Chapter 110 – My family’s Zhenzhen is pregnant (3)

At 2PM, four elegantly dressed rich madams arrived. They looked a bit familiar. Ye Zhen had seen them at the wedding.

“So this is your daughter-in-law. I wasn’t able to get a clear look at the wedding. Seeing her now, I can see that she’s a little beauty. Now, all you have to do is wait until you can enjoy a grandmother’s happy life.”

Mrs. Lu smiled. “Of course.”

After the group of women had been chatting for a bit, one of the madams seemed to suddenly remember something. She asked, “Mrs. Chen, I remember your grandson is at the age where he can start kindergarten. How is he?”

“He’s in kindergarten now. I can finally relax a bit. That little devil child, he’s so troublesome. I still have to go pick him up from kindergarten later today. I don’t have any free time.” Although she said these words, there wasn’t the slightest trace of unhappiness on her face.

“All grandsons are naughty. My grandson acts like he wants to destroy our home. He’s always causing trouble. Look, some of my hair has turned white because of him.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ye Zhen looked at that madam. She was glowing with health and had shiny black hair. There wasn’t a single stand of white hair on her head.

“Grandsons, they just like causing trouble. My family’s little monkey is the same way. He can never sit still. Mrs. Zhou, is your granddaughter still practising piano?”

“Yeah, she likes it, so I let her continue. She recently said she wants dance lessons, so I hired a dance teacher for her.”

“When I went to Mrs. Zhou’s home last time, I heard her granddaughter play the piano. She’s very gifted. I really envy you for having such a talented granddaughter that knows how to play the piano and how to dance. She’s not like my grandson, who doesn’t know how to do anything.” She sighed. “He’s been pestering us to send him to a summer camp recently, but he’s only a five year old child. How could I be okay with sending him off?”

“Yeah, you definitely can’t. He’s too young. What if something happens to him when there’s no family member around?”

“My son is disagreeing with me about that and wants to send my grandson to a summer camp. I don’t know what my son is thinking. He’s just a little kid. What if my grandson gets hurt? My son finally eased up on the idea after I scolded him.”

After listening for a bit, Ye Zhen figured out the purpose of their gathering. The conversation never drifted away from their grandchildren. They were just showing off.

“Mrs. Lu, you still have free time now. Once your daughter-in-law is pregnant, you’ll be so busy.”

“Ah, I’m doomed to a life of worrying. I just finished worrying about my son’s wedding. And now, I’ll have to start worrying about my grandchild.” Mother Lu held Ye Zhen’s hand. “My family’s Zhenzhen is pregnant!”

Everyone else was extremely surprised and stunned.

“She got pregnant that quickly?”

Mother Lu beamed. “We discovered it when she went to the hospital for a checkup.”

“Congratulations, you’re going to become a grandmother. How long has she been pregnant?”

Mother Lu silently cursed her son again. She vaguely answered, “Not long.”

“It’s especially important for pregnant women to eat nourishing foods during the first trimester.” The madam looked over Ye Zhen. “Your daughter-in-law is so thin. She should eat more food and more supplements.”

“I know. Older Master Lu sent over three women who have experience with taking care of pregnant women. I feel less worried with them managing Zhenzhen’s diet.” Mrs. Lu was grinning from ear to ear. “I was so stunned when I found out that Zhenzhen was pregnant from her checkup yesterday. I listen to you talk about your grandchildren so much, but now that it’s my turn to be a grandmother, I don’t know what to do.”

“You can start preparing your grandchild’s clothes and toys now. Otherwise, you’ll be too busy when the baby comes. It’ll be inconvenient if you’re lacking anything when the time comes.”

“I’ve already started preparing! And I set aside a room for the nursery. And I invited a designer for the nursery. Once the designer is done with the design in a few days, I’ll hire coworkers to remodel the room according to the design. I can’t depend on Beichuan. Besides, I’ll feel better if I oversee it myself.”

Ye Zhen couldn’t resist interjecting, “Mom, we don’t know if the baby will be a boy or girl.”

With a prideful expression, Mrs. Lu said, “That’s why I’m preparing two sets of everything.”

Ye Zhen’s mood was extremely complicated.

She had already been worried that Lu Beichuan would spoil their son, and now there was this grandmother that would also be spoiling her grandson.

Spoiling your children was the root of all evil. Ye Zhen couldn’t stop herself from worrying. Would she be able to raise this baby into a good person?
