Chapter 395: Personal Experience of Pregnancy
After the three of them went back, they put their things away and immediately prepared lunch. Jiang Mubai was naturally arranged to sit on the sofa and was not allowed to interfere with lunch matters.
Manman also went into the kitchen to help Wu You. Seeing the two of them like this, Jiang Mubai had no choice but to sit down on the sofa, and she also took out the books she bought in the bookstore today.
Jiang Mubai thought that since there was nothing to do now, he might as well read a book to learn more about it in advance.
Wu You and the other two were afraid that Jiang Mubai would be hungry, so they didn't prepare too much lunch. They just made some quick food to fill Jiang Mubai's stomach first.
Even though time did not permit, Wu You still prepared a meal with both meat and vegetables for Jiang Mubai.
"Sister Mu Bai, you eat first. You must be starving."
Manman also came out with freshly washed fruits, "I just soaked the fruits in baking soda. Now I don't dare to be so careless. You can eat them without worrying about it."
"Okay, I feel relieved to have you guys around to take care of me."
After lunch, Jiang Mubai was forced by the two of them to take a nap.
Jiang Mubai didn't want to live a life of eating and sleeping every day, but she couldn't argue with the two of them, so she had to accept her fate and lie down in the room.
Everything that happened today felt like a dream to Jiang Mubai. She touched her belly which had not grown any bigger yet and couldn't believe that there was a life growing inside.
Jiang Mubai lay on the bed and couldn't help thinking about everything about the baby in her belly. She thought how nice it would be if Cheng Yunchuan was with her now.
The weather and temperature were just right, and Jiang Mubai couldn't help but fall asleep thinking about it all.
When she woke up again, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Manman came in and woke up Jiang Mubai who was still sleeping.
"Mu Bai, don't sleep anymore. If you continue sleeping, you won't be able to sleep tonight."
Jiang Mubai woke up in a daze and felt that she didn't get enough sleep. She wanted to continue sleeping but was pulled awake by Manman.
She was brought downstairs by Manman, and Wu You just brought out the cooked sweet soup for her to drink.
"Sister Mu Bai, I cooked you a soup with white fungus, lotus seeds, red dates and wolfberries. It's still a little hot now. Let's wait until it cools down before drinking it. This is good for your health. The weather is getting hot now. Drinking this soup can help you not get a sore throat."
"Okay, why haven't I seen you cook this soup for us before? Now that you see that I'm pregnant, you're being nice to me, right? Then I am indebted to her."
"Hehehe, it's different now. I read this soup from the cookbook I bought today. I don't dare to make anything for you now. We have no experience and don't know if pregnant women can eat it, so I plan to follow the recipe in the future."
"It's safer this way. I think we should use less of the seasonings we use for meals in the future. I'll bring you better ones next time I come."
"It's not that serious. When our parents gave birth to us and raised us, they didn't have time to care about these things. Aren't we growing up well?"
Wu You was the first to disagree, "That's because we didn't have the conditions back then. Now that we have the conditions, we must do it this way."
Jiang Mubai shook his head and sighed, "You're treating the baby so carefully before it's even born. If the baby is really born, won't you spoil it to the point of lawlessness?"
"How could that be? The right to educate your child is still in your hands. You should be happy that so many people like your child."
Jiang Mubai didn't believe what they said. She could imagine that she would be the one who played the bad guy after the child was born, and the two of them would definitely play the bad guy like Cheng Yunchuan. It seemed that she was the only one who acted like this in front of the child.
Without waiting for her to think further, Manman put the "Encyclopedia of Pregnancy" in Jiang Mubai's hands.
"Look at this book. When Teacher Cheng comes back, you two can read it together. Wu You will read the book "Nutrition Guide for Pregnant Women" and I will read the book "Mental Health Guidance for Pregnant Women and Mothers."
"Let's divide the work and cooperate with each other. This way you can feel the atmosphere earlier and get into the role of a mother sooner."
That afternoon, the three of them were reading books on the sofa while drinking the heat-clearing soup cooked by Wu You. Jiang Mubai was distracted in the middle. She saw Manman and Wu Youlai reading so attentively, and she thought it was nice to have two people who care about you to accompany you when you are pregnant.
In the evening, Cheng Yunchuan called Jiang Mubai as usual, "When will you finish your work?"
"It'll take another week or two, what's the matter?"
Jiang Mubai endured for a while but didn't tell anyone on the phone about her pregnancy. "Nothing, I just miss you."
"As soon as this is over I'll rush back to see you. I miss you, too."
After the two chatted about other things, they hung up the phone. In the next two weeks, Jiang Mubai was accompanied by Wu You and Manman.
Now that Jiang Mubai is pregnant, Manman no longer arranges work for her. In fact, there are many advertisements that want Jiang Mubai to be the spokesperson. She was helping Jiang Mubai to screen them before, but now that she sees that she is pregnant, she has turned them all down.
Manman didn't dare to joke about the child. She was afraid that if she arranged a job for Jiang Mubai, something might go wrong. She had read a lot of books on pregnant women during this period. Manman knew that the baby would be unstable in the first one or two months, so she didn't dare to let Jiang Mubai worry about it.
Jiang Mubai did nothing at home during this period. She had gained several pounds because of Manman and Wu You. Jiang Mubai felt that she couldn't continue like this.
"I can't just eat and not move every day. I'm a celebrity after all. If I keep going like this, I'll be so fat that no one will recognize me. If paparazzi take photos of me like this, people will start to speculate whether something has happened to me."
"But you're pregnant now, we don't dare to exercise."
"Just bear with it for now. It's almost time for another prenatal checkup. Let's go and ask the doctor what he says."
Jiang Mubai knew that she couldn't just do whatever she wanted, so she took Manman's words to heart and said, "Okay, let's wait until after this prenatal checkup and then take a look at the situation."
"Teacher Cheng just happened to be back, so why don't you let him go with you?"
Jiang Mubai thought about it carefully and finally refused, "If he accompanies me to the prenatal checkup, he will be too easy to be spotted by the paparazzi. It's better for the two of you to accompany me."
Manman knew that Jiang Mubai didn't want his private life to be exposed to the camera. During this period, Jiang Mubai and Cheng Yunchuan, the couple, did not come out to work, and some paparazzi spread rumors that the two might have broken up.
Manman didn't tell Jiang Mubai what the online marketing account said for fear of affecting her mood. In addition, now that Jiang Mubai's use of electronic products is under their control, she herself has no way of being exposed to such news.
When Jiang Mubai and Cheng Yunchuan's studios saw the news, they did not take any action. After all, these situations would occur many times in the future, so they felt there was no need to care.
