Jiang Tingxia was a little shy, and her face immediately turned red. "Don't make trouble, I'll make the bed first."

"I haven't seen you for a few days, what's wrong with me hugging you for a while?"

He asked with a smile, "Do you know why the elder sister sent the quilt over?"

Jiang Tingxia blushed. She didn't react at first, but when Li Changpu asked, she knew it.

Li Dahua wanted them to stay together.

She refused to say this and only asked, "Why?"

Li Changpu saw Jiang Tingxia shaking his head and scratched Jiang Tingxia's straight nose. "Why do you say that?"

Li Changpu was like a clingy large dog at this moment, very happy, rubbing his face against Jiang Tingxia's.

It was just that the 'large dog' occasionally acted like a spoiled child, but because of his lack of experience and the huge size difference, he couldn't control his strength well, and he knocked Jiang Tingxia down without warning. Fortunately, there was a bed next to them, and they both fell down.

Jiang Tingxia screamed, opened her eyes and fell into Li Changpu's arms, a pair of big hands protecting her head.

Jiang Tingxia slapped Li Changpu on the shoulder a few times, but did not blame him. Instead, she hooked her arm around his neck and refuted his words, "It's not like we haven't seen each other for a few days. We see each other every day and even eat at the same table."

"That's different."

Although they saw each other every day, they worked during the day and slept in separate rooms at night. When they met, there were so many people at home that they couldn't even be intimate or hold hands or hug. Not to mention that Li Dahua treated him like a dangerous person and was very careful to prevent him from getting close to Jiang Tingxia.

Jiang Tingxia could feel his longing, which was direct and naked, but she still wanted him to say it in person.

Jiang Tingxia smiled and touched Li Changpu's face. She asked, "Do you miss me?"

Li Changpu pressed the back of his cold hand on his face and answered straightforwardly, "Yes, I really do."

Jiang Tingxia's eyes sparkled, and she was a little proud. "I really want it, but I want it a lot?"

Li Changpu could see Jiang Tingxia's little thoughts. This proud and noble girl always wanted to be superior to him.

However, it seemed that he did miss her more.

No wonder she looked so confident.

A big hand slipped in from under the hem of her clothes, the palm was burning hot, Li Changpu looked at Jiang Tingxia with a smile, her voice a little hoarse, "You'll know how much I miss you later."

……

Jiang Tingxia was not pregnant, so Li Dahua didn't have to take special care of her, nor did she have to stew some tonic soup. All of a sudden, she had nothing to do. She always felt that she was redundant, eating and drinking for free, and her heart was empty.

Fortunately, Li Changpu arranged a warehouse registration job for her in the agency's logistics department. Li Dahua focused more than half of her attention on the work, so she stopped thinking about trivial things and became much more cheerful.

Coincidentally, she also met Qi Dahai at work. Qi Dahai was responsible for transporting materials, and Li Dahua was a material checker, so she had a lot of contact with Qi Dahai.

The two had met several times before and had even caught chickens in the yard together. They felt familiar with each other. Li Dahua slowly understood why Qi Dahai's son Qi Xiaojun didn't speak.

It turned out that the house in Qi Dahai's hometown collapsed, and Qi Dahai's wife was hit by the beam while trying to save her son and died. Qi Xiaojun saw it with his own eyes and was shocked. The thick smoke also smoked his throat and he could no longer speak.

Poor people too.

Li Dahua felt sympathy for this family. Qi Dahai often needed to transport supplies, and when he was busy, Li Dahua would go to his house to help him look after the children for a few days.

Qi Xiaohong and Qi Xiaojun both liked Li Dahua very much, and the children of the two families could play together. As they interacted with each other, they got along more and more and found that their personalities were quite compatible. Gradually, they even developed some feelings between an adult man and a woman.

……

Li Changpu smelled a fishy smell and went into the kitchen, where she saw Li Dahua stirring a pot of black soup. "Sister, why are you making soup again?"

"It's still so greasy. I heard Xia doesn't like to drink this."

Li Dahua was busy putting ingredients in the pot. She grabbed a handful of wolfberries and threw them into the pot. "It's not for Tingxia."

She looked at Li Changpu and said mysteriously with a smile: "I made it for you, to nourish your body."

Li Changpu frowned and heard Li Dahua say, "You two have been married for so long, but Xia's stomach has not moved. I think you need to take good care of yourself."

"Give me the filler!" Li Changpu didn't know how to tell Li Dahua. After all, this was a matter of a man's dignity, so he immediately clarified, "I have no problem."

Li Dahua: "No problem? You and Tingxia have been married for so long, but you still don't have a child."

"You work so hard every day, your body is exhausted, how can you have a baby if you don't replenish your body?"

Li Dahua looked worried. "You said you didn't have a child and that worried me. Do you remember that our father had a second brother, our second uncle? He was in poor health and never had a child. In the end, he adopted a child from his own clan and raised him."

"I'm really worried that you might have the same problem. If that happens, our family will lose the incense from you."

Li Dahua advised Li Changpu, "Why don't you go to the hospital for a checkup."

Li Changpu's face was dark and he was speechless. "Sister, this is between me and Tingxia. Don't get involved. We are both fine."

Li Dahua didn't believe it and said, "This is not a matter of talking too hard."

"What's the point of being tough? It depends on the result."

She clapped her hands, "Do you have any results?"

"There is a neighbor next door to my husband's family. Her name is Granny Liu. She has been married to two men in her life. When she married the first man, she didn't give birth for seven or eight years. Her husband scolded her, saying that she lived in saline-alkali land and couldn't have children. But after Granny Liu married the second man, she had two babies in three years. She was so relieved. She said that whether or not you can have a baby can't be blamed solely on the woman's belly. The man is very important. If the man is in good health, it is easy for him to get pregnant. Otherwise, he won't get pregnant no matter how hard he tries."

"I see you..."

Li Changpu couldn't listen any more and didn't want to talk anymore. He turned around and was about to leave. Li Dahua called him, her tone very anxious, "Don't leave. You said you are already 25 this year, 26 in age, 27 in body, 28 in hair, you are almost 30. Ask around, people your age should have children already, but you don't have one yet, aren't you anxious!"

Li Changpu just said: "Big sister, the baby will come naturally when it is time, so don't worry about it."

Li Dahua: "You still don't want to listen to me. There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

"Having a baby is the most important thing for us. Drink the soup I made for you later."

"I will make soup for you every day from now on."

Li Changpu left, leaving behind his back, "I don't want to drink."

"I won't drink it anymore."

Seeing Li Changpu's resistance, Li Dahua became more suspicious that there was something wrong with him. She thought to herself, this is bad, could it be that he really can't have children?

Li Changpu didn't talk to her about this either. No matter what Li Dahua said, he refused to go to the hospital for a check-up. In Li Dahua's opinion, it seemed like he was hiding his illness and avoiding medical treatment, especially since Li Changpu told her not to talk about this in front of Jiang Tingxia.

It seems that he really has some hidden secret, hiding it from his eldest sister and his wife.

Li Dahua's world seemed to have collapsed.

After she had thought about it for a while, Li Dahua no longer dared to urge the couple to have a baby, for fear that her brother's wife would despise her brother for not being able to have children.

If that were the case, her brother Li Changpu would not only be childless, but if he wasn't careful, he could easily become wifeless.
