Li Xixue narrowed her eyes.

Her chicken leg was gone, and she couldn't even reach the plate of ribs on the table with her chopsticks. Song Qiulan carried the bowl of soup around a bend, but there wasn't any for her either. In the end, she picked up two bites of vegetables.

My own brother, my own mother!

"Cough cough."

Li Xixue coughed deliberately.

however.

Nobody paid any attention to her.

Li Xiaochen continued to serve food to Lu Yang, just like a little fanboy.

Song Qiulan was wondering if the dishes she had made would suit Lu Yang's taste.

OK OK.

Li Xixue took a deep breath.

She coughed again.

Li Xiaochen finally turned her head and asked, "Sis, is your throat sore? If it is, remember to drink more hot water."

"I……"

Li Xixue wished she could elbow him.

Forget it.

Don't be angry, don't be angry~

Throughout the meal, Li Xiaochen's mouth never stopped. He kept serving food to Lu Yang and asking him how he had won over his sister. Song Qiulan scolded him while laughing along. Only Li Xixue remained silent and ate her rice quietly.

After the meal.

Li Xiaochen lingered next to Lu Yang, calling him "brother-in-law" on the left and "brother-in-law" on the right.

Song Qiulan carried her bag and walked to the entrance.

"Xiao Chen, let's go, don't linger here."

Li Xiaochen looked reluctant: "Mom, my brother-in-law and I haven't finished talking yet!"

"Let's talk another day. The young couple needs to rest. What are you doing here?"

"I'm not in the way, even my brother-in-law doesn't mind..."

Song Qiulan gave him a sharp look.

Li Xiaochen could only sheepishly follow, saying, "Brother-in-law, let's talk again next time!"

Before leaving, Song Qiulan took Lu Yang's hand and patted it twice.

"Xiaoyang, thank you for your hard work today. Auntie will come over another time when you have time."

"Okay, Auntie."

Song Qiulan smiled and winked at him.

"By the way, about what happened earlier, Auntie was serious. You should seize the day while you're young."

Lu Yang: "..."

Done.

Song Qiulan pulled Li Xiaochen away.

The door closed.

The room became quiet instantly.

Lu Yang turned around and exhaled.

Li Xixue sat in the corner of the sofa, her legs curled up, seemingly angry about something. The remote control was on her lap as she stared at the TV, watching some kind of health program.

But she wasn't looking at it at all.

Lu Yang sat down at the other end of the sofa, with a cushion separating the two of them.

Neither of them spoke.

The health expert on TV is talking about the benefits of soaking goji berries in water.

There was a moment of silence.

Lu Yang spoke first: "Your mother told me something before she left."

Li Xixue didn't turn around: "What is it?"

"She told us to hurry up...and have a baby."

The remote control slid off Li Xixue's knee.

It fell onto the carpet with a thud.

"She... is talking nonsense."

"Yeah?"

Lu Yang tilted his head to look at her.

At this moment, Li Xixue buried half of her face in her knees.

at this time.

A health expert on TV suddenly said, "The best age for women to have children is between 25 and 30. If you want your wife to have children, you should do it sooner rather than later."

The two of them looked at the television at the same time.

Then they turned back at the same time.

The expert on TV is still talking.

"Especially with the high pressure of modern work, both men and women should plan ahead."

"Especially women!"

"What if you miss the optimal age for women to have children..."

In a panic, Li Xixue reached for the remote control on the carpet and slammed the TV off.

She lifted her face off her knees, the redness around her ears still lingering.

This TV is such an eyesore!

The TV screen is black.

She tried to calm herself down.

But upon closer reflection...

Although TV programs may exaggerate to some extent, I am indeed at the best age for childbearing now, and it is indeed time to prepare for pregnancy.

wrong.

What am I thinking?

Li Xixue quickly shook her head.

Why did I suddenly have the idea of ​​wanting to have a child?

"actually……"

Lu Yang said quite naturally:

"I think since your mother has spoken up, we can't just stay silent."

"So what did you accept?"

"I was just asking for your opinion."

Li Xixue put her legs down and changed her sitting posture.

She crossed her arms over her chest and her tone returned to normal: "I have no objection."

"Does 'no objection' mean it's okay?"

"Having no opinion means I don't want to discuss it."

Lu Yang responded with an "oh".

Li Xixue couldn't hold back any longer.

"And you?"

"What about me?"

"What...are you thinking?"

After she finished speaking, she looked away and didn't dare to look at him.

Lu Yang thought for a moment and said, "I think that although we can't rush this, since we've brought it up, we should at least have a plan."

"planning?"

"Yes, for example, how many we need, when we need them, these things need to be discussed."

Li Xixue tilted her head to look at him, a smirk playing on her lips: "How many more do you want? Can't you be normal for once?"

"I'm just communicating with you normally."

Lu Yang spread his hands. "Then you tell me first, how many do you want? One, two, or three?"

Li Xixue pursed her lips: "...Who said I wanted it?"

Lu Yang countered, "But they didn't say no, did they?"

"..."

Li Xixue couldn't find a rebuttal for a moment.

Lu Yang stroked his chin: "I think three is about right."

"Three?"

Li Xixue turned her head and stared at him.

"Do you think this is raising chickens to breed?"

How can you say that?

Li Xixue sat up straight: "Three is too many."

Lu Yang immediately followed up: "Then the two?"

"There are many."

"One and a half?"

Li Xixue's face darkened slightly: "Where did you get one and a half?"

Her fingers curled slightly on the sofa.

"...at most one."

Her voice was very low.

Lu Yang laughed: "One is fine too, gender doesn't matter, as long as the man looks like me and the woman looks like you."

Li Xixue crossed her arms and nodded thoughtfully.

Okay, then I'll take one.

one……

Huh?

and many more……

Her brow twitched slightly, and her mind finally caught on.

I thought back to the conversation we just had.

So, I've... agreed?

This guy didn't ask for her opinion at all, from beginning to end.

Start with three and cut down to one...

I've actually gotten myself into his trap!

Li Xixue stared at Lu Yang, who was leaning innocently on the sofa.

She was so angry she felt a little itchy.

"Lu Yang".

"Um?"

"Did you do this on purpose?"

Lu Yang blinked: "What do you mean by intentionally? I was just communicating with you normally. You said one yourself, I didn't force you. Although one is a bit few, since it's my wife's opinion, I have to listen to it."

Li Xixue grabbed a cushion from the side and threw it at him.

Lu Yang caught it easily and said with a smile, "Violence cannot solve problems."

"But it can solve your problem."

"So, does what you just said stand true?"

Li Xixue paused.

Lu Yang tilted his head to look at her, the smile still on his face.

"You're kidding me!"

Li Xixue turned her head away, not wanting to pay attention to him.

Lu Yang smiled and said, "Alright, if you don't agree, that's fine. You can talk to your aunt yourself later."

Although she appeared cold on the surface, she didn't actually refuse!

This woman is just saying no!
