After making a fuss in the yard for a while, Ding Qiunan finally got off her husband.
Li Chu called the two children to the living room and explained to them some things they needed to pay attention to during military training.
Wenhui and Wenxuan have been staying with Uncle Wang for a while. When they have nothing to do, they train with the guards and have fired countless shots.
They had no resistance to military training; on the contrary, they were somewhat looking forward to it.
Next, Li Chu tested the two children on their progress in learning basic TCM knowledge over the past month.
The result surprised him; he then realized that his children seemed to have inherited his photographic memory.
They don't really have photographic memories, but if they read a book carefully twice, they can basically remember it.
This is a great skill; it can give them a significant advantage over others in their future studies.
It would be much easier for them, but how far they can go in the end depends on their own efforts.
Ding Qiunan was incredibly envious. If she had that ability, she wouldn't have only gone to a vocational school.
However, there are always trade-offs. If she had gone to high school and then university, she definitely wouldn't have married Li Chu, and whether she would still have the happy life she has now is unknown.
The family of four was chatting in the living room when the doorbell rang.
It's almost nine o'clock, why would anyone still come?
Wenxuan had already run out to open the door on his own initiative.
"Sister, brother-in-law, Nana's stomach is hurting terribly, it seems like she's about to give birth."
Before I even saw anyone, I heard Ding Jianguo shouting.
Upon hearing this, Li Chu and Ding Qiunan both stood up.
Chen Na's due date is in the next few days, and her family has already prepared everything, just waiting to go to the hospital.
Ding's mother originally thought that she could give birth at home, and although Chen Na was unwilling, she couldn't go against her mother-in-law.
In the end, Li Chu mentioned it to his mother-in-law and persuaded her to agree to let her daughter-in-law give birth in the hospital.
Li Chu deeply abhorred the practice of giving birth at home, because it could easily lead to the death of both mother and child.
Giving birth in a hospital is almost free now, so I don't know what those who insist on giving birth at home are thinking.
Ding Jianguo rushed in, panting, his face full of tension.
Li Chu smiled and comforted his brother-in-law: "It's okay, Jianguo, relax. Everything was fine during the previous check-up. Now go and get the things you prepared, then help Nana out. I'll go get the car."
Seeing his brother-in-law's calm and composed demeanor, Ding Jianguo seemed to have found his pillar of support and gradually calmed down.
"Good brother-in-law, I'll go help Nana right now."
"Hmm, don't rush, don't panic, take your time!"
After saying that, Li Chu turned to his daughter and said, "Wenhui, go get your chocolate and prepare some for your aunt to replenish her energy."
"Okay, Dad!"
"Qiu Nan, I'll take Jianguo, Nana, and Mom over there first. You stew a chicken and bring it over later."
After settling things at home, Li Chu took his car keys and went out.
He's been driving the car back every day for the past two days, just in case something happens at night.
At the entrance of the delivery room at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Ding Jianguo paced back and forth, occasionally peeking through the crack in the door.
"Jianguo, come sit here, I'm feeling really dizzy!" Ding's father couldn't stand it anymore.
"Dad, I'm worried! It's been an hour since they went in, and there's still no sound!"
After speaking, Ding Jianguo looked at his brother-in-law next to him, hoping that he could give him a reason to put his mind at ease.
Li Chu didn't know what to say. The previous checkups were all normal, but childbirth is something that can't be explained by common sense.
Some women give birth from morning till night, but others, like Ding Qiunan, are in the delivery room for less than an hour before coming out, and she even gave birth to twins.

There are still big differences between people, but Li Chu just took Chen Na's pulse, so there shouldn't be any special situations.
"Sit down, Jianguo. There's no point in you pacing around. This is Nana's first pregnancy, so it will definitely take longer. Just wait patiently."
Unwilling to give up, Ding Jianguo listened to Li Chu's words and peeked through the crack in the door again before walking over and sitting down on the stool.
Another half hour passed, and footsteps came from the other side of the corridor.
Ding Qiunan had already stewed the chicken at home and brought it over in a small insulated container.
Wenhui and Wenxuan followed behind, with Maoqiu trailing behind them.
"Why did you bring the dog back?" Li Chu stood up and walked over.
"There was no other way. They insisted on coming with us when we came out. I guess they're worried about our safety at night. They won't let us go out unless we bring one of them. I had no choice but to bring them. Hasn't Nana come out yet?"
"No!"
Ding Qiunan handed the thermos to her husband, then spoke a few words to her parents and comforted her younger brother.
"Li Chu, shall I go in and take a look?"
"Okay, let me know as soon as you have any news. I think Mom and Dad are getting a little anxious."
After entering the delivery room, Ding Qiunan came out in just a few minutes, and her parents and Jianguo couldn't wait to surround her.
"Mom and Dad, Jianguo, don't rush, it's not time yet. We shouldn't have rushed in earlier, we should have let her walk around outside a bit more."
"It's all because of your brother. I told him not to rush, but as soon as he saw Nana crying in pain, he insisted on letting her in. He's been making us wait so anxiously." Ding's mother rolled her eyes at her son.
"I...I was just thinking it was time because Nana was in so much pain." Ding Jianguo scratched his head awkwardly.
"Alright, Mom, you and Dad should go back to the ward and wait. We don't know how late it will be."
The elderly couple looked exhausted, and Ding Qiunan felt a pang of sympathy for them.
It's almost 11 o'clock; I would have been asleep long ago.
Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Ding agreed to their daughter's suggestion and went back to their ward.
Thanks to Li Chu's influence, the ward arranged for them was empty, allowing the elderly couple to rest in bed.
Li Chu glanced at the furry dog sitting at his feet, thought for a moment, and said, "Never mind, I'll take the dog back first, so as not to scare it."
This is at night; if it were daytime, we wouldn't even have been able to get through the hospital gates.
There are other patients in these wards; it would be terrible if we scared someone.
After all, not everyone likes dogs.
"Are you two coming back with me?"
Li Chu turned to look at the two children and asked.
Unsurprisingly, both children refused; they were still waiting to see the baby.
As a result, they waited until after 2 a.m., and only after a loud cry did the people outside finally feel relieved.
