Chapter 124 Is this baby a little too small?
Dr. Wang rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky; his son had ultimately become someone else's.
After Li Mo'er finished breakfast, she and Doctor Wang went to visit Jishetang.
As soon as Dr. Wang opened the door, she looked around and touched everything. This was much better than her small clinic.
She nodded in satisfaction. "Tomorrow, I'll get ready to move in."
Li Mo'er smiled without saying a word, simply following behind Doctor Wang.
When Doctor Wang walked to the small courtyard at the back and pushed open the door, he saw neatly arranged bedding and all the necessary daily necessities.
She couldn't help but open her mouth; it turned out everything was prepared.
Seeing that she didn't move, Li Mo'er assumed that she was disgusted that this was left behind by the previous person.
"Mother, all these things are new, and the bedding was all made by Jingmo himself."
Doctor Wang's eyes welled up with tears; Jingmo had indeed made the right choice in marrying him.
She thought she would live out her days alone in Lijia Village.
The medicinal herbs here are quite complete. The owner of Jishetang was in a hurry to sell them, and hadn't had time to pack them up. In the past few days, she had some more replenished.
Dr. Wang is even staying here tonight, so he can open for business tomorrow.
While Doctor Wang strolled around the courtyard, Li Mo'er examined the medicinal herbs.
She noticed a separate drawer at the very bottom of the medicine cabinet, which was larger than the other smaller drawers.
Driven by curiosity, she opened the drawer and saw round, green objects about the size of jujubes.
She picked one up and examined it closely against the sun.
At this moment, Doctor Wang came out from the backyard and saw Li Mo'er holding a pregnancy fruit in her hand.
"Mo'er, who are you trying to get pregnant?"
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Li Mo'er dropped the pregnancy fruit in her hand to the ground. She hadn't expected that the pregnancy fruit would be in the clinic.
Doctor Wang explained to Li Mo'er that the pregnancy fruit was free, but all wives who came to collect it needed to register.
Every year, the clinic had to submit this record book to the government.
"When you and Yanli got married last time, you were the one who asked Yanli to go to my place to get it."
Li Mo'er was unaware of this matter; she guessed that Su Yanli must have gone to Doctor Wang herself to ask for it.
Li Mo'er picked up the "pregnant fruit" and examined it carefully. It was clearly a winter jujube, so how could it be a "pregnant fruit"?
She even wanted to try it to see if it tasted the same as a jujube.
Doctor Wang quickly snatched it from Li Mo'er's hands, saying, "Women can't eat this."
Li Mo'er, having her thoughts read, awkwardly touched her nose.
Doctor Wang counted out three from the drawer and handed them to Li Mo'er, saying, "If you want to have a child, make them eat the pregnancy fruit."
"how to eat?"
Li Mo'er was genuinely curious.
Dr. Wang looked at her like she was an idiot, "You can eat whatever you want."
Seeing that Doctor Wang was going to find the record book to make a note of it, Li Mo'er quickly put the pregnancy testicle on the table.
"Mother, let's not rush this year. Let's talk about it in two years."
Although Dr. Wang was puzzled, she did not insist, as the matter of the child was their own decision.
Doctor Wang had already decided to stay at Jishetang, so Li Mo'er went to Li's Fine Salt Shop.
As soon as Li Mo'er left, Doctor Wang scratched his head and muttered, "I feel like there are some things I forgot to remind her of."
Not many farmers came to buy salt, since although salt is a necessity, it is not something that needs to be bought every day.
The biggest source of income here is the restaurants, which have a high monthly demand.
Recently, she also let Uncle Li and Aunt Li rest. After finishing the tasks on those contracts, they should take a break.
Too much salt can easily become damp.
She needs to find a market for this fine salt as soon as possible. Recently, Li Lin has gone to restaurants in nearby cities to discuss cooperation with them.
For the surrounding areas, let them cooperate with Li's Fine Salt first. For places that are more distant, such as Kyoto, we will have to wait until the factory in Hutou Mountain is built.
Shen Mansion —
The four men sat around in the courtyard again, and Wang Jingmo stroked Su Yanli's belly with envy.
"Is this baby almost six months old?"
Su Yanli recalled carefully and realized that almost half a year had passed without her noticing.
Now, they often get together to dream about a bright future.
"When this baby turns two, I'll ask Mo'er to give me a baby too."
Shen Zicen stared at Su Yanli's belly with envy.
The man believed that only by bearing children for his wife could his life be complete and could love be truly expressed.
Moreover, they also hope to have a child of their own, someone to accompany them as they grow up.
"Two years, that will go by quickly."
Su Yanli gazed at the artificial hill in the distance, lost in thought.
The other three exchanged glances and nodded in unison.
Little did they know that this "two years" would mean waiting for two more years.
As evening fell, Li Mo'er helped Su Yanli take a walk in the courtyard.
Moving around more helps with production.
This is the only knowledge Li Mo'er has learned about pregnancy so far.
Li Mo'er touched Su Yanli's belly, which wasn't very big yet. She wondered if the baby would be thinner than other babies from birth.
Although she had been putting a lot of food on his plate at the dinner table these past few days, his belly hadn't gotten any bigger.
"Yanli, isn't this baby a little too small?"
After hesitating for a long time, Li Mo'er finally asked the question.
She was really worried about the baby's condition.
Su Yanli smiled gently, "Dr. Wang said the baby is fine."
Li Mo'er stopped dragging Su Yanli for walks, worried that the little bit of weight the baby had worked so hard to gain would be wasted walking.
Once the baby gets a little chubby, we can take them out more often.
Li Mo'er helped Su Yanli back to his room, fetched water for him, and let him soak his feet.
Su Yanli quickly stood up from the bed, "Mo'er, I... I don't need it."
There's no reason for a wife to serve her husband.
Li Mo'er pulled Su Yanli to sit down, "Yanli, there are no formalities with me, I only know that I want to be good to you."
His actions made Li Mo'er feel sorry for him, and it was also inconvenient for her to be pregnant.
When Li Mo'er washed Su Yanli's feet, he didn't say a word, only his eyes were slightly red.
This gentle Mo'er has been like this for half a year now. The Li Mo'er of the past was like a dream he had, even that time...
