"Xiaobei, Xiaowang is here too!"
"Godmother, you are here."
"Teacher Lin."
Lin Aili came over and greeted Shen Xiaobei and Wang Yishan.
"Xiaobei, I heard from your godfather last night that Xichuan has to go out on a mission today and won't be back for a while, so I discussed with your godfather and asked him to take you to live with us. This way it will be more convenient to take care of you."
"Godmother, how can I live with you? No need. I can take care of myself here."
"Silly child, your belly is so big. What if you suddenly give birth one day and Xichuan is not by your side? That would be so dangerous! Just listen to godmother and move in with us today. That way godmother will feel more at ease."
Shen Xiaobei didn’t expect that Duan Xichuan was not here, and so many people rushed to say that they would take care of her. Her heart suddenly felt warm and she was very moved.
However, she was not willing to move in with Lin Aili.
Living with her and Master Guan would not only trouble them, but it would also be inconvenient for her to eat or use the things in the space.
As the saying goes, there is no place like home, no place gold or silver.
Although Duan Xichuan was no longer here, she still felt more comfortable living alone in their own room.
So, he politely declined Lin Aili and said, "Godmother, it's really okay for me to live here alone. If anything happens, Shanshan is next door to me. If I call her, she will hear me and come over, right, Shanshan?"
"Yes, Teacher Lin, I told Xiaobei to call me anytime if she needs anything."
"Also, godmother, I'm actually a bit attached to my bed. Haha, I'm afraid it will take me a long time to get used to sleeping in a different bed, so I'd better not move to your place."
"Thank you, godmother, for worrying so much about Xiaobei. I will always remember your kindness towards Xiaobei!"
"Well, okay, since you don't want to move so much, then Godmother won't force you. Then Godmother will come to see you every day from now on. If you are about to give birth, Godmother will know in time."
"Xiao Wang, Xichuan is away for a while, so I'm sorry to bother you as my neighbor. If Xiaobei is about to give birth, you must remember to come and notify me immediately!"
"Okay, don't worry, Teacher Lin. I will take good care of Xiaobei. If she's about to give birth, I'll come over and tell you right away."
"Well, that's good, then I can feel more at ease!"
Lin Aili gave Shen Xiaobei some more instructions, asking her to take care of herself, and said that even though Duan Xichuan was not around, she should keep a good mood every day and not think too much.
Then he gave Wang Yisan some more instructions before leaving with peace of mind.
"You're so lucky, you have such a good godmother!"
"Well, Teacher Lin is indeed a good godmother."
Standing at the door and watching Lin Aili's back, Shen Xiaobei had a calm and gentle smile on her face. She was a little reminded of her biological mother who passed away early.
She thought, if she were still alive, she would probably feel comforted to know that her daughter, who was about to become a mother, could receive such care from a mother who had no blood relationship with her, right?
Although her husband is not around and she is about to give birth, Shen Xiaobei's life is indeed not bad, and she is treated like an old lady.
Wang Yisan and her son prepared three meals a day for her and placed them on the dining table in her room. She also washed the lunch boxes after eating.
She also helped her fetch boiled water and water for washing her face from the bathroom.
As for the clothes, except for the underwear, Wang Yishan also said that she would help her wash them, but Shen Xiaobei didn't let her.
It was already late spring and the clothes she was wearing were not thick. She said she could stand in front of the sink and wash, so Wang Yisan did not force her.
Washing her hair, sitting down to wash it once a week, Wang Yisan did what she said, and helped her wash it patiently while making fun of her.
After dinner, as long as it didn't rain, they would go for a walk in the courtyard as usual. Wang Yisan would always bring Chen Xiong with her for a walk, in case she went into labor while walking, she would be there to help in time.
Lin Aili would come over every day to sit and chat with Shen Xiaobei, and later she took away her laundry job and stopped her from doing it.
Shen Xiaobei had no choice but to wash her underwear every time after taking a shower, and let Lin Aili wash the rest of the clothes for her.
Anyway, she has already owed favors to Wang Yishan and Lin Aili, and doesn't care about owing more.
It is said that only if there is fate will we owe each other, and only if there is a debt will we meet.
As long as she hadn't repaid the favors she owed them, she knew that she and the two of them would always be destined to meet each other, which was fine.
This kind of waiting time for delivery, with someone to serve and accompany her every day, lasted until the afternoon of May 20th.
Duan Xichuan hasn't returned yet and there is no news.
Although Shen Xiaobei missed him every day and wanted to receive a letter or call from him, she knew that no news was the best news.
This means that he was safe while carrying out his mission outside without any accidents.
That afternoon, while she was thinking about Duan Xichuan, she was leaning on the bed and flipping through the newspaper casually. Suddenly, she felt a contraction. The pain came every few minutes, and then she felt uncomfortable all over.
She quickly put down the newspaper, called out "Shanshan", and then immediately knocked on the wall a few times.
Wang Yishan was taking a nap in her room. When she heard the noise coming from her side, she immediately jumped up, ran over in her slippers and asked, "What's wrong, Xiaobei? Are you going to give birth?"
"Well, Shanshan, my stomach is starting to hurt more and more. I think I'm about to give birth..."
"Xiaobei, don't worry. I'll call the army right away and have Lao Chen drive back immediately to take you to the hospital."
