In no time at all, the two returned to the sect's gate.
After returning to their sect, the two shared the good news with Jiang Chen and his wife.
Meanwhile, after Gu Changqing and Jiang Qingcheng returned to their residence, they immediately instructed Lao Xu to prepare more food suitable for pregnant women.
After all, pregnant women are different from ordinary people, and their diet and nutrition must be adequate.
"Don't worry, I'll be extra careful when cooking from now on. I'll make special pregnancy recipes for her to ensure that Qingcheng can eat well without gaining weight," Old Xu said with a smile and a sincere expression.
"Really? It doesn't matter if she gains a little weight. How will the baby in her belly get nutrition if she doesn't gain weight?" Gu Changqing was a little skeptical and smiled dismissively.
"Do you think I'm joking? No, I'm not kidding. I guarantee Qingcheng will only gain weight in the baby, not in the body." Old Xu smiled and said seriously.
He wasn't joking; this was a piece of cake for him.
Cooking is what he excels at; he can handle anything from meals for pregnant women to other dishes with ease.
He does have a reputation as a master chef, and that's not just for show.
He was an expert when it came to preparing meals for pregnant women.
Back when his wife was pregnant, he cooked all three meals a day for her.
Not only is it nutritious, but it also only causes fetal growth, not muscle growth.
After his wife gave birth, her weight and figure were almost unchanged from before.
My physical condition is even better than before.
Other women gain a lot of weight after giving birth, but his wife doesn't.
All of this is thanks to him!
In addition, when he was young, he also cooked meals for pregnant women for a period of time for wealthy families.
"Old Xu, can you really guarantee that I'll only gain weight in the baby and not in myself? If you really do that, I'll definitely reward you with lots and lots of good things." Jiang Qingcheng asked, still somewhat doubtful.
After all, in her mind, it seemed that all women would gain weight after getting pregnant and giving birth.
Some women have even become so fat that they are unrecognizable!
It's like a completely different person compared to before, a world of difference.
She doesn't want to become fat and ugly after having a baby; she just wants to stay as slim as she is now after giving birth.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure you're satisfied. As for rewards, I don't need any. I eat and sleep well here, and I get a monthly salary that I can't even spend all of. I'm already very content. Besides, this is all part of my job, so there's no need for any extra rewards."
Old Xu smiled, patted his chest to assure her, and at the same time declined Jiang Qingcheng's offer.
After all, without the help of Jiang Qingcheng and Gu Changqing, he and his son would have met a tragic end.
Therefore, he absolutely cannot accept this reward.
He could hardly repay their kindness, so why would he feel embarrassed to ask for any reward?
"Whether you want it or not is your business, whether I give it to you or not is my business. Lao Xu, you don't need to worry about it. As long as you can help me maintain this figure after giving birth, I will definitely reward you." Jiang Qingcheng ignored Lao Xu's words and said very firmly.
As long as Lao Xu can maintain her figure as before, she will definitely keep her promise.
"It's too early to talk about rewards now, let's talk about it later!" Old Xu said with a smile.
Seeing that Jiang Qingcheng was determined to do so, he couldn't say anything, so he could only say this.
He could really understand why Jiang Qingcheng cared so much about her figure; seeing her was like seeing his wife when she was young.
Back then, his wife was just as afraid of losing her figure as Jiang Qingcheng.
Not just those two, but probably every woman in the world wants to have a perfect figure.
No woman wants to gain weight, become fat, or become ugly.
Which woman doesn't wish to stay eighteen forever?
--------------------
Just then, a young yet familiar voice entered my ears.
"Sister, is it true that you're pregnant?" Jiang Chen asked excitedly as they walked.
"Of course it's true. Would I, your sister, deliberately lie to you?" Jiang Qingcheng smiled and said earnestly.
"Your sister is not only pregnant, but she's also having twins—a boy and a girl, the kind everyone wants!" Gu Changqing said with a broad smile and a smug look on his face.
"Wow, sister, you're amazing! You got pregnant with twins, and they're even rare twins, a boy and a girl! I'm so envious! You're so lucky!" Jiang Chen said excitedly and with great envy.
He was happy for his sister, but also very envious.
Rongrong smiled and said from the side, "Sister, you are such a lucky person. I really envy you. Jiang Chen and I have been together for a while now, but I haven't had any pregnancy yet."
When Rongrong saw that her older sister had good news while she hadn't heard anything, she started to get anxious.
“Rongrong, these things can’t be rushed. It’s all about fate. Besides, you two haven’t been married for very long. It’s good to cultivate your relationship first. When the time is right, the baby will come naturally. Your brother-in-law and I have been married for quite a while now, and we only just got this good news. So don’t worry, just let nature take its course,” Jiang Qingcheng said with a slight smile, earnestly offering her advice.
Seeing Rongrong's worry, Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Why do we need a baby so early? Wouldn't it be better for us to enjoy some more time together? We've only been married a short time, why are you in such a hurry to have a baby? Have you considered my feelings? Even if you were willing, I wouldn't."
Although he also wants to have a baby, these things really depend on fate and can't be rushed. There's nothing wrong with spending more time as a couple.
“That’s right, Jiang Chen is right. You two are still young, and you’ve only been married for a short time. Don’t rush into having a baby. Don’t think that getting pregnant is a good thing. I’ve also heard that it’s a very hard thing. Are you prepared for that?” Jiang Qingcheng continued with a smile.
"Sister, after hearing what you said, I think I'm not in a rush to have a baby anymore, because I'm not ready in this regard," Rongrong said, feeling somewhat relieved.
She was indeed unprepared for this and knew absolutely nothing about it.
She wasn't really mentally prepared to be a mother, so she stopped worrying about it.
Not to mention Rongrong, even Jiang Qingcheng wasn't fully prepared to be a mother.
Hearing their conversation, Gu Changqing suddenly remembered something and said seriously, "Qingcheng, we seem to have forgotten something. Didn't we say that after returning to the Central Gate we would find some books about pregnant women to read? Have you forgotten?"
"Um, if my husband hadn't reminded me, I would have really forgotten about it. I'd completely forgotten about it. Should I go to the library to find the book now?" Jiang Qingcheng scratched her head and said somewhat awkwardly.
"No need, leave this little thing to me. Just make sure you read it carefully after I get the book back!" Gu Changqing said with a smile and a doting expression.
"Don't worry, my husband, I will definitely take a good look at it." Jiang Qingcheng nodded and said earnestly.
