Zhou Jian'an quickly rallied, faster than Chu Yu could have imagined. Chu Yu had to admit that Zhou Jian'an could withstand great storms and could get back up quickly after falling down.
Zhou Jian'an acquired two plots of land in the South China Sea. These two plots are in good locations, and with this wave of opportunity, it's hard to guarantee that he won't make tens of millions. Chu Yu really doesn't want to see him regroup and rebuild his business like this.
However, she is pregnant now and doesn't have much energy to deal with Zhou Jian'an.
Chu Yu placed her palm on her abdomen, finding it hard to believe that life was already growing there. Yet, these two children were a special presence and a delightful surprise for her and Dai Donglin.
After Yu Guihua learned that Chu Yu was pregnant, she often cooked delicious food for Chu Yu.
Aunt Yu is getting old, and her own children are already in high school and junior high school. She hasn't taken care of children for many years. After Chu Yu had a child, she suddenly felt like her own daughter was having a baby.
Sister-in-law Yu truly regarded Chu Yu as her own daughter.
Lately, everyone has been trying to feed Chu Yu, which makes her a little helpless. "Please don't bring me any more food. Look at my face, it's gotten rounder than before from eating so much."
Sister-in-law Yu scrutinized Chu Yu. "Where is she round? Although I'm just a country bumpkin, I know that you can't get too fat during pregnancy. The women in my village who get too fat all have really heavy babies, weighing eight, nine, or ten pounds at birth. It's terrifying! How can a woman bear such a big baby?"
All of Yu's relatives had various problems after giving birth, but Yu herself had five children and her body didn't seem to have any problems. Yu thought that it was better to raise children smaller, as it was easier to give birth and would cause less damage to a woman's body.
Chu Yu nodded, "You're amazing! The doctor also told me not to get too fat, and the parenting books I read also said that I need to control my weight, so I don't dare to eat too much."
Sister Yu used to struggle to get enough to eat and was very good at controlling her weight. But now that things are better, she wants to eat until she's only 70% or 80% full.
“I brought you meat, which is protein. The food in the cafeteria is too salty, and it’s not good to eat too much salt when you’re pregnant. I thought it would be better for you to eat lighter meals so you won’t have water retention.”
Sister-in-law Yu added, "Qiao Shanshan is a little more pregnant than you. If I calculate the time, her baby is three months older than yours, so she'll give birth earlier. But people say twins are often born prematurely, so you might give birth one after the other."
Chu Yu nodded. It was indeed quite a spectacle that she and Qiao Shanshan became pregnant one after the other. It was a pity that the two were not close, otherwise they could have exchanged ideas.
Dai Donglin returned at noon.
Dai Donglin was worried that Chu Yu wouldn't eat properly, so he planned to cook for her when he got back. Chu Yu found it troublesome, but Dai Donglin was happy to do it. Others have such a hard time having one child, and she has two. Dai Donglin was worried that she would suffer too much during her pregnancy. Marriage is supposed to make people happy. If women can't feel happy in marriage, then what is the point of marriage for them?
Pregnancy is something that cannot be replaced. If it could be replaced, Dai Donglin would really be willing to suffer that pain for her.
When Qiao Shanshan saw Dai Donglin come back at noon to cook for Chu Yu, she felt uneasy. Wei Mingyuan had been good to her these past few months, but his kindness felt insincere. He wouldn't cook for her, wouldn't come back to check if she had eaten properly, and wouldn't worry about her health.
To be honest, Dai Donglin's kindness surpasses that of most men towards women, while Wei Mingyuan's kindness towards her is simply the normal concern a husband shows his wife.
Qiao Shanshan felt a little uneasy.
They all lived in the same compound. She was better at making money than Chu Yu, more considerate and sensible, and better at doing business than Chu Yu. Everyone said that Chu Yu's career was developing well, but Chu Yu didn't even own a Mercedes-Benz. On the other hand, Qiao Shanshan had only been doing business for a few months and had already made so much money through her own efforts.
Qiao Shanshan believes she is the chosen one, someone favored by God. She must have some hidden skills, and whatever she does will succeed.
Qiao Shanshan was full of confidence, but when it came to Chu Yu, she couldn't help but compare them.
She couldn't let go of her resentment. Dai Donglin was an excellent junior high school graduate and treated his wife so well. Why didn't Wei Mingyuan learn from him? She was already so outstanding. Don't men like to be attracted to the right woman?
She's so outstanding, why couldn't Wei Mingyuan be a little more considerate towards her?
Qiao Shanshan was extremely jealous. She had an important guest to meet today, a secondhand assembler of medical equipment. However, the assembler didn't sell the equipment itself, but rather the parts for assembling it. If Qiao Shanshan cooperated with her, she could obtain the parts and start assembling the equipment.
The man's name was Lu Dongmin, and he was from the north. Qiao Shanshan exchanged a few pleasantries with him and discovered that Lu Dongmin was actually from the same hometown as her.
"Brother Lu, what a coincidence! I've been in Beijing for so long, and this is the first time I've met someone from my hometown."
Lu Dongmin smiled and said, "People from our area don't come out often, and we rarely see them in Beijing. I haven't met one in a long time either. We're quite destined to meet. Girl, let me tell you the truth. Medical devices are very profitable, but in this industry, the bold get rich while the timid starve. You have to think it through. Assembling medical devices can potentially break the law."
Qiao Shanshan was stunned for a moment. "Breaking the law? Brother Lu, are you serious? But we're assembling medical devices to sell, there's nothing illegal about it. We've already talked to the hospital, and they've agreed, right?"
"You need a license to assemble medical devices. Do you have that license? Here, you're using Lusen's name without permission. It's good that Lusen isn't pursuing this now, but what if one day Lusen's people find out that you're assembling medical devices in mainland China? You're using their agency while impersonating them. If you're sued in court, who do you think will support you?"
