Chapter 201 Pregnancy
Su Lichuan named the child Su Jingxi.
As the mushroom business spread across the Northwest states, counties, and even towns, Su Hanchu asked Su Hanzhi to expand the business towards the Imperial City...
The mushroom spawn are produced in mushroom shops and then sold to people in various counties. The mushrooms are then collected and wholesaled to various vegetable shops.
As the mushroom market grew, fleets of cars followed, appearing in states, counties, and towns.
Vegetable oil also appeared in the eyes and even hands of local people along with the convoy.
Time flies and it is the winter solstice. The streets and alleys are filled with the aroma of people cooking dumplings. This year, many people made dumplings with mushroom and meat fillings. Every household hung red lanterns and posted couplets, adding some joy to the winter solstice.
Because the Jun family had a large population, Su Hanchu bought the yard next door at a high price and broke through the wall. Aunt Li now took Mo Yan to manage the people who came out of Guanping Village as the Mushroom Shop developed. Liu Shan was in charge of the fleet, and Su Hanzhi continued to be responsible for expanding the market outside. She is now a famous Mushroom Xishi.
It is natural for the Jun and Su families to celebrate such a festival together.
Chuntao brought a few maids and made a lot of dumplings.
Because Zhou Xuewei was still in confinement after giving birth, after the dumplings were cooked, Su Yuanzhe took two servings back to eat with her.
Su Hanchu lazily sat in a chair, watching the red lanterns in the yard and the busy maids and servants. She wrapped herself in a furry cloak. She didn't know what was going on, but lately she really didn't feel like moving at all. She even forgot to go to the Mushroom Shop. She left it to Aunt Li to take care of it, and Ping'er would occasionally go to check on her.
Jun Moye, who was originally drinking tea and chatting with Su Lichuan, saw her lazy look, stood up, walked to her side, and put his arm around her.
"Chu Chu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Hanchu shook his head.
"No, I just don't feel like moving."
At this time, Chuntao and others had already brought dumplings and meals to the table in the hall.
Wei Furong came out and called the couple.
"Mo Ye, Chu Chu, it's time to eat."
The maids and servants also set up several tables in the kitchen and yard.
Jun Moye helped her up.
"Come on, let's eat first. You've been so lazy lately. After dinner, let's find a doctor to see you."
Su Hanchu didn't even bother to say anything, she just followed him and stood up.
Sitting down at the table, Su Hanchu couldn't help but frowning for some reason as he looked at the dishes on the table.
Jun Moye picked up the chopsticks and picked up a dumpling for Su Hanchu.
"Come and try it, it's stuffed with mushrooms and fresh meat."
Then he politely greeted the people from the Su family.
"Father-in-law, father-in-law, eat the food first."
Su Hanchu picked up the chopsticks, picked up the dumpling and put it in his mouth. As soon as he bit into it, he felt a greasy smell coming towards him, filling his mouth.
“Hmm…”
As Su Hanchu covered her mouth uncomfortably and spit out the dumplings, Jun Moye stood up with a worried look on his face and hurriedly held her arm.
"Chu Chu, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
Then he quickly gave orders.
"Someone, go get the doctor."
"Ugh..." Su Hanchu felt like tears were falling from his eyes, and he wished he could vomit out all the bile.
Wei Furong, who had been observing her daughter's condition, had a hint of surprise in her eyes and leaned close to Su Hanchu's ear.
"Chu Chu, did you have your period this month?"
Su Hanchu only felt that the world was spinning at that moment. He couldn't even utter a word and felt weak all over.
Jun Moye supported her body, let her lean on his arms, and answered Wei Furong's question for her.
"Mother-in-law, Chuchu doesn't seem to be here."
Wei Furong spoke to Su Lichuan with a smile.
"Tachikawa, go back quickly and bring the pickled radish I made earlier to Chuchu."
Su Lichuan hasn't reacted yet.
"The child has already vomited so much, why is he still eating pickled radish? He should eat something delicious."
Wei Furong rolled her eyes at him after hearing this.
"Just go when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Xuewei used to love eating that."
Su Lichuan reacted as soon as he heard it and spoke quickly.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Wei Furong brought a glass of water.
"Chu Chu, rinse your mouth."
Su Hanchu let Jun Moye help him sit on the chair, and took the water to rinse his mouth.
Wei Furong saw that she was in better condition and spoke with a happy look on her face.
"Chu Chu, you are probably pregnant."
Su Hanchu spoke with a puzzled look on his face.
"What?"
Wei Furong reached out and took her hand.
"Silly child, you must be pregnant."
Liu Shan had hurriedly called a doctor.
"Sir, the doctor is here."
Then he called the doctor.
"Doctor, please take a look at our lady."
The doctor we invited was the familiar Dr. Li.
Doctor Li stepped forward to take Su Hanchu's pulse and quickly bowed with a smile.
"Congratulations, Master Jun, Madam Jun, your family is about to have a new baby."
Su Hanchu pursed his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, and the uncomfortable feeling in his heart seemed to dissipate a lot.
Jun Moye held her arm excitedly, but also with some caution.
"Chu Chu, we have a child."
Su Hanchu slowly reached out and stroked her lower abdomen.
Is there a little life here?
Ping'er quickly took the silver and gave it to the doctor.
"Doctor Li, are our wife and the little one in her belly all right? Would you like to prescribe some medicine to maintain the pregnancy?"
Doctor Li spoke with a smile.
"Madam, you've just gotten pregnant, so naturally your body will have some discomfort. I'll prescribe two doses of medicine for you to drink."
Su Lichuan also brought back some dried radishes. Wei Furong had just finished taking care of her own daughter-in-law, and now her daughter was pregnant, so she naturally had the experience to take care of her. She went to the kitchen and made a light and delicious dish for Su Hanchu.
Su Hanchu ate the pickled radish made by his mother and the freshly prepared side dishes, and managed to eat some of them.
Jun Moye's eyes were always on Su Hanchu, and his eyes were filled with unconcealable joy.
Seeing this, Wei Furong took the Su family away after eating.
After Jun Moye was sure that Su Hanchu didn't want to eat anymore, he picked her up and carried her back to the room, carefully placing her on the bed.
He squatted down and reached out to touch her lower abdomen.
"Chu Chu, we have a child."
Seeing him as excited as a child, Su Hanchu reached out and covered the back of his hand.
"You, this is the second time I've said it."
Jun Moye stood up and sat next to her, put his arms around her and put his face close to her.
"Chu Chu, thank you."
Su Hanchu leaned in his arms, and the two of them enjoyed the joy of being parents together.
"Why thank me? You're a father, and I'm a mother. We both have a new identity."
The Jun family was in a festive mood, but the Shen family was a completely different scene.
Since Shen Luoxue's marriage with the Gu family was also off, Mrs. Shen had been a little anxious and angry recently. Shen Luoxue was worried about the gossip outside, and she also knew that on that day, her clothes were torn and her bellyband was exposed. She was so depressed that she locked herself in the room.
On the day of the winter solstice, because the mother and daughter were in a bad mood, there was no grand celebration. The housekeeper just prepared a table of dishes.
Seeing that the dishes were served and Shen Luoxue had not appeared yet, Chenzhoufu spoke with some displeasure.
"Where's Luoxue? Will she miss the winter solstice? Do you still look like a lady?"
When Mrs. Shen saw that Shenzhoufu was angry, she hurried to speak for her daughter.
"Master, Luoxue is not feeling well..."
I’ve been tired of hearing this set of rhetoric lately, and Shenzhoufu interrupted Madam Shen’s words with a gloomy face.
"She's been feeling unwell, and unwell again. She's been feeling unwell so many times this month. I think she's completely ruined."
Zishu, who was sitting next to Shenzhoufu, was already Shenzhoufu's noble concubine. She gently picked up the dishes that Shenzhoufu liked to eat.
"Master, don't be angry. It's not worth getting yourself hurt by anger. The young lady is young and has experienced such things. Reputation is very important to a woman. It's normal for her to be in a bad mood."
Seeing how considerate she was, the Chenzhou government became more and more satisfied with this new concubine.
"Zishu is still considerate."
Mrs. Shen's expression did not change. Her fingernails had dug into her palms under the table. This bitch, people were kind enough to take her in, but she actually seduced the master.
Zi Shu observed Chenzhou Fu's expression and continued to speak.
"It's just that it's been a month, and the young lady still hasn't recovered. She locks herself in the room all day. If she continues like this, it won't be good for her health."
