"My daughter has grown up and knows that it's a good thing to feel sorry for us. She has money now and even told us not to be too frugal when she's not around. We should eat and drink as much as we can. Now we just need to wait to enjoy life."
Shen Juan's eyes curved and she smiled happily.
The words of her daughter echoed in her mind and were still ringing in her ears. Shen Juan felt even sweeter and happier in her heart.
After hearing this, Bai Yaotian was deeply moved and couldn't believe that these were the words spoken by his daughter.
Everyone says that raising a son is a way to prepare for old age. At the beginning, the couple only wanted a daughter, and many people around them advised them to have a son while they were still young.
However, Shen Juan injured her body when she gave birth to her daughter, and having a son might not be good for her health.
Bai Yaotian told his relatives that just one daughter would be enough.
Later, if someone came to them and talked about the benefits of having a son and asked them to have one, Bai Yaotian would turn hostile and say that he didn't want one in order to protect his wife.
Later, the two gave all their love to their daughter, allowing her to grow up and live healthily.
Bai Wei was actually quite clever, but she didn't study, so she only went to high school.
Most girls nowadays go out to work after finishing primary school or junior high school. It will be much easier to find a job if you have a junior high school diploma.
Bai Wei’s ability to graduate from high school is inseparable from the support of her parents.
Parents of this generation are not very good at expressing their love, let alone how to say it. Compared with Chen Juan's meticulous care and concern, and the steaming hot meals, what Bai Yaotian asked most often was probably whether there was enough money to spend.
But, this is also love.
Bai Yaotian recalled the days that had passed, and how his daughter had grown from a little kid into a graceful young lady, and now knew to respect her parents. The grown man was so moved that he almost cried.
"As expected, daughters are better. Daughters are like sweet little cotton-padded jackets. Look at those relatives who only want sons. It doesn't matter if they have three or four sons. They still farm in their hometown. Several brothers fight over a house and get hurt."
Bai Yaotian opened a bottle of wine, poured a glass, drank it in one gulp, and said proudly: "When I go to school tomorrow, I have to talk to Lao Liu and Lao Li about this. They talk about their sons and grandsons in front of me every day. I also want to tell them how filial our Weiwei is!"
Chen Juan was also very happy, and for the first time ever, she had a drink with Bai Yaotian.
7:30 in the evening.
The jewelry store was closed, Bai Wei rode her bike home, and Lu Siting had just finished preparing dinner.
Lu Siting was just about to call Bai Wei to eat, but she just ran upstairs with her head down.
After opening the door, Bai Wei took off her shoes, thought for a moment, took off her coat, and then stood on the scale.
Bai Wei looked at the string of numbers in disbelief, wondering if there was something wrong with the scale.
It's only been a short time and she's already gained 6 kilograms? !
Bai Wei came down and stood up again, and found that the numbers were the same.
After pondering for a few seconds, Bai Wei put on her shoes, walked to the floor-length mirror, twisted her body to the left, and looked again.
You know what, she does seem to have gained a little weight.
In the afternoon, Chen Juan jokingly said that she had gained weight. Bai Wei didn't take it seriously at first, but after lunch break, she found that her belly seemed to have grown bigger.
So after returning home, Bai Wei couldn't wait to weigh herself, and then she found that after the first three months of pregnancy, she had indeed gained six kilograms.
This is six pounds of meat, not six ounces or one pound.
How did she gain weight?
Bai Wei sat on the edge of the bed, vaguely remembering that the last time she went shopping with Lu Siting, she also bought a lot of meat. Those three or five pounds of meat looked very big. If it grew on a person, it would definitely make the person fat.
It's only the first three months, and my belly is slightly visible, but if I wear loose clothes, it won't be noticeable.
Bai Wei looked at her belly in distress. She didn't want other parts of her body to get fatter before her belly got bigger.
As for exercise, taking a walk every night is a must. I don’t seem to have time to exercise at other times, so I might as well start with the food.
Anyway, the doctor also said that she could eat small meals frequently, so she ate less at each meal, ate some fruit when she was hungry, and didn't have meat at every meal. If she kept doing this every day, she would definitely lose the six pounds.
Bai Wei still remembers that when she was watching short videos in the past, some pregnant women would record their lives. The differences before, during and after pregnancy were really huge.
Before giving birth, she was a beautiful and fashionable lady. After giving birth, she gained 20 to 30 pounds and seemed to have aged even more.
Bai Wei thought about those women who cried because of losing weight after giving birth, and she became more determined to lose weight herself.
Lu Siting came up to call Bai Wei to eat, and Bai Wei followed him downstairs.
Three vegetarian dishes, three meat dishes, a special clay pot soup for pregnant women, as well as baked steamed buns, steamed buns, and flower rolls.
There was a table full of food, and Bai Wei's stomach was growling.
No, Bai Wei, you are determined to lose weight.
Bai Wei kept repeating this sentence in her mind, and then sat down to discuss: "Lu Siting, starting from tomorrow, the daily meals will not be so good. Just two simple dishes and a soup will be fine."
"Huh?" Lu Siting looked up at her, very confused.
Bai Wei touched her belly and said in distress, "Look, my belly isn't protruding yet, but I've already gained a lot of fat elsewhere. If things continue like this, I'm afraid I'll gain a lot of weight after giving birth. I don't want to cry and scream about losing weight then, it's too scary."
Have you gained weight?
Lu Siting put down his chopsticks and looked at Bai Wei carefully. Her cheeks were rosy and shiny, and her skin was delicate, smooth and tender. Isn’t that great?
Bai Wei used to have an oval face, but Lu Siting always thought she was too thin. Now she is a little fatter than before, but her cheeks are a little rounder, which already looks very good.
Or it would be better if you were a little fatter.
Lu Siting stood up, took a small mirror from the living room, and placed it opposite Bai Wei, saying, "Look, you are in very good shape now. You were too thin before, but now you are rounder and look much better than before. Or it wouldn't be a big deal if you were a little fatter."
Bai Wei took a small mirror and looked left and right. She found that her cheeks were rounder than before, which was indeed better-looking. It was a very healthy beauty.
However, Bai Wei still likes to be thinner, so she plans to eat less.
Bai Wei used to eat two bowls of rice, but after she became pregnant, her appetite increased a lot. She could eat half a bowl of rice more at each meal, and a lot of dishes, and some fruit after the meal.
But from that night on, Bai Wei began to control her food intake, eating only two bowls of rice and no more.
