Chapter 147 Why are you making such a fuss?
For Zhou Ruoyu, she had never experienced being a mother in her two lives, and having children was not part of her plan after coming here.
Even if Zhou Ruoyu, who lived more than fifty years later, was already a golden bachelor in his late twenties, the word "children" did not yet exist in his life plan. Moreover, in this era of food and drink shortage, a girl under the age of nineteen had to play the role of a mother.
Morning sickness not only caused her great physical discomfort, but also great psychological pressure.
After vomiting, she often felt helpless and exhausted. Not only did she begin to doubt her life, she even hoped that God would give her another chance to travel to any space.
The arrival of this life in her belly was definitely an accident for Zhou Ruoyu, and she used the person who caused this accident as a punching bag. In less than two months, Lu Qinchuan got the nickname of a henpecked husband.
Lu Qinchuan is always busy on weekdays, but as soon as he gets home, the smile on his face is especially bright.
She transformed into a hardworking little bee and took on all the housework of washing, cooking and cleaning without hesitation.
In his spare time, his favorite thing to do is to quietly read the book called "Encyclopedia of Ten Months of Pregnancy", and then he will practice the methods described in the book meticulously.
It has to be said that although Zhou Ruoyu's morning sickness did not get significantly relieved due to his meticulous care, psychologically, she gradually began to accept the new life in her belly.
It felt like finding a ray of light in the darkness, and an inexplicable warmth welled up in her heart. She actually began to feel a sense of mission to stand with her child.
At the same time, Zhou Shufen also carried Zhu Laosan in front of Zhou Ruoyu all day long. The chubby appearance of the little guy always attracted Zhou Ruoyu's attention.
Looking at Zhu Laosan's adorable little face, Zhou Ruoyu's heart couldn't help but ripple. She thought of the little life in her belly that was about to come into the world. Gradually, she stopped being so willful and complaining as she was at the beginning, and learned to face everything with a peaceful heart.
When no one was around, she would stroke her still flat belly like other pregnant mothers and gently say, "How are you? I'm your mother..."
Then she looked around, pursed her lips and smiled shyly.
One day in the third month, she woke up early and didn't feel the nausea and vomiting she'd expected. She felt a little puzzled, but after a while, she still didn't feel anything.
Lu Qinchuan brought a basin of warm water to the bedside. Seeing her trying to gather her strength, he said, "Feeling bad again? I'll get you some mouthwash."
"Hey, why don't I feel like throwing up today?"
Zhou Ruoyu tried to think about it for a long time but didn't feel like vomiting. She looked at him with wide eyes, her heart filled with fear.
Lu Qinchuan was also panicked by her look, and hurriedly comforted her: "It's not time yet, you got up ten minutes early today."
Having said that, he sat down on the bed and reached under his pillow to pull out the "Encyclopedia of Ten Months of Pregnancy". The book recorded the reactions and coping measures that should be taken for each month.
He licked his fingers with his tongue, then used his saliva-covered fingers to turn the pages of the book. Zhou Ruoyu saw all of his movements in one breath. She felt a chill in her neck and a churning in her stomach. Finally, Lu Qinchuan's action caused her discomfort and made her react.
Well, no need to read anymore, the reaction that was supposed to come finally came. Lu Qinchuan took a long step and caught up with Zhou Ruoyu in two or three steps. He took the basin before her and placed it in front of her.
"Wow!" she spat out a mouthful of yellow water, followed by a bout of dry heaving. Patting her back gently, Lu Qinchuan said with a smile, "I don't know if you find me disgusting or if the child finds me disgusting."
After vomiting, Zhou Ruoyu felt relaxed both physically and mentally, no longer feeling sick as before. Instead, her stomach felt flat for no reason, and she was hungry.
"I'm hungry and want to eat some porridge." Zhou Ruoyu finally wanted to eat for the first time in her life.
Countless fireworks blossomed in his heart, and Lu Qinchuan was as happy as a child: "Okay, okay, I've already cooked it. I'll bring it to you."
After eating and drinking, Zhou Ruoyu had another long sleep.
When she woke up again, she still didn't feel nauseous or vomit. Zhou Ruoyu suddenly felt a chill. She grabbed Lu Qinchuan, who was also resting with his eyes closed, and asked, "Why is the baby in my belly not tormenting me?"
"It's not good enough if I don't torment you. If I do, I'll be ready to beat him up when he comes out!"
Lu Qinchuan squinted his eyes and pulled her into his arms again. It was so beautiful to hug his soft and tender wife on a winter weekend.
"No!" Zhou Ruoyu punched him on the chest. "He suddenly stopped responding. Could it be..."
She didn't dare to say those words, but her panicked eyes and frightened tone told Lu Qinchuan that the child might be gone...
Lu Qinchuan's hand fell on the Complete Guide to Ten Months of Pregnancy. In a panic, he wanted to find the answer in the book, but Zhou Ruoyu grabbed him and said, "I'm scared. I want to go to the hospital!"
Without saying a word, Lu Qinchuan took her to the hospital.
The female doctor gently tapped the tip of her pen on the table. "Captain Lu, didn't you read the book I asked you to read? Three or four months is when morning sickness disappears, so why are you making such a fuss?"
As they were talking, another doctor came out from the inner room with Zhou Ruoyu and said with a smile, "Everything is normal, the fetus is healthy. You're already so old, why are you still so flustered?"
When she said this, her eyes swept across Lu Qinchuan's face, obviously blaming him.
"According to the age on your household registration, you're only nineteen after the Lunar New Year. It's normal for you to be young and not understand these things. At this time, you, as a husband, need more comfort. A husband's love is the best medicine, you know?"
Lu Qinchuan raised an eyebrow. He could hear from the female doctor's words that they were an old man and a young wife. He touched his face and wanted to retort, but he didn't expect that the female doctor's next words made him lose his temper.
"We should show more care in daily life and be more careful about sex, not too intense."
The female doctor added in a serious tone, but Lu Qinchuan felt a little embarrassed.
He stepped forward and whispered, "Can we still have sex after having a child?"
The female doctor rolled her eyes at him again and said, "Give me back my book. What have you been reading? Is it just about how to take care of pregnant women who have morning sickness in the first three months?"
Lu Qinchuan scratched his head. To be honest, he had only read about how to deal with pregnant women with severe morning sickness in the first three months.
"Haha... this is common sense. You can't be a monk during such a long pregnancy. Just be careful!"
The other doctor burst out laughing. Lu Qinchuan had come to see them many times in the past three months, and they had even quarreled with each other. It could be said that they had become friends after fighting.
Yes, this monk who has broken his vows has not eaten meat for several months.
His gaze involuntarily fell on Zhou Ruoyu's face. When their eyes met, Zhou Ruoyu glared at him fiercely and gave him a look that said "shameless!"
Seeing that Lu Qinchuan seemed a little clumsy in this regard, the doctor reminded him of some precautions before letting them leave.
Anyway, it’s a good thing. Lu Qinchuan pulled Zhou Ruoyu back.
Before he even walked out of the hospital gate, a familiar voice came from behind: "Lu Qinchuan, what a coincidence!"
