The CEO's Wife and First Love

Chapter 679: During pregnancy

"Lizhen, this is something I brought specially for you. It's sauerkraut that I made myself!" Jinlan said with a smile, then quickly opened the suitcase and carefully took out the bottle of homemade sauerkraut.

Seeing this, Li Zhen rushed over and happily accepted the sauerkraut as if it were a precious gift. She turned around and handed the sauerkraut to Anthony, who was standing beside her, and said gently, "Anthony, take this back for Li Min to eat."

Anthony looked at Lizhen and Jinlan gratefully, smiled and said, "That's great, thank you, Auntie! Li Min has had no appetite these past few days. She can't eat almost anything, and she vomits out everything she eats very quickly." His tone revealed his concern for Li Min.

The first three months of pregnancy are indeed a very difficult period for pregnant women, with various discomfort symptoms coming one after another. But it doesn't matter, Jin Lan immediately volunteered that she knew a good way to stop Li Min from vomiting.

"Great!" Anthony smiled delightedly upon hearing the news. He said, "These past few days, I've watched Li Min vomit everything she eats, and it's been really hard on me."

However, Lizhen raised a question: "But can these ingredients be bought here?" She was worried that Chinese carp might not be found in this place.

When Anthony heard this question, he did not hesitate at all. His thinking was as fast as lightning, and a possible solution immediately emerged in his mind.

"I'll go look for it!" he said without hesitation, his voice revealing confidence and determination. "I'll go to Wall Street. There are a lot of Chinese people there. Maybe I can find it there." His tone was firm, as if he had already seen the dawn of success.

Li Zhen looked at Anthony, with a flash of surprise and admiration in her eyes. She didn't expect Anthony to answer so decisively and even propose a specific location to look for.

"I'll go to Wall Street tomorrow to look for it. If Auntie needs any other ingredients, I'll definitely look for them tomorrow." Anthony continued, his words full of concern for Lizhen and his emphasis on the task.

Li Zhen thought for a moment, then said, "We also need fermented rice wine and brown sugar."

"What kind of fermented rice wine?" Anthony asked with some confusion.

Li Zhen quickly explained, "It's wine made from glutinous rice."

Anthony suddenly realized it and immediately made a mental note of the information.

After dinner, Lizhen and Wang Kun wanted to take Jinlan back to their residence.

"Auntie, I'm going to find the carp and buy the fermented rice wine. I'll come to see you after that." Anthony went back immediately after separating from Lizhen.

When Anthony returned home, he opened the door and saw Li Min and the Filipino maid coming out of the bathroom. His eyes fell on Li Min, and his heart tightened.

For over a month, Li Min's mental state had deteriorated due to her inability to eat. Her face was as pale as paper, devoid of color, and her once bright eyes had lost their luster, appearing dull and lifeless. Seeing Li Min so emaciated, Anthony felt so distressed that he could hardly breathe.

At this moment, Anthony was overwhelmed with emotion, and he deeply realized that he should be filial to his mother. The process of a woman giving birth to a child is so difficult, and the difficulties and challenges she goes through are unimaginable to ordinary people.

For a mother, the ten months of pregnancy are not only physically taxing but also mentally demanding. From the moment of conception, the mother's body begins to undergo various changes, and she must endure the discomfort, fatigue, and various physical reactions of pregnancy. Furthermore, during these long ten months, the mother must constantly worry about the health and safety of the fetus, which creates immense psychological pressure.

In addition, during pregnancy, a mother faces many challenges and challenges. She may be unable to work due to physical issues, and financial pressures may also arise. At the same time, she must also take good care of herself and ensure the healthy growth and nutrition of the fetus.

Thinking of this, Anthony's respect and gratitude for his mother deepened. He understood how much his mother had sacrificed for his growth, and how selfless and profound her love was. Therefore, he resolved to do his utmost to honor his mother and make her feel his love and gratitude.

He walked quickly to Li Min and whispered, "Dear, look what goodies I brought you." He pulled out a can of pickled cabbage from the bag in his hand and said, "This is what Grandma Lizhen brought from America. She told me that this is something pregnant women especially like to eat."

Li Min raised her head slightly and glanced at the jar of pickled cabbage, a hint of anticipation flashing in her eyes. Anthony, seeing this, quickly handed the pickled cabbage to the maid and told her to go to the kitchen and make it.

Then, without hesitation, Anthony stretched out his arms and hugged Li Min tightly. He could feel how weak Li Min was, as if a gust of wind could blow her down. He carefully picked up Li Min, holding her like a precious treasure, and walked into the bedroom.

Anthony put Li Min on the bed. Suddenly he thought of something and ran to the kitchen. "Let me do it." He immediately picked it up with chopsticks and put it on the plate. A sour smell wafted out and Anthony's taste buds immediately came out. He immediately brought it to the room.

"Honey, here comes some delicious food." When Li Min smelled the taste of sauerkraut, the taste buds in her mouth gushed out like a spring.

Anthony, with a smile on his face, carefully picked up a piece of pickled cabbage with his chopsticks and slowly brought it to Li Min's mouth. Li Min looked at the pickled cabbage with anticipation, gently opened her mouth, and let the pickled cabbage slide into her mouth.

When the pickled cabbage touched Li Min's tongue, a rich, sour flavor instantly filled her mouth. The sourness wasn't pungent, but rather refreshing and invigorating. Li Min chewed the pickled cabbage carefully, savoring its unique texture and flavor.

"This pickled cabbage tastes absolutely amazing!" Li Min couldn't help but exclaim. She had never tasted anything so delicious before, as if this bite of pickled cabbage had given her taste buds an unprecedented satisfaction.

Li Min's appetite was immediately whetted, and she couldn't wait to have another bite. She quickly snatched the chopsticks from Anthony's hand, picked up a large piece of pickled cabbage without hesitation, and stuffed it into her mouth, enjoying the delicious taste.

Li Min was intoxicated by every bite of sauerkraut. She felt that no other food in the world could compare to the sauerkraut she was eating. The taste of this sauerkraut was so unique and unforgettable that it completely immersed her in the world of delicious food.

At this moment, Li Min was completely immersed in the delicious sauerkraut, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her. She savored every bite of the sauerkraut, feeling the unique sour taste and rich texture, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "This sauerkraut is simply delicious!"

At that moment, Li Min felt that no other food could compare to the sauerkraut in her mouth. No matter whether it was delicacies from land and sea or delicacies from other places, nothing could replace the satisfaction that sauerkraut brought her.

Li Min ate a surprisingly large meal. She savored the delicious dish, mouthful after mouthful, unable to stop. It was the largest meal she'd eaten in over two weeks, and also the most satisfying.

Strangely enough, Li Min didn't vomit tonight for the first time ever...
