She hurriedly changed the subject.

“Second Sister, I feel so bad for having you make medicine for me. I really feel guilty…”

“What are you talking about? We’re sisters, I’ve been living and eating at your home, causing you so much trouble. If anyone should feel guilty, it’s me, your Second Sister.”

Liu Zhi’er’s voice was hoarse.

“Second Sister, if you say such things, that’s just too much. From now on, I don’t want to hear you say this. If you really feel guilty, then just take care of yourself, recover well, put on some weight, and look after your child. That will be enough.”

As Liu Sisi spoke, sleepiness welled up within her.

Liu Zhi’er nodded heavily, remembering that Liu Sisi couldn’t see her movements, and hurriedly said.

“Mm! I understand…”

When Di Yelei and Zhang Peng came back, Liu Sisi was already drowsy.

“Guihua originally wanted to come too, but I thought it was too late and too cold, so I let her stay at home.”

Zhang Peng checked her pulse and then got up directly: “My sister-in-law is fine, just weak. Her pregnancy is not stable, and her emotions have been fluctuating greatly recently, causing her to worry and get upset. So her body can’t take it. However, as long as she takes a few doses of this medicinal soup and slowly recuperates, her health will naturally improve.”

What was said made Liu Sisi shyly lower her head.

“Yes! Lately, Sisi has indeed been tired. She has been busy so many times, and her emotions have indeed been fluctuating a lot.”

Di Yelei, next to her, kept nodding, without realizing the meaning of the words: “She’ll definitely consume the medicinal soup, as for the pregnancy…pregn…what are you saying?!”

He suddenly stopped speaking, like a lion with its hair standing on end, and jumped up, grabbing Zhang Peng by the collar.

With an unbelieving look, his voice trembled as he carefully asked, “What… what did you just say? You… say it again?”

As if fearing to disturb something, his voice trembled.

“Let go, let go! What’s with pulling and tugging?”

Zhang Peng was particularly calm, lightly patting the collar that was being grabbed.

“My apologies, I was too rude.”

Di Yelei quickly let go of him, carefully straightening out his collar, and fetching a stool to help Zhang Peng sit down. He smiled with an eager face, “Brother Zhang, what did you just say?”

His fearful and timid expression instantly pleased everyone in the room, making them all laugh.

The laughter attracted Elderly Mr. Di and the children from the other room, who had already gone to sleep. They heard the noise and the sound of footsteps heading towards the kitchen.

After laughing enough, Zhang Peng finally said loudly: “I said! My sister-in-law is already pregnant. The months are still too small, so she needs proper care and nourishment.”

This time, Di Yelei heard it clearly. He stood still for a long time, like it was his first time being a father, and he mumbled to himself: “Sisi is pregnant, Sisi is pregnant, I’m going to be a father! I’m going to be a father, hehe… I’m going to be a father! I’m going to be a father!”

He became more and more excited as he spoke, his joy increasing. Suddenly, with a forceful pat on Zhang Peng’s shoulder, Zhang Peng staggered and almost fell down.

However, Di Yelei was still oblivious, and he laughed as he rushed forward, lifting Liu Sisi up and spinning around quickly!

“Sisi! We are having a child! You are pregnant! I am so happy and thrilled! Hahaha…”

His triumphant laughter rang out, as if he couldn’t wait to share his joy with everyone in the world!

His utterly joyous laughter was overheard by the several people who rushed over when they heard the commotion.

Di Xuan clenched his fists tightly, sealing his lips without saying a word. Did what he worried about the most happen after all?

Little Ying beside him did not understand what her dad was rejoicing about, only curiously tilting her head and trying to figure out what was going on.

On the other hand, Elderly Mr. Di, after making sense of the situation, gently patted Di Xuan’s shoulder and silently turned back to his room, closing the door behind him.

The world spun around her, and Liu Sisi’s head felt dizzy. She could only try to cling to the man whirling her around.

“Ah! Ye Lei, put me down quickly! Let me… let me go! I need to vomit… I am going to vomit!”

She couldn’t bear it anymore and felt like vomiting just as she said it.

“Hey, hey, hey! Don’t get too excited! Quickly put your sister-in-law down; she can’t handle all this fuss!” Zhang Peng saw that things weren’t going well and quickly tried to stop him.

It wasn’t until she was finally set down by the man in front of her that things began to calm down.

Almost immediately, Liu Sisi rushed to a corner and started to throw up violently.

Unfortunately, having not eaten anything all afternoon, and having vomited just before, she could only dry heave, unable to bring anything up.

Zhang Peng couldn’t help but scold angrily, “Look at you! You’re already a father of two children, yet you still act so impulsive? Your sister-in-law is pregnant now; she absolutely cannot have your temperament; it would be disastrous if it affected the fetus! You, oh you…”

He shook his head with disappointment.

Only at this moment did Di Yelei realize his mistake. He hurriedly went to pat Liu Sisi’s back gently and then took the clear water handed to him by Liu Zhi’er to rinse her mouth before carefully helping her back to the head of the bed.

He kept apologizing, “Sisi, it wasn’t your husband’s intention to upset you. I was just too happy! I hope I didn’t hurt you. If you are very upset, you can hit me or scold me. That way, you will feel better.”

Liu Sisi’s limbs were already weak, and she could barely keep her eyes open as her head hit the pillow.

“I’m fine now; I’m just so tired and want to sleep…” As she spoke, she closed her eyes.

She was indeed exhausted.

“Alright, alright, close your eyes and sleep. When the soup medicine is done later, I’ll wake you up to drink it.”

Di Yelei diligently covered her with the quilt and then stood at the head of the bed, grinning foolishly.

Seeing him grin foolishly, Zhang Peng couldn’t help but shake his head. Clearly, the other party had no intention of continuing to entertain him. He finally decided to leave, resentful that he had come twice in the middle of the night but received no warm send-off from the man with his wife and children tucked in comfortably.

He couldn’t let this slide!

When he went to the county government tomorrow, he would have to make sure to give him a good jolt.

He heard that the signature dishes at Juxian Restaurant were especially good. It seemed like he would have a taste of fortune…

Seeing Zhang Peng leave the room, Liu Zhi’er hurriedly went up to send him off. Women are more attentive after all. She immediately got to the point, “Brother Zhang, my Little Sister’s fetus… there’s nothing wrong with it, right? Is there anything we should be paying attention to?”
