Upon hearing this, Song Lan smiled and said, "Okay, keep a good mood, remember what I told you, and come to the hospital for your prenatal check-ups on time."
"OK."
Wei Hongjuan nodded.
"Dr. Song, we'll be going now. You're busy!"
Seeing other patients waiting outside the consultation room, Sun Hao reached out to help Wei Hongjuan and said goodbye to Song Lan.
Song Lan nodded: "Take care."
Goodbye, Dr. Song!
Wei Hongjuan was helped to the door of the clinic by her husband Sun Hao, and she turned around and waved to Song Lan.
"goodbye."
Watching Wei Hongjuan and her husband disappear outside the clinic, Song Lan invited the patients to sit down.
-
Time flies. True to her word, Song Lan has been at home preparing for childbirth for several days now. Every day, besides eating, drinking, and sleeping, she walks around in the yard, reads books, and writes.
Of course, occasionally Li Jumei and I would take the two little ones to kindergarten together, or go to the kindergarten to pick them up.
That day, after breakfast, everyone went to work or school, leaving only Song Lan and Li Jumei at home. With nothing to do, Song Lan looked at Li Jumei and said, "Mom, I want to learn how to knit. Will you teach me?"
The original owner only knew how to knit in stockinette stitch. Ever since Song Lan first saw Li Jumei knitting a sweater, she had wanted to learn a thing or two. Now that she was at home preparing for childbirth, she had complete freedom to manage her time, and she thought it would be a good idea to learn how to knit.
“I’ve already knitted several sets of sweaters and pants for the two kids, so you don’t need to bother.”
Li Jumei was busy knitting a sweater for Song Lan. It was a light sky blue color, which looked very refreshing and clean.
"I'm just free!"
Song Lan acted coquettishly.
"Then sit still, or should I help you walk around the yard?"
Li Jumei glanced at her precious daughter, her hands still busy, and said, "Yanzheng said that all you need to do now is wait to give birth, and you absolutely cannot be involved in anything else."
"I didn't do anything at home!"
Song Lan was somewhat amused and exasperated: "I just wanted to learn how to knit, it's not a big deal, is it?!"
"Why not? Knitting sweaters is hard on your eyes and hands. If you want to suffer, I can't bear to see you go through it."
As Li Jumei spoke, she shook her head and then said, "Listen to me, don't make trouble for yourself. If you really don't know how to kill time, think about what you want to eat for lunch, and I'll make it for you."
"Mom, I'm not a good-for-nothing."
How can one crave food every day? Besides, it's only been a short while since breakfast, and she's already struggling to think about what to eat. Song Lan felt both helpless and deeply happy at that moment. She smiled slightly, quietly watched Li Jumei knitting for a while, and then casually asked:
"I forgot to ask Mom about your trip back to the village to help with the banquet. I wonder if anything unusual happened that day?"
Li Jumei thought for a moment and said, "Zhao Zhiqing and that other person held their banquets on the same day. Is that considered special?"
"It was probably Song Jiaojiao who suggested it, right?"
Song Lan asked.
"She really knows how to cause trouble. I don't know what that Zhao educated youth was thinking, that she would agree to marry such a person. First, she made trouble by saying that the bride price Zhao gave wasn't as much as that other person gave Zheng educated youth."
Then she went on to arrange for Zhao Zhiqing and that other person to have their wedding banquets on the same day, as if she were the only one with the ability to completely control men.
When Li Jumei mentioned Song Jiaojiao, her facial expression didn't change at all, as if she had forgotten that she had raised Song Jiaojiao for more than ten years.
Song Lan: "To each their own. Perhaps in the eyes of that educated youth Zhao, Song Jiaojiao has some admirable qualities."
Li Jumei: "Don't give your mother any of this. I only know that Zhao Zhiqing is probably blind. Otherwise, why would he fall for that person of all people? Just wait and see, he'll be ruined sooner or later."
"It's a matter between Zhao Zhiqing and the other person; it has nothing to do with us. We don't need to worry about them."
Song Lan said casually, and upon hearing this, Li Jumei said, "Your mother doesn't have time to worry about other people's business. It's not that you want to hear about those messy things in the village, so I just mentioned it to you."
By the way, Dongxu doesn't really like that guy. Why do you think that is? Aren't they brothers? Why can't they get along?
"Only the parties involved probably know the answer to this."
Song Lan didn't know what kind of entanglement existed between Chen Dongxu and Chen Dongze, nor did she care to find out. She was just a cousin to them; if they got along, they could be relatives, and if they didn't, they could stay away.
"Your grandparents Chen helped that person give Zheng Zhiqing a dowry of 1001, saying that she was one in a thousand. It seems that your grandparents Chen are very satisfied with Zheng Zhiqing as their granddaughter-in-law."
Li Jumei's tone was a little sour.
Song Lan laughed: "Mom, do you think my grandparents are biased?"
Li Jumei did not deny it. She said, "I can understand. No matter what, that person is your third uncle's stepson, and your third uncle was raised by your Chen family grandparents. It is only natural that they would favor your third uncle's child."
"Mom, Grandpa and Grandma Chen are wise old people. They must have left good things for my eldest brother and sister-in-law, my second brother and my younger brother. Besides, I think that even if they wanted to show favoritism now,..."
They're also biased towards our family's children. Think about it, my dad was separated from them for decades, and it wasn't easy to find them.
You gave them three grandsons and a precious granddaughter. They must be deeply moved. They might even be thinking of leaving everything to our family!
However, I think we don't need to care about what Grandpa and Grandma Chen left behind..."
Li Jumei interrupted: "Why shouldn't we care? Your father is their son, and you and your siblings are their grandchildren. What is rightfully yours should be given to you. Otherwise, someone else will surely benefit."
"Mom, do you believe me?"
Song Lan asked with a smile.
“Of course I believe what my daughter says.”
Li Jumei responded without hesitation.
"Then listen carefully, Mom. Take my current situation for example. As your and Dad's daughter, I believe my medical skills have already brought you honor. And my older brothers and younger brother will all have great things to achieve in the future."
Mom, you and Dad are our parents. Having such wonderful children who bring you honor, why would you need to care about what others have?
As Song Lan chattered on, Li Jumei stopped what she was doing. She was very obedient, and now, with a hint of doubt in her eyes, she asked, "You mean your eldest brother, your second brother, and your fourth brother are all very capable in the future?"
"That's right, but this is a secret between us, Mom and Dad. You can't tell anyone else, not even Dad. You can't mention it right now."
"I won't mention it, I absolutely won't mention it in front of your dad."
What if it doesn't work after I suggest it?
She has to listen to her daughter and keep her mouth shut!
Li Jumei secretly made up her mind, met Song Lan's gaze, and said, "Ever since you cured your grandma's cataracts, you've made your dad and me proud!"
