Chapter 239 You're the Most Handsome 14
Since neither of them had classes, Xu Yanmo originally planned to take Ziyue out to play, but Ziyue was too lazy to move, so the two of them stayed at home and cuddled for two days.
These past two days, looking at his wife sleeping soundly in his arms, Xu Yanmo frowned slightly. Something wasn't right. Had his wife been sleeping too much these past few days?
So after dinner that evening, Xu Yanmo looked at Ziyue and asked worriedly, "Wife, are you feeling unwell? Are you sick? You've been sleeping for a long time these past two days."
Ziyue shook her head, popped a macadamia nut that Xu Yanmo had just peeled for her into her mouth, and calmly said, "I'm not feeling unwell, it's just that I'm sleepy because I'm pregnant."
"Yes, you're pregnant." Xu Yanmo nodded, placing the freshly peeled nuts on the plate. Then, he paused, "Pregnant?"
Xu Yanmo's mind went blank for a moment. He stared blankly at Ziyue. When he came to his senses, he quickly looked at Ziyue's stomach, wanting to touch it but not daring to. He looked completely at a loss, which Ziyue found extremely amusing.
"Hmm, it's been almost two months, I think. I've been eating a lot and feeling very sleepy lately. I took a pregnancy test, but maybe I forgot to tell you?"
Well, she couldn't very well say that she took her own pulse to figure it out, since the original owner of this body didn't have a medical background and didn't know any medical skills. So, she could only say that she took the pregnancy test herself.
Moreover, she deliberately didn't tell him. If Xu Yanmo knew she was pregnant, wouldn't he be even more careful around her?
She's in good health, there's absolutely no need to worry about her. Why make him anxious so early? It's better to find out later if possible.
Confirming that he hadn't misheard, Xu Yanmo's eyes sparkled as he gently placed his hand on her abdomen, not daring to apply any pressure.
After a long while, he gently pulled Ziyue into his arms, as if suffering from a skin hunger disorder, "Wife, am I going to be a father? We're going to have a child?..."
He kept muttering to himself, incoherently, and probably didn't even know what he was saying. He was as clingy as a little kitten.
Anyway, Ziyue remained calm, but she didn't forget to have Xiao Jiu'er record Xu Yanmo's dazed expression.
The next day, Xu Yanmo drove Ziyue to the hospital. He was worried about his wife's health and felt he needed to have her checked out before he could feel at ease.
The result is naturally——
"Congratulations! The pregnant woman is seven weeks pregnant, and both she and the baby are in good health."
Xu Yanmo asked a lot more questions about precautions, almost annoying the doctor.
Xu Yanmo carefully held Ziyue's hand, protecting her by his side, as if afraid that someone would touch her.
From that day on, Xu Yanmo treated Ziyue like royalty. He was already very kind to her, and now he carried her everywhere he went, not wanting her to walk even a few steps.
Later, after hearing from the doctor that appropriate exercise can help with childbirth, he finally restrained his behavior.
Next, Xu Yanmo began researching nutritious meals, determined to take good care of his wife and children.
I read a lot of books on pregnancy and infant care, and learned about how women give birth, what processes they go through, the dangers of childbirth, and the damage it can cause to a woman's body. The more I read, the more scared I became.
That night, Ziyue woke up in the middle of the night wanting a drink of water. She nudged the man next to her, and Xu Yanmo understood, putting the straw from the thermos cup he had prepared in advance into her mouth.
Ziyue drank a few sips of water, feeling satisfied, and was about to go back to sleep when she suddenly realized something was wrong. When she opened her eyes, she saw the man next to her with his big, red eyes, looking like a pitiful big rabbit.
"what happened?"
Xu Yanmo's voice was choked with emotion, "Wife, let's not have the baby, okay? Childbirth is so painful and dangerous, I'm scared."
Ziyue was both amused and exasperated. She quickly patted the spot next to her, and Xu Yanmo lay down beside her, being careful not to touch Ziyue's stomach. Ziyue then pulled him into her arms, saying, "Don't worry, both the baby and I are in good health. We'll definitely have a smooth delivery."
Ziyue felt that her husband seemed to have developed a fear of childbirth, and he didn't recover until the day she gave birth.
Ziyue bought a natural childbirth pill in the space store and gave birth to a boy smoothly. Xu Yanmo held his wife's hand tightly, but the child did not receive a single glance from him until Ziyue woke up.
Xu Yanmo's eyes lit up. "Wife, you're awake. Are you thirsty? Hungry? Are you feeling unwell? Are you still in pain?"
Faced with a barrage of questions, Ziyue didn't know which one to answer first. Holding his hand, she quickly reassured him, "Don't worry, I'm fine. What about the baby?"
Xu Yanmo's eyes darted around, "The child, the child..." He didn't know either.
Just then, Xu's mother came in carrying the child. "The child is here." Xu's father, grandmother, and grandfather followed behind her.
"Haha, Ziyue, let me tell you, that rascal Xu Yanmo has been so worried about you that he hasn't even had a chance to see the child yet." Grandma Xu teased her grandson, eliciting good-natured laughter from everyone.
Ziyue looked at the baby in Xu's mother's arms. Hmm, it was chubby and fair-skinned, unlike other newborns whose skin was red. As expected of her son, it was good-looking and would definitely grow up to be a handsome man.
Next, Grandma Xu and her mother praised the child's appearance, saying that he had inherited all the best features of his parents and that he would definitely be even more handsome than his father when he grew up.
Xu Yanmo was unhappy. How could his wife praise another man's looks? Not even a little kid.
Looking at the little baby sleeping soundly in his swaddling clothes, he couldn't see how good-looking he was. Then he looked at Ziyue with a pitiful expression and asked, "Wife, who's the prettiest, me or him?"
Ziyue, with her survival instincts at their peak, didn't hesitate for a moment and blurted out, "You're the prettiest."
Xu Yanmo was instantly satisfied and glanced smugly at the little kid. In his wife's heart, he was definitely the most handsome, even their son couldn't compare to him!
This drew laughter from Xu's mother and the others, who called her shameless for being jealous of even a newborn baby.
Xu Yanmo researched postpartum meals for a long time. During the postpartum period, he prepared nutritious and varied meals for Ziyue every day. He also took care of everything, including making formula, changing diapers, and washing the baby. He was definitely a qualified dad.
When their son Xu Yun'an grew up, he indeed grew tall and handsome, always standing out in the crowd.
Xu Yanmo would always ask Ziyue the same question: "Wife, who is the most handsome, me or Xu Yun'an?"
"You're the most handsome."
Every time this happened, Xu Yanmo would look at his son with a smug look, which made Xu Yun'an feel very helpless.
His dad always refused to admit that he was more handsome than his father.
Oh, what a jealous person!
He's used to it, he's used to it, he's already gotten used to it...
This scene played out countless times throughout the rest of their lives.
"Honey, who's the most handsome, me or Xu Yun'an?"
"You're the most handsome."
……
Even in his later years, Xu Yanmo remained bedridden.
"Honey, who's the most handsome, me or Xu Yun'an?"
Ziyue looked at the still elegant old man with his white hair and said gently, "You're the most handsome."
Xu Yanmo closed his eyes with a smile in them.
Ziyue touched his cheek, kissed his forehead, then lay down beside him and closed her eyes.
