Chapter 1512: Deputy Regiment Commander Fu, What's Wrong With You?

~4 min read 707 words

As soon as the nurse finished speaking, Fu Yan Cheng thanked her repeatedly, but just as the lead nurse tried to hand the child into his arms, he slowly squatted down, then plopped onto the ground.

His action startled the nurse, Auntie Wei beside her, and the several sisters-in-law who had followed: "Deputy Regiment Commander Fu, what's wrong with you?"

He raised a hand to signal everyone was fine: "I'm fine, just my legs are a bit weak. Let me rest a moment."

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances, then all burst into laughter.

Sister-in-law Tao stepped forward with a smile, taking the child from the nurse's arms: "Is this the eldest?"

The nurse laughed: "Yes, the eldest and the youngest are boys, the second is a girl. The eldest is four jin eight liang, the second is four jin three liang, and the third is slightly smaller, only three jin six liang."

Sister-in-law Tao bent down and handed the eldest from her arms to Fu Yan Cheng: "Here, let your father hold him. You and the mother must be exhausted from carrying the four of you."

At this moment, Auntie Wei also took the second child from a nurse behind her, then stepped aside, letting Tang Xinrui step forward: "Wife of Company Commander Feng, help hold little Third."

Seeing Fu Yan Cheng like this, the nurses found it hard to describe; they never expected the usually imposing Deputy Regiment Commander Fu to have weak legs from fear outside the delivery room.

Having worked in the delivery room for so long, this was the first time they had seen a woman give birth so quickly, and the first time they had seen a companion's legs go weak.

Oh my goodness, no way, they must hurry inside and share this with their colleagues inside.

So the lead nurse, suppressing her laughter, said: "Deputy Regiment Commander Fu, hurry and handle the hospital admission procedures, then go to the obstetrics ward nurse station to have them arrange a room for you. The mother won't be out for a while; just leave one person here to wait."

Hearing that his wife and children were waiting for him to make arrangements, and seeing the child Sister-in-law Tao handed into his arms, his sense of responsibility instantly surged, and his physical discomfort slowly eased.

Auntie Wei and Tang Xinrui also bent slightly, letting Fu Yan Cheng get a clear look at the second and third children. Sister-in-law Tao laughed: "Deputy Regiment Commander Fu, your Chuxue is truly skilled at birthing. All three children have inherited your best traits. Though their size is smaller than a single birth, all three are clear and healthy, making people happy just to look at them."

Just as he prepared to stand up to handle the admission procedures, Xiao Guo ran up the stairs: "Deputy Commander."

Seeing Xiao Guo, Fu Yan Cheng didn't wait for him to speak again; he pulled money and coupons from his upper pocket: "Xiao Guo, please help me handle your sister-in-law's hospital admission procedures first, then buy some hot porridge for her. She must be so hungry her front is sticking to her back by now."

Xiao Guo instinctively reached out to take the money, but his eyes were fixed on the triplets: "They really gave birth to triplets, Deputy Commander. You guys are too awesome. In our entire military region, having twins is rare; you suddenly produced triplets. Now you and your wife will be famous."

Fu Yan Cheng said nothing, but the curve of his lips revealed his mood: "Go handle the matter first."

Xiao Guo turned with a smile, replying as he ran: "Yes, Deputy Commander, I'll go right now."

Fu Yan Cheng stood up from the ground: "Sister-in-law Tao, I'll wait for Chuxue here. You take Auntie Wei and the others to the ward area first, find Head Nurse Gu, and ask her to arrange a room for us."

Sister-in-law Tao was about to say something when Fu Yan Cheng spoke: "It's fine; I already gave her a heads-up before."

Sister-in-law Tao thought about how Head Nurse Gu was also a military wife; though not very familiar, they all knew her: "Alright, then we'll go over there first."
