Chapter 160 Pregnancy
The night is deep.
Chen Ling lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He usually fell asleep by touching the pillow, but today he didn't feel sleepy at all.
My daughter-in-law is finally pregnant.
The guy was so excited, his face was rosy, and he walked like a breeze. He should cook a good meal for his wife in the evening. He was so happy that he forgot about time, and the meal was mushy.
But he still ate happily and ate two more steamed buns than usual.
"It feels like a dream, we are going to have a baby too."
"Yeah."
"Susu, pinch me."
“Ouch, it hurts, it’s real.”
"Hahaha..."
"Keep your voice down, don't wake Zhenzhen up."
Wang Susu said angrily.
Although the night was very late, she could not sleep. Her heart felt warm and filled with happiness.
Following her husband, when he asked a question, she responded softly.
Ask her to pinch her arm, and she will pinch it gently.
Chen Ling didn't know how many times he asked her and asked her to pinch him from the afternoon till now.
Neither of them felt bored.
Chen Ling grinned in a silly manner.
In fact, Wang Susu was also very happy, even happier than Chen Ling.
She had been looking forward to having sex with Chen Ling, and this time she finally got her wish.
In the past, as long as Chen Ling was not at home, she was reluctant to eat anything good.
In the past two days, for the first time, I have added two more eggs to each meal and put more oil in my cooking.
"Sister Qiumei said that the pregnancy test at the county hospital is very accurate. Let's go for a test tomorrow."
"Okay."
"Hey, by the way, what's the matter with her? As soon as I came back, I saw her washing Zhenzhen's hair at home, and also helping you wash your clothes?"
"Sister Qiumei has been busy working across the street these two days. She was not in good health. She was said to have been brought from her mother's womb. She fainted at noon the day before yesterday. There was no one at Guoping's house that day, so I helped her to our house and gave her a look..."
"Oh, my wife can still see a doctor, it's really amazing."
Chen Ling supported her head, leaned over and kissed her delicate and smooth face.
“No way, I can’t do it, I’m still far from it.”
The young wife glanced at him lightly, shook her head, and blushed on her face.
"It's not even close. This time when we went into the mountains, the medicine you prepared was much better than what they brought. Even the old hunters in Kinmen Village boasted about it."
"Nonsense. , you will make me happy.”
“Hey, don’t believe it, I’m telling you, it’s very dangerous for us to go into the mountains this time, and we’ll encounter some dog pickpockets. It's so fierce..."
Chen Ling reached out and took his wife into his arms and said softly.
One spoke vividly and the other listened carefully. As the night grew darker, their voices gradually became lower and lower.
...The next day, the two of them went out early in the morning. After driving their sister-in-law to school in a bullock cart, they went to the county hospital for a urine test.
The result was as expected, she was pregnant.
In fact, there had been signs of this happening for a long time, but Wang Susu was not sure and kept hiding it from Chen Ling.
I’m afraid that if I tell you, I won’t get pregnant, and then I’ll be happy in vain.
Two days ago, she had a reaction in her body, and it became more and more intense, so she couldn't help but let Sister Xiufen take a look. She also asked Chen Guoping's opinion, and both of them said that she was most likely pregnant.
But I dare not guarantee it.
After all, this is the couple’s first child.
Knowing that Wang Susu valued her, they didn't dare to tell her the truth, and they helped her hide it and didn't tell anyone.
After going to the county hospital for a checkup today, Wang Susu finally felt at ease.
Chen Ling was even more delighted.
When he came, although he had already confirmed that he had a wife, he was still as nervous as fetching water from fifteen buckets.
Now I can put my heart in my stomach.
"We are also about to have a baby..."
People are in high spirits during happy events. Chen Ling was waving his whip and humming a tune all the way, and he couldn't hide his face. of joy.
"Hush!"
Halfway through the mountain road and crossing the last ridge, the road is extremely difficult to walk.
Chen Ling was afraid of jolting his wife, so he held her in his arms. At the same time, he called the little white cow to stop and told it to walk slowly and steadily.
“Moo——”
The little white cow had been warned once when he came, so he naturally knew what was going on.
He immediately let out a long and meaningful cry in response.
Stepping gently, pulling the car slowly.
"There is no need for such a Ling, I am not that rich."
Wang Susu felt that he was making too much fuss.
When I was not pregnant with the baby before, it almost hurt when I held her in my hands.
Now it's even more exaggerated.
It made her a little uncomfortable.
After all, she is not a squeamish woman and can do all kinds of rough and tiring work.
She had never seen people in the past working in the fields even when they were pregnant.
"Why not? In my opinion, you are the most precious. Besides, you are twins now and you still have a baby bump in your belly. You are all my lifeblood..."
Chen Ling kissed his wife on the face and hugged her tighter.
Wang Susu felt happy and helpless at the same time.
"This is just now, and I haven't shown my feelings yet."
"No, you have to take it seriously even if you don't show your feelings. You have to listen to me."
Chen Ling heard this. Staring, he said confidently.
Back in the village, they didn't hide it this time.
The news that Wang Susu was pregnant spread quickly.
This is terrible.
As soon as Chen Ling, who was close friends, heard about this, he came running over in a swarm.
The ladies gathered around Wang Susu to greet her.
Talking about what to pay attention to at this time, what to pay attention to in two months, and what to avoid, the whole yard was bustling with excitement.
The men clamored for Chen Ling to buy him a drink.
"Let's talk, let's talk, Fugui, you will definitely not be able to escape this drink."
"That is, you are not willing to give us a drink now, and you have to give birth to a baby. I’ll set up two tables, and if you’re not satisfied with the drinks, I’ll come to your house every day to eat, which will annoy your child to death.”
“Haha, it’s hard to say. I’ll make it as big as I want. The door of my house is at the entrance of the village, and I will hold my baby and drink with you..."
Chen Ling laughed loudly. His smile never stopped today. He scattered the cigarettes for the men and lit them himself. The group puffed away the smoke and stood outside the door talking and laughing.
When it was time to eat, everyone left in droves without disturbing us.
Leave a message before leaving.
Let Chen Ling stay at home with his wife these two days. After they sell the prey, they will send him the money so that he can stop worrying about it.
Chen Ling agreed at first.
But after counting the days, there will be a big gathering in the village tomorrow.
He immediately thought about it.
I am going to go with him to find the mule and horse broker in Lao Ba Tou and ask him to help find two ewes with babies.
Buy it and keep it at home to produce milk to support your daughter-in-law.
Goat milk is a good nourishing food, and its nutrition is much higher than that of cow's milk.
The reason is that cows are picky about grass and like to eat one type of grass. Over time, the milk they produce becomes nutritionally unbalanced.
Sheep are different. They eat all kinds of grass, whether it is weeds or crop leaves, they are not picky about anything. The milk produced in this way is very nutritious and has higher nutrition than cow's milk. It is suitable for pregnant women to replenish their bodies.
But you also need to pay attention. Ordinary people cannot drink too much. Unlike milk, which is warm and cool in nature, drinking too much goat milk can cause internal heat. People with poor physical constitution can also cause inflammation, swelling and pain in certain parts of the body.
Pregnant women have two bodies. In addition to themselves, they also need to nurture the fetus. They have high nutritional needs, so drinking goat milk is the most suitable.
In fact, Chen Ling also understood.
The things in his cave were enough, but he had no choice but to let him experience the joy of becoming a father for the first time in his life, so he wanted to give all the good things to his wife. Prepare.
He is not afraid of more, he is afraid of something missing.
And he also took over all the household chores, including laundry and cooking.
Wang Susu’s persuasion was useless, she couldn’t defeat him.
"Hei Wa, look how dirty you are, let's go and take you to the reservoir to take a bath."
Chen Ling felt better, rubbed Hei Wa's big head, said hello and went out with the fishing net. .
Seeing him like this, Hei Wa tilted his head and glanced at him in confusion.
It is very energetic on weekdays and can't settle down at all. Every other day it will feel uncomfortable if it doesn't make a fuss, so it always gets into trouble, and being beaten and scolded is a common occurrence.
It was rare to see Chen Ling show a good face towards him today, and he was still a little uncomfortable with it.
But a fool is a fool. When he heard that Chen Ling was going to take him to take a bath, he excitedly "oooo, oooh" and imitated the wolf howl and rushed out of the house.
"Fugui, if you are not at home guarding your wife, why are you hanging out?"
"Go fishing in the reservoir and make some fish soup to drink at night."
"Hahaha, Let me tell you, after all, you still love your wife. This time, you can just go out and cook the delicious food. No one will talk about you. "
"..."
Everyone said hello to him on the way out. They all knew that Wang Susu was pregnant and that his family was about to have a new baby. After seeing him, they all stopped him and said nothing to him.
Country people don't say congratulations, but you can feel it from their enthusiasm. Some people give Chen Ling cigarettes, and some help him pack up his eagle boat.
"In a few days, the corns in the fields will be ready to eat. Whenever Susu wants to eat them, just go to my field and skim a few stalks back to cook."
"I got it. Uncle, you can go if you want to eat. "
When they arrived at the reservoir, Chen Ling gave the dog a bath first, then cast two nets on his eagle boat and caught a few big fish.
This time, under the guise of fishing in the reservoir, he planned to kill two red eels from Dongtian.
After catching the fish, I thought about it and went to Laohewan to catch two old turtles and take them home.
This is not enough.
According to Wang Susu's usual taste, she picked two bags full of sweet and sour fruits such as wild hawthorns, pomegranates, and August melons in the cave.
After preparing the meal, give it to Wang Susu as a snack, or squeeze it into juice and drink it.
Finally, when I went back, I went to Chen Guoping's house and asked Sister-in-law Xiufen.
This is when I discovered that there are many things that pregnant women cannot eat.
For example, wild hawthorn is sour and suitable for pregnant women, but it is actually harmful to the body of pregnant women.
Although it was wild hawthorn produced in Dongtian, Chen Ling did not dare to use it anymore just to be on the safe side.
In addition, the old turtle is also caught in vain. Although the nutritional value of the old turtle is not low, it is cold in nature, and cold food will increase the risk of miscarriage.
So only pomegranates, wild cherries, wild grapes and other categories were left.
Pomegranates and wild grapes are best.
Not only does it have a good effect on promoting fetal brain development, wild grapes can also help pregnant women reduce adverse reactions and produce more milk. It is a good product for nourishing fetal milk.
......
"How about it, how does this eel taste? Does it still taste good?"
At night, dinner was ready, and Chen Ling cooked three dishes and one soup and put it on the table.
The staple food is rice, and the dishes are two meat and one vegetable.
There are braised eel segments made from red eel, braised venison, mushrooms and dried bamboo shoots.
There are also fried winter melons.
The soup is stewed with deer bones, offal, and tendons. It contains lotus seeds, wolfberry, and some warm herbs. It is stewed on low heat for half a day.
"It's delicious, fragrant and tender. It's better than what you made before."
Wang Susu took a piece of eel and tasted it, and was very surprised.
“This eel has very few thorns and is full of meat. Was it also caught from Laohewan?”
“It was caught from Laohewan. If you want to eat it, I will give it to you tomorrow. You catch two. Come and eat a piece of venison.”
“Well——”
"Venison is also delicious. It's so fragrant. It's more fragrant than badger meat."
After eating this and that, Chen Ling put the food on the table and didn't bother to eat it. He let his wife taste it first. All over.
Wang Zhenzhen was nearby, darting wildly with his eyes, and said nothing. He watched the young couple struggling for a while, and finally couldn't help covering his mouth and snickering.
Chen Ling blushed when he saw this and glared at her: "Why are you laughing? Go and do your homework after dinner."
"Humph, my sister has a baby and she has been hiding it. Look at me, I already knew it.”
Wang Zhenzhen raised her face and snorted, stood up and went to serve the meal herself.
“You didn’t tell her?”
Chen Ling suddenly asked strangely.
Wang Susu shook her head. Her sister was still young, so there was no need to go out of her way to tell her this.
They didn’t go to the hospital for a checkup in the past two days, and they didn’t tell anyone.
Even when Qin Qiumei came to visit, she didn't tell the little girl in front of her.
"Zhenzhen, I will go to the countryside to attend a big market tomorrow. Is there anything you want to buy?"
"I don't want to buy anything, you can buy it for my sister."
The little girl took a mouthful of rice and smiled at Wang Susu.
"Sister, when are we going home? Your parents will be happy if they know you have a baby."
Hearing this, Wang Susu pinched her little nose and glanced at Chen Ling: "I'll be back in a while, waiting for your brother-in-law to finish his family affairs."
"What's wrong, are you homesick?"
"Well...I don't want to think about it now. I might wait another two months..."
"Silly girl."
"Eat quickly. Your brother-in-law cooked so many dishes.”
...Wang Zhenzhen finished her meal quickly and went back to her room to do her homework.
She doesn’t have a big appetite, and there are still a lot of dishes on the table.
"Susu, drink the remaining deer offal soup. This is good stuff."
The deer offal soup is very clear, and it is not cloudy even if it is stewed for a long time. , take a sip and put it in your mouth, but it is very delicious. The deer tendons are soft, crispy and fragrant, smooth and elastic, and have enough gelatin.
Chen Ling worked hard to deal with it, but there was no fishy smell.
It's just that Wang Susu ate too much. Now that she was pregnant, her appetite didn't change much, so she couldn't eat anymore soon.
In the end, more than half of it went into Chen Ling's own stomach.
After dinner, Chen Ling rushed to wash the dishes.
This time Wang Susu refused to let him go. When Chen Ling was about to say something, Su Su knew that she couldn't persuade him, so she walked up to him and blocked his mouth with her soft red lips. What did Chen Ling do? I can't speak anymore.
I just thought happily: It’s good that my daughter-in-law is pregnant, and the old couple is more proactive than before.
"Stop standing here, go to sleep, I can do anything now."
Wang Susu pushed him out with a blushing face.
"Then you use hot water."
"I know."
Actually, it was Chen Ling who was too nervous. He was going to be a father for the first time in his life, so The guy is really cautious in everything, for fear of doing something wrong.
This is the disadvantage of not having elders in the family.
I have no experience in this kind of thing, so I have to ask others for everything.
But fortunately, slowly, the young couple got used to it.
Wang Susu is indeed not a delicate woman.
And the body bones that have been nourished by the cave for more than half a year are not comparable to those of ordinary women. Just like what she said, she can still do any kind of work.
Moreover, the reaction she experienced was much weaker than that of other pregnant women.
This was one of the reasons why she didn't dare to be too convinced at the beginning.
