In addition to various clocks and watches, Chu Li also brought back a bizarre desk calendar, with a lot of foreign numbers written on it, some strange illustrations and a lot of foreign characters that she didn't recognize.

Chu Li didn't know foreign characters either, he only knew those numbers, he said, "After eating, I'll teach you to recognize those numbers, those numbers are easy to recognize." ”

As for the strange foreign characters on it, they were ignored by Chu Li.

Xi Feng said with a smile, "This calendar looks just right, if you don't give it to A-Niang, A-Niang's memory is much worse than in previous years, and she often forgets the days." ”

"Okay, we'll send it over together in a while, just right, I'll teach you to know the foreign numbers above."

Chu Li put the desk calendar aside, and ordered the maid to put the rest of the things away, and as for the pocket watch, it was still hanging around Xi Feng's neck.

After eating, the two of them went to Ning'an Hall, Lao Anren looked at the desk calendar, very happy, and seriously learned the above dozens of numbers with his son.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Chu family prepared two tables of banquets.

One table for men and one table for women.

Mrs. Chu has been pregnant for eight months, and she can't see her toes when she walks with a big belly, and every day when she walks after eating, Uncle Chu personally holds her and doesn't feel at ease, and she has to tremble every time.

Today, Xi Feng specially instructed his subordinates to prepare a spacious and sturdy Taishi chair for Mrs. Chu to sit on, and a soft cushion was specially placed on the chair to make Mrs. Chu sit more comfortably.

Mrs. Chu looked at the intimate care of her subordinates, she raised her head, looked at Xi Feng, and said with a smile, "It's still my brother and sister who think thoughtfully." ”

In the past few days, the bigger the belly, the more uncomfortable it is to sit, too hard, it is very uncomfortable to sit, but the stomach has been walking, and she is tired and panicked, in short, the life of pregnant women is very difficult, and the more she is approaching the due date, the more uneasy she is in her heart.

Lao An persuaded her, "It's okay, as long as you walk around after eating every day, the birth will be smooth, I gave birth to seven, aren't they all smooth, it's okay, don't worry." ”

Aunt Guo also smiled, "When you give birth to the first one, you will be a little nervous, and when the child is born, it will be fine, and when the second one is born, you will not be nervous anymore." ”

Mrs. Chu smiled, "What I hope most now is that the child will be born safely." ”

"Mrs. Lu is a famous midwife in Hangzhou, and there are not thousands of children delivered by her, but only 800, so you can put a hundred hearts." Lao An is humane.

Speaking of Mrs. Lu, she looked at Xi Feng again, "Did you instruct the kitchen to make another table of banquets for Mrs. Lu?" ”

"Yes, it's already ready to be delivered."

"Well, that's good, at the beginning, Afu, Arui, and Aqin were all delivered by Lu Pozi, at that time, she was only in her twenties, but her midwifery skills were better than her older women."

"That's the ancestral craft of her Lu family, and it's not a daughter-in-law."

"However, in the generation of Mrs. Lu, I am afraid that this craft will be broken, Mrs. Lu only gave birth to three sons, but failed to give birth to a daughter."

When Lao Anren said this, he sighed regretfully.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, on August 18, Chu Li came back in a hurry not long after he went out.

Xi Feng was also surprised, "Why did you come back, did you leave something behind and didn't take it?" ”

"It's not."

After sending the maids back, Chu Li pulled his little daughter-in-law into the inner room, and told her with a solemn face, "The people from the Ping'an Hou Mansion and the Huo family are here." ”
