Chapter 771 Sticky!!
The Gu family calmed down for a while. When Gu Yin occasionally came home during the day without classes, the house was quiet.
That afternoon, Gu Yin had no classes and returned to the Gu family home from school. Her aunt had already prepared the meal, and Gu Yin was just about to eat when her phone rang. She saw that it was her third senior brother calling and immediately answered.
"Third Senior Brother? What's wrong?"
When Gu Yin returned from school, she went to the lab. Yue Zemin and Meng Yu were still busy there, talking about going home for dinner. Less than half an hour later, they called. Gu Yin was a little worried, since Meng Yu's due date was in the next few days and she could give birth at any time.
Thinking about it, he got up and went to the kitchen.
"Ah Yin, your senior sister has a stomachache and might be about to give birth. I'm taking her to the military hospital next to the school now. I didn't bring anything with me. My family just went to a wedding in another province today. Since you have elderly relatives, could you please talk to Grandma Gu and tell her what we need to prepare and bring it over for me? I can't go home right now! Thank you so much! Please help me!"
The voice of Yue Zemin, steady yet trembling, came from the other end of the phone. Clearly, he was suppressing his nervousness and anxiety, worried that the more anxious he became, the more chaotic things would become, and also afraid of affecting his senior sister's emotions.
Gu Yin nodded hurriedly as she walked towards the kitchen: "Drive slowly, I'll be there soon. Don't rush. I'll call the dean over there. You must stay calm! Your senior sister and the child's safety depend on you!"
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yin immediately called the hospital director of the military region and asked him to help arrange for a doctor to pick up Li Li. Li Li's surgery was performed there, and some bigwigs from the military hospital were also called to participate in the subsequent submission of materials. So, they actually owed Gu Yin a favor. Making the phone call was perfectly reasonable and in accordance with the law.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yin went to the kitchen and found the housekeeper: "Auntie, do you still have chicken soup? Is it suitable for pregnant women who are about to give birth? If so, could you pack some for me, along with some other food, to take to the hospital for my senior colleagues? By the way, do you know what I need to prepare before giving birth?"
Upon hearing this, the aunt immediately took out a thermos: "There's still chicken soup! It was originally saved for when the old lady and the others come back later, but you can take it now, and I'll make it later! As for the maternity bag and such, the old lady prepared it a long time ago! She originally said that she would give it to Mr. Yue after Miss Meng gave birth, since Mr. Yue is all alone and doesn't know much about many things, and it's not good to let his family prepare everything, so she prepared one set! I didn't expect it to come in handy! I'll take it to you!"
After finishing speaking, he ladled out the chicken soup and turned to go to the old lady's house.
Seeing this, Gu Yin packed the other dishes as well. After packing them, she carried the insulated box out and saw the aunt coming over with a combination lock box.
"The old lady put everything in here! Everything the pregnant woman and the baby need is in there! You take it there, they'll understand. If all else fails, I'll go with you, explain everything to them, and then I'll come back!"
The food at home is actually enough, we're just missing a soup. The host family is very accommodating, they won't mind if we're missing a dish.
Gu Yin nodded upon hearing this: "Okay, then Auntie, you can come with me. As for the soup, I'll talk to Grandma about it later! Let's go!"
As soon as the two arrived at the garage, the bodyguard captain had already gotten the car. During this time, the captain had been following Gu Yin, acting as her personal driver.
After getting in the car, Gu Yin called Grandma Gu and the others to explain the situation. Upon hearing this, the old lady, who was still shopping, immediately asked about the hospital and rushed over as well.
When Gu Yin and her aunt arrived, Meng Yu had already completed the hospital admission procedures and was walking around the ward. Yue Zeming was supporting her. Grandma Gu and the others had arrived before Gu Yin and the others.
When the old lady saw Gu Yin coming over and noticed the familiar combination lock suitcase, she smiled and said, "Luckily, the housekeeper still remembers this suitcase, otherwise we wouldn't have had time to prepare if she gave birth tonight! I picked and chose all these things to find the most suitable ones! You brought food? Then let Xiaoyu eat more! Save some energy! Xiaoyu, don't leave yet, come and eat some first!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yin took the lunchbox to the dining table and opened it: "This is chicken soup and rice prepared at home. I brought enough for two people! Senior sister and senior brother, you two can eat together!"
Yue Zemin and Meng Yu hadn't eaten yet. Although everything had been arranged after they arrived at the hospital, Yue Zemin still didn't dare leave Meng Yu's side for even a moment. He originally planned to ask the nurse to buy some food from the cafeteria and have his family bring it over when they returned.
Seeing that Gu Yin had brought all the food, Yue Zeming was very grateful!
He helped Meng Yu to a soft chair, patted Gu Yin's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Junior sister is so thoughtful! Haven't you eaten yet? You and your senior sister eat something first, and I'll eat when the nurse brings the food later! And Grandma Gu, you've been busy all day, go home and rest first, and come back after the baby is born?"
It's not good for the elderly to stay in the hospital indefinitely. Besides, Ah Yin mentioned that the elderly have been busy preparing for Lan Yan's wedding these past few days, working non-stop. It's better to let them go back and get some rest.
I've been running around to many places looking at fabrics lately, and it's been quite tiring. Plus, the Chu family elders are here too. The Chu family is familiar with them, but they haven't had much contact with Yue Zemin and his family. I can stay here, but it's not appropriate for Grandpa Chu and Grandma Chu to stay here. But if I let them go back now and leave the old man and I here to watch over things, that wouldn't be right either.
Thinking of this, Grandma Gu put her suitcase away and looked at Yue Zemin: "Everything is inside. You've seen it before and know how to use it. Let's go back and rest and have dinner first. If you want to eat something tonight, tell Ayin, and I'll have Auntie cook it for you! Call us if you need anything, don't be shy, okay?"
Yue Zemin nodded: "I understand. Then you and Grandpa, and Grandpa and Grandma Chu, take care. I'll let you know as soon as I give birth!"
After the four elderly people and the aunt went back, Gu Yin looked at Meng Yu. Meng Yu looked alright. She had been taking good care of herself during this time. In addition, she occasionally ate some things brought back from Dabai Mountain. Even though Meng Yu was an older mother, all her physical indicators were still up to standard and even better than some young people. However, she looked a little tired, probably because she was in too much pain.
"How are you? Does it hurt a lot? Did you get an epidural?" Gu Yin sat down, ladled a bowl of chicken soup for her, and placed it in front of her.
Meng Yu took a deep breath and said helplessly, "Giving birth is always painful! Sure enough, you can never truly understand unless you experience it yourself! I knew it hurt, but I didn't know it hurt this much! When the contractions started just now, I almost wanted to give up! The doctor said I'm only two centimeters dilated, and I should get an epidural when I'm three centimeters dilated. The pain will only get worse as I dilate. I really hope the epidural can relieve this damn pain!"
Gu Yin had never given birth in her previous life, but she had heard that childbirth was very painful, unimaginably painful. Painless delivery could indeed alleviate a lot of pain and was a blessing for pregnant women, but she had never experienced it herself and was not sure if it was true.
"It must be useful, otherwise it wouldn't have been on the market and so widely available. I should have researched this kind of drug earlier. Don't think too much, let's eat first!" Mainly because she's not very old and hasn't thought about having children, she's never considered this aspect of drug research. She'll start a research project later!
"You must have come without eating, and you must be hungry too. Eat with me, I can't possibly finish all this!" Meng Yu said gratefully to Gu Yin.
Gu Yin shook her head: "This is for you and your senior brother. I'm not hungry yet. I'll eat when I'm hungry. Your senior brother will have to take care of you later, so you need to eat your fill! Don't refuse now!"
Yue Zemin was about to decline when there was a knock at the door. The group looked over.
Chu Yan, dressed in a sharp suit, stood at the door carrying a silver insulated box.
Gu Yin's eyes lit up: "Why are you here?"
Chu Yan walked in and placed the insulated food container in front of Gu Yin, saying, "I hadn't eaten when I got home, and then I heard from Grandma that you were here. I remembered that you had texted me when you were about to eat, so I calculated the time and knew that you hadn't eaten. I asked the housekeeper to prepare some food and brought it over. There's also some soup here that Grandma asked Aunt Ya to make for you, to help you regain your strength. Take a look for yourselves."
After speaking, he unbuttoned his suit jacket and sat down next to Gu Yin.
Gu Yin raised an eyebrow: "Want to eat together?"
Chu Yan nodded: "I haven't eaten yet, I'd like to eat with you."
Gu Yin didn't think anything of it; she was already used to Chu Yan clinging to her.
Meng Yu, standing nearby, laughed: "Watching other people fall in love is definitely the sweetest thing, especially young people. Their clinginess is so sweet it hurts your teeth!"
