Chapter 565: Drunkenness
"I don’t know yet, you know it too, Second Uncle and the others can’t make decisions for Second Sister, it’s still up to Second Sister and them. But I see that the two of them have a good relationship, the young man is quite considerate, and they seem well-matched." Jiang Yuxiu said with a smile.
"That’s true." Xu Mumu’s mouth twitched. Listening to Jiang Yuxiu, Xu Mumu felt like she was missing out a lot. If she had known, she would have thick-facedly brought her family along to see. Such a festive occasion, she actually missed it, and Xu Mumu beat her chest and stamped her feet.
"I’ll go to Second Uncle’s house in a few days to check things out, take Doudou out for a walk more." Xu Mumu said earnestly. She wanted to see what Xia Chengyuan was really like - he was the devoted male character in the book, with quite a significant role.
"Sure, I’ll go take a look, ask Second Sister when she’s getting married, so I can prepare a gift for her early." Jiang Yuxiu nodded, the Xu Family had a lot of cousins, but these people weren’t annoying, especially these few sisters, whom Jiang Yuxiu quite liked.
"Well, Xu Xue will definitely be happy." Xu Mumu’s mouth twitched, this sister-in-law was really enthusiastic.
"I don’t even know what Second Sister likes, next time I go, I’ll ask her." Jiang Yuxiu was even more eager. There was only one male cousin in the family, and he was still studying, not having either of the two partners, it’s still better on the maternal side here. There are more people here, so lively, and with Doudou, it’s simply too joyful.
After celebrating the New Year, we return to our own home again. This year, with more people, the house is very lively, Madam Chen and the others prepared an extraordinary amount of things, Xu Mumu didn’t know what to say. Why does everyone like to prepare so many New Year goods?
Still, celebrating New Year together is very joyful. To say who is happiest, it’s probably Fengfeng. Normally restrained by Li Caixia from indulging in snacks, he didn’t eat much during regular days. Now with New Year, he can eat freely, with all kinds of delicious meats, and various seeds, candies, fruits and such. This year, Fourth Uncle’s house produced quite a few apples, and they gave a good amount to the family.
"Fengfeng, wipe your face, there’s a lot of oil around your mouth." Xu Mumu, holding Doudou, fed him his milk bottle while watching Fengfeng happily gnawing on a chicken wing, but his hands and face were all oily.
"Let me do it, there’s hot water here. Fengfeng, come over, I’ll wash your face." Jiang Yuxiu brought over a basin of warm water, and gently waved over to Fengfeng.
"Sis-in-law, I’m not done eating yet." Fengfeng looked at the almost finished chicken wing, reluctant to throw it away, hardly getting a chance to eat such delicacies usually.
"Alright, I’ll wipe your face after you’re done eating." Jiang Yuxiu nodded and washed herself a bit first.
"You like kids so much, why don’t you two have a couple yourselves?" Li Caixia was still sitting at the dining table, not having finished eating, glanced calmly at her daughter-in-law and said.
The son is old enough now, it’s time for continuation, yet these two are just graduating in another half-year, Li Caixia feels resentful waiting, eager to hold grandkids.
Currently, the grandchild is always with her daughter, soon to move house, with Professor Song and Professor Jian competing to babysit the grandchild, her chances are even slimmer, just thinking about it brings resentment.
Now she’s eagerly hoping they graduate soon, hurry up and have a grandchild for her, then with an age close to Doudou, the two children would have companionship.
Jiang Yuxiu blushed slightly, didn’t reply, she understood her mother-in-law’s intentions, but still studying now, another six months, this semester needing the graduation thesis, she wasn’t planning to handle such affairs while pregnant.
Xu Minghui also heard, but now isn’t the time, he’s still very busy, if Jiang Yuxiu were pregnant, he might not have enough time to care for his own wife. It’s better to wait until after graduation, it’s not too late.
Xu Mumu especially enjoyed the comfortable days of New Year’s.
"Mumu, I’m so hot." Being pulled to drink a lot by the in-laws in the evening, Yin Yang was a bit dizzy now, holding onto Xu Mumu without letting go.
The liquor brought back by Xu Hai and the others were all spirits and such, with quite a kick, initially not feeling much, but now starting to feel a bit uncomfortable.
"I’ll ask Madam Chun to cook some hangover soup for you." Xu Mumu, noticing Yin Yang’s red face, and feeling a bit concerned, said. Seeing him like this, never in the future would she let him drink much outside, drinking too much leads to trouble, in case some other woman takes advantage.
"No need, Mumu, I want you, you haven’t been close to me for ages." Yin Yang said somewhat bashfully, considering Xu Mumu’s condition, ever since the baby was born, the two rarely had such intimate moments.
Xu Mumu’s face reddened slightly, this guy was using the alcohol to thick-skinnedly say this.
This was the man she loved, what could she do? Ultimately, she gave in to him.
However, after drinking, Xu Mumu felt her waist couldn’t handle it anymore. This person had gone without for too long and became too terrifying. Alcohol still wasn’t good after all, leading to so much trouble. In the past, Yin Yang was always gentle with her about such matters, but drinking turned him into quite another person.
When Xu Mumu woke up, it was due to the crying of the little fellow.
"Why is Doudou crying? Ouch." Xu Mumu struggled to get up, Yin Yang was right beside her, causing some soreness in her waist when she moved.
"It’s okay, Doudou is being watched by Grandfather and them, he won’t have any problems. He just woke up a while ago. When Grandfather washed his face, it hurt him, now he’s crying." Yin Yang looked lovingly at his little wife.
"I’ll go check on him." Xu Mumu rubbed her waist, glared viciously at Yin Yang, blaming him for the mess he created. She had said no, yet he kept pulling her, now she finally understood those books stating how exhausting a lively bustle could be, if not for her good constitution, she wouldn’t have been able to get up today.
"Sweetheart, are you okay? Why don’t you sleep a bit more? Grandfather and they are watching the child, nothing will happen." Yin Yang focused on his little wife’s condition more, the crying outside had already begun to lessen, naturally he cared about his wife’s body more, having overdone things last night.
"I’m fine." Those words, Xu Mumu practically uttered through gritted teeth.
After dressing, she went outside, the little one had already been coaxed by Professor Song and the others, Professor Jian was shaking a rattle in front of the little one, who still had tears in the eyes but was already smiling.
"Really clumsy, next time let me wash Doudou’s face. Made little Doudou hurt." Professor Jian said, feeling heartache, carefully wiping the tears from the little one’s face.
"Next time I’ll be more careful, Doudou’s already stopped crying." Professor Song recognized his mistake, but he still wanted to care for Doudou personally.
