Chapter 265 Pregnancy reaction, three-month pregnant baby
The landlord felt sorry for Shen Zhichu for finding such a job for her, as it was so hard for her to be in the public eye.
The landlord mentioned it to her and didn't think she would agree, but unexpectedly, Shen Zhichu nodded immediately.
"I'll go."
"But this job..." Look at such a beautiful lady sweeping the floor in a red vest, it seems so incongruous.
"It's important to know yourself. I'm already lucky to have a job here. Besides, I don't know what else I can do with my hands."
It's not that no one has introduced her to easy jobs, such as helping out as a bookkeeper in a restaurant, but if she used her hands to carry plates, she might ruin the restaurant. Bookkeeping requires collecting money, using a pen, and using a computer, and her hands are not flexible enough.
With both hands disabled, it was inconvenient for Shen Zhichu to do anything, so he just accepted his fate.
The landlord knew the condition of her hands. Her hands shook even when she was eating, and it was a problem for her to live her daily life, let alone work properly.
Shen Zhichu had heard enough of the comforting words, so the landlord told her directly about the salary issue, "The salary is not high, 2,000 a month, and it can be paid daily, but the daily payment is 65 a day. In addition, the person in charge said that you can sign a contract, and then you will get a raise after a long time."
If he signed a contract to work, he would have to work for at least a year, and Shen Zhichu didn't have that much time.
"If I didn't follow the contract, I wouldn't be able to do this for so long. I've only been working for two months so far."
"Two months?" The landlord didn't understand why she had set such a rigid timeline, so he curiously asked, "Is there something that's delaying you?"
"I am pregnant."
"What!" The homeowner looked Shen Zhichu up and down, then shook his head in disbelief. It really didn't look like she was pregnant at all.
"How many months?"
"Three months." Shen Zhichu replied.
"Then why are you still working?" She has two children of her own. She recalls that when she was pregnant, she did nothing at home as soon as she found out. Everyone in the family took care of her and didn't even go into the kitchen.
Look at the woman in front of you. She traveled all the way to this place while pregnant and even applied for a job as a cleaner sweeping the floor.
"Are you having any trouble?"
"I still have some money in my savings, but I can't just live off it. I want to stay here because I'll have a lot of expenses after I have a baby."
That's true, but the landlord no longer approves of her going to work.
"Are you experiencing pregnancy symptoms now?"
"Yes, but I'm fine. I can eat and sleep..."
"That's because you're a little pregnant," the landlord interrupted her. "You're three months pregnant now, so pregnancy symptoms will gradually set in. When I was pregnant with my first two children, I vomited all day long. I finally managed to get through it, but my belly got bigger again. I could only sleep on my side. Lying upright made it hard to breathe, and with over ten pounds, I felt like a rock, and my legs were swollen."
Shen Zhichu felt a little numb when he heard this.
"Anyway, you should think about it carefully. Cleaning up garbage is not an easy job. Cleaning up garbage smells bad. You're already vomiting due to pregnancy reactions. If you smell something bad, your vomiting will be even worse. You won't be able to eat and you'll still have to work. You're already so weak. If you continue to work hard, the fetus will be unstable."
When Shen Zhichu heard that it would affect his baby, his face turned pale with fear.
Shen Zhichu said, "I'll think about it carefully. Don't ask anyone to keep that job for me. It would be bad if other people came to apply and didn't get the job because of me."
The landlord knew she had figured it out, and he breathed a sigh of relief. "I'll keep an eye out for work for you. There are some purchasing agents now. Just type and send a voice message to introduce them. The couple who rented my room before are in this business. I have their contact information here, and I can help you consult them. But for now, don't think about it. Take care of your pregnancy first. Being a purchasing agent is very stressful."
"Can I do purchasing on behalf of others here?"
Seeing her surprised look, the landlord smiled and said, "Of course, although our place is small, we have a special express delivery station, so sending and receiving things is very convenient."
Shen Zhichu immediately had an idea. Being a purchasing agent requires eloquence and the income is very unstable, and there is also the risk of losing money. But if she does it well, it will be much easier than being a cleaner. She can consider it and have multiple options.
"Then I'll trouble you, Sister Fang, please help me consult a purchasing agent. I won't consider these things for now. I'll prepare them when I'm stable."
"Okay." The homeowner left with a smile.
Shen Zhichu walked her to the door, thinking about treating the landlord to a meal someday, after all, he had helped her so much.
Shen Zhichu went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup and ultrasound, and felt relieved after confirming that the baby was healthy.
Since she became pregnant, she has reduced the dosage of stomach medicine. She brought this medicine from J City. Seeing that it was about to run out, Shen Zhichu took the medicine to the hospital to buy more.
The doctor had never seen this kind of medicine before, and it was difficult to check the ingredients because there was no label. He went to all the pharmacies in the town but couldn't find this kind of medicine.
Shen Zhichu didn't think much about it, he just guessed that the medicine should be from abroad, and it was normal that it was not available in this town.
…………
When the fetus was over three months old, Shen Zhichu's life reaction became more severe as the landlord said. He started to vomit everything he ate, couldn't sleep well at night, and had palpitations.
I vomited out all the yogurt I had eaten at night, and there was blood in the milky white vomit.
Shen Zhichu put his hand on his abdomen: "Are you like your cheap dad, so picky that you don't want to eat anything."
He is so picky at such a young age, vomiting everything he eats. What will happen to him in the future?
Shen Zhichu's expenses have been quite high recently. She originally withdrew 200,000 yuan, but now she only has 140,000 yuan left. She keeps all her money in the house. She takes a look at it from time to time. As she sees the thickness of her banknotes gradually decreasing, she starts to panic.
Various examinations and childbirth require money. She is weak, so she will need to hire a confinement nanny to take care of her, which also costs money.
Shen Zhichu was counting the money in his hand. He knew that there would be a long period of time in the future with only expenses and no income, and the money would disappear quickly like running water.
Shen Zhichu took out the two pieces of jewelry she had taken with her from her backpack.
They were all made of gold, with jadeite embellishments on them. Shen Zhichu searched online and found that the original price was two million.
If she could sell it, one million would be great, and she took it out secretly so she couldn't sell it directly in the store.
Shen Zhichu bought two or three pounds of fruit at the fruit stall and took it up to the fifth floor to find the landlord.
The homeowner heard a knock on the door and opened it. He was delighted to see that it was Shen Zhichu, and then he saw the fruit in her hand.
Shen Zhichu was carrying some fruit: "Sister Fang, I'm bothering you again. You have a wide network of contacts and I want to ask you something."
The landlord evaded the fruit she brought in, saying, "Why did you bring fruit up here when you came? Take it back and eat it yourself. If you want to ask me anything, I'll tell you what I know. I'll help you within my ability."
