Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

Grandma Zhou held Shen Yao with both hands, and the two of them walked back and forth in the room.

If you really can't walk, don't force yourself, just sit down and rest.

Holding her belly lightly with both hands to ensure her body balance, Shen Yao turned around and complained to Grandma Zhou that she didn't know when she could officially give birth.

"It will be soon. In a few days, you will be able to see two beautiful, fair-skinned children."

Grandma Zhou knew that Shen Yao was pregnant with twins, but she didn't know the gender of the twins.

However, based on the ability of Shen Yao's biological mother Yuan Li, it is very likely that they will be twins, a boy and a girl.

Shen Yao listened to Grandma Zhou's well-reasoned analysis and thought that her grandma was quite amazing. She was able to accurately infer that she was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl, just by guessing.

"They say newborn babies are wrinkled and ugly, but grandma is lying."

It takes a long time to keep it clean and white. Even if the system takes action to adjust it, it cannot change the original form of the red monkey.

Grandma Zhou clapped her wrist and said, "Which baby is not wrinkled when it is born? It will return to normal in a few days.

We have all the necessary milk powder at home, as well as the meat tickets reserved for you, and some old hens that have been arranged long ago and you can take them back when you give birth.

I promise to raise you and your two children to be fat and healthy. When has grandma ever lied to you? "

Shen Yao listened to Grandma Zhou's words thoughtfully, and nodded her little head up and down.

Indeed, Grandma Zhou had never lied to her since she was a child, and she always did what she said. There was nothing she couldn't do.

Her beautiful eyebrows curved into crescent shapes, and Shen Yao couldn't help but act coquettishly as she hugged Grandma Zhou.

"Grandma~"

Grandma Zhou rolled her eyes with a hint of disdain, but she still brought Shen Yao her favorite malted milk, and put some nourishing herbs into the pot, simmering it over low heat to make soup.

Shen Yao sniffed, indicating that she was a little hungry.

"First, use some biscuits and steamed buns to fill your stomach and eat later."

Grandma Zhou touched her head and turned around to add some water to the pot.

Just as I finished opening the lid of the pot, someone started shouting outside the door and window.

The ladle was temporarily placed in the basin, and the pot lid was closed again in his hand.

Grandma Zhou leaned on the door handle and leaned out. After taking a few glances, she turned around and called Shen Yao, who was sitting in the room and feeling bored, to come and watch the fun.

Shen Yao:...Huh?

Shen Yao held her belly and walked unsteadily, but her eyes were sparkling. "Grandma!"

Grandma Zhou made a hushing gesture and whispered, "The Cheng family is making a fuss. Let's take a look secretly. Don't make any noise."

Shen Yao understood, and her little head nodded like she was pounding garlic, making a continuous thump thump sound.

The grandfather and grandson quickly reached an agreement and turned around, only secretly revealing their two pairs of eyes.

It was not only Shen Yao and her friends who made such moves. The Qian family opposite the Cheng family, the Zhao and Zhou families opposite the Xie family, and the Lin and Jin families living outside the gate, were all watching the fun secretly.

There's nothing we can do, since the Cheng family has been very popular in the hospital recently. After all, no one expected a fake pregnancy, but everyone took advantage of the upcoming New Year to get a big piece of the pie.

The story is complicated, but to make a long story short, Cheng Xue was not pregnant, but during the time when she thought she was pregnant, she made life difficult for Zhang Wang, her live-in son-in-law.

Zhang Wang spent a lot of money and effort, thinking that he could have a child, but in the end he got nothing.

As a result, Zhang Wang’s parents were unhappy and came to arrange for the two to divorce quickly. They also wanted the Cheng family to return all the money Zhang Wang had spent during this period.

As for the matter of the Cheng couple talking about the son-in-law giving a betrothal gift earlier, after being publicized by Zhang Wang's biological mother, it turned out that it was not true at all.

On the contrary, Zhang Wang put in two hundred yuan as a betrothal gift in order to marry Cheng Xue.

Considering the money that Zhang Wang had spent these days, the Cheng family was getting a bargain by paying 350 yuan.

The onlookers in the courtyard: …

Shen Yao asked Grandma Zhou what she thought about this matter, "Divorce should be unlikely."

The tone was a little hesitant. It was not to say whether Cheng Xue and Zhang Wang had a deep relationship, but that people in this era were more resistant to divorce. As long as there was no huge conflict, people would persuade them to reconcile rather than divorce.

It is better to destroy ten temples than to break up a marriage.

"No, the Zhang family came here to force the Cheng family to make concessions."

Grandma Zhou hit the nail on the head and completely understood the Zhang family’s purpose of coming here.

"Zhang Wang is a live-in son-in-law, but considering the expenses and the situation in the Cheng family, it makes sense to say he is marrying a daughter-in-law.

I guess the Zhang family is planning to turn the visit into a return home, and they want the child born by Cheng Xue to have the surname Zhang."

Grandma Zhou even felt that there was nothing wrong with the Zhang family's behavior.

All the bad things done by the Cheng family are used as evidence. As long as the Zhang family is not stupid, they will definitely take the benefits back.

Shen Yao nodded, thinking that even in the open modern society, not everyone is willing to let their child take the girl's name. Moreover, in this period of time, if a family has only girls, they have to worry about being wiped out. This shows the importance of surnames.

"If Cheng Xue's child really has to have the surname Zhang, then Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cheng will have worked in vain.

It would be better to find Qian Jiangang as a son-in-law. At least the Qian family and the Cheng family are in the same courtyard. I can see my daughter and grandchildren when I go out. It is better than living in the Zhang family."

Zhang Wang's home is opposite Fengshou Hutong, and it takes more than half an hour to get there by car.

Cheng Xuezhen became Zhang's daughter-in-law, and probably swapped her life with Zhang Wang's in the Cheng family.

Tut tut

Shen Yao couldn't help but sigh, it was really the law of cause and effect.

"Well, money can't buy early knowledge. It's the Cheng family who gave us the evidence first."

Grandma Zhou retracted her gaze, turned around and stretched out her hand to help Shen Yao into the house, "There is no figure to be seen anymore, let's wait until they have had enough fun before we talk."

Shen Yao looked away eagerly, "When can it be decided?"

I'm watching the show every day, but there's no result yet and she's about to give birth.

The baby's due date is in early to mid-January according to the Gregorian calendar.

Converted into this year's lunar calendar, it was exactly the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. After giving birth and returning home to recuperate after the baby was born, Shen Yao could still spend the New Year lying in bed.

"Qing, just wait, maybe after the New Year."

With this kind of tug-of-war, who knows when the result will come out?

Grandma Zhou signaled to Shen Yao to go to bed if she was tired, as she had to go back and cut the remaining cloth into paper diapers for babies.

They were all old clothes worn by the Xie family. They were ironed and washed in hot water and then processed.

As for new fabrics, babies cannot use new fabrics because they will get diaper rash.

Seeing her grandma busying herself, Shen Yao paused for a moment and simply lay down on the soft bed with her eyes closed to rest.

With the support provided by the bed, Shen Yao soon fell into a deep sleep.

……

As time entered 1970, the situation in the country became more serious.

Shen Yao's belly was so big that she couldn't even walk.

The belly was so big that Xie Ci'an was worried. Not only did he ask for leave in advance, he also went against everyone's opinion and sent Shen Yao to the hospital to give birth.

The hospital they went to was naturally the Municipal Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. Although it seemed a little out of place, Shen Yao's biological mother, grandmother and deceased grandfather were all from here. She would feel more comfortable in every way if she came here to give birth.

"Xiao Xie did the right thing. You should come and stay for a few days. At least it will be safer."

Yuan Li took some time out to visit the obstetrics and gynecology department and specifically asked the doctors there to take good care of her. Before leaving, she reminded Shen Yao to stay out as little as possible.

Shen Yao: ...Not moving at all, it's so boring just lying there.

"Be obedient, the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine has been in a turbulent time recently," Yuan Li muttered softly, and went to work in the pharmacy.

As soon as Yuan Li left, Shen Yao turned to look at Xie Ci'an and Grandma Zhou who were helping her make the bed and get her things. Well, these two were also very busy and had no time to pay attention to her at all.

She sat on a stool to rest with her belly in hand. After the bed was made with the bedding she brought, she simply took off her shoes and lay down on it.

"Grandma will go to the cafeteria to get you some food. Xiao Xie, you stay with Yaoyao first."

"Grandma, why don't I go instead?" The cafeteria of the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine was at the back, quite far away.

"No, no, I have a special ticket that can get me something good."

Grandma Zhou pushed Xie Ci'an and asked him to sit on the round stool and wait, and she would be back soon.

Xie Ci’an:…

Xie Ci'an watched Grandma Zhou leave with a breeze, then turned around and joked with Shen Yao about being disliked.

"Grandma is a hero of the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. I guarantee our lunch will be good."

Shen Yao chuckled, hugged her belly and half leaned back on the pillow to relax.

Xie Ci'an raised his eyebrows and glanced across the slightly empty room, "I can tell."

Grandma Zhou has more face in the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine than my mother-in-law, and even the old man at the door greets her with a smile.

The young couple waited in the room, but instead of seeing Grandma Zhou come back, they saw another pregnant woman who moved in.

Judging from her clothes, she comes from a well-off family, and her figure hasn't changed much due to pregnancy.

This man lived directly in the bed next to Shen Yao and went in and out near the door.

Shen Yao was closer to the window. There was a white curtain between the two of them, leaving a space for a pedestrian walkway.

It was broad daylight and the white curtain was definitely not drawn, so the two of them nodded to each other face to face as a greeting.

A little later, Grandma Zhou came in with two lunch boxes in her arms and a thermos in her hand.

"Come on, Xiao Xie, set the table, it's time for us to have lunch."

Grandma Zhou greeted them and placed everything in her hands on the newly erected small Eight Immortals Table on the bed with a smile.

The lunch box and thermos were opened, and the aroma of chicken soup instantly filled the whole room.

Shen Yao's eyes sparkled. She took the chicken soup and brought it to her mouth, then gulped it down.

"Grandma"

Shen Yao gave Grandma Zhou a thumbs up and she really admired her own grandma.

Awesome

"Eat more. Only when you are full and well-fed can you have a baby."

Grandma Zhou continued to add food to Shen Yao's bowl, while Xie Ci'an, who was standing aside, just took care of himself.

"Um, Auntie, I want to ask, where did you buy this chicken soup?"

The three people who were eating looked up at the same time and saw a middle-aged man asking them about the chicken soup they were drinking with an awkward look on his face.

Grandma Zhou wiped her mouth and asked the man to bring the bowl over with a smile, "There's still some left, give it to your wife. It's a little late for you to buy it now, and the cafeteria is closed.

You have to bring the materials to the cafeteria and ask for them, and then just pay a little more for the labor fee."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he first thanked Grandma Zhou, then asked for a bowl of soup for his wife with a little embarrassment. He then turned around and stuffed half a bag of brown sugar into Grandma Zhou's pocket.

"My husband and I have no elderly people to help us, and my wife is pregnant with her first child.

Auntie, thank you for your help these days. Thank you so much. "

The middle-aged man's speech sounded a bit awkward, as if he was speaking in an official tone.

Shen Yao looked at the other person with strange eyes, and turned her head to guess with Xie Ci'an that this person must be a leader and his official position was not low.

Grandma Zhou said she was too polite, but she didn't forget to take the brown sugar.

She went over and greeted the man's wife with a smile on her face. Grandma Zhou also gave her a few handfuls of dried dates that she had brought from home.

"Use it as a daily snack. Your lips are a little pale, so you need to replenish your blood."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he hurriedly asked Grandma Zhou what else could replenish qi and blood. "My wife is a little anemic, and she often drinks brown sugar water but it doesn't work."

Grandma Zhou suggested eating some animal livers, "as long as there is enough oil and water and no fishy smell.

Besides, pregnancy itself is hard for pregnant women, so brown sugar water, jujubes, and walnuts are all good for nourishment.”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "I'll go home and get some this afternoon."

He didn't think the things Grandma Zhou mentioned were valuable at all. He even wanted to buy an old hen and make chicken soup for his wife in the evening.

"Aunt, I'll buy a big one so we can all have a hot drink."

"That's good. The young man looks energetic. I can tell from your wife's complexion that she has taken good care of herself during the pregnancy."

Pregnant women will have some problems, big or small, like the qi and blood problems that Grandma Zhou mentioned. If they are not serious, they are just minor problems, unless extreme anemia threatens life.

After hearing what Grandma Zhou said, the man smiled so much that his whole face lit up.

The two looked to be about 20 years apart in age, but they were still chatting animatedly.

By the time the man went out, the way he addressed Grandma Zhou had changed from Aunt to Sister Zhou.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao looked at Xie Ci'an helplessly, thinking that her grandma was really capable.

In such a short period of time, I have made a sworn brother.

"Just lie down and put away the leftovers. Grandma will buy you something delicious in the evening."

Grandma Zhou turned around and gave some instructions to Shen Yao, then expressed concern for her new brothers and sisters-in-law. After asking about the expected date of delivery, she did not forget to share the diapers she had made with them.

Shen Yao performed very well in this regard. Even though Grandma Zhou took out a lot of things from her own home and gave them away, Shen Yao was still casual and comfortable, not petty at all, and was very emotionally stable.

Cui Yuxi, the adopted brother and sister who was cared for by Grandma Zhou, was flattered.

I didn't expect that I would just go to the hospital to give birth to a child normally, but end up bringing back a godparent for my family.

Although the two parties did not know each other, they got along well, not to mention that the other party's things touched Cui Yuxi's heart.

Cui Yuxi called the middle-aged man "Sister Zhou" all the time, and she and the middle-aged man were indeed a couple.

Grandma Zhou enjoyed it very much, at least on the surface, and she asked Cui Yuxi to explain various matters related to post-pregnancy.

The middle-aged man who just left, Huang Zhipeng, Grandma Zhou's sworn brother, said that the two of them had no elders to help them, and it was his wife's first pregnancy, so they must not have mastered the relevant knowledge.

This happened to be Grandma Zhou's home court. As a woman with rich experience, Grandma Zhou was like a walking humanoid machine. She said everything that could be said and could not be said. Cui Yuxi felt grateful and embarrassed when she heard it.

They were grateful that Grandma Zhou helped them a lot, but they felt sorry for making a fool of themselves before. Fortunately, Grandma Zhou provided them with scientific knowledge in time.
