Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 1153 Wu Dong is going to be a father
After Wang An finished speaking, Qiao Xiaohu hurriedly said:

"Brother, everything I have now is given to me by you, I will not..."

Before Qiao Xiaohu could finish speaking, Wang An stood up, patted Qiao Xiaohu on the shoulder, and interrupted him with a smile:

"Alright, alright, don't get worked up. I believe you, hehehe. We'll talk about the future later, but Xiaohu, remember this: you treat me like an older brother, and I'll treat you like a younger brother. That's all. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's drink."

In fact, with Wang An's discerning eye, he can usually see a person clearly. Qiao Xiaohu now genuinely feels grateful to Wang An, or rather, he would do anything for him.

However, as Wang An said, people are all subject to change. As for whether Qiao Xiaohu will change in the future, and what he will become, no one can predict that.

So although what Wang An said was a bit ruthless, it was also very realistic. If Qiao Xiaohu felt that he had grown too big for his own britches in the future, then Wang An could deal with him without any regard for sentimentality.

And so, the two chatted and drank, eating until 1 p.m. before finally finishing.

Both of them drank quite a bit during the meal, but their heads remained clear.

Wang An didn't say anything because he was immune to alcohol, while Qiao Xiaohu somehow developed a high alcohol tolerance and drank about six or seven ounces of baijiu without any problems.

When they parted, Qiao Xiaohu said that if Li Xinhao came, where would he find Wang An? Wang An thought about it and finally decided to tell Qiao Xiaohu his home address.

The main reason is that it's too easy for anyone to find out Wang An's address. This kind of thing can't be kept secret anyway, so it's better to just tell them to save trouble. The most important thing is that Qiao Xiaohu is no longer an outsider.

After leaving the restaurant, Qiao Xiaohu rode his bicycle to drop Wang An off not far from Wu Dong's house, then rode home, while Wang An went straight to Wu Dong's house.

When Wang An arrived at Wu Dong's house, Wu Dong had not yet returned; only Wu Dong's wife was home. Upon seeing Wang An, Wu Dong's wife greeted him:
"Oh, it's Xiao An! Come in and sit down."

As Wang An walked towards the house, he said:
"Hey, sister-in-law, isn't my brother Wu off work yet?"

Wu Dong's wife replied:

"It should be soon. He said this morning that he had something to do in the afternoon and wouldn't be coming to work. He probably wanted to finish his afternoon work in the morning."

These words surprised Wang An. He never expected that Wu Dong's statement the day before yesterday that nothing would happen this afternoon meant nothing at all.

After entering the house, Wang An took the initiative to say:
"Sister-in-law, you go ahead with your business. I'll sit and wait for my brother Wu for a while."

To everyone's surprise, Wu Dong's wife joked:

"I only finished yesterday, and the new manuscript hasn't arrived yet. I estimate I can stay for two or three days, hahaha."

Wang An smiled and replied in response:
"It would be great if we could stay for a few days, working all day would be really tough."

Wang An knew that Wu Dong's wife's work was sometimes not easy. Wu Dong told him that if there were documents that were urgently needed, she would sometimes spend the whole day translating them and would get very little sleep.

After Wang An finished speaking, Wu Dong's wife changed the subject and asked with a curious expression:
"I heard from your brother Wu that your wife is about to give birth, is that right?"

Wang An nodded and smiled:

"Yes, it'll be soon, around the end of this month or the beginning of next month."

Wu Dong's wife suddenly asked with a face full of curiosity:
"You didn't buy the car just because of your wife, did you?"

Wang An was taken aback when he heard this. The main reason was that Wu Dong's wife was too intelligent. She could even guess such a thing. You should know that Wang An had never told anyone about this except his family.

Anyway, it's a matter of how you treat your own wife, and Wang An felt there was no need to tell others.

After a moment of surprise, Wang An answered truthfully:
"Yeah, my wife is about to give birth, so buying a car will make things more convenient."

Wu Dong's wife said with a smile:

"Okay, you really care about your wife. If you ask me, it's better for your wife to go to the hospital when she gives birth. At least it's safe. I've heard that childbirth is like walking through the gates of hell for women."

Wang An nodded and said, "Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. I'll send her to the hospital in a few days for a check-up, and then she can stay in the hospital for the rest of the pregnancy."

Upon hearing Wang An's words, Wu Dong's wife smiled broadly and said:

"Very good. Really very good."

Wang An noticed Wu Dong's wife frequently touching her lower abdomen and subconsciously asked:
"Sister-in-law, you're not pregnant too, are you?"

Wu Dong's wife smiled happily and said:
"Yes, I'm going to be a mom too, hehehehe."

It's clear that Wu Dong's wife is also full of anticipation for the little life in her belly.

Wang An immediately said:

"Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations to my brother Wu and sister-in-law for getting their wish!"

At first, Wang An was puzzled as to why Wu Dong's wife would ask him about Mu Xueqing's childbirth for no reason. After all, Wang An and Wu Dong's wife hadn't spoken much. It turned out that it was because she herself was pregnant.

That's how people are; they all care about things that concern them.

It has to be said that Wu Dong has been married for several years, but they still don't have children, which is something that really worries Wu Dong and his wife.

The main difference is that Wu Dong's wife is not like He Liang's and Ma Guoqiang's wives, who are not around. She has always been with Wu Dong.

Upon hearing Wang An's blessing, Wu Dong's wife immediately beamed with joy.

The two chatted about various things for a while, and then Wu Dong's car started humming in the yard.

Wang An hurriedly went out to greet him, and just as Wang An reached the door of the outer room, Wu Dong was walking into the room.

Upon seeing Wu Dong, Wang An greeted him with a broad smile and said:

"Congratulations, Brother Wu! Hahahaha!"

Wu Dong, lost in thought, was startled by Wang An's sudden outburst and said, completely bewildered:

"You're the one who bought the car, shouldn't I be congratulating you? Why are you congratulating me?"

Wang An said with a smile:

"No, I meant congratulations on becoming a dad soon, hahaha!"

After realizing what was happening, Wu Dong immediately burst into laughter:
"Hahaha. I have to congratulate myself on this, hahaha, I'm going to be a dad soon, hahaha."

After laughing, Wu Dong's wife asked Wu Dong:

"Have you eaten lunch? If not, I'll cook you some noodles."

Wu Dong waved his hand and said:
"I've already eaten at work."

Turning his head, Wu Dong asked Wang An again:
"Did you have a full lunch, Xiao An? How about your sister-in-law cook you a bowl of noodles?"

Wang An shook his head and said:
"No need, no need, I ate a proper lunch."

After rambling on for a few more minutes, Wu Dong said to Wang An:
"Let's go pick up your car first. If we're in time, I also need to go to work."

As they talked, the two walked outside together.

　Thank you "Brother Hei Niu" for the donation, thank you so much!
