Learning to press oil is not that easy. The oil press factory is now state-owned. Chen Pan asked around but didn't find anyone who could press oil in Houling Village.

Chen Pan didn't know how to press oil using the traditional method, nor could she get the tools for pressing oil. Chen Pan couldn't afford or buy the new oil press.

In the end, Chen Pan tried everything but got nothing. She could only give up for the time being and prepare to take Li Fu to the city for a physical checkup. Li Fu didn't want to go through the trouble, but Chen Pan and Chen Kang'an were both worried about her safety. In order to reassure everyone, she finally agreed to go for a prenatal checkup.

Li Fu's belly was too big for her to ride a bicycle. She couldn't walk. Lu Yan thought about it, and when Chen Pan was worried, he harnessed the Lu family's donkey cart and prepared to take Chen Pan and his family to the town to see a doctor.

Yes, after having a donkey cart, Chen Pan decided to let Chen Kang'an go to the hospital as well. Chen Kang'an's leg should also be checked again. Chen Kang'an didn't want to stay alone at home, so he readily agreed to Chen Pan's proposal.

Houling Village is not close to Changshi Town, and the donkey cart can't go fast. Fearing the cold, Chen Pan put three thick quilts in the car, wrapped the Chen family in the quilts, and let Lu Yan drive away.

Donkey carts are not faster than bicycles. Lu Yan drove out of the village in the morning. After more than two hours of slow and smooth driving, they finally arrived in the town at around ten o'clock.

Although they were not tired after riding all the way, and they were not cold with the quilt covering them, the space in the donkey cart was limited. Chen Pan and the other two were squeezed together, and they could not stretch their legs. They were still very uncomfortable.

Finally, they arrived at the hospital gate. Chen Pan could not wait to jump off the donkey cart, stamp her feet, and quickly move her arms and legs that were uncomfortable.

After some strange movements to activate the blood circulation, Chen Pan felt that she was alive. Carefully helped Li Fu get off the car.

Li Fu was also uncomfortable in the car. She had a bigger belly than Chen Pan, and she felt even more suffocated sitting in the small donkey cart.

Finally got off the donkey cart. Although Li Fu did not make any particularly exaggerated movements like Chen Pan, her expression was much more relaxed.

The same was true for Chen Kangan. Finally, she could get off the cart. Even though Chen Kangan's legs were numb and she lost consciousness, she could only let Lu Yan carry her and could no longer use crutches. Chen Kangan still felt comfortable.

The obstetrics department and the orthopedics department were not in the same place.

After entering the hospital, Lu Yan carried Chen Kangan to the orthopedics department to see her legs, and Chen Pan helped Li Fu to the obstetrics and gynecology department for a prenatal check-up.

It was Dr. Nie who examined Li Fu. After carefully examining her, she asked her many questions, then nodded to Chen Pan and the others with satisfaction, saying that they were very lucky and that Li Fu was doing well with the baby.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Comrade Li Fu's due date is the week of the Chinese New Year. It's hard to say whether it will be before or after the Chinese New Year, but it should be those days. During the Chinese New Year, the hospital will arrange shifts for holidays. If you want to come to the hospital to give birth, come to the hospital in advance and let the hospital arrange a doctor for you."

"If necessary, I can deliver the baby for you."

"However, Comrade Li Fu has experience and looks good. If you have a reliable midwife at home, it's okay for her to give birth at home."
