Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 2056: Chapter 2057: Heartache

Gong Juechen laughed twice before saying, ”Actually, I also think it’s two. Forget it, let’s not talk about how many. In about a month, we should know how many there are. There’s no point in guessing now.”

Ye Zhi laughed and gave him a push, ”Weren’t you the one who started talking about it? Saying five.”

Gong Juechen quickly begged for mercy, asking Ye Zhi to let him go. Ye Zhi laughed again and gave him another light push, and the topic was finally dropped.

Just as Ye Zhi let Gong Juechen go, An Yiqing came into the courtyard with Gong Le, and both Gong Juechen and Ye Zhi hurried over.

”Didn’t we tell you to sit properly at our place? Why are you here? What if you bump into something?” Ye Zhi and Gong Juechen both looked extremely worried.

Gong Le giggled, ”Mom and Dad, I live here. Besides, it’s just pregnancy. It’s not like I can’t walk.”

Ye Zhi said, ”Your eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, and fourth brother’s wife are also pregnant. Your mother-in-law might not be able to care for all of you, so it’s better for you to temporarily stay with us. That way, your dad and I will be at ease, and your parents-in-law can also relax a bit.”

Gong Le said, ”Mom, your house is so close to here. There’s no need for me to stay with you. If you truly aren’t at ease, you can come over every day to take care of me.”

An Jing laughed, ”Ye Zi, let Lele stay here. If my husband and I can’t manage, don’t their husbands also exist? It’s not just my husband and me. Besides, the children’s godparents live right next door. Even if you aren’t nearby, you don’t have to worry about Lele not being well taken care of.”

Ye Zhi said, ”It’s not that I’m worried Lele won’t be well taken care of. It’s just that, as a mother, my daughter is pregnant, and I only have one daughter, so I want to take care of her myself.”

An Jing smiled understandingly and said, ”Then you can come over every day to care with me. We’re so close, it’s just a short walk away.”

Gong Le chimed in, ”Yes, Mom.”

Gong Juechen said, ”Zhizhi, let it be. Lele can decide. It’s just a few steps away. No need to make Lele change rooms—it would be troublesome.”

Ye Zhi nodded, ”That’s true.” Then she smiled, ”Alright then, I’ll come over daily. Don’t find me annoying then.”

An Jing laughed, ”When have I ever found you annoying? But if Lele finds you nagging and annoying, I can’t do anything about that.”

Ye Zhi laughed, ”Even if she finds me annoying, I’m still her mom.”

Gong Le hugged Ye Zhi’s arm and said endearingly, ”I won’t find you annoying, Mom.”

Ye Zhi smiled helplessly and gently poked Gong Le’s head with her finger, ”You’re about to become a mom yourself—be a bit more mature.”

Su Yixing laughed, ”Lele’s uniqueness shows in this way. I think it’s great. I wish Qingyi were a bit more lively, but he just can’t be.”

Huo Qingyi’s expression didn’t change, but his heart twisted painfully. He just liked Gong Le; it’s just...

An Jing smiled again and urged, ”Everyone, go inside and sit. Why are we standing in the courtyard? Today’s such a great day, we have to make red eggs to celebrate properly. Jing’er, Star, Qinger, Yun Er, take good care of your wives. They’re pregnant now, and you must look after them well. If anything happens, I’ll be the first to not forgive you. Okay, sweetheart, go with Mom and Dad to make red eggs.”
