The daughter-in-law of a wealthy family does not lie flat

The fifth day of the Lunar New Year is Ming Sicun’s birthday.

Lu Qing got up early in the morning and got busy. She knew that Ming Sicun and Fu Yanheng had a tense relationship, but after all, Ming Sicun had been Fu Yanheng's mother for thirty years. Moreover, before she gave birth to Fu Yuanji and Fu Junlin, Ming Sicun had also had a warm relationship with Fu Yanheng. Fu Yanheng still remembers the scene when Ming Sicun told him stories to coax him to sleep when he was a child.

Lu Qing sometimes asks herself, if she were in Ming Sicun's situation, would she treat her own children differently? Human nature is sometimes selfish, and there would probably be some differences, but Lu Qing believes that she would not use dirty tricks to flatter one and trample on the other.

Ming Sicun is from the south and loves seafood. Lu Qing had already instructed the kitchen to go to the seaside pier early in the morning to purchase local seafood, and also asked familiar suppliers to deliver some imported seafood.

Early in the morning, Lu Qing personally made longevity noodles for Ming Sicun. It was the seafood soup base that he always loved, and it was paired with hand-rolled noodles, which smelled delicious.

At the breakfast table, Lu Qing personally served noodles to her parents-in-law. Fu Daishi said, "I have a share too? Haha, this time I'm taking advantage of my wife!" He took a sip of the soup and praised its delicious taste.

Ming Sicun was in a good mood because today was a good day. He ate a few bites of longevity noodles and said they were delicious.

Fu Yuanji glared at Gan Meng from the side. This wife is as stupid as a pig! Last time, he didn't figure out whether it was Fu Yanheng and hyped it up. Not only did he fail to hit his opponent, but he also implicated Fu Junlin, causing Ming Sicun to scold him. The editor-in-chief of the newspaper has been pestering Gan Meng these days, asking her to compensate for the losses. Fu Yuanji had to give her tens of thousands of yuan to settle the matter. It's really a case of losing more than gaining!

Today is my mother's birthday. Even Lin Luqing, the daughter-in-law who lives next door, knows that getting up early to make longevity noodles is a sign of filial piety. Gan Meng foolishly didn't prepare anything! No wonder people used to say that you should marry a virtuous wife! The female star is still a little short of it!

Fu Yanheng waited for the two elders to finish their meal, then took out a gift and presented it to them. When Ming Sicun opened it, he saw a glass-type imperial green jade bracelet, which was crystal clear and made a crisp sound when tapped. Ming Sicun knew it was a good thing and couldn't help but smile, "Oh, I have so many bracelets, but none of them are as good as this one. This one must be a good one!"

Fu Yanheng said, "This is a little gift from Luqing and me. I hope mom will be healthy and live a long and happy life!"

Fu Yuanji also presented a gift, "This is a small golden Buddha that Ah Meng and I picked out especially for you. Put it in a lucky place to keep your home safe." Fu Junlin and Fu Jiayi complained, "You all gave such expensive gifts, what should we poor students do?" After that, Fu Junlin handed Ming Sicun a book with a smile, "Mom, this is an English novel I translated as a hobby. It was published a few years ago. I kept it for you as a birthday present!"

Ming Sicun loved Fu Junlin the most. He flipped through the books happily, "Great! This is the best. You have made great progress in your studies to achieve this. Your grandpa loves to translate works from various countries. You are really like your grandpa!"

Fu Junlin hugged Ming Sicun and said, "I have to thank my sister-in-law for her help. She was the one who helped me with the publishing house. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so smooth!" Ming Sicun nodded in admiration.

Fu Jiayi took out a hand-knitted scarf. Her technique was limited and the stitches were not neat. "Mom, I knitted this for you myself. I wonder if you like it."

"I like it, I like them all. You are all good children, and you are all thoughtful! Aunt Wang, give the red envelopes here!" Ming Sicun gave red envelopes to each child, including Lu Qing and Gan Meng.

According to the tradition of the Fu family, on parents’ birthdays, children give gifts and parents also have to give red envelopes to express that everyone can share in the good fortune.

At noon, a lady familiar with the Fu family came to congratulate them, so there was no choice but to arrange a large banquet. Lu Qing got up early in the morning and was busy greeting guests. It was almost one o'clock before she could sit down for lunch. Looking at the table full of delicious food, Lu Qing felt nauseous. After watching Ming Sicun and the others start playing cards, she finally went back to the east wing to rest.

Sitting at the desk, Lu Qing opened her diary to make notes. Looking at the monthly marks, she was stunned to find that her period was delayed by two weeks this month.

Lu Qing was stunned for a while before she picked up the phone to contact her private doctor and made an appointment for a checkup the next day. She remembered the day when Xiaoyu came to Fu's house, and everyone had rice soup hot pot. She usually loved eating fish slices in rice soup, but that day it felt fishy no matter how she looked at it. She was also silently doubting in her heart, could she really be pregnant?

The next day, Lu Qing just said that she had an appointment with a friend and went to the hospital by herself.

The hospital had already prepared everything. Someone specially helped Luqing do an ultrasound and pregnancy test, and the results came out very quickly.

The doctor said with certainty, "Mrs. Fu, congratulations, you are six weeks pregnant. The ultrasound report shows obvious cardiovascular pulsation in the fetus."

Although Lu Qing was mentally prepared, she still felt mixed emotions. Her first reaction was whether the poisoning last year would affect the fetus.

The doctor reassured her, "Mrs. Fu, we have been concerned about your condition since the last incident. The test results after you were discharged from the hospital showed that the arsenic residue level in your body was very low. The last few tests were even lower than the detection value, so don't worry, this will never affect the child. Although I am a general practitioner, there are more professional doctors in the obstetrics department. Come back for another check-up later, and we will serve you together."

Lu Qing nodded, thanked the doctor, and stood up to say goodbye. The doctor prescribed some health supplements for her, which would naturally be delivered to Fu's house.

On the way home, Lu Qing touched her belly. It was so magical. Was there really a baby in her belly? Lu Qing felt like she was still a child. How could she have a baby? Lu Qing thought about how to tell Fu Yanheng the news. Would Fu Yanheng be happy?

Lu Qing came out of the hospital, feeling a little confused. She wanted to be alone for a while, so she drove to the bookstore first.

During the Spring Festival, there were not many people in the bookstore. People here like to play cards during the Spring Festival, and they hate to lose. Lu Qing wandered around freely for a while, and the modernly decorated bookstore seemed to have become her own personal library.

She picked some economic books, some new and popular novels and comics, some highly praised management books, and for the first time, some parenting books, prenatal education materials, and maternal and infant information. When paying, the waiter took the initiative to say that the bookstore now has a delivery service. These dozens of books are a bit heavy, and the bookstore can deliver them to your door in the afternoon. Lu Qing thanked the waiter, left her address and the phone number of Fu's housekeeper, and left.

I wanted to call classmates and friends to have dinner together, but it was Chinese New Year and everyone was traveling with their families. It was not convenient to bring my family with me. Lu Qing found a coffee shop with few people and did not order coffee. She ordered a shrimp salad and pumpkin soup. After dinner, she felt that she did not have enough vitamins, so she ordered an orange yogurt bowl.

Only then did he slowly return to Fu's house.
