In the late afternoon, just before quitting time, Shen Hongmei returned to the factory.
"President Shen."
"Why have you come? Have a seat."
Shen Mingzhu stood up to pour a glass of water for Shen Hongmei and expressed concern for her health.
When the conversation turned to the child in her womb, Shen Hongmei's face revealed the happiness unique to women, and her hand instinctively caressed her belly.
"Mingzhu, thanks to you taking me to the hospital in time. The baby is fine, and my fainting was due to anemia. The doctor prescribed folic acid tablets and iron-fortified syrup. After taking them for a while, I should improve."
"I'm glad it's nothing serious."
Shen Hongmei took a sip of water and hesitated, "I would like to ask for some time off."
"No problem, go home and rest well. Health is the most important."
Shen Mingzhu's understanding did not relieve Shen Hongmei as much as it should have; she felt somewhat downhearted.
