"Mom." Huo Yunxi handed the things in his hands to the servant at home and said to Liu Yan.
They all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the old lady liked Duoduo so much.
Xia Luobing looked at the two of them, with a slight smile on her lips, and stood beside Huo Yunqi without speaking.
At this moment, she didn't know what to call the old lady.
"Sit down first, we'll eat soon." A flash of discomfort flashed through Liu Yan's eyes, but luckily Duoduo was by her side. She stretched out her hand to hold the little girl in her arms, hung a jade pendant in her hand around her neck, and said lovingly , "This is a gift from grandma to Duoduo."
Duoduo pulled the jade pendant with her chubby hands, blinked her eyes like butterfly wings, and kissed Liu Yan on the face: "Thank you, grandma."
"Be good, Duoduo is so good." Liu Yanxiao's eyes narrowed into a straight line.
The atmosphere in the living room is harmonious, with a long-lost joy.
After a while, Liu Yan looked at Xia Luobing, her voice a little stiff: "Follow me.
Huo Yunqi frowned and was about to speak when he felt Xia Luobing pinch his palm. When he hesitated, Xia Luobing had already stood up and followed Liu Yan to the room upstairs.
"Brother, don't worry, mom is no match for my sister-in-law," Huo Yunxi joked, "Maybe there will be a surprise."
Ye Shaochen also smiled and said: "The old lady likes Duoduo so much, she will also like Luo Bing."
Obviously, after this incident, the old lady's attitude towards Xia Luobing changed completely.
Xia Luobing sat on the sofa opposite her and said calmly: "What do you want to say to me?"
Although Huo Yunxi repeatedly assured that the old lady was really thinking about it, she still had to be cautious because the previous incident was deeply rooted.
Ever since she entered the gate, her heart had been tense.
Liu Yan glanced at Xia Luobing, stood up and went to the bedside, opened the bedside table and took out a box, rubbed it with her fingers for a while, then turned and put it in front of Xia Luobing: "Open it."
Xia Luobing looked confused, but still opened the box as Liu Yan ordered. Lying quietly on the black velvet was a mutton-fat jade bracelet. The bracelet gave off a warm light under the soft light, making it visible. Just couldn't help but like it.
"Grandma Yunqi gave this to me." Liu Yan sat down and said slowly, "Now I'll give it to you."
Xia Luobing was startled and looked up at Liu Yan: "You..."
Does this mean you accept her
Although she had been comforting herself that as long as Huo Yunqi had a place for her in his heart, other things were not important, but now hearing Liu Yan say this, her heart was still filled with waves.
"I... am not used to apologizing." Liu Yan's voice was a little stiff, and she paused before continuing, "Let's all move back in."
Yun Xi was right. Living alone in such a large villa would be extremely empty.
Xia Luobing closed the jewelry box, her eyes filled with moisture. She stretched out her hand to block Liu Yan's arm and whispered, "Are we reconciled?"
Liu Yan's eyes turned red, she glared at Xia Luobing and said angrily: "I've given you the family heirloom, why don't you call me mom?"
"Mom." Xia Luobing said softly, reaching out and hugging Liu Yan, her voice trembling, "It's been a long time since I called out this word."
Liu Yan reached out and patted Xia Luobing's back: "Move back here in the future."
Xia Luobing said "hmm", finally calmed down, and said awkwardly: "Since I had this child in my belly, I have had some mood swings. Don't mind."
Liu Yan laughed and looked at Xia Luobing again. She was so pleasing to the eye.
"How many months is the child? Have you had regular prenatal check-ups?" Liu Yan looked at Xia Luobing's belly lovingly, "You must pay attention to your diet."
Mentioning the child, Xia Luobing smiled: "It's been three months and the doctor said the child is fine."
It seemed like there had never been any estrangement or quarrel between the two of them. They chatted about things about pregnant women, and time slipped through their fingers unknowingly.
"Mom, sister-in-law, I'm going to starve to death." Huo Yunxi opened the door and saw the two of them chatting happily, and said with a smile, "Aren't you ready to eat?"
Liu Yan glanced at Huo Yunxi angrily, took Xia Luobing's hand and said, "What do you think of the soup in the kitchen? Let your sister-in-law serve it first."
Sister-in-law
Huo Yunxi's eyes were crooked. Just now she was worried that the two of them would struggle upstairs, but now it seemed that she was overthinking it.
"Okay, sister-in-law." Huo Yunxi winked at Xia Luobing, then turned and went downstairs to report the battle situation to the two people below.
"Everything is OK!" Huo Yunxi gestured to the two men and entered the kitchen happily, "Sister-in-law Zhang, my sister-in-law makes soup."
When Liu Yan and Xia Luobing came downstairs, the dining table was already filled with food, and the family was sitting together, indescribably lively.
"I want to sit next to grandma." Duoduo twisted her body towards Liu Yan and said with her face raised, "grandma."
Liu Yan's heart suddenly softened. She bent down to pick up the little human and put it on the chair next to her: "Okay, Duoduo will sit next to grandma."
Xia Luobing looked at her daughter with a smile on her face, feeling particularly happy and at ease.
Needless to say, the meal was a joy to eat.
After dinner, Duoduo took the initiative to stay and sleep with Liu Yan, while Huo Yunqi and Xia Luobing had to go back to pack their things and move in together in the next few days.
After dinner, Huo Yunqi drove Xia Luobing back. The atmosphere in the car was peaceful and peaceful.
"Bingbing, thank you for your hard work." Huo Yunqi held Xia Luobing's hand and smiled.
It is not easy for two people to get to where they are today step by step.
Xia Luobing shook his head and said with a smile: "It's all in the past. No matter how hard it is, it's a thing of the past."
As long as the result is good, it doesn't matter if the process is harder, right
Thinking of this, Xia Luobing's smile became even brighter. She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had relaxed like this.
It's like someone who has been staring at the dark clouds for a long time, suddenly sees the bright sunshine, and feels inexplicably relieved.
Because Xia Luobing was pregnant, she took a long leave from the Public Security Bureau and waited until the baby was born before going to work, so she had a lot of time to stay at home every day.
Before, Liu Yan went out for shopping and beauty treatments every day, but now she was staring at Xia Luobing every step of the way.
"Bingbing, eat fruit." Liu Yan put a plate of cut fruit on the table and said with a smile, "Eating more fruit is good for your child's skin."
Xia Luobing's eyes twitched: "Mom, I've eaten a lot of fruit today."
She was really worried that her child's skin would be so good that it would become transparent.
"If you don't want to eat fruit, just drink milk." Liu Yan stood up and went to heat the milk.
Now she is focused on taking good care of Xia Luobing and the child in her belly, and she is getting more and more energetic.
However, this was very painful for Xia Luobing.
"Mom, please stop being busy, sit down and rest for a while." Xia Luobing quickly grabbed Liu Yan's arm and said with a dry smile, "The doctor said that eating too much cannot be absorbed by the fetus and is not good for the body."
Liu Yan didn't like her before, and she was unhappy.
She was so enthusiastic now that she was even more frightened. If this rate continued, would she turn into a little fat pig
Thinking about her chubby self, she couldn't help but feel waves of fear.
"Okay." Liu Yan thought it made sense. She sat down next to Xia Luobing and said with a smile, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you eat more."
Seeing Xia Luobing's belly getting bigger day by day, Liu Yan smiled more and more on her face.
"Mom, the weather is nice today. Let me accompany you for a physical examination." Xia Luobing said, "Didn't you say that your sleep quality was not good a few days ago? I will go to the hospital for a physical examination."
Liu Yan waved her hand: "No, I can't sleep well because I have something on my mind."
She had been thinking about the name of the child after he was born. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. It would be strange if she could sleep well.
Knowing the reason for Liu Yan's insomnia, Xia Luobing's mouth twitched with dark lines on her face, but in order to match the old lady's interest, she still asked: "What names have you thought of?"
"There are many, both boys and girls." Seeing that Xia Luobing was a little nervous, Liu Yan patted her hand and said with a smile, "Boys and girls, I like them all."
Ever since Huo Yunqi and Xia Luobing moved back, the house has been very lively. Her mood is getting better day by day, and many things that she couldn't figure out at first have been put aside now.
As for whether the child in Xia Luobing's belly was a boy or a girl, she didn't think it was that important.
Xia Luobing was startled when she heard this, and then laughed. Compared with before, the old lady's mentality has really changed 180 degrees. Sometimes, she is not used to it, and she is not sure whether she is dreaming. .
"The weather is very nice today, shall we go for a walk?" Xia Luobing said with a smile, with a hint of coquettishness in her voice.
Before, she had never thought that one day, she would talk to Liu Yan so intimately.
"Summer will be over soon. I went to pick up Duoduo to buy autumn clothes." Liu Yan's eyes lit up, "Today is Friday and she doesn't have class in the afternoon."
The two hit it off immediately, and after lunch they went to the Hobby Bar to pick up the little girl.
"Mom, actually you don't have to come to pick her up every day." Xia Luobing looked at the bustling people outside the interest class and said with a smile, "Just ask the driver to come."
Liu Yan untied her safety bag and went to push the car door. When she heard Xia Luobing's words, she smiled and said, "You don't understand."
Seeing the old lady heading to the kindergarten entrance in high spirits, Xia Luobing was stunned, smiling helplessly, but she was extremely happy in her heart.
"Mrs. Huo, here to pick up your granddaughter again." An acquaintance greeted Liu Yan, "Your Duoduo is really cute."
Liu Yan's eyes became straight, and she said with a smile: "Duoduo is very well-behaved and very sensible at home..."
Xia Luobing rolled down the window and heard clearly the conversation between Liu Yan and those people. Looking at Liu Yan's proud smile, she immediately understood why the old lady insisted on picking up her children every day.
It turns out that I like to be held up by others.
"Mommy!" Duoduo climbed into the car and said with a smile, "Grandma said she would take Duoduo to buy beautiful clothes."
Seeing that both of them had fastened their seat belts, Xia Luobing started the car and said with a smile, "Then did you thank grandma?"
"Thank you, grandma." Duoduo raised her little face and smiled like a flower, "I even kissed grandma."
Seeing the satisfied look on the old lady's face, Xia Luobing smiled. Obviously, the little guy's ability to win over people's hearts was much higher than hers.
Because it was a Friday, there were many people in the mall. Liu Yan held Duoduo's hands tightly, for fear of accidentally losing her precious granddaughter.
"Mom, do you think this dress is okay?" Xia Luobing picked up a Chinese-style coat and compared it to Liu Yan, "I think it will look good on you."
Liu Yan glanced at Xia Luobing angrily: "How old am I? I will be laughed at if I wear such bright clothes."
This time, without waiting for Xia Luobing to speak, Duoduo tugged on Liu Yan's clothes: "Grandma will look beautiful in it."
The precious granddaughter had spoken, but Liu Yan didn't have any objections. She took the clothes and went to the fitting room. Xia Luobing held her daughter's hand with one hand and looked at the clothes. Her eyes fell on the mirror, her eyes tightened, and she suddenly turned around: "Zhuang Xinran?"
Compared with a few years ago, Zhuang Xinran has not changed much, except that his eyes have become deeper and harder to understand.
The only thing that hasn't changed is that her hostility to Xia Luobing is even worse than before.
"Long time no see." Zhuang Xinran looked at Xia Luobing, his eyes moved from her belly to Duoduo's face, and he reached out to touch Duoduo's face, "Is your child so old?"
Duoduo instinctively ducked behind Xia Luobing, and Zhuang Xinran's outstretched hand fell into the air. However, there was no sign of anger on her face. Instead, she smiled and said, "It's very much like you."
She was disgusted when she saw it.
