Chapter 512: Yuke is Pregnant

~8 min read 1,543 words

Love is not a solid.

It is not that if you give it to another, the original amount will decrease.

Love is like a gas, a formless, colorless, and odorless power that can nonetheless be felt.

Shi Ran began to like her younger brother, and in the process, her sense of responsibility was invisibly cultivated.

……

Grandfather came to the house to see his little grandson.

Besides bringing fresh vegetables he had grown himself and free-range chicken eggs, Shi Yucheng also spent a large sum of money to buy high-quality Blood Bird's Nest to bring over!

He also gave Sheng Zichen a thick red envelope.

Shi Yucheng coming to see his grandson should have been a very happy occasion, but there was always a deep, lingering sorrow between his brows.

Father has something on his mind.

Shi Youxuan asked him what was wrong.

He covered it up, saying it was nothing, that nothing had happened.

There must be something; Father just didn't want her to know, fearing she would worry.

Her father's abnormality could not escape Shi Youxuan's eyes, and she said to him, "Don't try to hide it from me. If you don't tell me voluntarily, I will definitely find a way to know."

Seeing that he could not hide it, Shi Yucheng told the truth.

Yuke is pregnant.

She was already six months along with a big belly before it was discovered, and the director of the mental hospital sent someone to invite Shi Yucheng over to discuss what to do!

No one knows who the child's father is, and Yuke herself doesn't know either.

Yuke had been harmed by Bai Xue in her early years so that she could not conceive, but unexpectedly, she was suddenly pregnant!

Shi Yucheng was very conflicted.

If this child were to be kept, the father is unknown, and the mother is mentally ill; she has absolutely no ability to raise him.

And he himself is old and sick; now his life is taken care of by his second daughter, so when the child is born, it will inevitably become a burden to her.

If the two sisters had a good relationship, he could still bring himself to ask for Shi Youxuan's attitude.

But after things had turned out the way they did back then, Shi Yucheng really didn't have the face to speak to Shi Youxuan!

Shi Youxuan asked, "Father, you want to keep that child, right?"

Shi Yucheng didn't make a sound; he neither nodded nor shook his head.

It was basically equivalent to tacit consent.

Regardless of who the child's father is, Yuke's own flesh and blood is also a continuation of Shi Yucheng's lineage; from this perspective, he naturally hoped the child could be kept.

Thus, she understood in her heart.

She said to her father, "How about this: let her give birth to the child, you take care of it now, and after you are gone, I will take care of it."

"From now on, I will be responsible for all her expenses, and I will arrange the hospital for the birth and the postpartum care center."

The hospital for the birth is easy to handle; it can be done at Jian Family Hospital.

Lady Jian would not be jealous of Yuke.

And because her relationship with Yuke is not good, there is absolutely no worry about Lady Jian retaliating.

The postpartum care center is even easier to find; the one she used is quite good, and everyone had put a lot of thought into finding it back then.

All the experience Shi Youxuan gained while pregnant with Xiao Erbao can be borrowed by Yuke; she can enjoy the ready-made arrangements!

Shi Yucheng had been worried about this matter, and now his second daughter had solved his worries.

He was so happy he couldn't close his mouth.

……

Xiao Erbao Sheng Zichen is one month old.

Shi Youxuan stood in front of the mirror, looking at her round face and figure that was clearly a size larger, and wailed, "Heavens! I'm done for!"

Sheng Hanyu comforted her from behind: "This is just right; you were too thin before."

She was indeed too thin before, but now is not "just right" either!

She looked distressed: "A good woman shouldn't weigh over a hundred jin, and I'm one hundred and thirty jin now, oh my god!"

Sheng Hanyu: "If a good woman doesn't weigh over a hundred, she's either flat-chested or short."

Shi Youxuan: ……

She is one meter seven tall, so actually, she looks fine now.

Sheng Hanyu felt that a bit of meat was better.

But the feelings of a woman and a man are always different.

She wants to lose weight.

During this postpartum month, Shi Youxuan gained a full thirty jin.

She was about to have a breakdown.

Before pregnancy, Shi Youxuan had always maintained a weight under ninety jin, and she weighed herself once right before giving birth to Xiao Erbao: one hundred jin.

Throughout the entire pregnancy, she basically didn't gain any fat on her body; all the weight went to her belly, and all the nutrition was absorbed by Xiao Erbao.

As a result, she gained thirty jin all at once during the postpartum month; it was too terrifying.

She prepared to lose weight and called Jian Yixin to ask if she had any good places to recommend for weight loss.

Jian Yixin quickly said, "Yes, whenever you want to go, I'll go with you."

The two agreed on a time, and Shi Youxuan prepared to go out.

Her mother-in-law stopped her, warning her with concern: "You're going out with Yixin again? Don't get too close to her; the last incident scared the soul out of me, and I can't take it if it happens again."

Shi Youxuan: "Mom, didn't Hanyu tell you that that woman has already been sent away?"

Lady Jian has been taken to the United States by Jian Yining.

She has already been gone for half a month, just to prevent her from causing any more trouble in the country.

The relationship between the Sheng Family and the Jian Family is actually very complicated.

Their businesses are all intertwined, deeply rooted and tangled, interlocking like dog teeth.

Lady Jian meddles in the middle, making things very difficult for the Jian Family.

Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan have both tolerated her time and again for the sake of the siblings, but she does not know how to repent and has become increasingly excessive, even daring to set her sights on Xiao Erbao.

Therefore, after Jian Yixin and her brother discussed it, Jian Yining took their mother away.

They were afraid that if she stayed at home, she would cause more trouble, and by then, no one would be able to protect her!

"She's gone?"

Wang Yinghao breathed a sigh of relief.

Thus, she no longer blocked her, and let Shi Youxuan go out.

The two met in front of a shopping mall, and after meeting, Jian Yixin's appearance made Shi Youxuan incredibly envious: "Yixin, you've lost weight again. I'm so envious of you; I'm about to die from being fat!"

Jian Yixin glared at her, making no secret of her disdain for Shi Youxuan: "Yours is healthy fat, mine is sickly thin. You're actually envious of this? You really are simple-minded."

Being called simple-minded, she did not get angry.

She even reminded Jian Yixin: "The full-month banquet is in two days, have you prepared the gift?"

The two families had originally agreed that the full-month banquet and the Ganqin ceremony would be held together.

Jian Yixin was shocked: "Is what we discussed last time still valid?"

"What, do you want to go back on your word?"

She hurriedly waved her hands: "No, no, of course I'm not going back on it, it's just... will your parents-in-law agree?"

Jian Yixin now increasingly feels that her mother's actions were not proper.

Her mother's narrow-mindedness only serves to highlight Shi Youxuan's broad-mindedness.

Originally, she and her husband didn't dare to think about the Ganqin ceremony anymore, assuming it was one hundred percent off the table.

As a result, Shi Youxuan said it still counted; this was a huge surprise, and she had no mental preparation at all.

Shi Youxuan: "They don't need to agree; it's our child, we have the final say."

She hadn't discussed it with her parents-in-law, nor did she think they would have any objections, but it actually did cause some unpleasantness.

The weight-loss place was inside the mall; it was a yoga studio specially opened for postpartum mothers who were still breastfeeding!

The studio has scientific exercise methods and also provides students with nutritional recipes.

It can ensure the infant's nutrition during the breastfeeding period without providing the mother with excess fat.

Shi Youxuan was very satisfied with this yoga studio and immediately paid the fees and set the time for her next visit.

The two hadn't seen each other for a while; because of her mother's affairs, Jian Yixin had been too embarrassed to go to the house to see Shi Youxuan.

And Shi Youxuan had neglected her because she was in confinement and taking care of the child.

Shi Youxuan invited her to the house to see her godson.
