Chapter 382: Was she with Si Rong in her past life?

She bent over and dry-heaved twice.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Cheng asked hurriedly.

Si Rong waved her hand and pointed at the mutton soup on the table, "Quick, take this bowl of soup away!"

"Alright! I'll take the soup away!" Jiang Aiguo immediately picked up the mutton soup, then remembered this was the dish his mother had ordered and added, "Mom, are you going to eat at the entrance or pack it to take home?"

Old Madam Jiang:...

She glared at Si Rong in disbelief, "Is she the ancestor you brought home to the Jiang Family? Is being pregnant such a big deal!"

It's not like she hadn't been pregnant before; what was with all the affectation!

Pregnant?

Hu Qian suddenly reacted; her daughter-in-law really did look like she was having morning sickness just now. She was truly too careless.

Her daughter-in-law was pregnant?

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment. After their wedding night, he had originally gone to the hospital to get some contraceptives, but Rongrong wouldn't let him use them.

So soon, were they pregnant? Was he going to be a father?

Jiang Yu: Great, great! The Jiang Family is finally going to flourish!

Old Madam Jiang:...

Did these people, one by one, even see her dissatisfaction?

No.

Hu Qian took Si Rong's hand and asked in detail about her physical condition, "Are you feeling better now? Is there anywhere else that feels uncomfortable?"

"Should we go to the hospital to have a look?" Jiang Cheng bent down, ready to pick her up.

"Right! Go to the hospital!"

Si Rong knew they were worried about her, but a whole table of food had just been served, and it would be a waste if they left without eating.

"I'm fine, it's much better now that I can't smell the mutton soup," Si Rong pushed Jiang Cheng, "You sit back down first, let's eat first!"

She also really hoped she was pregnant, praying that it was still her two little treasures from her past life.

After confirming again and again that Si Rong had no other discomfort, the family finally began to eat.

After finishing the meal, Old Madam Jiang began to express her "experienced" views again.

"Women shouldn't be so delicate. Getting pregnant and having babies is just a natural thing. Why go to the hospital for a check-up? Isn't that a waste of money?"

"Back in our day, those working in the fields gave birth right at the edge of the field, and those cooking in the kitchen gave birth right at home. After giving birth, you just went back to doing whatever you were supposed to do."

"Nainai, was it because my great-grandmother let you do whatever you were supposed to do after giving birth?" Jiang Cheng asked.

Old Madam Jiang nodded busily, thinking that this eldest grandson, who had always been stubborn, had been persuaded by her, "Yes, yes! She didn't even cook a meal for me! I did everything all by myself!"

"Then it's no wonder you always cursed my great-grandmother for being an old hag! And then, after cursing her, she died..."

Old Madam Jiang:...

She immediately wanted to take off her shoe to teach Jiang Cheng a lesson, but was held back by Jiang Aiguo, "Mom, stop making a scene, I'll take you home first."

"Wife, you guys go to the hospital first, I'll go right after!"

Before Old Madam Jiang could react, she was dragged home by her filial son.

"Hey! I still have a bowl of mutton soup left, bring it for me..."

Over here, Hu Qian and the others accompanied Si Rong to the hospital. Unlike the nineties, Huaiyang Hospital had not yet introduced ultrasounds and only used urine tests for pregnant women.

"Congratulations!" After waiting for more than ten minutes, the nurse held the test results and said, "This comrade is already one and a half months pregnant."

"One and a half months?" Hu Qian was overjoyed, "Comrade, thank you!"

Si Rong touched her stomach; because there was no ultrasound, she didn't know if she was carrying twins.

She would have to wait until the months were further along to confirm. Experienced gynecologists could use a stethoscope to listen for the fetal heartbeat.

On the way home, Hu Qian held Si Rong's arm and talked about her plans.

"Now that there's a little baby, we need to prepare some cotton. It's hard to buy in winter and expensive, so I'll have your father go exchange for some cotton coupons later and get it ready in advance."

"You're pregnant now, counting by nine months, there are still more than seven months until the birth. That will be around next spring; the child will be smart, and the weather will be neither cold nor hot."

"But we still need to sew two small thin quilts to have ready, and make two sets of small clothes, plus diapers and such."

Si Rong listened quietly, "Mom, thank you for your trouble."

Although her mother-in-law's cooking wasn't very good, fortunately, she was thoughtful, and her needlework was quite good.

"We're family, don't talk like strangers! You're pregnant now, if you want to eat or drink anything, don't be polite with Mom," Hu Qian said softly, "Mom is also a mother-in-law for the first time. If there's anything I don't do well, just tell me directly. If I can change it, I will, and if I can't, you'll just have to bear with it a little."

Si Rong:...

"Alright then."

However, Hu Qian was a relatively easy-going mother-in-law; the only thing she probably had to bear with was Hu Qian's cooking.

Other than that, everything else was fine.

"Then what do you think of Mom's cooking? Tell the truth!" Hu Qian followed up and asked.

Si Rong:...

Is this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law heart-to-heart time?

Then she could only tell the truth, "It's as bad as the food I make."

Hu Qian laughed out loud, then pulled her arm, "I am indeed not good at cooking, but don't worry, when you are in your confinement month, our family will invite a distant relative over to cook for you."

Si Rong subconsciously thought of Wu Shen from her past life. She didn't know when Wu Shen had come to the Jiang Family in her past life, but in this life, she had become the catalyst for it.

"Brother, you're about to be a dad, why do you look unhappy?" Jiang Yu said, draping his arm over his brother's shoulder.

Jiang Cheng wasn't actually unhappy.

Si Rong was pregnant and was about to give birth to the crystallization of love between the two of them. That child would have eyes and brows similar to both of them.

It was pretty good.

Child...

For some reason, he only thought about it for a moment, and two children quickly appeared in his mind.

They looked to be about seven or eight years old, Si Rong was holding their hands, one on each side, and then they turned their heads to look at him together, but Jiang Cheng could not see the faces of those two children very clearly.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Cheng held his forehead as the image before his eyes gradually faded, "I'm fine, Jiang Yu, do you often see some images?"

"What?"

"Just some images that feel like they don't belong to this, this era; they are very familiar, as if I had experienced them myself before."

Jiang Yu tilted her head and scrutinized him, "Brother, have you been possessed by something?"

"Get lost!"

Jiang Cheng, however, felt that there was a lot of warmth in those images he saw; could that be his past life?

Was he together with Si Rong in his past life? Were those two their children?

If so, then he must have lived a very happy life.

Unlike her pregnancy in the past life, this time it seemed that starting from that bowl of mutton soup, Si Rong had severe morning sickness.

She could not stand the smell of any cooking oil or smoke, and Hu Qian personally watched Jiang Aiguo prepare the meals she ate, from reducing the salt little by little to later just boiling the vegetables in plain water.

She could not eat even a little bit of things like fish, shrimp, or meat.
