Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 399 Hahahaha

Chen Xiao said, "That's not right either. He has only older sisters above him. I guess he wasn't very careful with his mother's pregnancies, so he got excited when he found out it was a son."

Xiao Wei said, "Pretty much. The emotional gap is too big. In my family, with three boys, I guess my dad didn't feel much at that time. If Xiao Bing were a girl, he might have been excited for a few days."

Xiao Hong asked, "So, do you want a girl or a boy?"

Xiao Wei said, "What's the difference between a girl and a boy for us? Having one child is good enough. If possible in the future, we'll have two. One is too lonely."

Chen Hui sighed, turned his head to look at Chen Xiao's belly, and said, "I wanted two too, but it's hopeless in this lifetime."

Xia Maosheng said, "It's okay, I'm with you. This is the only one I have." One of them is a civil servant and the other's father is in a very high position, so having both of them is extremely difficult.

Xiao Wei said, "You guys are so stubborn. If it doesn't work out, we can go abroad to give birth, and then come back afterward. It's just a little money, and we don't have to go far. We can just stay in Hong Kong for a year."

Chen Hui said to Xia Maosheng, "It's true, this guy is cunning. No wonder he's called a devil, he really is a devil."

Just then, Xiao Wei's pager went off. He wiped his hands, took it off, glanced at it, and said, "It's my brother. You guys keep talking, I'm going to make a call back."

After leaving the restaurant, walk to the living room and open the door to enter the house.

The call connected, and Zhang Jun asked, "Xiao Wei?"

Xiao Wei said, "Yes, it's me. Why are you paged so late?"

Zhang Jun said, "No one's answering the phone. What are you doing?"

Xiaowei said, "Mom, Dad, and Xiaobing are all asleep. A friend of mine got married today, and it's been a long day. I just ate something and I'm washing the dishes now. What's up?"

Zhang Jun said, "Didn't you say you wanted to buy an apartment? Are you really going to?"

Xiao Wei said, "If they really want to buy, they want to buy too. Are there any three adjacent buildings being sold together?"

Zhang Jun: "...You guys really made a killing. This money is practically worthless in your hands."

Xiao Wei said, "Chen Hui's dad works in the provincial capital, and Xia Maosheng's aunt works in the city. They both say that welfare housing has been discontinued, and houses will become more and more valuable in the future. The three of us put our heads together, and if we buy a building and leave it there without spending any money, we won't lose money. It's not expensive either, so let's all buy one, okay?"

Zhang Jun said, "You guys think several hundred thousand is a bargain. Compared to that, it feels like all these years of hard work have gone to waste. The three buildings next to each other aren't easy to find. Let me take a look. I'll talk to my boss tomorrow and see if I can negotiate the price down a bit. I just want to confirm with you whether you really want to buy. My boss will be back tomorrow during the day. Okay, that's all for now. You should get some sleep too."

Xiao Wei agreed and hung up the phone.

As they came out of the living room, Xia Maosheng, Chen Hui, and their group of five also came out of the dining room and headed this way. Xiao Wei stood at the living room doorway waiting and asked, "Sit for a while or go back to your room to sleep?"

Chen Hui said, "I just got up and ate, where am I going to sleep? Sit down for a bit, have some water and a smoke."

Chen Xiao said, "You guys stand outside and smoke, the three of us will go inside and talk." The three girls held hands and went inside, leaving the three men outside looking up at the sky. Xiao Wei took out cigarettes and handed one to each of them. The three of them lit them, leaned against the wall, and looked up at the sky while talking.

Xiao Wei said, "My brother asked if we should buy the building or not. I said we should buy all of them, three buildings. His boss is going back to work tomorrow, and he'll ask him about it tomorrow."

Chen Hui said, "If we want to buy this, do we have to go there again?"

Xia Maosheng exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Of course we have to go. You need to be there in person to complete the paperwork, right? You need your ID and stuff, just like buying a house."

Chen Hui turned his head and glanced inside through the window, then whispered, "It would be best to go. I'd like to have a few days of peace and quiet. This day has been really... sigh."

Xia Maosheng said, "I don't feel that way yet. Geng Hui isn't clingy, and she's more easygoing than you."

Chen Hui said, "It's not a big deal for a grown man like me to take care of his wife. It's not about being clingy or not. You've only just gotten to this point. You'll see when she's seven or eight months along. You'll be living in constant fear. You won't be as relaxed then."

He glanced into the house, threw down his cigarette, and cursed, "That spendthrift woman." He turned and went inside, opening the door and saying, "Chen Xiao, what are you doing? Showing off again? What did the doctor say?"

Chen Xiao had just turned on the TV and set up the game console when he pouted and said, "I'll only play for a little while, what's the big deal?"

Chen Hui said, "Grandma, come here, can you play with me? Didn't the doctor say not to touch this? Eyes, eyes!"

Chen Xiao pouted as she watched Chen Hui take the game controller away, looking like she was about to cry. Xiao Hong turned to look at her strangely and said, "Didn't you used to dislike playing this kind of thing?"

Chen Xiao said, "The more you try to stop me from touching you, the more I want to touch you; it's so irritating."

Geng Hui said, "I've never heard of being forbidden from watching TV. This is no different from watching TV, is it?"

Chen Hui said, "Watching TV is fine, but this game is not. It's easy to get excited while playing, and the game screen is very stimulating to the eyes. The doctor said that we have to be more careful as we progress, and we can't have big emotional fluctuations."

Xiao Wei and Xia Maosheng followed behind. Xiao Wei said, "Playing this is really easy to get excited about. Xiao Xiao, you should listen to me."

Xiao Hong suddenly chuckled, then stopped laughing, and then burst into laughter, curling up into a ball of uncontrollable joy. She slid down the stool towards the floor. Xiao Wei asked, "What's wrong?" He went over and picked Xiao Hong up. She was so limp from laughing that she was practically a noodle. Xiao Wei had to lift her up and hold her tightly in his arms, asking, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Everyone stared in surprise at Xiao Hong's uncontrollable laughter. Then Xia Maosheng, caught up in the fun, chuckled twice, then stopped, realizing it was inappropriate. His antics amused Chen Xiao, and Chen Hui quickly helped her up, saying, "Don't laugh, don't laugh, please don't laugh! Let's go, let's go back inside. This room is too dangerous." He helped Chen Xiao walk out. Pregnant women in their late twenties really shouldn't laugh too much; it's very dangerous.

Geng Hui was completely bewildered, looking around and asking, "What's going on?"

Xiao Hong gradually calmed down, hugging Xiao Wei's neck and panting. Pointing to the door, she said, "Chen, Chen Hui'er, Grandma, hahahaha, Grandma, you, haha, you're playing me, hahahaha, you're playing me, hahahahaha."

Xiao Wei, holding Xiao Hong, said, "Just that one sentence made you this happy? My goodness. Okay, let's go back inside." He picked up Xiao Hong and left the living room. Xia Maosheng looked at the TV, then at Geng Hui, and asked, "What are we doing?"

Geng Hui said, "I don't know, I'm not sleepy either."

Xia Maosheng said, "How about we play this?"

Geng Hui looked at the game console, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay, let's play Tank Battle."

Then electronic music and explosions started playing in the living room.
