Chapter 391 Plan
While the two were talking.

Cheng Fang was helped out by Cheng Cai. She was wearing a military green coat, a hat, and a scarf, and was completely covered up.

Hu Ping followed behind, a corner of her cotton-padded coat peeking out from under the swaddle blanket; the newborn baby must be inside.

"Second brother, where did the flatbed cart go?" Cheng Cai questioned.

"We were just about to push it when we ran into Doctor Qin's family and exchanged a few words," Cheng Er replied, then said to Li Yingtang, "I have to go now."

Li Yingtang hummed in agreement.

Cheng Fang's eyes lingered on Li Yingtang several times.

She slipped and fell last night, which upset her baby, and she gave birth a week early.

It was close to the scheduled time.

Logically speaking, Li Yingtang is only three months away from her due date, so why doesn't she show any signs of pregnancy?
She had just given birth and was feeling weak all over. She called out to Li Yingtang, who was about to leave, "Dr. Qin, weren't you pregnant? Why aren't you showing?"

Li Yingtang: "What's it to you whether I show my pregnancy first?"

Hu Ping pouted: "Being a city person really makes a difference. They speak to us country folk with such veiled barbs."

"It's my business if I'm happy," Li Yingtang rolled her eyes and rode away on her bike.

Cheng Fang said, "Mom, she should be almost six months along. Does she look pregnant?"

Hu Ping stared at Li Yingtang's retreating figure: "No way. At six months pregnant, your face and eyes swell up, and your nose gets bigger too. Look at your nose, how much bigger is it than before? She hasn't changed at all, riding her bike so fast. Is that something a pregnant woman would do?"

Cheng Fang: "But I heard her chatting with Wu Hong and saying that she was pregnant."

“Either she miscarried, or she faked a pregnancy, deliberately saying she was pregnant in the village because she was afraid people in our village would say she couldn’t have children.” Hu Ping continued to belittle her: “So what if she’s pretty and married well? She’s still unlucky if she can’t have children. Fang’er, you’re luckier than her, you have a son.”

Qin Xian is such a fool. If he had married her daughter back then, the child would have been born long ago.

Now look what happened, they're extinct.

Cheng Fang was in great distress, scratching her head and cheeks. Li Yingtang didn't have children, so who would she exchange her child with?
A bad idea popped into my head in a flash.

With so many babies being born in the hospital, it wouldn't be difficult to find a suitable partner to swap babies with.

"Mom, it's so cold outside, why don't we stay at the hospital for the night?"

Cheng Cai was the first to object: "Isn't hospitalization free?"

Cheng Fang: "I gave birth to a son for you, shouldn't you spend a little money on me?"

"I have no money. If you want to stay, you'll have to pay for it yourself," Cheng Cai said defiantly.

Hu Ping also said, "Don't stay here. You have a place to lie down, but we don't. We'll have to spend money on food and drinks here."

Cheng Fang pulled Hu Ping aside and whispered her plan: "We'll find a rich family to take him in, and then we'll reclaim him when he grows up. We'll be able to enjoy a life of luxury then."

"How can we know who has money to give birth at the hospital?"

Cheng Fang: "Those dressed well in the ward must be rich."

Their family might be even better off than Doctor Qin's.

Just then, Cheng Er pushed the flatbed cart over: "Little sister, the cart is here."

Cheng Fang said, "I'm still feeling a little unwell and would like to see a doctor."

Cheng Er's face was long and drawn. Why was there so much trouble?
Cheng Cai said this aloud: "I think you want to be hospitalized and waited on by others."

“It’s so cold outside and the weather isn’t great, let’s just stay one night, I’ll pay for it.” Hu Ping was willing to pay the price for a better future.

Cheng Cai had nothing to say.

Cheng Er: "Since you're not leaving, I'll go first. My family is waiting for me to slaughter the pig. You can pull the cart back yourselves tomorrow."

"Alright, you can go now." Hu Ping waved her hand, dismissing Cheng Er.

Cheng Er had been busy all morning and hadn't eaten. On his way back, he stopped at a breakfast stall, bought two steamed buns, and ate them by the roadside.

A greeting came from behind.

"Second Brother Cheng".

As Li Yingtang walked out of the department store toward the cosmetics store, she saw Cheng Er and came over to say hello.

Cheng Er chuckled, "Doctor Qin's family, you're here to buy food too?"

“It’s almost Chinese New Year, you should be buying gifts to go back to your parents’ home. Why are you here alone? Where are Cheng Fang and the others?” Li Yingtang said.

"Sigh," Cheng Er kept complaining, "If it weren't for the village's arrangement, I wouldn't have bothered to come out. My own wife gave birth at home. Sending Cheng Fang all the way to the city to give birth, we get no benefit whatsoever, and then they just kick us to the curb after using us." Li Yingtang had a feeling that this was no good.

Why did you suddenly change your mind before leaving and stay at the hospital?

Are you after the heating in the hospital?

How to communicate with new mothers about how to take care of their babies?
Or is there another purpose?

Hey!
Why do you think so much?

It's none of her business.

She chatted with Cheng Er for a few minutes before leaving and waiting at the cosmetics store until closing time.

When she got home, Aunt Wang said that Li Zhengui had arrived and was waiting for her in the living room.

When Li Yingtang entered the house, she saw Li Zhengui sitting properly on the sofa, holding an apple and eating it.

"Tangtang, you're back." Li Zhengui stepped forward with a smile, pointing to the gift boxes on the ground: "Mom arranged for me to deliver these New Year's gifts. I'll stay here tonight, and I'll take you home for dinner tomorrow."

What day is tomorrow?

"The eve of the Lunar New Year".

"Oh, okay." Li Yingtang asked Aunt Wang to tidy up Li Zhengui's room and asked him what he wanted to eat.

Lee Jin-kyu didn't mince words: "Braised lion's head meatballs, shrimp with chopped chili peppers, roast duck, and spicy diced chicken."

Li Yingtang called for a halt: "My house isn't a restaurant. We don't have prawns, roast duck, or diced chicken."

Aunt Yu said, "We have diced chicken."

Li Yingtang then said, "Then let's do as he says. Also, let's have braised cabbage and tofu puffs, stir-fried greens, and a vegetable soup. Steamed rice will be fine too."

"Okay." Aunt Yu started cooking.

Li Yingtang leaned back on the sofa reading the newspaper. Li Zhengui finished eating his apple, threw away the core, and sat down next to her, saying, "Your belly is so big, can I touch it?"

Li Yingtang immediately sat up straight: "No."

What kind of father touches his daughter's pregnant belly?

Although he is a child, he has the status of an elder.

"If you can't, you can't. Why are you so upset?" Lee Jin-kyu turned on the TV to pass the time, glancing at her pregnant belly every now and then: "Why is your belly sometimes there and sometimes not? Aren't you tired of this?"

Li Yingtang laughed speechlessly: "I leaned forward slightly, and the loose sweater covered it up. I'm a little tired."

Carrying such a big belly, how can it not be tiring?
Had dinner.

Li Yingtang took a bath and rested, and slept without any dreams.

I woke up at eight in the morning.

Lee Jin-kyu was waiting in the living room early, along with Wu Hong, whom he hadn't seen in a long time.

"Doctor Qin's wife, are you up?"

Li Yingtang: "Sister-in-law Cheng, good morning! You're free today?"

"The second brother slaughtered the pig at dawn, and I picked out some meat and ribs to bring over."

"You're too kind. Meat is so expensive, I can't accept it," Li Yingtang replied.

"Why can't we accept it? We must accept it."

Li Yingtang personally selected the return gifts: "Take these back with you too."

"Need not."

“If you don’t take it, I don’t want the meat either,” Li Yingtang said, and Wu Hong stopped refusing.

"I heard from the second brother yesterday that Dr. Qin has gone abroad."

Li Yingtang confirmed: "Yes."

"When are you coming back?"

"At the time, it was said to be six months, around the end of June."

Wu Hong looked at Li Yingtang's pregnant belly: "You'll have to give birth by then, won't you? Your belly isn't big at all, it doesn't look like you're almost six months pregnant."

Li Yingtang: "I haven't gained much weight, you only think I'm small when I wear loose clothes."
