Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 314 Bottom Line (24)

After several people walked into the house one after another, Zhou Yian carefully helped his grandmother sit down.

Then, he smiled and looked at Ji Xiao with gentle eyes, and said softly: "Grandma, in fact, the reason we came here this time, in addition to spending the holiday with you, we also have a big happy event to tell you."

When grandma heard this, a look of doubt appeared on her face and she looked straight at Zhou Yian.

Zhou Yian smiled slightly and turned his gaze to Ji Xiao, indicating that she should tell grandma the good news.

Ji Xiao understood what Zhou Yian meant, so she walked over to her grandmother, held her hand tightly, and said in a tender voice, "Grandma, I have a baby! You're going to be a grandmother soon!"

When grandma heard this, she was so excited that her eyes were moistened instantly. She said with a trembling voice: "That's great! Now our Xiaoxiao won't be alone anymore."

Zhou's mother, standing nearby, also laughed and comforted her grandmother, "Grandma, you are in such good health. You will surely live for many more decades in good health. By then, you may even be able to see your great-grandson grow up."

"Haha, that's right! I still have to help my sweetheart take care of the kids, I can't let my sweetheart get too tired."

They chatted about family matters for a while, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Therefore, grandma asked Zhou Yian to go to the kitchen to help, and Zhou's mother followed her. So the dinner was prepared by Zhou Yian, grandma and Zhou's mother together.

Originally, Ji Xiao was also planning to go to the kitchen to help, but her grandmother and the others felt sorry for Ji Xiao because she was pregnant and insisted on letting her rest and play in the yard.

So Ji Xiao had to sit by the pond alone to feed the fish. In the pond there were not only edible carp and grass carp, but also koi for viewing.

Each of these fish was fed by grandma and became plump. They swam around in the water, shaking their heads and tails, looking very cute.

These fish are the fry that Ji Xiao took out from the space, but they are just ordinary fish with a little spiritual energy. However, the fish feed they eat is not ordinary. It is specially made by Yun Duo in the space and contains a little spiritual energy, so these ordinary fish like it very much.

So every time Yun Duo makes fish feed, she makes a lot, enough to feed the fish for a year.

But because grandma always remembered to feed the fish from time to time, the fish grew unusually plump before they were even a year old, which made grandma very happy.

But it also speeds up the consumption of fish feed. So, when Ji Xiao sent her grandmother back two days ago, she took out some and put it in the warehouse for future use.

Look, Ji Xiao is using that fish feed to feed the fish now!

Seeing the fishes scrambling to eat the fish feed, Ji Xiao's mood also became cheerful. Not to mention, this feeling was quite healing. No wonder her grandma would sprinkle some feed on them from time to time.

Soon, before six o'clock in the evening, grandma and the others finally prepared dinner.

At this time, grandma said to Zhou Yian: "Xiao Zhou, we don't need your help here now. Go and call Xiao Xiao to come for dinner."

"Okay, grandma." Zhou Yian wiped his hands and left the kitchen to call Ji Xiao to eat.

When he brought Ji Xiao to the restaurant, his grandmother and his mother had already placed all the dishes.

When everyone was sitting around the big round table eating, grandma started to pick up dishes for Ji Xiao.

While holding the food in her mouth, she said with concern, "My dear, you have to eat more! Now that you have a baby in your belly, you must replenish your nutrition well!" It was really hard to refuse.

However, Ji Xiao still put down her chopsticks, raised her head, and revealed a hint of helplessness in her eyes. She responded softly: "I know, grandma. I'm eating, please stop serving me food. I really can't finish so many dishes. It would be a pity if they were wasted. You should eat quickly. The food will not taste good if it gets cold."

At this time, Zhou Yian also stopped peeling shrimps. He first put the shrimps he had peeled in front of Ji Xiao, then picked up the paper towel next to him and wiped his hands carefully, smiling and said to grandma: "Grandma, don't worry, I will take good care of Xiao Xiao."

Grandma's eyes fell on Ji Xiao's bowl, and she seemed to want to take some more, but in the end she took back her chopsticks with some reluctance, muttering, "Okay, then what you can't finish can just be fed to the chickens."

After dinner, night fell, the lights came on, and a bright moon slowly rose, hanging high in the sky like a silver plate.

Everyone walked out of the house and came to the yard. They sat in the courtyard, talking and laughing, eating moon cakes, drinking scented tea, appreciating the moon, and spending the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

"Grandma, look how round the moon is tonight!" Ji Xiao said excitedly, pointing at the moon in the sky.

"Yes, on the day of reunion, the moon is especially round. What a pity..." Grandma's voice was a little low, as if she recalled some past events, and her expression was a little lonely.

"Grandma, I'm still here, and in the future, there's the baby in my belly." Ji Xiao knew that her grandmother was thinking of her deceased parents, so she quickly comforted her.

"Yes, grandma-in-law, we will be together from now on." Zhou's mother also echoed.

Grandma stroked Ji Xiao's head and said, "Yes, there is also my sweet baby. There will be a little great-grandson next year; there is also Xiao Zhou and my mother-in-law."

……

As the night deepened, a few people were still chatting about family matters under the moonlight, and the atmosphere was harmonious and warm.

Zhou Yian held her in his arms and looked at her quietly, his eyes full of tenderness and love.

Before she knew it, she felt sleepy and her eyelids began to twitch.

Seeing this, Zhou's mother said with concern: "Xiaoxiao, if you are sleepy, go back to your room and sleep. We should also go back to our room to rest."

Ji Xiao nodded, slowly stood up in Zhou Yian's arms, and walked towards the house.

Zhou Yian followed closely behind her, protecting her carefully, as if she was a precious piece of porcelain.

The two returned to the house and went upstairs. Zhou Yian first took her to the bathroom to wash up, then helped her change into pajamas, and then sent her into the room. After watching her lie down and fall asleep, Zhou Yian went to wash up.

After Zhou Yian changed into pajamas, washed up and returned to the room, he gently got on the bed and lay down next to Ji Xiao. His eyes always stayed on Ji Xiao's calm face, as if he wanted to imprint her appearance deeply in his heart.

Not until he felt sleepy did Zhou Yian hold the person in his arms, close his eyes and fall into a deep sleep.

The moonlight from the sky shone through the window onto the two of them, as if covering them with a layer of silver gauze, and the whole room was filled with a warm atmosphere.
