My name is Xiao Wang, and I have been married to my wife Xiao Li for five years, but we have never had children. At first, we didn't care, thinking about taking our time, and the child's affairs were not in a hurry. But as the days went by, there were just two of us at home, and it was too quiet. Although my wife never mentions it, I know that she also longs for a child in her heart.
Just last month, we went to the hospital for a check-up. As a result, the doctor said that I had a problem with insufficient sperm count, and it was difficult for me to get pregnant naturally. Xiao Li and I were very sad when we heard this result. After returning home, Xiao Li said to me with red eyes: "It's okay, we can continue to work hard, or we can consider other ways." ”
I knew she was comforting me, but she was also sad. I've been having insomnia these days, and my mind is full of childless things. I really want to have a child, not only for myself, but also for Xiao Li.
Just yesterday, I suddenly had an idea. I thought maybe I could turn to my younger brother Xiao Zhang for help. He's in good health and can do us a favor. Today I invited him to dinner at my house to discuss this matter with him.
At dinner time, Xiao Zhang came to my house on time. Xiao Li and I prepared his favorite home-cooked food, and we chatted while eating. Xiao Li smiled and said, "Xiao Zhang, you haven't come to our house for dinner for a long time, have you been busy with work recently?"
Xiao Zhang said: "It's okay, the main reason is that I feel that you husband and wife are two worlds, and it's embarrassing for me to come alone." ”
I said, "Our family, what's so embarrassing! I grew up with you Xiao Li since childhood, and the three of us have such a good relationship, and the children will call you uncle in the future." ”
At the mention of the child, I saw Xiao Li's face change, and he lowered his head and ate silently. Xiao Zhang sensitively sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"
I took a deep breath and decided to say it directly: "Xiao Zhang, the truth is that we have always wanted to have a child, but the result of the examination is that I have fertility problems. So I want to beg you, can you do us a favor and have a child with Xiao Li. Do you think you can?"
After hearing this, Xiao Zhang's face showed an expression of disbelief. He put down the dishes and chopsticks and stammered, "Brother, what are you kidding, how can this work?"
Xiao Li blushed on the side, at a loss. I continued, "Brother, I know this is hard for you to accept. But you also know that we haven't had a child for five years, and you know how much Xiao Li longs for a child in his heart. Think of it as a help for your brother. ”
Xiao Zhang stood up and said excitedly: "No, brother, how do you let me face Xiao Li? We grew up together, she is like my own sister, how can I do such a thing to her?"
Seeing Xiao Zhang so excited, I also regretted saying it directly. I asked Xiao Zhang to calm down first and pulled him to the balcony to chat.
"Brother, calm down. I didn't come to you on a whim, I really decided to come to you after a lot of thought. ”
I sighed and patiently persuaded, "I can understand your difficulties. But do you think, Xiao Li has been suffering silently all these years, how painful do you say she is in her heart? As an elder brother, I can't do anything but ask you to help me with this. You and Xiao Li grew up together, and the relationship is so good, there shouldn't be a psychological burden, right?"
Xiao Zhang was still hesitating, and I continued: "I promise, only the three of us know about this matter. You and Xiao Li each take a step back, just to complete a process of childbirth, and it will not affect anyone. Xiao Li's gentle and understanding personality will definitely understand. ”
Xiao Zhang lowered his head, as if he was deep in thought. After a while, he raised his head and said resolutely: "No, brother, I can't hurt Xiao Li, and I can't hurt the relationship between you and her." That's the end of it. ”
I see that he has made up his mind, and he will no longer persuade him. We stood silently on the balcony with the night breeze blowing.
"Then let's go back. I broke the silence, "Tonight it's like it didn't happen, we're still family." ”
"Hmm. Zhang nodded.
Back at the dinner table, Xiao Li's face was a little pale. She tried to squeeze out a smile and said, "You have been talking for so long, are you saying bad things about me?"
I hurriedly said, "No, let's just talk casually, whether my brother has been busy with work lately or something." ”
Xiao Zhang also came back to his senses and pretended to be relaxed: "Yes, I didn't say anything bad about you." I also said that my sister-in-law's cooking is getting better and better. ”
After eating, Xiao Zhang said that he wanted to go back early. I escorted him to the door, and he was about to turn to leave, I pressed his shoulder: "Brother, I was wrong, I shouldn't have suddenly spread this out." I'm really sorry for the trouble I caused to you and Xiao Li. ”
Xiao Zhang looked at me, with pity and sadness in his eyes: "Brother, I understand your good intentions. That's all for this matter, you and your sister-in-law take care of yourself. ”
I nodded: "Then you should be careful on the road." ”
Back in the house, Xiao Li was washing dishes in the kitchen. Hear me come in,
Xiao Li turned his back to me, and his voice trembled a little: "Is he gone?"
I whispered, "Well, just sent him out." ”
Xiao Li stopped washing the dishes, but still didn't turn around, and stood in front of the sink in silence for a while.
After a while, she asked softly, "What did you tell him?"
I walked over, hugged her from behind, and whispered, "Don't think about it so much, tonight will be as if it didn't happen, we'll still be the same as before." ”
I looked at her distressedly and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "It's me who is not good, and I shouldn't embarrass my brother." He didn't agree, and I won't force it. We're still a family. ”
I patted her on the back and comforted her: "Don't say that, it's my physical cause, and it has nothing to do with you." We can't live without children for the rest of our lives, and I can't bear to see you live the rest of your childless life. Asking my brother is just me being confused for a while, we will have another way. ”
Xiao Li sobbed and nodded.
I went to work that day and was absent-minded. My colleague Xiao Zhao looked at my absent-minded appearance and asked with concern: "Lao Wang, have you been thinking about anything recently? ”
I smiled wryly and didn't answer directly: "Maybe it's a lot of pressure at work, and I always feel bottomless." ”
"Is there something going on at home? Are you on good terms with your sister-in-law?" Xiao Zhao continued to ask.
Xiao Zhao approached me and said mysteriously, "Why don't you try the doctor I introduced you to?" I heard that he is very effective in infertility, and you and your sister-in-law may have a chance. ”
I was a little surprised: "What kind of doctor? Can it be cured?"
"You don't have to ask so much about this. There's no harm in trying it anyway. Xiao Zhao smiled mysteriously and turned to leave.
I sat at my desk and my mind was a mess. Maybe the doctor Xiao Zhao said can really cure my problem, and maybe we can have a child of our own. But this method is too unreliable and makes me a little skeptical.
When I got home in the evening, I told Xiao Li about it. She was silent for a long time, and then shook her head resolutely: "No, we can't take this unclear path. Children's business, just let it take its course. ”
I know Xiao Li's personality, she has always been steady and cautious, and she will not easily believe in those uncertain methods.
"Yes, let's not take any chances. I nodded, "Let the child's will decide." ”
"Hmm. Xiao Li lightly agreed, lowered his head and wiped the table.
I could tell that, despite what she said, she still had expectations for a child of her own. I sat down next to her, shook her hand and said, "Don't be sad, the most important thing is that we are together as a couple, and everything else will be resolved slowly." ”
"I'm fine, don't worry. Xiao Li smiled reluctantly.
In the past few days, I tried to contact Xiao Zhang again, but he still didn't answer my phone. I guess he's still minding what happened and needs some time to calm down.
After a week, Xiao Zhang suddenly called, but his tone was still a little restrained: "Brother, do you have something to do with me?"
I said lightly, "There's nothing special, it's just that I suddenly remembered you and wanted to hear how you've been doing." ”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and Xiao Zhang said: "Brother, we have been brothers for so many years, you don't have to be like this." I won't take the last time to heart. ”
I smiled and said, "Good brother, I know you are the most reasonable." Our brotherhood will not change. ”
"Well, you and your sister-in-law take care. Xiao Zhang's tone finally relaxed.
Hanging up, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that our relationship with Xiao Zhang is finally back on track.
At dinner, I happily said to Xiao Li: "Xiao Zhang called just now, and we had a good chat, just like before." It seems that he doesn't mind what happened last time. ”
"Really? Great. Xiao Li also showed a relieved expression on his face.
"By the way, I wonder if we should invite Xiao Zhang to our house for a meal on the weekend," I said, "just like in the past, the three of us will get together lively, and the feeling of estrangement will be eliminated during this time." What do you think?"
Xiao Li smiled and nodded: "Okay, it's been a long time since I have cooked his favorite dishes for Xiao Zhang." On the weekend, I went to buy some ingredients and cook a few good dishes to celebrate the reunion of our three siblings. ”
"Great, that's it!" I said happily.
On the weekend, Xiao Li got up early in the morning and carefully prepared many dishes that Xiao Zhang likes to eat. I also went to the market early to buy some fruits that were in season.
At noon, Xiao Zhang came to our house on time. The three of them chatted word by word, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
"Come, Xiao Zhang try this apple, it's super sweet. Xiao Li smiled and handed Xiao Zhang a big red apple.
"Wow, it looks so good. Xiao Zhang happily took the apple and ate it with relish.
"Brother, try this roast chicken, it was roasted by Li Mei herself, it is super delicious. "I also beckoned Xiao Zhang to eat roast chicken.
"Okay!" Xiao Zhang ate happily, and praised Xiao Li's craftsmanship from time to time.
Seeing him eating happily, Xiao Li and I also relaxed. The meal was extraordinarily enjoyable, almost like our three siblings ate carefree when we were kids.
After lunch, Xiao Zhang offered to help wash the dishes. I saw that he seemed to be completely free of embarrassment, so I joked with him, "Haha, my brother's dishwashing skills are still as good as ever." ”
After washing the dishes, the three of us sat on the balcony and chatted. Xiao Li brought us a fruit bowl and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since we've been together so easily, I'm really super happy!"
"Me too!" "No matter what happens, we will always be family. ”
I nodded and said with emotion: "Yes, the relationship between our three brothers and sisters has always been so good since childhood, and no matter how many ups and downs we go through, it will not change." ”
"Hmm!" Xiao Li and Xiao Zhang agreed in unison.
From that day on, I felt like the relationship between the three of us was back to what it used to be. Xiao Zhang would often come to the house as a guest, chatting with us, watching movies, and hanging out together. Sometimes Xiao Li and I have to work overtime, and Xiao Zhang will take the initiative to come over to help cook and clean.
On the weekend, our family of three went to the suburbs to go out and chat while enjoying the flowers. Xiao Li said happily: "Being with you is the happiest thing in my life. ”
"So do we. I held Xiao Li's hand and said with emotion, "With you by my side, I feel that life is complete." ”
"Hehe, I also like to be with you the most. Xiao Zhang said with a smile.
I looked at the two people closest to me in front of me, and my heart was filled with gratitude. Through all those ups and downs, our relationship has grown stronger. I know that no matter what happens in the future, we will support each other through all difficulties.
In this way, in a harmonious and joyful atmosphere, we spent one weekend after another. Xiao Li's life and I are gradually back on track, we will go to the movies, go shopping, travel, and enjoy the time that belongs to the two of us.
One night, Xiao Li suddenly said to me, "Husband, I feel that something is wrong with my body recently. ”
I got nervous, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with your body?"
I suddenly realized what she meant, and excitedly asked, "You mean, you might be pregnant?"
Xiao Li nodded shyly: "Well, I think it may be, because I haven't had a period for more than a month." ”
"Oh my God, that's exhilarating!" I was so happy that I hugged Xiao Li tightly, "We are finally going to have our own children!"
Xiao Li was also overjoyed: "I'm not sure yet, but I do have a wonderful premonition in my heart." Let's go to the hospital for a check-up recently. ”
"Okay, I'll ask for leave to accompany you to check tomorrow!" I've started to figure out what our children will look like.
"Great!" I was so excited that I couldn't speak, and Xiao Li couldn't help but shed tears of joy.
Back home, we couldn't wait to call Xiao Zhang to tell him the good news. Xiao Zhang was also very excited: "Oh my God, I can't believe it! This is such a miracle, I am so happy!"
"yes, we feel like we're dreaming, too. I said.
"Looks like I'm going to be an uncle soon!" Xiao Zhang said happily, "You must take good care of yourself and your baby." If you need anything, just let me help. ”
"Okay, my brother is the most reliable!" I said with a smile.
Hanging up the phone, Xiao Li said happily: "With such a good brother as Xiao Zhang, I think the birth of the baby will be very happy." ”
"yes. "I was also very emotional.
In the days that followed, Xiao Li and I lived the life of expectant parents. Xiao Zhang also often comes to the house, cares about Xiao Li's physical condition, and brings us some nutrition and things that pregnant women need from time to time.
Xiao Li's belly is getting bigger and bigger. One night, when we were lying in bed, Xiao Li suddenly said, "Husband, the baby kicked me, come and feel it!"
I excitedly put my hand on her round belly, and sure enough, I felt a slight kick from the baby. I'm so excited,
