"They're already so old. If they knew you were getting divorced, they might not be able to handle the blow... Be good, let's wait until the baby is born, okay?
I swear it's really just this once, and I won't do it again... Fire her? Not yet, you're about to give birth, and the family needs someone else. She's experienced and knows how to take care of you. Hiring a new one would take years of adjustment. I promise you, I'll let her go after you finish your confinement..."
Lu Yu's heart was ice-cold. She felt sick the moment she saw this man, but she endured it for the sake of her unborn child and her parents. She decided to take the child back to her hometown as soon as it was born...
At night, Lu Gui and his old wife lay on the bed in the guest room of their daughter's house, but they were so comfortable that they couldn't fall asleep.
This bed is so soft. I heard it’s made of a Simmons mattress. It feels so soft that it seems to bounce back when you lie down on it.
He and his wife lamented that the life of rich people was good, and were relieved that their daughter married into such a good family and would not have to suffer in this life.
Wang Xiulan was just as excited and relieved as he was. However, she was overthinking things and said with some worry, "My son-in-law is a nice guy, but I think his mother-in-law is difficult to get along with. She talks as if she's dying. She looks like she's a difficult person to please. I wonder if my daughter can handle her."
Hearing this, Lu Gui also became worried, but he soon felt relieved. "She doesn't live with her mother-in-law and they don't interact much, so she shouldn't be bullied."
"You're right, I was worrying too much."
Lu Gui patted his wife's hunched back and said, "Go to sleep quickly. I'll make chicken soup for my daughter tomorrow morning. She loves your chicken soup the most."
But no one expected that Lu Yu would fall ill in the middle of the night, and there was a little redness on her body. The whole family woke up, hurriedly took the things they had prepared in advance, helped her into the car, and hurried to the hospital.
Lu Gui also squeezed in. As soon as he sat down, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten something. He shouted anxiously to his wife below: "Money! Money!"
Qi Shun started the car and said, "No need to take the money, I've prepared it all!"
Wang Xiulan then remembered that she had brought money with her. She heard that children in the city had to be given birth in the hospital, so she brought all the money at home, a total of 500 yuan.
She hurried back to the house to get a handkerchief containing money, and also picked up a small bag containing small clothes for the child.
Although I know that my son-in-law has prepared money, it is always a good idea to prepare more when my daughter is having a baby, so that she won’t be in a panic in case of an emergency.
Wang Xiulan stumbled and took her things into the car, which plunged into the vast night.
Along the way, Wang Xiulan supported her daughter and kept comforting her. She was so nervous that she forgot about motion sickness.
Lu Yu's contractions came quickly and violently, and the pain made him feel nauseous and irritable. Fortunately, there was no traffic jam at the time and the hospital was not far away, so he arrived there soon.
The car drove directly to the door. Qi Shun stopped, picked up Lu Yu and ran inside, shouting as he ran: "Doctor. Doctor!"
Doctors and nurses in white coats rushed over, and Lu Yu was quickly sent to the delivery room. The three of them were stopped outside.
Lu Gui was so anxious that he was running around in circles, Wang Xiulan was so nervous that she kept wanting to go to the toilet, and Qi Shun was also walking back and forth anxiously outside the delivery room.
Although Lu Gui had never given birth, he had seen his wife give birth and bleed profusely, nearly losing her life. The thought of this made him very uneasy...
After the family left by car, Zhou Yuan also rode out on his bike.
