    Zhao Chuchu quickly used diagnosing Zhao Men as an excuse to leave the crowd and avoid socializing with a massive group of people.


    Zhao Men told Zhao Chuchu, “My mother-inw and the other family members really like you. That’s why they are so zealous to mingle with you. Normally, they seldom keep in touch with other people. I hope you don’t mind.”


    “I don’t really mind. I am just ufortable when they are so enthusiastic.” In reality, Zhao Chuchu did not like the families of her former patients crowning her as their lifesaver.


    She merely kept in touch with the Hu n because she felt they were congenial.


    As for the other patients, Zhao Chuchu considered her rtionships with them to be that of a merchant and a customer. She would offer them her service as long as they paid her enough. There was no such thing as debts of gratitude.


    Zhao Men said, “I will tell them not to be like this next time. Otherwise, you will not visit us again.”


    Zhao Chuchu jokingly said, “If the food here is delicious, I will stille back.”


    “Didn’t Brother-inwe back with you?


    “He is busy with his studies at the academy since hell be sitting for the examination next year. So, he didn’te back.”


    Zhao Men agreed. “Indeed. The same goes for mv husband. He ns to take the examination two yearster, so he has been studying diligently now. He sleeps veryte every night. Sigh.”


    Zhao Chuchu teased, “You care a great deal for him, I see.” Zhao Men was thin-skinned. She blushed right away.


    “Sister Chuchu!”


    Zhao Chuchu said, “Isn’t it normal for a wife to care much for her husband? I also pity Xie Heng, but he only has himself to depend on when ites to the examination. We can’t do much to help them.”


    Zhao Men replied, “Indeed. The only thing I can do is cook more good food for Yiming. That i s right. Sister Chuchu, why didn’t you tell me you were returning? I could have also visited you in the vige.”


    Speaking of this, Zhao Chuchu couldn’t help but burst outughing. She said, “Initially, I didn’t n to visit you so quickly. However, Grandma Chen imed that as someone who had been pregnant before, she could tell that you were pregnant. So, I rushed over to verify her im for myself.”


    Zhao Men was speechless.


    Her face became redder.


    She mumbled, “We…we haven’t even consummated yet. How could I get pregnant?”


    Zhao Chuchuforted her, saying, “Don’t take it to heart. Grandma Chen has your best interests in mind. It’s normal for her to assume such a thing since you’re married, don’t you think? Moreover, Grandma Chen is not someone who will spread rumors.”


    “Hmm, I know. However, why did Grandma Chen think that I was pregnant?” Zhao Men was less shy after Zhao Chuchu addressed the topic openly.


    Zhao Chuchu exined, “She told me thatst time you went to the vige, you walked differently, and Yiming paid close attention to you.”


    Zhao Men was stunned for a moment before she responded, “Grandma Chen was way too observant. Last time, I identally twisted my ankle, and my husband was worried about me. I am really not pregnant. My mom and mother-inw told me I should not have sex with my husband before I turned


    Otherwise, it’s not good for my body.”


    Madam Zhou was a good mother-inw. She was concerned about Zhao Men’s well-being.


    “Men, do you want my advice?


    “Hmm? Speak your mind.”


    “Actually, it’s best to consummate your marriage after turning 18. Giving birth at 18 will be even better.”


    After all, a 16 -year-old was still going through puberty.


    “Alright. I will remember that,” answered Zhao Men in a soft voice. Her face was bright red again.


    “Of course, this is just my suggestion,” added Zhao Chuchu. People of this era promoted the ideology of having children early. She saw no reason to force her thinking from her previous life onto anyone here.


    Zhao Men argued, “You’re a physician. What you say is definitely true.”


    “Come, give me your arm. I will check your pulse.”


    Zhao Men did as she was told.


    The diagnosis aligned with what Zhao Chuchu had concluded from her current observation. Zhao Men was healthy.


    Zhao Chuchu announced, “Your body is healthy. In the future, you will have no problem giving birth to a chubby little boy or a pretty little girl.”


    “Sister Chuchu, you are teasing me again.”


    “I’m not. I’m telling you the truth. How are your parents doing? Are they well?” “They’re doing great. They moved to town to sell tofu. My mom said the sales are good. They are earning more now than when they were farming.”


    Zhao Chuchu said, “I remember you told me before that your parents had stopped selling tofu because they couldn’t keep up with the workload.”


    Zhao Men exined, “My dad said we need more money to raise the young, so he is willing to work hard. My mom raised no objections, so they started selling tofu again..”
