Fu Xueyao: "Then let's talk for a while. I can't sleep."
Lu Xingzhou took Fu Xueyao's waist and moved it downward.
Fu Xueyao's heart trembled, and she immediately put her hand on Lu Xingzhou's hand and said in a coquettish tone: "Lu Xingzhou, I want you to talk to me for a while, not to do bad things."
Lu Xingzhou's voice was low and he smiled in Fu Xueyao's ear: "Wife, what are you thinking about?"
Fu Xueyao said: "You know what I think."
Lu Xingzhou couldn't help but smile, and he sighed softly: "I just want to touch the baby."
Fu Xueyao: "..."
She was stunned for a moment, and her face suddenly became warm.
But luckily it was night and the bedside lamp was turned off, otherwise the blush would have been obvious.
After all, this was Lu Xingzhou's fault. If it hadn't been for him, how could she have thought wrong.
After a while, the deep and magnetic voice sounded again: "Honey, has the baby grown up a lot?"
Lu Xingzhou put his palm against Fu Xueyao's belly, feeling the softness of the palm, and gently caressed her intentionally or unintentionally.
Here is his and Ayao's child, and also his whole world.
Fu Xueyao couldn't help but touch it: "It seems to be a little bigger."
She is now more than three months pregnant, and usually starts to show her pregnancy slowly at this time, but her figure is not much different from before pregnancy.
The waistline might be a little too big, but generally it's not bad. After all, she can still wear the pants she wore before.
Fu Xueyao asked: "Lu Xingzhou, do you like boys or girls?"
For Fu Xueyao, both boys and girls are her treasures. Regardless of their gender, they are the children she expects.
Although I know that at this time, the idea of preferring boys over girls still dominates.
Sometimes it may not be a personal reason, but the influence of the general environment.
Just like her father-in-law and mother-in-law, although they seem to treat their sons and daughters in the same way, they can still feel that they prefer their sons.
But fortunately, this difference is not very obvious, at least to outsiders it is basically invisible.
As for her parents, they fall into the category of favoring girls over boys. There are really very few people in this category.
She is on the winning side, and sometimes she feels too partial.
She thought that if Lu Xingzhou said he liked boys later, she would give him a punch.
There was absolutely no room for favoring sons over daughters in her home.
Lu Xingzhou replied without hesitation: "As long as it is your child, I will love both boys and girls equally."
"but……"
Fu Xueyao: "But what?"
Lu Xingzhou paused and replied, "I think I might prefer girls."
He thought for two seconds and then replied: "I can't say it's a preference. I just feel that if I have a daughter, I will definitely try to treat her very gently. After all, girls and boys are still different."
"A girl needs care. Only if she enjoys enough love at home will she not be easily deceived by some brat when she grows up."
"If I have a daughter, she will be as beautiful and generous as you. I can protect you two."
"If you have a son, I can teach him military boxing and we can protect you together."
Fu Xueyao thought to herself that it could be seen from these words that Lu Xingzhou still wanted a daughter more.
He really didn't have any preference for boys over girls, but he just didn't know if there would be any preference for girls over boys.
Fu Xueyao: "So you still want a daughter?"
Lu Xingzhou: "As for boys, it's fine as long as they're not naughty."
It's okay... This reluctance really shouldn't be too obvious.
Son: Shall I go?
Summer nights are always shorter, and the sky begins to glow with white light at around five o'clock in the morning.
At around seven o'clock, the sun slowly began to emit dazzling light, shining into the room through the slightest gaps in the window sill.
It was already after eight o'clock when Fu Xueyao woke up, and now she was the only one left on the bed.
They didn't know how long they lasted talking last night. Fu Xueyao only remembered that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and then she lost consciousness.
Fu Xueyao sat on the bed for a while, stretched before getting out of bed.
She got up and came to the window sill, opened the curtains, and pushed open the window of the room. Pedestrians walked by from time to time downstairs, and she took a deep breath of fresh air.
At this time, the temperature is slowly getting higher.
Fu Xueyao opened the bedroom door and saw that Lu Xingzhou had squeezed out toothpaste for her, and she unconsciously smiled.
In the kitchen, Lu Xingzhou cooked sweet potato porridge and steamed an egg for him.
The porridge tastes very fragrant, and the whole kitchen is filled with an attractive aroma.
This man is really caring.
I don’t know when he got up, and he even made breakfast for her when he went to work.
Fu Xueyao also noticed that Lu Xingzhou had specially written a note on the kitchen wall and stuck it on it with tape.
The general content was to ask her to have a good breakfast and not have to cook for lunch, but to wait for him to bring food for her after get off work.
Fu Xueyao filled a bowl with porridge and came to the dining table.
The temperature of the porridge is no longer particularly hot, and it can be put into your mouth with a gentle blow.
The taste is more intense when you drink it. The sweet potatoes are stewed so glutinous and pink that they melt immediately when you bite into your mouth.
The eggs also taste good. Although they are just ordinary boiled eggs, they taste particularly good because they are domestically raised.
Fu Xueyao finished her breakfast slowly at home alone.
After finishing breakfast, she cleaned the bowls, chopsticks and porridge pot she had just used, and did the kitchen hygiene again.
In fact, the kitchen was very clean. Fu Xueyao basically just wiped everything with a rag.
Looking at the time, it was only after nine o'clock, and there were still more than two hours before Lu Xingzhou got off work.
She took her usual bookkeeping notebook from the bedroom and calculated her recent expenses on the sofa in the living room.
This account book records all her income and expenses, including the money Lu Xingzhou gave her last time.
At that time, after she agreed with Lu Xingzhou that she would join the army, in addition to giving Lu Xingzhou 300 yuan, she also gave him another 1,200 yuan to buy furniture.
After all, you have to live here for at least a few years, and of course the most important thing is to live comfortably.
The bed, mattress, large wardrobe, small cabinet, curtains, dressing table, table, stools...all in the room are money.
In this era, 1,200 yuan was still very valuable. After buying everything, I still had a few hundred yuan left.
The biggest expense recently is the electrical appliances I bought yesterday.
Sure enough, things are still rare and expensive. In the 21st century, refrigerators and washing machines are household necessities, and the prices are naturally not high. At least most families can afford them.
But in this era, it is really considered a luxury product. The refrigerator, washing machine and electric fan cost nearly 3,000 yuan.
Refrigerators are the most expensive, followed by washing machines.
Today's washing machines are not as convenient as those of later generations, and none are fully automatic. Fu Xueyao bought an ordinary two-cylinder washing machine. After washing the clothes, you need to manually put them in another bucket that can be dehydrated to dry them.
After calculating all the expenses, Fu Xueyao still had about ten thousand items on hand.
There are also several hundred yuan not included in the calculation, which are used for daily expenses.
The turnover of stores in the county is basically stable at 180 to 220 yuan. Two or three days a month, there may be three or three hundred yuan.
Excluding the wages paid to employees, rent, water, electricity, and briquettes, Fu Xueyao's monthly net profit is generally around 6,000 yuan.
To others, this amount of money may be too much, but to Fu Xueyao, she is definitely more than that.
Because just relying on that store in the county seat will only make less and less money.
After all, she is enjoying a wave of food benefits now. When others do better and better, the market competition pressure will be great.
In addition, there will be a lot of room for salary increase in a few years. Now, in the eyes of outsiders, she can still be called a household worth ten thousand yuan, but the money will depreciate if left alone.
Fu Xueyao took the pen and drew again, and finally decided to use 8,000 yuan as her start-up capital here, and save the other 3,000 yuan for emergencies.
However, she still had to discuss this matter with Lu Xingzhou. After all, they were husband and wife, and she couldn't make any decisions. He didn't even have the right to know.
After closing the ledger, Fu Xueyao put her head against the sofa and sighed softly.
The money is still too little. When can she realize her idea of buying a car?
Two months ago, she boasted in front of Lu Xingzhou that she would be able to buy a car soon, but at the current progress, it was still far away.
After a while, she stood up, went to the bathroom, threw the clothes they changed yesterday into the washing machine, poured some washing powder, pressed the button, and soon a rumbling sound began to sound.
This washing powder was given by the manager of the department store. He gave several bags to the two of them. Fu Xueyao felt that she wouldn't need to buy washing powder in half a year.
After washing the clothes, Fu Xueyao planned to go down and walk around alone.
"Dong dong dong." There were knocks on the door.
Fu Xueyao, who was about to hang the clothes, turned around and walked to the door and opened it.
It's the sister-in-law who delivered pancakes yesterday again. She is holding a big watermelon in her hand and a bag hanging on her wrist.
She said enthusiastically: "Sister, I just went to the field to pick a watermelon for you to try."
"It's hot now, so it's most comfortable to eat some watermelon. It's juicy, sweet and thirst-quenching."
"There is also this bag of cucumbers. You can eat them as fruit, or you can use them to stir-fry or stir-fry."
After eating the duck neck and duck rack given by Fu Xueyao yesterday, Yang Chunhua was wondering what to give.
Finally, I went to the vegetable field and picked a watermelon and some cucumbers.
Seeing Mrs. Yang bringing something over again, Fu Xueyao roughly guessed her intention.
Fu Xueyao's eyebrows were curved and her tone was gentle: "We have just moved in, and my sister-in-law is giving us cakes and so many fruits again. I feel a little embarrassed."
Sister-in-law Yang: "Oh, we are all neighbors, why are we talking about this?"
"Yesterday we also ate the duck rack and duck neck you gave us."
Yang Chunhua looked at the person in front of her, and her inner feelings doubled.
In the past, she hated beautiful girls with a little bit of culture the most. They often relied on their appearance and always liked to look down on others.
When she first came here, she wanted to develop neighborly relations and took the dried mushrooms and persimmons she brought from home to share. Unexpectedly, she was disliked.
But Fu Xueyao was completely different. She felt like she was bathing in the spring breeze. Her brows and eyes looked gentle, and her words were pleasant.
Who doesn't like beautiful girls? Only arrogant beautiful girls are annoying.
But the girl in front of her was the complete opposite. Not only was she so beautiful, her words sounded particularly comfortable.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea."
Fu Xueyao was about to take the things from Yang Chunhua's hand.
Yang Chunhua: "Let me take it in for you. It's quite heavy."
Yang Chunhua looked at this girl and felt that this person should be hurt, and her heart softened unconsciously.
Fu Xueyao pointed to the small round table in the living room: "Sister-in-law, you can just put it here."
"Sister-in-law, please sit here for a while, and I'll make you a cup of tea."
Yang Chunhua quickly waved her hand: "No, no, I'll just drink a glass of water. I can't drink that thing."
The tea was very bitter, and the taste was really unpleasant. She still remembered the feeling of almost vomiting when she drank tea for the first time.
Although she knew that Fu Xueyao made tea for her as a guest and wanted to treat her well, she really couldn't drink it.
For Yang Chunhua, drinking tea is worse than drinking cold water.
Fu Xueyao blinked: "Then let me pour you a cup of sour plum soup."
When she came, Fu Xueyao also brought a small amount of raw materials.
She even made herself a drink on the train.
She made a pot of it with a kettle last night, and it was just right to drink the next day.
Yang Chunhua responded: "That's OK."
Compared with Liangbaikai, sour plum soup is naturally more delicious. She likes the sweet and sour taste.
Fu Xueyao poured two cups of sour plum soup from the kitchen and found Yang Chunhua still standing in the living room, looking a little embarrassed.
Fu Xueyao: "Sister-in-law, why don't you sit down? Just sit on that sofa. It's soft and comfortable."
Yang Chunhua smiled and patted her clothes sheepishly and said, "I just came back from the vegetable field, and my clothes are stained with a lot of dust. I'm afraid that your sofa will be stained."
"I'd better stand for a while. It'll be fine if I stand for a while."
Fu Xueyao: "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? The biggest use of this sofa is to sit on it. With one more person sitting on it, its usefulness will increase."
"Besides, you are the guest I invited in. There is no reason for a guest to stand. Sister-in-law, just listen to me and sit down."
After Fu Xueyao's repeated persuasion, Yang Chunhua finally sat down, but instead of sitting on the sofa, she sat on an armchair.
It was better than standing. Fu Xueyao also took a stool and sat face to face with Yang Chunhua.
"Sister, your sour plum soup is so delicious." Yang Chunhua took two more sips.
"I didn't expect you to be so good at your craftsmanship."
It turns out that sour plum soup can taste like this, and it is much better than the sour plum soup she drank before.
Fu Xueyao smiled: "Sister-in-law, if you think it tastes good, I still have some ingredients here. You can take it home and brew it later."
