Chapter 177: Liu Shulan came to the door
When Chang An entered the ward, Luo Xiaoyu's in-laws and parents were there, and there was a lot of excitement, and the single ward, which was not too spacious, was a little crowded.
Chang An didn't expect so many people, and suddenly felt that he had come at an inopportune time, but Luo Xiaoyu was very happy.
It was almost lunch time, and she sent everyone in the family out to eat.
"Come on, come here!"
Luo Xiaoyu was born in the uterus, and she was not able to get out of bed now, so she raised her hand and beckoned Chang An to sit at the head of the bed.
Chang An pointed to the small bed next to him. "I'll look at the kids first. β
She walked lightly to the side, a small lump like a ball was lying inside, a small section of her hands and feet was exposed, her purple-red skin was wrinkled, her eyes and nose seemed to be rubbed together, and a few strands of hair were lying on her forehead.
"It turns out that a newborn baby looks like this. Chang An sighed.
Luo Xiaoyu smiled: "Yes, isn't it ugly?"
"No, it's not ugly. β
"Come on, I felt terrible when I saw it for the first time, but I thought it was okay after watching it for the past two days. β
Chang An knows that probably everyone who is a mother thinks like this.
"Newborn babies are wrinkled, and when their facial features are opened, their skin will change when they are full. β
Luo Xiaoyu stared at her and laughed out.
Chang An glared: "What are you laughing at, I said it wrong?"
"No, that's right, but you're only so old that you act as if you're very experienced. β
Chang An interrupted the topic, and took out a small box from his bag.
"I don't know what to send, I don't think you're short of anything else, so I chose a gadget for her to wear and play. She rested the box on the side of her pillow.
Luo Xiaoyu opened it, and it was a delicate and small gold lock, strung with a red rope.
"Just come and see, you don't have to send anything!"
Luo Xiaoyu returned the box, Chang An refused to accept it, and the two passed back and forth a few times.
"I've watched all the news exposed at night some time ago, and I know that you've been in a bad situation recently, so it's really not necessary for such a valuable thing, Xiao Chang, I've always regarded you as a friend, and friends don't need to see each other like this, right?"
Chang An sneered, "I'm bankrupt, and I can't spend money anymore, but I still have the money to buy a small lock for my child to wear, and this is really not expensive, you see, it's all hollow." She took the lock out of the box and deliberately asked her to weigh it in Xiaoyu's hand.
Luo Xiaoyu didn't have a rut, "Okay, then I'll take the things, you sit." She put the lock back into the box.
Chang An was satisfied, "Don't be shabby!"
Luo Xiaoyu glared angrily, "The knife edge is hurt by you." β
Chang An was stunned for a moment, and was worried: "Really?"
This time it was Luo Xiaoyu's turn to smile: "Why are you so sincere, you can believe whatever others say, no, how can you be so fragile!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, Chang An asked about the situation of the child again, Luo Xiaoyu's child was born prematurely.
"When I was born less than a month, I was only more than five pounds, and I stayed in the incubator for three days, but thankfully, it's normal now. Luo Xiaoyu still had some palpitations when she said these words, and suddenly asked Chang An when she was done, "What about you, you told me last time that you were going to have a child, have you made any recent moves?"
Chang An'an choked his mouth, and after a moment of relief, he smiled: "Not yet." β
"It's been a long time, it's been a few months, and the birth control pills I took before should no longer have any effect. β
Chang An lowered his head and twisted his fingers: "Let it be." β
Seeing that her attitude was not positive, Luo Xiaoyu was anxious for her.
"This thing can't just go with the flow, Xiaochang, you have to learn my lesson, although you are still young, but the child has to plan early, once the two get married, at first they were still in the honeymoon period of the relationship, it doesn't matter how to toss, but after a long time, there will inevitably be contradictions, when the time comes, if there is no child in the middle to maintain, it is easy to say that it will be scattered, you see I am the best example!"
Luo Xiaoyu and his ex-husband have been in a relationship for more than ten years, but in the end, it is still empty?
"In addition, you have to think about yourself, you and your husband have been married for several years, and there has been no movement, and his family is not in a hurry?"
Luo Xiaoyu said very vaguely, Chang An used to be low-key, so she didn't know her family background, but Xue Bing's matter has been exposed, and Luo Xiaoyu now naturally knows who Chang An's husband is, and what kind of situation she is in.
"Your mother's business... I already know a little bit, including your husband, his family status, if you don't give birth to a child all the time, even if he doesn't care for the time being, can his parents get by?"
Although this is realistic, it makes sense, and Luo Xiaoyu has already expressed it extremely tactfully, if you go a little deeper, Chang An was still a "princess" in the past, with the secretary's daughter and a huge inheritance, but now she has been stripped of several layers of her coat at once, and she has also been humiliated as a "daughter of a corrupt criminal".
If it's an ordinary family, it's fine, but the Zhou family is different, Zhou Fushan is in the army, Zhou Shiqing is in politics, this kind of family marries the daughter of a corrupt criminal as a daughter-in-law, and probably the future career has been cut off.
"I'm sorry, did I talk too much?" Luo Xiaoyu saw Chang An bowing his head and was silent, and hurriedly asked.
Chang An shook his head.
How could she not understand the truth, layer by layer of relationships, layer by layer of logic, and finally fall on reality and human feelings, she has seen a lot in the Chang family for so many years, not to mention the child, Liu Shulan has recently made several calls to come to try.
If calculated according to the time of obtaining the certificate, she and Zhou Wei have been married for three years, and they have no children for three years, so it is really unreasonable.
"No, Sister Xiaoyu, I understand everything you said. β
"You understand, I'm teaching you as a person who has come over, marriage is sometimes really realistic, not to mention that it is also a toss to have a child when you are old, the doctor said that I may have been born prematurely because of my age, so I advise you to give birth to one while you are young. β
Chang An smiled bitterly: "Got it." β
Luo Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing Chang An's abnormal face, he guessed: "What's the matter?
Chang An shook his head: "No!"
She wants to quarrel, but according to her character, I'm afraid it's difficult to quarrel with anyone, but the "cold war" is worse than the "quarrel", which is the suffocation of leaving the other party alone in a closed space and letting the contradictions and pain tear apart wantonly.
Chang An came out of the ward, the sun was shining, and people were coming and going on the road, but she didn't know where to go.
The mobile phone rang loudly, Liu Shulan's phone.
Chang An swallowed and connected: "Mom..."
"Xiao An, aren't you at home?"
Chang An realized that Liu Shulan had probably gone to Changhe, and replied: "Yes, in the hospital, come and see a friend." β
"Oh, look at your friends, are you sick?"
Chang An unconsciously pinched his fingers, "No, give birth." β
It seemed to be quiet for a few seconds.
Chang An asked, "Do you have something to do with me?"
"Is there something I want to ask you, and it is inconvenient to say on the phone, why don't we meet and talk?"
Chang An took a taxi back directly at the gate of the hospital, Liu Shulan had the password to the gate, but she was usually interesting, and she didn't come over much, but this time it was different.
When Chang An entered the door, Liu Shulan was already sitting on the sofa in the living room, chatting with someone on the phone: "...... I know, no, she doesn't have a job, and there must be no problem with the time, so it's scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, and I'll go directly to the office to find you. β
Hanging up the phone, Liu Shulan turned around.
"Coming back?"
Chang An put the bag on the entrance and smiled reluctantly: "Mom, I'm sorry, there is no one at home here." β
"Don't get in the way, I know that Ah Yan has been on a business trip these days, and I didn't tell you in advance. Liu Shulan smiled brightly, not showing the slightest displeasure.
Chang An licked his lips, which were a little dry from the scorching sun.
"I'll make you a cup of tea. He was about to enter the kitchen, but was grabbed by Liu Shulan, "Don't be busy, I'll tell you about it and leave." She led Chang An to sit on the sofa next to her, and her hand did not let go, patting the back of Chang An's hand.
"Xiao An, you've been married for three years, haven't we ever sat down and talked to each other?"
Chang An looked up at Liu Shulan, "I'm usually too busy, and I haven't gone back to see you much." β
"It doesn't matter if this doesn't matter, you and Ah Yi can live your own life, it's just Xiao An..."
Chang An looked down at Liu Shulan slowly rubbing the back of her hand, and such an intimate action made her really uncomfortable.
"Mom, if you have something to say, just say it. β
Liu Shulan laughed out loud for a while, "Okay, then don't turn around, Xiao An, you can tell your conscience, how has the Zhou family treated you all these years?"
"Good. β
"It's good to talk about it, but to be honest, it shouldn't be thin, especially recently your mother's case has been turned over, and it's actually hard to hear outside, but has the family never said a word to you?"
At this point, the Zhou family is indeed good, and Chang An is also grateful, but Liu Shulan suddenly mentioned this, there must be her purpose.
"Mom, what the hell are you trying to say?"
Liu Shulan continued to pat the back of Chang An's hand, "Actually, it's still a clichΓ©, you know, the old man has always wanted to hold his great-grandson, although Shiqing and I are not in such a hurry, but I actually want to do it in my heart." Yes, you are still young, you don't have to be so anxious, but Ah Yan is not small, he is the third generation of the Zhou family, you have been married for so long and have never had a child, isn't it a bit unreasonable?"
Chang An knew that sooner or later there would be this day, but he didn't expect Liu Shulan to take the initiative to come to her to talk to her.
"Mom, what do you say, what do you say you should do?"
Liu Shulan was stunned, probably not expecting Chang An to throw the question back directly.
"This..."she hesitated, "Actually, there are quite a few people who have been married for two or three years and have not had children, but we still have to pay attention, I had dinner with my old classmate the day before yesterday, remember, the director of women and children, she advised me that I should still take you for a check-up." Liu Shulan paused and observed Chang An's face.
Chang An didn't react, Liu Shulan saw that she didn't seem to reject, and struck while the iron was hot, "Xiao An, don't think about it, it's a routine examination, if the problem is found, we will treat the symptoms, if the problem is not found, it is the best, but it will not lose anything, right?"
Liu Shulan tried her best to be tactful, and Chang An could hear the caution in her tone.
"Mom..."She withdrew her hand from Liu Shulan's knee, "I know you are for our good, and I am not reluctant to go for a check-up, but pregnancy should be a matter of two people, should Ah Yan also go to check together?"
After Liu Shulan heard this, her face sank in an instant.
