This was something she had never thought she would get back.
Aria hugged the teddy bear tightly with tears in her eyes. "Thank you, Daddy. Thank you, Daddy. I like it very much! I like it..."
Seeing his daughter crying and saying that she liked the teddy bear, Justin felt like his heart was about to melt.
He picked up the handkerchief and wiped his daughter's tears with some unfamiliarity. He said," Don't cry." For a moment, he looked a little flustered.
After that, Aria finally calmed down. Then, she sat on the chair obediently and played with the bear so that her parents could have a good talk.
Wendy scooped some water into the basin and poured hot water from the thermos so that Justin could wash his face and hands. Otherwise, he would be covered in dust.
"Didn't you say that you would be back tomorrow?" Wendy asked curiously. Justin had bought the ticket for tomorrow. How could it be brought forward?
Justin washed his face and wiped it with a towel as he replied, "I booked the tickets a little late, but someone suddenly decided to come home a day later, so he gave me his ticket."
Wendy smiled and nodded. Justin was really lucky.
"How's the family? Is everything okay? Are you feeling well?" Justin and Wendy sat by the bed. He looked at his wife and asked with concern. There was a hint of guilt in his eyes.
Justin worked at a construction site. Although he knew when Wendy was going to give birth, he did not come back to earn money. He had not been able to accompany her for a month, and now, he finally came back before his son was one month old.
Justin felt sorry for his wife. His mother had passed away before Wendy married. It was difficult to find a wife in the countryside without a mother because there was no mother-in-law to take care of the children.
Perhaps it was because Wendy had never had a mother since she was young, so she could understand the pain of not having a mother. That was why she didn't break off the engagement with Justin.
However, because of this, Wendy had no mother-in-law to take care of her when she gave birth to Aria or her son. She didn't have her mother to take care of her either. It was hard for her, and she had to cook for herself during the confinement period.
Therefore, Justin felt guilty when he saw Wendy. He could not give her a better life.
Wendy saw the look in Justin's eyes and reached out to hold his hand, which was rough and cracked from years of hard work. Her eyes were gentle.
"I'm fine. You don't have to worry about anything. Everything at home is fine." Her eyes told her husband that she was fine.
Justin gently patted his wife's shoulder, his eyes showing a hint of pain.
He knew that this was his wife comforting him. Without someone to take care of her, how could she be fine?
Although he could not do it now, he would let his wife and children live a better life in the future. He definitely would...
Justin's hope for the future grew even stronger.
"By the way, are you hungry? Did you eat on the bus?" Wendy asked.
Justin wasn't hungry at first, but after hearing his wife's concern, he was really hungry. He had been on the bus for more than a day. Although the bus would stop midway for people to eat, the restaurant was expensive and not delicious. Therefore, he bought two sandwiches from the store before he got on the bus. By now, the sandwiches had long been digested.
"Is there anything left? I can heat a sandwich to eat." Justin said. He didn't want his wife to cook for him.
"Daddy, there are pizza and cookies. What do you want to eat?" Aria heard Justin's words and got down from the stool. She put the toys on the stool and ran to the kitchen.
"Auntie made it." Wendy smiled and said, "Go get whatever you want to eat. There are no more meals in the pot, but I made some pickled cucumbers two days ago. You can accompany a sandwich with them."
Wendy had specially made the pickled cucumbers because Justin was coming back. She couldn't eat such salty food because it would affect her milk.
Justin nodded and went to the kitchen. He was surprised to find that his daughter had already poured water into the pot and placed the sandwich, pizza, and cake on it.
"My daughter is so amazing!" Justin said with a smile. Then, he covered the pot and placed it on the stove. Then, he pulled out the valve.
Aria looked at her father with a smile.
After that, Justin brought his daughter out of the kitchen.
"Have you been sleeping in the kitchen these days?" Justin asked.
"She has been sleeping on the sofa." Wendy replied.
Justin said," Let Aria sleep on the sofa in the future. It's too humid in the kitchen. It's not good for her. It would be cool to sleep in that room in July and August."
Wendy nodded. She also felt that the room was too damp. Her daughter had some red rashes on her body after sleeping for two days. Although it was not a big problem, it meant that it was really bad for her body. Therefore, the sofa was better.
"Ah... Ah..."
As they spoke, the baby lying on the bed woke up.
Justin quickly went over to take a look and saw a pair of black eyes that were very bright.
"That's great." Justin smiled.
"By the way, did you give our son a name?" Wendy asked with a smile.
Aria stood by the bed and looked at her father. She remembered that her father did not give her brother the name...
"I've come up with a few names that aren't very good. I think you can give him one." Justin scratched his head in embarrassment. He had only been in junior high school and had not gone to school again, so he did not know how to think about names.
He felt that his wife was better at this kind of thing. For example, her daughter's name was very nice and rarely repeated with others. At least it was different from Mary, Tia, Ada, and so on in the village.
Wendy smiled and said," I did come up with a few names. I want to give our son the name Andy. What do you think?"
"Andy? Andy Lewis?"
"The name 'Andy' means outstanding." Wendy reached out and pinched her son's chubby cheeks.
Aria also shouted," It's a nice name!"
Wendy reached out and patted her daughter's head.
Justin repeated the name a few times and felt that it was a good name. He nodded and said, "Then let's call him Andy. I'll register it tomorrow!"
