Chapter 141 Even More Diligent Than an Old Ox (1/2)

Grandma Jiang glared at him.

"You're lucky to have anything to eat. Don't be picky. The chicken is used to make soup, and the giblets are perfect for stir-frying with sauerkraut. If you don't like it, just eat plain rice. Nobody will bother you."

Grandpa Gu fell silent. He hadn't said anything, so why was the old lady so angry?

The table was full of dishes that Lin Han loved to eat. She ate happily, and after filling her stomach, she started to feel sleepy again.

However, Gu Qizheng did not let her go back to her room so early, as it was not appropriate for her to lie down immediately after eating.

He has recently been asking his comrades, whose wives have given birth or are currently pregnant, about pregnancy and has learned a lot about it.

Pregnant women should exercise appropriately, as this is beneficial during childbirth, prevents excessive weight gain, and helps with postpartum recovery.

He knew that Lin Han loved beauty and was only tolerating her weight gain because she was pregnant. He knew she would be upset if she couldn't get back in shape after giving birth.

Gu Qizheng didn't tell Lin Han directly, fearing she would have body image anxiety, so he decided to quietly help Lin Han start increasing her exercise.

Lin Han liked to sleep in even before she was pregnant, and now that she's pregnant, she sleeps until late morning every day.

It's impossible to get her to get up early in the morning to exercise.

During the day, Gu Qizheng had to go to the military base, so he could only take Lin Han for a walk after dinner in the evening to help her improve her physical fitness.

"Honey, rest for half an hour and I'll take you for a walk."

"Um?"

Lin Han had no idea what Gu Qizheng was up to this time; the two of them had never had the habit of taking a walk after dinner before.

"But I don't want to move. I'm so tired. I just want to lie in bed and sleep."

As Lin Han spoke, she lay down, with Gu Qizheng supporting her waist with one hand and her head with the other.

"You have to exercise, so that the delivery will be smoother and you'll suffer less sooner."

Lin Han hadn't expected that Gu Qizheng had suddenly added the walking activity because of this.

However, he has a point; taking a walk after dinner is always beneficial.

"Alright, let's rest for half an hour first."

Half an hour later, the two left hand in hand.

Grandma Jiang watched from the yard, secretly smiling. Her grandson and granddaughter-in-law had such a good relationship.

Summer days are long and it gets dark late. When the two went out, the orange sunset hadn't faded yet, and the sunlight cast long shadows on the ground.

Grandpa Gu lives in a residential area for retired cadres, which is separated from the ordinary military family housing by a wall.

Each household here is a small two-story building with its own yard. The houses and infrastructure are larger and better, but the overall scale is not as large as the residential compounds outside.

The residents are mostly retired senior cadres and current high-ranking military leaders.

The compound and the military's ordinary family compound are back to back, with a large iron gate in the wall and a guard post.

Residents of the retired cadres' family compound can freely enter and exit ordinary family compounds, but residents of ordinary family compounds cannot enter the retired cadres' family compound without an invitation.

Lin Han and Gu Qizheng took a walk around the old cadres' family compound and greeted several elderly people they knew.

Then Lin Han pulled Gu Qizheng toward the ordinary family compound.

"There's a court over there, I'd like to watch someone play."

Gu Qizheng stopped and looked down at her.

"You're taking me with you to watch other men play ball?"

Lin Han felt a little guilty; how could she forget that Gu Qizheng was a man who loved to be jealous?

But she just wanted to tease him.

"Honey, are you jealous? You're upset because I saw other men playing sports?"

Gu Qizheng's expression was clearly not as good as before; he frowned, and his displeasure was written all over his face.

However, after staring at Lin Han for a few seconds, he gave up.
