Sheng Chuyi laughed and said, "The change in human emotions is related to secretion. When someone is tense or excited, the release of acetylcholine in the body increases, which promotes an increase in the secretion of adrenal cortical hormones. That’s why babies born to happy mothers are prettier."
"How do you even know that?" Shen Zhaozhao asked in surprise as she looked at him.
Sheng Chuyi turned on his phone and handed it to her, saying, "Information age, just look it up online." The moment the doctor announced the pregnancy, he had already used his phone to search for a list of things pregnant women need to be aware of.
Shen Zhaozhao said, "Then I definitely need to stay happier from now on."
Although the couple continued their honeymoon trip, many plans were changed on the fly because of Shen Zhaozhao’s sudden pregnancy, such as skiing in Switzerland and soaking in the thermal springs at Heviz Thermal Spring Town, which were all canceled.
However, they visited many famous sites; they went to the Rhine River to see waterfalls, to the medieval gem of Eastern Europe, Prague, saw St. Vitus Cathedral, went to Vienna to enjoy music and dance performances, visited the Alps, and finally reached Switzerland, known as the world’s garden, to enjoy the snow and stroll.
The original plan of a week was postponed to 12 days because they were worried Shen Zhaozhao would get too tired; in just half a month, they had seen both Eastern and Western Europe.
Upon returning to Jing City, Shen Zhaozhao’s face had noticeably thinned, but she looked very spirited.
The first thing Qin Suxin did when she saw Shen Zhaozhao was to scold Sheng Chuyi, "I told you to take good care of her, look at what you’ve done?"
Shen Zhaozhao hurried to speak in his defense, "It’s not Yiyi’s fault, it’s just that I was not accustomed to the food abroad." Mainly it was the morning sickness, and running around outside every day caused her to lose weight.
But she was genuinely happy.
Qin Suxin, speaking from experience, knew that pregnancy was not easy and said with pain, "You should move back home, I’ll cook some good food to nourish you."
Shen Zhaozhao had no objections; after all, living anywhere was the same for her, and since her holiday was not yet over, she didn’t need to rush back to school for classes early in the morning. Sheng Chuyi also felt that living at home was better since there were people to look after her. They moved back to the Sheng family home that same day.
Young Uncle, Sheng Yeli, was also at home, and when he heard she was pregnant, he couldn’t help but stare at her belly as soon as Shen Zhaozhao walked through the door.
Despite being mature for his age, he was still just a child.
Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t resist teasing him, "Do you want to touch it?"
Young Uncle Sheng Yeli immediately averted his gaze, his little face stern and expressionless as he said, "Pregnant for two months, the fetus is about 2.5cm in size, about the size of a grape, what do you think I could feel?"
Shen Zhaozhao’s eyes widened as she turned to look at Sheng Chuyi.
Really, why should a child know so much? You can’t even trick him, not cute at all!
Shen Zhaozhao said, "Fine then, but in a few months when the baby is born, you’ll be the young uncle. You used to play with me and your brother every day when you were little, now when your little nephew or niece comes, you will have to take responsibility to play with them. Do you want to start learning now, how to take care of babies?" He was so smart, he would surely catch on quickly.
Shen Zhaozhao was very confident in him.
Young Uncle Sheng Yeli, since birth, probably hadn’t heard such an absurd request before and stared at her, speechless for a long while.
Could she be any less polite?
