In the winter evening, the cold wind blows and the snow on the ground is thick.

Seeing that it was getting dark, pedestrians on the road wrapped up their cotton-padded jackets tightly, quickened their pace, and hurried home.

Next to this secluded alley, Ran Qiuhe and Zou He stood face to face.

Facing Zou He's inquiry, Ran Qiuye bit her lips lightly, as if she wanted to speak but didn't know how to speak.

How should she tell Zou He what she thought?

Should she tell Zou He directly what she thinks? She wants a child?

Do you want Zou He to spend more time with you so that you can have a child with him?

How could she open her mouth?

Zou He looked at Ran Qiuye and said nothing. He was immediately confused. Ran Qiuye's cheeks were rosy. He thought she was cold, so he said, "Why don't we go into the room and talk? I see your face is red from the cold."

After hearing this, Ran Qiuye felt relieved, nodded quickly, and said, "Okay! Then go to my house!"

Zou He looked in the direction of Ran Qiuye's finger and realized that this place was actually near Ran Qiuye's home.

Just cross the road and you're there.

Zou He nodded and followed Ran Qiuye, who had a bright smile on his face, to her home.

As soon as she entered the door, Ran's mother was cooking in the kitchen. She heard the door knock and took a look. She only saw Ran Qiuye entering the door, but did not see Zou He following behind. She thought it was Ran Qiuye who came back by herself and immediately started complaining again.

"Qiuye, didn't I ask you to wait for Zou He on the roadside? How come you rescued him so quickly?"

"Have you met Zou He? Didn't you say that thing again?"

"You kid, you are really clumsy and talkative. You are at home all the time and don't think about food. You just want to talk to Zou He about that matter. Why are you so embarrassed? What's the relationship between you two?

I'm sorry, Mom is telling you, if you really want to have a child, you must tell Kazuko, otherwise, when will you get your wish? You..."

After hearing Ran's mother's words, Zou He finally understood what Ran Qiuye wanted to say when he hesitated just now.

It turns out that this is what happened...

Zou He looked at Ran Qiuye aside and saw that her face was even redder than when she was outside the door just now.

Obviously, what Ran's mother said was beyond her expectation, and she was caught off guard, anxious and embarrassed.

Zou He looked at Ran Qiuye's flustered and shy look, and Zou He couldn't help but smile.

Ran Qiuye is a calm, self-possessed, quiet and reserved person. Zou He has never seen him look like this before. On the contrary, he finds it quite interesting.

Although when he and Ran Qiuye first got together, it was because he drank too much.

But since Ran Qiuye followed him, Zou He would naturally not treat her badly.

I will also often send them some food.

There is meat to eat every three days, there is no shortage of white flour at home, and new clothes and fabrics will be purchased during holidays.

The living standards of Ran Qiuye and her daughter can be considered quite good in this era.

Zou He thought that Ran Qiuye would be doing very well by doing this, but now he realized that Ran Qiuye actually wanted this in her heart... She wanted to have a child for him and her.

Zou He's heart moved slightly.

Ran Qiuye felt even more embarrassed when she felt Zou He's gaze.

"Mom! Stop talking nonsense! I..." Ran Qiuye was shocked when she heard her mother's words and shouted quickly.

"Did I talk nonsense? Why am I talking nonsense again? Didn't you say that you want a child for yourself and Zou He? You are embarrassed to say it yourself, so why do you blame me for talking nonsense again?"

As Ran's mother spoke, she flipped the spoon and stir-fried the vegetables. She had no idea that the protagonist he was talking about was standing in her yard.

"Mom!!!" Ran Qiuye was ashamed and embarrassed, so he quickly interrupted her again and said, "Hezi is here!"

Hearing this, the sound of stir-frying suddenly stopped. The next moment, Ran's mother was wiping her hands on her apron and walking quickly out of the kitchen.

"Yo! Hezi is here!"

"You came at the right time. I have just made rice and am cooking. I will start eating right away! Qiuye, hurry up and let Kazuko come in and sit down!"

Ran's mother spoke with a smile on her face, as if she hadn't said anything just now.

Ran Qiuye quickly pulled Zou He into the house as if to escape.

When she got to the house, Ran Qiuye breathed a sigh of relief, no longer worried about her mother's nonsense.

She looked down and realized that she had just come in holding Zou He's hand.

Ran Qiuye suddenly felt as if his hands were being burned, and quickly let go and jumped back.

He stammered: "Hezi, I, I was just anxious, so, don't mind..."

Zou He smiled and took a step forward, walking to Ran Qiuye again, and the distance between the two shortened again.

Zou He lowered his head and looked at Ran Qiuye, who was as tall as his chest, with a look of shyness and embarrassment on his face. He said, "The relationship between the two of us is just holding hands. There is no need to explain to me."

Hearing Zou He's words, Ran Qiuye was stunned for a moment, and immediately felt overjoyed.

Does Zou He's words mean that he recognized the close relationship between them?

Do you think they are people you can hold hands with?

Before Ran Qiuye could react, Zou He's hand had already taken hers and whispered in her ear: "Don't be so surprised. Of course, if you want to do something else, it's not impossible...

I’m here to accompany you.”

When Zou He said this, he looked at Ran Qiuye with half-smiling eyes. Ran Qiuye was so embarrassed that he couldn't hold it anymore and buried his face in Zou He's chest.

When Ran's mother, who was about to bring the dishes in, saw this scene, she immediately stepped back with a knowing smile.

He also helped the two of them close the door.

Now that Zou He has finally come, if his daughter's wish can be fulfilled, today is an excellent opportunity, and Ran's mother certainly can't let them miss it.

Thinking of this, Ran's mother held her rice bowl, happily opened the door and went out.

Zou He and Ran Qiuye hugged Niwai for a while. Zou He picked up Ran Qiuye and walked towards the back room. Ran Qiuye was shocked and said quickly: "No! What if my mother comes in..."

Zou He smiled and bumped Ran Qiuye's head, and said, "Your mother is much smarter than you. She went out long ago and even locked the door for us before leaving. Don't worry!"

Ran Qiuye was relieved and leaned into Zou He's arms with a sweet smile.

…

After that, Ran Qiuye leaned on Zou He's arms and said tentatively: "Hezi, I have something that I still want to tell you..."

"What do you mean?" Zou He asked.

"You, can you come to my house more often in the future? Not once a day, but once every two days, or once every three days!" Ran Qiuye was afraid that Zou He would find it troublesome, so he quickly set a wider schedule.

As long as Hezi can come, her wish will hopefully come true.

From the first day Ran Qiuye met Zou He, she knew that Zou He was a person who valued family. She also knew what kind of existence Qin Jingru was to Zou He. She had never argued with him and had no intention of arguing.

She just wanted to be with Zou He occasionally.

Such a life is already a luxury for her, and she is very satisfied.

She can never get married and wait here for Zou He's arrival.

But as the days passed, Ran Qiuye felt lonely.

In addition, Ran's mother often nags in her ears, saying that she is getting older and older, and when she is no longer there, no one will accompany Ran Qiuye, so she should hurry up and have a child while she is young.

Ran Qiuye was also moved.

She longed more and more to have a child of hers and Zou He's.

That will be God's greatest gift to her.

…

Ran's mother sat outside the door and greeted the neighbors with a smile. When someone asked her why she didn't go home for dinner so late and it was so cold outside, Ran's mother smiled and said nothing.

At home, there is a sinful and distinguished guest.

After a long time, Zou He opened the door and came out, followed by Ran Qiuye, and Ran's mother quickly stood up.

"Hezi, are you leaving? Sit down for a while!" Ran's mother said enthusiastically.

Zou He said with a smile: "It's getting late, I have to go."

After saying that, he got on his bicycle and left. When Ran's mother saw Zou He leaving, she quickly pulled Ran Qiuye into the house.

As soon as I entered the room, before I even sat down on the stool, I immediately asked a barrage of questions: "How is it?"

"Did you tell Zou He? Let him come once a day? Did he agree? What did you say?"

Ran's mother asked eagerly.

Ran Qiuye's face was red and she was a little embarrassed, but the sweet smile on the corner of her mouth had revealed her mood.

"Mom... don't ask." Ran Qiuye lowered his head shyly.

"Why don't you ask me not to ask? This is your most important event, how could you not ask?"

"Tell me quickly. Have you told Kazuko? Has he agreed?"
