Gu Qingyao saw that she was still yawning as she came downstairs. “You’ve… just gotten up?”
The cook had already brought her breakfast over and placed it on the dining table.
Ji Mingyue nodded. “That’s right! I’ve been sleeping a lot lately. I often sleep until 8 or 9 am. The problem is that I also slept very early last night. It’s not as if I stayed up late!”
Gu Qingyao laughed. “It’s fine. It’s normal for pregnant women to sleep a lot. If you’re tired, it’s better to get more sleep.”
Ji Mingyue sat down for breakfast. “Have you eaten? Do you want some?”
“No, I ate at home before I came over.”
“Oh! Sigh… I’ve been eating and sleeping a lot lately. I think I’ve put on weight!”
Girls could not help but gain weight during pregnancy, but no girl wanted to be fat. It was unattractive!
Gu Qingyao laughed. “Everyone goes through that. Don’t worry. You’ve just put on a tiny bit of weight. When the child is born, you will slowly go back to the way you were.”
Ji Mingyue sighed. “I hope so! Your Second Cousin is fattening me up like a piglet. My pregnancy is less advanced than yours! But now I’m fatter than you.”
Gu Qingyao laughed. “That shows that Second Cousin dotes on you. It’s a blessing!”
Gu Jinhang was really very good to her. Ji Mingyue’s expression softened at the thought of it.
“Heehee, it’s true!”
They were chatting when Fifth Cousin Gu Jinxuan came downstairs. He looked half-awake. When he came downstairs, he shouted, “Aunt Wang, bring me some breakfast.”
Gu Qingyao was shocked to see him!
“Fifth Cousin!”
Gu Jinxuan smiled when he saw Gu Qingyao. “Younger Cousin, you’ve come! How have you been lately? Has my little nephew been behaving himself?”
Gu Qingyao laughed, “He’s pretty good. He’s still very small! So he doesn’t cause much trouble.”
The child was still unborn, and she was in the early stages of pregnancy, so she did not experience much discomfort.
Gu Jinxuan laughed, “That’s great, that’s great.”
The cook brought him his breakfast, and Gu Jinxuan began eating.
Gu Qingyao noticed that he was wearing a necklace and a branded watch on his wrist. He was wearing a beaded bracelet on his other wrist. They were very expensive beads and were interspersed with two gold charms.
To someone like Gu Qingyao, the price of something like that was nothing. But within the capital’s circles, this was definitely considered a luxury item.
Gu Qingyao remembered that Fifth Cousin was not wearing these things the day he arrived at the Gu house.
Gu Qingyao smiled and asked, “Fifth Cousin, where did you buy your watch? It looks quite nice!”
Gu Jinxuan was taken aback, but then grew animated. “Younger Cousin, do you think it’s nice too? Hehehe, I bought this recently. It costs more than a thousand yuan! It’s definitely of high quality! Let me tell you! Few of the rich young men in the capital have this watch.”
Gu Jinxuan looked very smug at the mention of his watch. Gu Qingyao frowned when she saw that.
“Also, what do you think of this beaded bracelet? It cost me more than eight hundred yuan! It’s so beautiful!”
Gu Qingyao smiled rather indifferently. “Did you buy that recently too? It’s pretty nice.”
“That’s right! I just bought it together with my watch. I’ve only been wearing it for a few days.”
Gu Qingyao said with a smile, “Fifth Cousin, you’re so freehanded. Such expensive items must have cost you one or two years’ salary at a go!”
Gu Jinxuan laughed. “Of course, I’m not that rich! Grandma gave me the money.. I was so jealous when I saw the watch that Second Cousin was wearing, so I asked Grandma for some money to buy one too.”
