Chapter 1002: Love Is Mutual

Qiu Shaofeng hurried out of the house: "Chuxue, Yan Cheng, quick... you've arrived."

He had meant to say "Hurry inside," but remembering his daughter-in-law was in confinement, his sister-in-law was naturally fine, but this future brother-in-law certainly wouldn't be convenient to enter their room, so he quickly changed his words.

Qiu Mu also reacted at this moment: "You take Yan Cheng and your uncle to our room to warm up; I will take Chuxue and your aunt inside."

Saying this, she beckoned the two to go to Xia Qiu's room.

The woman actually understood a lot; after entering the door, she did not rush toward the child, but stood in the middle of the room to let her body warm up, only then smiling as she went to the head of the kang: "How is it? Has the milk come down?"

Xia Qiu had seen this woman before; she called out "Aunt," then smiled and replied: "It has come down, enough to eat."

Yet her eyes kept staring at Chuxue: "Sister, did you set out early this morning?"

Chuxue smiled at her: "Mm, Yan Cheng and I caught the earliest bus; luckily we didn't delay too much at home, otherwise we surely wouldn't have caught the bus."

Because the ox cart was still waiting outside, after the woman saw the child and praised them at length, she took her leave.

After exchanging pleasantries with Chuxue, Qiu Mu went out first to see her off.

Chuxue looked at Xia Qiu: "How have these few days been?"

Xia Qiu naturally understood what she meant; she spoke softly: "With your brother-in-law mediating in between, it's been quite good; besides, this is the eldest grandson of the second branch, so my mother-in-law naturally cares very much; how could she possibly neglect her eldest grandson's mouth?"

Seeing joy in her eyebrows and eyes, Chuxue couldn't help but feel happy for her: "I brought quite a lot of things for you; combined with what your brother-in-law and your mother-in-law prepared, this confinement period will surely make you more plump, and the little one will definitely eat his fill."

Now that her body was warm enough, she walked toward her own nephew: "Yo, in just a few days, you've grown quite a bit; by the way, have you named him yet?"

Xia Qiu looked at her son and smiled: "Before, the two of us agreed that if it's a boy, he'll be called Li Jun, Qiu Lijun, with the nickname Junjun."

Chuxue bent down to look at the awake little one: "Junjun, I'm Second Aunt; call me Second Aunt."

As soon as she said this, Xia Qiu burst out laughing: "How old is he? You're making him call Second Aunt."

Saying this, she looked at her son and teased the child: "Look at your Second Aunt; she's really putting my Junjun in a difficult spot, isn't she?"

Chuxue also laughed: "It's fine; he can't call it now, but one day he will; Second Aunt is just waiting."

At this moment, Xia Qiu saw the backpack on the floor and said with a look of feigned reproach: "You've gone through the house and gathered all the good things for me; Mom is still carrying a baby, so you can't just focus on me."

Chuxue, while teasing her nephew, replied: "Mom's share is certainly not lacking; things aren't like before; Dad now gets his wages on schedule, plus various coupons; I also bring things home from time to time, so Mom's mouth won't suffer."

"You are breastfeeding now, so during confinement you naturally must eat better to improve the quality of your milk; my nephew can then absorb more nutrition and grow strong."

Hearing her own sister's words, Xia Qiu's eyes immediately turned red.

Chuxue looked up, seeing her like this: "What's wrong? Moved again?"

Xia Qiu, who had originally wanted to express some feelings, was directly made to laugh by her words: "You are truly annoying."

Thinking of what Xia Qiu had done for the original body: "Sister, originally you could have attended high school, but just so we would be less criticized by the Liu family, and so Mom and Dad wouldn't be caught in the middle in a difficult position, you chose to return home to work in the fields for work points; how could I not keep that in my heart?"
