Seeing their anxiety, Doctor Hui smiled and said, "Comrade, the test results are very good. When I took your wife’s pulse, I thought her physical condition was not suitable for childbirth. Unexpectedly, judging from the test results, your wife’s health status is very good."
"I’m sorry I made a mistake and made you worried," she added.
Hearing this, Li Chenze and Zhang Dongmei were both overjoyed.
"Can I keep the child?" she asked.
Doctor Hui nodded and said, "The fetus is stable and healthy. You are five weeks pregnant, which is why you are experiencing morning sickness. I will give you folic acid and you need to take it daily until you are twelve weeks pregnant."
"Doctor, is there anything my wife needs to avoid?" Li Chenze asked.
"The nurse will give you a list of what to avoid during pregnancy and what foods your wife needs to eat," Doctor Hui said with a smile.
Hearing this, Li Chenze nodded and said, "Thank you, doctor."
After the nurse gave them the list and bill, they went to the lobby. While his wife was resting, Li Chenze went to the counter to pay.
When it was his turn, the nurse took the bill and said, "Comrade, the total is 78 yuan."
As soon as the nurse said this, a man behind Li Chenze took a breath and said, "It’s so expensive."
Just as Li Chenze was paying, the man poked him on the back and added, "Comrade, is there someone in your family with a serious illness? Why is your bill so expensive?"
"My wife is pregnant and I took her to have a pregnancy checkup," Li Chenze said lightly.
"Comrade, you are so wasteful. Women ah, if they are not feeling well, just let them stay at home. As long as they eat enough, they will be fine. I never bring my wife for a pregnancy checkup and she still gives birth to my children without a problem," the man said proudly.
When Li Chenze heard this, his eyes turned cold, but he was too lazy to talk to such a person. So, after getting the receipt and folic acid, he strode away.
When the man turned around, he saw Li Chenze helping Zhang Dongmei out of the hospital. The man smacked his lips and said, "What a misfortune it is to marry such a squeamish woman!"
Upon hearing this, the nurse frowned and said coldly, "Comrade, if you don’t want to register or pay, please don’t block other people’s way."
Zhang Dongmei didn’t know what her husband and the stranger were talking about, so she said, "Husband, did you meet someone you know?"
"No," Li Chenze shook his head.
