Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Chapter 414

Wait a minute?

Zhong Ruyi was stunned for a long time until the doctor wrote out a prescription and asked her to take it to the next door to get the medicine. Then she finally reacted.

Prenatal pills?

She's not stupid. She knows that the pregnancy-preserving medicine is for pregnant women. But she? Give her the medicine?

Zhong Ruyi looked down at her flat belly and her eyes met with Kang Kang who was eating a candied haws with a clueless look on his face.

She was a little at a loss, not knowing how to react, and could only sit on the stool in front of the doctor's desk in a daze.

After finishing his candied haws, Kang Kang didn't urge her and just sat beside her and waited obediently.

It was only when the doctor tapped the table gently that she came back to her senses.

"Miss, do you have anything else to ask? If not, just give up your seat to someone else?" the doctor asked her. Zhong Ruyi felt a little embarrassed. She stood up and saw that there were indeed a few people queuing behind her.

Among them was a woman with a big belly. She was accompanied by her husband, who should be her husband. They were talking in a low voice with sweet expressions on their faces. The man's eyes fell on the woman's belly, his eyes were full of joy for the coming of new life. The woman also touched her belly from time to time. The expressions of both of them were exactly the same, full of joy and anticipation.

Looking forward to it. Zhong Ruyi thought she should also be looking forward to it.

But on second thought, what will happen to Chen Dongzhi? Will he be like this couple?

Zhong Ruyi felt that this was a little hard to say, after all, his expression of resistance in previous years was still vivid in her mind.

After going next door to get her prescription and pay the bill, she was still a little confused and felt something was not real.

"Aunt." Kang Kang pulled her hand and pointed to a woman holding a child in front of her and said, "That seems to be my cousin."

Looking in the direction of his finger, Zhong Ruyi saw a child lying on the ground making a noise in front of the old man selling candied haws, and the woman next to him was reaching out to pull him up.

Looking at her from the side, it was indeed Zhang Mingzhu.

I saw a little boy over two years old lying on the ground, crying and making a fuss, regardless of his image. No matter how Zhang Mingzhu coaxed him, he refused to leave.

The old man selling candied haws tried to stuff one into his hand, but was stopped by Zhang Mingzhu and he just stood aside and watched the mother and son making a fuss.

Zhang Mingzhu, who was sweating from coaxing a child, turned around when she was called "cousin" and saw Zhong Ruyi standing behind her holding her third cousin's son.

"Ruyi? How come you have time to come to town?" She wiped the sweat from her head and ignored her son on the ground.

"I haven't been here for a long time, so I came to see you." As for the fact that she was pregnant, she hadn't yet fully digested it so it was better not to announce it to the public for the time being.

The candied haws man took the opportunity to give the candied haws in his hand to the little boy on the ground, and asked Zhang Mingzhu for money, "Your son has already taken a bite, so I can't give it back to you."

Quite confident.

Zhang Mingzhu had no choice but to give him a few copper coins.

The little boy who ate the candied haws was finally happy. He held the candied haws and called out "Aunt Zhong Ruyi" and "Brother Kang Kang" incoherently.

Zhong Ruyi smiled and touched his head, and the two of them walked towards the restaurant holding the child's hands.

"Liuliu has damaged his teeth from eating candies all day long. His family has made a rule for him that he can only eat one piece of candy a day. But today, I happened to take him out alone, and he got so upset that he kept crying and making a fuss." Zhang Mingzhu sighed and glanced at her son who was walking between them and talking to Kang Kang with his head tilted to the side.

Zhong Ruyi also looked at Liuliu, Zhang Mingzhu's son. He was given this nickname because he weighed 6.6 jin when he was born. Dafeng's family gave him the nickname Liuliu in the belief that a child with a humble name would be easier to raise.

She whispered, "Before you go to bed at night, secretly ask your cousin's husband to find a small insect. When Liuliu wakes up the next morning, show it to him and say that it escaped from his mouth last night. Several children in the family have used this method, and now they dare not eat too much candy."

"Does it really work?" Zhang Mingzhu looked at her doubtfully.

"You'll know if you try it."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the restaurant.

Kang Kang pulled her hand and said, "Aunt, uncle is waiting for us."

Zhong Ruyi looked up and saw that the person waiting for him at the restaurant door was Chen Dongzhi.

When people came up to him, he complained quietly, "I told you I would go with you, but you refused."

She just smiled and let him take the things in her hand without saying anything.

After lunch, Chen Dongzhi went out and bought everything he needed, and the three of them prepared to go back.

Zhang Mingzhu held Liuliu in her arms and waved at them, "Remember to come to my house to find me next time you come!"

She was too bored at home. Once Dafeng went out, she would be away for nearly half a month. At night, Liuliu would sleep with her parents-in-law. She would help take care of the baby during the day. Usually, it was her mother-in-law who took care of the baby.

It would be nice if I could stay in Xinghua Village for a few days like I did before I got married.

Zhong Ruyi said yes, took Kang Kang's hand, and walked away side by side with Chen Dongzhi.

The prescribed medicine was mixed with the rice, flour, salt and sugar, and Chen Dongzhi didn't look at it carefully.

But when Zhong Ruyi was looking for the medicine stove at night, he asked puzzledly, "What do you need the medicine stove for? Did you go to see a doctor today?" So you need to find a medicine stove to decoct medicine?

She hasn't told me about her pregnancy since she came back, and I don't know how to bring it up.

While he was squatting down to look for the medicine stove, Zhong Ruyi leaned over him and whispered in his ear, "I'm pregnant."

Chen Dongzhi nodded. "Just pregnant? That's good. Where is the medicine? Bring it to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole kitchen became quiet in an instant, and the man squatted on the ground motionless.

.

"...Pregnant?" Chen Dongzhi asked in a trembling voice after a long time. He still maintained a squatting position, fearing that he would accidentally touch the person behind him.

Zhong Ruyi could feel the man lying on her body gradually becoming stiff. She was a little helpless, "Yes, I'm pregnant. The doctor said it's been more than a month."

She got off him, squatted face to face with him, held his bewildered face, and said word by word, "Pregnant!"

...

The two of them sat face to face at the table, and Chen Dongzhi was still in a trance, immersed in his own world.

He still couldn't figure out why she got pregnant even though she always wore a burp bag.

His eyes fell on her still flat belly and he closed his eyes. "What did the doctor say? Do you need to stay in bed and rest?"

Chen Dongzhi still remembers that there were blood stains on the underwear she washed that day. It turned out that it was not her period, but the result of miscarriage.

Seeing that his hands were shaking, Zhong Ruyi patted his shoulder and said, "It's nothing, the doctor said you'll be fine after taking the medicine."

Seeing how worried he was, it was a good thing he didn’t say that while eating, otherwise he would definitely not be able to eat.

Ugh.

At this moment, Chen Dongzhi still had a sense of unreality as if his feet were not on the ground. He kept recalling in his mind when the bag broke and he didn't notice it.

Now that things have come to this, he can't go back to that day, and there is no point in regretting.

She soon told Chen's mother and Zhong's mother who had returned from vacation about her pregnancy.

The two of them instantly became excited. Zhong's mother even stopped going to help out at the stewed food store and just wanted to move in and take care of her daily life.

"This is your first child, so you should be more careful! Mom can come over and help you with the laundry and cooking!"

Chen's mother also wanted to move in. "The rabbits at home are being looked after by Xiaoxue and Xiaozheng now. I can't help. Why don't I come and do some chores like washing clothes and sweeping the floor for you?"

Xiaoxue got engaged to Zhao Xiaozheng last year. The two families are now getting closer, and the rabbits were given to Zhao Xiaozheng to raise.

The two of them were vying to come over. Zhong Ruyi really wanted to say that in fact, most of the laundry and cooking work at home was done by Chen Dongzhi. Now that you guys are here, he will have nothing to do. What if he has wild thoughts all day long?
