Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 234 - 233: Sheng Zexi’s Dad-Style Baby Stroller
"Alright, don’t overthink it. There’s nothing between Comrade Li and me. Since you don’t like me having too much contact with him, I won’t actively engage with him anymore."
Gu Jia Ning doesn’t feel there’s anything wrong with this, nor does she feel restricted by Sheng Zexi in her freedom to make friends.
To be fair, Gu Jia Ning is a bit obsessive by nature.
In her mind, she divides people into important and unimportant ones.
She certainly needs to clearly distinguish who is most important to her.
As for those unimportant ones, she doesn’t care.
For Gu Jia Ning, Sheng Zexi is important, while Li Tingxuan, whom she has only met a few times without much interaction, is unimportant.
So, if there’s ever a need to give up one person between the two, undoubtedly, it would be Li Tingxuan.
And she doesn’t need to make an important person unhappy for the sake of an unimportant one.
People can’t have it all; they need to recognize what is most important to them and hold onto it tightly, and that’s enough to live a good life.
"Wife, thank you." Sheng Zexi knows that he is somewhat domineering.
But he just feels Li Tingxuan’s intentions aren’t pure, so he doesn’t want his wife to have much contact with him.
"Alright, let’s go outside, or else Grandma might start worrying."
"Okay."
As they stepped out of the room, they saw Grandma Sang holding the children and looking over with concern.
Seeing them still happy together, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
For an elder, the biggest fear is the younger ones having conflicts.
Now that she sees they’re both doing well, she’s relieved.
After dinner, Sheng Zexi started carving wood in the yard.
This tree trunk was something he had dragged down from the mountain.
With Gu Jia Ning explaining, he planned to make a stroller for the two kids, one that can fit both, allowing him to take them out for walks.
Whenever he has time, Sheng Zexi has been carving wood this period.
Since he hasn’t done it before, it took him a full week to finish making the stroller.
However, he still feels it’s not enough.
Whenever he has time, he carefully smooths out the edges, worried there might be sharp or jagged areas that could hurt the children.
While Sheng Zexi was working on the stroller, Gu Jia Ning and Grandma Sang watched with the children.
Even Amber was there with its four cubs watching too.
"Xingxing, Yueyue, look, Daddy is making a stroller for you."
"With the stroller, we can take you outside for a walk."
"How do you feel, are you happy?"
Xingxing and Yueyue poked their eyes from the swaddling clothes, curiously watching the scene in front of them.
Regardless of whether they can see clearly now, they are watching intently.
Even occasionally clapping their hands, making sounds like "ah-ah", as if cheering Daddy on.
Finally, a few days later, the stroller was polished and finished.
Gu Jia Ning even exchanged for two strings of bells from the System Mall, which don’t have any special function other than moving to improve infants’ vision, and the sound is melodious, making people feel happy.
Once the stroller was polished, Gu Jia Ning placed the two little ones into it.
The little ones were very satisfied with this new travel tool.
They liked the bells hanging in front of them as well.
Constantly reaching out to touch, and when the bells rang, they clapped happily along.
But since the kids are still young, even though the stroller is finished, it hasn’t been used to take them out yet.
Gu Jia Ning suggested adding two layers of cloth at the front of the stroller, one layer of gauze to prevent flying sand and dust, and a thick layer to block rain and similar elements.
Sheng Zexi thought it was a good suggestion, and continued to fine-tune and repair the stroller when he had time.
-
After the children turned a month old, they seemed to grow quickly.
In the blink of an eye, Xingxing and Yueyue were already three months old.
Today, Sheng Zexi had a rare day off.
Xingxing and Yueyue were placed in the stroller, which Sheng Zexi pushed while Gu Jia Ning and Grandma Sang followed beside him.
Today was considered Xingxing and Yueyue’s first outing since they were born.
The family drove to the town.
They planned to take photos.
Mainly for the children, but also a family photo.
To send to Grandpa Sang in Beijing, and the maternal family in Huaihua Village.
The car stopped in the town, the stroller was taken down, and the children placed inside, with Sheng Zexi pushing the stroller as they headed towards the photo studio with Gu Jia Ning and Grandma Sang.
It’s October now, and the weather began cooling at the end of last month, but today is sunny and the temperature is decent.
With their family outing, they drew a lot of attention from passersby.
Sheng Zexi rarely wore his military uniform, but his demeanor and the way he walked unmistakably marked him as a military person.
He is tall and handsome, really attracting people.
The self-assured boldness between his eyebrows gives people a feeling that he’s hard to deal with.
But such a seemingly formidable person is pushing a stroller.
Inside the stroller are two adorable babies, white and plush.
This contrast is quite endearing, drawing more attention.
Many elderly folks focused their gaze on the babies inside the stroller.
No wonder, they’re too cute, causing a desire to hug them, and kiss them lovingly.
However, the person with the highest turnaround rate is undoubtedly Gu Jia Ning.
After all, Gu Jia Ning is indeed beautiful.
She’s the kind whose face would make heads turn, regardless of gender.
Some people looking at Gu Jia Ning feel increasingly familiar.
Gu Jia Ning previously appeared in the newspapers, many people have read the paper, so naturally, now she looks familiar.
Xingxing and Yueyue went outside for the first time, seeing so many people made them very happy.
Their curious eyes looked around, as though trying to see through everything as best they could.
They made "ah-ah" noises frequently, occasionally clapping their hands.
Soon, the family reached the photo studio.
Seeing their good looks, even the photographers were amazed.
Despite Grandma Sang’s age, she still has charming elegance.
In her youth, Grandma Sang was a great beauty.
The family first took a family photo.
Then, Sheng Zexi and Gu Jia Ning each held a child and took a few photos.
"Wife, let’s take a family photo every year from now on, shall we?" Sheng Zexi asked.
"Okay," Gu Jia Ning agreed readily.
Taking photos is also a way to document life and growth.
After taking pictures, the photos couldn’t be retrieved immediately, so the family went to the state-run restaurant for a meal.
They then wandered around town for quite a while, only driving back home in the afternoon.
Three days later, the photos arrived.
Gu Jia Ning packed the previously purchased items into parcels, slipping in the photos, and brought them to the young soldiers for unified mailing.
The parcels were sent out that same day.
Since Beijing is relatively close, Grandpa Sang received the package first.
Little did Grandpa Sang expect, while unpacking, for that old rascal Sheng Xinhao to show up!
