Chapter 988: Bad luck only seeks out the poor
"Mr. Lu, what are your thoughts on changing diapers for babies?"
Shen Lu used her hand as a microphone to interview Lu Xingye.
Lu Xingye smiled helplessly: "Taking care of a baby is very tedious, even more difficult than work."
"If Mr. Lu has a baby in the future, will he take care of everything for the baby himself?"
Shen Lu's words were ill-intentioned even before they were asked.
Lu Xingye looked at her and answered seriously: "If I have time, I will do it myself; if I don't have time, I will leave it to the nanny."
"I won't let you suffer."
He wouldn't lie; he told Shen Lu that he would definitely do it personally.
He manages such a large group and is very busy, so he may not be able to take care of his children every day.
Even Shen Jidong couldn't stay at home taking care of the children forever.
"Moreover, if I have the time, I'd rather spend it with you."
The baby is nowhere in sight, but the fiancée is someone you can see and touch.
However, he certainly wouldn't let Shen Lu do these things herself.
Especially bending over to change a baby's diaper, wouldn't that cause back pain?
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness, Mr. Lu." Shen Lu smiled and withdrew her hand.
After taking care of the baby, the two strolled around for a few more minutes before finally returning the child to their home.
Shen Jidong and Jenny have already finished eating.
However, neither of them moved at this moment; instead, it was the old lady who came forward.
"Oh my, my precious great-grandson, come quick!"
"Grandma, please don't hold the baby, he's asleep." Shen Lu quickly stopped her from holding the baby.
This child is a good eater and sleeper. He cries when he poops and feels uncomfortable, but falls asleep after we change him and take him for a walk.
The old lady was not happy: "This child, it's such a rare day with so much fun, why is he asleep? He should be up and playing."
Shen Luxin thought to herself, "No wonder even my own mother can't stand this guy."
Children need to sleep well to gain weight.
The old woman was only concerned with showing off her child; she treated the child as a toy and a treasure to soothe her loneliness.
“If you sleep well, you’ll grow well. You should be happy,” Shen Lu couldn’t help but say.
"You're the child's great-grandmother, so you must want him to grow up well, right?"
The old woman choked. Of course, she couldn't stop the child from growing up. This girl was just as annoying as the seventh girl.
However, considering that Shen Lu had introduced her grandson to this wonderful girl, allowing him to acquire such a treasure, she decided not to hold it against her.
Shen Lu had no idea what the old lady was thinking.
As long as she doesn't cause trouble, it's fine.
Jenny gave Shen Lu a thumbs up from the side.
She wasn't actually afraid of offending the old lady.
However, as a granddaughter-in-law, there are some things that are not easy to say.
Fortunately, she was a foreigner and sometimes spoke too directly, but the old lady comforted herself by saying it was because of cultural differences.
As for arguing, we definitely won't argue.
Shen Jidong wouldn't let his grandmother go too far.
Jenny also knew her limits.
Just then, Shen Lu's phone rang; it was Feng Tian and the others who had arrived.
"LuLu, we've arrived at your village, but there's nobody here."
Shen Xuejiao was driving when Feng Tian made the phone call.
Shen Lu posted the location of Shen Jidong's house.
Shen Xuejiao and Feng Tian said they were coming, probably after noon, so Shen Lu asked the kitchen to prepare some dishes.
They were almost there, so Shen Lu went to the kitchen to have someone heat it up.
Actually, most of the dishes are placed in a steamer, so there's really no need to worry about them getting cold.
As soon as the three arrived, Shen Lu called them to eat.
Shen Xuejiao and Feng Tian were not polite at all, while Wei Mingming seemed a bit more reserved.
"This young man is quite handsome, and he's a good match for my granddaughter."
An old woman was sizing up Wei Mingming.
Wei Mingming's ears turned red.
Feng Tian quickly took Wei Mingming's hand: "Grandma, aren't we a good match?"
When the old lady saw that the man was already taken, she chuckled and said, "Oh dear, yes, yes, it's my old eyes that are failing me."
“I was just joking. My granddaughter is already working, so your boyfriend is really a bit too young for her.”
Shen Lu had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she conducted free medical consultations in the village.
Since the old men and women had nothing else to do, they took turns having their pulses taken by her.
Lu Xingye learned how to make wild mushroom sauce from his second aunt, while Shen Xuejiao, Feng Tian, and Wei Mingming went to the mountains with Xiao Shitou to join in the fun.
It's all about picking mushrooms; what you find isn't important, the point is to have fun.
Moreover, there are still some wild fruits in the mountains that we can pick and eat.
Children love to go up the mountain, but adults often don't allow them to.
This time, a few useless older sisters and brothers finally came to lead the way, and the children all rushed into the mountains.
Shen Xuejiao and the others brought snacks and candies, filling the children's pockets to the brim.
"The children in Lulu's village are so lucky; they can go up the mountain to play every day."
Feng Tian watched the children rushing into the mountains and said enviously.
They knew all the wild fruits in the mountains like the back of their hand, while he himself spent most of his childhood fighting with people at the martial arts school.
The feeling was completely different.
When Shen Lu examined the elderly, she found that most of the elderly in the village were in good health, and any ailments they had were minor.
However, the women in the village have some problems, more or less.
Since it's not a big city, many things haven't been properly publicized, so Shen Lu gave them a prescription.
These are all medicinal herbs that can be found in the mountains, boiled into a decoction and washed.
For more serious cases, oral medication can be taken. In the most severe case, Shen Lu suggested that she go to the hospital for a check-up.
“Traditional Chinese medicine can also treat this, but I think this disease has been bothering you for a long time. Going to the hospital for a check-up and having surgery would be better.”
Shen Lu should be calling this person "auntie".
This aunt's problem probably started after she gave birth.
"I don't have much time to treat you. You should go to the hospital for a check-up and then have the surgery."
"This disease is nothing serious."
The aunt was somewhat flustered.
Others advised her, "Qin Xiang, you shouldn't worry about the child all the time. You should take good care of yourself."
"That's right, Ah Xiang, go get checked out. If it really doesn't work, I'll go with you."
“I’ll go too. Didn’t the young clan leader say that we women should have a gynecological check-up every year?”
"Let's go to a hospital in a big city for a checkup!"
Qin Xiang was a woman with a tragic fate.
Even though the villagers of Shenjia Village were not short of money, Qin Xiang's husband died young.
Her child was born posthumously, so she risked her life to give birth to the child.
Unfortunately, her childbirth was not smooth. She couldn't give birth naturally at home and had to be taken to the town hospital for a cesarean section.
Qin Xiang's family only has one mother-in-law, and it seems that the men in that branch of the family don't live long.
Her mother-in-law helps her take care of the baby, but she still has to support the whole family.
Everyone advised her to stop farming, since they had plenty of money, but Qin Xiang always wanted to be stubborn.
Looking back now, Qin Xiang's illness must have tormented her for many years.
Because I didn't get enough rest after giving birth.
Later, she may have developed a gynecological disease, and her body odor became unpleasant, making her even more self-conscious and unwilling to get too close to others.
