"OK."

The two lay on the bed and chatted for more than 20 minutes, then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

August 14th.

Sunday.

On this day, Bai He and his family had a very light breakfast.

Millet porridge with side dishes.

Two side dishes, stir-fried cowpeas and stir-fried lotus root.

During breakfast, Bai Guohua asked Bai Hedao: "What did you get today?"

Bai He smiled and said: "It's a crab again."

Bai Guohua smiled and said: "What kind of crab?"

Bai He replied: "Butter crab."

"Butter crab?" Bai Guohua smiled and shook his head, "I've never heard of it. Is it expensive?"

"It's very, very expensive." Bai He said with a smile.

"Imported?"

"No, they are made in China." Bai He said, "Dad, do you know blue crabs?"

"I know, I ate it once at a friend's house. The three-door blue crab is quite famous."

"Blue crabs, female, will become butter crabs under special conditions." Bai He said, "After the butter crab is steamed, the color of the crab body is between red and yellow, and the crab cover and claw joints can be seen through.

Yellow fat, said to taste great."

Yu Lixian asked: "What price can it be sold for?"

Bai He replied: "The big one weighs several thousand pounds."

Yu Lixian smiled and said: "Can you become an immortal after eating it?"

"You will definitely not become an immortal after eating it." Bai He said with a smile, "But there are many people who are willing to pay a high price to eat butter crab. Today at noon, we will steam two of them and each person will eat half of one."

"Half one?" Bai Guohua chuckled, "There are very few butter crabs?"

"It's not too little, 10,000 kilograms. Recently, we have eaten too many crabs. It's better to eat less."

After breakfast, Bai He called his father-in-law.

After chatting for a while, Bai He said: "Dad, you and mom can come and stay in Baijiacun for a few days."

"Okay. I have something to do today. I'll go there tomorrow morning."

"OK."

"I looked at Xiaoya's circle of friends. Yesterday, both Yanyu and Xiaoxiao went to your house."

"Yes, we invited them to our house for two meals. We also played mahjong in the afternoon. My family lost and the three families won."

"You also play mahjong?"

"I'm not very good at hitting. Fortunately, the hit was small, otherwise I would have suffered a huge loss."

"How much did you lose?"

"More than five hundred yuan."

"Even if you lose five million, you won't feel bad, right?" Father-in-law said with a smile.

"I don't have a gambling addiction. Even if I travel to Macau, I won't gamble heavily."

"It's best not to go to Macau. Don't get involved in bad things. Many people think they have self-control. If they get involved, they can't quit."

"Dad, don't worry, I won't touch things that I shouldn't touch. I only play mahjong at home at most. Even if I go to the homes of relatives and friends, I won't play mahjong."

"That's good of you to think so."

Bai He heard the sound of a new call coming in. He glanced at the screen and said, "Dad, a new call came in here. I hung up. Tomorrow morning, you and mom will come to Baijiacun."

"Okay. Bye!"

After ending the call with his father-in-law, Bai He answered the unfamiliar call.

It was a call from a housing agency in Hangzhou, asking him if he was interested in a subway house. Bai He didn't say a word and hung up the phone.

At noon that day, Bai He took out two butter crabs, chilled them with ice cubes for more than ten minutes, and then put them in a pot to steam them.

After steaming, Bai He took a knife and cut the butter crab in half.

Each person got half a butter crab.

After tasting it, Bai He and his family all praised the deliciousness.

Yu Lixian smiled and said: "I should steam four of them, half of them won't be enough."

"Listen to your son." Bai Guohua said, "Although crabs are delicious, you can't eat too much."

Bai He smiled and said: "I think eating half a butter crab every day should not have much negative impact on the body."

That afternoon, Bai He drove a sports car to the city alone, went into a drugstore, and bought a pregnancy test stick.

…

…

August 15th.

Monday.

This morning, Wang Xiaoya used a pregnancy test stick to test her pregnancy.

"Husband, two bars!"

"Great, I'm pregnant!" Bai He said happily.

"We are not 100% sure of pregnancy yet. It may be a tumor with endocrine function."

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Haha!" Wang Xiaoya smiled, "Why don't you get up yet?"

"It's still early, you lie down and chat with me."

"Okay!" Wang Xiaoya lay down on the bed and nestled in Bai He's arms.

"That's great!" Bai He gently touched his wife's belly.

"I hope I'm really pregnant."

"I'm going to have a prenatal check-up in a few days, is that okay?"

"Yes, but I don't think it's necessary. I will be eight weeks old on September 2. I plan to go for a prenatal check-up on September 6."

"When do you want to go for a prenatal check-up? You arrange it, and I will listen to you." Bai He smiled and said, "Honey, have you ever talked about prenatal check-ups with anyone?"

"Yes. The information I read online may not be suitable for me."

“Is the Municipal Maternal and Child Health Hospital the best in Qucheng?”

"The Municipal Maternal and Child Health Hospital is the hospital with the largest delivery volume in Qucheng. I don't know if it is the best."

"It should be the best." Bai He smiled and said, "Honey, if you hadn't quit your job at school and you were pregnant, you would have maternity leave. You can also get paid during the holiday."

"Are you concerned about such a small amount of money?"

"I'm not worried about it, that's what I said." Bai He chuckled, "I'll tell my parents the good news when we have breakfast later."

Wang Xiaoya hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

"How about waiting for your parents to come before announcing the good news."

"You decide, I'll listen to you."

"Bah!" Bai He smiled and kissed his wife on the cheek, "I'm going to show you something good. Close your eyes first."

"Okay." Wang Xiaoya smiled and closed her eyes.

With a thought in his mind, Bai He took out a 20-gram rough sapphire from the space-time trading system, placed it on the palm of his hand, and said: "Dong dong dong, you can open your eyes now."

Wang Xiaoya opened her eyes and saw the rough sapphire in Bai He's hand. She immediately became interested. She reached out to pick up the gem and said with a smile: "Hubby, is this a sapphire?"

"Yes."

"This color is beautiful, cornflower blue?"

"I don't know if it can reach the guarantee of cornflower blue. Even if it can't, it can still be regarded as a top-grade sapphire."

"Okay, one piece, how many carats is it?"

"20 grams, 1000 carats."

"After cutting, the finished sapphire is over fifty carats..."

"The shape of this gemstone is very good, and it can be cut into a finished product of more than 70 carats."
