Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 1140

Chapter 1140: Have More Tonics

Zhai Hua’s face seemed to be distorted. She wanted to smile but she was too nervous and emotional to smile. “Yes, she is pregnant!” She was going to be an auntie!

There was a look of envy in Tian Dong’s eyes. Zhai Sheng was so much younger than Zhai Hua and him, but he was going to be a father. As for him…

Looking at Zhai Hua who was still overjoyed over Zhai Sheng’s and Qiao Nan’s child, Tian Dong sighed. He felt that much still remained to be done.

Miao Jing heard the sounds outside the house and looked up, breaking into a smile. “Hey, what brings the three of you here?” Hua Hua went out on a date with Dongzi. Could it be that they had a date at the place where Nan Nan had her social practice?

Miao Jing had no idea that her guess was spot on today.

“Nan Nan, are you feeling unwell?” Miao Jing looked concerned the next instant. She noticed that Zhai Hua lent her support to Qiao Nan as she walked into the house. She had a big shock and was worried. “What’s wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Let’s go to the hospital right away.” Why would she fall sick for no reason?

Zhai Hua took her time to help Qiao Nan take a seat. Once she sat down on the sofa, she shouted at the top of her lungs. “Auntie, please bring a cup of…” Zhai Hua was reminded of the female doctor’s words. She quickly lowered her voice. “Auntie, please bring a cup of warm water and a plate of fruits for Qiao Nan. Remember. The fruits have to be fresh. In the future, Qiao Nan will have all the fresh fruits and ingredients at home. I can have the rest that are not as fresh.”

Qiao Nan was pregnant. She had to eat more nutritious food. Even if she did not have good food, she must at least have it fresh and clean!

“Alright.” The auntie nodded. She prepared a plate of fruits for Qiao Nan according to Zhai Hua’s instructions.

Everyone did not know of Qiao Nan’s condition, except for the auntie.

The auntie was responsible for throwing the rubbish at home.

There were only a few women in the Zhai family.

The auntie noticed that Qiao Nan did not seem to have bought sanitary pads or used them in the past two months.

The auntie had children of her own. She knew that a woman must have been pregnant in this condition.

“Nan Nan, have some water.” Zhai Hua waited on Qiao Nan. Miao Jing did not notice that anything was amiss. “Nan Nan, where do you feel unwell?”

Zhai Hua jumped up and pursed the corners of her lips. She took out an ultrasound picture from the bag. “Mom, let me show you something!”

“What is this?” Miao Jing had a look of confusion on her face as she looked at the picture in her daughter’s hands. “What is this? This doesn’t seem to have any bones.”

Miao Jing rarely visited the hospital. Back when she was pregnant, the hospital did not have this technology. She could not tell what the picture was.

Zhai Hua sniffed and pointed at the picture. “Mom, this is your grandchild, my nephew or niece! I went with Qiao Nan to see the obstetrician today. The doctor said that Qiao Nan is two months pregnant. In less than eight months, I will be an auntie and you will be a grandma!”

The small form would grow hands, legs, noses, and eyes. When the babies were born, they would wail and cry. In another year, they would become sweet little babies who would address her as their auntie!

“M-my grandchild?” Miao Jing was shocked. She snatched the picture from Zhai Hua and stared at it intently. “M-my grandchild?” Miao Jing repeated in disbelief.

“Yes, your grandchild. They are in Qiao Nan’s tummy now. Zhai Sheng is going to be a father. I will be an auntie and you will be a grandma!” Zhai Hua kept nodding. This was the first time that she saw her nephew and niece. Even though they were still very small, she was very emotional when seeing them.

“Hahaha, I am going to be a grandma. I am going to be a grandma!” Miao Jing was as elated as Zhai Hua. “Hurry and give Zhai Sheng a call. Tell him this piece of good news. He is finally going to be a father. There will be children in the Zhai family again!”

“What children are you talking about?” Old Master Zhai, who came back from outside, heard part of their conversation.

“Old master, Qiao Nan is two months pregnant. You are going to be great-grandfather!” Zhai Hua was very happy to share the great news with her family.

Bam! Old Master Zhai’s beloved teapot slipped out of his hands, dropping onto the floor, smashing into pieces. “I-I am going to be a great-grandfather. You must not play a joke on me!”

“It is the truth. Take a look at this for yourself.” Zhai Hua snatched the first ‘photo’ that her nephew and niece took from her mother and showed it to Old Master Zhai. “Look. I am telling the truth!”

“This black dot is my great-grandchild?”

“Yes. In less than eight months, you will be able to hold the baby in your arms!”

Old Master Zhai felt a wave of darkness and he fainted from being overly excited.

“Old master?” Thankfully, Tian Dong had quick reflexes. He supported Old Master Zhai and pinched at his philtrum. Old Master Zhai regained his consciousness and howled loudly. “I am going to be a great-grandfather!!!”

Old Master Zhai was elated but he had given Qiao Nan a good scare.

“Don’t worry. Old Master Zhai is in good health. Don’t be worried.” Miao Jing was scared stiff by Old Master Zhai as well. Therefore, she could understand that Qiao Nan must be worried.

Miao Jing could not help but be anxious at the thought of her unborn grandchild. “It’s alright. Everything is alright.” She must not frighten her grandchild.

“Old master, Madam Zhai, congratulations.” The auntie smiled. It turned out that Qiao Nan was indeed pregnant. Qiao Nan brought fortune to them. The Zhai family had everything except for young children.

The auntie who was all smiles did not know that Qiao Nan was really a lucky girl. When Qiao Nan found out how lucky she was many months later, she had a big shock herself as well. She was grateful to be bestowed with such a great fortune.

“Hua Hua, you mentioned that you went with Nan Nan to the hospital. What did the doctor say? Is Nan Nan alright?” Miao Jing caressed Qiao Nan’s face tenderly. “Does she need more tonics? Nan Nan is quite skinny.”

“The doctor said that she has to take more tonics. But we must not overdo it. If not, it will be difficult when she goes into labor in the future.” Zhai Hua repeated everything that the doctor told her.

Zhai Yaohui came back right then. He also heard the great news that he was going to be a grandfather.

“We must have a good meal today to celebrate. Dongzi, stay for dinner.” Miao Jing, who was going to be a grandmother, was all smiles. She was in high spirits, and she extended a warm invitation to Tian Dong.

Tian Dong would not stand on ceremony. “Sure. I will impose on you today.” He agreed right away as if he had been waiting for the invitation.
