Chapter 738: Chapter 737 Contentnt Brings Happiness!
Lu Zheng was the first to know Lin Xia’s water had broken, and he was so nervous that he’d never felt anything like it before!
“Wife! Sit by the bed and don’t move! I’ll go ask mom!”
Lin Xia obediently nodded, agreeing that in the current situation, her mother-in-law, who had experience in childbirth, should have the say.
“Ok! Hurry up! But keep your voice down so you don’t wake Grandpa!”
“I know!” Lu Zheng dashed out of the room in a hurry to fetch help, and Shao irou, wearing her pajamas, ran after him to their room.
Upon seeing Lin Xia, she quickly tried to soothe her, “Lin Xia! Don’t panic! It’s ok! Just because the water broke doesn’t an the baby will co right away! How does your body feel right now? Does your stomach hurt?”
She really hadn’t expected her daughter-in-law to show signs of labor so soon; there was still more than a week left until the due date! But then, giving birth sooner or later is normal!
Lin Xia licked her lips, trying to remain calm as she described her feelings, “My stomach doesn’t hurt that much! I just feel a bit sore and swollen in my lower back! And I really want to go to the bathroom!”
She had never had a child before, nor did she know what the symptoms would be like before giving birth.
Indeed, she had heard so stories, but those were other people’s experiences, not hers.
“No worries! Listen to , if you want to go to the bathroom, go! I’ll call your little aunt to ask!” Shao irou’s experience with childbirth was too old, and she was not sure if Lin Xia’s symptoms ant she was going into labor.
To be on the safe side, it was better to ask before rushing to the hospital.
Otherwise, it would be a waste to scramble in the dark for nothing, and it could be bad if Lin Xia beca too distressed.
“Ok!” Lin Xia actually wasn’t that panicked; she just felt a bit uneasy inside.
Lu Zheng took over the task of comforting her. He stayed by Lin Xia’s side, talking and making her laugh to ease her tension.
Their commotion also woke Lin Qiu and Lin Dong.
The siblings hurried to Lin Xia’s room, and when Lin Qiu heard that Lin Xia’s water had broken, she felt as if her heart was in knots.
She didn’t care about being a third wheel to her brother-in-law. She imdiately grabbed Lin Xia’s other hand and wouldn’t let go.
Lin Dong was restless, getting up from ti to ti to check if Shao irou was coming.
Shao irou ca back quickly, and her relaxed facial expression indicated that it wasn’t a serious problem.
“Lin Xia! Your little aunt said that just because you’re showing signs now doesn’t an you’re ready to give birth yet! We’ll have breakfast tomorrow morning and then go to the hospital for a checkup! However, be alert tonight. If you feel unbearable pain or discomfort in your stomach, we shouldn’t tough it out, but go straight to the hospital!”
“Ok! You guys should get so rest too!”
“Ok! You two try to get so sleep too!”
Lin Qiu, Lin Dong, and Shao irou left together, leaving Lin Xia and Lu Zheng in the room, both wide awake.
Lu Zheng joked with a smile, “Wife! Do you think the kids know I’m back and they’re eager to see ?”
“I bet they do!” Lin Xia looked down and gently stroked her round belly, a face full of tenderness, “You two were waiting for Daddy to co back, weren’t you? Don’t rush! Our family of four will be together very soon!”
“Wife! Lie down! I want to talk to the kids!”
Lin Xia did as told and slowly lay down, and Lu Zheng tenderly caressed her round belly, talking to the kids.
“Baobao! Are you two in a rush to see Daddy? You want to co out as soon as you see I’m back! Did you miss while Daddy was away? Daddy missed you! And he missed your mommy!”
Lin Xia giggled, covering her mouth, deeply amused by how funny Lu Zheng was at this mont!
A tough man, usually so serious and stern, was now whispering tenderly to her pregnant belly, sounding just like a mother.
Lu Zheng looked at Lin Xia, whose face was flushed with laughter, his deep eyes brimming with guilt and tenderness.
He and Lin Xia could only have these two children in this lifeti, yet during the only pregnancy, he had failed to always stay by the side of his wife and their daughters.
It has to be said, it was a great regret in life!
“Wife! You have worked hard! I haven’t been by your side all the ti, you must have felt particularly sad and lost, right?!”
“Xiaozheng! Grandpa and our mom treated very well! Later, Dongzi and Xiaoqiu were also with ; I wasn’t too hard-pressed nor sad!
And now that you can co back to be with , I don’t feel hard-pressed at all!”
Lin Xia spoke from her heart; during the ti she had returned, she really had been taken good care of.
Her mother-in-law went to great lengths for her, which moved her deeply.
As a mother-in-law, to do this much, how could she not feel grateful?
She threw away all the unpleasant mories that had happened in the past!
Lu Zheng also lay down, kissing Lin Xia’s pinkish-white cheek, “Silly wife! You are too easily satisfied!”
The smile at the corner of Lin Xia’s mouth grew wider; she also felt that she was indeed easily satisfied, and casually added, “Contentnt brings happiness, isn’t that good?”
“Good! Very good!”
That night, Lin Xia did not sleep well; she kept wanting to go to the bathroom.
Lu Zheng accompanied her each ti, and despite her protests, he insisted on going with her.
The next morning, Lin Xia, accompanied by several people, went to the hospital with two large bags.
The doctor and Shao irou knew each other, and they chatted for a bit.
After hearing about Lin Xia’s physical condition and performing an internal examination, she gave her suggestion, “You are dilated to two centiters now; if you’re worried, you can be admitted to the hospital to wait for labor.”
Lu Zheng and Shao irou said in unison that she should be admitted!
Lin Xia was amused and exasperated by their reaction!
How could they seem more anxious than she, the one giving birth, with such fierce expressions!
And so, Lin Xia was admitted into the maternity ward.
The dical conditions were not very good at that ti; Lin Xia looked around the ward, the green walls and window fras, the peeling and discolored IV stands and bedside tables, everything exuded an air of age and wear.
There were four beds in a ward, and Lin Xia’s group chose the one against the wall.
There were mothers-to-be on the other two beds, with family mbers sitting on stools beside them.
But normally there were only two people for support, yet when it ca to Lin Xia, there was an impressive entourage of four people following the mother-to-be, which was quite eye-catching.
Especially since Lu Zheng was tall, handso, and well-dressed, with an upright and restrained deanor, he carefully accompanied Lin Xia.
Shao irou was graceful and elegantly dressed, clearly not an ordinary person; Lin Qiu and Lin Dong were also quite good-looking.
As Lin Xia lay on the hospital bed, she heard another mother in the ward crying out in pain, which instantly made her feel anxious.
She was only feeling a bit of pain, nowhere near the level of pain the other was experiencing.
But if that person was already in so much pain, and the nurse said it was not yet ti to go to the delivery bed, what would the actual labor feel like?
Seeing Lin Xia’s face turn pale with anxiety, Lu Zheng simply took her for a stroll outside the hospital…
