Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1284

Along the way to the hospital, Wang Muxiao felt contractions once in a while. Compared to before, the pain was not as intense—she only experienced a bit of backache and soreness.

For her, the contractions were similar to period cramps, so she remained relaxed during the trip. When the sun rose in the eastern horizon, she rubbed her stomach and said, "Husband, can you get me breakfast? I’m hungry."

Hearing her words, Lu Cheng was stunned. He looked at his wife and said, "Wife, we are in the middle of the road, and there is no store nearby. Where should I buy breakfast for you?"

"Didn’t my sister-in-law pack some scallion pancakes and steamed meat buns for us? Just give me those," Wang Muxiao said.

Just the thought of fragrant scallion pancakes and delicious steamed buns made her mouth water.

Lu Cheng saw her expression and stopped the bicycle. He walked to the side and took out a cloth bundle, carrying it to his wife before opening it.

Inside was a thermos flask and a package wrapped in oil paper. He untied the package and found five scallion pancakes and eight steamed buns. Opening the thermos flask, he smelled the fragrance of the herbal chicken soup.

He handed the thermos to his wife and said, "Wife, drink some chicken soup first before you eat."

"Thank you, Husband," Wang Muxiao said and took the thermos.

After drinking several sips, she handed it to her husband and said, "Husband, you drink some too."

Lu Cheng knew his wife was stubborn, so he didn’t refuse and took a few sips. Even after just three sips, the cold in his body dissipated. The ginger in the soup warmed him from the inside.

After closing the thermos, he placed it beside his wife and took a scallion pancake. As he rode the bicycle, he would take bites of the pancake.

Along the way, they chatted and ate together. If not for the occasional frown on his wife’s face, he might have forgotten that she was experiencing contractions and that they were on their way to the hospital.

Two hours later, they finally arrived at the county hospital. When the security guard saw them, he quickly walked over and asked, "Comrade, is your wife going into labor?"

Lu Cheng nodded and replied, "My wife is having contractions, so we decided to come early."

The security guard nodded and went to call a nurse. Not long after, he returned with one.

When the nurse saw the bicycle, she smiled and said, "Comrade, you can park your bicycle first. I will help your wife register."

Lu Cheng nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you, Comrade."

Having a nurse register for them will be faster than if they handle it themselves.

"Comrade, this is my duty," the guard replied politely. _{frёeweɓηovel.coɱ}

They had only been allowed to give birth in the hospital after making a big fuss or because the midwife didn’t dare to help them due to their health conditions or baby’s position. Now, seeing someone with a loving husband, they couldn’t help but feel envious.

Unaware of their gazes, Lu Cheng stored the cloth bags in the cabinet and placed the bamboo baskets beside the bed. Their bed was in the corner near the window, so he just put the baskets on the ground. Since there was no air conditioner, the window was open for better ventilation.

Fearing that his wife might catch a cold, he covered her with a thin blanket and said, "Wife, I will go pay the deposit first. There is still some chicken soup left—if you are hungry, drink it."

"Okay," Wang Muxiao nodded.

After making sure his wife was comfortable, Lu Cheng finally left the room.

Not long after, a young woman in the next bed looked at Wang Muxiao and said, "Sister-in-law, you have a good husband."

Hearing this, Wang Muxiao smiled and replied, "My husband is very caring and gentle. It’s my blessing to have married him."

The young woman had expected her to brag about her husband or show off her dominance in the relationship. Unexpectedly, she didn’t follow the script. Instead, she praised her husband and humbly acknowledged her fortune.

The women in the ward exchanged knowing glances. This woman was smart and wise. Only a foolish wife would belittle her husband in public.
