Chapter 1823: Feifei is Pregnant

Everyone had originally thought that Zihan was just stimulated and wouldn't be able to hold on for long before reverting to his old ways, but he actually persisted for a long time!

It was as if he had become a different person.

His family gradually accepted this version of Zihan; actually, it was quite good—once you've been hurt by love, you won't go around hurting others.

The love nest of Litian and Feifei.

Litian returned home from work, and Feifei had already arrived, but she hadn't cooked; the kitchen was cold and empty, and she sat on the sofa with a shy expression.

"Hey, why didn't you cook?"

"I didn't want to."

"Alright, then let's go out to eat."

"Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating. You really are a block of wood," Feifei chided.

Litian was completely bewildered: "What's wrong with me?"

Forget it, who knows how long it would take for him to figure it out on his own.

Feifei beckoned him over: "Come here, I have something to tell you."

"Hmm."

He sat beside his fiancée, and Feifei grabbed his hand and placed it on her lower belly: "In here, there is your child."

"You're pregnant?"

Litian was pleasantly surprised.

"Yes."

"Let me touch, let me touch."

In truth, you couldn't feel anything yet, but both of them were very happy, cautiously touching the belly, feeling the joy of a little life about to arrive.

"I'll call Mom and tell her..."

Just as Litian took out his phone, it was snatched away by Feifei.

"If you tell her now, wouldn't that put Mother in a difficult position?"

"Right, let me think..."

Feifei was pregnant, so naturally, the two of them had to get married immediately.

But Zichen, the older brother, wasn't married yet; for them to marry first didn't follow the rules—the rules passed down by the elders in Jiangzhou state that the children in the family must marry in order.

If a younger brother gets married before the older brother, it will suppress the older brother's fortune, and he will never be able to get ahead in life.

Litian was troubled: "What should we do?"

Since the child was conceived, it had to be born, but if he rushed to marry before his older brother, he was afraid of suppressing his brother's good fortune, so he was very conflicted.

The two discussed it for a long time and came up with what they thought was the best solution.

It would be best if the older brother and Gu Yuxin could get engaged and married before them; that would be the best outcome!

In any case, they had been together for many years, their relationship had always been stable, and marriage was just a natural progression.

Once they had the idea, they immediately put it into action; Litian found Zichen and asked him when he planned to get married.

The sudden, out-of-the-blue question caught Zichen off guard: "Why are you being so gossipy? You don't need to worry about my affairs."

"It's not that, Feifei is pregnant."

Zichen laughed: "Feifei is pregnant... that's your business, it's a good thing. Why are you urging me instead of planning your own wedding?"

Litian: "You are my older brother. If I get married before you, it will suppress your fortune, which isn't good for you."

"Hahahahahahahaha..."

Zichen couldn't stop laughing.

He finally managed to stop laughing, and clutching his stomach, he said: "Ouch, you're killing me. You're a university teacher, aren't you? How is your thinking still stuck in our grandparents' generation?"

"What 'suppressing fortune' nonsense? I don't believe in that. You two go ahead and get married as normal, don't worry about me."

"No, if I get married before you, I won't feel right!" Litian glared at his older brother; he couldn't understand what was so funny.

Litian was the type of person who, once he set his mind on something, couldn't be pulled back by eight oxen.

Zichen had no choice but to take a step back: "How about this, I'll discuss it with Yuxin. If she agrees, we'll get married first; if she doesn't agree, you two get married first, okay?"

"Why wouldn't she agree? You've been together for so many years. I think it's just that you haven't proposed. Girls are thin-skinned, how could she be embarrassed to say it first? If you bring it up, she'll definitely agree."

Litian was full of confidence; one could only say he really didn't understand Gu Yuxin's personality.

If Gu Yuxin wanted to get married, she wouldn't care who proposed first.

Zichen called Gu Yuxin in front of him, but no one answered!

"Maybe she's in class. I'll leave her a WeChat message, and I'll tell you when she replies."

"Alright, Big Brother, then I'll go back to class too. Don't forget to tell me."

"I know, hurry off."

Litian left, and Zichen immediately called his mother to tell her about Lu Feifei's pregnancy.

"What, Feifei is pregnant? Oh my, that's a good thing... How are these two children's minds even older than mine? Alright, I know!"

Shi Youxuan hung up on her son and told her husband beside her: "Feifei is pregnant, but Litian wants to marry after Zichen because he's afraid of suppressing Zichen's fortune."

Sheng Hanyu then suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's why they haven't married yet? These two children are truly good children; good children shouldn't be let down. Those are rules from how many years ago? Nobody cares about that stuff anymore. You go pay them a visit and make our stance clear."

Shi Youxuan glared at him: "You're not going?"

"I'm not going. You just need to go for this kind of thing; it's useless if I go."

He was right; it wouldn't help if he went. For many years, Shi Youxuan had been the one making the decisions on these matters.

Shi Youxuan immediately rushed over, bringing high-quality bird's nest and tonics, appearing at their door with bags in hand.

"Mom, why are you here?" Litian was dumbfounded.

The two of them were still waiting for news from his older brother, but instead of the brother's news, they had waited for his mother to arrive.

"Are you going to help? Do you want me to carry these in by myself?" Shi Youxuan reminded him.

Only then did Litian remember to help carry the things; Feifei also wanted to help, but was stopped.

"No, no, you mustn't touch these heavy items; just keep me company and chat with me in a while."

Shi Youxuan took her hand, and the two of them sat on the sofa, leaving Litian to busy himself in the kitchen.

"How far along are you?"

"Only two months."

"You need to be careful during this time; don't get angry, don't do any chores, and let Litian do all the housework. My suggestion is that you hire a nanny to take care of your daily needs; I'm worried that Litian won't take good care of you..."

Shi Youxuan used a consultative tone to suggest hiring a nanny to Lu Feifei.

If she were an ordinary mother-in-law, she might have just sent a nanny over directly.

But she thought about it for a moment; young people nowadays like to have their own private space, and it was hard to say whether a nanny she sent would be to their liking. What if they didn't want an outsider in their home?

So, she did not make the decision on her own, but instead handed over a bank card.

"Feifei, you are not allowed to refuse. I know you are both good children, but there are many things that need to be prepared, so you can prepare the things I haven't considered yourselves."

"There will be many places where you'll need money in the future. If you don't take it, it means you're being distant, and it means you don't like me..."

With her putting it that way, there was simply no way to refuse.

Litian laughed from the side: "Mom, the last time you gave us money, I donated it all. Aren't you afraid I'll donate this money too?"
