My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

"Pregnancy anxiety? What is this? Is it a disease?" Wang Wei was obviously hearing this term for the first time and obviously had no idea what it meant.

"It is indeed a disease, and it is a mental illness." Chang An said, "It occurs one to two months after a woman becomes pregnant, and may also occur once before giving birth."

"Anxiety during pregnancy can make pregnant women anxious about certain things, doubt themselves, and then become depressed, which can indirectly affect the baby in the womb."

Wang Wei was surprised after hearing this and exclaimed, "Brother Yonghe actually knows about this disease! I have never heard of it."

"In that case... this will be difficult." Chang An stroked his forehead, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Then... Sir?" At this time, Huaiqin's voice sounded in the car. Chang'an raised his eyelids and looked at the other party. Then he heard the other party ask: "If Sanniang really has this disease, can it be cured? Which doctor can cure it?"

Chang An sighed and said, "It can be cured, but it's not something that can be cured by a doctor."

"What's more, this is just my guess. Maybe Mother Gu doesn't have this disease." Chang An comforted himself in this way. If he really had postpartum anxiety, no matter how serious it was, it would be difficult to deal with.

Wang Wei had been holding his chin up, as if he was thinking about something, and then he asked, "Then according to what you said, Brother Yonghe, will my wife also get this disease?"

"I don't think so," Chang An shook his head. "Brother Mo Jie, you and Madam Cui are so affectionate and well-matched, why would she be anxious about this?"

But Gu Li was different, she was sentimental by nature. And Chang An could feel that in this relationship with him, she always put herself at the lowest position, while Chang An was placed at the highest point of the emotional scale.

In such an unbalanced relationship, the party in the lower position will develop an inferiority complex over time.

Even though Chang An couldn't be any better to her.

Soon, the carriage arrived at the gate of the Imperial College, and the three people in the carriage got off. After Chang An and Wang Wei said goodbye to each other, they walked towards their respective destinations.

Chang An sat in the classroom, holding his pen tightly in his hand, frowning, and worried about Gu Li at home. He held the brush, tapped his chin constantly, and began to speculate in his mind about Gu Li's current situation. And for each situation, Chang An also began to think about the corresponding solution.

Chang An also stayed in the Imperial College anxiously until noon, and went out directly after class to wait at the door. When Wang Wei came, Chang An asked the driver to drive him home.

......

As soon as he got back home, Chang An got off the carriage directly, and the familiar word "Chang Lang" came directly into his ears.

He came to Gu Li, gently took her hand, and said, "Mother Gu, I'm back."

"Chang Lang, welcome home."

Today, the doormen seemed to have some "uncomfortable" necks, twisting their necks to the left and right. In the past, only Gu Li and Chang An were at the door, but today there were also Wang Wei and Cui Yu.

"How are you today, Madam Gu? Are you in a good mood?" Chang An asked as he took her into the mansion.

"It's great. Having Madam Cui to chat and do embroidery with me is not only not boring but also very fun." Gu Li said.

At this time, Wang Wei leaned close to Chang An's ear and whispered, "Madam Gu was pricked by a needle a few times today, and she became a little unhappy."

Chang An remained calm, nodded after listening, and said, "In that case, I won't stay any longer."

Wang Wei also smiled and nodded, saying, "Brother Yonghe, goodbye."

"Brother Mojie, take care."

After seeing off Wang Wei and Cui Yu, Chang An and Gu Li walked home hand in hand, and then the former deliberately pinched the latter's hand. As expected, the latter suddenly felt a pain.

"What's wrong?" Chang An asked with concern. Although he said it was intentional, he still felt really heartbroken.

Gu Li said at this time: "No... It's nothing, I just got a needle pricked on my finger when I was embroidering today..."

"Why? I haven't seen Mrs. Gu being pricked by needles many times before. Is she worried about something?" Chang An asked.

"No...no." Gu Li shook his head quickly, but the embarrassment of lying still reflected in Chang An's eyes.

"Tell the truth." Chang An stretched out his finger and gently poked Gu Li on the forehead.

"Ah..." Gu Li was poked and pouted a little aggrievedly, saying, "Yes..."

Chang An sighed, then asked, "What's on your mind? Can you tell Chang Lang about it?"

"Just...will Chang Lang think I'm stupid..." Gu Li said, seeming a little cautious when he spoke.

Chang An raised his eyebrows and asked, "How could that be?"

"Because I feel...I can't even do some small things well, unlike Chang Lang, who is not only good at studying, but also can give advice to Your Majesty." Gu Li is a little frustrated now.

"How is that possible? Didn't I tell Mother Gu? She is also very powerful." Chang An comforted.

As they were talking, the two returned to the courtyard. As usual, Chang An asked Huaiqin and Zhen'er to bring the book box to the study. Then he took Gu Li back to the room, pulled her to sit at the low table, and said:

"Mother Gu, please don't let your imagination run wild now. I have never disliked you, Mother Gu."

Gu Li was still a little unhappy, so Chang An smiled and tapped her forehead again, saying, "Actually, Gu Niang and I are the same. We are husband and wife, and we are equal. How can there be such a thing as dislike?"

"I'm just worried..."

"Has Mother Gu been a little anxious lately?" Chang An pulled her over and held her in his arms.

Gu Li was a little depressed at this time, with his head hanging low, his two little hands twisted together, and his voice was like a mosquito humming: "Some, I don't know why..."

Chang An sighed. It looked like she was really anxious about her pregnancy. He could only hug her tighter and said, "It's normal for Gu Niang to be anxious at this time. You don't need to take it seriously."

Gu Li was a little confused, frowned slightly, and asked: "Why?"

"Mother Gu has Xiaoguai now, and because it's her first time being a mother, it's normal for her to have this so-called anxiety. Mother Gu doesn't need to worry so much about it, otherwise if she's so unhappy every day, Xiaoguai and I will be unhappy too."

"Is this normal?" Gu Li was a little surprised. It was the first time she heard such a statement.

"Yes," Chang An said, "It's not just Gu Niang who is inexplicably anxious at this time. Some other ladies, like Gu Niang, will be like this after they are pregnant."

"Is that so?" Gu Li was a little unconvinced.

"Of course, one out of every ten new mothers like Gu Niang will suffer from anxiety, and it is possible that the situation is even more serious than Gu Niang's," said Chang An.

"So, Madam Gu doesn't need to be so scared. Madam Gu has always been the most precious treasure in Chang Lang's heart. Madam Gu is not stupid at all. Madam Gu has always been the most beautiful lady."

"Hmm... Is what Toshiro said true?"

"Of course it's true. When has your Chang Lang ever lied to you?" Chang An kissed Gu Li on the face.

"In the future, when you feel anxious like this, Madam Gu should do something you like. For example, eat some candy, read some books, etc., to divert your attention."

"If you are always anxious, you can come to me, Chang Lang, and cry or vent. You can even hit me. Don't let yourself be stressed all the time, okay? Otherwise, if you keep the sadness and anxiety in your heart, it will hurt yourself."

Gu Li hesitated in Chang An's arms, then nodded: "Okay...but can you please not hit Chang Lang?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Madam Gu." Chang An stretched out his hand and raised his little finger. "Madam Gu promised Chang Lang that whenever you feel anxious or unhappy, you should come to me and talk to me. You have to remember that I am always here. Even if the sky falls, I will still be here. Okay?"

"Okay? If yes, we'll make a pinky promise."

Gu Li turned her head and met Chang An's warm smile like spring breeze. She was stunned for a moment, and then she also laughed. She also raised her little hand and interlocked her little finger with Chang An's.

"In that case, you must do what you say." Chang An said.

"Yeah." Gu Li nodded vigorously.

Chang An smiled and kissed her on the lips, then said, "Mother Gu is so good, I decided to reward her by letting her go out to play with me in the afternoon, how about that?"

When he heard that he could go out to play, Gu Li became very interested and asked, "Where are we going to play?"

"Well... go to the East Market or the West Market, or go to the stage to watch a play." Chang An also thought for a while, and then said, "Where does Gu Niang want to go? Or do you want to go everywhere?"

"Can we all go?"

"Of course you can. I can accompany you wherever you want to go." Chang An said with a smile.

Although anxiety during pregnancy is difficult to deal with, it does not mean that it cannot be dealt with. The treatment method is also very simple, and the main thing is to accompany her. Let Gu Li feel that you are really by her side, let her have enough sense of security, and over time, her anxiety will slowly disappear.

"Then let's go after lunch. We have three places to go." Gu Li said happily.

"no problem!"

Chang An said with great pride. At this time, Huaiqin came in and informed the two to prepare for dinner. At this time, Chang An also said:

"Huaiqin, after arranging the meal, go and ask the coachman to prepare the carriage. We are going out to play later."

"Going out to play?"

"Yes, take Gu Niang out to relax. Of course, you should also bring more silver."

"Yes, son."
