Chapter 59 How many children do you think we should have?
What do you mean by "it won't really hurt my life"?

Wen Ci narrowed her eyes in anger and gritted her teeth, saying, "Huo Jingyuan, are you an idiot? Next time you encounter this situation, please just grab me with your bare hands."

Hearing Wen Ci's reproachful tone, Huo Jingyuan nodded. In the past, he was all alone and could risk his life, trading one life for another.

not now.

He had a gentle response.

Before she had finished eating, Wen Ci heard the chattering of children outside the yard. Looking at the food left uneaten on the table, she sighed softly, "Go heat it up in the kitchen, and I'll open the door for the children."

"it is good."

Immediately, Wen Ci got up from the chair, went to the yard to open the gate, and Xiang Qin, who was with several children, saw Wen Ci and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to trouble you with the children."

Wen Ci's gaze fell on the children. It's normal for boys who have gone to school to be naughty and dirty after a day of school.

But Little Monkey and the others had clearly taken a shower and changed into clean clothes before coming over; Ahua's hair was still a bit damp.

"Sister Qin, why are you all so particular?"

Water resources are scarce in the Northwest Military Region, making bathing a troublesome affair. She bathed only once every two or three days on average, and when she didn't bathe, she would just wipe herself down.

Xiang Qin smiled awkwardly.

Wen Ci continued, "You can't expect the child to shower every time they come over, can you? Don't you adults use water either?"

"Uh-huh."

Wen Ci's eyes curved into a smile: "Then, Sister Qin, please come in and have a seat?"

"No need," Xiang Qin quickly refused. She pointed to the family dormitory building and said, "Many families have moved here, we'll go help them. We'll come pick up the children in a bit."

As the old saying goes...

A close neighbor is worse than a distant relative.

Having a good neighbor is a wonderful thing.

"Do you need my help?"

"Need not."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiang Qin left with peace of mind.

Wen Ci held Xiao Shitou's hand in her left hand and Ahua's hand in her right, while Awang followed behind the little monkey. Xiao Shitou asked in a childish voice, "Brother Yuan said that there is a strange uncle at the pretty sister's house."

The little monkey's real name is Li Tianyuan.

Wen Ci smiled, her lips curving upwards.

She's a beautiful older sister, and Huo Jingyuan is a strange older brother.

Wen Ci glanced at the man reheating the food in the living room, made a shushing gesture, and whispered, "Don't let that weird uncle hear us talking about him behind his back."

The children nodded solemnly.

Wen Ci couldn't stop laughing.

At this moment, the tall man standing at the doorway of the inner room leaned against the door, his gaze fixed on Wen Ci, who was laughing hysterically. He raised an eyebrow slightly, his mouth open but silent:
"What are you laughing at?"

Wen Ci shook her head, mimicking his silent words: "None of your business!"
-
Wen Ci put them on the "Seven-Colored Deer" channel, which would be rebroadcast every day. They arrived just in time, at the beginning.

"Have you eaten?" Wen Ci asked.

She asked Huo Jingyuan to reheat the food, and if the children hadn't eaten, they could all sit down and eat together.

"Eat up!"

Wen Ci nodded: "Then you guys watch TV obediently."

As she spoke, she returned to the dining table. She had been sitting with her back to the living room TV, so she simply sat down next to Huo Jingyuan and asked softly:

How many children do you think we should have?

"One."

Huo Jingyuan's eyelids drooped slightly.

He doesn't like sons; a daughter would be fine.

"You're sexist?!"

Huo Jingyuan reached out and put his arm around Wen Ci's slender waist, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "What do you mean by favoring sons over daughters? I only like daughters."
