Chapter 233 - 228: Blurted Out
Exactly how many months juzi had been pregnant, everyone in the family had grown attached to the child.
Luckily, juzi’s disposition has always been cheerful. Waking up after the surgery last night, when she learned that she had lost her baby, she wailed loudly. Afterward, she cursed Bai Jing through gritted teeth, and once she calmed down, she seemed to have accepted the reality.
Seeing Fang Pingying coming, she cried for a while and then it was as if nothing major had happened.
She sobbed a few times and, childlike, pouted at Fang Pingying, "Sister-in-law, the baby had been in my belly for several months, and these days, I really suffered a lot to carry him."
Zeng Yueji, upon hearing this, scolded and tapped on her head, "What suffering did you endure? You just had to stay home and couldn’t go out to have fun, that’s all."
"juzi, it’s alright, don’t cry, you just had surgery, crying too much isn’t good," Fang Pingying smiled and patted her head. "I brought chicken soup for you, have some."
With that, Fang Pingying took the chicken soup from Huang Lin’s hands and tried to feed it to her.
"I..." juzi had been forced by Zeng Yueji to eat a bowl of porridge, and her stomach was too full, "I don’t want to eat, I have no appetite."
Fang Pingying poured a small bowl and handed it to her, whispering persuasively, "Have a little bit. Zhiyong and Hong Lan got up early to buy it from the market, and I stewed it myself. It’s nutritious and good for your recovery."
Zeng Yueji quietly nodded in approval upon seeing Fang Pingying’s actions, feeling that Fang Pingying knew how to interact with people and was sensible. It was good for juzi to have her as a friend.
After Fang Pingying gave the chicken soup to juzi, she said with a smile, "Xiao Fang, you’re really thoughtful. I was even planning to go to the market later to buy some for her. I didn’t expect you to have it ready so early in the morning; you’ve gone through a lot of trouble."
"It’s no trouble," Fang Pingying took the opportunity to apologize to Zeng Yueji, "Auntie, speaking of which, it’s all my fault what happened to juzi, I feel terribly guilty..."
