Chapter 969 Climbing the Stairs

Some things always catch people off guard!

In mid-March, half a month before the due date, Su Tong suddenly had a stomachache. Zhang Xiaobai quickly took his wife to the hospital!

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm and he would be fine after taking some medicine. However, Zhang Xiaobai did not dare to let Su Tong live at home anymore, for fear that it would be too late if something happened.

He called Li Bao, Chen Nanping and Ji Xiaorou respectively to explain the situation, and then Zhang Xiaobai started living in bed with them.

Chen Shuhua is responsible for cooking and delivering three meals a day. Sometimes she wants Zhang Xiaobai to go home and rest. After all, she can't sleep well in the hospital, but Xiaobai refuses every time.

It can be seen that the son-in-law is very nervous!

On this day, after lunch, Zhang Xiaobai went to wash the rice bowl. Chen Shuhua said to Su Tong: "My dear girl! Don't you feel sorry for your husband? Let him rest!"

Su Tong said coquettishly: "Mom, I am your daughter, and he is half of your son. Why are you talking to him?"

Chen Shuhua said with a smile: "My son-in-law is not half a son, he is more filial than other people's sons!"

During these days in Tangcheng, Chen Shuhua personally felt Zhang Xiaobai's filial piety towards his elders.

When we meet, we talk politely, and we take good care of her. No matter how tired or busy we are at work, we always find opportunities to cook southern-style stews. From time to time, we take my mother-in-law to the mall to sell things!

Even though he is so rich, he doesn't dress very well, but when he spends money for his mother-in-law, he doesn't blink and just pays with his credit card!

These daily bits and pieces are enough to verify Zhang Xiaobai's filial piety.

But what moved Chen Shuhua the most was not these, but a conversation the two of them had once had.

At that time, Zhang Xiaobai said: "Mom, you all know the situation in my family. I have had no father or mother since I was a child. My grandfather died long ago. I was raised by my grandma. However, before I could fulfill my filial piety, my grandma also passed away!"

"My biggest regret in this life is that I was not filial enough to raise my relatives. I got married to Su Tong. You and my dad are my elder relatives, Zhang Xiaobai. I finally have a chance to make up for my regret!"

At that time, Chen Shuhua's eyes were red when she heard it. Only the simplest words can express the most sincere feelings!

She believed what Zhang Xiaobai said!

Therefore, Chen Shuhua was completely satisfied with this son-in-law. Sometimes she would quietly tell her daughter that the man she chose was really reliable.

Su Tong smiled and said: "Mom, it's not that I won't let him go back. At this juncture, no one can let him leave me!"

Chen Shuhua sighed softly and wondered why young people today are like this? Isn’t it just about giving birth to a child? What's the big deal?

At this time, Zhang Xiaobai came back with a clean rice bowl and asked with a smile: "What are you talking about? So happy!"

Chen Shuhua said: "Xiaobai, don't be too nervous, women all have this stage, it's okay!"

Zhang Xiaobai scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "Mom! I'm lying if I say I'm not nervous. This is my wife, and she has my child in her belly!"

Chen Shuhua frowned and said, "Why is such a tall man so worthless?"

Zhang Xiaobai said with a smile: "I really can't do anything about this matter!"

Chen Shuhua was speechless and couldn't persuade her at all!

After chatting for a while, Chen Shuhua left the ward, leaving time for the young couple!

Sometimes, she always felt redundant. When she was with them, it seemed that neither of them could let go. Once they were alone, there seemed to be endless things to say.

Chen Shuhua was confused, why did they have so much to say?

Although the couple is together, they don't really have much time to chat. Zhang Xiaobai is busy with work. When he gets home, he cooks and washes dishes and then studies reading. When he goes to bed, Su Tong has already fallen asleep!

Such an opportunity was rare, and Zhang Xiaobai cherished it very much. Indeed, as Chen Shuhua said, the two of them really had endless things to talk about!

Zhang Xiaobai peeled an apple and handed it to Su Tong. He had heard a legend before that if a pregnant woman eats an apple every day, her baby will be very white.

So Su Tong eats one every day!

If the baby follows his mother, it will be in vain, but Zhang Xiaobai is afraid that he will look like himself!

After Su Tong finished eating the apple, he said solemnly: "I have to talk to you about something!"

Zhang Xiaobai asked with a smile: "What's the matter?"

Su Tong said: "If, I mean if, there is an unexpected situation when giving birth, and there is a problem of whether to protect the adult or the child..."

Zhang Xiaobai's face showed nervousness, and he immediately interrupted Su Tong, "Mr. Bao! This is not negotiable!"

This situation is not impossible. Zhang Xiaobai has thought of it a long time ago. As he said, without discussion, of course he will protect his wife!

Su Tong held Zhang Xiaobai's hand and said softly: "Listen to me, we must protect our baby when the time comes. He is the fruit of our love!"

With tears in Zhang Xiaobai's eyes, he held Su Tong's hand tightly and said, "Daughter-in-law! Can you please stop thinking so wildly? I'm scared!"

Su Tong said: "Then do you listen to me?"

Zhang Xiaobai said: "Isn't it enough to just listen to you?"

Su Tong raised his eyebrows and said, "Really? Don't lie to me!"

Zhang Xiaobai almost shed tears and said, "Can you stop doing this? I promised you!"

Su Tong smiled and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen!"

Zhang Xiaobai said in a deep voice: "Yes! Nothing will happen!"

Then Zhang Xiaobai wiped his tears with his sleeves, grinned, and said, "I'm going to smoke a cigarette outside. Don't move around. I'll climb the stairs with you later!"

Su Tong blinked obediently!

Going downstairs to the small garden of the hospital, Zhang Xiaobai lit a cigarette, took a puff and slowly looked up at the sky.

"Oh my God! My life is miserable enough! I never saw my parents, my grandpa passed away very early, and I buried my grandma who loved me the most with my own hands!"

"I beg you! Don't let me suffer anymore! Please protect them and their child!"

Two lines of hot tears flowed down Zhang Xiaobai's cheeks. He never begged God even when he was in the worst situation!

After smoking, Zhang Xiaobai returned to the ward for daily exercise.

The doctor said that you have to prepare for a normal birth in advance and walk around frequently. The best way is to climb stairs.

Three times a day, Su Tong insists on it every day!

Zhang Xiaobai supported Su Tong walking up the stairs, lowering his head and being extra careful!

Su Tong smiled and said, "Did you cry just now?"

Zhang Xiaobai said, "Am I a loser? I cry all the time."

Su Tong said, "There is a saying that goes, men don't cry easily, but they don't cry when they are emotional!"

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "You are still good at comforting people!"

After walking for a while, Zhang Xiaobai helped Su Tong back to the ward, but Bai Lu was waiting inside.

During the days of hospitalization, friends took turns to visit, and only one person came every day.

Bai Lu smiled and said, "How do you feel today?"

Su Tong said, "Why do I feel that my eldest child is about to come out?"

Bai Lu said, "That may be because he is anxious to see his most beautiful mother!"

Zhang Xiaobai couldn't relax and said, "Wife, let's discuss it. How about not having a natural birth?"

It is said that natural childbirth is a level 10 pain. Zhang Xiaobai can't experience it, but he can imagine it!

It must be very painful!
