Chapter 899: Chapter 899: Winning by Numbers
It wasn’t long before the eldest aunt came out of the house and approached Luo Qiao, "Qiaoqiao, did I hear from your grandma that you’re pregnant?"
Luo Qiao nodded, "Yes, just reached three months."
The two sisters-in-law, upon hearing this, also came over. The elder sister-in-law asked, "Did you suffer from severe morning sickness before?"
Luo Qiao, touching her belly, said, "It was quite bad in the morning when I got up, but it’s much better now."
When Luo family members heard this good news, they all came over to offer warm wishes, treating her almost like a precious panda.
The meal was served, and Luo Daoren instructed Luo Siyuan to bring out the drinks from the storeroom for everyone, "Today is a good day, let’s all raise our glasses and have a toast. First, our Xuyuan and Qiaoqiao are both pursuing their master’s— we haven’t had a chance to sit down and have a meal together because you both have been busy.
Moreover, it’s a big joy that Qiaoqiao is pregnant. Let’s take this opportunity to congratulate them. I hope our Luo family continues to flourish, that everyone finds success in work and studies. Here’s to that. Cheers."
Everyone also lifted their glasses, "Cheers."
The meal was lively, and after eating, the sisters-in-law and sisters gathered to tidy up and wash dishes. The children played in the yard, everything was splendid.
Even though it was already September, the living room was still quite warm due to the number of people. Zhou Guifang turned on the newly-bought pedestal fan for the children and brought over some washed grapes.
Xiao Ya, the second sister-in-law, sitting next to Luo Qiao, expressed enviously, "I’m really jealous of you. You finished a five-year university program in just two years, and now you’re pregnant too."
Luo Qiao knew what the second sister-in-law was thinking and teased her, "If you’re envious, you could have a baby too—my second brother can certainly afford it."
Xiao Ya said, "Who else gets pregnant while still in university? It would be so awkward. If I want to, I’d have to wait until I graduate the year after next. You’re lucky, doing a master’s doesn’t come with so many worries."
Luo Qiao patted Xiao Ya’s hand, "Second sister-in-law, nowadays a family can only have one child, so whether you have more or not doesn’t make a difference."
Xiao Ya replied, "I don’t think your second brother is too old now. Kids his age are already old enough to run errands."
Luo Qiao laughed, "Our family has the gene for twins. If you’re lucky, you could leap ahead of the rest. Go for it!"
The others sitting around, hearing this, all laughed.
Luo Xuyuan then walked over, "We’re not in a hurry. Qiaoqiao is right, who knows, maybe we could have a pair of twins like the third brother and sister-in-law and win by numbers."
Xiao Ya playfully retorted, "Dream on, you wish."
At that moment, Luo Daoren carried over Luo Pengyun and Luo Zitong, who were nine months old. Zhou Xiaomin, the third sister-in-law, quickly stood up, "They’re awake, come to mommy."
Luo Daoren handed Luo Pengyun over, "This little guy is getting heavy; I can barely hold him."
Luo Qiao looked at her nephew and niece, "These two little ones woke up without crying, they’re really easy to look after."
Zhou Guifang brought over two bowls of noodle soup that had been cut into small segments, "Here, feed them."
She then asked Woo Yunmei, who was holding Luo Penghao, "Yunmei, does Xiaohao want some more?"
Woo Yunmei shook her head, "Grandma, this little guy has already had quite a bit. We can’t feed him more."
Only then did Zhou Guifang ask the great-grandchildren running around in the yard if they wanted some, and seeing them shake their heads, she finally sat down and took the bowl from her husband to feed her great-granddaughter Luo Zitong.
Zhou Xiaomin was extremely grateful for the grandfather and grandmother. Luo Siyan was busy in the military and couldn’t help much; she herself was very busy as well. If it weren’t for the grandparents taking over child-rearing, she wouldn’t be able to work or even think about attending distance-learning university.
Luo Qiao had been quietly observing all along. Child-rearing really wasn’t easy, but luckily when the time came for her confinement and rearing her own child, she would have Rong Daniang to help, so she probably wouldn’t be too flustered.
Lu Yichen passed her a cup of water from behind, "Don’t worry, I’ll help out when the time comes, there will surely be no issues."
Haotian came over and took out some Big Unity from his pocket, "Here, take this money to buy some nutritious supplements."
Luo Qiao was about to refuse when Haotian added, "I know you have money, but this is just a little something from me, please don’t turn it down."
