Chapter 1676
That afternoon, Su Xinghui pushed away several social engagements and went home for dinner as usual. Since Lu Xiaoya became pregnant, Su Xinghui rarely ate outside. Basically, he had to go home for lunch and dinner every day to accompany Lu Xiaoya to eat, because women at this time really need their husband's company.
Su Xinghui might not have known this before, but with Guo Suhua's reminder and the doctor's warning, Su Xinghui naturally understood. If women don't get enough care and warmth when they are pregnant, they may have problems with their emotions, and even suffer from postpartum depression after giving birth.
Su Xinghui didn't want to let Lu Xiaoya become mentally depressed because of his negligence.
Returning home, Lu Xiaoya was sitting on the sofa reading those books about child-rearing, and Li Shuqin was cooking in the kitchen. Su Xinghui took off his coat, put down his bag, washed his hands and face, walked to Lu Xiaoya, and kissed Lu Xiaoya's cheek with a smile.
Although they had been married for more than a month, Lu Xiaoya was still a bit shy. She said, "Be careful, Auntie Li is in the kitchen."
Su Xinghui sat down beside her and said, "It's okay, she is cooking. In the time it takes to kiss like this, she can't come out."
Lu Xiaoya said, "You still have to be careful. If you want to kiss, you have to go to the room."
Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Then let's go in now."
Lu Xiaoya was startled and said, "How can that be? We're about to eat."
Su Xinghui was just joking. He laughed, grabbed one of Lu Xiaoya's hands, and held it in his hand. He didn't have any other actions, but Lu Xiaoya could feel Su Xinghui's love.
Lu Xiaoya looked at Su Xinghui. She suddenly bit her lip and then made up her mind. She asked in a voice smaller than a mosquito, "Are you holding back very hard during this period?"
Su Xinghui was a bit puzzled. Why did Lu Xiaoya ask this? Of course, he was holding back very hard, but he couldn't let Lu Xiaoya know this, otherwise Lu Xiaoya would definitely feel bad.
He smiled and said, "Not really, I can hold back."
Lu Xiaoya leaned close to Su Xinghui and said in a voice smaller than a mosquito, "Shall I help you come out tonight?"
Su Xinghui said, "How will you help me come out?"
Lu Xiaoya said with a blushing face, "Using my mouth and hands."
Su Xinghui suddenly felt that a certain part of his body had changed. Lu Xiaoya, who was so conservative, actually took the initiative to tell him this. It was too exciting. He took a deep breath and barely suppressed his surging blood and energy, saying, "Okay."
The couple looked into the kitchen together. Li Shuqin hadn't come out yet. They looked at each other and smiled, as if they shared a secret together, and Su Xinghui was also full of expectations for the night.
After a while, Li Shuqin finished making all the dishes. She brought out several dishes, including potato-stewed pork ribs, tomato-scrambled eggs, green vegetables, and a bowl of local chicken soup.
Lu Xiaoya got up to serve rice. Li Shuqin said, "Miss Lu, you sit down, I'll serve rice."
Lu Xiaoya smiled and said, "Auntie Li, it's okay, the doctor said I can't just sit, I have to exercise often."
Su Xinghui also said, "Auntie Li, just let her serve rice herself."
Li Shuqin had no choice but to follow Lu Xiaoya into the kitchen, watching Lu Xiaoya nervously from behind, fearing that Lu Xiaoya would slip. Lu Xiaoya served two bowls of rice and went out. Li Shuqin served a bowl of rice for herself and also went to the living room to eat.
Li Shuqin originally wanted to eat alone on the side. She felt that a nanny couldn't eat at the same table as the host, but Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya insisted that she eat with them. They said there were only three people in the family, and if they didn't eat together, how unlively it would be. Li Shuqin had no choice but to obey.
Lu Xiaoya picked up her rice bowl and ate it sweetly. Her pregnancy reaction was very severe at first, but after about a month, her pregnancy reaction was not so severe. Li Shuqin's food was also very fragrant. Now Lu Xiaoya's appetite was very good, she could eat two bowls of rice in one meal, and she ate a lot of vegetables, which made Su Xinghui very happy.
Su Xinghui asked casually while eating, "Auntie Li, were you a worker in the printing factory before?"
Li Shuqin nodded and said, "Yes, I was before. The factory collapsed the year before last, and we were all laid off."
Li Shuqin was not as reserved as when she first came. This was not only because she had lived here for a few days and was familiar with Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya, but more importantly, Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya were people who respected others very much. They didn't treat Li Shuqin as a servant at all. Now that Li Shuqin lived in their home, they treated Li Shuqin as a family member.
This was not only reflected in letting Li Shuqin eat at the same table as them, but also in many details. For example, they let Li Shuqin eat fruits, and it was not with a charitable attitude. Every time Su Xinghui bought a lot of fruits, he would tell Li Shuqin to help eat some, otherwise they would go bad. Not only did Li Shuqin eat the fruits, but it also seemed like Li Shuqin helped them.
When they went to work, they wouldn't close their bedroom doors or lock the drawers in their rooms tightly, as if they were guarding against thieves. They went out very casually, and when they went out, they would greet Li Shuqin, just like greeting family members.
Su Xinghui didn't ask Li Shuqin to report accounts every day for the money for buying groceries, calculating every penny clearly, like some families. Sometimes, they even secretly went to the market to ask about vegetable prices, and they would raise questions if there was a difference of a few cents per jin. Su Xinghui didn't ask at all. When Li Shuqin wanted to report accounts to him, he waved his hand and said no need.
In short, they were very careful in many details, paying attention to protecting Li Shuqin's self-esteem. Li Shuqin had worked as a part-time worker or nanny for many families, but she really met people like Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya for the first time. She said in her heart that she really met a good family.
During this period, Li Shuqin ate well, slept well, and the work was not tiring. Every day she just cooked and cleaned up. Clothes were washed by the washing machine. There were only three people living there, so the housework was really not much. This period was the most comfortable time she had ever had.
When Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya went to work, Li Shuqin could take time to go home and tidy up the housework at home. Her husband saw that she had gained weight and her complexion had improved. After asking about her situation in County Magistrate Su's home, he also said she had found a good family.
Su Xinghui asked, "Then how did your factory collapse?"
Bringing up this topic, Li Shuqin stopped her chopsticks, looking like she wanted to say something but stopped. After a while, she sighed and said, "Sigh, it's hard to say in a few words. The efficiency of state-owned enterprises now is not good."
After saying this, Li Shuqin began to eat with her chopsticks. Seeing this, Su Xinghui felt a bit suspicious. He originally just asked casually, but Li Shuqin's performance seemed to have some hidden secrets.
Of course, with Li Shuqin like this now, it was not easy for him to ask further.
After dinner, Su Xinghui accompanied Lu Xiaoya for a walk in the county party committee compound, and went home after eight o'clock. Su Xinghui took a shower first and then went to bed. He was full of excitement and expectation.
Lu Xiaoya also took a shower. She entered the room, turned off the light directly, and then went to bed. After a rustling sound, she got into the quilt. Su Xinghui found that she had taken off all her clothes, and he was suddenly excited and unable to hold back.
Lu Xiaoya helped Su Xinghui take off his clothes, and then a busy time began, using her mouth, hands, and other parts to make Su Xinghui comfortable, and then there was a cleanup of the battlefield, before she got back into the quilt, held Su Xinghui, and lay down.
Lu Xiaoya asked softly, "Is it comfortable?"
Su Xinghui said, "Comfortable."
Lu Xiaoya said, "Is it as comfortable as that?"
Su Xinghui said, "Of course not." ===== CHAPTER 1678 =====
