"Mom and Dad, did you know all along that Yueyue wanted a second child?"

Ding Qiunan nodded: "That's right, Yueyue told me before that she wanted to have another child."

"Dad, you knew about this too?"

"I don't know, but when Yueyue specifically asked me what punishment her parents were given, I guessed what she was thinking."

After hearing Li Chu's words, Wang Yueyue smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

She thought only her mother-in-law knew, and even specifically told her to keep it a secret. She never expected that her father-in-law would guess her plan just from her questions.

“Since she’s pregnant, we’ll have her. Fines or pay cuts, we’ll accept it. More kids will make the house more lively,” Li Chu said quickly after thinking for a moment.

That small fine meant nothing to their family; nobody cared. The most important thing was having a large and prosperous family.

Ding Qiunan was especially happy that her daughter-in-law had fulfilled her long-cherished wish. She held her hand and carefully gave her instructions, completely forgetting that her daughter-in-law was already a mother.

Li Wenxuan stared blankly as his mother told his wife about things to pay attention to during pregnancy, while Yueyue nodded excitedly in agreement, occasionally offering her own opinions.

He turned his head and glanced at the little stinky baby sitting in the doghouse playing with several dogs. He began to wonder if he was seeing things. Who was the father of this child?

"Dad, what's going on?"

"Oh, your mom is a bit excited. She's always wanted to have a younger brother or sister for you, but she couldn't get pregnant. It's been a real worry for her. Now that her daughter-in-law is pregnant with her second child, how can she not be excited?"

Don't overthink it. Just take good care of Yueyue. If Choubao can't manage, he can sleep with us tonight.

"It's fine right now, Dad. He's not sleeping in the same bed as us anymore, he's sleeping in his own bed, so it's not a problem."

By the way, the best app for reading aloud right now is Yeguo Reading (yeguoyuedu). Install the latest version.

“Go tell your aunt, so she can be happy too.”

"Okay, Dad, I'll go right now."

Li Qin will definitely be very happy to hear this news, as she is one of the people who most hopes that the Li family can have more descendants.

Li Chu turned his head and looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were still having a lively discussion. He smiled gently, did not disturb them, got up and walked to the doghouse, sat cross-legged on the ground, and played with his grandson.

"Over the mountains and across the sea, there lives a group of Smurfs."

They are cute and smart…

Whoosh, Little Stinky Baby climbed off the belly of the first-year student.

"witch……"

"Yes, the Smurfs and Gargamel."

"Grandpa, look!" Little Stinky pointed at the TV.

Li Chu wanted to slap himself. Serves you right for being so cocky. Now you'll have to coax me slowly.

...

The family now has two pregnant women, both with huge appetites. Wang Yueyue was basically the same when she was pregnant with her second child, but for some reason she became a completely different person with an insatiable appetite. Add to that Wen Hui, and the two of them are constantly craving different things, making cooking a real headache for Ding Qiunan and Li Chu every day.

Just like today...

"Dad, I want to eat roast duck this afternoon!"

Li Wenhui had already arranged lunch right after finishing breakfast.

"Okay, how about Bianyifang?"

"It's from Da Dong, isn't it?"

"Dad Chu, I want to eat roast chicken and cured beef, um... and Da Shun Zhai's sugar-coated sesame cakes."

"become"

Li Chu was used to it. Although they both told him, in the end, it was their own men who went to buy it.

These are still relatively mild, since you can buy them with money. But the other day, both of them said they wanted to eat watermelon at the same time, which was really torturous.

These days, there are no off-season fruits, which made Li Chu deeply resentful of his system. "It would be so much better if you rewarded me with these things," he thought.

But then again, even if he were given a reward, would he dare to take it out?

"Anything else? Tell me everything at once."

The same scene plays out at home almost every day, and everyone else has gotten used to it.

Shen Yi and Li Wenxuan didn't dare to say a word more. These two old ladies were not easy to please now, and if they didn't say a word right, they would be the ones to suffer.

That's all.

"Alright, it's almost time, everyone hurry up and get to work."

After the children left, the couple went back inside to change their clothes and go to work.

"Phew~ These two girls are getting more and more troublesome these days. It's a good thing their months are far apart, otherwise I wouldn't know whose postpartum period to take care of."

Ding Qiunan is now in a real bind.

"You don't need to worry about Wenhui. She'll definitely be staying with Elder Shen during her postpartum period. She'll have care from her mother-in-law and other caregivers."

Shen Jun told me that his wife had stopped teaching and was waiting for Huihui to give birth so she would have time to take care of her. He planned to have them move back home at the end of the month.

Even if she doesn't need me to take care of her during her postpartum period, she'll definitely come back to stay for a while after that, so isn't that the same thing?

By the way, what happened yesterday at the outpatient clinic when a patient's family member claimed the doctor touched his wife?

"Sigh~, our doctor was listening to that female patient with a stethoscope. I don't know if he couldn't hear clearly or what, but he asked the patient to take off her shirt so he could put the stethoscope in. The patient's family wasn't there at the time. When the family came into the examination room, they saw the doctor's hand on his wife's chest, so they started making a scene."

"What about the patient? Didn't she say anything?"

"She just cried, wouldn't that just make things more confusing?"

Li Chu felt somewhat helpless. He was present when the disturbance started in the outpatient hall yesterday, and he immediately took the patient and their family to the small conference room on the first floor.

But with so many people in the hall, all sorts of rumors will surely spread like wildfire.

"How was it finally resolved?"

"I don't know. After I took the person to the small conference room, I handed him over to Old Ma from the medical department."

This is something Li Chu pays special attention to: when treating female patients, either a family member must be present, or there must be a female nurse in the examination room; otherwise, it's really hard to explain if something happens.

Ideally, family members should be present. If there are any examinations that require undressing, it's easy to cause misunderstandings. First, ask the family members for their opinion. If that doesn't work, find a female doctor to come over.

"How many more days until your logistics emergency drills in the suburbs?"

"It's still a long way off, at least another two weeks. I'm not going over today; I still have some things to take care of in the yard. I'm all packed up, let's go."

Since becoming the logistics minister, Ding Qiunan has been busy all day long. The days of going to work and then sneaking out to go shopping are gone forever, and she hardly has any time left to even get together with her older sisters and aunties to gossip.

However, it seems that it also brought out her strong-woman side, making the logistics department very well organized and satisfying the leaders.
