Chapter 1240: Chapter 1240 Appearance 8
After hanging up the phone with Chen Xiting, He Zhilan was in a fantastic mood.
In the days following the reception, He Teng had been busy arranging for He Zhilan to go to the city for a prenatal check-up. It sounded simple, just a check-up, but due to the special circumstances and He Zhilan’s unique status, many things, even the details, had to be thoroughly checked, just as Bian Xiulin said, even a nurse’s background had to be scrutinized.
When He Teng returned from the city, it was already past six. Thanks to the cooperation of the military and local departnts, everything was arranged smoothly. On his way back, he even brought He Zhilan fresh fruit and her favorite snacks.
Upon entering the door, He Teng slled the aroma of food. He almost dashed into the kitchen, “Zhilan, what are you doing in the kitchen?”
“Cooking, of course,” He Zhilan turned with a spatula in hand and smiled at He Teng, “I have nothing to do at ho all day. During the day, while you’re out busy, I either take walks around the barracks or nap at ho. I noticed it was alti, so I thought of preparing a al. Just now you ca back, we can start eating! Ever since you brought back, you’ve even been washing my clothes. I feel like I have nothing to do at all.”
“You’re pregnant now, it’s inconvenient to cook. Didn’t I tell you to wait for to co back and cook? What if you get hurt?” He Teng frowned and reprimanded her a little, “You’ve been good for two days and already started misbehaving again.”
“I’m not that delicate, am I? It’s just eight months, and you won’t let do this or that. Back ho, didn’t you see those pregnant won still working in the fields before giving birth?” He Zhilan pouted, then placed the last dish into the wok, and brought the plate to He Teng’s nose, smiling, “Quick, taste and see if my cooking skills have declined!”
“Oh, you… that’s them; you’re not them. Have you ever worked a day in the fields? Those are other people’s wives; their n don’t care. I can’t say anything about that, but you’re my wife; I can’t stand seeing you struggle.” As he spoke, He Teng quickly took the plate from He Zhilan’s hand, holding the plate in one hand and leading He Zhilan out of the kitchen with the other. He placed the items on the table and then bent down to remove the apron from He Zhilan, saying, “You should rest well now. You’ll have plenty of ti to be busy later. After the baby is born, that’s when you’ll really be busy!”
He Zhilan nodded happily, “I just feel like it’s been so long since I last cooked for you!” She replied, not arguing back, fully aware that He Teng was caring for her and understood he wanted to make up for the hardships she had endured before.
In fact, He Zhilan vaguely sensed that He Teng sowhat regretted letting her get pregnant while she was still in the village.
Dinner was two dishes and a soup personally prepared by He Zhilan. The two sat at the dining table, eating and chatting, filling the room with warmth. As He Zhilan touched her round belly, her face was filled with deep happiness. Before long, their ho would welco a new child, and that empty room could gradually be turned into a nursery.
“The prenatal check-up is scheduled for the morning after tomorrow.”
Before bed, He Teng told He Zhilan about the check-up, “Everything is arranged at the hospital, so you don’t have to worry. On that day, there will be soldiers protecting you the entire ti, and I won’t leave your side. Don’t be intimidated by the big arrangents; it’s just a precaution. At this ti, it’s unlikely anyone would cause trouble.”
