Wu Minzhi's pregnancy was thanks to the prescription given by Lu Wanqing, and she remembered that.
To express her gratitude, she asked Lu Wanqing and her husband to wait outside for a while while she and Zhang Wei went to get their check-up first.
Lin Ye then helped Lu Wanqing to sit down on a long bench outside.
This is the obstetrics and gynecology department, and most of the people who come here are pregnant women.
Lu Wanqing noticed that some pregnant women came alone, while others were accompanied by their elderly relatives, and very few came with their husbands.
That's true. Most men living in the county town have to work, so they have to take time off work to accompany their husbands for medical checkups.
In this era, the spirit of dedication to the collective is stronger than dedication to one's own family.
Lu Wanqing saw Lin Ye's strong and powerful arm around her shoulder, and a sweet feeling welled up in her heart.
This man always puts her first, no matter what.
Just as the two were cuddling and waiting, several nurses rushed by pushing a hospital bed. A moment later, they wheeled out a pregnant woman with a belly as big as a gong from another medical room. She was probably in labor suddenly, and she was rolling around on the bed in pain, constantly yelling, "It hurts so much, just kill me!"
As Lin Ye passed Lu Wanqing, he quickly shielded her with his body to prevent the hospital bed from hitting her.
She still saw it; the woman's face was a mixture of sweat and tears, her hair was soaked and stuck to her temples and forehead, and her pig-like screams lasted for a minute before disappearing at the end of the corridor.
Lu Wanqing bit her lip, looking like she was about to cry, and snuggled into Lin Ye's arms.
In her previous life, she hadn't had a chance to give birth to her baby, nor had she experienced the pain of childbirth. When she saw others in labor pains, she felt as if she were experiencing it herself, and her heart was filled with panic.
I've heard that childbirth is a level 10 pain, comparable to the ten most brutal tortures. I was always immersed in the joy of having a baby and never thought about what I would face during childbirth.
Lin Ye noticed her fear and quickly hugged her even tighter.
Lu Wanqing felt relieved, but then noticed that Lin Ye's body was trembling slightly and tears were welling up in his eyes.
"What's wrong with you?" Lu Wanqing asked, pouting.
Lin Ye touched his head to hers, his lips trembling as he said, "You're carrying three babies, so it will definitely be more difficult for you to give birth."
Lu Wanqing sensed his suppressed worry and relaxed instead, comforting him: "It's okay, I'm not that fragile. As long as we have regular prenatal checkups and exercise more, the baby will feel sorry for its mother and won't let me suffer for too long, so the baby can be born smoothly."
Lin Ye still held her, unable to shake off the mix of worry, heartache, and helplessness that lingered in his mind.
When Zhang Wei and Wu Minzhi came out, they saw the same scene: a tall, burly man sobbing with his head resting on the shoulder of a petite pregnant woman.
If you didn't know better, you'd think he was pregnant!
Seeing Wu Minzhi come out, Lu Wanqing nudged Lin Ye shyly, and he then helped her up with embarrassment.
Wu Minzhi's results came back; she was indeed pregnant, more than two months along.
She happily took Lu Wanqing's hand and warmly invited them both to her home for dinner.
Lu Wanqing said she wanted to buy something for the old man, but Wu Minzhi refused to let her.
"Don't be so polite about buying me anything. I only have this child because of you."
After Wu Minzhi finished speaking, she took her arm and walked out without saying another word.
Lin Ye and Zhang Wei exchanged a glance and followed behind them.
After leaving the hospital, everyone got on their own bicycles and arrived at Zhang Wei's family residential area in just a few minutes.
When Zhang Changgui saw Lu Wanqing, he greeted her warmly.
Hearing that she was pregnant, he couldn't stop smiling.
"Dad, Minzhi is pregnant too!" Zhang Wei also reported the good news to him.
He became even more excited and hurriedly told them to sit down, and to let the men do whatever they needed to do.
He kept muttering, "I'm old now, the future belongs to the children."
Wu Minzhi smiled ingratiatingly: "Dad, you're still so strong and healthy, you even help me take care of the kids, and you'll be a great-grandfather someday!"
A burst of cheerful laughter erupted in the living room.
Zhang Changgui is over seventy years old. Although he has heart disease, he takes good care of himself and should have no problem being a great-grandfather.
In truth, he owes his life to Lu Wanqing.
Now, thanks to her, her daughter-in-law is able to conceive a second child. Her kindness cannot be expressed in just a few words.
At noon, Zhang Wei prepared a large table of dishes. Of course, Lin Ye saw that he was too busy, so he helped out. The two pregnant women didn't lift a finger. They wanted to help, but were scolded by the two men, so they simply didn't do anything.
During the meal, Zhang Wei specifically asked Lin Ye about Qi Wei's situation.
He's just waiting for Qi Wei to make a mistake so he can find a reason to fire him.
"He's been doing well lately. After recovering from his illness, he went back to school. His office burned down, so he simply moved to our teachers' office and worked there diligently. He's completely changed his personality!" Lin Ye said.
Zhang Wei pressed further: "No parents are causing trouble for him anymore?"
"No, he's very attentive to the children now. He even visits some families in need, bringing them gifts. The children are forgetful, so they've all started to like him."
Lin Ye thought of what Qi Wei had done in the past, and a look of hostility appeared on his face.
How could someone like Qi Wei, who is capable of harming children, suddenly change his ways? He must be harboring evil intentions!
Lu Wanqing shared the same sentiment and said in a pleading tone, "Minister Zhang, his dramatic change proves that such a person is cunning and has some big scheme in mind. It's not a big deal that Lin Ye is preparing to resign from his teaching job, but I'm worried that he might harm the children."
Zhang Wei nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly looked at Lin Ye and his wife and asked, "Is Lin Ye resigning because he's afraid of making things difficult for Qi Wei?"
“No, if Qi Wei causes any more trouble, we won’t need to bother you, the Minister of Education. We’ll handle it in our own way. A-Ye mainly wants to take care of me and be there for me during childbirth,” Lu Wanqing said, blushing.
Wu Minzhi looked on with envy, "That's so nice. Awei is busy with work and can't always be with me."
Zhang Wei scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "I promise I'll come home earlier after get off work from now on, and I'll take care of all the housework, cooking, and looking after Da Bao."
After hearing this, the group burst into another round of delighted laughter.
However, Zhang Wei still told Lin Ye and Lu Wanqing that he would find an opportunity to get rid of Qi Wei and not give him another chance to do bad things.
Lu Wanqing nodded; this meal had been worthwhile.
When she and Lin Ye returned, Lin Xiaocui and the others were still waiting for them to come back for dinner!
Lin Ye put down some things he had bought in the county town and said with a hint of heartache, "Why don't you eat first? We've already eaten."
Lin Xiaocui and Lin Chunhua smiled and said, "Mom has already eaten and gone for her afternoon nap. Anyway, we're not hungry, so we'll just wait. Now that you've eaten, we'll start eating."
Only then did the two pick up their bowls and begin to eat.
Perhaps they were extremely hungry, because the two of them wolfed down their food.
