Chapter 106 The Best Mother-in-law's Handbook 28
In the room, the doctor twirled his beautiful beard and took the patient's pulse with a serious face. It took half an incense stick of time before the old doctor loosened his hands, which were as hard as old tree bark.
A pair of calm eyes looked at Feng Wu curiously, "This lady is in very good health, and the fetus is normal." The reason why it took him so long to take the lady's pulse was because the lady's pulse was very strange. Logically speaking, how could a woman who was already fifty have a pulse as steady and strong as that of a woman in her twenties, without any signs of old age.
This puzzled him greatly.
When Ji Changsheng heard the doctor say that his wife and child were fine, he finally let out a sigh of relief. Then he thought about the hardship his wife had gone through during her ten months of pregnancy, and quickly pestered the old doctor to ask about some things that pregnant women need to pay attention to.
He had a very good memory, but was still afraid that he would miss something, so he found pen and ink in the room and patiently wrote it down bit by bit.
His patience made Xu Lamei and Xiong Xiaolan envious.
Unexpectedly, the most eccentric person fell ill and his temperament changed. He became the most loving person to his wife in the villages near and far.
Ji Changsheng squeezed out the last bit of knowledge from the doctor, paid him a hefty fee, and arranged for someone to politely send the old doctor back to town.
Seeing that the pregnant woman was fine, everyone went home.
"Wife, the chicken soup is freshly cooked. Remove the excess oil. Drink it while it's hot." After thinking for a while, Ji Changsheng moved a stool over and sat on the edge of the bed. He held the bowl and stirred the chicken soup in the bowl with the spoon in his hand. He scooped up a spoonful, blew on it slowly, and brought it to Feng Wu's lips with an expectant and gentle look.
Feng Wu enjoyed such meticulous care and happily finished a large bowl of chicken soup with some chicken. Her stomach felt warm. She took her husband's hand and placed it on her belly. "My husband, relax. Our child is healthy. You haven't said hello to him yet? Go talk to him!"
Feeling the warmth from his palm, Ji Changsheng had an urge to cry. He half-knelt and put his ear to his wife's belly, listening to the strong beating sound inside. Ji Changsheng's hot heart seemed to be immersed in a gentle spring, soft and tender.
"Baby, I'm your daddy. You have to be good in your mother's belly. When you come out, I'll take you horseback riding and hunting, teach you how to read and write, and even cook delicious meals for you. Okay?"
The news that an old country woman in her fifties was still pregnant spread like wildfire. Everyone was curious about what kind of man could make a fifty-year-old woman pregnant. The rumor became more and more outrageous, causing the soap produced by Fengwu Workshop to sell better and better.
Some businesses even made false advertisements claiming that using this soap would make conception easier.
When Feng Wu found out, she was a little amused and confused. The reason why she was pregnant had nothing to do with her age. This child seemed to have come specially for her and had nothing to do with that damn lard soap or a penny of its value.
Ji Changsheng always appeared calm and indifferent to others. No matter what happened, he always looked confident and confident, as if he could handle anything.
When Zhu Erlang first heard he was going to have a younger brother, he thought they were joking. When he returned home, Liu Qiao started complaining to him sourly, "Your mother is pregnant again. If she really gives you a younger brother, will you still have a share of the family fortune your parents earned?"
Zhu Erlang's chaotic consciousness immediately awakened after drinking two taels of cat urine. In the past six months, his parents had saved up a lot of money by selling soap. Although they had separated, after their parents passed away, wouldn't those things belong to them and their brothers?
But now his mother is pregnant with a baby. Will that huge sum of money still belong to him?
Zhu Erlang was unsure, his face flushed, and the hot air coming out of his mouth had a disgusting fishy smell. He brushed Liu Qiao away and stumbled into the back room to find his mother to ask for an explanation.
The drunk Zhu Erlang relied on the last bit of consciousness in his mind to find his parents' door.
His heart was burning with rage, and he didn't care about etiquette or filial piety, and he kicked open the door that was not closed tightly.
The loud bang woke Feng Wu who had just fallen asleep. When he opened his sleepy eyes, he saw Zhu Erlang's swaying figure.
"Second brother, are you crazy? Get out of here, you unfilial bastard! You're drunk in broad daylight and showing off in front of your own mother."
"Hmph!" Zhu Erlang spoke and acted entirely on instinct. His cloudy eyes stared at Feng Wu's belly, filled with resentment and jealousy. "Mother, you're already old, and yet you're pregnant with a bad baby. I advise you to take some medicine to get rid of this evil beast in your belly. Otherwise, this evil beast will bring ruin to our family in the future..."
Ji Changsheng, who came in with a few pieces of cloth, heard Zhu Erlang's vicious words and his originally calm eyes flashed with terrifying anger.
If he hadn't still had his sanity, he would have broken Zhu Erlang's cervical vertebrae and made him pay with his life for his words.
We can't kill him, but he knows best how to make people's life worse than death.
Carefully placing the soft silk cloth in his hand aside, Ji Changsheng grabbed the scruff of Zhu Erlang's neck, who was still unaware of the approaching danger, and with the palm of his left hand, he struck Zhu Erlang three inches above the spine.
In an instant, the arrogant Zhu Erlang screamed and fell to the ground. He curled up in pain like a shrimp in a frying pan, tears and snot flying, and the drunkenness in him was instantly sobered.
He opened his tear-filled eyes and saw his father looking down at him expressionlessly. Thinking of what he had said when he was drunk before, a chill crept up from his tailbone to the top of his head. His lips trembled as he tried to beg for mercy, but when he opened his mouth to speak, his voice turned into a sobbing cry.
In an instant, Zhu Erlang was sweating profusely from the pain, as if he had been fished out of a water tank.
Ji Changsheng just watched indifferently. He had experienced this kind of pain himself and knew how torturous it was to feel the kind of pain that one wanted to be relieved by death. If this person was not scared of the pain, he would still stick to it like a leech in a paddy field.
"My dear, throw this dog out! It cries as miserably as a pig waiting to be slaughtered. It's not good for the baby to hear it." Prenatal education is still very important.
Upon hearing that it was not good for the child, Ji Changsheng's face immediately became serious. He relieved Zhu Erlang of his pain, grabbed his belt, and threw him out of the room.
The moment the pain subsided, Zhu Erlang's whole body relaxed, and he was thrown out by his father like a pile of mud.
The pain and fear that penetrated deep into his bones made him drag his limp body out of the house even though he couldn't stand up and walk.
He wants to leave here. He doesn't want to die here. This is not his home. This is clearly a hell of swords.
