Chapter 1316: Pregnancy

"The doctor said we can’t be sure yet. Let’s go next month for a check-up; it will be the first month of the lunar year, and she said she doesn’t take holidays. We can go find her.""Oh, then you must be careful. When Sister Xiaoli was pregnant, Uncle Yang didn’t let her do anything. You shouldn’t do any work either; I’ll handle cooking."

"It’s not that delicate."

"That’s not right. By the way, what do you want to eat, sister-in-law? I’ve arranged with Aunt She to buy tofu tomorrow. Fermented tofu and sweet flour paste."

"I don’t know what I want to eat. We can freeze the tofu into frozen tofu; it would be nice if we could eat it with pickled cabbage."

"Haha, you want to eat pickled cabbage, sister-in-law? That’s easy. Before coming over, Aunt She also reminded my brother to get pickled cabbage from her house; she pickled a lot this year."

Though not confirmed, everyone in the family was very anxious about Li Xue, fearing any mishaps.

Lv Beiguang even privately told Guodong not to bother Li Xue. He is genuinely worried about these two kids being unaware of themselves, but he managed to express his concern despite being hesitant.

"Dad, the doctor already advised us. I know."

Guodong and Chaoyang brought back more than twenty heads of pickled cabbage from She Xiaoyun. Tonight, they made hot noodle soup with pickled cabbage. Li Xue ate two large bowls.

In the capital, the kids have been getting along well with Yang Run Tai. He was really taking them to famous places, and the meals were never repetitive.

Today, they went to Antique Street, which Shang Zhenkun had specially talked about.

"Let’s see how much you’ve learned from Master Shang," Old Yang said with a smile to the four older ones. Although Zhao Xiaoqiang didn’t understand this.

"Yes, if you like something, buy it yourself and let Master Shang appraise it for you at home."

The three nodded excitedly, especially Feifei, who particularly loved such things.

Yang Run Tai also noticed that this little girl liked this sort of thing; it’s simple, there are many such places, so he took them to explore.

Being able to satisfy the little girl’s preferences, Yang Run Tai was naturally willing.

Feifei and the other two split up to act separately, and the three adults held the three youngsters.

Han Xiangjun followed Feifei with Shi Xian in his arms; Wei Kaiyun wanted to do the same but couldn’t beat Han Xiangjun.

Yang Run Tai also followed Han Xiangjun. "Shi Xian, how about coming to your brother’s arms?"

The little guy laughed and reached out, even patting Han Xiangjun.

"Uncle Han, this kid is smart. He’s worried you’ll get tired and can distinguish between insiders and outsiders."

Han Xiangjun just smiled. Over time, this kid has become very good with him, although not as much as with Wei Kaiyun. After all, Wei Kaiyun is his actual father.

With Shi Xian in Yang Run Tai’s arms, Han Xiangjun walked alongside Feifei.

"Darling, this is like a test for the three of you."

"Uncle Han, no need to put it that way."

"Haha, it really is."

"Alright then, I won’t let you down, but if I win, Uncle Han has to find me two paintings by a master."

"No problem. I know who has them. Last time I asked him, he wouldn’t sell to me. Feifei, as long as you get first place, I’ll figure it out."

"Alright, it’s a deal."

Yang Run Tai listened to the little girl’s clear, joyful voice from behind. She wants Master Xu’s paintings. He realized he actually has a few.

But why does this little girl have an interest in Master Xu’s paintings?

"Feifei, you’re a girl. Shouldn’t you be more interested in jewelry, gold, and silver?"

"Uncle Han, I like those too, but what I love most are rare items, well-known calligraphy and paintings."

"Alright, Uncle Han will keep looking for them."

Yang Run Tai continued carrying Shi Xian behind the two. The little girl went from shop to shop, picking inexpensive items, the most expensive costing around twenty yuan.

Han Xiangjun was responsible for carrying the things.

Shi Xian was curious about these as well. He grabbed a ceramic horse paperweight and wouldn’t let go.

Feifei spent two yuan to buy it for him.

The little guy wasn’t comfortable with Yang Run Tai holding it, "Uncle Han, help me."

"Shi Xian, you’re full of bright ideas," Yang Run Tai laughed.

By noon, at Shi Xian’s request, they went to eat hot pot lamb. The little guy loved eating it.

After lunch, everyone returned home. The three little ones needed rest, and Yang Run Tai joined the three boys.

In the afternoon, they headed out again, splitting up.

Zhao Xiaoqiang hadn’t bought anything that morning. He liked many items but couldn’t make up his mind.

Old Yang wouldn’t offer him any advice. Both his brother-in-law and wife are indecisive people; it’s fine for women, but men shouldn’t be like this.

Zhao Xiaoqiang saw Jianbin and the others carrying lots of items, while he hadn’t bought anything, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Brother-in-law, I really don’t know what to buy," he said helplessly.

"Hmm. Go with your heart, Xiao Qiang. A man shouldn’t be indecisive," Old Yang sincerely advised his brother-in-law.

"Alright, I understand."

It’s really because he’s reluctant to spend money. Old Yang already told him not to worry because the family has money, but he still couldn’t change him.

In the evening, they went for eight-treasure porridge. "I think it’s not as tasty as the one at home," Shi Jing said disapprovingly.

Yang Run Tai laughed, "Shi Jing, the best thing here isn’t the eight-treasure porridge, but the steamed dumplings. You’ll see when they come."

"Bro Yang, you really know the best foods in the capital.

Have you tried them all?"

Yang Run Tai smiled and nodded, "Yes, almost all of them."

"Bro Yang, your lifestyle is really nice."

"Yes, I think so too. The elders gave us such a superior environment, and we get to enjoy it."

The steamed dumplings arrived, with all six fillings available.

"Feifei, try these; they have crab roe. Very delicious."

Each person got one, and everyone thought the dumplings were wonderful.

"Dad, we should bring the family here tomorrow; my mom and Aunt Yang haven’t tried it yet," Shi Jing said while eating.

"Sure, we’ll all come tomorrow. I’ll make a reservation here."

Wei Kaiyun always agrees with the children’s suggestions, especially when it comes to feeding his wife.

They tried all six steamed dumpling fillings. "You’ve tried them all; which do you want again?"

"Bro Yang, we’re fine like this. We shouldn’t eat too much at night. We’ll come back tomorrow."
