Chapter 431: Chapter 431: Mysterious Matter

“…You’re just looking like that, can you tell how many months it’s been?”

Liu Sisi looked thoroughly surprised.

Guihua also appeared somewhat unsure: “Even though I can’t, your Brother Zhang surely can.” While saying this, she promptly called for Zhang Peng. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Zhang Peng was obviously splitting firewood in the backyard, his head speckled with wood chips. He looked up to see Liu Sisi and her mother, and immediately called out to them.

“Oh! Is my sister-in-law here?”

As he spoke, he casually washed his hands: “The ground is icy outside, be careful when you come and go. It’s best to walk slowly and steadily.”

“Alright, stop nagging!”

Guihua rolled her eyes at him, and quickly pointed at Liu Sisi’s stomach: “Zhang Peng, take a look at Sisi’s belly, isn’t it more than four months? She’s clearly showing now.”

“This is easy to determine, let me feel your pulse, it will tell me everything I need to know.”

Zhang Peng casually swept his glance across, picked up a towel and carefully dried his hands, only then did he sit down on a chair.

He covered her wrist with the towel and felt her pulse carefully.

A moment later, he let go: “Sister-in-law, this fetus has settled now. However, even so, you should rest more and move less. You must be cared for thoroughly. There was this case of Ms. Qiao….”

Zhang Peng cut himself off halfway through the sentence.

Guihua’s face changed abruptly, she rushed forward and twisted Zhang Peng’s arm hard. Zhang Peng cried out in pain.

She hastily changed the topic: “Sisi, don’t mind what your Brother Zhang said, he never thinks before he speaks, don’t take it to heart.”

“It’s okay, Sister Guihua, I know Brother Zhang is concerned for me.”

Unexpectedly, Liu Sisi laughed: “By the way, Brother Zhang, how many months pregnant am I now? What should I pay attention to recently?”

Zhang Peng was a bit embarrassed for speaking out of turn, but when Liu Sisi asked he quickly smiled: “Indeed, it’s been more than four months. You don’t need to worry too much, during the last check-up, your pulse was weak, but as I felt your pulse this time, this fetus is exceptionally robust, be at ease.”

In Liu Sisi’s mind, the feeling of the warm current entering her lower abdomen in her dream resurfaced. Could this be the reason why this fetus was so…

“Oh my! It’s really good that there’s nothing wrong now! This crow-mouthed Brother Zhang is always saying that your body is too weak, afraid that something might happen. My heart was always fluctuating with worry. Now that you’re over this hurdle, I can finally stop worrying.” Guihua patted her chest repeatedly.

Liu Sisi finally realized: “So you knew about this long ago, Sister Guihua? You… didn’t even tell me!”

Guihua chuckled a little awkwardly: “Sisi, it’s not that I didn’t want to tell you, it’s just that telling you earlier would have just made you more anxious and that wouldn’t be good for your baby. It’s better to let nature take its course. Don’t you see, you’re doing great now, aren’t you?”

With that said, Liu Sisi couldn’t help but feel elated!

The group continued chatting and laughing together.

It wasn’t until noon that Liu Sisi thought about leaving, however she couldn’t resist Guihua’s enthusiastic persuasions and decided to stay for lunch at Guihua’s place.

The dishes Guihua prepared were different from those cooked by Liu Sisi.

Upon learning that Liu Sisi hadn’t had corn for a long time, Guihua used cornmeal to make steamed buns, accompanied with spring rolls, which tasted really good.

Recently, Liu Sisi’s appetite had obviously grown. She ate three steamed buns, leaving her belly full.

Zhang Yun, seated next to her, was taking care of YingEr, looking like he couldn’t bear not to feed YingEr himself, which was a source of great amusement for everyone.

After the meal, Guihua began to knit, and Liu Sisi also stepped forward to help, the two of them chatting about things from all over. However, Liu Sisi did not tell Guihua about what happened yesterday. It’s not that she didn’t want to say it, but rather, she simply couldn’t bring herself to. Di Yelei came in the evening to take them both home.

Zhang Peng pulled him aside, and the two of them talked for quite a while before they left.

It was obvious that Di Yelei was extraordinarily happy.

“Sisi, Zhang Peng said that your pregnancy is stable now. As long as you are careful when you walk and go about your daily tasks, there will be no more problems!”

Di Yelei’s eyes crinkled in a smile.

“I know, Brother Zhang already told me. Look how happy you are about it!”

Liu Sisi shot him a glance.

“Hehehe… Of course I’m happy! By tonight, you’ll see why!” Di Yelei said, a mysterious look on his face.

Liu Sisi turned her head curiously to look at him: “What exactly is going on? Can’t you say it now? Why do you have to make it so mysterious?”

The more she wanted to hear it, the more Di Yelei refused to tell her, a complacent look on his face.

“Wait until tonight, and I’ll tell you slowly!”

Liu Sisi was not happy about this, glowering at him angrily. This man was steadfast in his refusal to say what was going on, through dinner and the subsequent clean-up, he said nothing.

Only when they lay down to sleep that night did Liu Sisi understand why he had been so smug.

Liu Zhi’er had been gone for many days, and there’s still no news of him. Da Mao, however, was a very obedient child. But it seemed like he treated Liu Sisi as his own mother. Every night, despite curling up and sleeping on the inside, he always preferred Liu Sisi to soothe him to sleep.

Tonight was no exception.

Liu Sisi was humming a lullaby softly to coax him to sleep.

Da Mao, having apparently napped too much during the day, was having trouble falling asleep at night. He would open his eyes every now and then to see if Liu Sisis was still there, causing her arm to go numb, but he still hadn’t fallen asleep.

“What’s wrong with him? Why hasn’t he fallen asleep yet?”

Di Yelei entered the room, straightening out his own clothes. In the middle of his sentence, he had already removed his waistband and casually flung it to the side, before taking a seat on the edge of the bed.

“He should be asleep soon, right? Perhaps he slept too long in the day.”

Liu Sisi casually turned over, propping up her somewhat heavy body to turn around. Looking at Di Yelei under the candlelight, she spoke softly, “Brother Zhang said the baby is more than four months old. I calculated it, and if it’s more than four months, it must’ve been conceived the night of our first time.”

Di Yelei’s hands stilled for a moment on his clothes, before continuing to remove his coat.

“It doesn’t matter when the baby was conceived, what’s important is that you’ve carried it for four months now, and both the mother and child are safe. That’s what’s right.”

As he spoke, he pulled off his trousers, then lifted the covers and leaned in.

“Sisi, weren’t you curious about what Zhang Peng told me this afternoon? Come a little closer, and I’ll tell you.”

Di Yelei had a cunning smile on his face.

Liu Sisi squinted her eyes at him, yet her curiosity won over: “What are you keeping so secret? What is it you want to say?”

Unexpectedly, Di Yelei gave a slight pull, directly drawing Liu Sisi onto himself. He held her close, planting a heavy kiss on her.

“Alright! I’ll tell you. Zhang Peng told me that your body has recovered well. We can … hehehe!”
