But she still looked pleasingly at my mom.
"Mom, this soup has a fragrance of traditional Chinese medicine. The baby also moved a bit. He seems to like it very much!"
Looking at the self-deception of these two people, I just felt sad.
It would be strange if the stone moved!
Cathy was a first-time mother, so I wouldn't mention her.
But I really didn't know how my mother managed to have me and my brother.
Didn't she know that the baby should have obvious fetal movements at eight months?
Since she didn't have prenatal checkups, how could she be so lacking in common sense?
I wanted to say it several times, but I was afraid of getting scolded by my mother, so I held back.
On the other hand, Cathy, taking advantage of my mother's good mood, hesitantly looked at her.
"Mom... I've heard from people who have given birth that fetal movements are like a child waving and kicking inside. When it's strong, it can even push up the belly. But my fetal movements are shaking and making noise, is this normal?"
My mother spat on the ground several times in a row.
"Spit spit spit! What nonsense! If it moves, it's fine. Who cares how it moves? Stop saying such bad luck things!"
Cathy quickly hugged my mother's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Mom, I want to eat sour apricots. You won't refuse to buy them for me, will you...?"
My mother looked at me immediately.
"What are you standing there for? Go to the market and buy some sour plums for my grandson!"
Stopping for a moment, my mother changed her mind.
"Forget it, the apricots cost several dollars a pound now. You can just go up the hill and pick some wild apricots yourself!"
Just as Cathy ate two pounds of wild apricots in one sitting that evening, something went wrong.
