Through these incidents, Yu Huiru quite agreed with her son-in-law's statement: "Haven't you heard the saying that the most poisonous heart is a woman's? Although I am also a woman, I know that some women can be even more ruthless than men when they want to be."
Han Yixian said, "My mom will definitely be reluctant to part with him, and she must be feeling very sad."
Yu Huiru sighed and said, "That's right. Your mother was caught off guard by Xiao Sitian's sudden departure. After all, she raised that child for more than half a year and had already grown attached to her."
I'm telling you this so that I can stay home and look after Yuhan tomorrow. You can go to Laohewan to see your mother, tell her the good news about Yuhan's pregnancy, and make her happy too.
She knew that since Yuhan was pregnant, she would stop thinking about the child who had passed away.
Han Yixian said, "Then I'll trouble Mom to take care of Yuhan for a day tomorrow. I'll go to Laohewan Village to check on things."
He Yuhan slept soundly, and when she woke up, she seemed to smell the aroma of meat. She immediately felt a little hungry.
This was the first time she had felt so hungry since she knew she was pregnant. It seemed that being back home and relaxing had reduced her pregnancy symptoms.
She slowly sat up, feeling weak all over and with aches in her muscles—the aftereffects of several days on the train. Even in a sleeper berth, she couldn't get a good rest.
When He Yuhan came out of the bedroom and into the living room, Gu Huayang and He Haobo were playing with toys. When they saw He Yuhan, they ran up to her and called her "Auntie".
Upon hearing this, Yu Huiru quickly ran out of the kitchen and into the living room, where she saw the two little ones hugging He Yuhan's legs and talking to her.
Yu Huiru broke out in a cold sweat and quickly ran to He Yuhan, pulling the two children apart and saying, "Huayang, Haobo, listen to Grandma, your aunt is pregnant with a little brother. You mustn't bump into her, or you'll hurt him. When he's born, he can play with you all!"
The two little ones were delighted to hear that a little brother would be joining them, and they nodded in unison, promising not to bump into their aunt again.
After instructing the two little ones, Yu Huiru straightened up and said, "Yuhan, you are pregnant now, so you can't be as carefree as before. You have to be careful in everything you do. Especially in the first three months when the pregnancy is still unstable, you have to be extra careful."
He Yuhan nodded and said, "I know, Mom. You've forgotten that I'm a doctor. How could I not know these things? Don't worry, I'm taking care of everything."
Yu Huiru said, "You know that's good. I've already made chicken soup for you. Go wash your face and drink the soup later. Look how thin you are, your cheeks are all sunken. You need to eat more for the sake of the baby in your belly."
As Yu Huiru was speaking, Han Yixian had already brought the chicken soup to the dining room. "Yuhan, go wash your face. The chicken soup Mom made is very good. I also steamed some egg custard for you. Eat some too. It's all easy to digest."
He Yuhan said, "You don't need to be too nervous. I feel much better after I got home. Now I feel hungry just from the smell of chicken soup."
Upon hearing this, Han Yixian exclaimed with delight, "Really? That's wonderful! You'd better eat more then!"
Han Yixian stepped forward and helped He Yuhan to the bathroom to wash her face.
He Yuhan felt both helpless and touched by Han Yixian's anxiety. She hadn't been feeling well these past few days, and Han Yixian had been worried about her and hadn't been getting enough rest either. She had lost weight, and Han Yixian had lost weight too.
He Yuhan was helped to wash her face by Han Yixian and then came to the restaurant. Yu Huiru had already served her a bowl of chicken soup. "Come on, Yuhan, sit down and have a bowl."
He Yuhan sat down and said, "Mom, I can't finish such a big pot of chicken soup by myself. You should all have some."
Brother Yi, you've lost a lot of weight too. You need to drink more. You've been working much harder than me lately.
Seeing that his wife was still thinking about him, Han Yixian couldn't help but smile. "I'm a man, what's a little hardship? You're carrying two babies now, you need to eat more and at least gain back the weight you've lost."
Yu Huiru was pleased to see the young couple caring for each other.
She also noticed that her son-in-law had lost a lot of weight, so she served him a bowl of chicken soup. "Yixian, you've lost a lot of weight. Haven't you heard? Health is the foundation of everything. Listen to Yuhan, you should also take care of your health."
"It's not like we don't have the means. Besides, chicken soup doesn't keep well; it's better to drink it fresh."
Finally, at He Yuhan's insistence, everyone, adults and children alike, drank the chicken soup. He Yuhan also ate a bowl of steamed egg custard.
He Yuhan didn't vomit after eating these things, which made Han Yixian very happy. "It seems that being at home makes a difference. Your reaction is much less severe. I wish it were always like this today."
He Yuhan said, "No matter what happens when you're out, you'll feel uneasy. When you're home, you feel at ease, and your body doesn't react as much."
Han Yixian said, "Let Mom stay at home today. She'll take care of you tomorrow. I'm going to visit Laohewan Village."
Yu Huiru said, "The biological parents of the child your mother-in-law found have come, and your mother-in-law returned the child to them. I was worried that your mother-in-law would be upset about this, so I asked Yixian to go and see him since he came back."
He Yuhan was also surprised, "How could this be?"
Yu Huiru briefly recounted the whole story, and He Yuhan sighed deeply as she listened. "This is truly a complicated affair. That woman must be mentally disturbed to do something so heinous."
"Brother Yi, you should go check on Mom tomorrow. If she's not doing well, bring her and the others to stay with us for a while."
Han Yixian said, "Don't worry, as soon as I tell Mom you're pregnant, she'll be overjoyed. She's been longing to have a grandson, and now her wish is about to come true. She'll be ecstatic!"
He Chenglin also came to Han Yixian's house that evening, as he was also worried about his daughter's health.
Seeing that my daughter had lost a lot of weight, I knew it was because of severe pregnancy reactions. I was also relieved to see that her complexion was okay and she wasn't having as much of a reaction to food.
Since Yu Huiru was going to stay with her child, He Chenglin also moved in with her.
When He Zhenhua returned to his home in the compound after get off work in the evening, he found no one there. He only realized that his younger sister and her family had returned and gone to her house after seeing a note left by his mother.
He Zhenhua then rushed to Han Yixian's house.
Seeing how worried his parents were about his little sister, he asked and found out she was pregnant and he was going to be an uncle. This was truly a joyous occasion.
He Zhenhua had dinner at his sister's house.
He Chenglin was going to stay with his wife and children. After dinner, he sent his eldest son home to stay.
He Zhenhua discovered that he was a firefighter, always there wherever he was needed. Yesterday he was at his younger sister's house watching over the house, but today he was sent home all alone.
Sigh, his status at home is getting lower and lower.
