Because of the child's overnutrition, Xu Miaomiao's good days are over.
When she returned home in the evening, there was no more delicious food. The only thing waiting for her on the table was a bowl of vegetable and chicken porridge.
She really had no interest in this bland dinner, but she thought she had to endure it for the sake of her children.
Who knew that this was not the end? After finishing her meal, just as she was about to go to rest as usual, she was stopped by Grandma Xu.
"Miaomiao, you can't just rest after eating in the future. You have to go for an hour's walk!"
Xu Miaomiao felt like this was a bolt from the blue! One hour! It was so hot outside now. If she walked outside for an hour, she would die!
She looked at her grandfather pitifully, wanting him to help plead for mercy. Her grandfather opened his mouth with some heartache, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by her grandmother.
"I took her to the hospital today, and the doctor said her fetus is too large and she needs to control her diet and exercise more."
"If you want her to suffer more during childbirth, then indulge her."
When Grandma Xu said this, her face was expressionless and very serious. Grandpa changed his side immediately after hearing this.
"You have to listen to the doctor. I'm going for a walk, so come with me!"
Xu Miaomiao sighed and followed her grandfather out the door.
The sun sets later now, so they can still see the afterglow of the sunset after dinner.
Grandpa Xu walked in front with his hands behind his back and his back straight, while Xu Miaomiao followed slowly behind, holding her belly.
Before Grandpa Xu retired, he was the second-in-command of the Beijing Military Region, and everyone in the compound knew him.
When people see him out for a walk, they all say hello to him.
"Mr. Xu, are you going out for a walk?"
Grandpa Xu nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, take my granddaughter out for a walk."
"You are so lucky! You will soon have another great-grandson!"
"Mr. Xu, have you eaten?"
Grandpa Xu nodded with a smile, "Ah, yes, yes, I'll take my granddaughter out for a walk."
"Mr. Xu, why don't you go to the park to play chess today?"
Grandpa Xu nodded with a smile, "Ah, yes, yes, I'm taking my granddaughter out for a walk."
Xu Miaomiao was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to die. Along the way, no matter what topic people started with, her grandfather would always lead the conversation to his pregnant granddaughter.
Xu Miaomiao could actually understand him. After all, other people have many children and grandchildren, but his son and his family work in other places and can't come back once a year.
Now that I have a granddaughter who often comes over, and I’m going to have a great-grandson too, how can I not show off?
Xu Miaomiao would have been happier if she wasn't the one being dragged out to show off.
So Xu Miaomiao made a decisive decision to take a bus back to the army early tomorrow morning and not give her grandfather another chance to make her die.
When Grandpa Xu heard that Xu Miaomiao was going back today, he felt a little disappointed. Why was he going back so suddenly?
He had just shown off to the people in the compound yesterday, and today he had planned to take Xu Miaomiao for a stroll in the park where he played chess.
But Xu Miaomiao not only went back by herself, she also brought Chen Chen a letter from her grandmother.
The letter explained Xu Miaomiao's current situation and hoped that Chen Chen would supervise her exercise if he had time.
This letter completely blocked her way to being lazy. Chen Chen was more attentive than her grandfather and took her out every night after dinner.
Ever since Xu Miaomiao became pregnant, Chen Chen stopped letting her cook. He brought back meals for both of them from the cafeteria.
Only when Xu Miaomiao is craving for something will she occasionally cook for herself to satisfy her hunger.
After finishing dinner, Chen Chen took the lunch box and prepared to wash up. He turned back and gave instructions as he walked towards the kitchen.
"Miaomiao, I'm going to wash the lunch box first. Can you change your clothes? Let's go out for a walk later."
Xu Miaomiao was originally quite happy because she had eaten her favorite dishes tonight, but when she heard this, she sat there slumped like a doll that had lost its soul.
Chen Chen poked his head out of the kitchen and saw her sitting lazily, and couldn't help but urge her.
"Go change your clothes quickly! Don't be lazy! If you do, I'll complain to you next time I see you, grandpa and grandma!"
Xu Miaomiao had no choice but to do it reluctantly and went to the bedroom to change clothes, complaining softly, "Zhou Paopi, a snitch!"
Chen Chen heard her complaining quietly in the kitchen. He couldn't help but laugh, thinking that she was even cuter after her pregnancy.
Every night Chen Chen held her hand and walked around their large yard, which was almost two thousand meters long.
Xu Miaomiao's belly was a little big, so it was inconvenient for her to move. She walked a little unsteadily like a little penguin.
Chen Chen held her hand and walked slowly with her, stopping to rest when she was tired.
When the two of them walked to the tube-shaped building, they happened to see them enjoying the cool air downstairs.
Liu Xiangrong smiled and joked, "I knew it was you two just by looking at the two figures from a distance."
Zhang Hua also agreed, "Yes, apart from Chen Chen, who else in our compound can be found such a caring husband, taking walks with me every day."
These words struck a chord with the sisters-in-law who had already given birth, and they couldn't help but complain.
"Who says it's not true? My wife, let alone taking a walk with me, just falls asleep on the bed when she comes home without even saying a word!"
"That's right, my son, I still had to wash his clothes and cook for him when I was about to give birth."
"I passed by that day and saw Captain Chen washing his clothes at home!"
Chen Chen didn't show it on his face, but responded, "Miaomiao is still young, and her pregnancy is so difficult. There's not much I can do."
Xu Miaomiao, despite their envious looks, happily took Chen Chen for another walk.
It was around eight o'clock when I took a walk and went home.
Chen Chen first pulled her to sit on the bed, then turned around and left.
After a while, he came in with a basin of warm water, placed it on the ground, took off her shoes, and put her feet in the basin.
Xu Miaomiao's two white and tender little feet were stepping in the water. Chen Chen let her soak for a while before starting to wash her feet.
By the time he poured some water and washed up, Xu Miaomiao was already lying on the bed, drowsy.
She heard Chen Chen coming in and forced herself to open her eyes.
Chen Chen touched her head and told her, "Go to sleep if you're tired. No need to wait for me."
After saying that, he didn't lie down on the bed. Instead, he sat at the end of the bed, put her legs on his knees, and massaged them slowly.
Xu Miaomiao asked dazedly, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Chen Chen lowered his head and massaged seriously, "I just washed your feet and found that your legs are a little swollen. Let me massage you, you can go to sleep."
Xu Miaomiao wanted to tell him not to worry about it and just get some sleep. He was tired after a whole day and she wanted him to rest early, but his eyelids were unable to hold back and had already closed.
Chen Chen didn't know how long he pressed, but when he felt her tense calves relax, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, carefully lay down beside her, and fell asleep with his arms around her.
