Volume 1 Chapter 274 Going for a Prenatal Checkup

Since that time, Gu's mother would go to see her in the middle of the night and give her a massage.

"Why don't you call for help, kid?"

"It's you who's suffering from the cramp."

Sheng Wanyan was embarrassed to ask Gu's mother to massage her feet. After all, it was quite embarrassing.

Sheng Wanyan is thin-skinned in this regard, and Gu's mother also knows what she is thinking, so she tries to alleviate her discomfort.

"These are all trivial matters. If you have any problem, just call mom."

"It's not like Mom has ever taken care of you as her daughter-in-law. There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

Sheng Wanyan nodded when she heard this, and felt a little warm in her heart.

Before I knew it, half a month had passed and it was Sheng Wanyan's prenatal checkup day.

Mother Gu packed her things early in the morning and accompanied her to the hospital for a check-up.

When they arrived at the hospital, they saw Pan's mother who was on duty. She enthusiastically took them to the director's office of the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Pan's mother and Gu's mother also knew each other. They were not familiar with each other before, but now they have become relatives, so they naturally started chatting.

Sheng Wanyan went through a set of examinations as usual. This time, her mother Gu accompanied her, and the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department gave her more detailed instructions.

"Did you have cramps while sleeping?"

Sheng Wanyan nodded. She had been suffering from cramps frequently in the middle of the night recently.

"If you want to supplement calcium, you can eat milk powder, eggs, meat, fish, walnuts, and peanuts."

"It's best to eat some seafood and use the dried shrimps to make soup. Cold seafood should not be eaten."

Mother Gu wrote everything down; she knew what could be eaten and what could not be eaten.

"The baby is healthy and the pregnant woman is also in good health. She is now 7 months old and needs to be taken good care of."

“Be sure to come for inspection on time.”

"Good doctor."

Mother Gu wrote everything down and will strictly follow the doctor's instructions.

"Is my daughter-in-law okay?"

The director of gynecology felt relieved when she saw how caring Gu's mother-in-law was.

"Is this your mother-in-law?"

"yes."

The director of gynecology said that it was rare to see a mother-in-law who cared so much about her daughter-in-law. Every mother-in-law who came would ask if her grandson was okay.

I never ask a pregnant woman how she is feeling or whether she is in danger.

The director of gynecology has examined Sheng Wanyan so many times that he couldn't help but sigh that Sheng Wanyan is very lucky.

The husband cares about it, and the mother-in-law also cares.

"Pregnant women are in good health. The most important thing now is to supplement calcium, which is also good for the baby's bone development."

"Okay, thank you, doctor."

When Mother Gu heard that Sheng Wanyan was in good health, she felt relieved.

"You're welcome. Remember to come for checkup on time."

Mother Gu and Sheng Wanyan nodded and left the hospital.

After Mother Gu sent Sheng Wanyan home, Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng came.

He was holding a pound of meat in his hand, which Pan Yue had asked the two old men to bring.

When she was pregnant, her sister-in-law gave her a lot of nourishment. She understood that her sister-in-law did this for the two elderly people.

But that's because my sister-in-law still loves me as her sister-in-law, so I can't be ungrateful, right?

"How is it? What did the doctor say?"

"Everything is fine, grandpa and grandma don't worry."

Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng felt relieved. When Mother Gu saw that Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng were there, she asked them to look after Sheng Wanyan.

I rode my bike to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy shrimps.

Gu's mother has been here for more than a month and is already very familiar with the place, so Sheng Wanyan is not worried that she won't be able to find the way.

"What is your mother-in-law doing in such a hurry?"

"I went to buy some shrimps. The doctor said I should take more calcium and drink some shrimp soup."

When Grandma Sheng heard this, she couldn't help but sigh that Mother Gu took such good care of her granddaughter.

Whether it’s because Sheng Wanyan is a good daughter-in-law or because of the child in Sheng Wanyan’s belly.

Mrs. Gu is able to take such good care of her granddaughter, and as a grandmother, I am naturally grateful.

"Your mother-in-law is a good person. You should be more filial to her."

"Granny, I know."

Sheng Wanyan knew that although Gu's mother was easily soft-hearted towards the fourth room, she was not harsh towards herself.

It would be better to say that Mother Gu was soft-hearted towards the fourth room than to say that she was soft-hearted towards Gu Tinghao.

After all, the youngest son and eldest grandson are the lifeblood of the family.

As long as Mother Gu doesn't harm her family's interests because of the Fourth House and is good to her own children, that's enough.

But now, Mother Gu is not only good to her children, but also takes good care of herself.

As a daughter-in-law, I will definitely repay him well in the future.

Not to mention this era, even mothers-in-law in later generations may not be as good as Gu's mother in law in taking care of their daughters-in-law.

As long as Mother Gu loves her own children, it doesn't matter if she favors the fourth child.

Now that the family has separated, Gu Tingxiao's career has no impact as his father is in the lead.

But being partial to one's own children is different.

"By the way, your sister-in-law asked me to bring this meat to nourish your body."

Sheng Wanyan accepted it without any refusals. She knew that this was because Pan Yue always remembered her help when she was pregnant.

"Grandma, thank my sister-in-law for me."

Grandma Sheng nodded. Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng sat for a long time, and only went back when they saw that she wanted to rest.

After the others left, Sheng Wanyan had lunch. Gu's mother had prepared lean meat porridge in the morning, and there was still a lot left.

Sheng Wanyan heated it up and fried 5 eggs, leaving half of them for Gu's mother.

As soon as Gu's mother came back, she hurriedly rode her bike to the supply and marketing cooperative and even forgot to eat lunch.

Sheng Wanyan added porridge to the hot water and ate a little, then took out some fruit from the space to eat.

Fruits like strawberries were not common in those days, and I didn’t dare give them to Gu’s mother to eat.

I can only prepare some ordinary fruits, and Mother Gu won’t suspect anything if I eat them.

Gu's mother came back in the afternoon, and only when she came back did she remember that she had not had lunch.

She also forgot that she had to cook for Sheng Wanyan, and hurried into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

When I saw the fried eggs and porridge made by Sheng Wanyan warming on the kitchen stove, I knew that Sheng Wanyan had solved it herself.

After eating some, Gu's mother began to process the shrimps she had bought, separating the shrimp skin from the shrimp meat.

The shrimp meat is used for steaming, and the shrimp skin is used to make soup with tofu.

This time, in addition to buying shrimps, Gu's mother also bought a lot of vegetables, tofu and meat.

She spent all her own money. After all, the family had not yet been divided, and the other two daughters-in-law used the family's money to get pregnant.

There is no reason to favor one over the other when it comes to Sheng Wanyan.

Sheng Wanyan was resting in the room, and Mother Gu did not disturb her and prepared dinner.

According to the calculation, the third brother should be back in half a month. I don’t know how the mission is going.

Is it safe?

Gu's mother's thoughts were all on Gu Tingxiao. It is said that a mother worries about her son even when he is far away.

This is not false.

Sheng Wanyan woke up at around four o'clock. Knowing that Gu's mother had returned, she went to sit under the pavilion and translate.

Seeing that the weather was good and the sun was out, Gu's mother washed and put away the sweaters and trousers she had knitted for her children.

Maodou was playing with the small ball woven out of bamboo that Grandpa Sheng had made for it and was having fun in the yard.

Sheng Wanyan felt happy when she saw it running around excitedly.
