Chapter 209 Twins
After hearing He's footsteps leaving, Gu Yunyi turned over and hugged Xu Qingmeng from behind.
"My wife."
He buried his head in Xu Qingmeng's shoulder and spoke in a soft voice.
Xu Qingmeng was annoyed and slapped Gu Yunyi on the face like she was slapping a mosquito.
"Sleepy, don't bother me."
"Okay, I won't make any noise. You can sleep for a while."
He kissed her hair gently, then tiptoed out of bed.
After closing the door, his steps became much quicker.
He was serving dishes, and when she saw Gu Yunyi approaching, she asked, "Where's Meng Niang?"
Gu Yunyi scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I drank too much yesterday and was busy for a long time. Meng Niang is still sleepy."
"Look at you, you know you've drunk too much, but you don't even think about what Meng Niang's condition is like now. You have such a low alcohol tolerance, and you're still dragging Meng Niang down."
"Okay, I've got it." Gu Yunyi nodded. Even though he was drunk, he still remembered it.
Xu Qingmeng was quite patient with him when he was drunk, and she didn't have any defenses. She took advantage of him as much as she could. If she wasn't pregnant...
Thinking of this, Gu Yunyi laughed foolishly.
“Bang!”
He stretched out his hand and slapped him on the head.
"Laugh, laugh, you feel happy about tormenting your wife!" He cursed and went back to the kitchen instead of going to the dining room.
Gu Yunyi suppressed the smile on his face, then followed He into the kitchen with a puzzled look on his face.
"Mom, aren't we already eating? Why are you bringing it to the kitchen again?"
"Meng Niang hasn't woken up yet, so we have to leave some in the pot for her, otherwise it will get cold later."
That's right! Why am I so stupid!
Xu Xinting fried four dishes, and the staple food was steamed buns made by Xinting.
He took out some of the four dishes and placed them on a plate. The water in the pot was still hot as it was used to steam buns.
Vegetables and steamed buns can be kept warm for a while by placing them on the grate.
After finishing all this, I started preparing for dinner.
While eating, Gu Yunyi told He about buying the person.
After all, it had been mentioned before, and He had no objection.
"You decide!"
"Um."
After dinner, Gu Yunyi calculated the time and found that Xinting had already gone to the kitchen to add another fire.
"Mom, I'll bring the food to the room. Meng Niang must be hungry."
Gu Yunyi carried the hot dishes and steamed buns and went to the inner courtyard.
When Gu Yunyi pushed the door open, Xu Qingmeng was already up.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer? I've already brought the food."
Xu Qingmeng rolled his eyes at him and said, "What the hell is going on sleeping? It's already so late."
"If I don't eat it, the one in my stomach will eat it too!"
Gu Yunyi knew he was in the wrong and didn't dare to say anything.
"Yes, yes! Madam, it's all my fault."
Xu Qingmeng was too lazy to pay attention to him, so she sat aside and started eating.
While Xu Qingmeng was eating, Gu Yunyi told her about looking for someone.
"Mom, do you agree?"
"certainly."
After Xu Qingmeng finished eating, Gu Yunyi waited for her to wash up briefly before the two of them came out together.
He had finished her work in the kitchen. Gu Yunyi washed the dishes that Xu Qingmeng had eaten himself, while Xu Qingmeng went to the hall in the outer courtyard.
"Mother...Aunt."
"Meng Niang is up. Is she feeling well? It's been a few months now. Is she about to give birth?" Aunt Li said gently.
"No, auntie, it's only seven months."
"Seven months, isn't that a bit big?"
He hadn't paid much attention to it before, but now after hearing Aunt Li talk about it, she also felt that it was a little big.
I've also heard that other ladies try their best to nourish themselves when they are pregnant. They eat a lot and drink a lot, so their stomachs will naturally become much bigger. However, since Xu Qingmeng lost weight, there is no fat anywhere else on her body.
Later they discovered that it seemed that only her belly was a little too big. She had been fat before, so He didn't take it seriously.
I am a little worried that this will be brought up.
"Could it be twins?" He said, looking at Xu Qingmeng's belly.
After all, Yun Sheng and Yun Mo are twins, so He thinks it is possible.
Xu Qingmeng actually knew about it, but she pretended not to know and asked, "Are these twins? Can the doctor tell?"
If this happened in modern times, there would be no need to worry too much, a color ultrasound would be enough, but in this era, it may not be possible to tell the truth just by taking the pulse.
If it could really be seen, she had not heard anyone say it when she saw the doctor these days.
"It's not something that an ordinary doctor can tell when you have twins. When I was pregnant with Yun Sheng and Yun Mo, I didn't know until they were born. Ordinary doctors can only treat common diseases. By the way, the last time you came to the capital, the doctor that Yun Yi said he took you to see, did he say anything?" He asked.
"No." Xu Qingmeng shook his head.
"Maybe Doctor Liu can help. Doctor Liu's father used to be an imperial physician in the capital," said Aunt Li.
"Really? Where is your sister-in-law? I'll ask Doctor Liu to come over and take a look."
"I'll take you there, but Doctor Liu is usually very busy, so I don't know if it will work?" Aunt Li said.
"It's okay, give it a try."
After saying this, He followed Aunt Li out. Unfortunately, she was not invited over.
Doctor Liu was out seeing patients and was not here at all.
Aunt Li said apologetically, "You made this trip in vain."
"What are you talking about, sister-in-law?"
After hearing this, Gu Yunyi said, "Aunt, I've troubled you a lot. Really, single or twin babies are fine."
"That's right."
Afterwards, they chatted for a while and mentioned that they wanted to go and see a shop. Aunt Li asked in surprise, "Are you planning to open a shop to make a living? The yards in this city are not cheap."
Aunt Li thought about it and felt that it was no big deal. After all, she was able to buy such a big yard when she just arrived in the capital, so buying a shop would not be a big deal.
"After all, a shop is a long-term business. Even if it's not cheap, you can get through it by gritting your teeth. As long as you can make money in the future, that's fine," said He.
"That's right. It's not a good idea to live off the savings. Then what do you want to do?" Aunt Li asked.
"I haven't decided yet. I think it will be something related to food. My wife Meng is a good cook. But I'll just take a look first. After all, the baby is about to be born."
"Really? Are you planning to find a shop on Poplar Street?"
Baiyang Street is the street closest to Gu's yard and has a very large flow of people.
Xu Qingmeng’s first choice was of course this place. He thought so too, but was afraid that the rent was too high.
Aunt Li was amazed. It seemed that the Gu family was not short of money!
Thinking of this, the smile on his face became even kinder.
