Chapter 385 Difficulty
After finishing the call, Zhou Mingli hurried back.
He was a little panicked.
Chun'e has been in a bad mood these past two days. He took her to the hospital yesterday morning and accompanied her to have a check-up. It was confirmed that she was pregnant and had been pregnant for more than 40 days.
Then I came back in the afternoon and started vomiting. I vomited whatever I ate, even if I didn't eat. I vomited bile.
He asked the family of the political commissar next door, and they said that this was normal and that it was like this in the first few months, some more serious and some slightly better.
Chun'e's case is relatively serious, and most of them will recover on their own after three months.
When Zhou Mingli heard this, his heart ached.
So he hurriedly called Xinxi and the capital. He had no elders to rely on, and he didn't know who to ask. He couldn't ask anyone to come over and take care of his lover for a while, so he could only run around like a headless fly.
However, something like pregnancy should be told to everyone in the family, and he also told Mr. Zhou.
Lu Chun'e was in low spirits and was lying on the sofa reading a book.
When he entered the room, she put down the book in her hand and stood up.
Zhou Mingli had just stood up when he came to her in two or three steps and held her arm: "Why did you get up? Sit down quickly."
Lu Chun'e smiled and said, "It's okay, it's not made of paper. Nausea is not a big problem." She was very uncomfortable and her reaction was a bit exaggerated. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect. She had felt sleepy and uneasy before, and had no appetite. After she confirmed that she was pregnant, something suddenly felt wrong.
At lunch at the hospital, she felt nauseous after just two bites, unable to breathe, and was restless in her office. Fortunately, their department hadn't seen many patients yesterday, so she made it through the afternoon. As soon as she walked in and smelled the cooking fumes, she started vomiting. She vomited so hard she felt like she was vomiting bile.
Then it was like some incredible new feature had been unlocked, and it was out of control.
She vomited after eating, smelling anything, and even rinsing her mouth in the morning. She vomited so much that there was nothing left in her stomach and her legs and feet were weak.
Fortunately, it's the weekend today and she doesn't have to go to work.
"Is this my sister-in-law's call?"
Zhou Mingli said "hmm" and said, "Do you want to eat something now? I'll go cook something for you."
"Cook some. I feel much better now, but it still needs to be light. I'm afraid it will be wasted if I eat it later."
"Well, lie down, cover yourself with the blanket and take a nap. I'll be fine soon."
As he said that, he tucked the blanket in for her and went out to the kitchen.
This child should have been conceived during the two days before he left for this mission. He was away for a month, and soon after he came back, he became a father.
I am happy, but I feel particularly sad at the same time.
What he wanted most in his life was a home, someone to accompany him, and not to be alone. Chun'e gave him all of these.
But he didn't give Chun'e much.
Chun'e got married to him when she was a sophomore in college, and it's been three years now, but they still haven't had a wedding. They got together during their sophomore internship, but he went on a mission after just a few days, and when Chun'e came back, school had already started, so she returned to the capital.
During the holidays, Chun'e did not stay in the capital to accompany her family, nor did she return to Xinxi. Instead, she came to the military region to accompany him.
After my junior year, I started my formal internship and joined the army, so we were together less and less.
I ride my bike to and from get off work by myself and keep my house tidy.
Now she was pregnant, with their child, but he could do nothing but watch her suffer. What's more, he might not be able to watch her all the time, as he would leave at any time as long as there was a mission.
Although I said above that I will try my best to take care of him this year, if the time comes when he really needs to go out, he will definitely not be able to stay at home.
He couldn't even guarantee that he could accompany Chun'e into the delivery room and wait for the baby to be born in person.
He kneaded the dough skillfully. Cooking for one person is both difficult and easy. In a short while, the noodles were rolled out and a bowl of sour soup noodles was ready.
When it was brought to the living room, Lu Chun'e had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
Zhou Mingli put the bowl on the coffee table, sat over and kissed her: "Chun'e, Chun'e! Get up and eat before going to sleep." There has been no food in her stomach since yesterday. How could anyone bear this?
Lu Chun'e opened her eyes and was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses: "So soon?"
Then he sniffed gently and said, "What a nice smell!"
Zhou Mingli grinned. "As long as it smelled good, I wouldn't feel nauseous." He was right. They say pregnant women have strange appetites; they prefer sour and spicy food. He didn't dare add too much spice, but he added vinegar to the noodles, so the soup was slightly sour.
He picked up the bowl and fed her: "It smells good, eat well."
"I can do it myself. Zhou Mingli, please don't do this. It makes me feel like I have some serious illness."
Lu Chun'e took the bowl and sucked a noodle into her mouth.
Zhou Mingli sat beside her and watched her, afraid that she would vomit again if she touched the food.
Lu Chun'e felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, but she didn't say anything. She ate the whole bowl of noodles and even drank the soup.
The food was really good, and my stomach felt warm. But the comfort didn't last long, and that feeling came back again.
Lu Chun'e curled up on the sofa and waited for Zhou Mingli to come in before saying, "Actually, it's really okay. It's definitely uncomfortable, but it's only two months. You'll be fine once you get through it. All women have to go through this. Marriage, family, children."
Zhou Mingli sighed and hugged her: "I know, but I'm still worried. I can't be at home every day and take care of you. You're all alone——"
"What's wrong with me being alone? I have hands and feet. I've been through these past two years, so it doesn't make sense that I can't do it now. Just do what you need to do, don't feel any psychological burden."
As soon as he finished speaking, his brows knitted together, he covered his mouth and ran out. Zhou Mingli got up quickly and followed him.
I hadn't even digested the food I had just eaten when I returned the same way.
Zhou Mingli held the water in one hand and patted her back with the other.
Lu Chun'e pinched her nose and tried several times to clear it but it still wouldn't work.
How comfortable I felt eating just now, how uncomfortable I feel now.
Lu Chun'e thought she was strong enough, but now she couldn't help wanting to cry. It was really too hard.
It's only been a few days, and there's still at least another month of days like this to go by. Just thinking about it makes her feel like she's going crazy.
"Think about it, my aunt gave birth to five children, and my mother gave birth to three of us. How sad it must have been! There was nothing to eat or drink, and we had to work in the fields even when we were about to give birth. I don't know how we managed to get through those days."
Zhou Mingli wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, "Let's not have so many children, just this one. I'll get a sterilization after the baby is born, and I won't let you suffer this kind of torture in the future."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lu Chun'e burst into laughter.
Zhou Mingli didn't continue, and talked about something else: "If it doesn't work out, I'll temporarily stop working at the hospital, okay? I'm applying to my superiors and will try my best to stay here for training."
"No, don't make it this special. I can handle it. I'll put some malted milk in the office later. I can use it when I'm hungry. I'm not that squeamish."
Zhou Mingli sighed: "Even if you don't stop now, you have to stop when the due date arrives. Chun'e, I don't want to see you so hard. I'm not at home every other day, and you have to take care of yourself. It's already very hard, and now there's another baby in your belly that's very tiring." They are not short of money, but what they lack is companionship and companionship.
Lu Chun'e leaned over and smiled, "It's okay. Just do what you need to do. Don't let me delay your work. I'll definitely do my job if I can do it now. If it becomes inconvenient later in the month, I'll report it and resign first. I won't be stubborn."
She understood Zhou Mingli's concerns. With no elders to rely on, they had to rely on themselves for everything. It had been fine before; they were young, each with their own jobs, doing their jobs well, without having to worry about making a living like many others. But now it was different. With a child, not only did they have to handle the pregnancy and birth, but they also had to take care of the confinement and subsequent childcare themselves.
She doesn't have to work.
Work is important, but family is important too.
She was very thoughtful, so Zhou Mingli didn't insist any more. Instead, he said to her, "I'll be transferred back in a year at most. Then we can move back to Tonghua Lane. You can be closer to your elder brother Donglin and the others."
Lu Chun'e's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Really?"
"Um!"
After resting at home for a day, Lu Chun'e felt a little uncomfortable when going to work again. It was very difficult for her to get up in the morning. She felt tired when she got to the office. She felt better only after washing her face with cold water.
It's usually quite busy during the shift, and it stays busy until Monday afternoon.
It wasn't until Tuesday afternoon that she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had just dozed off at her desk when she heard someone call out, "Doctor Lu, someone's looking for you."
Lu Chun'e raised her head, her eyes bloodshot and dizzy. It took her a long time to recover: "Who is it?"
"You said it's your family!"
?
Lu Chun'e came out of the office and saw Lu Donglin standing at the end of the corridor from a distance.
Twenty-three-year-old Lu Donglin no longer has the shadow of the ruffian he used to be when he was in Lujiazui.
He was slightly taller than Lu Donglin, with a handsome and youthful face full of vitality. His almond-shaped eyes were smiling, and when he looked at Lu Chun'e, they were filled with spots of light.
"sister!"
Lu Chun'e was really surprised: "Why are you here?"
Lu Donglin's hands were full: "My sister-in-law was worried after receiving a call from my brother-in-law, so she said she had to come over to see you. You know, she's not that free to go wherever she wants, so I came."
Lu Chun'e stretched out her hand: "Take off your bag and put it over here. I need to wait for a while. You take a rest. When I get off work, we can go back together."
"Don't move, I'll do it myself. Is it okay to leave it here? Will it get in the way?"
"No, it's nothing. Why did you bring so many things? How long can you stay here?"
Lu Donglin didn't answer her, but smiled and said, "These are all prepared by your sister-in-law. If I couldn't take them, she would have emptied the house."
