Jiang Liting opened his eyes in a daze and saw Zhou Caifeng was about to exit. His voice was slightly hoarse and he said:
"Mom, why did you come here empty-handed?"
Zhou Caifeng gave up on going out, walked in sideways, closed the door lightly and said:
"What, now I have to prepare a gift when I see you?"
Jiang Liting's hair was floating in front of his forehead, and his eyes were sleepy. He got out of bed lightly:
"You are not allowed to stew an old hen to nourish your daughter-in-law."
"Yes, yes, I'll go back and stew right now. I was in a hurry just now." Zhou Caifeng nodded hurriedly, then hurriedly walked to the door, then turned back and said: "By the way, is the child okay?"
Jiang Liting: "It's okay."
"That's good. Hold it in a little longer. You're not afraid of jokes. On the way here, everyone was talking about it. I don't even have the nerve to say I'm your mother."
Zhou Caifeng left after talking. Jiang Liting's face was also a little red. He never expected that such a good thing as pregnancy would turn out like this.
When Su Wanyan woke up, he saw Jiang Liting sitting beside the bed and said:
"Aren't you going to work?"
"I have to wait until you are discharged from the hospital anyway." Jiang Liting raised his eyebrows lightly and took the red bean porridge that had been left to cool down: "Want to drink it?"
Su Wanyan stood up and prepared to wash up, but within two steps, he noticed some discomfort in his lower abdomen.
Seeing her standing still, Jiang Liting was frightened and stood up to help her, saying anxiously:
"Daughter-in-law, how are you? What's wrong with you? Is our child okay? Don't scare me."
After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and call the doctor. Su Wanyan was speechless, lay back on the bed again, and interrupted:
"It's okay, it's just that my lower face still hurts a little bit when I walk."
Jiang Liting paused and touched the broken hair on the back of his head sheepishly: "Then don't walk. I'll bring it to you. My wife is very valuable now."
Su Wanyan chuckled, washed up under his service, drank the porridge and then lay down again.
Jiang Liting sat next to her, gently placing his big palm on her belly and feeling the little life carefully, with a strange and powerful look on his face.

Zhou Caifeng bought a bunch of things and rushed home. On the way, she met Liu Xia, who said hello:
"Going to the streets so early."
Zhou Caifeng said cheerfully:
"Hey, yes, Li Ting's wife is just pregnant."
Liu Xia's smile froze slightly and echoed:
"Congratulations, congratulations."
Zhou Caifeng wanted to raise the corners of her mouth to the sky and said: "Really, don't praise my family Li Ting for being so powerful. Gaiming will die in tears if he hears it.
Although I also think that my family's Li Ting is amazing. This newly married daughter-in-law got pregnant that same month. It must be thanks to my family's Li Ting's good health, right? "
"Yes, yes." Liu Xia looked gradually embarrassed and couldn't continue the conversation, so she turned around and left.
Zhou Caifeng returned home carrying her things and saw Jiang Zhu who was pulling corn on a cart. She greeted:
"Old man, Li Ting has a baby. Kill that old hen quickly."
"Really?" Jiang Zhu excitedly threw down the cart. With a "bang" sound, the corn on the cart scattered all over the ground. He said anxiously:
"Then let's just kill the pigs in the pigsty first. Stew the ones that should be stewed, and pickle the ones that should be marinated. That would be great."
Zhou Caifeng urged: "It's not too late to do it after I'm discharged from the hospital. I have to stew the chicken quickly. Our grandson is still waiting for dinner in the hospital."
Jiang Zhu started to work without saying a word, killing chickens and fish. He even took off several layers of the vegetables he bought, leaving the core inside, and fried them into a small dish.
She paid special attention to it this time. In the past, she changed her habit of not rinsing the pot after cooking a dish to rinsing it two or three times to ensure that no black pot ash is stained on each dish.
Jiang Zhu, on the other hand, had stopped smoking, and was filling the fire behind him, and standing by the side to direct the cooking, fearing that it would be too salty and watery for Su Wanyan's liking.
Jiang Yaya smelled the aroma and walked into the kitchen with her short legs raised: "Grandma, I want to eat."
Zhou Caifeng waved the spatula:
"Go on, this is for your mother. You are going to have a little brother soon."
Jiang Yaya didn't understand, she deflated her cheeks, and Qin Sufang took her away. After Zhou Caifeng finished it, Jiang Zhu didn't even want to break the corn in the field and shouted:
"I have to follow over and have a look."
"Why are you going? It won't be too early for me to finish eating in Wanyan. You can prepare the meal for the evening at home and I will come back to cook it. There are only six or seven dishes in this meal, so how can our grandson keep up? Nutrition."
"Yes, yes, yes, I will go to the village to buy an old goose, and let the cook in our village cook the big banquet cook it for our grandson in the evening."
Only then was Zhou Caifeng satisfied and rushed to the hospital carrying two three-layer insulated buckets:
"Wan Yan, you have eaten, you are not hungry."
"I had a late breakfast, so I'm not very hungry yet." Su Wanyan got off the bed.
Zhou Caifeng hurriedly stopped her and said, "Just stay on the bed. Your body is weak. If you can't move, don't move. This will save you from getting into trouble again."
Su Wanyan didn't argue. After all, it was his first baby and there was blood last night. He was really afraid of an accident.
Jiang Liting was responsible for laying out the food. The rather small dining table was occupied by old hen soup, braised fish, braised beef, two stir-fried vegetable cores and a large portion of rice.
Zhou Caifeng said cheerfully: "I don't know what you like to eat, but I heard that there is a nanny who specializes in cooking. Why don't we hire another nanny who specializes in cooking for you?"
"And when our eldest grandson is born, we will find a nanny to take care of the child."
Su Wanyan suddenly felt like a poor mother and a noble son. Although Zhou Caifeng no longer offended her before, he kept silent about such caring and willing things.
Jiang Liting brought the chicken soup to Su Wanyan. Su Wanyan looked at the oily old hen and pushed it back with a chuckle:
"A little too much oil."
Zhou Caifeng hurriedly took her over:
"Then I'll give you a quick look and you can eat the others first."
If Zhou Caifeng had been in the past, he would have been reluctant to put oil in cooking, let alone boil a pot of chicken soup and skim off the chicken fat.
But Su Wanyan was carrying Jiang Liting's child, so he cherished it very much.
Su Wanyan sat by the bed to eat, Zhou Caifeng stood beside him and was responsible for skimming oil, and Jiang Liting carefully picked the whole fish, as carefully as he wanted.
Su Wanyan raised the corners of his lips. He was in a good mood and had a good appetite, and he would not refuse anyone who came. But while he was eating, Wang Fen and Jiang Liming came in with two net bags of fruit.
Jiang Liming smiled and said: "Brothers and sisters, are you eating?"
Zhou Caifeng: "Why are you here?"
Wang Fen put the fruit on the ground and said, "Didn't you hear that I'm pregnant? I came here to have a look."
Su Wanyan took the chicken soup handed over by Zhou Caifeng and drank it silently without making a sound, but in a blink of an eye, he saw something... something was wrong on Wang Fen's face.
Su Wanyan didn't say anything. When Zhou Caifeng skimmed the oil and handed it to her, Wang Fen couldn't help but said:
"Mom, you are a bit too biased. I didn't get this kind of treatment when I was pregnant."
