Chapter 1932: You’re So Skinny, It’s Pathetic
Grandpa and Grampy merely gave them a call and didn’t do anything else regarding them receiving the marriage certificate. However, Wen Xinya understood that for most Chinese, they weren’t considered truly wedded without a wedding, especially for the older generation who placed even more emphasis on this—in their eyes, they were only considered officially married after holding a wedding with friends and family invited.
“Ah— I’m so bored!” lamented Wen Xinya as she laid in bed and hit her blanket helplessly.
For the past few days, she had been staying in the hospital to nurse her pregnancy, her phone confiscated by Si Yiyan in the name of radiation, and she was so bored that she was turning moldy. She suspected that as she had been too bored these few days, frequently called Si Yiyan and sent messages to disturb him, interrupting his work, it caused him to come up with an excuse to confiscate her phone.
Wen Xinya felt deeply resentful towards Si Yiyan.
“Bang”, the door to the ward swung open to Zhou Tianyu and the gang.
In the hands of Gu Junling and the few men were bags of tonics, fruits, and snacks.
Zhou Tianyu rolled her eyes blatantly at her. “You’re merely eating and sleeping everything and you still dare to complain.”
However, despite saying that, she actually felt quite sorry for her. Nobody else nursed their pregnancies in the same way as her, only laying in bed the whole day, needing to be extra careful even when she touched the ground, couldn’t watch too much television because it was bad for her eyes, couldn’t read magazines for long durations because it was too taxing, and couldn’t use her phone due to radiation!
Most terrifyingly, she still needed to take that kind of black and bitter pregnancy nourishment medicine every day.
Wen Xinya’s eyes lit up seeing that they came, pouted, and said, “Are you sure you’re not referring to a pig?”
Only pigs slept and ate all day.
To think that she was at the stage of merely eating and waiting to die… oh no… it was eating and waiting to give birth.
Xu Tongxuan burst out laughing. “Have you seen a pig that’s as skinny as you? If so, the pig is pathetic!”
Ever since she got pregnant, Xinya got extremely thin.
Nursing her pregnancy in the hospital during this period of time, although she wasn’t as frail and weak as previously, she didn’t put on the least bit of weight.
Wen Xinya rebuked. “Don’t you guys have a little sympathy—can we still hang out happily together?”
She had already become like this and they actually still mocked her—that was too much.
Ye Feiyu pursed her lips, smiled, and said, “Alright, don’t be angry. We know that you’re very bored in the hospital and especially came to visit and entertain you.”
Ever since Xinya got pregnant, these buddies were also very anxious.
Only then did Wen Xinya pouted and said, “At least you guys still have a conscience.”
The few of them didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
Du Ruo went up to Wen Xinya and said, “Xinya, you’re looking much better these two days—seems like the pregnancy stabilizing pills that Grandpa gave you were very effective. How about I read your pulse and check how the baby is doing?”
In the days that Xinya was hospitalized, Grandpa had come over personally almost every three days to read her pulse and check on her health.
Actually, such matters could have been handed to her. However, as Grandpa felt that she was young, inexperienced, inept in medical skills, and too immature to handle matters steadily, he insisted on doing it personally.
Wen Xinya stretched out her wrist at Du Ruo.
After a moment, Du Ruo smiled and said, “Your pulse has stabilized a bit. Keep taking the pregnancy stabilizing medicine and this should basically be a smooth pregnancy. However, you’re too weak—focus on getting adequate nutrition and regain your health as soon as possible. As the pregnancy proceeds, it’ll demand more nutrition from the mother’s body. Come that time, if your body can’t match the demands, not only will it affect the baby’s development, but your body will also be ruined.”
There were no issues with this pregnancy for the time being.
The biggest problem now was still Xinya’s body, which was slightly too weak to absorb nutrients and totally couldn’t be nursed back to health for the time being. Once the baby got bigger, having insufficient and weak blood would be very dangerous to the baby.
Many women with insufficient and weak blood couldn’t make it through this stage.
She had heard from Grandpa and previously. Xinya’s Granny had the same condition which caused her a difficult pregnancy. After she gave birth to Xinya’s mother, she had ended up with numerous gynecological conditions which caused her health to deteriorate, and finally, she died at a young age.
Hearing that the baby was doing fine, for the time being, a smile appeared on Wen Xinya’s face. “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of my health.”
With Si Yiyan around, she felt very assured throughout, as if his support made her fearless regardless of what happened—this was probably the sense of security that people frequently talked about!
Gu Junling patted her shoulder and said, “Just nurse your pregnancy in the hospital for this period of time. Tianyu and the other girls will take turns to make time to come and keep you company in the hospital. We’ll also come and visit you frequently to cure your boredom.”
To stay in the hospital to nurse a pregnancy and not being able to do anything was indeed quite torturous.
Wen Xinya was extremely touched. Naturally, after she got pregnant, she had become a lot more sensitive. Being alone, she frequently had wild thoughts, and her previous tragic lifetime also became exceptionally vivid and exaggerated in her thoughts.
Ling Qingxuan saw that there were tears in her eyes and burst out laughing. “The saying that women with big bellies are emotional is spot-on. Stop tearing. Otherwise, if Ninth Si knows about it, his heart will ache.”
He had known Xinya for more than ten years and this was the first time he saw this emotional and sensitive side of her.
Wen Xinya sniffed and stared at him. “You’re the one with the big belly—your whole family has big bellies!”
She had obviously just gotten pregnant and it had yet to show okay.
Han Mofeng placed his hand on Ling Qingxuan’s shoulder and laughed heartily. “Oh, he probably hopes that his whole family has big bellies. Unfortunately, someone wouldn’t give him a chance.”
Saying that he shot a meaningful glance at Ye Feiyu.
“Xinya, have you and Ninth Si really gotten your marriage certificate?”
Under everyone’s jokes and teasing for an extended period of time, Ye Feiyu had already cultivated the skill of staying calm. Without even looking at Han Mofeng and Ling Qingxuan, she had diverted the topic onto Wen Xinya.
Under the curious gazes of Zhou Tianyu, Xu Tongxuan, and Du Ruo, Wen Xinya said plainly, “Yup. Si Yiyan said that we’ll hold our wedding when my pregnancy stabilizes. You guys remember to get your red packets ready.” Saying that she glanced at Zhou Tianyu. “Even Si Yiyan and I have gotten our certificate. When do you and Little Eunuch Gu intend to seal the deal? It hasn’t been easy for Little Eunuch Gu to wait for you for so many years, you should also stop putting on airs.”
With a calm look, she threw the topic to Zhou Tianyu.
Zhou Tianyu gritted her teeth and stared at her. “Junling and I aren’t in a hurry to get married for the time being. However, Xuanxuan isn’t young anymore but is still single—do you think we should get busy and introduce a couple of dates to her? While we are all paired up, we can’t just let her go lonely.”
Saying that she looked towards Xu Tongxuan.
Xu Tongxuan was slightly speechless—was it a topic relay? “You guys don’t look at me. I’ve yet to become lucky in love and there’s nothing I can do as well. My father is even more anxious than you guys. Instead, Ruoruo, the little research maniac doesn’t seem like she’ll be enlightened soon!”
Du Ruo only had research on her mind—Han Mofeng’s road to getting himself a wife wasn’t any easier than Gu Junling.
Du Ruo widened her eyes, slightly lost, and everyone was speechless.
