Upon hearing Wen Ya's words, Jin Jinxiu couldn't help but smile and jokingly asked, "So what should you name the next two?"
Qian Duoduo tilted her head and pondered for a moment. After a while, she turned her gaze to the third child and suggested, "How about calling him 'Little Pomelo'? Or 'Little Grape' would also be fine."
Jin Jinxiu looked at Qian Duoduo expectantly, but after hearing the suggestion, she couldn't help but gently pat her and scold her, "Oh dear, look at all the names you've come up with! They're either too big or too small! Can't you pick something more moderate for me?"
Qian Duoduo winked mischievously and replied with a grin, "Just right? Well... we can't exactly call him 'dragon fruit,' can we? Haha!" She then burst into laughter, eventually lying flat on the bed. While clutching her stomach and laughing, she reached out and touched the third child's toes, continuing to tease, "Lu Jin, Lu Jin, your grandma said she wants you to be a dragon fruit! Hahaha..."
Jin Jinxiu patted Qian Duoduo again and said in an annoyed tone, "Look at you, you're so unserious!" Wen Ya was laughing uncontrollably beside her.
Finally, Lu Jin, the third child in the family, has a particularly cute nickname—Little Bun—while the fourth child, Lu Yu, is called Little Pomegranate. Jin Jinxiu initially protested strongly about this! However, to her dismay, the children's grandmother and mother completely ignored her opinions and continued to call the children "Little Bun" and "Little Pomegranate" all the time. As the days went by, even Jin Jinxiu began to find the nicknames rather cute!
That said, after a heated debate, Qian Duoduo finally convinced her mother-in-law and biological mother to reject the initial four-month postpartum confinement plan, opting instead for a full two-month confinement period to recuperate. Although she had to follow traditional customs in front of her elders, maintaining a state of not washing her hair or bathing, the clever Qian Duoduo wasn't about to simply endure it. Every evening, when all was quiet, she would sneak into the farm space to enjoy a relaxing bath. Even more surprisingly, she unexpectedly discovered that the water in the space had a miraculous effect on promoting recovery! So, whenever it was late at night, Qian Duoduo couldn't wait to slip into the space for a comfortable bath.
And so, when she finished her postpartum confinement, Qian Duoduo did not become slovenly due to neglecting personal hygiene for a long time. On the contrary, thanks to her frequent use of the magical water in the space and her recent active participation in exercise, she soon returned to her perfect pre-pregnancy weight and radiated a charming glow!
Wang Rui, a pregnant woman herself, was filled with envy for Qian Duoduo. She stared intently at the figure doing stretching exercises, her mind racing with fantasies of recovering as well as Qian Duoduo after giving birth. She watched as Qian Duoduo performed the exercises, memorizing each step and eagerly anticipating learning them herself after delivery.
Standing to the side, Jin Jinxiu smiled and quietly watched Wang Rui do the stretching exercises with Qian Duoduo. Although she appeared relaxed and at ease, she was actually filled with anxiety, fearing that the slightest mistake might cause harm to the fetus. However, as time quietly passed, to everyone's surprise, Wang Rui's energy and spirit improved dramatically, a stark contrast to her listless and dejected state during her early pregnancy!
Wenya, who had been standing by and witnessing this scene, found her daughter-in-law's actions quite interesting, so she tried to do them too. At first, it was difficult to do, but gradually she found that her back pain and leg cramps were gone, which she found amazing!
After following along for a while, Wang Rui could no longer suppress her intense curiosity. She moved her feet, supporting her waist, and slowly approached Qian Duoduo, who was already resting. Then she gently asked, "Duoduo, I feel really good lately. What's going on? Why can pregnant women do these exercises? I've never heard of such a thing before."
Seeing Wang Rui's puzzled expression, Qian Duoduo smiled with overflowing maternal love. She calmly wiped her hands and replied, "Actually, for pregnant women, appropriate exercise has many benefits. First, it can help pregnant women have a smoother delivery and reduce the occurrence of complications such as difficult labor; second, exercise can also promote fetal growth and development, making the baby healthier and stronger after birth!"
After listening to Qian Duoduo's detailed explanation, Wang Rui suddenly realized what was going on. She slapped her forehead and said embarrassedly, "Oh dear, so that's how it is! It seems I was really ignorant before, not even knowing such important knowledge."
Just as the two were talking, Jin Jinxiu and Wen Ya, who were comforting the child, along with the two nannies, Sister Gao and Sister Liu, were all surprised to hear this. They hadn't expected that these actions would have such benefits. They all stared wide-eyed, their mouths agape, their faces filled with disbelief.
"What? There's such a saying? We always thought that pregnant women just need to take leisurely walks to get some exercise. We never imagined that this kind of exercise could help!" Sister-in-law Gao exclaimed in surprise.
Aunt Liu chimed in, "Yes, yes, we used to live in the countryside. Even when we were pregnant, we had to work to earn work points. Some pregnant women even had to give birth in the fields! If we had known this earlier, we might have been able to take better care of my daughter-in-law."
A few days after Qian Duoduo finished her postpartum confinement, she couldn't wait to start working from home. That day, Peng Fei brought some of Wanmao Company's work home, while Jin Jinxiu quietly watched Qian Duoduo as she busied herself, carefully reviewing documents and quickly signing her name.
Jin Jinxiu couldn't help but say, "Duoduo, you don't need to rush to work!" She had just finished her postpartum confinement period, and even though she was at home, she couldn't rest properly. It was high-intensity work for a new mother, which made Jin Jinxiu feel sorry for Qian Duoduo!
