Depressed wife runs with the ball

Chapter 117 I also want a daughter

The people in the store saw her looking around and quickly came forward to ask, "Do you two need any help?"

"I want to ask, what age child is this child's clothing for?" Chu Yue asked, tugging at the clothes. "How old is the child?" The clerk looked at the two people. They didn't look like new parents at all. However, the boy was quite handsome and the girl was also very beautiful.

"Uh... let me see." Zhou Xingzhi flipped through WeChat, clicked on Lao Zhao's profile picture, then flipped through his Moments, found the date announcing the good news, and said, "Born on the evening of July 12th."

"Five months, right?" the clerk confirmed. Zhou Xingzhi nodded. Chu Yue tiptoed over, holding his arm and looking at his phone. She clicked on the photo on his WeChat Moments, where a mother's hand was holding the child's tiny hand.

The child's hands were red, small, and pink. "Why didn't you take a picture of her face? Is it your daughter?"

Seeing her curiosity, he lowered his phone. "With his profession, it's not good to reveal too much. It's a daughter, I want a daughter too." Chu Yue pretended to pat his arm and said embarrassedly, "Nonsense again!"

The clerk brought a new baby suit, unpacked it and said, "This one is better. This size is suitable for a five-month-old baby."

"Okay, then this one. Do you have diapers? Bring me a few packs of diapers." Zhou Xingzhi put away his phone and prepared to pay.

"Is it enough?" Chu Yue saw that there was only one set of clothes, and was afraid that it was not enough, so she chose another one.

"Do you want milk powder? We are having a promotion right now." The clerk started selling to them.

"Milk powder... I'll send it to him later." Zhou Xingzhi thought about it and didn't know what kind of milk powder his daughter drank. If he bought the wrong one, it would be a waste of money.

"You two can also take a look, or add our store's official account. We will occasionally share some parenting knowledge, which is very suitable for new parents." The clerk packed the items and asked the cashier to scan and check out.

"Okay." When Zhou Xingzhi heard the words "new parents", he scanned the QR code on the checkout counter without thinking.

"What's so good about that? We don't know how long it will take, just pay the bill!" Chu Yue quickly stopped him.

"Oh." His wife didn't agree, so he took back his phone and opened the payment page.

Three packs of diapers, two boxes of baby clothes, and the groceries he bought almost couldn't fit on the electric bike. "I should have driven here earlier." Zhou Xingzhi put the things in the front and had to let Chu Yue carry the groceries.

"Let's go, isn't it not far?" Chu Yue sat in the back, holding the vegetables in one hand and holding his coat in the other.

The two of them wandered to Lao Zhao's house, where only his wife, children, and mother-in-law were.

The sister-in-law was waiting at the door with the child in her arms. The old lady opened the door. Chu Yue was very happy and ran to see the child. Zhou Xingzhi took the vegetables to the kitchen to cook. The old lady was polite and said that he was a guest and it was not appropriate for him to cook.

"Mom, don't worry about it. Old Zhao will be back soon and they can do it together." After the sister-in-law said that, the old lady took the vegetables and picked them in the yard, saying that she would help.

The child fell asleep, her face rosy and tender. Chu Yue took out two red envelopes and gave them to the child, but her sister-in-law said she didn't want any. Chu Yue said, "These are for the child, not for you and your wife. Please keep them for her, she will need them when she grows up and goes to school."

"Okay, then I'll keep it for her first." The sister-in-law couldn't refuse any longer, so she accepted the red envelope and asked, "When do you plan to get married and have children?"

"We... it's still early." Chu Yue sat on a small stool in the room, looking at the child who was sleeping soundly on the bed. She was so small that she didn't dare to hug her or touch her face, for fear of waking her up.

"Mr. Zhou is not young anymore, is he?" My sister-in-law smiled meaningfully.

"He...isn't in a hurry." Chu Yue felt a little guilty and quickly changed the subject: "Has the child been named? What's his name?"

When Old Zhao came home from get off work, he parked his electric bike in the yard and shouted, "Wife, are Xiao Zhou and the others here? Where's the child?" Before he even greeted Zhou Xingzhi, he went into the room to see the child. Seeing that the child was sleeping, he lowered his voice and greeted Chu Yue.

He pointed to the kitchen again, thinking about going to help. Zhou Xingzhi was steaming fish in the pot and ran into the room to check on the child. "What's the child's name?" He pinched the child's face and happily asked Chu Yue to join in teasing the child.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't wake up my precious daughter. If you want one, go give birth to one yourself." Old Zhao disliked his rough hands and feet and woke up his daughter again.

"Tsk, who doesn't have it?" Zhou Xingzhi squeezed Chu Yue's stool, wanting to sit on the same one with her. "Hey, is the meal ready? Just sit down!" Chu Yue was a little annoyed with him.

"Let Lao Zhao do it. I'm a guest. I have to look after my niece." He didn't want to leave, wanting to see the newborn baby again. Lao Zhao saw his daughter and went out to help.

Zhou Xingzhi looked at the little girl and felt his heart melt. She was sleeping quietly, but if someone teased her, she would move a little, without any anxiety or annoyance. "Yueyue, it would be great if we had a daughter too."

"Talking nonsense again! Don't wake him up!" Chu Yue quickly asked him to stay away from the child.

After they finished their meal, the child woke up. Zhou Xingzhi held the child, thinking it would be easy to entertain him, but the child started crying in his arms, and he didn't dare to move.

Chu Yue took the child and held him. When the child saw that someone else had changed, she stopped crying. The sister-in-law said, "Oh, this little girl likes beautiful women!"

"Yo yo yo, little one, who doesn't like beautiful women? Mommy is also a great beauty, isn't she?" Old Zhao held the child in his arms, teased her, and prepared to feed her.

Zhou Xingzhi, feeling a bit jealous, quietly walked over to Chu Yue and put his arm around her shoulders. "You two should have a baby sooner rather than later, so you'll know how tiring it is to take care of a child." The old lady brought out a plate of melon seeds and asked them to sit in the yard and chat.

After feeding the baby, Lao Zhao packed up and went to work.

"It's time for us to go back." Zhou Xingzhi picked up his coat at the door and handed it to Chu Yue, asking her to hold it. He then picked up her down jacket and put it on her. Chu Yue didn't understand this set of actions and looked a little at a loss as to what to do with his clothes.

"Help me put it on." Zhou Xingzhi held out his hands and stood obediently at the door, waiting for her to put the coat on him. Several people around were looking at her, and she immediately understood his intention.

Put on his coat and tell him to drive back quickly and not embarrass himself here. Lao Zhao was waiting for them at the door to set off together. After pushing the electric bike to the door, he took Chu Yue's hand and put it on his waist, deliberately placing the ring on her hand in front.

Along the way, he chatted with Lao Zhao in the front, while Chu Yue sat in the back, watching the world around him.

"Isn't Old Zhao's daughter very cute?" After Old Zhao turned the corner on his electric bike, Zhou Xingzhi asked Chu Yue behind him.

"Yeah." Chu Yue felt warm in the midday sun, and having just finished lunch, he felt like taking a nap. "We'll have a daughter someday and decorate the house pink." He envisioned a happy life for the three of them.

Chu Yue was listening in a daze and fell asleep leaning against his back.

She was woken up when they returned the car. She had slept in the warm sun all the way, and her face was tanned pink. Zhou Xing got out of the car, put the hood of his down jacket on her, quickly returned the car, and came out to walk her to the hotel.

"Want to sleep? What's wrong with your eyes? They're a little swollen. Let me take a look." Standing at the door of the hotel, Zhou Xingzhi took off her hat and found that her left eye was a little swollen.

"I didn't sleep well last night. I have to go upstairs to take a nap." Chu Yue turned her head away, not wanting to be with him in public.

Zhou Xingzhi went to the front desk and asked if they had any steam eye masks. A young lady at the front desk took one out of her bag and gave it to him. He wanted to pay, but the receptionist said it was a free gift. He ran to the elevator with the eye mask and said to Chu Yue, "Use this to apply to your face later."

"Didn't I stop you from talking to other girls? Why don't you let me talk to other men?" Chu Yue found that his possessiveness was becoming more and more unreasonable.

"No way? When Jiang Tao talks to you, I don't say anything, right?" He put the blindfold back into his pocket.
