70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 115: Mom’s Pregnant?!!
"Qing, we’re not suitable for each other." Xu Mumu looked at the shy young man in front of her, feeling a bit complicated.
"Why?" Zhao Qing didn’t expect Xu Mumu to refuse so straightforwardly and felt a bit disappointed.
"Qing, you’re not my type, and I don’t plan on dating anyone for now." Xu Mumu looked at Zhao Qing apologetically.
"We can give it a try. How can you know it’s not suitable until you try? I will treat you well." Zhao Qing looked at Xu Mumu sadly, still hoping to make an effort.
"Why force it?" Xu Mumu sighed helplessly.
"Mumu, do you have someone you like?" Zhao Qing pursed his lips.
"No, I just haven’t met anyone I like yet." Xu Mumu shook her head.
"Is there something wrong with me? I can change." Zhao Qing felt as if his heart had fallen to the bottom.
"No, you’re fine." Xu Mumu felt a bit of a headache.
After a long silence, Zhao Qing finally spoke, his voice a bit choked, "I understand. Will we still be friends in the future?"
"Of course, as long as Qing doesn’t get mad at me." Xu Mumu breathed a sigh of relief.
After sending Zhao Qing away, Xu Mumu felt a pang of guilt, as if she had picked on such a young and innocent person.
"How long are you going to watch?" Xu Mumu looked over at a nearby haystack.
"Caught me." Yin Yang came out, a little embarrassed, "Sorry, I was just passing by, do you believe me?"
"Yin Zhiqing seems quite free." Xu Mumu looked at Yin Yang with a half-smile; this guy was really something. Yin Yang had been over there since she and Zhao Qing arrived.
"Not really, someone was confessing to you, after all. The captain’s family has good conditions. Why didn’t you agree?" Yin Yang looked at Xu Mumu, his tone having a hint of jealousy he was unaware of.
"Just didn’t like him, really didn’t expect Yin Zhiqing to be such a gossip." Xu Mumu said with a smile. She was selfish; she loved herself more. When it came to dating, she felt that even if she found someone, it had to be someone she liked and who liked her more in return. She didn’t want to be the one who gave more.
Having experienced so much in the post-apocalypse, she felt she wanted to find someone to spend her life with, but her requirements were so high that finding the right person seemed unlikely.
Anyway, the future would be more open; even if she didn’t get married, as long as she had money, life would still be enjoyable.
"Then what kind of person does Mr. Xu like?" Yin Yang’s eyes flashed as he looked at the graceful girl in front of him. He wasn’t unfamiliar with girls prettier than Xu Mumu, yet she was the one who attracted him the most.
"I like good-looking ones." Xu Mumu glanced over at Yin Yang’s face; this face was really good-looking, but unfortunately, it was Yin Yang’s, which was a bit of a pity.
"What else?"
"Why are you asking?" Xu Mumu said with a smile.
"Seeing if I meet Mr. Xu’s spouse selection criteria." Yin Yang curved his lips.
"That’s really a pity; I won’t marry a Zhiqing." Xu Mumu chuckled, what was this guy about, teasing her?
"Indeed, it’s a pity." Yin Yang smiled.
"I have things to do; I’ll be going." Xu Mumu looked at Yin Yang, once again pitying that face. If Zhao Qing had such a face, maybe she might have agreed.
Watching Xu Mumu leave, the smile on Yin Yang’s face vanished, and then he headed towards the county town.
This small episode didn’t linger in Xu Mumu’s mind. When she returned home, everyone seemed quite happy, almost too happy.
"Mom, didn’t you go to work today?" Seeing her mom gnawing on pumpkin seeds at home, Xu Mumu raised an eyebrow. Was it her mom’s turn to be lazy today?
"Sis, mom is going to have a little brother. I’m about to become a brother!" Xu Minglei brought a bowl of hot water to their mother.
"What did you say??" Xu Mumu widened her eyes. Did she hear wrong? Was her mom pregnant?
Li Caixia was only forty this year, so it was possible for her to be pregnant.
But there didn’t seem to be anything about her mom getting pregnant in the book, could it be a butterfly effect from her presence?
"I’m pregnant, Mumu is going to be a big sister again. Are you happy?" Li Caixia said with a smile, feeling quite delighted that, despite her age, she was pregnant again.
"Really pregnant?" Xu Mumu said in surprise, hoping it wasn’t a mistake, rejoicing for nothing.
"Certainly, your dad even took me to the health clinic to check, it’s over two months already." Li Caixia said excitedly. In the countryside, having more children was considered a blessing. Their family only had three children, so having another would naturally be better.
"Is that so? That’s good news then." Xu Mumu felt mixed emotions; her mom getting pregnant again meant a new sibling at home, which would bring a lot of pressure.
In a few years, family planning would become strict, making it difficult to have many children in the future.
While cooking dinner, it was Madam Chen who did the cooking, even adding more meat.
Because of Li Caixia’s pregnancy, most of the housework was taken over by Madam Chen. Li Caixia started resting at home, focusing on her pregnancy, and the others in the house were more than capable of managing the work. Xu Minghui brought back his salary every month, so not working for a while wasn’t a problem.
Everyone in the house was quite happy about Li Caixia’s pregnancy, and Xu Mumu also started to look forward to it a little.
With a pregnant woman at home, everyone took extra care of Li Caixia. When the Li Family heard about it, they even sent over a basket of eggs.
When Xu Qingxing found out her sister-in-law was pregnant, she also sent something over since she was busy and couldn’t come back to visit.
Xu Mumu noticed her mom was having a great time with her pregnancy, eating and sleeping well, and didn’t have any morning sickness symptoms.
Soon, Xu Mumu didn’t have time to focus on her mom anymore, as the final exams approached.
Ever since Zhao Qing’s confession was rejected by Xu Mumu, she found that the boy had become much quieter.
Although they still talked, it wasn’t the same as before.
Xue Yan had already helped Xu Mumu pack her books, which would be moved when the exams begin.
"Are you still reading novels?" Xu Mumu looked at Xue Yan with a headache, wondering what to say as Xue Yan was still engrossed in novels.
"It’s no use cramming at this point; I’m going to work in a few days anyway." Xue Yan said indifferently.
Xu Mumu didn’t want to say much more, so she just put her books at the back of the classroom, ready for the exams.
Soon, exam time arrived. The invigilators were not Xu Mumu’s teachers but the ones from the senior classes, people she didn’t know.
When she received the exam paper, Xu Mumu quickly went to work on it.
