After arriving at the hospital, He Runqing walked cautiously, a little worried about the slippery ground.
Chen Yifei stood by, supporting his wife as they went for the checkup.
These days, not many people get checked out. Most of them give birth in the fields or while doing farm work, like Sister Chen Shuang, who was in so much pain that she didn't have time to go to the hospital.
Not to mention prenatal checkups.
If you get pregnant, you just give birth; there's no concept of prenatal checkups.
Most of the people coming now are young girls who work in factories, accompanied by their parents.
Seeing Chen Yifei accompany He Runqing like this, even pouring her water with concern, comforting her emotions, and occasionally joking with her.
The women who came for prenatal checkups nearby were somewhat envious.
They either came alone or with their mothers.
"Comrade, is this your husband?"
"Is your husband willing to come to the gynecology clinic with you for your check-up?"
“Yes.” He Runqing nodded.
Chen Yifei nodded and said, "Hello."
"Oh my! Comrade, you two have such a good relationship."
"What's wrong with the baby in your belly? It needs to be checked. What happened?"
He Runqing was a little confused: "I don't feel uncomfortable. It's just that my husband said I should have regular check-ups to see if I'm healthy and if the baby is healthy."
After saying that, the people around them became even more envious.
I have to say, this kind of husband is really great.
It wouldn't have been a problem if I had come by myself.
But seeing that other women are accompanied by their husbands and can still think about these things.
One of the women sighed and said aggrievedly, "I came here because I felt unwell in my stomach. My mother-in-law wants me to have a son, and she even gave me some Chinese medicine to drink, which I found a bit strange. So I came here."
"I came here secretly too. My stomach hurts, and I started bleeding this morning."
"If this pregnancy doesn't result in a son, I'll have to have my sixth." She looked visibly tired as she said this. "I'm too tired to have any more children, but what can I do? I need to carry on the family line."
Hearing these words, He Runqing panicked.
She held Chen Yifei's hand.
Hearing that everyone has all sorts of things going on during pregnancy, and that she herself hasn't had any symptoms, could it be that she's just being careless and hasn't noticed?
Seeing her nervousness, Chen Yifei squeezed her hand and said, "It's okay. I'm here."
"It'll be alright. Let's go see a doctor to see if there's anything that needs to be adjusted."
"Um."
After the check-up, it was already noon. He Runqing had been quite sleepy since becoming pregnant.
I have to wait another hour for the results.
He fell asleep leaning against Chen Yifei.
At the doctor's door, Chen Yifei took off his coat and covered his wife with it.
Just then, the doctor came out and looked at them, saying, "Oh, you've arrived."
"Why are you so good to your wife?"
"Shh." Chen Yifei was afraid of waking her. He knew He Runqing was anxious and had finally fallen asleep. Now he was going in to talk to the doctor.
He was good at comforting He Runqing, but when it came to his own situation, he was also worried.
"Doctor, are my wife and child alright?"
He was terribly flustered when he said these words.
The doctor found it somewhat amusing: "I rarely see such a responsible father like you. So worried about your child and wife. I remember you from last time. This checkup is also a good idea. You should be coming for checkups every now and then. Look, this time the indicators are a bit off."
When the doctor said that, Chen Yifei's heart jumped into his throat.
"How so?"
"It's not a big deal. It's just that your wife has gained a little weight. When you get back, tell her to eat less and be careful with the amount of oil in her cooking."
"Avoid those particularly greasy foods. Right now, controlling your weight is the best thing you can do."
Because He Runqing gave birth to twins, if she is overweight, natural childbirth will compress the fetuses and cause various other problems.
It will be difficult to recover after giving birth, and it's also quite dangerous.
After hearing these words, Chen Yifei nodded: "Okay, okay, I understand."
"How much food should a doctor eat? My wife used to eat two bowls, so should she only eat a quarter of a bowl from now on?"
"And what about the vegetables? How much oil can I use? Do we have to avoid using lard? Can we still eat fatty meat?"
He took out a small notebook, which was filled with records about He Runqing.
And then there are dietary habits.
The doctor noticed that Chen Yifei was really serious, and coincidentally, there wasn't much going on at the hospital.
"You can just switch to mixed rice or just eat corn rice. Also, you don't need to eat so much meat. Do you often make any nourishing soups at home? Don't eat anything too oily."
"As for rice, one bowl is enough."
Chen Yifei nodded, listening to each and every word.
Then all you need to do is implement it on your wife.
"I'll be going now, thank you doctor."
"You're welcome. Pregnant women experience mood swings and are often quite unstable. As their family members, you should show them more care and take good care of them."
Doctors also like to see young couples supporting each other; these days, so many people have unhealthy ways of having children.
The family has a bunch of kids, many of whom weren't born into love.
It's good that you were born, but in the southwest, how difficult is it to leave the mountains?
Thinking of all this, he sighed.
I wonder when families will start having two children, or one...
After Chen Yifei came out, He Runqing stood anxiously at the door.
"How is it, Chen Yifei!"
"Is something wrong with me?" she asked, her voice trembling with tears.
"It's alright, it's alright," Chen Yifei quickly reassured her, afraid that his wife was overthinking things.
"You've just gained a little weight."
Chen Yifei explained in detail.
Upon hearing this, He Runqing slapped him hard: "You think I'm fat! Chen Yifei, you're a real jerk. You're already starting to dislike me like this."
"You say you don't mind anything about me, but actually, hmph..."
"Actually, he's already started to dislike everything. Is his next step to go out and do bad things?"
Despite He Runqing's mournful tone, she was actually sobbing uncontrollably.
Chen Yifei was startled: "She's not really crying, is she?"
I quickly squatted down to look at her. I saw that He Runqing was smiling, even though she was covering her face with her hands.
Chen Yifei: "..."
"You little rascal."
"I lied to you on purpose, so what if I lied to you!"
"I don't mind that you're chubby. I love you just the way you are. You're so soft and cuddly. Your little face is so sweet and tender, and when you cry, it's like you're made of water."
"Wife, you're so fair you're practically glowing."
Chen Yifei's statement is not an exaggeration.
I have indeed gained some weight, especially around my stomach, but I've also gained weight in other areas that should have.
Anyway, Chen Yifei liked them all.
"The doctor said you ate too much, so I'll strictly control your diet from now on. You'll eat whatever I make. Also, don't eat anything made by Mom."
