This Damned Sweetness - Chapter 84
It is said to be doing business, but this child does not mean that he is born. Before the two had strict contraceptive measures, they just didn’t want the child to arrive in a hurry. On the one hand, they were not mentally prepared, and on the other hand, they were afraid that there would be something in case that might affect the health of the fetus.
Although the daily habits of the two are fairly regular, and the diet is not lacking in balanced nutrition, they still occasionally drink alcohol. If you really want to prepare for pregnancy carefully, Xu Qiao quit alcohol, Cheng Lang quit smoking and alcohol, all have to be on the agenda.
The elders urged the two to go home, in fact, to give them a reminder to support them in preparing as soon as possible, but not to let the children “fall out of the nest” immediately.
Cheng Lang and Xu Qiao returned to their homes in London and met together to study their pregnancy preparation. Cheng’s father and Cheng’s mother also actively promoted their pregnancy plan during the New Year’s Day holiday, and taught them experience and knowledge.
The mother-in-law Zhang Hongjun took the young couple out the next day to go shopping and enthusiastically selected all kinds of baby products, including baby room furniture and electrical appliances.
Once he had a vision for the future, Xu Qiao wanted to buy a copy of every cute thing in the mall.
Zhang Hongjun encouraged her throughout the whole process with the attitude of “adults do not make choices, and rich adults do not make choices”
Afraid of buying too much? Use this one for one, three and five, use this one for two, four and six, and use this one every week, buy, buy!
The child grows fast, and can’t wear clothes and shoes after a few times? If you cant wear it, you can store it in the cloakroom as a souvenir, buy it, buy it all!
Not sure which one is more suitable and better to use? Take a model back for evaluation, buy it, buy it all!
The brands selected by Zhang Hongjun are undoubtedly the Hermes among baby products. While Xu Qiao’s eyes were shining, he stopped her mother-in-law with the only remaining reason, saying that the child had no shadow, don’t be so extravagant and wasteful, Cheng Lang is very hard to make money.
Cheng Lang and Dad Cheng followed them, and they expressed their opinions when they needed to refer to the cash machine in front of the cash machine full of emotions. Upon hearing this, Dad Cheng stepped forward and said: Its okay, the money is made for spending. Besides, his son didn’t have much hard work, so he was still walking in the mall just now, and the money came from the sky.
Cheng Lang followed the two elders and nodded in agreement with a smile.
Xu Qiao found desperately that she, who used to only know how to buy, was already simple and frugal compared to her mother-in-law and the father-in-law who was used to her mother-in-law.
However, after shopping for a day, Xu Qiao realized the true purpose of the trip arranged by her parents-in-law.
It is too early to purchase these supplies, and there is no need to purchase them in London and transport them back to China. Zhang Hongjun came here mainly to give her and Cheng Lang a grand blueprint for planning the birth and raising of children, and to strengthen their conviction in all-out efforts.
This is not so much extravagance and waste, as it is to stimulate their desire to have a baby by stimulating shopping desire.
Spending money to buy a determination for the couple is really a bargain.
Jiang was still hot, and Xu Qiao had to admit that he had more enthusiasm for the pregnancy plan, and he couldn’t even wait.
At the end of the New Years Day holiday, the two returned to China for regular physical examinations, followed the doctors advice, quit all unhealthy habits, and in addition to consciously intake of fresh fruits and vegetables, they also took folic acid regularly and quantitatively every day.
After three months of pregnancy, when the body recovered to its best condition, the two completely stopped contraceptive measures and let them go.
But pregnancy is actually a bit of doing everything to your fate. After all, monthly opportunities are limited, and in the end, it depends on fate.
From late spring in April until the end of summer in August, the two of them did everything they should, but Xu Qiao’s stomach remained silent.
Cheng Lang’s mentality is stable, not to mention that this time has not exceeded the normal pregnancy period. However, Xu Qiao was impatient and gradually became anxious. Even because of the subconscious pressure that affected his mood and endocrine, the period of the period became inaccurate. Two periods were postponed. She was shocked and thought she was pregnant, but she was surprised again. The pregnancy test stick returned to its original shape.
After the second pregnancy test with great fanfare, and the result was another empty joy, Xu Qiao experienced an “an adults collapse moment”.
When she learned the result that day, she didn’t feel particularly depressed at first, but she just gave an unhappy “Oh” and continued to fight with Cheng Lang in the evening.
As a result, I didn’t expect that the suppressed disappointment would spread into my sleep, and I heard the doctor pronounced that she would not have a baby in this life.
She cried loudly in her dream, and her tears flowed outside her dream and turned into sobbing. Cheng Lang was awakened in the middle of the night.
Cheng Lang turned on the light to wake people from the nightmare: “What’s the matter, baby?”
Xu Qiao opened her eyes in a daze, looked at the familiar bedroom ceiling, and then at Cheng Lang. She reacted in a daze. It turned out that she had only had a nightmare. At the same time she was relieved, the grievances that did not erupt during the day completely flooded. In my heart, holding Cheng Langyu incoherently, he said: “I dreamed that the doctor said that I can’t give birth to a child…Quick doctor quack! What kind of quack is this!”
The tone in Cheng Lang’s heart also loosened and tightened.
What is loose is that she just had a nightmare, but what’s more, Xu Qiao has been under over-stressed pressure for this matter recently.
He patted her on the back and whispered, “Hey, stop crying, nightmares are the opposite.”
“It’s not the opposite!” Xu Qiao cried and twitched, but she was still full of anger when she cursed, “This is cursing me!”
“Then I will fire this quack doctor in my dream in a while, okay?” Cheng Lang lowered his head and kissed her tears that were falling.
“Okay.” She nodded with her sullen mouth, “scold him again.”
A doctor who couldn’t even see his face, and had no name or surname, became Xu Qiao’s target.
However, Cheng Lang knew very well that the problem had not been completely resolved after the people had been coaxed temporarily.
He got up and went to the bathroom to twist a hot towel to wipe Xu Qiao’s face. When he was ready, he lay down again and took the person into his arms: “Baby, are you sleepy?”
Suddenly dreaming in the middle of the night, Xu Qiao is now sober enough to draw ten designs in a row, she shook her head.
“Then let’s talk?”
Xu Qiao glanced at him and said dullly: “You said…”
“Baby, giving birth is not a matter for you alone, and I have a share, you dont need to take it as your own responsibility. Indeed, many things in this world are man-made, but fate alone is not anxious, you see. We are all healthy, far below the optimal age for childbearing, not to mention the time to prepare for pregnancy is only half a year, it’s just a fate.”
“Then when can this be a bit worse!”
“Since it is a fate arrangement, sooner or later, it will definitely be the best ending, otherwise why is it still called fate?”
“But seeing that a year has passed, if there is no good news next time I return to London…”
Xu Qiao lowered his eyes and didn’t say anything in the middle.
“Do you think that we have children to fight for benefits with the children, or to fight for that tone in front of whom?”
“Of course not!” Xu Qiao said without hesitation.
“In this case, children are born and raised by us. We are not obliged to take this to please anyone. Whether parents or grandfathers, they are just witnesses of our happiness. Those who truly care about us will respect us. All choices, and understand all our difficulties, as for those who are not important, why should we be led by their eyes?”
Cheng Lang’s expression throughout the whole process is “we”, not “you”.
Xu Qiao was silent, looked at him and nodded.
“I thought about it, this is my fault. I made the pregnancy plan too detailed and too solemn to give you such a lot of pressure. Let’s just let it go, okay?”
“Then we are not pregnant?” She blinked.
“Want to drink?” Cheng Lang asked with a smile.
“No!” Xu Qiao shook his head, “I have lost my work, and I have to start from the beginning again to get pregnant again. It’s not a good deal! Endure it, you endure it for me, like tobacco and alcohol!”
“Okay, listen to you. Quitting smoking and drinking should be treated as health care. We will not make other plans for the time being.”
“Oh.” Xu Qiao nodded.
“When the sky falls, I will bear it, not to mention it’s just raining.” Cheng Lang rubbed the top of her hair. “Tomorrow weekend, will you take you out for fun?”
“Where are you going?” Xu Qiao regained her starry eyes.
“I’ll tell you tomorrow morning.”
“I won’t buy it if it’s not enough surprise.” Xu Qiao smiled and hugged him, and walked out of the nightmare completely.
