Chapter 354 Hospital



Chapter 354 Hospital

After finishing their meal quickly, the eldest and second oldest Shen pushed the cart out of their home.

With the help of Mrs. Shen and the old lady, Xu Manyue put the things she had prepared last night on the cart.

Considering that the cart can only be pulled by manpower and it is not convenient to put too many things on it, Mrs. Shen carried a backpack to reduce the weight of the cart as much as possible.

The old lady watched Xu Manyue slowly get on the cart with the help of her eldest daughter-in-law. There was a soft cushion under her, a quilt covering her body, and a red scarf wrapped around her head, leaving only her eyes, nose and mouth exposed.

Her heart relaxed a little, and she continued to give instructions to her eldest daughter-in-law.

"Don't be idle when you go to the hospital. Take good care of your third sister-in-law. Especially when she is discharged, don't let her get exposed to the cold wind. She must be wrapped up tightly. Remember?"

Mrs. Shen, carrying a full basket on her back, walked up to the old lady and turned sideways to let her see.

"Mom, don't worry. Look at what's in here. We've prepared everything we need. Nothing is missing. I guarantee there won't be any mistakes."

As she spoke, she raised her chin and patted her chest in assurance.

The old lady was amused by her behavior. She lowered her head to check and found that there was indeed nothing wrong with it.

"Okay, now that you've returned from the hospital, I'll reward you with two eggs."

Mrs. Shen's eyes sparkled with a smile, and she quickly said, "Mom, you said this, don't go back on your word. Just wait for us at home."

The old lady rolled her eyes at her unhappily, then walked to Xu Manyue's side, took her hand and patted it gently, "Every woman has to give birth, and giving birth will hurt. Don't be afraid, there is a doctor by your side."

"Just do whatever you're told. It'll be fine once the baby is born."

"When you come back, mother will personally take care of you during the confinement period and make sure you recover well."

Xu Manyue pursed her lips and smiled, nodding, "Mom, don't worry, I will."

If she hadn't had the pills given by the system, she would indeed be nervous and scared.

However, it is inevitable to have these emotions when giving birth for the first time.

The old lady's brows relaxed a little, and she took Xu Manyue's hand and patted it, "That's good, mother will wait for you to come back home."

"If you need anything, ask your eldest sister to take care of it for you. You're about to give birth, so don't run around with a big belly. Do you hear me?"

Xu Manyue: "Don't worry, mother, I won't joke with my body. It's windy outside, you should go back to the house and rest. We should leave too."

Boss Shen and Second Boss Shen are only taking the patient to the hospital and will be back in the evening. If they leave early now, they won’t have to come back in the dark later.

The old lady nodded, then looked up and instructed her two sons, "When you pull the cart, remember to choose a good route and don't let the third daughter-in-law get shaken. She can't be careless right now. The slightest accident could cause her to give birth prematurely. It would be terrible if the cart started halfway."

Where can I find someone to deliver the baby then?

Shen Lao Da and Shen Lao Er: "Don't worry, mother, we know what to do."

"You should go back and rest first. It's so cold, don't let the cold get to your body."

The old lady knew that they were worried about her, but at the same time they also thought she talked too much.

She waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, you guys go, I'm going back to the house."

"Remember my words, be careful and don't cause any trouble."

Xu Manyue sat on the cart, smiled and waved to the old lady, "Mom, we understand, you can go back now."

After people entered the house.

Shen Lao Er breathed a sigh of relief and raised his eyebrows. "Mom is still nagging like before. Let's go, big brother. If we don't leave now, we will have to rush back in the dark today."

Boss Shen glared at him and said, "Second brother, you are getting bolder and bolder. You even dare to talk about your mother."

"Hurry up and pull the cart away."

Mrs. Shen did not sit on the cart with Xu Manyue. She could only follow the cart closely with a large backpack on her back.

However, since the things in the backpack were not heavy, she did not feel any strain at first, and could even lower her voice and chat with Xu Manyue.

"Third sister-in-law, don't worry about going to the hospital this time. I secretly asked someone to calculate for you. You can give birth to four sons in this lifetime. Even if this one is not a son, the next one will definitely be a son."

"As long as you don't want to have a child like Lin Luoxia does, you will give birth to a son sooner or later."

Xu Manyue paused as she lowered her head and touched her belly. She pursed her lips and said, "Sister-in-law, please don't say that in the future. For me, it doesn't matter whether you have a son or a daughter. They are all my children."

She is not worried about anything else. Her only worry is the old lady who favors boys over girls.

Even though the old lady treats her well now and cares about the baby in her belly, she still can't figure out what she's thinking.

Therefore, she originally wanted to ask her second aunt to come and take care of her during the confinement period. She was afraid that if she gave birth to a girl, the old lady would be unhappy and would not take good care of her.

Sometimes, if you think about it from a different perspective, the old lady's preference for boys over girls really made Lin Luoxia suffer a lot of cold stares.

Among the Shen family's current grandson and two granddaughters, the old lady dislikes Shen Baozhu the most.

Seeing that Xu Manyue was a little distracted, Mrs. Shen thought that she was just saying that she was not worried, but was actually very worried.

She was afraid that if she gave birth to a girl this time, it would be difficult to explain to the old lady and her husband, so she sighed and continued.

"Third sister-in-law, don't think about it. You're still young and you'll definitely be able to have a child. I've calculated it for you. You're destined to have a son. If this time doesn't work out, there's always another time."

The person who told her fortune was the most famous fortune teller in the village. She was now in her seventies or eighties, childless, but still alive. Even the famine in recent years did not starve her to death.

Those old people all said that she was a person of real ability, otherwise she would not have lived until now.

When Xu Manyue heard the fortune-telling, her face changed and she quickly put her finger to her mouth, making a gesture to stop her from speaking.

She looked around and saw that they were the only ones around, so she lowered her voice and said, "Fortune-telling and the like are all feudal superstitions. You'd better not go there again. This is a new society, not the old one."

Mrs. Shen didn't take it seriously. She waved her hand and said, "Hey, there are many people in the team who go to her for fortune-telling. I'm not the only one. If no one tells anyone, then there's nothing to worry about."

Besides, the new society has been established for more than ten years, and I haven’t heard of anyone having any trouble with this issue.

Xu Manyue's face turned serious. "Sister-in-law, please don't worry about this. Just because it's okay now doesn't mean it will be okay in the future. We must not touch anything that we shouldn't touch."

"Don't worry about whether others go or not, just don't go."

After a few years, these small things may become big things. If you are not careful, you will be paraded through the streets and criticized, and your family will be implicated.
