Shen Yanming's question infuriated Old Master Lin, who slapped him on the head. "Don't you even wish your wife well?"
Shen Yanming also felt wronged, "Didn't you say that my wife's period was delayed by half a month?"
Logically speaking, this is quite normal. It could be due to catching a cold or stress, but your tone makes it sound like something extremely serious has happened.
Grandpa Lin poked Shen Yanming's forehead with his finger, "You brat, your wife is pregnant, isn't that a huge deal? What are you thinking?"
"Huh? Pregnant?" Shen Yanming, who was in hell one second, was in heaven the next. "You're not kidding me, are you?"
Grandpa Lin was almost laughing in anger. "You think I'm kidding you? You think I can conjure up a baby for you in eight months?"
"So it's true? I'm going to be a dad!" Shen Yanming looked at Grandpa Lin, then at Bi Qiaoan, and seeing that they were both smiling at him, he finally confirmed the news was true.
Shen Yanming exclaimed in surprise, then hugged Bi Qiaoan and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"Honey, we're having a baby! I'm going to be a dad, and you're going to be a mom!" Shen Yanming smiled in a particularly silly way, looking rather goofy.
Bi Qiaoan smiled and nodded, "Yes, we're going to be mom and dad."
Actually, she was already mentally prepared when Shen Yanming and Grandpa Lin were chatting.
After all, they had been eating high-quality food and water in the space all this time, and they had no pressure to eat and play every day, so the possibility of them having health problems was not high.
Moreover, she actually had a slight pregnancy reaction, but it was so mild that she ignored it. If Grandpa Lin hadn't pointed it out directly, she might have thought it was caused by other reasons.
Seeing the two young people being so affectionate, Grandpa Lin found it really hard to watch, so he interrupted, "Alright, we can talk about it when we get back. Come here, I'll tell you about some things to be careful about."
Shen Yanming was in a good mood and said without thinking, "I understand. I did a lot of research during my pregnancy preparation and I remember it all."
"Then tell me?"
Shen Yanming nodded and recounted all the pregnancy knowledge he knew.
Grandpa Lin listened and nodded, surprised that the young man knew so much. However, he still corrected and added some points.
After Old Master Lin finished speaking, Shen Yanming's initial enthusiasm subsided a bit, and once his mind cleared, he remembered some things.
"Grandpa, are my wife and son alright? My wife was working in the fields a while ago!" Shen Yanming asked anxiously, grabbing Grandpa Lin's arm.
"Look at you, making your wife do heavy work when she's pregnant. What's the use of a husband like you?" Old Master Lin said with a hint of disappointment.
Bi Qiaoan quickly explained, "No, I didn't do any heavy work, just planted some seeds or something."
"That won't do either. How can you feel comfortable bending over for hours?"
"No, there were several grown men there. I was basically just a handyman and didn't do anything."
Shen Yanming was now thankful that Zhang Heping and Ji Kangyong had helped during the autumn planting season; otherwise, without their knowledge, it was uncertain whether the child could have been saved.
After hearing this, Grandpa Lin nodded and said, "Yes, leave any work to them and you can focus on your pregnancy."
"Grandpa, you still haven't said whether you're alright or not."
"No, if there was something wrong, would I not tell you?" Old Master Lin slapped Shen Yanming on the head again in anger. "You're so stupid! Where did your shrewdness go?"
"Wait a minute, I didn't say anything, how do you know it's a son?" Old Master Lin suddenly realized and asked Shen Yanming.
Shen Yanming laughed upon hearing this, "It really is a son! That's wonderful!"
"You still prefer boys to girls?"
"No, no, no, it's just that the post-apocalyptic environment is bad. The girl is suffering too much, but the son is tough."
Hearing this, Old Master Lin sighed, "Sons and daughters are the same, they are all the apple of their parents' eyes. Which parent wouldn't feel heartache for their child being born and raised in this kind of environment?"
"Don't worry, no matter what, life goes on. Maybe one day our circumstances will return to normal," Bi Qiaoan comforted her.
"Well, I hope so!"
The two stayed with Grandpa Lin for a while before returning home. Once home, Bi Qiaoan truly experienced what meticulous care meant.
"Honey, sit down, I'll cook for you!"
"Wife, wait here, I'll give you a bath!"
"Wife, where are you going? I'll carry you!"
Bi Qiaoan could no longer bear it. "Honey, I'm only a month and a half pregnant. I'm healthy and agile. What could possibly happen to me at home?"
You've read so many books, don't you know that appropriate exercise is also necessary during pregnancy?
"I just can't help worrying."
"Okay, from now on, forget about my pregnancy completely and treat me like a normal person."
"How could that be? An ordinary person can do naughty things with me at night, but could you?"
"Shen Yanming, you! I'll beat you to death, you old scoundrel!"
"Okay, okay, honey, don't be angry anymore. I just wanted you to remember that you're pregnant now and need your man's careful care."
Okay then, I'll try my best to restrain myself in the future, is that alright?
"You said it yourself. If you can't do it, see how I punish you."
Shen Yanming touched his nose. "By the way, wife, have you eaten the Wisdom-Enhancing Fruit?"
"Should we eat him now? He's still just a lump of flesh; he hasn't developed a brain or limbs yet."
Shen Yanming thought for a moment about the biology he had learned back then, "That seems to be the case. Let's wait until four or five months before giving it to him."
Bi Qiaoan nodded, and then the two of them went to prepare for resuming work.
Actually, there's not much to prepare, but since they haven't seen everyone for several months, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan decided to bring some gifts for everyone.
Monday finally arrived, and Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan got up early, both of them excited because they had to go to work.
When the two of them came down to the underground parking garage with their bags, Bi Qiaoan was shivered by the sudden cold air and then sneezed uncontrollably.
Shen Yanming frowned. "Why is it so cold all of a sudden? Is it because you feel cold in the garage?"
"It must be because of the cold weather. The temperature was quite high when I visited Grandpa Lin at the hospital a few days ago," Bi Qiaoan said.
Shen Yanming took out his phone to check the weather forecast and was surprised to find that the temperature was dropping to only around thirteen degrees Celsius today.
"Wait in the car for a bit, I'll go get you a coat." With that, Shen Yanming returned home.
