In the afternoon, Qiao Songzhi said that the solar energy was installed, and Qiao Qingqing paid the remaining payment.

"Mom, I won't go back for dinner. I have an appointment with Xiaowen, and Sheng'an also has something to do. Do you cook it yourself or should I order takeout for you?"

"What kind of takeout do you want? I can just cook it myself and drop by to eat with your parents-in-law."

Meeting Yuan Xiaowen at a hot pot restaurant, Qiao Qingqing felt like she was a world away. She and Yuan Xiaowen hadn't seen each other for ten years. Because of the floods, Yuan Xiaowen's wedding was postponed and she was pregnant again. The family was very protective of her, and she was worried that Qiao Qingqing would live alone without enough money.

She even asked her husband to send supplies to Qiao Qingqing twice. Until the water got deeper and deeper, Qiao Qingqing reported good news but not bad news, and asked Yuan Xiaowen not to ask her husband to send her anything again.

Before the communication was interrupted, Yuan Xiaowen said that their family was going to move to another place. Qiao Qingqing believed that Hu Yanhai could take good care of Xiaowen. He could do it in his previous life, and he would definitely be able to take care of her in this life.

"Qingqing, why have you changed so much?" Seeing Qiao Qingqing, Yuan Xiaowen blurted out, "Are you in a bad mood?"

Qiao Qingqing felt warm in her heart: "It's okay, I'm just tired. Are you feeling well?"

Yuan Xiaowen was shy: "It's okay. I went shopping yesterday and it was fine. By the way, how did you know I was pregnant?"

"I dreamed about it." Qiao Qingqing smiled, "I am the godmother of my child. Of course I have telepathy. Here is the menu for you. Just tick whatever you want to eat. I'm treating you today."

"Haha, you're welcome then!"

The two happily had a hot pot meal. For Yuan Xiaowen, it was just a dinner that was no different from usual ones. The sisters had a good relationship and had hot pot from time to time. But for Qiao Qingqing, this was a long time away.

At New Year's party, her eyes turned red while eating hot-pot beef.

"By the way, you have to believe me when I told you about the huge typhoon last time and buy more food at home." She lowered her eyes.

"Okay, I listen to you. Anyway, I have to buy a lot of wedding stuff recently, so I'll buy some food on the way." Yuan Xiaowen heard the seriousness in Qiao Qingqing's words and agreed.

"You also have a baby... buy more things for the baby. I also bought some for you. The address is your wedding room. You ask Hu Yanhai to sign for it. Don't be tired yourself."

"I know, don't buy me anything. The child is still young. You have to save money to buy a room in the school district. Don't spend money randomly."

"How can the things I bought for my goddaughter be called wasted money?"

Yuan Xiaowen touched her belly happily: "You also think it's a daughter, right? My mother dreamed of a cute female doll, and I also thought it would be a daughter. Yan Hai even started to name it, haha!"

"Can you... touch me?"

Yuan Xiaowen raised her head strangely: "You touch it." She grabbed Qiao Qingqing's hand and put it on her belly, "You can't touch it now. My mother said it will take four months for the pregnancy to become obvious! The baby will still move in the future.

When the time comes for you to touch it, it will definitely be magical!”

Qiao Qingqing gently touched Yuan Xiaowen's belly. Her belly wasn't pregnant yet, so naturally she couldn't touch anything. She smiled and said, "I touched the mushroom hot pot."

"Hahaha." Yuan Xiaowen smiled happily, "Because I just ate hot pot." She deliberately bulged her stomach, "Look, it looks like it's been six months."

"Like." Qiao Qingqing turned her head to prevent Yuan Xiaowen from seeing her dull eyes. She took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Let's go, I'll take you home. It's too late and it's not safe."

On the way, Yuan Xiaowen kept telling Qiao Qingqing the interesting things about preparing for the wedding, and the fun things about going out with Zheng Meng on the weekend.

"Mengmeng is so tight on her husband. She has to call her every hour. Alas, I can't tell her this. I just think her husband is not very good." Yuan Xiaowen whispered, "If it weren't for her husband's style

A little bit of that, Mengmeng is not so insecure, she is uneasy even when she goes out to play, her heart is always there."

"That was her choice. We had many heart-to-heart talks with her back then, and we even made ppts to help her analyze. In the end, they broke up and got back together more than a dozen times, and finally got married. You were right not to tell her, lest they end up with each other.

The husband and wife are in harmony, but you and I have become evil again."

"I know, I haven't said anything since they got married. If she complains, I just need to be a good listener." Yuan Xiaowen thought of something and asked again. "Qingqing, are you having a conflict with Mengmeng?

I feel like you're a little cold when you talk about her."

"No, I just have some grudges and I have some doubts about my relationship with her."

Yuan Xiaowen stared: "Do you know? You have to believe Mengmeng."

Qiao Qingqing focused on driving: "Huh? What do you know and what do you believe?"

"You, isn't this the case? It's nothing, it's just that I remembered it wrong."

Looking at Yuan Xiaowen, Qiao Qingqing said with a smile: "You have been like this since you were a child. Every time we secretly do bad things together, whether it's skipping class or not turning in homework, the teacher obviously didn't ask, but you don't blame yourself when you see the teacher's dark face.

I asked the teacher if he knew about it, but you always said you wanted to change it, and it's still the same as when you were a child. Tell me what you hid from me."

Yuan Xiaowen knocked her head angrily and said self-defeatingly: "Well, didn't I pick up Mengmeng and I to go shopping on Saturday? I called her downstairs and she didn't answer, so I went upstairs to look for her.

She fell in love with her, and then she saw her and her husband arguing. She said that her husband fell in love with every girl he saw, a new girl every day, even her friends. Then Du Jie said that he just likes to see beautiful women, Qiao Qingqing.

Why did he look at Mengmeng twice when he looked good? He said that Mengmeng was petty and even his good friends were jealous... Qingqing! Mengmeng is not that kind of person. The bad thing is Du Jie. Du Jie is sowing discord! You Qianqing

Don’t misunderstand Mengmeng. The three of us grew up together and have such a deep relationship. If there are any misunderstandings, let’s speak out and don’t affect our relationship.”

This was the first time Qiao Qingqing knew about this, and she couldn't help but feel a chill. No wonder the few times she saw Du Jie because of Zheng Meng, she always felt that something was wrong. After Du Jie left, Zheng Meng would always be in a good mood.

She felt depressed for a while, and it turned out that there was such an inside story. Combined with what she heard Du Jie say to the person who robbed her house in her previous life, it made her feel even more disgusting.

"Qingqing, Mengmeng is a love brain, but she has such a good relationship with us that she will not be led into a ditch by her husband. You have to believe her."

"It's okay. Don't think about it anymore. The grudge between Mengmeng and I is not about this. Don't blame yourself."

Yuan Xiaowen was frustrated: "I really have to learn to control my mouth in the future."

"Don't be upset, look who's on the roadside." Qiao Qingqing slowly stopped the car.

"It's Yanhai!" Yuan Xiaowen's eyes lit up. She grabbed her bag and was about to get out of the car. Then she turned to say hello, "Qingqing, come to my house and sit for a while! My mother just made dumplings for me at noon and put them in the refrigerator. I gave them

You cook.”

"No, my mother is here to see me. I have to go back to stay with her."

"It turns out that auntie is here. Then go back. I will play with you another day."

Hu Yanhai nodded to Qiao Qingqing, stretched out his hand to support Yuan Xiaowen, and the two walked side by side towards the corridor. Looking at their backs, Qiao Qingqing's eyes were filled with tenderness and sadness, and she wished them happiness and a good life in her heart.

When she got home, her mother had already returned to the hotel. She sent her a text message asking her to go to bed early and not stay up late. She also said that her parents-in-law and uncle had already gone to bed in the hotel, so she didn't have to worry. Such ordinary care made Qiao Qingqing feel sad.

It was warm, but maybe it was the shadow of her previous life. She really couldn't sleep until her husband came back.

Fortunately today, Shao Sheng'an came back after eleven o'clock and brought her two boxes of snacks.

"You used to like the Mango Dafu from this store the most. I just happened to buy it for you when I was doing errands there today." Shao Sheng'an said about today's work while changing clothes, "It went very well. Brother Wang said that a batch will be delivered tomorrow.

It’s passed, where are you?”

Qiao Qingqing talked about today's work in detail. Shao Sheng'an listened carefully and praised her: "My Qingqing is really capable. Just wait a moment. I will go over and help you after I finish the work here."

"It's okay. You are busy with your work. It is more efficient if you work separately. The day after tomorrow, I have to go to the wonton snack shop in front of the community to pick up the goods. I bought a lot of things." He also mentioned the impulsive consumption that night.

"What counts as impulsive consumption? Aren't they all good things that you can eat and use? You reminded me, I need to buy more of my favorite dishes and put them away so that I can eat them whenever I want." Shao Sheng'an took out the paper.

He used a pen to write the menu, which made Qiao Qingqing laugh. She sat next to him and watched him write. While writing, Shao Sheng'an talked about what he had done today, including the process of fooling his parents.

"I said I will be very busy recently because I have to go to various places for physical examinations. You have to accompany me, so you are not at home..."

Suddenly Shao Sheng'an said, "I have an appointment for a sterilization surgery next Friday. Please cancel your surgery."

"Surgery? What did you say, Sheng An?" Qiao Qingqing thought she heard wrong.

"What's wrong?" Shao Sheng'an turned his head and looked at her tenderly, "I have consulted. It is better for me to perform a sterilization and recover quickly. I chose next Friday because I think I need at least half a month to purchase supplies. Don't you?

Are you saying that floods will start to occur in various places in half a month? It will not be convenient to buy things by then. I plan to buy things quickly in the next two weeks. Then we can stay at home with peace of mind. Our house has an eighth floor.
