Chapter 235: Chapter 81: 9-Flavored Imperial Concubine Chicken (Part 1)
Knowing that Du Xixi is gentle and polite by nature, Doctor Mo and the director didn’t feel overly flattered by her thanks. Instead, they each grabbed an arm and pulled her away from Ke Lian.
Ke Lian, who was just holding his wife and saw her taken away in an instant: ...
Ignoring the intense jealousy radiating from a certain sourpuss, Doctor Mo and the director started chatting with Du Xixi:
"Xixi, you’ve recovered well! Much better than when you came in for your first check-up."
"I’ve seen the report; even though your body is recovering well, you shouldn’t slack off. Regular check-ups are still very necessary."
"The babies need to be well taken care of too. Next time you come, I’ll personally check them!"
"..."
"Regarding matters between you and the Marshal, we can’t speak directly to him, but you must remember to remind him to restrain himself a bit." Du Xixi couldn’t get a word in edgewise amidst their various concerns, so she had to just smile and listen quietly.
But as she listened, she suddenly heard the director lower her voice and say those words, making her face immediately turn red.
Matters between husband and wife... The director didn’t spell it out, but Du Xixi understood her meaning. Speaking of which, regarding such matters, Du Xixi and Ke Lian are not as familiar as typical couples.
After all, just from their wedding night, Du Xixi got pregnant with Yiyi and Er Er, the two little ones. Afterwards, even though the pregnancy stabilized, her body never fully recovered, so matters between husband and wife were...
Du Xixi coughed to hide her embarrassment, not daring to meet Ke Lian’s eyes that were sneakily glancing over. The sudden blush on her face betrayed her slight shyness within.
In terms of experience on this subject, Ke Lian and Du Xixi aren’t much better than beginners.
The little couple both felt a bit uncomfortable, but the director simply assumed they were just shy. After exchanging a knowing look with Doctor Mo, she nodded with a smile but let Du Xixi off the hook and moved on to a light-hearted topic.
Du Xixi naturally breathed a sigh of relief, while Ke Lian also relaxed and took a deep look at Du Xixi for a while. His gaze was inscrutable, carrying intentions known only to himself.
After chatting for a bit, Du Xixi and Ke Lian said goodbye to Doctor Mo, and on their way back to the ward, they bid farewell to several familiar medical staff they met along the way. It was almost time to leave the military hospital.
Fearing that a large crowd would gather and disturb Yiyi and Er Er when they left, Du Xixi, Ke Lian, and their group left quietly, using the back door of the military hospital, where there were usually few people.
Rob, in the form of a hovercar, had been waiting there for some time.
Openly leaving through the back door, besides a few medical staff, everyone still believed that the Marshal and his wife, whom they were eager to catch a glimpse of, were still staying in the military hospital.
It wasn’t until a few days later that the news of Du Xixi and Ke Lian having left the military hospital with their children was finally released. The military hospital was immediately abuzz, but Du Xixi and Ke Lian, who were already accustomed to their new home, remained very relaxed and comfortable.
Thanks to having two adorable and well-behaved grandchildren, Ke Xing’s various travel plans were naturally once again postponed. Moreover, seeing how preoccupied Ke Xing was with the children, it seems he might not pursue those plans for the next few decades either.
Miao Miao’s body has somewhat recovered, but remaining in her original form indicates her body still carries injuries. Fortunately, the Ke Family has a dedicated medical chamber, where Miao Miao needs to bathe daily, and 2569 was sent by Ke Lian and Du Xixi to look after her specifically.
As a result, the newly promoted "new parents" Du Xixi and Ke Lian were "forced" into their own little world. Apart from every few hours when Du Xixi needed to feed the babies, she and Ke Lian were practically inseparable.
"Xixi, we haven’t named the kids yet." Ke Lian played with Du Xixi’s delicate hands, and seeing her engrossed in a TV drama, he tapped her slightly chubby cheek with amusement, "Although there’s no rush until they’re ten, we should still decide soon."
In the Star Era, people usually don’t have formal names at birth. Parents often take a lot of time to choose a suitable name for their child, as a way to express their hopes and expectations.
Ten years old is roughly the timeframe by which parents typically choose a cherished name and then register it for their children.
