Chapter 560: Five hundred fifty-eight, pregnant

Seeing Luo Shu, Zhang Xiaoling squeezed out of the kitchen, "Luo Shu, did you just get back?" She had seen Luo Shu in the morning and knew she had something to attend to. Now, as the weather was getting cooler, the cake business was booming. If it hadn’t been for Luo Shu’s help these past few days, she wouldn’t have managed at all.

"That place is already set up, and the machines have arrived. When do you plan to move?" Luo Shu asked.

"That fast?" Zhang Xiaoling remarked, surprised. She thought it would take at least a month.

Luo Shu smiled and nodded, "You pick a time when you’re free, and I’ll take you there to have a look."

After thinking it over, Zhang Xiaoling replied, "How about tomorrow morning?" Her home was getting increasingly cramped, and if things continued, she and Yang Le would end up sleeping among the piles of cakes. Though Yang Le didn’t complain, she could tell that he was getting annoyed. Anyone who came home after a day of training would be unhappy without a comfortable place to sleep.

"Great! I’ll head back home now." Luo Shu agreed and left Zhang Xiaoling’s house.

"Sister-in-law Yang, are you moving out soon?"

"The speed is really impressive. Sister-in-law Lu is quite decisive and efficient."

"Indeed, it hasn’t been that long since she bought the house."

"Wasn’t it a rental? Even if Sister-in-law Lu has money, she couldn’t just casually buy a house, could she? And there’s also the renovation."

"Instructor Lu’s family will be ruined by her sooner or later."

"Sister-in-law Yang, did you rent or buy the new place?"

"We bought it," said Zhang Xiaoling. By now, this was no secret anyway.

"I knew it! Sister-in-law Lu is truly a spendthrift."

"How much money must that have cost? Instructor Lu really lets his wife do as she pleases."

"Exactly, if I dared to spend money like that, Old Ye would have a fit."

Luo Shu was unaware of their gossip, and even if she knew, she would just laugh it off. She spent money because she could make it. Since she earned it, why shouldn’t she spend it?

Walking toward her own home, she saw Qi Hui and Wu Yuan just outside her courtyard gate, apparently having just arrived.

"Two Sisters-in-law!" Luo Shu called out as she approached.

"What are you doing outside?" they asked curiously. They had come to inquire about the house situation, as it had been a week and thought by then it would have been somewhat arranged. After all, there wasn’t much you could do to make those kinds of houses look better.

"I just went to check on the house. It’s already been renovated. I’m going there tomorrow morning. Would you both like to come and see?" Luo Shu asked. She had said last time that she would take them to see it. Since they were here, they might as well all go together tomorrow.

"That’s why we came, to ask you just that," Qi Hui said with a smile.

"The renovation and the house purchase must have cost a pretty penny, right?" Wu Yuan said with a smile. She had some understanding of Lu Hanmo’s background.

"It was okay, please both Sister-in-Laws come inside and have a seat." Luo Shu opened the yard door and said to them.

The three of them walked into the house, and Luo Shu let Wu Yuan and Qi Hui sit down on the sofa in the living room.

She went into the kitchen to make a pot of tea, and also brought out some snacks and fruit to place on the coffee table in front of them.

"You’re always so hospitable every time we come, it makes us embarrassed to visit." Qi Hui said with a smile.

"Yeah, here you are pouring tea and offering snacks and fruit again," Wu Yuan said, shaking her head with a smile. Her husband, Old Li, and Qi Hui’s husband, Old Xu, both came from the village, and naturally, their family conditions could not compare to those of Lu Hanmo, who had a strong family background. Although they were not of a low rank now, their monthly income was after all limited, with a large family to provide for and money that needed to be sent back to their old homes, they simply didn’t have any extra cash to spend on these delicacies.

"If you two Sister-in-Laws are so formal with me, doesn’t it mean you don’t see me as a younger sister?" Luo Shu said with a laugh.

"How could that be? We see you as a younger sister, that’s why we came to chat with you." Wu Yuan laughed, picking up a piece of cantaloupe with a toothpick and placing it in her mouth, "What melon is this? It’s so sweet!"

"This is cantaloupe from the Frontier Zone. There are still two at home, later each Sister-in-Law can take one back." These melons were all stored in her space; she liked to eat them but found them somewhat troublesome to handle. So, she always bought more than needed and stored them in her own space, where they wouldn’t spoil anyway.

"No need to bother, I’m not just being polite, really!" Wu Yuan laughed and declined. The cantaloupe was delicious, but she wasn’t someone who liked to take advantage of others. Once might be nothing, but if every visit ended with eating and taking, she would feel embarrassed herself.

"Yeah, keep it for yourself to eat," Qi Hui added with a laugh. The last time she took something from Luo Shu home, Old Xu gave her an earful when he found out. She also didn’t like to take advantage of others, otherwise why wouldn’t she accept the gifts that the Guard’s Wives offered to curry favor with her?

"Sister-in-Laws, the cantaloupes are for your children to eat. Consider it a token from me as their aunt," Luo Shu said with a smile. She was sending them gifts precisely because she understood their characters. If it had been Liu Chunhua, she wouldn’t have even given a piece of candy.

"If you do this, we might not come next time," Wu Yuan said, pretending to be stern.

"Exactly!" Qi Hui nodded in agreement.

Luo Shu shook her head with a smile and stood up, "Then let me go cut some more. After you finish eating, take the leftovers back for the kids to try. There’s still more than half left in the fridge. Lu Hanmo doesn’t like sweets, and I can’t finish so much by myself. Consider it helping me out by taking some off my hands."

Wu Yuan and Qi Hui gave each other a wry smile, "Alright then!" She had put it that way; what more could they say?

After Wu Yuan and Qi Hui had left, Luo Shu curled up on the sofa reading a magazine, waiting for Lu Hanmo to come back.

Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.

It wasn’t until she felt a gentle kiss on her cheek that Luo Shu opened her eyes and saw Lu Hanmo in front of her. A lazy smile appeared on her lips, "You’re back!" She realized she had been quite sleepy these past couple of days. Could she be pregnant? Thinking of the possibility, she quickly used her Divine Sense to check her body.

When she saw that inside her uterus there were indeed two embryos, each the size of a fingernail, an excited smile immediately spread across her face. She did not expect that she, like her mother, was carrying twins.

"What’s the matter?" Noticing the change in Luo Shu’s expression, Lu Hanmo asked curiously.

"Congratulations, you’re going to be a dad," Luo Shu announced cheerfully.
