Female-to-male: I live on farming

Chapter 136 23 Things During Pregnancy

While waiting for the doctor, Qin Ke brewed a pot of honey tea. He put some sugar in it and added a small spoonful of frozen honey at the end, so that the tea had a sweet taste.

Lu Youqing drank a small cup of honey-scented tea, and her mouth finally felt less bitter, and her face became rosy.

At this time, she was half lying on the bed, and Qin Ke was half squatting, carefully taking off her shoes and socks, and then stuffing her lower body into the quilt, carefully tucking in the corners, with gentle and delicate movements, for fear of hurting her.

During the whole process, Lu Youqing was half leaning against the head of the bed, his eyes as gentle as water, holding the blue and white porcelain teacup in both hands, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

The atmosphere in the room was warm and sweet, as if time had stopped at this moment.

"My dear, the doctor is here." Han Qi knocked on the door.

Qin Ke hurriedly welcomed the person in. The doctor invited by Han Qi was from the largest clinic in Cangwu City, and they all called him Doctor Rong. He was old and had gray hair, but he had superb medical skills and was very famous in Cangwu.

Han Qi brought a wooden stool for him to sit on. Lu Youqing stretched out her white wrist, and Doctor Rong placed a silk handkerchief on it. His fingers gently fell on her wrist, and he held his breath and concentrated.

After a while, Doctor Rong withdrew his hand, picked up the handkerchief, stood up and saluted, saying: "The pulse is very active and flowing smoothly. It is smooth under the finger, like beads rolling on a plate. This is a happy pulse. I would like to congratulate the lady."

Qin Ke's heart finally settled down, and he hurriedly took two steps forward and asked, "Doctor, what does my wife need to pay attention to?"

Doctor Rong was holding a medical box. Hearing this, he smiled and replied, "Madam, the fetus is currently stable. No medication is needed. Just be careful every day."

When Lihua saw Qin Ke following Doctor Rong and asking about precautions during pregnancy, she took two steps forward, half-knelt in front of the bed, and smiled with her teeth showing.

"Congratulations, sir. You didn't eat much just now. How about I ask the kitchen to make some light porridge for you?"

Lu Youqing actually didn't have much of an appetite, but... she gently stroked her belly with her hand. She was pregnant now, and she should be careful even for the sake of the child, so she nodded at Lihua.

It was a rare occasion for Qin Ke to personally send the doctor to the mansion. He kept asking questions along the way and almost took notes in a small notebook.

It was the first time that Dr. Rong saw a husband so nervous about his wife's pregnancy. He took care of every detail and his expression of concern was genuine.

"Sir, please send her here. If Madam feels unwell, you can come to the clinic to find me at any time." Doctor Rong bowed and said goodbye with a smile on his face, carrying his medical box on his back.

When Qin Ke returned to the dormitory again, he had a silly smile on his face. Lu Youqing looked up and saw that he looked silly. She raised the corners of her lips and waved at him.

When he got closer, she reached out to hold his hand, but felt his hands full of cold sweat. Lu Youqing couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm fine, the child is fine too, don't be nervous."

"I... I'm just a little nervous." Qin Ke sat on the bed facing her, took a deep breath and said, "I will adjust my mentality, take good care of you and the baby."

"Okay." Lu Youqing smiled lightly, with bright stars in his eyes.

At this time, Lihua had already brought in the cooked rice porridge, and Qin Ke took it and fed her with a spoon.

"It's still a young month, and it's no different than usual. You don't have to be so careful."

Although Lu Youqing said this, she obediently drank the porridge Qin Ke fed her. She also knew that Qin Ke was too nervous when he heard the news of her pregnancy.

She hoped he could adjust his attitude quickly, otherwise she couldn’t imagine what Qin Ke would be like when she was pregnant.

Qin Ke has lived two lives, and this is the first time she has a child of her own, so she is naturally nervous and uneasy.

However, Lu Youqing, the person involved, was much calmer and went out to work as usual, but she tried her best not to stay up late or work overtime.

She had become increasingly sleepy since she became pregnant, and even needed Qin Ke to wake her up in the morning. Two days after she was diagnosed with pregnancy, the eldest princess received the news and specially called her over to tell her to take care of herself and to arrange her own time if there was no emergency.

However, Lu Youqing was a very rigorous, serious and responsible person. He still went to the government office on time every day to work, rain or shine, except for holidays.

For most families, the mother-in-law would take care of all matters when the daughter is pregnant. However, Lu Youqing has no mother-in-law, and Qin Ke has no mother-in-law. There are no elders in the family, so they can only figure it out on their own. Fortunately, Qin Ke had seen a lot in his previous life and had some experience, otherwise he would not know where to start.

Qin Ke couldn't share her worries at work, so he could only try his best to take care of her in life. He was now more and more skilled in undressing. Every morning when Lu Youqing was sleepy, he would help her get dressed and wash.

Qin Ke had heard in her previous life that some women's tastes would change drastically after they became pregnant. Lu Youqing used to like light meals, but now she likes heavier flavors.

The chili sauce, chili powder and other condiments produced in his workshop came in handy at this time, and Qin Ke cooked food for her in different ways.

The body temperature will become higher after pregnancy. She is not as afraid of cold as last year, but Qin Ke still picks her up and drops her off when she travels, for fear that something might go wrong on the road.

Fortunately, apart from being a little sleepy and greedy during the early stages of her pregnancy, Lu Youqing did not have any symptoms such as morning sickness, which made Qin Ke feel relieved. For this reason, he would lie in front of Lu Youqing's belly every night and praise the baby in her belly for loving his mother and being a good child.

The wind was howling that night, the air was cold and quiet, and a cold moon hung high in the sky, casting a cool light.

The house was filled with candlelight, the charcoal fire was crackling, and the air was full of warmth.

Qin Ke was kneeling on the bed in her plain white pajamas, with her ear pressed against Lu Youqing's slightly bulging belly. It was already January, and her belly was slowly starting to show.

"She's so young, how can she hear it?" Lu Youqing was already accustomed to his actions. She rubbed his earlobe with her slender fingers and said angrily.

Qin Ke raised her head, her eyes sparkling, and picked up the book beside the bed and turned to the page she had read last time and said, "Then I'll continue reading to the baby."

This was something he had to do before going to bed every night. In winter, it gets dark early and the nights are long, so Qin Ke treated it as a recreational activity, calling it "fetal education."

Lu Youqing didn't quite understand the specific meaning of "prenatal education", but she let him do whatever he wanted as long as he was happy.

Unexpectedly, just as Qin Ke finished reading a page, Lu Youqing suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

Qin Ke paused, only to see her pursed her lips and looked at her somewhat embarrassedly.

They spent a lot of time together, and Qin Ke was already familiar with her subtle expressions. Seeing this, he threw the book aside and asked, "Are you hungry again?"

Lu Youqing nodded somewhat embarrassedly.
