Chapter 796: Waiting for Our Baby to Arrive
The next day—the news of Jiang Baobao's pregnancy quickly reached the ears of Li Laoyezi.
Cai Xiaotang received word that Li Laoyezi wanted to have a meal with a few people close to him.
She hurriedly tidied herself up and rushed over; just as she arrived outside the door of the private room, she heard Li Laoyezi's hearty laughter.
"Hahaha! I'm going to have another little great-grandchild! A great-granddaughter would be nice too! It's just hard on the Jiang girl, having to go through the trouble again... Beijue, you must take good care of her during this time! If anything goes wrong, I'll hold you solely responsible!"
"Grandfather, please rest assured..."
Li Beijue hurriedly promised, lowering his eyes to look at Jiang Baobao's belly, his heart softening completely.
When Baobao was pregnant with those three little ones, he hadn't been by her side, which had caused her a lot of suffering...
This time, he would definitely take meticulous care of her throughout the whole process, waiting with her for their fourth baby to arrive...
Outside the door—Cai Xiaotang listened and couldn't help but smile along.
Immediately after, she heard—"Why are you standing there without moving?"
Li Xiao's voice appeared behind her.
"It's nothing." Cai Xiaotang snapped back to reality and hurriedly pushed the door open to walk in.
Following that, she heard—"Godmother! I'm going to have a little sister again!"
As soon as Mobai saw Cai Xiaotang, he stood excitedly on his chair, loudly announcing the good news.
Then, the moment he finished speaking, Tiantian chimed in from the side: "Why not a little brother! I think what's in Mommy's belly is definitely a little brother!"
"I like little sisters!"
Mobai was very insistent on his point of view: "Girls are so cute! Yanbao and I are already boys, but there's only Tiantian as a girl, so the next one must be a girl too! That way, Yanbao and I can protect you both together!"
"But little brothers are great too! If it's a little brother, he'll definitely be a gentle boy like Brother Yan! And he won't make me angry every day like Brother Mobai! Brother Yan, do you hope for a little brother or a little sister?"
As Tiantian finished speaking, she hurriedly tugged on Yanbao's arm.
Yanbao, innocently dragged into the "battlefield": "..."
Yanbao looked at Mobai, then at Tiantian, deliberated for two seconds, and then said somewhat apologetically: "Sorry, Tiantian, this time... I think the same as Mobai, I also hope it's a little sister..."
"Yay! I won!"
Mobai immediately jumped up with joy, not forgetting to make a face at Tiantian.
"Mommy! Look, Brother Mobai is bullying me again!"
The little girl Tiantian immediately pouted unhappily and loudly complained.
The adults at the table were all amused to laughter by the three little ones.
Jiang Baobao also hurriedly comforted them: "Alright, whether it's a little brother or a little sister, Mommy and Daddy love them both, so you all have to protect him together in the future, understand?"
"Understood!"
The three little ones answered in unison.
Cai Xiaotang had just wanted to chime in with a tease or two when she suddenly saw Li Laoyezi looking at her!
The words on the tip of her tongue stopped instantly.
Cai Xiaotang suddenly felt a familiar premonition.
Sure enough, the next second—"Xiao Tang, you and Li Xiao have been married for so long now, how are you considering... the matter of children? If you don't hurry up..."
As Li Laoyezi spoke, he glanced at Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue opposite them.
Cai Xiaotang's expression turned somewhat subtle, and she suddenly remembered last night's events again.
She and Li Xiao...
That matter really hadn't even begun yet...
Cai Xiaotang was just pondering how to answer when she suddenly heard Li Xiao speaking unhurriedly beside her: "Dad, stop urging us, we... are working on it."
He said it openly and honestly.
Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue opposite them were stunned.
Then they looked over, deep in thought.
Especially Jiang Baobao, who was practically staring right through Cai Xiaotang!
Cai Xiaotang's mind went blank for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she pinched Li Xiao's thigh hard!
Does this guy have no filter on his mouth!
How could he dare to say anything!
Mobai and the others were still here!
It's over now...
Li Laoyezi will definitely be even more focused on this matter...
Cai Xiaotang glared at Li Xiao, and immediately after, she heard Li Laoyezi cough lightly and say with satisfaction: "As long as you have that intention, then I can rest easy..."
Before the old man could finish his sentence—Mobai suddenly asked curiously: "Is Godmother going to have a baby too? So how do babies get into Mommy's belly?"
"That's right! Why are they in Mommy's belly?"
Tiantian also asked a question.
Yanbao looked up at Li Beijue, then at Jiang Baobao, with a look of intense thirst for knowledge.
The air suddenly went quiet.
The adults at the table looked at one another, their expressions varied.
Li Xiao hadn't expected that a single sentence of his would actually stir up the curiosity of the three little ones; he was practically holding back laughter until he was internally injured.
After a long while—"That question, it's a secret."
Li Xiao suddenly spoke, drawing the attention of the three little ones over.
Then he looked at Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue with ill intent and continued: "Everyone is different, so for this question, you have to wait until there's no one else around to ask your Daddy and Mommy, and you must never let anyone else know!"
Upon hearing this, the three little ones nodded in sudden realization.
"So that's how it is! Then Daddy and Mommy can tell us about it when we go back! We promise not to tell anyone else!"
Jiang Baobao: "..."
Li Xiao was far too slick at passing the buck!
How was she supposed to answer that?
"Pfft—"
Cai Xiaotang couldn't hold back a laugh and cast a sympathetic glance at Jiang Baobao.
Li Beijue, meanwhile, shot a glare at Li Xiao and silently made a mental note against him.
"Alright, hurry up and eat. You three have been chattering away for ages, aren't you hungry?"
Li Laoyezi spoke up, taking the initiative to serve some vegetables to the three little ones.
The topic was finally put to rest.
Cai Xiaotang, however, suddenly thought of something and took the opportunity to bring it up: "Right, Dad, since you're going to be staying here for a while, Li Xiao and I will move back first..."
"Fine, you two go back first. You've worked hard keeping me company all this time..."
Li Laoyezi agreed readily, then gave Li Xiao a subtle look.
Once they got back, he should hurry up and get her to give him a grandchild!
Li Xiao successfully received the signal and shook his head inwardly with amusement.
As for children...
He wasn't in any rush at all.
Because a certain little pufferfish didn't seem to have fully opened up and surrendered herself to him yet.
But there was no need to rush; she couldn't run away anyway.
He had plenty of time to take it slow with her.
After finishing the meal, Cai Xiaotang and Li Xiao returned to their previous villa.
Standing in the long-missed living room, Cai Xiaotang stretched contentedly.
"I'm going upstairs for a nap, don't disturb me unless it's important..."
She tossed out the words and headed straight for the stairs, feeling a bit giddy at the thought of finally being able to live alone again.
She had been nearly teased to death by Li Xiao during this time!
She needed to calm down properly!
Downstairs—Li Xiao watched Cai Xiaotang's back disappear, then cast his gaze toward his subordinate to the side.
The other party immediately leaned in and made an "OK" gesture at Li Xiao.
"Rest assured, Shura, everything has been taken care of!"
