Two generations of military wives compete for time

Grandma Chen Yalu said jokingly: "Yizhen, it seems that you have a strong fertility ability. Junhua is now eight months pregnant. The second child will be born around November next year. Don't worry, your grandparents strongly support you." Qian Yizhen made a face at his grandma: "Am I a pig?"

Grandpa Lu Kaipu said: "Yizhen, you have good physical fitness, so it's okay to have more children. If your grandmother's health allowed it, we would have wanted to have more children. But her physical condition doesn't allow it."

Grandma Chen Yalu continued, "We old couple don't have any other hobbies, we just like to look after babies, raise them, and enjoy the wonderful process of nurturing seedlings into towering trees. Hahaha, just let go and have children, your grandparents will help you take care of them."

Qian Yizhen was infected by her grandparents' enthusiasm in encouraging her to have more children, and decided to go to the hospital as soon as possible to check the truth. If she was really pregnant, she would try again for a second child.

The next day, Qian Yizheng went to the Provincial People's Hospital for a check-up, and found out that she was pregnant. With the experience of giving birth to her first child, conceiving a second child was a familiar process, and it was a leisurely and natural process.

After the pregnancy test, Qian Yizhen came to the information desk and asked, "Excuse me, can the hospital do paternity testing?" The answer was, "DNA testing is not available in China at present."

Qian Yizhen returned to the company, sat at her desk, and quickly got into work mode. After finishing the work at hand, she looked at tomorrow's work schedule and glanced at the wall clock. She hurried off work and decided to visit Professor Chen's home to talk about doing DNA testing.

After knocking on Professor Chen's door, Sister-in-law Hao Xia said, "Yizhen, you are such a busy man, what brings you here today?"

"Sister Hao Xia, how are you? Is Professor Chen home? I have something to ask him."

Sister-in-law Hao Xia welcomed Qian Yizhen into the house and said, "Professor Chen is not at home. He said he is working on a difficult problem in the laboratory and has not been home for a few days." Qian Yizhen looked around the room and said, "Oh, is that so? I'll find time to go to the laboratory to find him."

This was the first time Qian Yizhen came to Professor Chen's home. He found that his old house and his grandmother's old house were roughly the same in terms of courtyard design, layout and area. They were antique and it seemed that his ancestors were also a wealthy business family.

It is said that this was left by Grandma Lu Jingde's ancestors. Grandma Lu Jingde was smart since childhood and received a good education. She did not bind her feet. She graduated from Beijing Girls' High School and taught at a university when she was young. After retirement, she focused on painting, but she never talked about her life and family background, including her adopted son Chen Zhuoran.

Led by sister-in-law Hao Xia, Qian Yizhen came to Grandma Lu Jingde's studio, which was about 50 square meters, spacious and bright. In front of the drawing table, Grandma Lu, with white hair and a youthful face, was painting with great concentration.

Qian Yizheng waved her hands, signaling sister-in-law Hao Xia not to speak. She wanted to watch for a while longer. What a warm picture of comfort, concentration, and freedom. It would be great if she could use a camera to capture this beautiful moment for her.

After greeting Grandma Lu Jingde and explaining the purpose of the visit, Grandma Lu Jingde said, "Since Dad Qian has agreed, this matter must be done quickly. When Zhuoran comes back, I will urge him."

After bidding farewell to Sister-in-law Hao Xia and Grandma Lu Jingde, Qian Yizheng returned to his grandparents' home and immediately went to find his uncle Chen Haoyu to discuss the DNA test.

Uncle Chen Haoyu said, "It's just right, let's do both things at the same time. My eldest daughter, Chen Mengwei, your cousin, wrote to say that she has found a doctor to treat Yuanyuan and can come to Hong Kong for treatment at any time."

Qian Yizhen hurriedly said, "Granduncle, thank you so much. My parents are blessed by you."

"I will go to Professor Chen tomorrow to discuss with him and see when it is convenient for him to go to Hong Kong."

"By the way, Uncle, do you want to exchange it into Hong Kong dollars? I'll go get it ready."

Uncle Chen Haoyu waved his hand and said, "No need to prepare. You don't need to worry about the money, and neither does Chen Yalu. Your cousin's textile company is engaged in cross-border business and is very profitable. She is not short of money."

Qian Yizhen said hurriedly, "I'm so sorry. I'm bothering my cousin so much. I'll pay her a special visit later and learn from her how to run a company."

Uncle Chen Haoyu smiled and said, "You are right to think so. I think you are also a good businessman. Maybe you can join hands to occupy the domestic textile market."

Qian Yizhen touched his head and asked, "Do I really have this ability?"
