Chapter 136 Chapter 136 Pregnancy
Shu Niannian deliberately groaned and complained that she was uncomfortable, "My waist is a little sore, my shoulders hurt a little, and my calves are a little swollen."
Shu Niannian turned sideways and let Ye Jinhong rub his shoulders and waist. Ye Jinhong's hands had their own heat source, and as soon as his hands covered Shu Niannian's lower back, Shu Niannian let out a long sigh of comfort.
She was very tired these days and fell into a deep sleep after talking to Ye Jinhong for only a few words.
Seeing that Shu Niannian fell asleep, Ye Jinhong stopped disturbing her. He stared at Shu Niannian for a while in the dim starlight outside the window, then fell asleep beside her.
In order to return to Haicheng as soon as possible, Ye Jinhong worked day and night and was very tired these days.
The next morning, Lin Xuanyin estimated the time when Shu Niannian would get up, and prepared a nutritious breakfast for her, including steamed buns, egg custard, and millet porridge to nourish the stomach. In the past, Shu Niannian always asked Li Shaoyao to go to Wenhui Snacks to get breakfast, but Lin Xuanyin felt that now that Shu Niannian was pregnant, breakfast could not be sloppy, so she decided to prepare three meals a day for Shu Niannian from today. When she proposed this at the dining table, Shu Niannian refused, "Mother, don't be so troublesome. Just like before, I will have breakfast and lunch at my mother's house, and dinner at home. I am in good health. I just felt a little uncomfortable yesterday. Besides, you still have to go to work. You can't ask for leave now, right?"
Lin Xuanyin thought about it carefully and felt that this was not impossible. "I can retire early so that I can take care of you and my grandson more conveniently."
Shu Niannian suddenly felt a great deal of pressure. She looked at Ye Jinhong for help. Ye Jinhong calmly stopped Lin Xuanyin from thinking further, "Mother, let's go to the hospital with Niannian to have a physical checkup today, and then we can talk about other things. Also, don't keep talking about your grandson. What if Niannian is pregnant with a girl? Do you think she will be sad when she hears that you despise her so much? Will she still be willing to be close to you after she is born?"
Lin Xuanyin zipped his mouth and said nothing.
After breakfast, Shu Niannian, Lin Xuanyin and Ye Jinhong went to Haicheng First People's Hospital. After a blood test and HCG chorionic villus test, it was confirmed that Shu Niannian was indeed pregnant.
Lin Xuanyin was overjoyed and immediately wanted to take Shu Niannian home to rest, but apart from vomiting last night, Shu Niannian did not feel any discomfort.
There were still a lot of things waiting for her to deal with in the medicine shed, and she didn't want to stay in bed to rest. After negotiation, Lin Xuanyin made concessions and compromised. She accompanied Shu Niannian to the medicine shed, and Ye Jinhong returned to the Second Army to report on his work.
Shu Niannian took Lin Xuanyin to the medicine shed. Lin Xuanyin looked at the long line outside the medicine shed and was deeply surprised. She didn't know that a simple medicine shed could attract so many customers?
This was the first time that Lin Xuanyin watched Shu Niannian work up close. However, after just one morning, Lin Xuanyin was already impressed by Shu Niannian's working state. She was serious, easy-going, flexible, and had solid professional knowledge. With such a working attitude, what could she not accomplish?
Lin Xuanyin originally wanted to help Shu Niannian, but she soon found that she could not play any role in the medicine shed. Shu Niannian was so busy and focused, and she was full of energy that she forgot that her mother-in-law was still in the medicine shed waiting for her to give her orders.
However, Lin Xuanyin was not the kind of person who would bully her mother-in-law about other people's affairs. She came to help Shu Niannian, not to cause trouble for her. Seeing that Shu Niannian didn't need her here, Lin Xuanyin went to Wenhui Snack Shop and told Li Guifen about Shu Niannian's pregnancy. Li Guifen was surprised and happy when she heard it. The two of them studied together how to nourish Shu Niannian's body and what kind of diet could both supplement nutrition and prevent the fetus from growing too fat.
Lin Xuanyin had little experience in this area because she had only given birth to one child, while Li Guifen, who had given birth to three children, had more say. After discussing for a long time, they finally came up with a recipe and planned to implement it today.
Li Guifen and Lin Xuanyin went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. After buying vegetables, they lived and cooked in the courtyard house on Chengde Avenue. The kitchen was Li Guifen's territory, and Lin Xuanyin became an idle person with no place to use her skills. Lin Xuanyin was very self-sufficient. She never made things difficult for herself in areas she was not good at. After saying hello to Li Guifen, Lin Xuanyin went to the old house and told Grandpa and Grandma Ye the news that Shu Niannian was pregnant.
Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye were also overjoyed, especially Mr. Ye, who kept praising Ye Jinhong for his abilities.
Grandma Ye interrupted him immediately, "What are you talking about?! When we meet my granddaughter-in-law later, if you keep saying something this ridiculous, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
The person Grandpa Ye fears most in his life is Grandma Ye. Grandma Ye teaches Grandpa Ye like she is teaching a child and never gives Grandpa Ye any face at all.
As a junior, Lin Xuanyin usually pretended to be dead when faced with such a situation. She was looking at the flowers in the yard, and waited for the old couple to finish their argument and come out of the house before Lin Xuanyin led them to the medicine shed.
Grandma Ye was heartbroken. "She's already pregnant, and you don't let her rest at home. You let her go out to work? What kind of job is she doing now? Is it so important? I still have some family assets. If you can't take good care of my granddaughter-in-law, I can use my coffin book to subsidize my granddaughter-in-law so that she can rest at home."
Isn’t it just money? She has quite a few too! She just didn't believe it. Her coffin was not worth the money Shu Niannian would earn in the next ten months? !
Grandma Ye's words were a bit outrageous, but Lin Xuanyin didn't argue for herself. She gave all her family fortune to Shu Niannian, and Shu Niannian never stopped working.
Lin Xuanyin has now seen clearly that money is really not that important to Shu Niannian. Making money is one thing for Shu Niannian, but she mainly enjoys the sense of accomplishment that doing business brings her. After all, what could be more fulfilling than building her own business empire with her own hands?
Grandma Ye and a few others walked towards the medicine shed. Grandpa Ye had been scolded by Grandma Ye when he was at home. He was as quiet as a chicken along the way and didn't dare to say a word to upset Grandma Ye. Lin Xuanyin also behaved well and didn't say a word. She thought to herself, let Grandma Ye see Shu Niannian's working status and then listen to Shu Niannian's work plan. Then look back and see if Grandma Ye can still say such impassioned and critical words?
There was a constant stream of people coming to the medicine shed to buy medicine and see medical consultations. People were coming and going in front of the medicine shed. Now it was past the peak period for consultations and the line in front of the medicine shed had been mostly reduced. Seeing Shu Niannian concentrating on recording pulse records, Grandma Ye somehow became playful and pulled Grandpa Ye to line up as well. Soon, it was Grandma Ye's turn.
Shu Niannian flexed her wrist and shouted without raising her head, "Next!"
Grandma Ye sat opposite Shu Niannian, and heard Shu Niannian's gentle voice, "Excuse me, what's wrong with you?"
Although she said so, before Grandma Ye could say anything, Shu Niannian had already stretched out three fingers and touched Grandma Ye's wrist. Grandma Ye deliberately kept silent, wanting to see Shu Niannian's ability. Shu Niannian kept three fingers on Grandma Ye's wrist for less than ten seconds, then smiled and said, "Grandma, you are in good health and have no problems. It's just that you have been very angry recently and have a bad temper. If you trust me, I will prescribe some lotus leaf chrysanthemum tea for you. Go home and boil the water to drink, and you will be in a peaceful state of mind soon."
Shu Niannian smiled and looked up, and saw Grandma Ye opposite her smiling broadly, "Sure, of course I trust the prescription that Doctor Shu wrote for me!"
Shu Niannian looked at Grandma Ye, then looked at Old Man Ye behind Grandma Ye, and said in surprise, "Hey, why are you here?"
Grandma Ye held Shu Niannian's hand tightly and scolded, "Why didn't you tell us about your pregnancy right away? Also, since you're pregnant, why don't you stay at home and rest? Why do you have to come here to set up a stall and do business? Don't you have enough money to spend?"
Shu Niannian was "challenged" by Grandma Ye, and she explained one thing after another, "I just confirmed my pregnancy this morning, and grandma, I have enough money to spend, but I plan to open a Chinese patent medicine store. Now I am in the stage of improving the prescription, and I can't interrupt. What we pay attention to when doing things is determination. We should do it with all our strength, and then we will be weaker and weaker. Now that the matter of opening a Chinese patent medicine store has been decided, we must execute it step by step. We can't give up halfway, even if we are pregnant!"
Grandma Ye was stunned. She didn’t know Shu Niannian was so ambitious. !
This made her feel relieved and worried, "But you are pregnant after all."
Shu Niannian smiled and said, "It's okay, I know my limits."
Seeing that Shu Niannian had convinced Grandma Ye with just a few words, Lin Xuanyin was convinced. It was really like the saying "one thing conquers another". As a daughter-in-law, Lin Xuanyin had always had to compromise and give in in front of Grandma Ye. She had never seen Grandma Ye give in in her life. Yet, she was so easily dealt with by Shu Niannian. Lin Xuanyin could only comfort herself that Grandma Ye's infinite doting on Shu Niannian was only because they were related by a different generation!
Shu Niannian took care of the affairs in the medicine shed and left Li Shaoyao to look after the stall. She then went to Chengde to reach the courtyard with Grandpa Ye, Grandma Ye and Lin Xuanyin. Fortunately, Lin Xuanyin told Li Guifen in advance that Grandpa Ye and Grandma Ye might come to eat at noon, otherwise, they would have been caught off guard at noon today.
Li Guifen prepared lunch. She ate and chatted with Grandpa Ye and Grandma Ye, then asked Shu Wenhui to bring lunch to Li Shaoyao.
The lunch that Li Guifen prepared for Li Shaoyao was very sumptuous, full of growth-promoting ingredients. Shu Wenhui carried the lunch box to the medicine shed, and as soon as he approached, he heard a sarcastic voice coming from the shed.
"Oh my, do you think you've climbed up the social ladder? Are you starting to dislike the person I introduced to you? Tsk, don't you open your eyes and take a look? With such a working environment, what's the difference between it and begging on the street? A shabby shed set up at the street corner, and you still think it's a company? I can tell you very clearly that you have been cheated! You work so hard to watch the stall for others, but be careful that you won't get a penny at the end of the month! Well, I think you are really pitiful, so how about this, you treat me to a meal of beef noodles, and I will be magnanimous and forgive the meanness. "How about I introduce the man I had before to you?! ? Even though he is ten years older than you, older men are more caring. Although he is a second marriage, he has no children. You can still have a child of your own if you marry him. His family has a shop in Haicheng and can earn more than 100 yuan a month. If you marry him, you can live a luxurious life as a young lady. Would you consider it? I tell you, you will never have such a good chance again. Not everyone is lucky enough to meet such a good man!"
