"What’s the matter? Is there something wrong with the babies?" Xie Jingchen’s heart skipped a beat as soon as he heard the doctor mention another check-up, and he anxiously shot back with concern.

"Mr. Xie, don’t worry. A monthly prenatal check-up is most suitable for pregnant women, but once your love reaches eight months, she should come in weekly. Twins tend to be born prematurely, so it’s best and safest to have thorough prenatal checkups."

"Alright, doctor. Is there any other advice you can give? I’d like to be somewhat prepared."

"Mr. Xie, no need to be nervous. The development of your wife is very good right now. As long as she maintains this condition, it’s very good."

The old doctor was quite accustomed to seeing first-time fathers like Xie Jingchen acting clueless. However, Zhang Shanni found it exceedingly entertaining.

This was because Xie Jingchen often maintained a stoic demeanor at home, which made Zhang Shanni particularly cherish the moments when he softened.

Especially the first time they visited Elder Liu, the way he suddenly turned into a ’doting grandson’ was truly an eye-opener for her.

On the way back, Xie Jingchen’s thoughts were preoccupied with whether to bring his parents over, or to have his sister come to stay— after all, when he was out on missions, the thought of his wife being home alone really made him worried!

As for the idea of her going back to her parents’ home alone? That was out of the question, something he never even considered.

Not to mention the day-and-night train ride, but just the unbearable stuffiness and odor on the train alone—he didn’t want his heavily pregnant little wife to endure that!

Moreover, he vividly remembered his wife had severe motion sickness.

Thinking about this, he became anxious and restless, as his little wife had come over by train alone with a big belly at the beginning!

Thankfully, nothing untoward occurred.

After returning home, Xie Jingchen hovered around his little wife. Seeing her getting on with things without a word, with her belly sticking out, made Xie Jingchen’s heart ache.

His wife was too capable and too independent, which actually made him feel a bit upset.

"Wife, take a break. There’s no rush for these things."

Xie Jingchen, noticing her hands moving like ’knife light and shadow’, was really afraid that raising his voice might startle her and cause her hand to slip, getting cut by her own kitchen knife.

"Go away, now it’s almost eleven o’clock. Let’s have something simple for lunch, and you can call people over after three in the afternoon. We’ll have an early dinner since the weather is really bad, it’s been snowing non-stop and is damp and annoying!"

"But it’s still early now, and watching you move so quickly makes me anxious."

There are two babies in my wife’s belly, two of them!!

"Brother Chen, as long as you don’t fuss around me, I won’t get hurt!" said Zhang Shanni as she continued to swiftly chop carrot shreds.

Now in the dead of winter, only storage-friendly vegetables like cabbage, potatoes, and carrots were available.

Her Space did have a lot of leafy greens, but alas, she dared not take any out to entertain guests.

Even the small pot she had deliberately placed near the stove, growing scallions, looked very pleasing to the eye, lush and green, which could almost be appreciated as ornamental plants!

There was chicken, duck, fish, meatballs, and other main dishes, enough to suffice. Then she would fry some dried oyster with eggs, quickly blanch tri-color vegetables – sour cabbage, spicy shredded potatoes – and the last dish was an appetizer, bright red shredded radish to visually please, and also sour and spicy to stimulate the appetite, how could it not whet one’s appetite?

"Wife, what dish do you want to eat? I’ll heat it up for you."

Xie Jingchen, seeing the large table full of meat dishes on the balcony, asked her.

"Mhm, I want to eat spicy tofu, please heat that for me. That one spoils the easiest, so let’s eat it while we still can."

Although the tofu now wasn’t as tender and smooth as in later times, it was truly original and certainly worth looking forward to.

"Okay, anything else?"

"No, just heat up the soup made with bones for me. I love drinking soup." Drinking more soup not only makes one’s skin better, but also helps the children’s bone development keep up.

It’s just that one shouldn’t over replenish all at once, or else the baby might grow too firm in the womb, and then it would be quite painful during childbirth.

"Mhm." Xie Jingchen had already made peace with the fact that his little wife was unwilling to listen to his advice; resigning to his caring heart, he instead simply watched her openly and upfront. freёweɓnovel.com

Seeing this little woman, carrying his child with a delighted face fluttering like a little butterfly, energetic in everything she did, diligent and with a proper mindset, he felt at ease thinking about the future discipline of his children.

Flashes of women like Wang Xiuzhen and Lin Aihong’s faces passed by in his mind, Xie Jingchen shuddered at the thought; if he really had to marry this type of woman...

He would honestly rather become a monk.

It would be exactly the case of ’having an unworthy wife at home, misfortune extends to three generations of descendants’!
