The little drama queen is both capricious and naughty, but her military officer husband insists on s

Dr. Chen placed the other end of the stethoscope on Jiangzao's belly.

He comforted her, saying, "Don't be nervous, relax, and just breathe normally."

Jiang Zao nodded stiffly, following the doctor's advice to relax her body and adjust her breathing.

Dr. Chen listened attentively for a while before speaking: "Both babies have normal heartbeats. The two little ones should be sleeping soundly in their mother's belly right now. They're very well-behaved, so there's nothing wrong."

Dr. Chen's words were like a good medicine, healing everyone present who were on tenterhooks.

"However, pregnant women must ensure they get adequate nutrition to avoid a repeat of today's situation." Dr. Chen put away her stethoscope and earnestly advised, "It's okay to be picky about food, but you can't skip meals."

Jiang Zao knew that Dr. Chen was talking to her, and nodded silently.

Having gone through that ordeal, she wouldn't dare to go on a hunger strike again, even if she had ten times the courage.

Besides, she wasn't the one on a hunger strike.

She was just an innocent victim who was framed.

"Doctor, may I listen to your ears?"

Lu Yanting suddenly spoke up and made a request.

"no!"

Jiang Zao refused without even thinking.

Lu Yanting strode over to Lu Yanxun's side and changed her mind, saying, "Then let my brother hear it."

"Neither!"

Jiang Zaoxin's heart tightened, and she quickly pulled the blanket over her stomach, firmly refusing.

Lu Yanting felt that Jiang Zao's refusal was unreasonable and was a little angry: "My brother is the child's father, why can't even he listen to me?"

"No means no, no one can!" Jiang Zao stubbornly refused.

The atmosphere was awkward for a while.

Su Xiufen quickly smoothed things over: "Tingting, your sister-in-law is still hungry."

Dr. Chen echoed Su Xiufen's words:

"Yes, nutrition is very important for pregnant women. Going hungry can affect their mood, which is not good for either the mother or the baby. You should let the pregnant woman eat first. I'll go see the other patients now. Call me if you need anything."

Dr. Chen left after he finished speaking.

Su Xiufen called to Lu Yanxun to help Jiang Zao up again: "Yanxun, come and help your wife sit up."

"No need." Before Lu Yanxun could make a move, Jiang Zao refused with a dark face, "I don't need his help, I can get up by myself."

Lu Yanting couldn't stand it and rolled her eyes, scoffing, "Showing off!"

Before she even met her brother, he had ordered her and her sister to help her up.

Now that her brother is back, she's started acting up again.

A hypocrite and a drama queen.

That's so pretentious.

Thinking of all this, Lu Yanting rolled her eyes in disdain again.

As it turns out, Jiangzao was indeed showing off.

She had no experience with pregnancy, and came into the world with such a big belly.

I don't know what to do, and I'm too afraid to move.

My belly is still very heavy, and I can't even sit up on the bed with my hands supporting me.

Jiang Zao was extremely disappointed after failing again after trying once more.

Pregnancy is so difficult.

She didn't want to be pregnant; she wanted to go home.

She doesn't know how she'll survive if she stays here.

Su Xiufen noticed that Jiang Zao was arguing with Lu Yanxun, and asked in a conciliatory tone, "Okay, then don't let him help you, Mom will help you, okay?"

Su Xiufen's utterance of the word "Mom" brought tears to Jiang Zao's eyes.

She sniffed and nodded without hesitation.

Jiang Zao simply didn't want Lu Yanxun to help her.

She was quite willing to help anyone other than Lu Yanxun.

Su Xiufen has given birth to three children and knows what kind of sitting position is more comfortable for pregnant women.

Her technique was gentle and skillful, and with her help, Jiang Zao quickly sat up.

Su Xiufen then placed a pillow behind Jiang Zao's waist, allowing her to sit and lean against something.

"Is it okay to lean on my back like this?" Su Xiufen asked softly.

Jiang Zao nodded gently: "Okay, thank you."

"The sun must have risen in the west, and she still knows how to say thank you." Lu Yanting curled her lip and mocked, "She's only pretending to be filial now that her brother is back."

"Tingting, stop talking nonsense. Your sister-in-law is magnanimous and won't stoop to your level."

Lu Yanwei was both angry and helpless with her outspoken younger sister.

Worried that Jiang Zao might get angry and go on a hunger strike again, she quickly scolded Lu Yanting in a reproachful tone.

Lu Yanting knew when to stop, "Hmph, fine, I won't say then."

Su Xiufen handed the bowl to Jiang Zao: "Don't be angry. When your dad comes back, I'll have him deal with her. Eat it while it's hot."

Jiang Zao was preoccupied with the fragrant chicken soup and didn't have time to be angry with Lu Yanting.

Let people say whatever they want, as long as they have food to eat.

She had heard countless harsh words in the orphanage when she was a child, and was already immune to them.

Taking the bowl and spoon, Jiangzao checked the temperature; it wasn't hot.

The perfect temperature for drinking.

After taking a spoonful of chicken soup, Jiang Zao's brows instantly relaxed.

The warm chicken soup flowed down her throat and into her stomach, and the happiness of finally being able to eat almost brought her to tears.

Seeing Jiang Zao eat with their own eyes, the three women present finally felt relieved.

Su Xiufen beamed with joy.

Lu Yanwei breathed a sigh of relief.

Even Lu Yanting, who had been glancing sideways at Jiang Zao, secretly loosened her clenched fist.

That rascal Jiangzao has finally started eating.

It's just a pity about the chicks she raised herself.

That was her pet! I wonder which one her mother killed.

"Just tell Mom what else you want to eat, and Mom will make it for you."

Su Xiufen's tone became much lighter.

Jiang Zao held the bowl and took a big gulp of soup. The chicken soup was so delicious that she forgot where she was.

Hearing Su Xiufen's question, Jiang Zao smiled at Su Xiufen with half-closed eyes: "Anything is fine, I'm not picky about food."

Perhaps because she had lived in an orphanage since she could remember, Jiang Zao was an easy child to raise from childhood to adulthood.

She eats whatever the director and volunteer sisters give her and is never picky about food.

Even if other children find the food unpalatable, she can still eat it all obediently without leaving a single bite.

"Tch, things are really different now that my brother's back. He's such a good actor!" Lu Yanting couldn't help but tease Jiang Zao again.

Jiang Zao paused in her hand holding the bowl, and Lu Yanwei's heart skipped a beat.

For the first time, she wanted to grab her younger sister's ear and ask her if she'd been kicked in the head by a donkey.

Can't you just put up with it?!

"Little sister!" Lu Yanwei was extremely helpless.

Lu Yanting seemed not to understand Lu Yanwei's hints and complained to Lu Yanxun to his face.

"Brother, when you're not home, she's even harder to please than the Empress Dowager!"

Lu Yanting originally wanted to put up with it, but she just couldn't stand Jiang Zao's pretentious and affected manner.

All the old and new grudges were combined.

I just have to get this off my chest.

However, to Lu Yanting's disappointment, Lu Yanxun did not respond after hearing her words.

He still maintained a cold, expressionless face.

He stared silently at Jiang Zao, lost in thought.

Jiang Zao glanced at the Lu family members, calmly picked up the bowl, and gulped down two large mouthfuls.

Chicken soup is so delicious!

Her mother-in-law's cooking skills are really good.

She'll be in for a treat from now on, right?
