Chapter 1352 - 1354: Hiding Among the Crowd_1
This left Ye Zi’an, who had wanted to spend quality time at home with his family, utterly speechless.
However, there was a piece of news that delighted him, though his joy was tinged with a touch of sadness.
It turns out that in the last few days, he had Uncle Cai come over for a visit. Uncle Cai’s medical skills had greatly improved over the past two years, and he confirmed that Yang Chuxia was carrying twins again.
Upon hearing this news, Ye Zi’an got excited. With a fifty percent chance, surely one of them would be a girl, right?
But then the problem arose. These twins were to be born early, around seven or eight months. Now, at five months into the pregnancy, the due date was drawing near in May. Could she endure the journey with a big belly?
However, if Xiaxia didn’t accompany him, wouldn’t it be like when Lele and Yangyang were born? Wouldn’t he only see them after their first full month?
This problem troubled him for days, and he lost interest in meeting anyone who came to visit.
Until the Commandery Princess Dongyang arrived.
"Madam, there is a visitor outside! It’s the Commandery Princess Dongyang!" Sister-in-law Li came running ahead to announce, while Brother Li followed, letting the visitor in.
"Quick, invite her in."
As she spoke, Mingcui was helping Yang Chuxia out.
They had not gone far when they ran into Commandery Princess Dongyang, Mu Shaoling.
"Oh, Xiaxia, you’re pregnant too?" Dongyang was also sporting a big belly, which looked about the same size as Yang Chuxia’s.
"Yes, you must be about seven months along, right?" Yang Chuxia said with a smiling face.
"Exactly seven months. What about you?" said the Commandery Princess Dongyang, clearly excited at the sight of Yang Chuxia. If it weren’t for the fact that hugging wasn’t good for pregnant women, she would have embraced her right then and there.
"Me? I’m five months along."
"Five months? How come your belly is so big for just five months??" The Commandery Princess looked at Yang Chuxia’s, then at her own, feeling they were about the same.
Mu Shaoling, who had been neglected until now, chuckled, "Another set of twins?"
"Of course!" Yang Chuxia chuckled, "Brother An is always hoping for one to be a girl."
Upon hearing this, Mu Shaoling’s face expressed disdain, "As if nobody else has daughters." Then Yang Chuxia sharply noticed Commandery Princess Dongyang’s complexion changing and irritably turned to glare at Mu Shaoling.
Mu Shaoling realized he had misspoken and awkwardly touched his nose.
Meanwhile, a person hidden among the crowd unwittingly scoffed several times. He hadn’t thought Mu Shaoling was so silly before. How could he seem sillier the older he got?
"Uncle Shaoling, Aunt Dongyang!"
As the group was heading towards the main hall, Yangyang came running out energetically, with the leisurely Lele following behind.
Seeing the boy, Mu Shaoling instinctively touched his face.
"Yangyang, you still remember your uncle?" asked Mu Shaoling with a chuckle, as Yangyang approached.
When Yangyang saw him covering his face, he blinked and said, "Uncle, I won’t kiss you anymore, so why are you covering your face?"
Mu Shaoling was embarrassed and was about to say something when Yangyang continued, "My pretty dad said boys can’t kiss men, because people would say it’s, it’s, what was it again about the sun?"
"Stupid, it’s the Long Yang Jun style!" Lele reminded him.
"Right, the Long Yang Jun style." Then Yangyang sighed and said, "So even though you’re very pretty, uncle, I won’t kiss you anymore."
Mu Shaoling hadn’t even had the chance to feel relieved when he saw Yangyang cunningly smile again, "But I can kiss Aunt Dongyang."
"You little rascal, go kiss your mother; your Aunt Dongyang is my wife, you can’t kiss her!!"
