Yukinoshita's Correction Method
Haruno Yukinoshita gave a thumbs up. "Excellent Chinese writing! Shizuka will be so proud."
Dong Yunshan looked at the album repeatedly for a while, and amidst Yukino Yukinoshita's protests, she took a few photos of her as a childhood souvenir before finally returning the album with satisfaction.
A phone call came from the Night Escape Agency. While Dong Yunshan was on the phone, Yukino's mother pulled Yukino Yukinoshita to her side. "Yukino..."
"Mom?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked at her mother with a puzzled expression. "What's wrong?"
In her memory, Xue's mother rarely showed such a hesitant expression.
"Mom wants to tell you..." Xue's mother carefully chose her words, "... something very important."
"Hmm." Yukino Yukinoshita sat up straight. "What exactly is it about?"
"Regarding..." Recalling Dong Yunshan's appearance during her morning workout, Xue's mother's eyes flickered slightly, "It's just that you two are still young, there's no need to rush."
Yukino Yukinoshita blinked. "Are you referring to the marriage registration? We weren't in a rush anyway."
"It's not about the paperwork." Snow Mother pressed her slender fingers to her temples as if she had a headache, letting out a sigh that was both helpless and weary. "I'm talking about the baby."
"W-what?" Yukino Yukinoshita blue eyes widened instantly, her face flushed red. "We... I... I'm not pregnant... I mean, we're not in a hurry."
"Pregnancy shouldn't be rushed, and mindset is a significant factor," Xue's mother earnestly reminded her. "What I mean is, you're still young, and you can't be too direct just because you're married. You need to take precautions like you did before marriage."
Yukino Yukinoshita froze for a moment.
"Although you may not like it, this is very important for your future studies and career plans," Xue's mother said earnestly. "You and Yunshan should have a good talk... Hmm?"
Seeing Yukino Yukinoshita gaze, Yukino's mother narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "After your marriage, you two didn't... give any thought to this aspect, did you?"
"...Hmm." Yukino Yukinoshita responded softly, her gaze shifting slightly.
"I understand." Snow Mother shook her head helplessly, "As long as you pay more attention in the future... no, wait."
Sensing Yukino Yukinoshita conscience, Yukino's mother tentatively asked, "You two didn't... take any precautions before the marriage, did you?"
Yukino Yukinoshita lowered her head and said softly, "Mmm."
"You guys... sigh~" Snow Mother rarely rubbed her temples with both hands, then suddenly paused. "Wait, you just said you're not pregnant right now?"
"Yes!" Yukino Yukinoshita nodded hurriedly, "I'm sure not."
Snow Mother immediately became a little nervous. "When was your first time?"
"It's..." Yukino Yukinoshita answered softly, " On Yunshan's birthday."
"Five months? That's within the normal range. Only if there are still no results after a year should a preliminary examination be conducted." Xue's mother was still somewhat worried. "How often do you do it?"
Yukino Yukinoshita blinked blankly. "How often... does it?"
Snow Mother vaguely guessed what was going on. "You don't do this every day, do you...?"
Yukino Yukinoshita secretly avoided her mother's gaze.
Snow Mother recalled how Dong Yunshan used to exercise, "Doing it every day... more than once?"
Yukino Yukinoshita nodded gently, her face flushed as if she had a fever.
"No wonder..." Xue's mother suddenly realized, "Basically once every one to two days can cover the window period to the greatest extent. A frequency that is much higher or lower than this will affect the probability."
"I see." Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her cherry lips slightly, her icy blue eyes, shimmering with light, looking at her mother. "Then, do we need...?"
Chapter 877 About Preparing for Pregnancy
"You..." Snow Mother hesitated, lost in thought, "Hmm..."
Five months without pregnancy is indeed within the normal range.
Furthermore, the two of them are... quite frequent, which further reduces the probability, so there's no need to worry too much about their health.
But... what if?
Compared to the possibility of not having a baby, Xue's mother immediately felt that her daughter having a baby sooner was completely acceptable.
But the most important thing is...
"What are your thoughts?" Snow Mother sighed softly. "Do you want it a few years later, or do you want it now?"
Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her cherry lips and rubbed her flat stomach. "I... I don't have any particular thoughts."
What did Yunshan say?
"He said if I get pregnant, he'll take a break from school with me," Yukino Yukinoshita said softly. "He seems really looking forward to it..."
Snow Mother's expression suddenly turned serious. "So that's why he doesn't want to wear it?"
"No... it's not that we didn't intend to take any precautions." Yukino Yukinoshita blushed. "But it's not that we ignored the possibility of... pregnancy. It's just that, knowing this possibility, we felt that it would be fine whether we were pregnant or not."
Snow's mother took her daughter's hand. "Are you really ready?"
"It's impossible to be fully prepared for something like this, isn't it?" Yukino Yukinoshita twitched her fingers, then grasped her mother's hand. "But I have experience taking care of babies, and I've been practicing abstinence during pregnancy with him these past few days..."
Yukino Yukinoshita's voice suddenly paused, and her ears turned red.
It seems like I don't need to tell my mom about things like pregnancy simulations...
"Practice..." Snow Mother's eyes flickered slightly, "Who suggested it?"
"Ah? It's... it's me."
"You've already started preparations for pregnancy; it seems you're looking forward to it too." Xue's mother released her daughter's hand. "Then let's go with your plan. Mom will help you out."
"Mom..." Yukino Yukinoshita hesitated for a moment, then hugged her tightly. "Thank you~"
Snow Mother paused for a moment, then pulled her arms around and hugged her daughter.
-
I'm still a little worried...
After thinking it over, Xue's mother took out her phone, intending to contact a doctor for advice.
Huh?
Speaking of doctors...
"Huh?" Dong Yunjin's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Why did you think of calling me?"
"Yunshan and Yukino been staying here for the past two days..." Yukino's mother paused, "I only found out today that they didn't take any precautions."
"Ah..." Dong Yunjin smiled, "Newlyweds... that's understandable."
Snow Mother: "Five months."
"...That brat." Dong Yunjin clicked her tongue. "I'll teach him a lesson. He's only thinking of himself..."
"This is their decision, and I'm not here to complain to you," Xue's mother interrupted Dong Yunjin. "I wanted to ask, as a doctor—albeit an orthopedic one—what do you think about their not having a baby yet?"
"This is normal..." Dong Yunjin quickly understood Xue Mu's thoughts. "Are you a little worried?"
"I know this is normal, but..." Snow Mother sighed softly.
"You're really worried..." Dong Yunjin reminded her, "Then you'll probably be worried for a long time."
"Hmm?" Snow Mother asked suspiciously, "From what you're saying, you anticipated this situation? You even feel... they might not have a baby for a long time?"
"Theoretically speaking, that's how it is." Dong Yunjin paused. "You should have already noticed that Yunshan's physical abilities are a bit excessive."
"After all, he's your child." Xue's mother was deeply impressed by Dong Yunjin's strength.
"She's much stronger than me~" Dong Yunjin's voice carried a hint of smugness. "And, Yukino's constitution is a little weaker, right?"
"Very weak," Snow Mother stated bluntly.
"If one partner is physically very healthy and the other is relatively weak, coupled with frequent intimacy, there's a high probability of this happening," Dong Yunjin further explained. "In addition, Yunshan's high-intensity training also has an impact, and psychological factors must also be considered; if the pressure is too great..."
"Pressure..." Snow Mother murmured softly.
Looking back on the situation before the marriage, Yuki's mother did indeed put a lot of pressure on Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita.
Looking back further, throughout her childhood, Yukino Yukinoshita endured considerable pressure for a long period of time.
"Their pressure should be much less after marriage." Snow's mother sorted out her thoughts. "So theoretically speaking, if we let Yunshan stop exercising for a while, while letting Yukino exercise reasonably to improve her physique, and then adjust the frequency of intimacy, we can have a child sooner?"
Dong Yunjin quickly gave a clear answer, "No."
Snow Mother frowned. "Why?"
"First of all, such adjustments take time; they can't be rushed. Secondly, lifestyle adjustments also affect mental and physical well-being, and it's impossible to accurately judge whether the effects are good or bad. Finally..." Dong Yunjin's voice carried a hint of helplessness, "You're just adding pressure to them by making these demands."
"..." Snow Mother was inexplicably annoyed. "Aren't you worried at all?"
"They don't have a baby yet, and they're getting along very well. Isn't it nice to enjoy some more time as a couple?" Dong Yunjin chuckled. "As for pregnancy, what's there to worry about, whether it's sooner or later?"
Snow Mother frowned deeply. "What if it still hasn't happened after a year?"
"We can figure something out later. It's only been five months." Dong Yunjin, somewhat puzzled, "Do you want them to have a child now? Are you in a hurry?"
"I didn't..." Snow Mother was taken aback.
Yes, her main concern was that her daughter's early pregnancy would affect her studies.
Judging from what Dong Yunjin said, Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita won't have a baby anytime soon, so she should be relieved.
Why are you starting to worry again...?
The image of herself letting go of her daughter's hand and then being hugged back by her daughter inexplicably flashed into her mind, and Xue's mother lowered her eyelids slightly.
"They're both really looking forward to it, so I wanted to offer some help." Mother Xue's brow relaxed, and she gently shook her head. "But thinking about it carefully, this process of anticipation is a rare and wonderful experience for newlyweds. Let them experience it for themselves."
Chapter 878 Thinking Wrong Again
"Today I talked to my mom about being pregnant..." Yukino Yukinoshita gently poked Dong Yunshan's cheek, "Did you hear everything?"
"I caught the gist of it." Dong Yunshan pointed to his ear. "I can't help it, my hearing is just that good."
"I wasn't praising you!" Yukino Yukinoshita pinched his ear. "I was asking what you think."
"My thoughts..." Dong Yunshan propped herself up on the bed, leaned against the headboard, and patted her legs. "Sit on top of me."
Yukino Yukinoshita paused for a moment, then placed her small hand on his waist. "I'm asking for your thoughts, not what you want to do!"
"See, you're getting the wrong idea again." Dong Yunshan patted her head. "I wanted to talk to you about this in a serious manner."
"Ah... alright then." Yukino Yukinoshita blushed slightly, skillfully sitting on Dong Yunshan's lap, facing him. The moment their eyes met, the blush on her face spread even further, and she shifted uncomfortably. "Look at yourself, is this too formal?"
"Standing up is a bit too formal. This should be more solemn than lying down... I guess." Dong Yunshan took Yukino Yukinoshita's hand, gazing into her icy blue eyes. "Yukino."
"That seems a bit too serious..." Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes flickered before she met his serious gaze again. "So... what are your thoughts?"
"I'm really enjoying our life right now, and I'm really looking forward to our little baby." Dong Yunshan gently squeezed Yukino Yukinoshita's hand. "Both of these are wonderful things that I never dared to imagine before. Whether it's the continuation of our life as a couple or the arrival of our baby, it's something to be happy about for me. So I feel... that we can't control when the baby arrives is actually a good thing."
Yukino Yukinoshita tilted her head and quickly followed Dong Yunshan's line of thought, "Because this matter is probabilistic, there's no need to think about how to decide?"
"Yes, it's two happy things. If I really had to choose..." Dong Yunshan's voice was soft, "It's like asking me to choose between watching a movie with you or having dinner together. Both of these things make me happy, and I simply don't know which one to choose."
"So your idea is..." Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes flashed with realization, "To let things take their course?"
"The idea is to let things take their natural course, but in terms of execution..." Dong Yunshan blinked, "I want to try a little harder."
Yukino Yukinoshita bit her lower lip, her slender waist swaying, and gave him a light tap, half warning and half reproach. "How much harder do you want to try?"
During the previous showdown, I spent several days in a row doing nothing but eating and working hard in bed.
There are also sofas, dining tables, bathrooms...
Dong Yunshan actually wants to try even harder?
"You're getting the wrong idea again." Dong Yunshan held Yukino Yukinoshita's leg. "What I mean is that pregnancy is affected by both physical and psychological factors, which are interconnected and indispensable."
"Hmm." Yukino Yukinoshita nodded gently. "So?"
"After five months without getting pregnant, it's partly a matter of probability, and partly it could be that our bodies and minds aren't ready yet." Dong Yunshan's hand gently glided over Yukino Yukinoshita's plump legs. "I'm quite confident in my own body, so in the future, I should take better care of your health and make you feel happier—and for that, I will work even harder than before."
"I feel great right now." Yukino Yukinoshita bent down and hugged Dong Yunshan. "You've already tried so hard... Hearing you say that, I feel like it's you who needs me to work harder mentally."
Dong Yunshan hugged Yukino Yukinoshita and whispered in her ear, "I suddenly realized, baby, do you feel that we're doing too well right now, so you're embarrassed to bother us and decided to come later?"
"It's a good idea, but it has no scientific basis." Yukino Yukinoshita paused, "However... it is one direction."
Dong Yunshan: "Huh? You mean, because we were so happy when we... our bodies wanted to enjoy it for a longer time, so it suppressed the pregnancy?"
"No, from a modern medical perspective, that's completely impossible. But..." Yukino Yukinoshita gently bit Dong Yunshan's ear, "There is one exception."
"Exception?"
