"What can happen to me?" Shen Li smiled indifferently, "She just said a few unpleasant words, it doesn't hurt me, I won't be unhappy because of unpleasant words said by someone who doesn't care about me."
"Lili, I'm sorry, it's all my fault... I didn't expect her to come to me and say so many nasty things..." Lin Xuanxuan looked at Shen Li guiltily.
"It's not a big deal. I won't take it to heart." Shen Li said, holding Lin Xuanxuan's hand, "Don't think too much."
"Uh-huh."
It was getting late, and it was time for Lin Xuanxuan to go home.
During this period, Shen Li had nothing to do, so she made preserved fruits at home.
The small yard is relatively spacious and has enough space for drying preserved fruits.
Shen Li made some peach preserves and invited her sisters-in-law to taste them.
“This tastes so good!”
"Yes! It's sour and sweet. I couldn't help drooling after eating it!"
"Sister Li, you have such a skillful hand!"
"Who says it's not true! Sister Li, if you open a preserved fruit factory with your skills, you will definitely make a lot of money!"
"But we don't have enough manpower on our island. We will need to recruit some customers from outside."
Everyone looked at Shen Li with admiration.
"I haven't made other flavors yet. I plan to make some candied fruit, black plum, hawthorn, and almond flavors. When they are ready, I will let everyone taste them. If they taste good, I will consider opening a candied fruit factory." Shen Li said.
Everyone agreed.
As Shen Li entered her sixth month of pregnancy, her belly began to grow bigger.
In the first five months, she was as naked as a girl. If someone who didn't know her just looked at her body shape, you wouldn't be able to tell that she was pregnant.
In the sixth month, Shen Li's belly was obviously pregnant.
Shen Li sat on the bed with her slender white arms resting on the edge of the bed, while Lu Jingchuan sat opposite Shen Li, rubbing olive oil in his palms and gently applying it on Shen Li's abdomen.
놛I saw on social media that there are certain techniques for rubbing a woman’s belly when she is pregnant.
If the operation is not done properly, the fetal umbilical cord may wrap around the neck.
Therefore, Lu Jingchuan didn't dare to use any force. He rubbed it lightly with his palm and didn't dare to pat it. He just melted the olive oil and gently covered it.
Shen Li found the man's cautious and awkward movements a little funny.
How come it's more stressful than going to the battlefield?
After more than half an hour, Lu Jingchuan finally finished applying the olive oil.
놛 breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wife, do you feel uncomfortable recently?" Lu Jingchuan said.
Shen Li shook her head, "I feel quite comfortable."
"The baby is really well behaved," she said, placing her soft, white palms on her belly. "I didn't have morning sickness or any pregnancy reactions when I was pregnant with you. You really know how to love your mother."
"I heard that some children come to repay their gratitude. This is our angel baby who repays gratitude." Lu Jingchuan leaned forward slightly and put his ear to Shen Li's bulging belly. "Baby, can you hear me talking?"
"My name is Lu Jingchuan, and I'm your father."
Lu Jingchuan held his breath and listened attentively while lying on Shen Li's lower abdomen for a while. Of course, his ear was only lightly pressed against it, and he did not dare to really touch Shen Li, let alone press on Shen Li's abdomen. After listening for a long time, there was no movement.
"Baby, when you grow up, please respond to your daddy, okay?"
The man's low, mellow, sexy voice was unspeakably gentle.
Shen Li curled her lips and smiled softly.
"Jingchuan, do you hope the baby in your belly is a boy or a girl?" Shen Li said.
"I hope it's a girl. I hope the child can be as beautiful and gentle as you." Lu Jingchuan stood up, his dark and deep eyes looking at Shen Li tenderly.
Those gentle eyes seemed to contain a vast ocean that could almost drown people.
I don't want my wife to give birth to a boy. Even though it's my own child, I feel uncomfortable when I think that this little brat will steal my wife's love.
If it's a daughter, it's better.
Shen Li chuckled, "Boys are good too."
"Well, as long as they are born by you, I like them all." Lu Jingchuan held Shen Li's hand and interlocked their fingers tightly.
…
After the sixth month of pregnancy, Shen Li's body will undergo some other changes.
For example, her appetite has become much better than before.
Before, Shen Li didn't care about her appetite, but in the sixth month, Shen Li always liked to eat snacks.
She dried a basket of preserved fruits, including sweet ones such as peaches, black plums, and prunes, and sour ones such as hawthorns and sour apricots... Shen Li sat in front of the TV every day, picking up a preserved fruit with her slender and beautiful white fingers and putting it into her mouth.
Sometimes, when she was watching a TV series, she would eat up a whole bowl of preserved fruits.
Today's TV screens are very small and not big enough. Shen Li prefers to hide in the space, turn on the air conditioner and watch Korean dramas on the big screen. She then uses the money in the space mall to buy some mousse cakes, black forest cakes and other small desserts.
When she is addicted to worms, she can't help wanting to eat some spicy lobster and spicy strips.
She knew that she needed to avoid certain foods during pregnancy, but if she didn't eat, the gluttonous worms in her stomach would always bother her.
Shen Li's self-control is not very strong. She can't be the kind of person who abstains from food throughout the entire pregnancy or even the entire breastfeeding period for the sake of her child. Whenever she feels hungry, she hides in her space and eats some spicy strips to satisfy her hunger.
But this time, he was discovered by Lu Jingchuan.
"Lili," Lu Jingchuan walked in.
Seeing 놛 coming, Shen Li quickly hid the spicy strips behind herself, "Hey, why are you here?"
"I saw it all." Lu Jingchuan was helpless, his handsome face darkened, he walked towards Shen Li and took the spicy strips from behind Shen Li.
Shen Li's face was slightly embarrassed, "I couldn't help it this time, it was too greedy, I won't eat it next time."
"You have said this five times," said Lu Jingchuan.
Shen Li, "Emm..."
"I'm not stopping you from eating it for the sake of the baby in your belly. You're pregnant and your hormone levels are unstable. Eating spicy food can easily cause endocrine problems." Lu Jingchuan said, "After you give birth, when your hormones are more stable, you can eat it. But don't eat too much, only one pack a month at most. This thing is not good for your body."
"Okay, I understand." Shen Li smiled slightly with her lips curved.
Lu Jingchuan raised his hand and rubbed Shen Li's soft hair.
My wife is less than two years old this year.
She is still a little girl after all.
…
The second more special reaction of Shen Li after she became pregnant was that she originally did not have much feeling about the matters between men and women, as Lu Jingchuan had always taken the initiative before. After she became pregnant, perhaps because of the effect of hormones, she actually shamelessly thought about such things.
