Chapter 784: Pregnancy Protection

Lu Miao said "Oh" and continued eating.

Speaking of which, people's physiques are really different.

Think about when she was pregnant with those two babies, she was tormented to death every time.

Liu Wenpei is also brave.

I just ate rat poison, not afraid of anything happening. The most important thing is that the child is fine...

This is a bit unpleasant to say, as if you are hoping for bad things to happen to others.

Lu Miao didn't say anything, but just sighed in his heart.

But then again, the Ling family's current dilemma probably lies with this child.

Every family has its own genealogy and every family has its own scriptures.

They are all outsiders, so they should just take care of themselves and wait and see what happens...!

…

After helping the children take a bath at night, Lu Miao returned to the room and discussed with Fu Jingyou:

"The store has been finalized. The next step is to decorate it, and we also need to prepare the things on hand."

"Isn't the courtyard I bought for Shi An rented out? Tomorrow is rent collection day. Ask the family who rents it and see if they're still renting it."

"If I don't rent it, I'll just use it and give Shi An the full price every month, saving me from having to rent from someone else."

Fu Jingyou asked in confusion, "Isn't it enough to have a store? Why do we need to rent a separate place?"

"Don't hiring people to do the work require space? Wangfujing is my own stall. Chen Xiangdong and his team still have to keep supplying me with the goods. I also have to attend school. How can Meizi handle it all by herself?"

"OK."

Fu Jingyou touched the back of his head and nodded in understanding:

"I'll keep that in mind."

Fu then continued, "Do you have any ideas for the decoration in Wangfujing? I'll ask Chen Xiangdong and the others to send people over to help."

"I have a vague idea, and I'm still considering the details... But then again, can I ask Chen Xiangdong and the others for help?"

“It wasn’t possible before, but it is possible now.”

In the past, people were worried that if they got too close, someone would come and check on them.

Now that everything is relaxed, what are you afraid of?

He said it with such confidence that Lu Miao felt relieved:

"Okay, I'll think about it over the next two days and tell you when I'm sure."

It’s really good.

No matter what you do, you can always find someone to help you.

Lu Miao thought happily.

Her thoughts were all written on her face. Fu Jingyou saw it, shook his head, smiled dotingly and said "hmm".

Life in the courtyard is going in a prosperous direction, but let’s talk about the other side.

In the northern suburbs of Beijing, the Ling family.

Liu Wenpei started making trouble half a month ago.

Or perhaps, she was always making trouble and never stopped.

He had previously made a fuss about not allowing Ling Yuan to go abroad.

Later, there was a big fuss just because they suspected that there was something going on between Lu Miao and Ling Yuan.

Especially Liu Wenpei couldn't stand Ling Yuan's neglect. She tried to get closer to him several times at night, but was rejected every time. She then became very angry.

Ling Yuan had never thought that she had such an unreasonable face, and he had even less to say to her.

Ling Yuan was so exhausted from all the hustle and bustle that he simply slept with his father at night.

Considering that Liu Wenpei was still pregnant, Ling's mother asked Liu Wenpei to accompany her and take care of her at night.

The Ling family kept their mouth shut about the research work in the greenhouse and didn’t reveal where it was located.

When it was time to start work, Ling Yuan packed up his belongings and went to work. Before being assigned a dormitory, he had to make do with living in a greenhouse.

Liu Wenpei couldn't find Ling Yuan and made a fuss at home several times.

It seems that since he couldn't find out the location, he gave up.

In terms of marriage, Liu Wenpei was somewhat aware of the sense of crisis.

Since Ling Yuan was away from home, she was worried.

Maybe her mother was right...

As long as she gives birth to a boy, the focus of the Ling family will still fall back on her.

Liu Wenpei immediately calmed down, stopped making noises, and started helping with housework.

The only obsession was that I would occasionally run to the neighboring village and the neighboring village with my increasingly heavy belly.

Liu Wenpei asked around for secret recipes for having a baby, and after a few attempts, she actually took a lot of Chinese medicine home to boil and drink.

Ling's mother told her not to take medicine indiscriminately, and if she felt uncomfortable or had any problems, her family should take her to a regular hospital.

Liu Wenpei refused and kept it a secret, insisting that it was a pregnancy-maintaining medicine and would be good for the fetus.

Ling's mother was full of worries, but she couldn't persuade her at all.

To go deeper, Liu Wenpei was in a life-or-death situation.

Ling's mother was helpless and didn't bother her. She could only keep an eye on her when she was free, and only felt relieved when she saw that she was fine.

…

Let’s talk about Lu Miao.

Regarding the store decoration, Lu Miao followed his own preferences and considered a more modern direction, and clearly requested puttying and whitewashing.

All kinds of display counters should also be made of transparent glass.

We firmly refuse the green glass commonly found on the market.

The door too.

At present, rolling doors are relatively safe, but they are not cheap.

If she wants to pretend, Fu Jingyou will definitely equip her.

After deciding on the rolling door, she requested that two glass doors be installed inside the rolling door.

One for closing the store.

One is used during normal business hours.

To prevent leaves, sand and other things from flying into the house during windy weather.

She has a lot of ideas, and some of her ideas and requests may seem strange at the moment.

As she said in the plan, the interior ceiling will be equipped with lights from one corner to the other.

Chen Xiangdong and others simply couldn't understand it.

Lu Miao always acted like she had the final say every day, so Chen Xiangdong and the others didn't dare to talk to her in person.

I can only communicate with Fu Jingyou privately to confirm it.

Fu Jingyou had heard some of this from Lu Miao at home, so he explained to them that so many lights were arranged for the purpose of light and shadow and lighting effects.

Chen Xiangdong and the others acted as if they didn't understand, so Fu Jingyou didn't force an explanation.

Just give them the money and ask them to do as Lu Miao asks.

Since the person who gave the money said so, what else can Chen Xiangdong say?

Just follow the requirements.

After all, having been a trader for so many years, Chen Xiangdong knows a lot of people and can meet most of Lu Miao's requests.

They took turns to help and didn't ask for money.

Lu Miao thought that they had a good relationship with Fu Jingyou, so he didn't mention it, but he didn't treat them badly either.

Every time he went to work, he would either take him to a state-owned restaurant on the spot or invite him to his home for a good meal.

After the adjustment period, Lu Miao basically handed over the store decoration work to Chen Xiangdong.

She had to balance going to school and teaching, so she could only take time out occasionally to check on the work and make some detailed adjustments.

After going there a few times, Lu Miao discovered something new.

Mei Zi also often goes to Wangfujing to help with cleaning.

She had run into him several times.

Originally I just thought Mei Zi was thoughtful.

Later, when he saw Mei Zi appeared with Chen Xiangdong most of the time, Lu Miao vaguely realized something.

There is something fishy about these two people!

Mei Zi is young, and her only sister-in-law remarried and is not around now.

Lu Miao couldn't help but feel worried, and asked Mei Zi about the situation privately.
