After the replacement of the military officer, the soft stepmother won

On the road, soldiers passing by looked at this scene in shock.

"Captain Lu, why are you running so fast? Is there some urgent mission?"

"Does it mean we need to prepare for emergency defense on our island?"

Everyone's expressions became serious.

After all, Captain Lu has always been a very steady person, and he only shows such a solemn expression when he is on an emergency mission.

Not long after, Lu Jingchuan ran away with two huge yellow-green durians in his arms.

Passing soldier: ...

"So... Captain Lu was in such a hurry to pick durian just now?"

"At the moment... it seems like this..."

"I understand now. It's because Captain Lu's wife likes to eat durian, so Captain Lu is so anxious!"

"Captain Lu really dotes on his wife!"

The big guy sighed.

Not long after, Lu Jingchuan returned home carrying the two big durians.

He placed the durian on the table, found a plate, peeled off the thick and sharp shell of the durian, and took out the plump golden flesh inside.

It’s bigger than Shen Li’s palm.

"Wife, open your mouth." The man stretched out his slender arm and handed the durian meat to Shen Li's lips.

Shen Li opened her lips and took a light bite.

The flesh has a rich and dense texture, with a solid feel. When you take a bite, the first thing that enters your mouth is a layer of delicious milk skin. After biting through the milk skin, you will find the durian flesh inside, which has a rich milky flavor.

delicious.

Shen Li smiled softly with her lips curved, the corners of her eyes slightly curved, she squinted her eyes and enjoyed the delicious food comfortably.

Just like a greedy little kitten.

She took the durian flesh and nibbled it in small bites.

Lu Jingchuan peeled the rest of the durian flesh and placed it on a plate.

This durian is very big, and it is also a gratitude durian. After peeling it, it can fill an entire plate.

Lu Jingchuan went to open another durian.

This plate is full, we need another one.

Lu Jingchuan brought two plates and placed the peeled durian on one of them. He took out plastic wrap from the refrigerator and covered the other plate first.

"Wait for me at home. I'm going to pick up the two kids from school." Lu Jingchuan said, looking at the clock on the wall.

"Okay." Shen Li took the durian and ate it, her lips curved and she smiled slightly.

On the way Lu Jingchuan picked up the two kids and went home——

"Duoduo, Minghui, you must take good care of mom from now on. You can't let mom worry about her, and you can't make her angry, okay?" Lu Jingchuan said with a serious expression.

"Yeah, we won't make mom angry! We all like mom very much!" Duoduo said in a baby voice.

Lu Minghui noticed that Lu Jingchuan was in a different mood than usual, "Dad, what happened?"

Lu Jingchuan touched Lu Minghui's head and raised the corners of his lips in relief, "It's your mother, she's pregnant."

"Mom is pregnant with a little brother or sister!" Duoduo's big black grape-like eyes opened wide with joy, and her little face was full of surprise.

Lu Minghui was also happy for Shen Li. He smiled, and his dark eyes became brighter. "How long has mom been pregnant?"

"Three weeks." Lu Jingchuan said, "Mom is weak, you have to take good care of her in the future. Don't make her angry or sad. You must help her with everything you can, understand?"

Lu Minghui nodded heavily, "Yes, I will definitely take good care of my mother!"

"Mom, can I touch your belly?" Duoduo looked at Shen Li with her black and bright eyes, eagerly, with anticipation and curiosity in her eyes.

Lu Jingchuan was about to say no, but Shen Li smiled and said, "Of course you can."

"Duoduo, you have to be careful." Lu Jingchuan said, "You have to be gentler, okay?"

"Yeah." Duoduo nodded obediently, and her hand carefully touched Shen Li's flat belly.

Her soft, white little hands were very, very careful. She only touched lightly and did not dare to use any force.

"Mom, your belly is smaller than mine!" Duoduo puffed out her round little belly. Her whole belly was a little bulging and round, but her mother's belly was different. Her mother's belly was very flat and had no fat at all.

Duoduo was a little curious, "There is actually a baby living in such a small belly... How small must the baby be..."

"The baby in my mother's belly...is probably only the size of a soybean now!" Shen Li said with a smile.

"The size of a soybean...that's the same size as my fingernail!" Duoduo raised her thumb and asked curiously.

"Yes." Shen Li chuckled, "When the month is a little later and my belly gets bigger, the fetus will take shape."

"You and your brother went through this when you were little," Shen Li said.

"Wow." Duoduo sat in front of Shen Li, looking at Shen Li's flat belly curiously.

"Mom, are you thirsty?" Lu Minghui looked at Shen Li with his dark eyes, and his tone when speaking to her became much gentler.

Shen Li shook her head.

"Mom, are you hot? Let me fan you." Lu Minghui found a palm-leaf fan and fanned Shen Li gently.

"Thank you, baby Minghui." Shen Li smiled and handed a peeled durian to Lu Minghui and also handed one to Duoduo.

Lu Minghui looked at Shen Li in shock.

What did he just hear...

His mother actually called him Minghui baby?

Minghui baby.

baby.

He is his mother's baby.

Lu Minghui fanned faster, his two little arms fanning vigorously, and his pair of dark eyes looked at Shen Li tenderly.

It's great to have a mother.

"Fan slowly, don't let your mother catch a cold." Lu Jingchuan laughed, "Women's body resistance is weak during pregnancy, you all have to be careful."

"Oh." Lu Minghui slowly fanned again.

……

Soon, the news of Shen Li's pregnancy spread throughout the island.

The next morning, the sisters-in-law spontaneously organized themselves to give gifts to Shen Li.

"We didn't disturb Sister Li's rest, did we?" Sister Narcissus came into the house and said with a smile.

"No, I got up before you came." Shen Li chuckled, "Come on, sisters-in-law, come in and sit down."

Today is the weekend and the two children don’t have to go to school, so they can stay at home.

Seeing his sisters-in-law coming, Lu Minghui took the initiative to make tea for everyone, pouring a cup for each person.

"Aunties, have some tea." Lu Minghui handed a cup of tea to each of them.

"Sister Li, you have raised your children really well!" Everyone praised with a smile, "Your two children are now more lively than the other, and they are fairer and more tender than before, with more flesh on their bodies, which is much better than before."

"Sister Li is really good at raising children. These two children are very polite and well-behaved." Everyone laughed.

"Sister Li, I heard that you were pregnant, so I brought you some country eggs. They were laid by the hens I raised in the yard. You should eat more to supplement your nutrition." Sister Narcissus said with a smile.

"Sister Narcissus, you are too polite." Shen Li chuckled.

"Sister Li, I brought you a box of milk to supplement your calcium." Sister Jinhua smiled.

"Thank you, Sister Jinhua."

"Sister Li, I made a pair of slippers for you. A woman's feet and legs will get swollen in the later stages of pregnancy. The slippers I made for you are made of Xinjiang cotton from our hometown. They are very soft and fluffy. They will be very comfortable for you to wear in the later stages of pregnancy or during the confinement period." As she spoke, Sister Zhang Ye took out a pair of light pink slippers from the cloth bag. There were small flowers embroidered on the uppers of the slippers, which looked fresh and elegant.

"Thank you, sister-in-law Ye." Shen Li took the slippers and touched them, smiling with delight, "Very soft and comfortable! Thank you, sister-in-law!"

"Lili, I don't have anything to prepare for you, so I made a pair of tiger-head shoes for your unborn baby." Lin Xuanxuan took out a pair of dark red tiger-head shoes.

The upper of the little tiger-head shoes is round, with a pattern of a little tiger with the word "king" written on its head embroidered with golden thread, and a small mustache sewn with golden thread. The embroidery is vivid and lifelike.

The shoes are designed with laces, and there are two small bells on both ends of the red straps, which are very cute.

"They look great!" Shen Li couldn't put down the shoes, "They're so cute!"

The little shoes made her heart soften.

Shen Li couldn't help but wonder what her child would look like when he was born.

Is the child a boy or a girl? Will he look more like Lu Jingchuan or more like me?

All these unknowns made her look forward to it, and she felt happy and excited in her heart.

The rest of the sisters-in-law also sent their blessings.

"Sisters-in-law, you are so polite." Shen Li felt the friendliness from the people on the island, and her heart was very warm. "Thank you, everyone."

When they arrived on the island, everyone took good care of her.

All the sisters-in-law are kind-hearted, good-hearted, simple and honest.

Every time I encounter something, they come to send blessings and warmth.

These days of being cared for by everyone made her feel very warm in her heart.

"What's there to thank me for?" Narcissus waved her hands. "After all, we should thank you. Look at the seafood truck you made. It increased the salary of all our men, and the benefits are much better than before! And the canned fruit also gives us, the military wives, an income. We no longer have to live in poverty. Moreover, the salary paid by the cannery is getting higher every month. Our lives are getting better and better! In the past, we couldn't even imagine this!"

"Yes, Sister Li, it would be great if you could marry Captain Lu earlier. If you could come to the island earlier, we could all live a good life with you!" everyone said excitedly.

"But you are pregnant, so you must not overwork yourself and you must take good care of yourself. Don't worry, we will all work as hard as before and make the canned food during your pregnancy! We will never let you down and will never cause you any trouble!" said everyone.

"Yeah." Shen Li chuckled.

After chatting with my sisters-in-law, it was time for them to leave.

Lin Xuanxuan was the last one to leave. She chatted with Shen Li for a long time before leaving.

"Li Li, my life has been getting much better recently," Lin Xuan Xuan looked at Shen Li with sparkling eyes, "I have money now, so I went to a department store outside and bought some clothes. I also bought some cosmetics. If it were in the past, my mother-in-law would definitely make things difficult for me and scold me, but I don't know what happened recently, her attitude towards me is much better than before, and my relationship with my boyfriend has also improved a lot..."

"That's good." Shen Li said with a smile, "It takes a hundred years to be able to ride the same boat, and a thousand years to sleep on the same pillow. You and your partner are destined to be together. You two should get along well."

I would rather demolish ten temples than ruin one marriage.

Since the relationship between the two has improved, everyone is happy.
