When Mu Yi'an could feel the baby moving, she received the specific time that Jiang Qi and the others were coming.
"Shuyun, Jiang Qi and the others are coming. They've finished dealing with everything in the county."
Mu Yi'an received a letter from Jiang Qi and the others, which stated that she would board the ship at the county dock on the eighth day of the tenth month.
"Really? I feel much more at ease now. With Jiang Qi here, you'll have someone to talk to. And with Dr. Chu here, I feel even more at ease."
Jiang Shuyun and the others still habitually call him Dr. Chu, rather than "brother-in-law," stemming from the allure of the doctor's profession.
"They'll set off on the eighth day. When that time comes, have Wei San take a few guards and drive a carriage to the dock to pick them up. I think Master Wan will also send someone to pick them up. We'll also send a few people and a carriage, and we can move everything in one trip."
Mu Yi'an knows all too well how troublesome moving can be.
"You can make the arrangements, and let Butler Li take care of it."
Jiang Shuyun still didn't want Yi An to be too busy; the less she had to worry about, the better.
"ah!"
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Shuyun looked at Mu Yi'an nervously, wondering why he had suddenly called out.
"Shuyun, I feel him move."
Who moved it?
Jiang Shuyun didn't understand what she meant. There were only the two of them in the room, and no one else was there.
"Baby, the baby in your belly is moving."
Mu Yi'an felt that Jiang Shuyun had become stupid. Ever since Mu Yi'an became pregnant, Jiang Shuyun had become stupid.
"Really? I want to touch it too, and see how it moves."
"Oh dear, it's broad daylight, someone might come in soon."
Mu Yi'an sat on the couch. The academy was closed today, and Jiang Shuyun was at home during the day.
"It's okay, I'm not going to put my hand inside your clothes, I'm just feeling it through your clothes."
Jiang Shuyun sat next to Yi An, gently placing her hand on Yi An's stomach, and could feel that her belly had grown bigger.
"Why didn't I feel him move? Is it your intestines moving?"
Jiang Shuyun touched it for a long time but couldn't feel anything.
"Impossible, I clearly felt my stomach move, it was very obvious."
Mu Yi'an firmly believed that her feeling was correct; the baby had moved. Moreover, she was already four or five months pregnant, and under normal circumstances, she should be able to feel the baby's movements.
In her past life, when her colleague in the office was pregnant, she said that the baby would start moving in her belly around four or five months into the pregnancy, and she remembered it very clearly.
"Really, it's not intestinal peristalsis?"
Jiang Shuyun was skeptical, but she didn't remove her hand from Yi'an's stomach.
"It's real, even more real than real gold!"
Mu Yi'an leaned back against the cushions on the couch. Now, after sitting for a while, her back started to ache.
"It moved! It moved! It really moved! I felt like it kicked me. Now, they have legs, right?"
Jiang Shuyun also felt the movement under her palm, as if she had been kicked by something.
"It's grown, isn't it? I remember that when pregnant women have a 4D ultrasound at four months, they can see if the baby has any defects. Doesn't that mean that all the parts of the body have grown? Otherwise, what are they looking for?"
Mu Yi'an wasn't sure either; she'd only occasionally heard colleagues mention it, saying that the various prenatal checkups during pregnancy were quite torturous. Especially the cognitive aspect—if the baby wasn't cooperating and wouldn't roll over, she had to keep walking around to get him to turn over so she could see all his parts.
"That's right. The child can move around and is quite lively, so he must be a healthy child."
"Absolutely, as long as they are healthy, we ask for nothing more."
Mu Yi'an's only wish now is for her child to be born healthy. A peaceful and happy life, growing up happily, would also be a blessing.
"All parents start with the same wish: for their children to be healthy. However, as children are born and grow up, parents' wishes change."
Hoping for a well-behaved and sensible child, hoping for academic excellence, hoping for mastering many skills… these wishes have turned into desires.
In her past life, many of the high school students taught by Jiang Shuyun were actually being pushed forward by their parents, studying hard to fulfill their parents' wishes.
"That's true. What I fear most is not being able to control my desires, whether it's for myself or for my children."
Mu Yi'an silently prayed that she would never become like those parents.
The first time they felt the baby move, both of them had many feelings.
After the first fetal movement, the baby in the womb moved more and more frequently.
Shao Ming, Shao Yun, and Chu Yue also felt the movements of their younger siblings in their mother's belly, and they all found it very novel.
Time flies, and Jiang Qi and the others will be arriving today.
Butler Li arranged for someone to pick them up at the dock, and Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were also looking forward to it.
At the Fucheng Wharf, the ship slowly docked, where Wei San and his men were already waiting.
The people sent by the Wan family have also arrived, and they are all waiting for Doctor Chu and his group to arrive.
The ship docked, and the entire pier erupted in excitement.
Jiang Qi and the others didn't rush to leave. There were many of them and a lot of stuff, so they waited until everyone else had finished getting off. Otherwise, with so many people, accidents could easily happen.
Jiang Qi and the wet nurse were responsible for taking care of the two children; the officials were responsible for everything else.
"We'll be off the ship soon, and things will be better once we get home. You three didn't rest well on the ship, and you all look pale."
"This is my first time traveling far from home, and my first time on a boat. I feel quite dizzy."
Jiang Qi said that she felt not only physically dizzy, but also mentally.
How big is the prefectural city? Are there many people? Are Master, Mistress, and Husband's fellow disciples easy to get along with? Since boarding the ship, Jiang Qi has been thinking about all sorts of things.
Finally, she comforted herself, telling herself not to be afraid, because her second sister-in-law was there.
