Chapter 121 Chapter 121 The Spirit is Pregnant
Fu Lingyou changed his clothes and came over to greet his elders. He was a little disappointed when he didn't see Xuetuan.
He was supposed to come back with Lingzhi yesterday, but something happened at the farm, so he came back today. Unexpectedly, it started raining halfway, and by the time they arrived at the village, they were almost completely soaked.
Miao Ying made him a bowl of ginger soup, watched him drink it, and asked him how many days he could stay this time.
"Two or three days. It's raining and it's hard to travel, so I want to have a good rest." Fu Lingyou didn't know why. This yard was obviously not big, not prosperous, and the food, clothing and other expenses were incomparable to home, but he just felt more peaceful here than at home, so when he was free, he would accompany Lingzhi to stay for two days.
"I just happened to need to talk to you about something," Miao Ying said. "Xuetuan is now old enough to eat something. I'm thinking you're lucky, so I'd like to ask you to prepare a meat gift for him. What do you think?"
Fu Lingyou naturally would not refuse. What Miao Ying said was not false. He was indeed lucky. He was just a little hesitant because he had no idea how to perform the meat ceremony.
Li Hongying said, "It's very simple. Let's not make it too complicated. When the time comes, just hold Xuetuan and feed him."
So Fu Lingyou agreed, but he didn't expect Miao Ying to ask more questions: "Did you have a good temper when you were a child?"
Lingzhi quickly said, "Brother has a very good temper and has always spoiled us. When Lingyao and I were little, he never beat us up even though we were naughty."
Miao Ying asked again: "So you haven't been picky about food since you were a child?"
Lingzhi replied: "Brother is never picky about food. He eats whatever is given to him. In the past, when Lingyao and I didn't want to eat something, brother would eat it."
Miao Ying looked at Ling Zhi suspiciously: "You are younger than him, how come you remember everything?"
Lingzhi took it for granted: "Isn't this a normal thing? Don't you remember what happened when you and your brother were little?"
Miao Ying shook his head feeling a little guilty: "I just don't remember anything." It's not that he didn't remember, he just didn't know anything at all.
Lingzhi was a little surprised: "I can't remember other things clearly, but I can definitely remember how we got along. For example, whether we had fights when we were young, I can definitely remember that clearly."
Miao Ying broke out in a cold sweat. He suddenly remembered that Miao Dong had asked him a few questions about his childhood in a very nervous manner one day. How did he answer at that time? He thought that Miao Dong would not notice anything wrong.
"Xiaoying, what are you thinking about?" Lingzhi poked his waist.
"Nothing." He then asked, "So your brother was smart when he was young, right?"
Lingzhi laughed, thinking that Miao Ying asked a very stupid question.
"Okay, I'll trouble you, big brother."
In their current situation, no matter what they addressed each other, it would feel inappropriate, so Lingzhi called Huo Xing "Big Brother" and Miao Ying called Fu Lingyou "Big Brother", and it didn't matter how the two men addressed each other.
It has been raining all day today, and Xuetuan can't go out to play. He is a little unhappy and keeps babbling. He doesn't want anyone to hold him, so someone else has to take him out to watch the rain every once in a while.
He seemed to still remember what his father had touched him in the morning. He waved his hands, which were like lotus root nodes, and kept trying to go out into the rain. Fu Lingyou held him and kept hugging him back: "Xuetuan, good boy, it's raining."
Lingzhi also came over: "Xuetuan, do you want to play with water?" He also put some water on Xuetuan's hand, and Xuetuan immediately smiled happily.
"You can only play a little bit." Lingzhi pinched his chubby palm, "You'll catch a cold if you play too much."
Speaking of which, Xuetuan has never been sick since he was born. The most difficult time to take care of him was when he just came out of the confinement period. He didn't know why he was always crying. Miao Ying didn't learn much about parenting in his previous life, and he was so anxious that he paced around the room.
Later, my mother came and said that this is common among children of this age, and that it would be fine if I just picked her up and walked around with her more often.
Later, Miao Ying discovered that Xuetuan's crying was indeed much quieter when Huo Xing held him, so during that period, Xuetuan was basically held by Huo Xing. If Miao Ying had some basic parenting knowledge in his previous life, he would know that this was a stage that newborns must go through, called colic.
The couple held Xuetuan under the eaves and watched the rain for a long time. Miao Ying pouted and said, "Every time you come back, you grab the child."
Huo Xing rubbed his hair: "Do you want it? I'll get it back for you."
Miao Ying didn't say anything. Huo Xiaobao on the side kept nodding. He would be leaving in a day. Every time Big Brother Fu came, he would take Xuetuan all to himself. He had rarely held Xuetuan. "Big Brother, take Xuetuan back."
Without waiting for Huo Xing to snatch the child, Fu Lingyou sent the child back. Li Hongying said she wanted to go to the vegetable garden, but was stopped by Lingzhi and Fu Lingyou, who said they would go alone. At this moment, both of them were wearing straw raincoats, so Miao Ying had no choice but to go with them.
But when they came back, Lingzhi was carried back by Fu Lingyou. Miao Ying handed Xuetuan to Huo Xing: "What happened?"
Lingzhi was a little embarrassed: "The road was too slippery, I fell down."
"Did you sprain your ankle?"
Lingzhi shook his head: "No."
Miao Ying didn't stop them and asked them to go back to their room to change clothes. When the door opened, Lingzhi didn't come out. Miao Ying was a little anxious: "Where did you fall?"
Fu Lingyou let him into the room. Miao Ying looked at Lingzhi who was resting on the bed and always felt that he did not look very well.
"I don't know what happened." Lingzhi forced a smile, "I fell and my stomach hurts a little."
Li Hongying happened to be walking to the door. When she heard what he said, she was startled and hurried into the room: "Lingzhi, are you pregnant?"
Everyone inside and outside the house was shocked. Fu Lingyou rushed into the house without caring about his image and asked, "What did you say?"
"It's just an ordinary fall, so it shouldn't hurt your stomach, right?" Miao Ying was a little afraid to touch Lingzhi, but now he was also worried.
"I'll go find a doctor." Fu Lingyou wanted to go out just after listening to their speculations.
Huo Xing stopped him while holding Xuetuan. "There may not be a doctor willing to come if you go now. Let Lingzhi rest for a while. We'll see how things go tomorrow after the rain stops."
Lingzhi also nodded: "Brother, the rain is too heavy, and I don't feel anything else at the moment, so don't go out."
Fu Lingyou had no choice but to retract his steps.
Miao Ying and the others didn't stay in the room for long, letting the two of them talk properly.
After this episode, everyone was absent-minded while eating. In the past, when Lingzhi and Fu Lingyou came back, they would not sleep in the same room at home. They would either sleep in separate rooms or go back to their own yard to sleep. Today was a special situation, so he stayed at home.
After waiting for a long time for the weather to clear up the next day, Fu Lingyou went out early in the morning. When Miao Ying woke up, he had already come home with a doctor.
It was not the village doctor they usually saw, but one invited from the town, who was currently taking Lingzhi's pulse.
Miao Ying held Xuetuan in his arms, leaning against the door of Lingzhi's room, and looked at the doctor's hand taking his pulse nervously.
Xuetuan didn't want to stay at the door and wanted to go in, so he hummed and babbled. Miao Ying carried him into the house again.
I could hear what the doctor said.
"She's pregnant indeed." The old doctor twirled his beard. "It's just that the fetus is a little unstable. She needs to stay in bed and rest for a while."
"The fall yesterday didn't have any impact on you, did it?" Miao Ying touched Xuetuan's head and looked at Lingzhi with some concern.
"There's nothing serious for now, but he must be careful not to get any more bumps or bumps." The old doctor collected his things. "He was a little tired earlier, so he must remember to get enough rest."
Li Hongying nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, just stay in bed and rest?"
The doctor shook his head: "Basic walking around is fine, but don't get too tired."
"Okay, okay." Li Hongying replied, "You're going to stay in bed for the next two days, right?"
They asked a lot of questions over and over again, and the doctor answered them one by one. Only then did Fu Lingyou send the patient away safely. When he came back, he saw Miao Ying sitting by the bed. Xuetuan was placed on the bed by him and was lying there playing.
Seeing him come back, Miao Ying picked up Xuetuan and let them talk.
After Fu Lingyou discussed with Lingzhi, they decided to let Lingzhi stay at home to recuperate. It was not suitable for him to travel back to the county town now, so he could only go home after he was more stable.
Li Hongying has always regretted not taking care of Miao Ying when he was pregnant. Now that she finally has the chance, she must take good care of Lingzhi.
Miao Ying thought for a moment and said, "Shall we go get some more chicks?"
Li Hongying nodded: "It's time to get some back. We have to wait for the hen to hatch on its own. We don't know how long we have to wait."
The two of them discussed quietly, but Lingzhi heard everything: "Mom, Xiaoying, am I the reincarnation of a fox? Why do I have to eat so many chickens?"
Miao Ying snorted: "Just lie down and don't meddle in the adults' affairs."
Fu Lingyou could only say that he was bothering them. He had to go back home today to bring some things for Lingzhi and tell his family the good news.
The child in Lingzhi's belly is the eldest grandson of their Fu family, and they must know this.
Fu Lingyou stayed with Lingyi at home for a day. The next day, when the road was easier to walk on, he returned to the county town.
After returning to the Fu family, Fu Lingyou told his parents about Lingzhi's pregnancy. When Mrs. Fu heard that Lingzhi had fallen, she almost fainted. When she came to her senses, she said she would go and pick him up, thinking that only her family could take good care of him. However, Fu Lingyou refused.
"He can only stay in bed to recuperate now. I will bring him back after the critical period is over."
"Then bring some supplements, and bring more servants too!" Madam Fu had already started making arrangements. "Bring all the supplements."
"Mom, no need. It wouldn't be comfortable over there if too many people went. Just take Xing Ge'er over there." Fu Lingyou watched them pack up. "No need for so many tonics. The doctor said too much is not good."
Finally, Fu Lingyou picked out a lot of things before taking Xing Ge'er with him to go to Rongshu Village.
Fu Linghuai also heard the news and sent them to the gate: "Brother, congratulations."
Fu Lingyou patted his shoulder and said, "Thank you very much. Thank you for taking care of my parents during this period."
"As a son, this is what I should do." He nodded.
There was no politeness between Fu Lingyao and Fu Lingyou. When he heard that they were going to Rongshu Village, he wanted to go with them too. Fu Lingyou had no choice but to take him with them.
"Is it possible to eat the food cooked by Miao Ying this time? Big brother, I've been craving it for a long time!"
