That was the voice of Pei Yanqing, Pei Jingchuan's younger brother, a young man full of energy.

His sudden appearance added a bit of vitality to the peaceful Pei family in the morning.

When Old Mrs. Pei heard the sound, a loving smile appeared on her face. She turned her head and looked in the direction of the sound: "Yan Qing is back."

Pei Yanqing's footsteps approached quickly until he appeared at the door of the restaurant with excitement on his face.

His eyes immediately locked on Jiang Yuzhu, his eyes shining with surprise.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that you are pregnant, is it true?" Pei Yanqing almost jumped to ask this question, his voice full of uncontrollable excitement.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Ling walked into the restaurant elegantly, and her appearance added a gentleness to the morning atmosphere.

Seeing everyone there, she smiled and said hello: "Good morning, grandma, brother, and sister-in-law."

Seeing Mengling, Mrs. Pei also showed a gentle smile on her face, "Mengling, come and sit down." Then she turned to Pei Yanqing and said slightly reproachfully: "Yanqing, why are you so sudden? Bamboo."

Pei Yanqing realized her impulsiveness and quickly restrained herself, but she still couldn't help but cast an expectant look at Jiang Yuzhu.

In full view of everyone, Jiang Yuzhu nodded slightly and confirmed Pei Yanqing's question. Her cheeks were stained with a faint blush, and her heart was both slightly embarrassed and full of happiness.

"Yes, Yan Qing, Meng Ling." Her voice was soft, filled with the joy of becoming a mother.

When Meng Ling heard the news, her eyes immediately flashed with surprise.

She walked towards Jiang Yuzhu, gently grabbed her hand, and said softly: "This is really great, sister-in-law, congratulations." Meng Ling's tone was full of sincere blessings, and her smile was warm and kind, which made Jiang Yuzhu feel Create a warm family atmosphere.

In this warm atmosphere, Meng Ling suddenly turned around and walked towards the place where she had just placed her handbag, her movements elegant and light.

She took out a small, delicate box from her bag. The box was wrapped with a lavender ribbon and carefully decorated with a small white flower. It looked simple yet elegant.

"This is a small gift I prepared for the baby." Meng Ling's voice was filled with tenderness. She approached Jiang Yuzhu again and handed her the gift box in her hand.

Jiang Yuzhu took the gift and felt countless emotions in his heart.

She gently opened the ribbon and opened the gift box, only to see a delicate hand-knitted sweater lying inside. The sweater was made of several soft color lines intertwined, showing extremely delicate.

This little sweater not only reflects Meng Ling's intentions, but also her infinite blessing for the upcoming new life.

"Mengling, this is so beautiful, why are you so careful..." Jiang Yuzhu's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and her voice was full of gratitude.

In her opinion, this gift is not just a piece of clothing, but also Meng Ling's deep affection for the family and future new members.

Meng Ling looked at Jiang Yuzhu's reaction and smiled slightly, with a warm light shining in her eyes, "Sister-in-law, I know that you and your brother are very much looking forward to the arrival of the baby, and so am I. I knitted this little sweater myself, although it may still be It’s not perfect, but it’s my blessing to the little baby.”

However, just as Pei Yanqing and Mengling were about to sit down and enjoy a sumptuous breakfast, Mrs. Pei's sudden words caused subtle changes in the originally harmonious atmosphere.

Mrs. Pei's eyes fell on Pei Yanqing, and her tone was reproachful: "Yanqing, look at you, there are happy events here in Yuzhu. When will you and Mengling bring such good news to the family?" Her words were direct and frank. Although there was a hint of joking, they also revealed her expectations for Pei Yanqing.

Pei Yanqing lowered his head under Mrs. Pei's scolding, his face looking a little embarrassed.

In this morning full of expectation and joy, Mrs. Pei's words undoubtedly gave him a heavy blow.

His voice was weak, almost saying to himself: "I know, grandma, I... we will do our best."

As his wife, Mengling knew that Mrs. Pei's words were mainly aimed at Pei Yanqing, but she still felt an inexplicable pressure.

In her mind, maybe she didn't do well enough to make Mrs. Pei feel so dissatisfied with them.

Her eyes were full of complex emotions, and she gently touched the back of Pei Yanqing's hand, giving him silent comfort.

Although Mrs. Pei's words were meant as a joke, they could not help but make the atmosphere subtly more solemn.

Jiang Yuzhu noticed a trace of melancholy flashing across Meng Ling's face, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of understanding in his heart.

She walked gently to Mengling's side and comforted her in a tone full of empathy: "Mengling, just think of grandma's words as an expectation. I believe that everyone's happiness will be determined by their own expectations." The rhythm comes.”

Mengling raised her head and met Jiang Yuzhu's eyes. The complex emotions in her eyes were gradually replaced by a touch of gratitude.

She gently held Jiang Yuzhu's hand and responded with a smile: "Thank you, sister-in-law. Sometimes, I really envy you for being able to face everything so calmly."

Seeing this, Mrs. Pei realized that her words might have gone too far, and she sighed softly.

Her eyes fell softly on Mengling, with a hint of apology in her tone: "Mengling, what grandma said just now was not aimed at you. It's Yan Qing who is too worrying sometimes." Then, her eyes glared. Looking at Pei Yanqing, his eyes were both reproachful and full of affection, as if to say that this expectation was due to too much love.

Pei Yanqing's heart felt like it was being pressed down by a heavy stone, his eyes were wandering, and a look of tears but not wanting to cry was intertwined on his face.

But he didn't dare to look directly into Mrs. Pei's eyes. The feeling of being unable to refute and could only endure silently made his mood extremely complicated.

"Grandma, I..." Pei Yanqing's voice was low, trying to find a chance to explain, but found that his words were spinning in his throat, and finally turned into a weak sigh.

When Mrs. Pei saw this, the reproach in her eyes softened slightly, and turned into a bit of deep thinking.

She shook her head gently, as if deep down in her heart, she was reflecting on her harshness just now. "Yan Qing, grandma knows that you have been working hard. However, you also know how important this family's expectations for inheritance are."

Meng Ling felt the tension and uneasiness in Pei Yanqing. She squeezed his hand gently and comforted him with a look that only the two of them could understand.

She turned to Mrs. Pei, her voice gentle but firm: "Grandma, Yan Qing and I are working hard. We are also looking forward to the children. However, this kind of thing also requires the right time, right place, and right people. Please give us some Time, we will not let you down.”

Pei Jingchuan listened quietly beside him, a glimmer of understanding flashing in his eyes.
