"What did you say? Your mom's pregnant?!"
Grandma Sheng was stunned into silence by Sheng Yueqing's words.
It took me a while to realize what was happening.
"No way? She had a baby at such an old age?"
They're all quite old.
Pregnant?
Sheng Yueqing chuckled, "Don't say that. My mom has been in good health these past two years, and she and my dad are very loving. They have a child because the two of them have such a good relationship."
Grandma Sheng said disdainfully, "I think they're just too lovey-dovey."
In the past, when Huang Nianyan was around, Mr. and Mrs. Sheng often quarreled.
The couple separated later, but their relationship improved.
Later, the couple came to Shanghai together and spent every day together, their relationship resembling that of their first love, incredibly sweet.
After arriving in Shanghai, Mr. Sheng stopped working and spent his days shopping with Mrs. Sheng.
The couple also cook together for their children.
Sometimes we would go to the factory together to help out, and we spent every day together. We had an incredibly good relationship.
I don't know if it's because I'm in a good mood or because I'm eating well, but I'm already over forty and I'm pregnant again.
Mrs. Sheng herself was also embarrassed, "I thought my period was almost over, but it hasn't come for the past two months, so I thought it had stopped altogether."
"Who knew that I felt particularly nauseous and weak all over this morning? Your father insisted on going to the hospital to see a doctor, but the doctor immediately told me to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department."
She was so embarrassed at the time.
At her age, she was still called to the obstetrics and gynecology department.
However, after a check-up, it turned out she was indeed pregnant.
It's been almost three months.
Mr. Sheng was overjoyed, but he was also worried about whether his wife would have any problems having a child in middle age.
The doctor examined Mrs. Sheng and said that she was in good health and had been working, so she should be able to give birth smoothly.
As long as the child isn't too big or too small, there shouldn't be any major problems.
In those days, it was not uncommon for old oysters to give birth to pearls, especially in the countryside, where it was common for women in their forties and fifties to have children.
So the doctor didn't think there was a problem and told Mrs. Sheng to give birth without worry.
Sheng Yueqing was initially surprised to hear this, and then she became worried about her mother's health.
"Mom, you need to take good care of yourself this time. Don't eat too much. A baby weighing five or six pounds is easy to deliver. A baby that's too big won't do."
Mrs. Sheng remembers it all.
"Don't worry, your father found me a very famous doctor. He told me the same thing as you: eat small, frequent meals and don't take too many supplements."
"They also told me to eat more vegetables, fruits, and lean meat."
She was shocked at first; she was forty years old and pregnant.
But then I think about it, and there are plenty of people around me who have children at that age, so it's not that strange.
Plus, she really likes children, and her daughter has been found, so having another child now wouldn't be a burden.
If her daughter hadn't come back, she wouldn't have wanted to have another child, fearing that the second child would steal her attention and make her forget her firstborn.
Now that her daughter is with her, she has asked her daughter what she thinks.
Sheng Yueqing only cared about her health; as for her younger siblings, she naturally liked them too.
She will raise her younger siblings as long as her biological mother doesn't suffer.
After all, they are her family.
Moreover, she has the ability to support herself.
Mrs. Sheng laughed, "Silly child, you are still a child yourself. Your younger siblings don't need you to support them; your mother will support them herself."
She has the ability to give birth and the ability to raise the child; she won't trouble the child at all.
She's not the kind of person who would give birth to a second child and then leave it to the firstborn.
Sheng Yueqing hugged her, looking at her with dependence, "Then you can't stop loving me once you have a younger brother or sister."
She still longs for her mother, even though she's twenty years old, she's still afraid her mother doesn't love her.
Mrs. Sheng looked distressed and said, "What are you saying? I love you the most, then my younger brother and sister. They all come after you."
"But I can't tell my younger siblings this, I'm afraid they'll be jealous."
Sheng Yueqing smiled, "Alright then, you have to love me the most."
Mrs. Sheng looked at her with maternal love, "Yes, I love you the most."
Mr. Sheng also expressed his opinion, saying, "Dad loves you the most too."
After her initial surprise, Old Mrs. Sheng was so happy that she stomped her feet repeatedly.
He said, "It's truly a blessing from the Bodhisattva."
Her son has finally had another baby.
Thank God.
Seeing the joyful look on her face as if she were about to have a grandson, Sheng Yueqing said sourly for the first time, "Grandma, now that you have a grandson, you think your granddaughter is in the way, right?"
"Maybe I shouldn't come back anymore. Let my younger brother have this huge fortune. Anyway, I'm just a girl, nobody likes me, sigh~"
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Sheng quickly spat it out.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Grandma loves her grandson, but she also loves you."
“Your family property is yours, and your brother should earn his own. Grandma is not a biased person.”
Although she wanted her son to have a few more children, her granddaughter was also her precious treasure.
She's not one of those grandmothers who favor sons over daughters and don't treat their granddaughters like human beings.
Her granddaughter is naturally her darling.
"Don't worry, even if your mom gives birth to a younger brother, Grandma will still love you the most."
Sheng Yueqing said coquettishly, "Then it's a deal, I'll still be the one who gets the most pampering in the family."
"If I find out you're being biased, I'm not going to be friends with you anymore."
Grandma Sheng laughed, "Little jealous person."
“I’m really scared of you. Your grandfather and I both promise that you’re the little princess in the family, the eldest child, and your younger brother can only be your little brother.”
Sheng Yueqing smiled; she certainly wouldn't be so petty.
It's natural to be happy to have another relative.
However, because of this incident, Old Madam Sheng's attitude towards Mrs. Sheng underwent a complete 180-degree change.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had never gotten along.
Even if they don't argue on the surface, they still look down on each other.
