Lin Zhizhi was really confused. Her personal doctor never told her not to eat duck feet.
Lin Zhizhi remembered very clearly that as long as the baby did not eat raw, cold, spicy, or stale food, a diversified diet would be more conducive to the fetus's nutritional intake.
So now Lin Zhizhi is really a big question mark.
The same thing happened to Lu Yi who was standing by. When he heard what his grandmother said, he suddenly panicked. Could it be that he had missed something that Dr. Li had told him?
As Lu Yi was thinking about this, he took the duck feet that Lin Zhizhi had put in the bowl, and at the same time he took the phone beside him and wanted to call Dr. Li directly to ask him something.
While Lu Yi was busy, he did not forget to ask his grandmother, "Grandma, what will happen if I eat it? Is it serious? I have eaten it before, what should I do? We are now..."
Seeing how anxious Lu Yi was, grandma asked him a barrage of questions in one breath without taking a breath in between, leaving him no chance to answer.
While the grandmother felt relieved, she quickly interrupted Lu Yi, fearing that if she was a few seconds late, the boy would think that Zhizhi was in danger and would want to go to the hospital immediately.
"Don't be anxious, don't be afraid, stop and listen to me."
Grandma paused, and seeing that Lu Yi had stopped, she hurriedly explained, "Actually, I didn't ask Zhizhi to eat these duck feet. The main reason is that we have always said that if pregnant women eat duck feet, the baby's hands and toes will be inseparable or grow a sixth toe."
Lin Zhizhi didn't really believe in these rumors or superstitions, but she still felt a little disgusted subconsciously when she heard these words. Lin Zhizhi looked at the duck feet in the bowl that she hadn't had time to take a bite of, and she thought she wouldn't touch them again for the time being.
Lin Zhizhi subconsciously stroked her belly, gently caressing and soothing it, thinking to herself: Baby, baby, it's okay, it's okay, grandma is wrong, don't be afraid, come to your mother in good health, understand~"
When Lu Yi heard his grandmother's answer, he felt relieved, but at the same time, he felt a little amused and helpless as to why his grandmother would believe such unreliable words.
Lu Yi noticed Lin Zhizhi stroking the baby, and quickly placed his hand gently on Lin Zhizhi's hand, and silently comforted the baby together with her.
Lu Yi looked at his grandmother, "Grandma, it doesn't sound true. How could it be like this just because of eating something? And I know about this. Six-fingered babies are mainly caused by genetic and environmental factors. Zhizhi and I don't have this problem, not to mention the environmental aspect. There is definitely no problem."
"The most important thing is that we go to the hospital for regular checkups, and everything is normal. We also have a doctor who specializes in the baby's care, and she will communicate with us at any time, so you don't have to worry."
Lin Zhizhi also nodded.
Grandma looked at the two children who looked like they wanted to believe in science, sighed, and said, "Grandma also knows that we should believe in science, but most of my life is over, and that's what the older generation said. I've heard it a lot. If you see Zhizhi eating these again, you'll feel a little worried."
Seeing that her grandmother was a little lonely, Lin Zhizhi hurriedly comforted her, "Grandma, how about this? I'll listen to you and stop eating these before the baby is born. Don't worry about getting angry. It's not good for your health, okay?"
Anyway, Lin Zhizhi can't bring herself to eat the duck's paw now.
Grandma nodded and smiled, "Zhizhi, don't worry, I will definitely give you enough nutrition. Besides, there is not much meat on duck feet and duck wings. I have arranged a perfect diet for you."
"Besides, grandma knows that you are all afraid that this is the superstition of the older generation. Don't worry, grandma is not stupid and will not force you to do anything. But I will explain everything to you first, and you can decide whether to do it or not."
"As for the fruits, grandma has already thought about it. There are grapes in the basket in the kitchen. You can eat some grapes after dinner. They all say that eating more grapes is good. The baby will have big, bright eyes and will be very beautiful."
Grandma talked about the baby's eyes, and then she began to imagine what the baby would look like. The more she talked, the more she seemed to be immersed in joy.
Lu Yi was standing aside, subconsciously wanting to speak up and explain it to his grandmother right away, but was stopped by Lin Zhizhi. Anyway, she didn't like duck feet so much that she had to eat them, but she would prefer to eat them when there was a whole chicken or duck. She didn't eat the meat, she just liked the feeling.
Grandma was so happy now that Lu Yi could only suppress the urge to explain things to her, but he also decided to find a time to explain some unfounded rumors and superstitions to her.
For example, if a pregnant woman eats rabbit meat, it may cause her baby to have a cleft lip.
Pregnant women eating mutton can cause fetal epilepsy.
Eating soy sauce during pregnancy will make the baby darker.
…
The key point is that an old lady who is good friends with grandma said that Zhizhi's belly is pointed, and it is most likely a boy. Lu Yi thinks he has to educate his grandma about scientific knowledge. How can a good girl be said to be a son? Grandma can't believe what others say.
