The protection of pregnant women in the 19th century is definitely not as comprehensive as that in the 21st century.

In this era, as the most advanced city in the United States and even the world, there is not even a specialized infant hospital in the entire city. There are tens of thousands of accidents caused by the birth of babies every year across the United States, and hundreds of infants die almost every day.

This is not an exaggeration. This is an era with extremely backward medical standards. A large-scale cold may take away tens of thousands of lives. Women's childbirth is even more a gate of hell. If you are not careful, you will be a corpse and two lives.

Of course, this is almost impossible for Chuxue to happen. Li Mu has the conditions to hire the best family doctor in the United States and even the world. On Governor Island, there is now a regular medical team to ensure Chuxue’s health.

When dealing with pregnant women, the traditional customs of the East and the West are still a bit different. Orientals have always regarded inheritance as a big deal, so the world is vast and pregnant women are the biggest. The East has a unique set of methods to ensure the health of pregnant women before and after childbirth. The West has not yet shown a complete set of theories for this aspect, but generally, it does not recognize the Eastern methods.

Because of Yan's mother, Chuxue's way of giving birth is carried out completely in accordance with the Eastern tradition. Not only did Chuxue's medical team have no say in this regard, Li Mu himself was even more speechless.

"Keep the air in the room circulating, breathe more fresh air, do appropriate activities, eat less and eat more meals..." Li Mu's understanding of pregnant women is limited to this, and he still has to rely more on the experience of a strict mother.

The weather in August is still hot. Although the Governor's Island is surrounded by water, it feels much more comfortable than in New York City, because of Yan's mother's insistence, Chuxue passed the "confinement period" early. In traditional Eastern habits, women are taboo when they are in confinement, such as not being able to get wind, not being cold, not being tired, not being angry, etc. In Yan's mother, all this is strictly implemented. Therefore, although the main building room where Chuxue lives is very light, the balcony and windows are locked to death, preventing all possible air flow.

Of course, traditional culture cannot be completely denied. According to the critical absorption point of view, the essence must be preserved. As for the dross, let’s forget it. In traditional Eastern culture, some of the protection of pregnant women still make sense. It is better not to catch a cold or be too tired, etc., but nothing is too much or too much. Once it is absolutely perfect, it will go into a dead end. At least Li Mu believes that proper ventilation is still necessary.

"I feel that I'm fine now, and I don't want to stay at home all the time. The office has a lot of work backlog..." Chuxue is still thinking about her work and doesn't want to be protected now.

After staying in the United States for a long time, it seems that Chuxue is also resistant to some things in traditional culture. However, unlike most women who have completely let go in the 21st century, Chuxue still retains the best qualities of Eastern women, such as home management, which Chuxue does very well.

Chuxue's serious job is Li Mu's personal assistant and Li Mu's financial officer. Although this position is different from the financial director of Junma Group, it is of no difference at all. At the headquarters of Junma Group in Fort Park, there is a whole floor of the financial department headed by Chuxue. The entire department consists of more than 50 people, responsible for managing Li Mu's private property that has exceeded 200 million US dollars.

This private property and the assets of Junma Group are different. Junma Group is not nominally owned by Li Mu himself, so Li Mu's private property and Junma Group's assets are independent of each other and cannot be confused. Li Mu's private financial management team's main task is to find investment channels for Li Mu's privately owned huge funds, including all shares of Li Mu in Carnegie Reim Steel, Mobil Oil, Panama Canal, Panama, and even Colombia Investment Company, which are under the control of this team.

Since Chuxue confirmed to be pregnant, Chuxue has never been to the headquarters of Junma Group again. Chuxue's work was taken over by her deputy White Leitner.

White Letterner is a top student who graduated from Harvard University. Before joining Li Mu's private financial management team, he worked for the State Bank of New York. Three years ago, after the economic crisis broke out, a personnel change occurred at the State Bank of New York. White Letterner then switched to Junma Group and joined Li Mu's private financial management team.

"You don't have to worry about work. White did a good job. I'm going to let him take charge of financial work in the future. From now on, it's unlikely that you will be able to re-enter your work within 2 to 3 years, so you can rest assured to take care of your baby and don't think too much." Li Mu actually said that before Chuxue's child became an adult, Chuxue probably wouldn't have to come out to work.

Taking care of children is not easy. Li Mu was an orphan in his previous life and an orphan in this life. He has never felt the warmth of the family, so he does not want to leave any regrets for his children.

Parents are indispensable in the process of children's growth. In the 21st century, many people simplify or omit this process by using the excuse of "life force". When children are young, they ask parents of both parties to help them take care of them, and when they grow up, they send them to kindergarten. The only function of parents is to promote the emergence of their children and then try their best to create a better future for their children.

In fact, isn’t this “future” meant to be created by the children themselves? Compared with the rich material conditions, Li Mu pays more attention to the various needs of children’s physical and mental health, among which parents’ companionship is essential. Many people often complain that their children are not close to them. In fact, this should be more about the reasons for adults. Don’t complain that children do not understand themselves, because adults do not understand their children’s real needs.

One thing that is certain is that Li Mu will never pretend to be a lie on the issue of children's education. Even if Yan's mother and Yan's father like children from the bottom of their hearts, Li Mu will not completely let go. No one can replace the status of parents in the hearts of children. It is not just the first snow. When Gloria has a child in the future, Li Mu will also let Gloria leave work and take care of the children at home wholeheartedly.

This sounds a bit unfair, but in fact it is the fairest thing. Li Mu always believes that supporting a family is a man’s responsibility, and a woman’s duty is to take care of her husband and children. As for career, it should never be the focus of a woman’s life.

"Well--" Chuxue has not yet understood Li Mu's real idea, but this does not prevent Chuxue from obeying Li Mu's arrangements. Although all those who have dealt with Chuxue recognize Chuxue's work ability, it is obvious that in this "patriarchal society" dominated by men, Chuxue does not have the idea of ​​becoming an "iron lady".

Seeing Li Mu come back, Yan's mother returned to her room with great eyesight and stayed there, without any intention of coming out to be annoying. Li Mu accompanied Chuxue to walk on the grass downstairs, which was also considered a rare relaxation for Chuxue.

The lawn downstairs is under the care of the maintenance. The green looks very comfortable. When you step on it, it feels like you are in the clouds. It has an invincible feeling of foot. There are irregular pebbles in the lawn. Of course, Chuxue cannot walk on the pebbles now. So after Li Mu and Chuxue went downstairs, they came to the swing on the lawn to sit down. Li Mu was responsible for swinging, and Chuxue was only responsible for being happy.

Pan, who was in his prime, was the only dog ​​on the Governor's Island who had the right to enter and exit the main house at will. Pan was also very attached to Li Mu. He lay down at Li Mu's feet, found a comfortable position and started to sleep.

Chuxue did not follow Yan's mother's instructions to stay away from Pan, took off her shoes, and helped Pan massage her abdomen with her feet. Pan liked Chuxue's closeness very much and used her grown-up silly mouth to express her happiness.

"Pan is very obedient. Once Pan went upstairs and wanted to go to my room, but was scolded by her mother. Since then, Pan only went to the stairs every time and never went upstairs. As soon as I came out, Pan followed me, just like a loyal bodyguard-" Chuxue liked animals very much, no matter big or small, and there were a few girls at home. Gloria was busy with work and was not at home all day. Sandy was recently driven to study at Springfield Institute of Technology by Will, and Chuxue became Pan's best friend.

Speaking of Sandy, after Li Mu and Gloria got engaged, Will sent Sandy to Springfield Institute of Technology for some reason, and did not let Sandy wander around Li Mu and Gloria all day long.

Springfield Institute of Technology is now the largest senior institution in the United States. It has nine departments, more than one hundred classes, and nearly 4,000 teachers and students. This is just the beginning. In a few years, with the increase in graduates from Junma Affiliated Schools, the scale of Springfield Institute of Technology will further expand.

It is worth mentioning that among the nearly 4,000 students, the proportion of Chinese people accounts for more than 60%, which is different from the Junma Affiliated School, which accounts for more than 90%. This is not that Li Mu finally made a hole in education, but that there are not so many graduates in Junma Affiliated School. As long as Chinese students who are qualified to receive higher education are already studying at Springfield Institute of Technology. After another two or three years, the proportion of Chinese students in Springfield Institute of Technology will also exceed 90%. After another twenty years, Chinese people will account for a considerable proportion of those who are engaged in upper-class professions in the United States. At that time, it is time for Li Mu to gain results, and the social status of Chinese people will gradually increase as students enter society. By then, Li Mu does not need to emphasize at all times, and no one dares to target Chinese people anymore, just like the Jews in the United States.

In the United States, although the concept of "equality for everyone" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, inequality between various races still exists. Looking at the relationship between the United States and Israel in the future, it is not as simple as "an ordinary ally". It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a "father". As for the reasons, just look at the proportion of Jews in the upper class of the United States. Think about Trump's daughter Ivanka, who even spent two years to change his beliefs in order to marry Jews. If you only use love to explain all this, it seems a bit thin.

For many Orientals, it is worth it to give everything for love, but this is not the case for Westerners. Orientals do not understand Westerners' persistence in faith, so changing their beliefs is incredible for Westerners. The seriousness is no less than that of a Chinese naturalized Japanese.

Kill - Actually, there are many Chinese who are naturalized in Japan. As the saying goes, there are all kinds of birds in the forest.

"It doesn't matter, you just need to be careful not to contact directly-" Li Mu remembered the taboos of pregnant women in raising dogs. He was about to spread the science, but he thought about it in a flash and there was no need for this at all.

There is no basis for pregnant women not to keep dogs. The impact of dogs on pregnant women is Toxoplasma gondii. This parasite is transmitted through pet feces. As long as pregnant women pay attention to not cleaning pet feces, it doesn’t matter.

Chuxue naturally had no chance to get in touch with Pan's feces. On Governor Island, someone was responsible for taking care of pets' food, clothing, housing and transportation. Chuxue's only task was to play with Pan for a while if you have time, so you don't have to worry about this at all.

After accompanying Chuxue for a walk, Li Mu returned to his office and met Henry who had been waiting for a long time.

"Why don't you let me remind me?" Li Mu felt a little guilty. Henry shouldn't have waited for so long.

As the general manager of Junma Group, Henry's time is also very precious. Henry's assistant team is not smaller than Li Mu's assistant team, and it is even larger. This is related to Henry's work nature. After all, for the current Junma Group, Li Mu is only responsible for the decision on the business direction, and the specific implementation depends on Henry to implement it.

"It's rare that you get off work early, I always leave some private space for you--" Henry was very understanding, took off his glasses from the bridge of his nose, waved his assistant to leave with the documents, leaning against the back of the chair and looking tired.

"Why do I feel that you are working harder and harder? Are there too few deputy general managers who will be assigned to you?" Li Mu was still very humane and was very concerned about Henry's health.

You must be concerned. For the current Junma Group, Henry is definitely more important than Li Mu. If Henry is exhausted, then all the work will be responsible for. Li Mu will not be able to live such a day.

"It's enough, but as the Junma Group grows bigger and more work, but this is no problem, I enjoy it." Henry rubbed his sour eyes and cheered up again.

At the end of last year, Li Mu gave Henry a part of the shares of Junma Group, so now Henry is also a shareholder of Junma Group. In order to make his shares more and more valuable, Henry is also fighting hard. Junma Group has already been lazy enough to have a boss like Li Mu, and Henry does not give him the opportunity to slack off.

"Okay, what's going on this time?" Li Mu knew that Henry would come to Li Mu unless there was a big problem that endangers the operation of the Junma Group.

"It's not a big deal. Washington recently issued a decree requiring all companies to file taxes based on their income. I think this matter cannot be explained clearly on the phone, so I'd better tell you in person." Henry's expression was not serious, and it seemed that it did not raise the matter to a very serious level.
