Chapter 322 Two Mothers Take Care of Her

Doctor Hu stroked his beard, picked up his pen, and wrote a small prescription while saying, "Don't worry too much. Just relax in your daily life."

"Go out for walks more often when you have free time."

Recalling how anxious Jiang Shuqian had been about her earlier, Wen Luozhi felt a little guilty.

The herbs were all very common, and Xie He soon went to Doctor Hu's place to get them, brewed them, and brought them into the house.

"Qianqian, how about we go stay in town?" Xie He said cautiously.

Knowing that Jiang Shuqian was a sensitive person and afraid that she would overthink things, she quickly added, "The village has limited resources after all. If anything happens, I'll worry that I won't be able to take good care of you."

In situations like today, fortunately, there is still a traditional Chinese medicine doctor named Hu in the village.

But it's inconvenient to get medicine; if I want to get some good tonics, I have to go to town.

Furthermore, her daughter-in-law came from a wealthy family, and as her mother-in-law, she felt bad that her daughter-in-law had to stay in the countryside while pregnant.

"No need, Mother, it's fine here," Jiang Shuqian shook her head slightly.

She's gotten used to life in the village; when she has free time, she goes upstairs to read or goes downstairs to the yard to water the flowers.

Her two sisters-in-law treated her like their own sisters and never let her do any work, which made her feel like a lazybones.

Everyone in her family treated her very well, and if others knew she had gone to town, they would inevitably gossip about her behind her back.

Xie He felt this was inappropriate and was about to speak when Wen Luozhi, who was outside the door, came in:

“Let’s go to town, Fourth Sister-in-law, it’ll be more convenient,” she said, her tone leaving no room for refusal.

"Madam Jiang and Master Jiang haven't seen you in a long time; they must miss you dearly."

When his parents were mentioned, Jiang Shuqian opened his mouth but didn't say anything, so he just smiled and nodded.

They agreed to go to town, so they immediately started packing. Mo Niang and Xie He naturally wanted to go with them.

If something happens at home, Mo Niang can take care of Xie He and still come back.

"Mother, the two boys are still young, why don't you stay at home?"

Thinking of Wen Jinyu and Wen Jinchen, who were still very young, Jiang Shuqian paused in packing her things.

My older brother is usually quite busy, so my sister-in-law takes care of the children most of the time, which must be very tiring.

Moreover, she felt bad that it was too much of a fuss to ask several people to take care of her just because she was pregnant.

Xie He waved his hand dismissively, "Those two boys are very well-behaved. They eat their fill and then sleep, they don't cry or fuss at all, they're easy to take care of!"

"Besides, your second brother is almost fully recovered now, and your second sister-in-law always helps out."

Yang Guilan, who was watering the flowers outside, chimed in, "Mother, you can rest assured and take your fourth sister-in-law to town. My eldest sister-in-law and I will take care of things at home."

There was not a trace of complaint or dissatisfaction in Yang Guilan's words. Although Xie He was a bit harsh on them, he still loved his daughter-in-law very much.

At least the daughter-in-law doesn't have to do any work during her postpartum period; the mother-in-law will personally take care of her.

When we were poor, we would even borrow brown sugar to cook eggs for them.

She remembers all these good things; otherwise, she would have left long ago when her sister-in-law acted foolishly.

Li Chunxing was sunbathing with her child in the yard when she heard this and loudly echoed it.

Although Da Ya and Er Ya are daughters, their mother-in-law treated them well during their postpartum period, even though she said it was unfair.

My fourth sister-in-law is a pampered young lady, unlike the rest of us. The love and affection among the family is more important than anything else.

It is said that harmony in the family brings prosperity and a better life.

Now everyone in the village praises their family!

Jiang Shuqian was touched and silently remembered the kindness of her two sisters-in-law.

Xie He smiled and said, "Just focus on your pregnancy and don't worry about anything else."

She felt sorry for her fourth daughter-in-law, who had only been married a short time before her fourth son went out to make his way in the world.

The Jiang family only has one well-behaved daughter, so naturally they cherish her. As her mother-in-law, she can't afford to be any less loving towards her.

Before they even set off the next day, Jiang Zhaochuan and his wife had already arrived.

"Qianqian!" As soon as Madam Jiang saw Jiang Shuqian, she pulled her up and down to look her over.

Noticing she'd gained some weight, I jokingly remarked, "Grandma's cooking is definitely the best!"

"Look at that little face, it's gotten so round!"

Jiang Shu smiled faintly and couldn't help but raise her hand to touch her face.

Hmm? It seems there's a bit too much meat.

"Oh, Mother is about to have a little grandson!" Madam Jiang looked at her belly again, her face beaming with uncontainable joy.

Upon hearing that Xie He was going to take her daughter to town to rest during her pregnancy, Madam Jiang patted her hand and said, "Mother-in-law, why don't you just let Shuqian come back with us!"

You can't leave this house.

Madam Jiang looked at the things inside and outside the courtyard.

She didn't mean anything by it; she was just thinking that if someone went to town, it would be difficult to take care of the family.

There are two daughters-in-law in the family. I wonder if they will think too much about it?

Most importantly, she misses her daughter terribly; she wishes she could see her every day.

Her tone was somewhat hesitant, and Xie He squeezed her hand in return, saying, "My fourth son is lucky to marry Qianqian."

"Now that brat isn't around, I, as his mother, naturally have to make up for it!"

Madam Jiang was naturally delighted to hear this, and in the end, the two of them came up with a compromise.

That was when Madam Jiang led people to the small house they had bought, and the two mothers took care of Jiang Shuqian together.

With the matter settled, Jiang Shuqian listened to her mother-in-law and biological mother's arrangements and happily squinted her eyes.

Hearing that this family had a happy occasion, the aunties and grandmas from the village came to deliver gifts.

Jiang Shuqian accepted the gifts generously and then entertained them, completely unlike her previous timid and reserved demeanor at home.

Jiang Zhaochuan felt gratified to see the changes in his daughter; it seemed that his initial decision was correct.

The house had already been tidied up, and the group set off in the afternoon, heading straight to their lodgings in town.

The house was fully equipped with everything Wen Zi'an and Jiang Shuqian had acquired after their marriage, and Wen Luozhi immediately added many things to the property.

The furniture inside was all designed by her personally and then made by Zhou Shen. The flowers and plants in the yard were all brought from her home and specially planted by someone.

After walking around the house, Jiang Zhaochuan and his wife couldn't stop smiling.

Everything was very thoughtful, which shows that their daughter is really doing very well at home.

Madam Jiang was going home to get some things, and Jiang Shuqian wanted to go with her.

As they passed the Guo residence, Madam Jiang, who was getting some fresh air by lifting the carriage curtain, saw a young, plump woman clutching her back, cursing at a middle-aged woman on the ground:

"You can't even handle emptying the chamber pot properly, do you even want your son to be born?!"

Wang Amiao stood with one hand on her hip and the other on her stomach, her face filled with mockery and disdain.

If it weren't for her pregnancy, which was meant to bring good fortune to her son, she would never have agreed to let Lin Huaizhi go.

His mother is so clumsy at housework, she's not even as good as their old nanny! It's infuriating!

She made such a mess of her room just by emptying the chamber pot! What a useless piece of trash!

Just like that pretty boy Lin Huaizhi!

She's supposed to be at the Guo family's beck and call for three months! And she's already finding it hard to stand it on the very first day!

Zhang Chunhua, who was on the ground, flinched. She hadn't eaten for two days and had only drunk some water to soothe her stomach.

I was feeling really dizzy when I went to get the toilet paper from the room, and I lost my balance and knocked it over.
