Chapter 277 Preparing for Childbirth 2
Chapter 277 Preparing for Childbirth 2
"That's very conscientious, worthy of praise." Shen Wancheng praised Gu Jinxing, then asked, "How did you come up with the idea of buying imported American diapers? How did you know which diapers are good?"
“I overheard you saying when you were stocking up for the postpartum care center last time that this American imported brand is the best, but the supply in Hong Kong is too limited and it’s easy to run out of stock. So it’s not suitable for postpartum care centers.”
After hearing Gu Jinxing's words, Shen Wancheng realized that she had seen this brand before.
Shen Wancheng originally thought that there wasn't much difference between brands of diapers in the same price range, so she didn't worry about it at the time and didn't even bother to remember the names.
Shen Wancheng pointed at Gu Jinxing and joked with a smile, "Eavesdropping on me."
"I try to learn as much as possible about raising children and adapt as early as possible."
"Adapt to what?"
"Of course, it's about taking care of these three babies."
Shen Wancheng understood what Gu Jinxing was thinking just from his tone.
She didn't consider taking care of children as a woman's job, so she didn't say anything like helping Shen Wancheng take care of the children.
And just because there will be plenty of nannies and childcare workers in the future, he didn't become a hands-off manager.
Shen Wancheng's lips unconsciously curled up.
"Today at the postpartum care center, they mentioned my very large belly and reminded me that I should start preparing for childbirth. Twins usually come out early, let alone triplets, I might not even make it to my due date."
"So that's how it is. Why didn't the doctor say that before?"
"They should tell you at the prenatal checkup the day after tomorrow."
"I'll still go with you."
"Ah."
Gu Jinxing accompanied Shen Wancheng to every prenatal checkup during her pregnancy.
This also made Shen Wancheng very satisfied.
Shen Wancheng always felt a strange sadness when pregnant women were in the hospital with big bellies and no man by their side.
It makes it seem like the pregnant woman is having an even harder time.
"Do you need my help with preparing for childbirth? What do you need to buy? I'll go with you."
Shen Wancheng smiled and said, "You go to work. Your mom and I have already agreed to go to the mall together tomorrow to buy baby clothes, hats and socks."
Gu Jinxing frowned. "I'm here. You don't need to trouble Mom to go with you."
Shen Wancheng couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.
"Perhaps Mom doesn't find it troublesome? You're just thinking it's troublesome for her."
Gu Jinxing seemed oblivious to the sarcasm in Shen Wancheng's words and continued talking to himself.
"Go back to your room and wash up first. I'll call Mom and tell her she doesn't need to come with you to the mall tomorrow."
Shen Wancheng didn't intend to get involved in the dispute between the mother and son, and agreed, "Okay, I'll go upstairs first."
In the end, Shen Wancheng didn't ask Gu Jinxing and Wen Nan how things went.
I received a call from Wen Nan the next morning while having breakfast.
Wen Nan didn't call the landline, but instead called Shen Wancheng's mobile phone. The maid handed the mobile phone to Shen Wancheng, who was eating breakfast.
When Shen Wancheng heard that it was Wen Nan calling, she glanced at Gu Jinxing across the dining table as she answered the phone.
Gu Jinxing remained calm, seemingly unaware of why Wen Nan had called.
"Mom, have you had breakfast yet? Are you coming over, or should I come pick you up?"
"I've already eaten. I wanted to tell you that I have something to do today, so I won't be able to go shopping with you. Instead, let Jinxing accompany you."
Shen Wancheng glanced at Gu Jinxing again and responded.
"Okay, Mom, you can go ahead and do what you need to do."
“Hey, you have to be careful when you go shopping. If you get tired, rest immediately and don’t push yourself. If you feel unwell, you must tell Jinxing. I’m worried that he’s not observant enough and won’t notice if something’s wrong.”
Wen Nan unusually rambled on for a few more minutes.
Shen Wancheng smiled and responded repeatedly.
"Yes, I know, I will definitely prioritize my own feelings."
"Yes, men are meant to be bossed around when you're shopping. If he doesn't do a good job, call me next time you go shopping and don't bring him along anymore."
"it is good."
"I'll call you again tonight, that's all."
Goodbye, Mom.
Shen Wancheng smiled and put down her mobile phone.
"What did you say to Mom last night? She seemed quite upset that we couldn't go shopping today."
Gu Jinxing said calmly.
"She told me some things about my maternal grandparents' family that she didn't know."
"puff."
Wen Nan and Gu Jinxing were unaware of the Wen family's affairs. It was a distressing matter, as the Wen family kept it from Wen Nan, and Gu Jinxing, though he knew, was too lazy to say anything.
However, Gu Jinxing wanted to accompany Shen Wancheng shopping in Wen Nan's place, so he told Wen Nan, and Wen Nan immediately "rushed" to the Wen family.
Shen Wancheng stared at Gu Jinxing and laughed.
Gu Jinxing coughed lightly.
"Have you eaten? If you have, we'll set off."
"it is good."

Central Department Store.
Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing took the elevator directly to the baby supplies store on the third floor.
The entrances of each shop were decorated with light blue and pink balloons and ribbons, creating a warm atmosphere. Inside each shop, pregnant women with their bellies were slowly moving between the shelves, but few of them were accompanied by men.
Shen Wancheng took Gu Jinxing's arm and walked into a maternity and baby store.
Shen Wancheng was immediately drawn to a row of pink baby onesies.
Surprisingly, bodysuits appeared at this time.
When Shen Wancheng was browsing short videos in her future life, she often saw babies wearing onesies and found them very cute, even cuter than babies.
Moreover, as far as Shen Wancheng knew, babies' stomachs were very fragile, and if their stomachs got cold, they would immediately get diarrhea.
This kind of bodysuit can effectively protect the stomach.
Shen Wancheng picked up three different styles of pink jumpsuits.
The bodysuit's fabric is very soft, and it looks like it's of very good quality.
The clothes were tiny, like they were meant for a doll.
"so cute."
Shen Wancheng handed all three bodysuits to Gu Jinxing and told him to take them.
Gu Jinxing raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Do you have a gut feeling that you'll have three daughters? Choose three pink outfits."
"I have a gut feeling that there must be at least one girl who can wear it, right? As long as there's a girl, no matter how many she buys, she can wear it, right?"
Gu Jinxing nodded, "Yes, buy whatever you like."
Shen Wancheng asked Gu Jinxing questions as she made her selections.
"And you, do you prefer boys or girls?"
"Boys or girls are fine, I will raise our children well. But since we have three, I still hope to have both a son and a daughter."
Shen Wancheng actually already knew she had a son and a daughter because of the achievement system.
But talking about these things with Gu Jinxing feels different.
My anticipation for the baby in my belly grows stronger every day.
Shen Wancheng said with a smile, "Actually, I had a feeling that this pregnancy would result in us having both a son and a daughter."
“You gave birth to them, so your intuition must be the most accurate.”
Although Shen Wancheng knew there were men and women, she didn't know what kind of combination there was with three people.
Therefore, Shen Wancheng mostly bought yellow and white, colors that are suitable for both boys and girls.
Newborns need frequent changes of clothes, so Shen Wancheng bought twenty or thirty sets.
When Gu Jinxing was paying, the sales assistant saw that they had bought so many items, all of them size S, and couldn't help but offer some advice.
"Sir, Madam, newborns grow very quickly. If you buy so many, you won't even have time to put on two sets of clothes a day before they become too small."
Gu Jinxing said coldly but politely.
"Thanks for the suggestion, but my wife is pregnant with more than one baby, so buying a little more won't hurt."
"Twins? Congratulations!"
"Thank you."
The sales assistant neatly attached each piece of clothing, put it into a shopping bag, and handed it to Gu Jinxing with both hands.
"The husband and wife have such a good relationship. I wish the wife a smooth delivery and a happy and fulfilling life."
