Pregnancy (Part 2)
Ji Qingqing’s pregnancy directly caused a sensation in the Lu family.
After Grandpa Lu received a call from Aunt Pei, the smile on his face never disappeared. He immediately called a servant to clean up the room next to the master bedroom where Ji Qingqing and Lu Lixing stayed, planning to quickly convert it to a baby room for the arrival of the baby.
After thinking about it, Grandpa Lu called one of his nephews who was an interior designer and asked him to see if he had time to design a baby room for his niece or nephew who was to be born just nine months away. The nephew hurriedly agreed to the task.
Therefore, under the supervision of Mr. Lu, the activities of the entire Lu family spun like a turning top.
It wasn’t until one o’clock in the afternoon that Lu Lixing personally took Ji Qingqing home. He saw that the grass in the yard was trimmed, the glass windows were wiped, and the floor was swept. It could be said that the entire residence was carefully cleaned from the inside and out.
Grandpa Lu sat on the sofa reading the newspaper. Hearing the sound of the car in the yard, he took off his reading glasses and hurriedly walked outside.
“Did you come back with Qingqing?”
Ji Qingqing got out of the car. “Grandpa, I’m back!”

Ji Qingqing looked back at Lu Lixing, showing an exaggerated expression of helplessness.
“Grandpa, it’s okay, the fetus is only one month old, I don’t even feel anything at all.”
“It’s only been a month. It’s still just the size of your thumb, of course, you won’t feel it.” He glanced at Lu Lixing who followed in behind him. “Why are you back too?”
“The company has nothing to do this afternoon, so I came back.”
The smile on the corners of Lu Lixing’s eyes was evident, but his expressions were harder to read than Grandpa Lu, making it hard for anybody to notice.
While walking into the living room, Grandpa Lu asked Ji Qingqing to sit down on the sofa. He took a closer look at the results of her examination today and carefully asked Aunt Pei about the precautions the doctor had given them today.
Aunt Pei relayed to him the doctor’s instructions one by one. After speaking, she couldn’t help but let out a sigh. “Just a day after you got married, you found out that you were pregnant. It’s a double celebration! I was still thinking before, young master, when you will be able to have your grandson. How could we have known that Ji Qingqing would be pregnant right away?”
Grandpa Lu soothed them. “Don’t worry about it, they’re still both young and have healthy bodies. We didn’t plan to rush things, but of course, it’s a good thing to be pregnant.”
“By the way, now that you’re pregnant, you can’t eat spicy and cold food in the meantime.”
After speaking, Aunt Pei glanced at Ji Qingqing again reproachfully. “Old man, you don’t know how she scared me today. Do you know what she said when we went to the hospital for an examination?”
“She actually said that she was still exercising in the gym two days before she got married. I was sweating profusely after I learned about that.”
“Aunt Pei, don’t worry about it. The doctor has said that the child is very healthy.”
“Yes. Fortunately, the child is healthy.”
Grandpa Lu remembered, “Did you drink at the wedding yesterday? If I’m not wrong, pregnant people cannot drink alcohol.”
“Yes, yes, yes! How did I forget that?!”Aunt Pei said anxiously.
“Qingqing, do you remember how much wine you drank yesterday? I forgot to tell the doctor about it just now.”
“That isn’t a problem. Tomorrow, Lixing, accompany Qingqing to have another examination. Tell the doctor about every single little detail.”
Ji Qingqing smiled bitterly on one side. But, she couldn’t say that Mr. Lu and Aunt Pei were making a big fuss over nothing. After all, they were doing it for her and the baby’s own good.
“By the way, I almost forgot. We have to check your skin care products and cosmetics if their ingredients are suitable for pregnant women. I’ll also order two sets of loose clothing for you. For pregnant women, comfort must be the utmost priority.”

“When Lixing was about to be born, his father didn’t even prepare anything. He started to go to Zhangluo two days before his birth. Lixing almost didn’t have any clothes to wear. This isn’t okay. “
“In that case, Aunt Pei, in the next two days, you should also pay more attention to the child’s clothes, crib, stroller, diapers, milk powder, and… what else…”
“Anyway, pay attention to the needs of the baby. If you can think of anything, buy it back first, it won’t be a hassle. Anyway, there are many empty storage rooms in our residence.”
“Sure! Then I will take a look in the next two days.”
Grandpa Lu and Aunt Pei discussed enthusiastically there as if they had forgotten all about them, the actual parents of the baby.
Ji Qingqing and Lu Lixing looked at each other, noticing the deep mirth in the other’s eyes.
As it turned out, Ji Qingqing soon found out that pregnant women had the tendency to be more lethargic.
Ji Qingqing stayed up late last night, got up early, and ran between the hospital and the company that morning. She was gradually tired and couldn’t help but yawn. This was, of course, seen by Lu Lixing.
“Sleepy?”
Ji Qingqing nodded her head lightly.
“Sleepy?”Aunt Pei also heard it from the side, and said immediately, “Then hurry up, go back to your room and rest.”
“By the way, Qingqing, what do you want to eat at night? Tell Aunt Pei, I’ll make it for you.”
Ji Qingqing opened her mouth, wanting to say a few dishes that she usually loved to eat, but as soon as the dishes that she usually loved passed through her mind, a feeling of nausea rose up in her throat again.
