Reborn Almighty Scholar

Chapter 257 The due date is approaching

October 2001, 10, Monday, August 1th of the lunar calendar, Mid-Autumn Festival + National Day.

Although there is no military parade this year, the festive atmosphere is still very strong, and the folk atmosphere is particularly good. After getting rid of the wave of layoffs in previous years, ordinary people have basically found a new way of life and work, whether it is going to work on a construction site, It's better to set up a stall to sell breakfast, at least there is a way to make money, and it is much more than being a worker in a factory.

In this era, housing prices have not risen wildly, prices are relatively stable, and people have more and more money in their pockets. Everything is moving in a good direction. The mental state of the people is very positive. Unable to hope, the attitude of having to lie flat is completely different.

Today Ma Xiaolong, Zhu Sha, and Dai Yu got up and went to Tiananmen Square before dawn to watch the flag-raising ceremony together.

After all, it is the National Day. People who came to see the flag-raising crowded the entire square today. Most of them brought cameras or mobile phones, wanting to record this meaningful scene.

Ma Xiaolong looked at the clothes of the people in the square. After years of hard work by Linglong Clothing, the clothes of ordinary people in China are almost the same as they are 20 years later. They are all quite fashionable, and nearly one-third of the people are wearing Hanfu. In recent years, the promotion of Hanfu has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Moreover, Hanfu is more in line with the posture and temperament of Huaxia people, and can better let the world know Huaxia.

Ma Xiaolong was very pleased, because today he was also wearing a Hanfu, with gold inscriptions on a white background and a flying sword around his waist, which was very luxurious.

Zhu Sha and Dai Yu also followed suit, wearing a bright red and a water green long Hanfu dress respectively, the three of them stood together, attracting the attention of countless people and murdering countless films.

Many young men and women wanted to come up and ask for contact information, but seeing the three of them standing together so harmoniously, they lost the courage to go forward.

Shame on myself!
……

With the end of the flag raising ceremony, the crowd dispersed one after another. Ma Xiaolong and his party also went to the roadside parking lot and drove back to the villa.

After arriving home, Zhu Sha changed into her practice clothes and went to practice in the courtyard, while Dai Yu went back to her bedroom to read medical books to consolidate her medical foundation.

As the head of the family, Ma Xiaolong took off his Hanfu and put on home clothes, and started working in the kitchen.

My aunt's family will come over this morning and have dinner here at noon. He has to prepare the meal early.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Zhu Sha received a call from Zhu Lingling: "Sister?"

"..."

A few minutes later, Zhu Sha walked into the kitchen and said, "Husband, sister-in-law is coming over for lunch."

"Oh? Got it." Ma Xiaolong nodded, and said: "According to the days, my sister's due date is still [-] days away, so my belly is quite big by now!"

"Then who knows, I haven't seen you for nine months." Even when she came to the capital, Zhu Sha had never seen Zhu Lingling. She was too busy as a sister-in-law, and no one knew where she lived today. Zhu Sha didn't want to disturb her. Will take the initiative to come over for dinner today.

"I'll see you in a while." Ma Xiaolong smiled and said, "There's a lot of oily smoke in the kitchen, let's go out!"

Zhu Sha took two steps forward, hugged him behind her back, and said with a smile, "Thank you husband, mua~"

……

Before 11 o'clock, the aunt's family and Zhu Lingling came to the villa one after another.

Seeing Zhu Lingling appearing in the villa with a big belly, the aunt's family was shocked.

"You...you are President Zhu of Linglong Group?" The cousin-in-law couldn't believe his eyes.

Zhu Lingling has appeared frequently on TV in the past few years. After all, she is the richest woman in China and the first representative figure who created a world-class Chinese brand. It is normal for her cousin and husband to know each other.

Zhu Lingling smiled and nodded: "It's me."

"This is my cousin's husband." Ma Xiaolong hugged little Didi and introduced to both sides with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Zhu, I have admired your name for a long time, and I am very lucky to see you today." The cousin's eyes lit up, and she greeted Zhu Lingling with a bit of flattery.

"..." Zhu Lingling smiled slightly: "Hello."

Because of Zhu Lingling's arrival, the aunt's family was a bit cautious, but fortunately, Zhu Sha acted as a lubricant for both parties. After learning that Zhu Lingling was her aunt, the aunt's family was surprised, and their nervousness eased a lot. Gradually, they started talking and laughing .

"Looking at your size, you're about to give birth, right?"

Chatting and chatting, Zhu Lingling's stomach became the topic.

Zhu Lingling was sitting on the sofa, stroking her round belly with both hands, with a hint of maternal brilliance in her eyes, she smiled and said, "Yes! There are still [-] more days."

"Boys and girls? Have you checked?" The aunt is very concerned about the matter of giving birth.

Zhu Lingling smiled: "Two twins."

"Dragon twins? Oh, it's really good." The aunt was so envious. She gave birth to a daughter in her life, and her own daughter only gave birth to a daughter. She has always regretted it. The taste is complicated.

There is a professional team of nurses. Although Zhu Lingling is about to give birth, except for her belly, her body shape has basically remained the same as before her pregnancy, and her complexion looks good. Ma Xiaolong felt that she was very healthy.

It's lunch time, after a busy morning, eight dishes and one soup were served, and everyone started to salivate when they smelled the aroma. It was the first time for Zhu Lingling to taste Ma Xiaolong's upgraded cuisine. I can't stop.

Originally, people would chat while eating during festival dinners, but Ma Xiaolong's incredible cooking skills caused the people at this dinner party to only focus on eating and eating, without saying a word, for fear of saying too much and missing a bite of food.

In the end, the meal that usually took an hour was cleaned up in just 10 minutes. Everyone's belly was rolling, but their expressions were still full of satisfaction.

Zhu Lingling leaned on the back of the chair, and her already big belly grew bigger again. She put her hands on her belly and stroked it gently for a moment, and said, "Xiaolong, your cooking skills are too scary, even better than the state banquet chef's." .”

Little Didi was sitting on Ma Xiaolong's lap, her belly was uncomfortable, and Ma Xiaolong was rubbing her to digest food: "It's nothing, it's just to fully stimulate the deliciousness of the ingredients themselves, I don't use some seasonings, otherwise it would be more delicious .”

"Can it be more delicious?" Zhu Lingling's eyes were round: "Then why don't you use it?"

"It's better not to eat it." Ma Xiaolong shook his head and said, "Otherwise you will only be able to satisfy your hunger if you eat other things in the future, and you won't be able to taste the taste."

"Are you kidding?" Everyone was shocked.

"I'm not kidding." Ma Xiaolong said: "I tried it myself, and after that time, it was like an addiction. It didn't taste like eating anything else, and it took a long time to recover."

"..." Zhu Lingling was stunned: "Didn't you drug it?"

"Not at all." Ma Xiaolong rolled his eyes and said, "Maybe there was a chemical reaction. The perfect combination of ingredients and seasonings exceeded the tolerance of the taste buds. After that, I didn't dare to use any more ingredients."

"You put it that way, I really want to try it." Zhu Lingling licked her lips, food without ingredients is so delicious, if ingredients are used, wouldn't it be fatal?

"Give up! I definitely won't do it, or it will hurt people." Ma Xiaolong rubbed Little Didi's stomach, and said: "Your due date is coming soon, pay attention during this period, and let go of work matters if you can." Let it go, everything is about the children."

"I know." Zhu Lingling hummed lightly, and said, "How about after school starts? Are you still used to it?"

"It's okay, besides reading and studying every day is reading and studying, but it's much more comfortable than when I was in high school." Ma Xiaolong laughed.

"I'm an excellent student after all, I can't stand reading and studying all day." Zhu Lingling laughed.

"Hehe, Xiaolong loves to study since he was a child." The aunt smiled as if her own child had been praised: "The college entrance examination score is the first perfect score in history. The neighbors in the neighborhood envy me for having such a good nephew."

"That is, it's not enough for you to embarrass yourself." The uncle complained: "I feel embarrassed to talk about your nephew when I see people."

"My nephew is trying to win, why are you embarrassed?" The aunt was upset.

"I won't compete with you." The uncle was cowardly.

"You old couple don't say a few words." The cousin was a little nervous: "In front of Mr. Zhu, don't mess around."

"..." Seeing Zhu Lingling with funny eyes, both my aunt and uncle restrained themselves.

Even if they knew that Zhu Lingling was Zhu Sha's aunt, but under the shadow of a famous tree, they two ordinary people, how dare they act presumptuously in front of an internationally renowned big boss like Zhu Lingling.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Ma Xiaolong got up to clean up the dishes, and everyone left the table one after another, the awkward atmosphere was broken like this.

The aunt's family ate some refreshments, digested for a while, and then left the villa, but Xiao Didi stayed and said that she would stay with her uncle's house for a few days.

"I know that I'm close to my uncle." The cousin laughed and scolded, but left the daughter here. In her opinion, the daughter's closeness with Ma Xiaolong, the uncle, will definitely have various benefits in the future, whether it is the daughter's or their family's.

Cousin is capable, so naturally he wants to do everything possible to get close. Fu has distant relatives in the mountains, let alone right under his nose!Her cousin must seize the opportunity.

What's more, it couldn't be better if the daughter kissed her cousin too.

After the auntie's family left, Zhu Lingling stayed behind and said to Ma Xiaolong, "I'm not at ease. Please help me check the child's condition."

"I've seen it a long time ago." Ma Xiaolong and Xiao Didi played with the flower rope, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! The baby is fine, and you are also healthy. The probability of a normal delivery is more than 99%."

"Then I'm relieved." Zhu Lingling breathed a sigh of relief. As the due date is getting closer, she is getting more and more nervous every day. When I come here for dinner today, one is that I haven't seen each other for a long time, and the other is that I want Ma Xiaolong to help her. Look at the condition of the fetus.

Her future rests with these two children in her womb, so she can't help but treat them carelessly.

Fortunately, Ma Xiaolong said there was no problem, so she was relieved.

Zhu Sha washed a bunch of grapes, pulled them off one by one, put them in a bowl, and handed them to Zhu Lingling: "They are about to give birth, so add more nutrition."

"It's rare that you are so filial." Zhu Lingling smiled all over her face, put the bowls on her stomach, and put them into her mouth one by one: "Well, sunshine roses, sweet."

As the most popular fruit in the past two years, Zhu Lingling often ate it during pregnancy.

However, the planting range of Sunshine Roses is too small, and the yield is not high. Basically, they are sold out as soon as they hit the market. Even she can't eat them every day.

"You should have said it earlier!" After hearing the situation, Zhu Sha said, "My husband can get it anytime, just tell him if you want to eat."

"Forget it! I don't want to disturb your studies." Zhu Lingling shook her head and said, "Besides, I am now strictly following the requirements of the medical team for diet and exercise, and the food cooked by Xiaolong today is so delicious, otherwise I shouldn't have Eat so much."

"That's up to you." Zhu Sha walked to Dai Yu and sat down, stretched her waist, and said, "I just finished eating and I'm a little sleepy. Sister-in-law, are you taking a nap?"

"Sleep." Zhu Lingling ate up the remaining grapes and said, "Arrange a guest room for me."

"Then come with me!" Zhu Sha took her to the guest room for an afternoon nap.

"Uncle, I'm sleepy too." Little Didi yawned in Ma Xiaolong's arms.

Ma Xiaolong smiled and said, "Uncle will take you to sleep in the house."

"Ah."

……

After a nap, Zhu Lingling left. Before leaving, Ma Xiaolong gave her a bottle of Chinese medicine pills: "Every morning and evening, take one pill, just eat it."

Zhu Lingling took the medicine bottle and asked, "What is the effect of the medicine?"

"Strengthen the body and prevent the miscarriage." Ma Xiaolong said: "No accident, the childbirth will be smoother, and it will not be painful."

Zhu Lingling clenched the medicine bottle tightly, and said with a smile, "You're still thoughtful, it's not in vain that I love you so much."

"You said so."

After Zhu Lingling was sent away, Ma Xiaolong went into the kitchen and prepared mooncakes for dinner.

The weather is fine today, and it’s also in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival. At night, I must eat mooncakes in the yard to enjoy the moon. The mooncakes sold outside are not as delicious as those made by him. In the evening, I will make a few snacks and sit in the yard to enjoy the moon. Great enjoyment.

It was night in a blink of an eye, and the willows were on the moon. Ma Xiaolong moved the table to the yard. The meals and moon cakes were served on the table. Looking at the full moon in the sky and feeling the coolness of autumn, Ma Xiaolong picked up the wine glass, which was filled with ice cold beer.

Now that they are all adults, they can try to drink some wine. Beer, a low-alcohol public wine, is naturally the first choice of young people. In their own home, Zhu Sha and Dai Yu are willing to try it, only Xiao Didi, a little girl Holding a glass of Sprite, clinking glasses with my uncle and future aunt, happily enjoying the food and beauty of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"It feels so good." Dai Yu showed a rare relieved smile, and said, "It's completely different from celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival at home before. It feels like my own little home."

Zhu Sha smiled and said: "This is our small home, sister Lin should get used to it as soon as possible."

"I'm quite used to it." Dai Yu smiled and said, "With you all here, I don't feel lonely as a stranger in a foreign land, but feel at ease."

"That's good." Ma Xiaolong said with a smile: "Although the future is still very long, we will always be together, don't worry."

"En." Dai Yu nodded with a smile: "Thank you."

"Why are you being polite to us?" Zhu Sha put a quartered mooncake to her mouth: "We are a family."

"..." Dai Yu took a bite of the mooncake, Wuren, her favorite: "It's delicious."
