loudly. Luckily she didn't drink water just now. Otherwise, she would spray it out.

They were too rushed to get a nickname, and they had news before they had time to think of a name for a baby boy. This "Dahai" is probably thought of by this new father's quick wit.

"The name "Dahai" is very earthy."

He Songbai scratched his head and asked, "How about Dahe?"

[T/N: Dahai means big sea, and Dahe means big river.]

"Why can't it be like Tang Tang? Why we have to call him sea or river..." She wrote the words "Tang Tang" in his palm.

He Songbai insisted on seeking benefits for his daughter, and he shook his head, "Tang Tang is such a lovely name. It is suitable for daughters. The name Dahai is not earthy. The rougher the nickname, the easier it is to raise the child. This is the custom in our rural areas. Haven't you heard of nicknames like Gou Sheng and Mao Dan?"

[T/N: Gou Sheng means dog's leftover, and Mao Dan means cat egg.]

Zhao Lanxiang was speechless.

...

In early February, on the day the dragon looked up.

The He family generously arranged a wedding banquet. A total of eighteen tables were set up, and they could not be placed in the small courtyard. A temporary tent was set up, and they invited a chef who specializes in a wedding banquet and put a lively celebration.

Because the granddaughter-in-law just had good news, Grandma Li was so happy that she couldn't hold her mouth together. She even got them to kill five pigs.

This shocked the elderly members of the older generation in one breath. They could just say that the bourgeois style of the old landlord's lady was revived! When the He family set up a hundred-day celebration for their young lady, they invited the whole village to have a running feast for several days.

And now, it's just to marry a wife.

The man from the pig farm that came to deliver the pork heard these words and couldn't help saying to the Hezi village's people, "What the f*** are you talking about?"

"My boss is not a man who eats soft rice. If he had to rely on soft food, how could he able to afford this scene? He doesn't need to beg for a wife."

"He has several pig farms that are so large--" The guy made a gesture, bigger than the hill, which made the members kept marveling.

"Our pig farm is one of the largest in the N city, and the pork is sold to neighboring cities. How can a man so rich became a man who leans on the skirt and depends on his wife?"

The buddy said again in disdain, after which he drove away in the empty bullock cart and left a group of dumbfounded villagers.

The villagers heard the words and couldn't help but get angry. "The He family's second son... hey—he is dishonest."

"When did the pig farm open?"

"If I knew that, my family would have started early. Wouldn't the folks in the village will be closer than an outsider?"

A group of people deplored that the fat fish, which is the He family's second child, had slipped into the field of outsiders. But thinking about how their relationship with the He family was not good for so many years, it is too late to get closer now. At that time, the He family was scolded by many people in the village. Their family was likely involved, so they have no face to join in now.

However, this feast is really good. There are good meat and vegetables that are rich in oil, which is more festive than the New Year. After eating, they can also take home the leftovers, and their meals for the next few days are resolved. Many young people in the countryside couldn't help but surround He Songbai. Even though they were not close growing up, admiration was not really an admiration, but they also wanted to go to his pig farm to seek a living and go out to see the world.

Grandma Li looked at the booming bustle in front of her house as if vaguely revisiting her status when her family was in prosperity.

She clapped her grandson's hand with a smile, "Brother Bai, your grandpa and dad will be very pleased to see you."
