"Doctor Zhang, you are sure that you are pregnant, right?"
Chen Wang forced himself to calm his overly excited emotions and confirmed again.
It’s not his fault that he has too many things to do, the main thing is that this means a lot to him.
Doctor Zhang smiled and nodded, "Trust my expertise, but if you're still worried, I can also use Western medicine to test your wife."
"No, no, Dr. Zhang, thank you."
Chen Wang thanked him happily.
"What's there to thank for?"
"Well...I don't know how much I should give."
"No, take it back now. Why would you charge so much for taking a pulse?"
Doctor Zhang waved his hand with a serious expression.
"Okay, then next time I go into the mountains and catch some good prey, I'll send some to you and sister-in-law."
Chen Wang took his hand out of his pocket and said with a smile.
"You really don't have to be so polite. Your father and I are old friends. In the past, your father sold me many of the herbs he collected in the mountains. I benefited a lot from him."
Doctor Zhang said with a smile.
"Yeah?"
Chen Wang looked surprised. He really didn't know about this.
Doctor Zhang nodded and sighed, "What a pity, your father is such a good person."
"Uncle, if you need any medicinal herbs in the future, you can tell me and I will go to the mountains to find them for you."
Chen Wang simply changed the name.
"good!"
Doctor Zhang nodded with a smile on his face.
"Uncle, aunt, let's go back first."
Chen Wang stood up and said goodbye.
Lin Xiuqin also stood up.
"Go, take good care of your wife and let her give birth to the baby in good health. Come to me anytime if you have any problems."
Doctor Zhang also stood up and spoke.
"OK!"
"Awang, there is an old man named Lu in the next village who often goes fishing. You can buy some crucian carp and make soup for your wife."
He Guifen gave him a suggestion.
Chen Wang's face lit up, and he nodded gratefully, "I'll go there in a minute, auntie, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? Take your wife back home quickly and be careful not to catch a cold."
He Guifen waved with a smile.
"Okay, let's go then."
After saying that, Chen Wang took his wife's hand and left.
When he reached the door, he opened the umbrella, hugged his wife and walked into the rain.
Inside the house, Dr. Zhang and his wife watched them leave. One sat back to continue drinking tea, while the other continued knitting a sweater.
Doctor Zhang turned his head and glanced at his wife who was sitting beside the bed, and said with a gentle smile, "Are you overthinking it again?"
He Guifen looked up at her husband, shook her head and said, "I'm already past the age of sentimentality."
"That's good."
"It's just... seeing that girl so happy, I can't help but think, if God can let me give you a child, I would be willing to not be able to speak for the rest of my life."
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Doctor Zhang complained to his wife.
He Guifen smiled and said nothing more. She lowered her eyes and skillfully knitted a sweater for him.
Over the years, she has always felt guilty towards her husband.
You know, when Dr. Zhang was young, there was no shortage of women who liked him.
However, Dr. Zhang chose a widow like her, giving her a second life and a happy and stable life. However, due to physical reasons, she was unable to give birth to a child for her husband.
Her inability to bear children and the death of her ex-husband were the reasons why she was beaten and scolded by her mother-in-law.
"It's important to continue the family line, but for me, life is good now, really."
Doctor Zhang took a sip of tea, his tone calm but gentle.
He Guifen's knitting movements trembled slightly, and she said in a hoarse voice: "If there is a next life, I hope to meet you earlier, and I hope to have children for you."
"Silly woman."
…
…
After returning home, I told the little girl the good news as soon as possible.
The little girl danced and cheered for joy, causing the dog and the monkey to jump up and down as well, although they had no idea what was happening.
Lin Xiuqin was also in a good mood. She returned to her room with a smile on her face, sat down beside the bed, took the needle and thread and started knitting a sweater.
"Wife, I'm going to the next village to buy you some crucian carp. Just stay at home and don't go out to get blown by the wind!"
Chen Wang gave his wife some instructions.
Lin Xiuqin raised her eyes to look at him, and nodded towards the outside, indicating that it was raining heavily, and asked him not to go yet.
"It's okay. You have to buy an umbrella. The weather is getting cold. Drinking some fish soup will help you stay healthy."
Having said that, Chen Wang looked at the little girl again.
"Xiaoyu, stay at home with your sister-in-law!"
"I know, don't worry, I'll take care of my sister-in-law and the baby!"
The little girl pounded her chest as if she had accepted a glorious and arduous task.
Chen Wang smiled with relief, grabbed a handful of hard candies from the bag on the table and stuffed them into his pocket, then turned around and left the room, opening his umbrella and went out.
Humming Jay Chou's classic song "Listen to Mom", Chen Wang walked briskly towards the next village.
Jay Chou, who is probably still a three-year-old kid now, would never have imagined that his hit song of more than 20 years later would have already appeared in this world.
On rainy days, most villagers stay at home.
A woman was sitting at the door weaving a web. When she saw Chen Wang walking hurriedly with an umbrella, she greeted him.
"Awang, where are we going?"
"Go to the next village to buy fish."
"Buy fish?"
"Well, my wife is pregnant. I'm going to buy some crucian carp to make soup for her."
