Zhang Dongi still felt sick, so she went to the bedroom to rest without rejecting her husband's words. After helping his wife lie down on the bed, Li Chenze went to the kitchen and picked up a jar of preserved lemons given by Lu Jueyu.
He puts two slices of lemon and a spoonful of wild honey into a bamboo cup, then pours hot water and stirs until the honey dissolves. Then, he returned to the bedroom with the cup in hand.
When he walked into the bedroom, he saw his wife leaning against the wall with a pale face. He walked over, sat by the bed, and said, "Wife, drink so water."
Zhang Dongi saw the lemon slices in the cup and took a sip. Feeling her nausea lessen, she drank more water. The sour taste of lemon is not much, and combined with honey, it tastes delicious.
After she drank the water, she said, "Husband, I'm fine."
"Wife, let's go to the hospital for a checkup when you feel better," Li Chenze said.
"Okay." Zhang Dongi said with a smile.
Seeing that his wife looked much better, Li Chenze breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I will prepare the table."
Father Li ca out of the bedroom and saw that the table had been set, but there was no one around. He sat down and waited for his son and his daughter-in-law.
After a while, he saw his son coming out of the bedroom and asked, "Eldest son, where is your wife?"
Li Chenze sat opposite his father and said, "Ah i is sleeping in the room."
Father Li was surprised by his words. His eldest daughter-in-law is a person who can't sit still. Even if there is no work to do, she will find sothing to do. It was rare for her to take a nap at this ti.
"Is your wife sick?" he asked.
Seeing his father's worry, Li Chenze smiled and said, "Father, I plan to take Ah i to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow."
This ti, when Father Li heard what his eldest son said, his eyes lit up and he said, "Then don't let your wife do the heavy work. If that doesn't work, invite your wife's sister over and let her help with housework. We can pay her with food or money."
After hearing this, Li Chenze thought for a while and said, "After we confirm that Ah i is pregnant, I will talk to my wife about it."
"Good, good, good!" Father Li said happily.
Because they were in a good mood, both Father Li and Li Chenze ate more than usual. Not long after lunch, Han Yuheng ca carrying a bamboo basket on his back.
After cleaning up the kitchen and washing the dishes, Li Chenze ca to the bedroom and saw his wife sleeping soundly. After closing the door, he picked up the bamboo basket, machete, and hoe, and left with Han Yuheng.
On the way to the mountains, they passed Li Chenmo's ho. Seeing his third brother washing things by the river, he looked at Han Yuheng and said, "Team leader, I have sothing to say to the third brother. Please wait a mont."
Han Yuheng nodded and said, "Brother Chenze, take your ti. I'll wait here."
Li Chenze crossed the bamboo bridge and saw his third brother washing abalone with a brush. When he saw the abalone, he was surprised and asked, "Third brother, where did you buy it?"
Hearing his elder brother's voice, Li Chenmo raised his head and saw the bamboo basket on his back.
"Brother, where are you going?" he asked.
Li Chenze pointed at Han Yuheng and said, "I want to go to the mountain with the team leader."
Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows and asked, "When did you two beco so close?"
"This morning he ca to our father to borrow food. I didn't want to get myself into trouble, so I refused to lend it to him. But Father wanted to help him, so I took him to the mountains to find food," Li Chenze explained.
Nodding after listening to his words, Li Chenmo reminded, "Brother, rember to check the trap we set last ti. It has been two days, there should be so animals there."
"Okay. Third brother, did you buy these in the market?" Li Chenze asked again.
"My eldest brother-in-law gave these to . Co over and bring so back when you return later, we still have a lot," Li Chenmo said.
"You should leave it to your wife and children. I will go to the market to buy it tomorrow," Li Chenze said.
Li Chenmo looked at his brother and asked, "Brother, are you going to the town just to buy food?"
"No, your sister-in-law is not feeling well. We are going to the hospital for a check up." Li Chenze said with a smile.
Li Chenmo knew his brother very well. So when he saw his smile, he knew there had to be good news.
Considering his father's physical condition and his sister-in-law's condition, he said, "Brother, if you can, don't go to the black market these weeks. Also, my wife and I usually stay at ho. If you need any help, just let us know."
Hearing this, Li Chenze nodded and said, "I really need your wife's help. My wife feels sick and may need to stay in bed for a few days. If possible, please help us prepare so als for our father."
The mont he finished his words, Lu Jueyu walked out of the kitchen and said, "Eldest brother, leave the matter of Father and your family's al to . Let my sister-in-law rest more."
"Thank you, third sister-in-law." Li Chenze said gratefully.
After a brief conversation, he and Han Yuheng walked up the mountain together.
Looking at their backs, Lu Jueyu said, "Husband, it seems that we are going to have another niece or nephew."
"Mhmm, I hope it's not another brat," Li Chenmo said with a hint of expectation.
