Chapter 1010: Sergeant Lu’s Child
When she realized Major He trusted her, Jiang Yao said a few more words. “Major He, a woman’s mood during pregnancy is critical. Also, you must remember to supplement her nutrition during her pregnancy. Lack of nutrition and depression can cause a severe effect on the baby. Let her eat anything she wants during her pregnancy, and if there’s no harm, you should try to satisfy her needs. Her food intake will supplement the child in her womb so that the baby will have sufficient nutrition. When the baby is born, they will be fat, smart, and have soft skin too.”
“Mrs Lu, you don’t know, do you? If she overeats, then the baby will be too big. She won’t have easy childbirth!” Old Madam He quickly said.
“Pregnant women with excess nutrition have bigger babies and perhaps more difficult labor. However, Major He’s wife is already a little malnourished. In her current condition, she might not even be able to make up for the lack of nutrition.” It was impossible for Major He’s wife to make up for the nutrition in a short period.
“You’re still young. You don’t know anything. I’ve given birth before—”
“I’m a doctor. I know better than anyone.” Jiang Yao interrupted Old Madam He’s words impatiently. “Even though some of your experiences are suitable, they’re not completely accurate. I’m a doctor. I know better than you.”
“I got it. I understand, Mrs Lu. Thank you for your kindness!” Major He thanked her hurriedly. Then, he held his wife’s hand and said in a low voice, “Tomorrow morning, I’ll ask for a two-hour leave to go to Tianjin City to buy some food and supplements for you.”
Major He scratched his head and looked at Jiang Yao again. He asked, “Mrs Lu, can I ask you what I should buy to supplement her nutrition?”
“Buy her some calcium tablets and let her eat some fish, meat, and eggs. If possible, eat more fruits too.” Jiang Yao gave her opinion before she reached her hand into Lu Xingzhi’s hand and walked away.
When Old Madam He heard Jiang Yao recite such a long sentence, her heart ached. She immediately muttered, “Fish, meat? How much would that cost? You, young people, don’t know how to save money!”
Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi had only taken less than ten steps when a soldier carrying an unknown object ran toward them.
“Sergeant Lu! Sergeant Lu! There’s a child here that’s yours!” The soldier started to shout from afar, “The child has been crying all the way. I don’t know what’s wrong with them, but their little face is so red as if they are holding their breath.”
“Whose child?” On the other side, Old Madam He, who was already prepared to follow her son and daughter-in-law home, heard that and quickly ran back. She stuck her head out and looked at the soldier’s arms. It was really a child. “When did Sergeant Lu have a child?”
“Speak clearly.” Lu Xingzhi frowned and shouted at the young soldier, “Say it again, where did this child come from!”
The young soldier was frightened by Lu Xingzhi’s shout. After a few seconds, he stammered, “Just now, a woman came to the entrance with a child and said that she was looking for Sergeant Lu. We didn’t let her in, so she gave the child to us and then said… and then said…”
“What did she say?” Old Madam He asked.
Lu Xingzhi glanced at Old Madam He. The older woman subconsciously shrank her neck and s.h.i.+vered in fear. She thought to herself, why was Sergeant Lu’s gaze so scary? It was as if it could devour people.
