Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 756: Chapter 750: Giving Guidance

So, no matter what kind of person you are or what kind of days and life you’re facing, you should always maintain an optimistic attitude. Only if we keep a calm heart every day can we live happily.

“An’an, are you alright? Why are you crying?” Li Zhao came over as soon as he received the news from Mrs. Xu, and was shocked to see An Hao wiping away tears.

“I’m fine, let’s go home.” An Hao said somewhat embarrassed, not wanting to admit that she was moved by Li Zhao’s actions, which he always carried out without consulting her first. It was hard for her to understand him sometimes.

“Are you sure you’re okay?” Li Zhao glanced at An Hao, then looked over at Qin Xue and Chu Xiaoqiao. Only when he saw Qin Xue shake her head was he slightly reassured.

“It’s fine. Here, hold my nephew for a while, I’m tired of holding him.” An Hao quickly handed the baby to Li Zhao to avoid further questioning.

“Um, An’an, I don’t know how to hold a baby.” Li Zhao stiffly held the baby in his arms, unsure of what to do.

...
“As long as you hold him securely and don’t drop him, that’s all that matters. Just hold him whatever way feels comfortable to you. As long as he doesn’t cry, he’s probably comfortable too.” An Hao wasn’t an expert at holding babies either, but she had managed to figure it out, so she thought it was quite simple.

Li Zhao wanted to cry. The baby was so soft and fragile; it wasn’t nearly as simple as his wife had made it seem.

“Mr. Li, let me hold the baby and you take this.” Qin Xue said with a smile, unable to watch any further. She appreciated her own husband’s skill with babies even more now.

“Alright, sister-in-law. But, can you please stop calling me ‘Mr. Li’? Just call me ‘Zhaozi’ or ‘Second brother.’ If that doesn’t work, just call me by my name, Li Zhao.” Li Zhao really wished she’d stop referring to him as such, as it made him feel like crying. If his older brother heard her calling him that, he’d have some real trouble on his hands.

“It’s just a title, it doesn’t matter.” At first, when Qin Xue met Li Zhao, she always called him by that name, sometimes ‘Mr. Li’ and sometimes ‘Li Zhao.’ She had become used to it, so she didn’t change her way of addressing him like Chu Molin did.

“Even if it’s just a title, it’s not polite to call me something that doesn’t fit my position. So, please change the way you address me.” Li Zhao was afraid that if he didn’t correct her now, he’d only end up getting beaten up in front of his older brother later.

“Alright, from now on, I’ll call you ‘Zhaozi’.” Qin Xue figured that since everyone else addressed him that way, she might as well join in.

“Great. Sister-in-law, please take the baby before he falls.” As Li Zhao held the baby, he hardly dared to tighten his grip for fear of hurting the child.

“What are you going to do when An Hao gives birth?” After handing over her things to An Hao, Qin Xue took baby Yu Ze from Li Zhao’s arms.

“I’ll practice with a pillow at home.” Li Zhao didn’t mind admitting his shortcomings and replied without hesitating.

“What ambition.” An Hao teased him with a laugh.

“Ambitious or not, I’m going to be the father of the baby in your belly. Shouldn’t I learn how to hold a child? Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to hold our own baby, and that’s just impossible.” Li Zhao quickly grabbed the stuff from his wife’s hand and then took her hand to head home.

Chu Xiaoqiao looked at her little nephew in her arms. She had been holding him the entire time without having a break, but he had been a good boy and hadn’t cried or made a fuss. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t have been able to cope.

“Xiaoqiao, my granddaughter-in-law, the great-grandson!” Just as they were approaching the Lis’ doorstep, they heard Miao Qingqing’s voice.

“Uhm, Grandma, what are you doing here?” Chu Xiaoqiao looked back and asked with a somewhat overwhelmed expression.
