Grandpa He coaxed in a low voice: Baby, be good!

Chapter 263: Wheat Sleepiness

The afternoon sun was warm, making the office cozy. At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiaomai began to feel sleepy again. She dozed off while working. Zhang Pengfei, who was sitting at the opposite desk, laughed at her and said, "Hey! What are you doing? Are you being lazy?"

Xiaomai was startled when she heard the voice, and quickly shook her head twice and said, "Nothing, I'm working."

"Come on, I saw you dozing off. What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"Maybe! I always feel like I'm not getting enough sleep lately. I think it may be a seasonal issue!" said Xiaomai.

"Stop it, why don't others do the same? You should look for the reason in yourself!" Zhang Pengfei said with a blank look at Xiaomai.

"What reason could I have? Go to bed early tonight and see if you'll still be sleepy during the day tomorrow."

The two chatted for a while, and Xiaomai became much more energetic and continued to work. Time always passes quickly when you are busy, and in the blink of an eye it was time to get off work. He Lingting parked the car directly in the underground garage and waited for Xiaomai.

"Uncle, you're here so early today!" Usually Xiaomai would wait until everyone else had left before the uncle would arrive. But today, before it was even time to get off work, the uncle called to say he had arrived. He arrived so early.

"I came here directly after finishing my work this afternoon."

"I told you, being a president is great! You can skip work as much as you want and no one dares to stop you!" Xiaomai said enviously.

"You can if you want." He Lingting said as he rubbed the little girl's hair.

"How can that be possible? People will gossip about us." Xiaomai looked at the uncle and said.

"Who dares? Open it."

After hearing what the uncle said, Xiaomai stroked his forehead and decided that he couldn't talk about this topic with him anymore. The uncle was definitely a man who doted on his wife.

Seeing that Xiaomai was silent, He Lingting drove out directly. He asked while driving: "What would you like to eat tonight?"

"I'm not picky about food, let's go home and eat! I want to go to bed early at night. I feel like I haven't gotten enough sleep recently and I always feel sleepy during the day." Xiaomai said.

When He Lingting heard this, he quickly reached out a hand to touch Xiaomai's forehead. Fortunately, it was not hot. Then he asked, "Besides being sleepy, are you feeling uncomfortable in any other way?"

"No! I'm fine. Maybe it's because spring makes people sleepy. I just need to go to bed early at night."

"Okay! Then go to bed early tonight."

"Okay," the two said as they drove home.

There were always red lights along the way, and the cars stopped and started, and Xiaomai was actually shaken to sleep.

Although it was already March and the temperature was warmer, He Lingting was still worried that the little girl would catch a cold. He took off his coat and covered Xiaomai with it, kissed Xiaomai on the forehead, smiled and shook his head.

"This girl, sleep comes too quickly, she falls asleep as soon as she says she will."

He Lingting deliberately slowed down the car and tried to keep it running smoothly. After arriving home, he looked at the little girl who was sleeping soundly and was reluctant to wake her up. He walked to the car door, picked up the little girl and went into the house.

Aunt Li saw it from a distance and asked anxiously, "What happened to the young lady?"

"It's okay. I fell asleep."

Just as He Lingting finished speaking, the little person in his arms slowly woke up. Xiaomai rubbed his eyes and asked in surprise: "Ah! Why did I fall asleep? We are home now, uncle, why didn't you wake me up?"

"You seemed to be sleeping so soundly that I didn't want to wake you up. Aren't you sleepy now?" He Lingting saw that Xiaomai had woken up and put her down steadily on the ground.

"I feel much better after a good sleep. I'm not sleepy anymore."

"That's good."

Then the two went back to the room, changed clothes, washed their hands, and went downstairs to eat.

Tonight, Aunt Li cooked a combination of meat and vegetables as usual. Tonight she stewed chicken soup.

Xiaomai sat at the table and started eating. Aunt Li brought the chicken soup and placed it in front of Xiaomai. As soon as Xiaomai smelled the greasy smell, he immediately covered his mouth and ran to the bathroom. He lay on the toilet and retched, feeling nauseous but unable to vomit anything.

He Lingting also hurriedly followed in. He frowned and patted the little girl's back, and asked distressedly: "What's wrong? Are you feeling sick in your stomach?"

Xiaomai dry-heaved for a while and felt that the symptoms were relieved. She rinsed her mouth and said, "I just smelled the chicken soup and felt nauseous but couldn't vomit. My stomach didn't feel uncomfortable! I feel better now."

"Let's ask Chen to come and take a look!" He Lingting said worriedly.

"I'm fine now. It's already night time. Don't bother me anymore. I'll go to the hospital on the weekend!"

"Then if you feel uncomfortable again you must let him come."

"Okay, it's up to you."

"So you can't eat now?" He Lingting asked.

"Eat, why not eat, I feel very hungry now."

"Let's go! Let's eat." He Lingting pulled Xiaomai and walked towards the restaurant.

"Wait, let Aunt Li take the chicken soup away! I don't like the taste."

So He Lingting asked Aunt Li to take the chicken soup away first before letting Xiaomai come to eat. He Lingting was still a little worried and kept an eye on Xiaomai.

However, the little girl not only did not feel any discomfort, but had a very good appetite and ate much more than usual.

After Xiaomai had eaten and drunk her fill, she stood up and touched her stomach. She looked at He Lingting and said, "Look, I said it's okay! I feel like I can eat a little more, but I don't dare to eat anymore. If I get fat, it will be hard to lose weight!"

"No, you're too thin. You should gain some weight. Just eat if you want!"

"No, I want to go to bed early. Eating too much will make me uncomfortable." Xiaomai thought for a while and said, "Uncle, why do I feel like I am becoming more and more like a pig? I can eat and sleep, and I want to sleep when I am full. I can't control myself."

He Liting laughed out loud when he heard Xiaomai's words, "Silly girl, how can you say that about yourself? Even if you turn into a pig, your husband will like you."

Aunt Li was listening to the conversation between the young couple in the kitchen and felt that something was wrong with the young lady. She was an experienced person and wondered if the young lady had the symptoms! This couldn't be vague.

So she asked Xiaomai, "Little Madam, how long have you been sleepy?"

"It hasn't been long, just the past week. Do you think it's because spring has arrived? I just feel sleepy."

"How long has it been since you had your period?" Aunt Li asked again.

"Which one?" Xiaomai looked confused, not knowing what Aunt Li was asking. He Lingting, a grown man, was also a little confused.

"Silly child, that aunt!"

When Xiaomai heard that it was a private question, even though He Lingting was her husband, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She blushed and said, "Ah, this! It should be almost a month old. I'm not very punctual, so I don't keep track of the date."

"Young Master, please take some time to take your wife to the hospital for a check-up! She might be pregnant." Aunt Li said to He Lingting.

He Lingting and Xiaomai were both petrified when they heard this. He Lingting was so excited that he didn't know what to say, while Xiaomai felt it was incredible, wondering how she could be pregnant.

"Can I? I don't feel anything in my stomach."

"I think you are greedy, sleepy, and hate greasy food. These are early pregnancy symptoms. Your belly will get bigger once you feel it."

"Ah! From what you said, it's really possible!"

"So you should go to the hospital for a check-up as soon as possible. Paying attention to what you need to do will help the fetus grow."

As soon as Aunt Li finished speaking, He Lingting picked up Xiaomai and went upstairs.

"Uncle, what are you doing? I can walk by myself." Xiaomai was startled when she was suddenly picked up.

"I'm worried that you'll be tired. Aren't you sleepy? I'll carry you back to your room to sleep, and we'll go to the hospital early tomorrow morning."

"You won't be tired from walking these two steps. Besides, I can't sleep now!"

"Then let's go to the hospital now."

"Well, what are we doing so late at night? Let's do it tomorrow!"

"Okay! Then you should go to bed early."

Xiaomai slept soundly that night. She was really sleepy, but He Lingting didn't sleep for half the night. He stared at the little girl's face for a while, and then at her belly. His baby was inside, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.
