Shocking! A Hong Kong socialite gave birth to three heirs to a wealthy family.

Chapter 235 Gu Jinxing's Former Room

The aunt's face froze instantly, and then she glared fiercely at her cousin.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Back then, we could still marry concubines. If my family really had such thoughts, we would have taken in several concubines."

The aunt smiled and said, "My cousin was just thinking of his nephew. He was afraid that you might accidentally kill his aunt, since his nephew has no mother."

"Gu Qingqing, what do you mean?"

Seeing that the two sisters-in-law were about to start arguing, Wen Nan quickly spoke up to interrupt them.

"Qingqing was just joking, but what you said isn't right, cousin-in-law. You really can't stay in bed all day during postpartum confinement; you still need to get up and move around. One of my best friends didn't get out of bed for a whole month during her postpartum confinement; she didn't wash her hair or take a shower, and what happened?"

Wen Nan sighed and continued, "The wound healed slowly, and I also got... venous thrombosis, which almost cost me my life."

"Is this true?"

"It's true, you can ask the Qi family if you don't believe me. So, you still have to listen to the doctor, appropriate exercise can promote recovery."

Someone nodded in agreement with Wen Nan's words, "No wonder young people nowadays like to go to the hospital for prenatal checkups. Back then, we would only go once when we confirmed we were pregnant, and then again when we gave birth."

"That's right. It's hard to say whether all those prenatal checkups during pregnancy are actually useful, but at least they give you peace of mind."

Shen Wancheng continued, "It's not just about buying peace of mind. Think about it, before prenatal checkups, you gave birth to healthy children, but what about the birth rate of normal children? In the past, which large family or village didn't have some mentally challenged or disabled children born? How many fewer are there now? Isn't it all because prenatal checkups excluded these mentally challenged or disabled children from the family?"

Gu Qingnian, who had once miscarried, looked slightly somber and nodded in agreement, saying, "Wan Cheng is right."

Following this topic, everyone started talking about gossip and interesting stories from other families, and finally the conversation stopped focusing on Shen Wancheng.

Shen Wancheng, however, was reminded of a money-making idea that had suddenly come to her during a meal with He Lin at the He Mansion when they were chatting today.

Open a postpartum care center.

Shen Wancheng met with wealthy people and rich wives today.

However, these people still have only a superficial understanding of scientific postpartum care and follow the traditions of the older generation.

Shen Wancheng firmly believes that women need to rest and recuperate after childbirth, and does not follow the foreign practice of allowing women to do whatever they want a week after giving birth.

Let's put aside the traditional belief that women who don't take good care of themselves during postpartum recovery will suffer the consequences in old age. Even from a scientific perspective, childbirth is a very taxing experience, so shouldn't we take good care of ourselves after giving birth?

However, Shen Wancheng felt that postpartum confinement was necessary, but it shouldn't be done entirely according to what the older generation said; postpartum confinement should be done scientifically.

For example, when it comes to showering and washing hair, Shen Wancheng simply cannot imagine how many bacteria would grow if someone didn't shower or wash their hair for a month.

Shen Wancheng felt that the main reason why women were not allowed to wash their hair and bathe in the past was that their immunity was low after giving birth, making them susceptible to catching a cold. In the past, people's living environment did not allow them to avoid catching a cold after washing their hair and bathing.

But things are different now. Now even middle-class families have air conditioning and hair dryers at home.

You can completely avoid the problem of catching a cold after showering or washing your hair.

According to the knowledge Shen Wancheng gained from the system, ginger has the effect of dispelling cold. Boiling ginger water and letting it cool to a suitable temperature before using it for bathing or washing hair will avoid the problem of raw water being too cold.

Even this kind of knowledge is something these wealthy women don't have access to in this information age.

Shen Wancheng thought that since she was also pregnant, she would set up a postpartum care center before she gave birth, so that when she finished her postpartum period, her figure and complexion would be back to normal. That would be the best advertisement.

The more Shen Wancheng thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

While others were chatting enthusiastically about gossip, Shen Wancheng was preoccupied with how to set up her postpartum care center and what supporting services it would need.

Seeing that Shen Wancheng was lost in thought, Wen Nan asked her, "Wancheng, are you sleepy? Shall I accompany you back to your room to rest for a while?"

Everyone else stopped talking and looked at them.

Shen Wancheng smiled at the others, "Sorry, aunts and uncles, I'm getting sleepy, I really need to go take a nap."

"It's okay, we've all been there, we understand. It's important for you to rest."

Shen Wancheng then said to Wen Nan, "Mom, I can go to my room by myself, you don't need to come with me."

Wen Nan had already stood up. "No, I'll take you to your room and then come back."

Others laughed, "We've only ever seen men clinging to their wives, this is the first time we've seen a mother-in-law clinging to her daughter-in-law."

Wen Nan also laughed and said, "Then it can only be said that other mothers-in-law haven't met a daughter-in-law like Wan Cheng."

So, Shen Wancheng, arm in arm with Wen Nan, went to a small building next to the main building under everyone's watchful eyes.

Gu Jinxing certainly has his own room in the Gu Mansion, but Shen Wancheng has not lived there since she married Gu Jinxing.

After escorting Shen Wancheng to her room, Wen Nan returned home. The Gu family's main residence only had two female heads of household, Wen Nan and Shen Wancheng, and it would be inappropriate if neither of them were present.

Shen Wancheng then looked around Gu Jinxing's room.

This room must have been where Gu Jinxing lived when he was young and studying. The room was very large and had a three-tiered bookshelf. The books on the bookshelf included textbooks from junior high school to university.

Shen Wancheng was a little curious about what junior and senior high schools in Hong Kong studied, so she picked up a book and flipped through it.

Shen Wancheng was surprised to find that, in addition to the history subject and Chinese history, she also had to study European history, with a focus on the history of the British Empire. Other subjects were not much different from those in the mainland.

Shen Wancheng was so engrossed in watching that she didn't notice Gu Jinxing opening the door and entering the room.

"What? You're already looking at junior and senior high school textbooks? Are you already planning to tutor our kids with their homework?"

Shen Wancheng was startled by Gu Jinxing's sudden voice.

She glared at Gu Jinxing, then patted her chest to calm herself down.

Gu Jinxing tensed up immediately, took two steps to Shen Wancheng, patted Shen Wancheng on the back and asked.

"Were you startled? Sorry, I didn't notice you were so engrossed in watching."

It was just a minor incident, and Shen Wancheng quickly recovered.

"It's okay. Next time, cough once to remind me before you speak."

"Okay, I'll be more careful next time."

Shen Wancheng asked again, "Why did you come up here too? You can't just leave so easily, can you?"

As the current head of the Gu family, Gu Jinxing is someone all the Gu family members want to show their faces under his nose as much as possible in order to make more money in the Gu family business. So, they all naturally cling to him in such situations.

Gu Jinxing said calmly, "It's not difficult at all. I said I came up to accompany Madam, so they can't possibly follow me, can they?"

Shen Wancheng's eyes widened slightly. "You really say that?"

Gu Jinxing chuckled and nodded, "Is that really true?"

Shen Wancheng nudged Gu Jinxing.

"You're not ashamed, but I am. Don't say that again."

Gu Jinxing continued to smile.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say, Mrs. Gu. You can say whatever you want from now on."
