Chapter 131
"Yes! She loves to work even with a big belly. She even says and says that the other daughters-in-law in our yard are not as hardworking as her. She is asking for it."
"The most pitiful one is the baby girl she just gave birth to. The child is so young, and her mother is gone, and her father has already started looking for a new wife."
"What did you say? Liang Nan is already looking for a new wife?"
The aunt who was speaking glanced at the astonished crowd and said, "Yes, I saw Aunt Xie looking for a matchmaker to arrange a marriage for Liang Nan. Aunt Xie saw me and even cried to me hypocritically, saying that she was very sad that Cui Yongfang was gone. Cui Yongfang was a good daughter-in-law, but she couldn't do anything because she still had two children at home. The children couldn't be without a mother."
"This... Cui Yongfang just left not long ago. There's no need to be so anxious to find a new wife!"
"Humph, what do you know? Even though Aunt Liang and Cui Yongfang seemed to have a good relationship, Aunt Liang actually looked down on Cui Yongfang. She thought Cui Yongfang was good because she was hardworking, willing to listen to her and never contradicted her, not because she liked her that much. Cui Yongfang's death was like the death of a stranger to her. Finding a new daughter-in-law for her son must be more important!"
The crowd of onlookers fell silent, not knowing whether they felt pity for Cui Yongfang or whether they thought of themselves through Cui Yongfang and felt pity for themselves.
The second thing that happened in this slum might not be of much concern to other families, but the Shen family cared the most.
The cause of the incident was that Ye Fuyue had been feeling listless and lazy during this period, and her appetite was not very good. She often couldn't eat and would occasionally dry heave.
Ye Fuyue thought that this was because of the hot weather and poor appetite.
But Chen Guifeng, who had experienced it before, immediately saw the clues. She asked Ye Fuyue, "How long has it been since you had your period?"
Ye Fuyue suddenly remembered that her period had not come for some time.
Her period is never regular, so she doesn't mind it too much when it misses sometimes.
Chen Guifeng looked at Ye Fuyue's expression and wondered what she didn't understand. She asked, "You might be pregnant. Do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup?"
Shen Yao, who had been sitting silently on the side, looked at Ye Fuyue with excitement, anticipation and worry when he heard his mother say this.
Ye Fuyue was bewildered: "Then let's go to the hospital for a check-up."
So Shen Yao took Ye Fuyue and Chen Guifeng to the hospital.
The test results came out quickly, and Ye Fuyue was already more than two months pregnant.
Looking at the checklist, Shen Yao and Chen Guifeng were much more excited than Ye Fuyue, the person involved.
"I'm really pregnant..." Chen Guifeng murmured, "This is such a great joy!"
Shen Yaoze's excited eyes never left the checklist for a moment, and he was speechless for a long time.
"I need to go find Yu Tong and ask her to help me keep a few more chickens. You're pregnant now, so you need to get enough nutrition. I don't want to make things difficult for both you and the child." Chen Guifeng counted on her fingers, saying, "I also need to buy more eggs and meat. Meat doesn't keep well in this weather, so it's better to buy fresh meat when you need it. Pregnant women should eat less bacon."
Chen Guifeng grumbled to herself, and after she finished, she said to Shen Yao: "You take Fu Yue back, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative."
After saying that, Chen Guifeng left in a hurry.
Ye Fuyue looked at her hurried back and smiled.
Looking away, Ye Fuyue smiled again when she saw Shen Yao still staring at the checklist, as if he wanted to see a hole in it.
She leaned over and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the checklist? How long have you been looking at it?"
Shen Yao finally came back to his senses, his dark eyes gleaming with excitement: "I'm going to be a father."
"Yes, you are going to be a father, and I am going to be a mother." Ye Fuyue said with a smile.
"I'm going to be a father." Shen Yao repeated excitedly.
Ye Fuyue smiled and asked, "Do you hope it's a boy or a girl?"
"I hope so." Chen Yao said solemnly, "If it's a girl, like you, sweet, soft and cute, how wonderful it would be. If it's a boy, although he's a little naughty, he can protect you. So, whether it's a boy or a girl, I like them both."
After leaving the hospital, Shen Yao drove Ye Fuyue back to the compound.
Shen Yao rode his bike very slowly, and whenever he encountered any potholes, he rode over them at a very slow speed.
Ye Fuyue was puzzled: "Why are you riding so slowly? Is your bike broken?"
"You are pregnant now, you can't be shaken. What if the baby in your belly is hurt?" Shen Yao said very seriously.
Ye Fuyue: "...While that's true, you don't have to ride so slowly. Your speed is almost the same as walking."
"Then should I ride a little faster?"
"Well, ride faster, it's too slow." Ye Fuyue was extremely disgusted.
Shen Yao then rode a little faster, at least faster than a pedestrian walking.
Although Ye Fuyue still felt it was slow, she didn't say anything and let Shen Yao go.
When they returned to the slum, they met Aunt Xu.
Ye Fuyue had a good impression of Aunt Xu. Compared to people like Aunt Xie, Aunt Liang, and Zhou Jinmei, Aunt Xu was much more reasonable and sensible, although she was also quite gossipy...
"Fu Yue, you just came back from going out with Shen Yao!" Aunt Xu greeted Ye Fu Yue with a smile.
"Yes, auntie." Ye Fuyue replied with the same smile.
"Why don't you look well? Are you feeling unwell?" Aunt Xu stared at Ye Fuyue's face and said.
Ye Fuyue touched her face in confusion: Doesn’t she look well?
When Shen Yao heard Aunt Xu say this, he stopped his bicycle and observed Ye Fuyue's expression.
It was just like what Aunt Xu said, Ye Fuyue's face turned a little pale.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Shen Yao asked nervously.
"I'm fine. I just felt a little nauseous and dry-heaved a few times. You heard it. Maybe that's why you look so pale." Ye Fuyue said.
"Let's go back and drink some hot water and take it easy." Shen Yao said as he got on his bike.
Aunt Xu asked curiously, "What's wrong with Fuyue? Why is she nauseous and retching?"
"She's pregnant, more than two months." After answering Aunt Xu's question, Shen Yao rode away on his bicycle.
Aunt Xu stood there in a daze, and it took her a while to come back to her senses.
The Shen family's wife is pregnant? Oh, this is a big deal!
So, within just a few hours, many people in the compound knew that the Shen family's daughter-in-law was pregnant.
Zhou Jinmei also heard about this.
When Zhou Jinmei first heard about it, she couldn't believe it. Ye Fuyun wasn't pregnant, so how could Ye Fuyue be pregnant?!
She pulled Aunt Xu aside and asked, "Is Ye Fuyue really pregnant? Could it be that you made a mistake?"
