The encouragement in Song Lan's eyes and her words had a powerful impact on Zheng Qiuwen. In an instant, she was filled with courage, her gaze firm, and she said with utmost seriousness, "I will try my best!"
"Then I'll be waiting for Yueyue's good news!"
Song Lan smiled brightly: "During pregnancy, you should worry less and keep a happy mood to ensure the health of both mother and baby. I am a doctor, and Yueyue should know this. If you experience any discomfort in the future, just call me."
"good."
Zheng Qiuwen nodded slightly, her smile clearly a little shy.
To be honest, it wasn't that Song Lan wanted to meddle, but she could tell from Zheng Qiuwen's expression and spirit that her older sister wasn't in a good state. In order to prevent her from getting stuck on something and causing any accidents, she couldn't help but talk to her about dreams and the college entrance examination.
This was to prevent Zheng Qiuwen from dwelling on unhappy things, or rather, to get her to focus her attention on what matters.
Knowing that Zheng Qiuwen had taken her words to heart, Song Lan breathed a sigh of relief and turned her gaze back to the children playing in the yard.
"Thanks!"
After talking with Song Lan, Zheng Qiuwen felt a sudden sense of relief, as if she had finally seen the clear sky after the clouds had parted. She knew that Song Lan's words were meant to comfort her, and she couldn't help but sincerely thank Song Lan.
"Um?"
Song Lan was taken aback at first, then realized what the other person had said to her, and couldn't help but smile and shake her head: "We are sisters, Sister Yueyue, you don't need to be so polite with me."
To be honest, she genuinely hoped that her sister could live a carefree life, instead of being held back by the past and doing something foolish that could never be undone.
Imagine this: you have a good family background, but you were switched at birth and then abandoned by the same person; as an adult, by a twist of fate, you marry the other person's son. You could have pursued your dreams through the college entrance examination, but because you have too many children, you can't spare the time to participate.
Suddenly, she recalled lost childhood memories and learned that her partner knew about her origins before she was abandoned. As a result, the marriage was dissolved. However, she already had five children, plus the one she was unborn, making a total of six children.
Even if her family helps take care of her, Song Lan thinks that if she were in Zheng Qiuwen's shoes, with too many experiences and not many good memories, and being a mother of six, it would be strange if she were in Zheng Qiuwen's shoes, let alone considering what Zheng Qiuwen would think!
If you are in a bad mood, especially if it is not relieved for a long time, you will inevitably become depressed.
Song Lan noticed something unusual about Zheng Qiuwen today.
For example, when chatting with the elders in the living room, Zheng Qiuwen did not say a word and was in low spirits, lost in her own thoughts.
When called, her response was somewhat slow. In short, if we don't offer timely comfort and give her hope for the future, she might really take an extreme step one day!
Hearing Song Lan's words, Zheng Qiuwen seemed more at ease than before, smiled slightly, and asked, "How are you doing at the hospital?"
"It's fine, my colleagues are all very friendly."
Song Lan responded with a smile.
"Has your second aunt always been taking care of your child?"
Zheng Qiuwen asked again.
"My mom can't take care of everything by herself."
Song Lan spoke softly, with a hint of a smile: "Not long after the birth of Da Bao and Er Bao, your brother-in-law and I, through the introduction of Director Zhang from the machinery factory, hired an aunt surnamed Liu to come to our home to help my mother take care of Da Bao and Er Bao."
Zheng Qiuwen: "Now that you have four children, it's probably difficult for two people to take care of them all."
Song Lan: "Da Bao and Er Bao have grown up a bit. As long as we close the gate, they can play at home by themselves. My mom and Aunt Liu can take care of San Bao and Si Bao without any problem. However, when your brother-in-law and I come home from get off work or rest at home on weekends, we usually take over the children."
In addition, my husband's younger sister and brother-in-law help me with my homework after school.
"Is Qingbin's child being taken care of by his second uncle?"
Zheng Qiuwen asked tentatively.
Upon hearing this, Song Lan laughed out loud: "That's right, it's my dad who's taking care of them. After my older brother and sister-in-law went to university to register, I brought Xiao Ye to live with me. So there are three adults in the house, and they take care of five kids, which is quite lively every day."
“My grandma hired two nannies to help me take care of the children. Today is the weekend, and they are resting at their own home. My dad came home the other day and said he wanted to find two more for me, but I didn’t agree.”
Why do you disagree?
"I... I don't want to trouble my family too much."
“You’re wrong to think like that! First of all, your situation is special right now. Hiring more people to help you take care of the children is an act of care for you and for the children.”
Secondly, this is your home, and your family members are your relatives. To put it bluntly, your third uncle, grandparents, and even Dongsheng and Dongxu are all your support.
You feel like you're causing them trouble, but they certainly don't think that way. They're kind to you and the children simply because you and the children are their family.
If you act too distant, it will unintentionally make your third uncle, grandparents, and brothers Dongsheng and Dongxu feel uncomfortable.
"I'm not estranged from my family."
“I believe you, but your third uncle and the others don’t know! Yueyue, listen to me, just relax and let your family treat you well. If you really feel bad, when you have the ability, you can repay them for their care and love.”
"I see!"
Zheng Qiuwen felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
Yes, her family is good to her and her children. She can't repay them now and feels bad accepting their kindness. But once she gives birth to her baby, she can work hard to get into university and get a job. Then she'll be able to repay her family.
Thinking of her family, including her two older brothers, who still give her a lot of pocket money, and her grandmother taking her shopping and buying her and the children a lot of clothes and daily necessities, Zheng Qiuwen couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
Around 10:30 a.m., Song Lan greeted Grandpa Chen and his wife, as well as Song Sanhe and his wife, and then told Qin Yanzheng that she planned to take Da Bao and Er Bao to the Xiao family to visit Grandpa Xiao and his wife.
As a result, Qin Yanzheng followed Song Lan out of the living room and asked, "You won't let me come with you?" His eyes and tone were a little resentful.
“I saw that you were having a great time chatting with your grandparents and parents, so I was thinking of inviting Yueyue and the kids over for a walk. Since you want to come along, why don’t you come too!”
Song Lan suppressed a laugh and said something.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Qiuwen waved her hand and declined, saying, "Jinzhi and I won't go. After all, I'm not familiar with Grandpa Xiao's family, and going would inevitably..."
Zheng Qiuwen did not reveal the rest of the story.
