Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

Now that he had some free time, Lu Nanchi took out his cell phone and secretly planned to call to announce the good news.

And he already had an extremely brilliant idea. He wanted his brother to be the last person in the family to know that his sister-in-law was pregnant...

Although there is no point in doing this, what's wrong with being naughty? !

And just thinking about the expression his brother might have when he finds out the truth is exciting!

Cough!

Lu Nanchi quickly hid his inner thoughts. He wanted to contact his brother, but wasn’t Lu Beiyuan on a mission?

As the best brother in the world, how could he possibly disturb his brother at this time? !

Thinking of this, Lu Nanchi called Lu's mother without any psychological burden.

At that time, Lu's mother was writing a report in the office. When she saw the call from Lu Nanchi, she was a little surprised.

Aren’t all these sons of mine kites with their strings let go?

When did this kite get a satellite signal installed and know how to send her a message?

I've never seen this before. The sun is rising from the west...

Before Mother Lu finished her muttering, she heard her son on the other end of the phone tell her: "Mom! Sister-in-law is pregnant!"

After Lu Nanchi finished speaking, there was silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds, and then, Lu's mother's surprised voice was heard: "Is your sister-in-law pregnant? How many months has it been now? When did you find out? Is your sister-in-law in good health?"

Lu Nanchi was bombarded with questions from his mother and felt dizzy. Seeing that his mother was about to ask more questions, Lu Nanchi quickly spoke up to stop her.

"Mom! Mom! Ask them one by one, otherwise I won't know how to answer you!"

Only then did Lu's mother on the other end of the phone stop attacking her son with questions and gave Lu Nanchi space to speak.

"My sister-in-law has been pregnant for just over a month and less than two months. Today, we were operating in the laboratory and she suddenly felt dizzy and almost fainted. I took her to the infirmary to see a doctor, and the doctor said she has been pregnant for more than a month..."

The most Yu Jiang and Lu Nanchi wanted to do was to report the good news, but who would have thought that this kid would actually tell Lu's mother exactly what happened today.

It is obvious that Lu Nanchi is complaining!

But Yu Jiang did not poison the boy in advance, and it was too late to stop him now.

"Ahem!" Yu Jiang tactfully reminded Lu Nanchi that if he dared to talk nonsense again, he would be dead the moment he hung up the phone!

Well, Lu Nanchi accepted the threat and wisely did not continue to expose Yu Jiang's secrets.

However, Lu's mother on the other end of the phone heard her daughter-in-law coughing and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"Why is your sister-in-law still coughing? Didn't she go to the infirmary? And where's your brother? How come he didn't even show up for such a big deal as your wife's pregnancy?"

Mother Lu's questions kept coming, and Yu Jiang had to speak up for himself and Lu Beiyuan, "It's okay, Mom. I just got pregnant. I didn't even know I was pregnant before today!

It just so happened that I had a lot of work to do these two days and I didn't get enough rest.

But when I went to the infirmary just now, the doctor said that I was just tired and told me to just rest.

You said that even if you don’t trust doctors, you should trust my medical skills! I have checked my own pulse, and the baby in my belly is strong!"

After a pause, before Lu's mother could speak, Yu Jiang continued to add to Lu Beiyuan's explanation: "Don't mention Lu Beiyuan, he is on a mission now! He said it would take a month, but it's been less than ten days. Logically, it will take more than twenty days for him to come back."

Mother Lu couldn't help but spit in her heart: What a piece of shit son, he didn't even show up at the critical moment, and he had to rely on his own brother to help take care of his pregnant wife, what a...

The more Lu's mother thought about it, the angrier she became. On one hand, she complained that her son was not as good as a piece of barbecued pork, while on the other hand, she had to clean up his mess.

Really!

"Jiang'er, please help me make an application. I will take leave and come to the northwest to take care of you!"

As she spoke, Mother Lu had already calculated how long she would be able to take off this time, how long she would be able to stay in the northwest, and what excuses she would use to ask for leave when Yu Jiang gave birth...

"No need, mom. I can take care of myself here. Even if Lu Beiyuan is not here, there is still a robot at home. With it, I don't have to worry about my life at all."

"What the hell?

robot?"

What is this thing that she doesn't know because of her ignorance?

"Yes, Mom, it's a machine made by my sister-in-law. It can cook and do housework. It's said that it can also help take care of children!"

Lu Nanchi immediately tried to explain to Lu's mother, but his explanation was not credible at all. All he got was a snort of "Hmm" from Lu's mother.

"Mom, don't say you don't believe me! If I could let you see the scene, I would definitely show you how a robot cooks!

Don't accuse me of lying. My sister-in-law and I are sitting in the living room calling you. My brother is not at home, and the robot is cooking in the kitchen."

It should be said that in just a moment, Lu Nanchi had already smelled the fragrance coming from the kitchen.

"Oh my god! It made fish-flavored eggplant tonight! I can smell the aroma in the living room!

Lu's mother said that she still didn't believe it.

There was no other choice, Yu Jiang had to tell Lu's mother the whole story about the robot from beginning to end.

After hearing this, Lu's mother was still skeptical, but Yu Jiang continued to persuade her: "Don't worry, Mom. I didn't know I was pregnant before, so I didn't pay much attention to my body. Now that I know I'm pregnant, I will definitely not work so hard anymore..."

In the end, Lu's mother was persuaded and decided to go and take care of Yu Jiang during the confinement period after Yu Jiang gave birth.

However, Yu Jiang was still taught a lot of things that pregnant women should pay attention to by Lu's mother.

"Don't blame me for being nosy. You don't have any elders around you right now. We don't know where Lu Beiyuan is right now. If you don't want to trouble us, you must take good care of yourself.

Mom knows that you have your own plans for your career, but now that you are pregnant, you don’t have to do some things at work yourself. Just let Lu Nanchi do it for you.

When you are alone at home, you should pay more attention to eating healthy and nutritious food, not too greasy, but also not too much...

Take some time every day to walk around, don’t sit all the time, and remember to go to bed early and don’t stay up late…”

Finally, Lu's mother hung up the phone reluctantly, and Yu Jiang and Lu Nanchi breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

However, thinking about the tough battle that still lay ahead on his mother's side, Yu Jiang couldn't help but sigh. He suddenly felt a little regretful about getting pregnant. Why was it so troublesome to have a baby!

"Let's eat first!" Yu Jiang called Lu Nanchi: "I have to call my parents after dinner."

After hearing this, Lu Nanchi hurriedly got up from the sofa, supported his sister-in-law and was about to go to eat, but he saw Yu Jiang's threatening eyes.

"I'll let you off for now. If I hear you say something you shouldn't say again, don't blame me for not letting you leave the institute..."

Lu Nanchi's skin tightened, knowing that Yu Jiang was talking about what he had just told Lu's mother, that Yu Jiang almost had an accident today.

Lu Nanchi was very sensitive about this and nodded repeatedly to promise that he would not let the cat out of the bag again.

Only then did Yu Jiang reluctantly let Lu Nanchi go and went to the dining room to eat.

After dinner, the robot washed the dishes and cleaned up as usual, while Lu Nanchi and Yu Jiang returned to the sofa.

The call was made to Yu's mother, and the same surprise was there, but this time there was no Lu Nanchi to complain. Yu's mother didn't know about the danger today, so Yu Jiang avoided another lecture.

However, Yu's mother also said: Lu Beiyuan is still on a mission in Yu Jiang's place, and she definitely can't take care of herself at home, and she might even tire herself out from staying up late and working overtime.

So Yu's mother would rather abandon Yu's father who was alone at home and come to look after Yu Jiang.

Yu Jiang/Lu Nanchi: You really are my mother/Sister Yu’s biological mother!

I really know Yu Jiang's attitude towards life and temper very well!

You can guess the truth just by talking about it... No one else can do this...

Yu Jiang still used the same words to successfully convince Yu's mother, asking her to stay at home and accompany Yu's father for a while, and it would not be too late to come over when he was about to give birth.

Yu's mother couldn't resist her daughter's repeated persuasion, and finally agreed to go there later.

But she also asked Yu Jiang to call her every night before going to bed before Lu Beiyuan came back, so as to ensure that Yu Jiang did not work overtime in the office.

If it weren't for her limited skills, Yu's mother would have wanted Yu Jiang to report every three meals a day to her.

The main theme is a self-awareness that does not trust Yu Jiang.

As for Lu Nanchi...

Come on, he is the kind of person who can forget himself when he is busy.
