Sure enough, Lu Ting blew hot air into Su Yan's ear and coaxed her, "Yan Yan, help me." Before Su Yan could react, her hand was grabbed and placed there.
She knew that if she didn't take action now, it would be even more annoying later, and taking action was always better than talking.
Afterwards, Su Yan collapsed weakly in Lu Ting's arms. Lu Ting massaged her hands and said, "Yan Yan, after this baby is born, we really won't have any more children, so that they won't disturb our lives."
Su Yan rolled her eyes at Lu Ting. She thought to herself that this bastard would die if he didn't eat meat. She had never seen a man so addicted to this.
Chen Yuhe said in front of her that Lu Jin and she seemed to have an unhappy married life, one was addicted and the other was indifferent. Are they really brothers?
"Lu Ting, I definitely won't have another baby after this one. Do you know how many babies are in my belly?"
Lu Ting looked at Su Yan in disbelief, "What did you say? How come there are so many children in your belly?"
"I asked my dad to take my pulse this afternoon. He felt that I was pregnant with more than one baby. He couldn't tell if it was two or three, so he had to wait and see."
"Multiple babies? Yanyan, are you pregnant with multiple babies? Our military compound is so big, with tens of thousands of people, and there are only two pairs of twins. One pair is in their twenties, and the other is just three years old." Lu Ting was so excited that his whole body was shaking.
Su Yan knew that twins did exist nowadays, but they were indeed rare. The reason why there were so many twins in later generations was mostly due to artificial insemination, where they wanted to implant several embryos. Another reason was that older mothers were more likely to give birth to twins.
"My dad's pulse diagnosis skills are pretty good, so he shouldn't be wrong. Now at least I can guarantee that the baby is not a child."
"Yan Yan, I heard that multiple births are hereditary. Has anyone on your parents' side ever had twins? My parents' three generations of ancestors have never had twins."
"Neither did my parents. The reason I'm pregnant with twins this time is because the medicine my father prescribed for me to regulate my body contained a lot of Chinese herbs that stimulate ovulation."
In fact, many tonics have the effect of promoting ovulation. If they are all taken together, the effect may be significant in promoting the development of follicles and releasing one more egg.
For example, angelica, astragalus, glossy privet fruit, white peony root, schisandra chinensis, dodder seed... and so on.
Considering the excessive blood loss during monthly menstruation, if women don’t take good care of themselves when they are young, they will be prone to aging when they get older.
She didn't think much about it. Whether it was to keep her body healthy to lay the foundation for the next child, or to avoid getting so old in the future, she just took the medicine as her father asked.
She didn't look carefully at what medicine her father prescribed. He asked her to boil it in three bowls of water, so she boiled it in that bowl of water and took the medicine for two months.
However, not all women will really become pregnant with multiple babies after taking a few doses of tonic. Chinese medicine is not like Western medicine. Whether taking Chinese medicine will cause one more egg to be released at a time actually depends on the probability. In the final analysis, everything depends on luck.
She was extremely lucky. God probably knew that she wanted to be lazy and only wanted to have two children, so he gave her twins as the second pregnancy to torture her.
"Is that the dark Chinese medicine you drank every night? Isn't that for nourishing the body?"
"Well, taking nourishing medicine can improve lesbians' fertility. I guess it was just luck that she was able to have multiple babies this time."
Lu Ting hugged Su Yan, not knowing what to say. "Yan Yan, I heard that giving birth to multiple babies is prone to difficult labor. I hope you only have one in your belly."
"What's the point of saying so much? There must be more than one baby in her belly right now, at least two, maybe even three."
"Three? What are we going to do with three? Will you be in danger?"
"If there are only two babies in the belly and they are in the right position, I will try to give birth naturally. If there are three babies, I will do a caesarean section. In any case, giving birth to two babies will definitely cause losses."
Many men think that giving birth is as easy as pooping. In fact, a woman will age three years older after giving birth to a child. The more children she has, the faster she ages. One or two children are actually enough. Having more children is really bad for women's health.
When Lu Ting heard Su Yan say this, he became even more frightened. "If I had known how many babies you would have, I would not have given birth to this one."
"What nonsense are you talking about? A child is a blessing, how can I not want it?"
"I mean, if I had known how many babies you would have, I would have just gotten a sterilization and just had one child."
"Lu Ting, look at every family. They have several children. The family downstairs has seven. If we only have one child, people will doubt you.
The two families next door have asked me several times why Yiming doesn’t have a second or third child now that he’s grown up.”
"Don't pay any attention to them. They're just bored. Now that the kids are here, we'll accept them no matter how many there are. Can you start taking leave now, maybe for a year or two?"
"It's a bit difficult. It would be great if I could take half a year off."
"Yan Yan, isn't a cesarean section dangerous? I don't want them to cut your stomach at all."
Who wants a cut on the belly? She didn't want one either, didn't she? And now, cesarean sections don't have cosmetic incisions. They'll leave a long, centipede-like scar on the belly, which isn't only unsightly but could also affect the couple's relationship.
Su Yan chatted for a while and fell asleep. Lu Ting kissed her forehead, feeling a little confused. He got up and smoked a cigarette, then went to the drying room to pack bags of beef jerky of various flavors. The cured beef smoked with pine and cypress branches and rice would be smoked for another night, and he would come back to pick it up tomorrow morning.
After finishing his work and washing his hands, he went back to the study. I wonder what he was writing in his diary.
The next morning, Su Yan woke up to see a variety of breakfasts on the table. Bird's nest porridge, boiled eggs, beef noodles, fried dough sticks, potato cakes, sweet soy milk...
"Lu Ting, what are you doing?"
"Aren't you pregnant? Eat more. If you don't take good care of yourself, how will you recover?"
"But you prepared too much, I can't finish it?"
"If you can't finish it, I'll eat it. I'll give some to my son later."
Su Yan quickly washed up, drank a small bowl of bird's nest porridge, ate half a bowl of beef noodles, half a fried dough stick, and drank half a cup of soy milk. She really couldn't eat anymore.
"Yan Yan, you should eat some eggs. I cooked eight eggs in total. And these potato pancakes, aren't they your favorite?"
"I'll take two eggs to work later and eat them when I'm hungry in the morning. I ate too much today and really can't eat any more. Give the potato pancakes and egg fried dough sticks to my son!"
"Okay, the stove outside is cold, so I won't serve the beef noodles."
After Lu Ting finished his breakfast and brought out some food, Su Yan remembered the beef jerky and cured beef.
"Oh no, I forgot to put away the beef jerky."
"Don't worry, Yanyan. Whether it's the cured beef and braised beef for cooking or the beef jerky snacks, I've taken care of it all.
Come back tonight and I'll clean up the tripe and the offal. Yanyan just needs to have a good rest."
Su Yan really doesn't want to move now. If it were in modern times, she would have hired a few people to take care of her life.
