Ms. Lin wrung her hands. "My main concern is Yuan Yuan. Given our family's situation, raising ten or eight children wouldn't be too much of a burden, but we can't just prioritize our own needs and neglect Yuan Yuan's health, can we?"
Shen Xizhou nodded, "That's true. The problem now is that Yuan Yuan herself might not agree."
You have no idea how smug she was when she told me that during the day.
Although she is busy studying most of the time, she actually spends about three hours every day with her children, playing with them, taking videos of them, and even creating a blog account to share her children's daily lives. She truly enjoys it.
This shows that Yuan Yuan genuinely likes children and that's why she wants to have one.
"Sigh...who doesn't love children? I wish we had as many children as possible in our family," Ms. Lin sighed.
But as I said before, one shouldn't be too selfish.
The family was discussing whether or not to keep the quadruplets, or how many to have, but Chu Yuan hadn't worried about any of that at all.
Let alone four, if it weren't for the fear of being captured and researched for being anti-human, Chu Yuan would have wanted ten babies in one pregnancy, and the system could have easily done it and guaranteed the survival rate!
After discussing for more than half an hour, Ms. Lin and Shen Xizhou still could not reach an agreement on the three options: normal delivery, fetal reduction to stabilize the pregnancy, and direct abortion.
Ms. Lin insisted on reducing the number of fetuses to ensure stability, because Chu Yuan already had experience with twins, so reducing to two would be very safe.
However, Shen Xizhou believed that if they didn't want any of them, then they shouldn't have any at all, and they should keep whichever ones they wanted to keep. This was unfair to the babies who had come into Chu Yuan's womb at the same time.
Shen Jianzhong, however, has remained silent.
Finally, seeing that the mother and son could not reach a conclusion, he pondered and said, "How about we ask Yuan Yuan for her own opinion?"
The child is hers and Xizhou's; she conceived and gave birth to it. We should respect her wishes the most.
"As expected of Commissioner Shen, his words hit the nail on the head."
Shen Xizhou couldn't help but give a thumbs up in praise, then turned and left. "I'll ask when I get the chance. Now I'll go check on Wanwan and Yueya. There were so many people today, and they were being hugged and held by so many people. They need to take a good shower to avoid getting sick from too many germs."
"I'm going too!" Ms. Lin caught up with him.
Shen Jianzhong thought he couldn't fall behind, so he stretched out his hand, "Then I'll go too, you guys wait for me!"
At 10 o'clock sharp, Shen Xizhou finished taking care of his two daughters and finally washed up and lay down.
He'd been dawdling for almost ten minutes and still hadn't said a word.
Chu Yuan was sitting in front of the dressing table doing her skincare routine when she noticed something was wrong and turned to look at him. "What's going on? Just say it."
Only then did Shen Xizhou reveal his thoughts about the quadruplets.
However, before he could even ask Chu Yuan whether she wanted it or not, Chu Yuan said with absolute certainty, "I'll have it! It's not like we can't afford to raise a child. You don't need to worry about my body not being able to handle it. Let me tell you, I'm slow at studying, but I'm really good at having children."
Inner monologue: Anyway, I've had at least dozens, if not hundreds!
They are all chubby-cheeked, healthy, and have a great appetite!
Shen Xizhou, "..."
She had already said everything, leaving him speechless and unable to continue.
After a long pause, he managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Then let's go to sleep. I'll get up early for work tomorrow. The central government has set a case closure rate for the court that we must meet by the end of the year. Only with good performance can we get promoted and earn more money for our quadruplets' milk powder!"
Six kids...tsk tsk, he must be a super stressed dad!
Chu Yuan chuckled, "Shen Xizhou, relying solely on your salary, wouldn't the seven of us—mother and daughters—live on the wind one day?"
...
In order to prevent this tragic reality from happening, Chu Yuan threw herself into a new round of life-and-death struggle.
Can I only register for the bar exam after graduation?
Okay, let's start with the CPA exam!
The day after receiving the admission notice, Chu Yuan immediately purchased a CPA training course. After nearly half a year of hard work, she took the exam at the end of August and was completely at ease.
When she registered for school in September, while others were still shocked to find that one of her classmates was pregnant, she coincidentally went into labor on September 1st and was taken directly to the delivery room by ambulance at the school gate. In less than an hour, she gave birth to four healthy and rosy babies.
All four were sons.
Their weights generally differed by no more than 2 ounces.
Both weighed over 3 to 4 pounds, which was very balanced. Even the midwife was amazed and shocked. She grabbed Shen Xizhou and asked how the family had nourished Chu Yuan, saying that the child was being raised so well!
The key is that the new mother only gains weight in her baby and not in her body, and she doesn't even have stretch marks!
When a baby is born, the belly deflates, and you can see that the skin on the belly is obviously loose, but the figure is really not out of shape at all.
He didn't know that even so, Chu Yuan was still sad.
Grabbing him tightly, she lectured him, "One month... no, at most half a month. If my skin doesn't recover well, you're finished, I'm telling you!"
What will happen to Baba's great-aunt who gave birth to two children in a row and had six children?
Reassure her: "Mmm, don't worry, little cutie, you'll definitely be back to your pre-pregnancy firmness and smoothness in half a month. No, I mean, even better!"
Only then was Chu Yuan relieved.
As a result, she took a month of sick leave. When her professor and classmates saw her, they didn't recognize her at all. "Hey, who are you looking for?"
"Who is this? Did they come to the wrong classroom?"
"His face looks somewhat familiar. Where have I seen him before?"
Suddenly, someone's eyes widened in realization, and they shouted, "Ah, ahhhhh, it's Jiang Yuan! She's the Jiang Yuan who got pregnant, passed the postgraduate entrance exam, and then went to give birth and took a month of maternity leave as soon as she registered!"
It would have been better if this classmate hadn't yelled; once he did, everyone around looked at Chu Yuan.
At this moment, almost every eye's pupils are dilated to their maximum, conveying the same message:
Is this a new mom who just gave birth?
Stop joking! The school must have entered the wrong information!
****
I thought I could finish writing it today, but I still couldn't.
Tomorrow, definitely tomorrow.
