After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies

Chapter 133

Stepping out of the space, the sky was still not dark, and the twilight dyed the sky a deep red.

As the due date approached, Pei Meng would always go for a walk in the evening when she was at home, with Pei Jing accompanying her when he wasn't busy.

After all, it was because of negligence that Zhi Xia and An ZhiAng had given birth prematurely, so the bigger Pei Meng's belly grew, the more worried Pei Jing became about leaving her alone at home. It made her have very little free time.

Of course, only someone who is loved would be cared for in this way, so it could be considered a sweet burden.

As she opened the door to go out, she coincidentally ran into Wu Lei coming back.

He was still holding a lunchbox in his hand, smiling and greeting the elderly ladies who were enjoying the coolness by the door.

When he reached the doorway, Zhi Xia smiled and spoke, "Brother Wu, are you off work now?"

"Yes, off work. Little sister, you probably haven't eaten yet. It's not convenient for you to cook alone. The restaurant we went to for lunch is not far to the left. If it's not convenient for you, I can go buy something for you," he didn't dare suggest that Zhi Xia should make do at home. If the tigress at home got angry, it would make everyone look bad. It was a pity that he had been foolish in his mind at the beginning, just wanting to marry a beautiful woman, but ended up being a mess in handling social interactions. It made him even afraid to bring friends home.

"Thank you, Brother Wu, for your kindness, but I actually wanted to go out for a stroll. I won't trouble you," Zhi Xia politely declined.

"Alright then, I've already greeted Brother Pei. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call out loudly. I can hear you from here."

After exchanging pleasantries, Wu Lei went back home, and Zhi Xia closed the door and went out.

However, as soon as Wu Lei entered the house, he saw his wife Zhang Lin in the courtyard, her face full of sarcasm as she spoke, "Calling her 'little sister' and 'Brother Wu' again, so intimate. And shamelessly rushing to be someone's lackey. Why don't you care about our own home like that?"

"Zhang Lin, I'm already exhausted from work outside. Can't you stop acting like this as soon as I come home?" Wu Lei felt truly weary. "She's a pregnant woman about to give birth. What do you think I can afford to think about her? You've seen her husband, tall and handsome, with two stars and two bars on his military uniform. He doesn't even look at me. I really don't understand what you're fussing about."

As for him neglecting their home, it made even less sense.

Leaving aside the fact that he was the only one working in the family, providing for all their needs, Zhang Lin had been married for so many years and still couldn't even cook a meal. He cooked in the morning, brought back food for lunch and dinner in the afternoon. That was already enough for her.

Sometimes, it wasn't that love had diminished, but rather that all the pressure had been piled on him alone for a long time, making it too exhausting, and he just found it uninteresting.

Zhi Xia had already eaten in the space, so she didn't need to go to the restaurant for a meal.

Speaking of the location of Wu Lei's home, it was actually quite good. It should be considered the best central location.

Going straight ahead to the left was a state-owned restaurant, and further ahead was the city hospital. Zhi Xia chose to go right when she went out, and it didn't take long for her to reach the supply and marketing cooperative. However, at this time, the cooperative had already closed its doors.

Pedestrians hurried along the road, some carrying lunch boxes, mostly workers who had just finished work.

Zhi Xia walked carefully by the side of the road, afraid of accidentally bumping into someone.

Having made a round, she started to walk back since there was nothing particularly interesting.

Halfway through, she met Pei Jing coming towards her. She happily approached him, "You're here?"

Pei Jing nodded and came over to support her. "Why are you out alone?"

"I just had a little something to eat and came out to aid digestion," Zhi Xia replied.

The two of them walked home together. Pei Jing had already tidied up the room, and the bedding was spread on the bed.

He pulled Zhi Xia into the room and kissed her forehead with guilt. "I'm sorry, for these few days, I can only leave Mengmeng here to take care of you. But don't worry, I've made arrangements. In ten days, I've applied for half a month of leave. If anything happens on your end within these ten days, let Mengmeng go next door to ask Director Wu for help. He will call the troops to inform me, and I'll come over as soon as possible."

"Yeah, I believe you, and I believe our baby will be fine," Zhi Xia said. "It's already late today, so you probably won't go back, right?"

"I'll go back tomorrow morning," Pei Jing hesitated and added, "I've also informed Jincheng. Someone should be coming in the next few days."

He considered the third person; not mentioning it was unrealistic.

Zhi Xia could throw a tantrum, but as a mature man, he had to think things through. f𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝐛n𝐨v𝚎𝗹.com

They couldn't stay away from Jincheng forever, nor could they cut off contact with that place.

Zhi Xia understood this principle, so she didn't say anything.

When Zhi Xia woke up in the morning, she didn't know how long Pei Jing had been gone.

When they came, they brought food and could cook for themselves.

In the morning, Pei Meng went out for a walk and happened to see someone selling breakfast, so she bought soy milk and fried dough sticks.

Zhi Xia was also looking forward to it, hoping she could hold on until Pei Jing's vacation to give birth. The long period of time spent together had made her dependent on him.

Pei Jing was a man, but he wasn't a chauvinistic person. His thoughts were particularly delicate, making people feel very comfortable when they were with him.

It always felt like when he was around, there was no need to worry about anything. Whatever was needed or uncomfortable, he could promptly notice, making people feel particularly at ease.

During these few days, he didn't completely abandon them here; instead, he hurriedly came in the afternoon but left before dawn.

Seeing him work so hard, Zhi Xia felt warm and started to worry about him.

She told him not to worry about this side and not to take time off to come over. She would notify him when labor began, and he could come then.

After all, it was her first time giving birth, and they said it wouldn't be too fast during labor. It was common for some people to take several days from labor to delivery.

Pei Jing just listened to these words.

The child in Zhi Xia's belly was his, but he couldn't bear the pain of pregnancy. He couldn't even provide the most basic company now. If he didn't take the time to come over, would he still be considered a man?

Time passed, and four or five days went by.

To ensure a smooth delivery, Zhi Xia and Pei Meng would go out for a walk every day after eating.

One afternoon, Zhi Xia, who was pregnant and feeling sleepy, intended to take a nap. However, she heard a knocking sound at the door.

Pei Meng rushed to open the door and excitedly shouted inside, "Sister-in-law, come out quickly! Aunt An and Brother Zhi Xian are here!"

An Zhi Xian playfully tapped Pei Meng on the head and said, "You are my sister-in-law, so why are you calling her sister-in-law and me brother?!"

"What's the big deal? Grandpa already said it's up to each individual, and I'm just taking advantage of you. Hehe," Pei Meng said, intentionally moving away to avoid being hit again.

Zhou Nan glared at An Zhi Xian and said, "Meng Meng is already married and is an adult now. You can't be so casual in the future."

They got married before the New Year, and if nothing unexpected happened, there might already be a baby in her belly. The younger generation shouldn't be too careless in their playful actions, as it could lead to mistakes.
