"You can go to town with me tomorrow."
After thinking about it, Jiahui still felt that it would be safer to go to the hospital for a check-up. Of course, the hospital in the town is not called a hospital, but a clinic. The configuration is simple, but it is still no problem to do a pregnancy test.
"Okay." Zhao Donglin responded first, and then asked, "Where are you going, Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"
Jiahui's life is simple. Apart from going back to her mother's house, she usually goes to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some needles, thread and daily necessities. After all, there are no other stores in the town except the supply and marketing cooperative, so she can buy everything she needs there.
Jiahui shook her head, "No, I want to go to the clinic."
Zhao Donglin frowned, with imperceptible tension in his voice, "Go to the clinic? What's the matter, what's wrong with you?"
Jiahui wanted to say it directly, but when she saw Zhao Donglin's nervous look, she suddenly thought of teasing him, so she took Zhao Donglin's arm, leaned her head on his shoulder, pouted slightly, and her tone was delicate and innocent. A trace of resentment, "I have something to tell you, don't be nervous after listening."
It's fine if she doesn't say it, Zhao Donglin is really inexplicably nervous after saying this.
"My aunt hasn't come for more than half a month, I want to have a test."
Zhao Donglin was confused, and at first he really didn't understand what Jiahui meant. First of all, women in this era seldom use "aunt" to describe their menstrual period, so he just felt that this word was a little familiar.
He soon realized that there were always a few days every month when Jiahui wouldn't let him touch her, saying that it was inconvenient for her aunt to come.
Although Zhao Donglin already had two children, he had never been involved in Wang Mei's previous pregnancy and childbirth, so he lacked knowledge of women's physiology. It took a few seconds to think of pregnancy with a soldier's keen intuition.
"are you… "
pregnant
Dong Jiahui saw that he was so excited that he couldn't even speak, his expression changed from calm to unbelievably joyful, and the change was fast enough, almost catching up with the face-changing of Sichuan opera.
"I just checked because I didn't know. I have no experience, and it's not easy to ask Mom. If I don't get pregnant, Mom will definitely be disappointed."
The disappointment of the mother-in-law is a small matter, but the embarrassment of herself is a major matter.
Zhao Donglin hugged Jiahui tightly excitedly, and couldn't help kissing the top of her hair, "No, I have a hunch that she must be pregnant."
He is very happy, very happy. Although he and Jiahui reached a consensus not to have children within a few years after marriage, he actually changed his mind a year ago. Every time he saw her and Yingbao Heidan getting along harmoniously together , he really wanted to have a child of himself and Jiahui.
She is beautiful, caring and gentle, and will definitely be the best mother in the world.
After mentioning it to her husband, Jiahui couldn't help but want to act like a baby. She sighed and said, "I didn't have any appetite today, but at night I smelled the sour noodle soup that Zheng Yuefen ate. It was sour and spicy, and suddenly I was very greedy and wanted to eat it. .”
Women should be good at using their own weaknesses to win men's sympathy. In this family, everyone else is nice, but as long as Zheng Yuefen is around, she will always make things difficult for herself. Eye drops, let Zhao Donglin know what kind of life his daughter-in-law is living.
Jiahui's eye drops were really not in vain. Anyway, Zhao Donglin was very distressed when he heard it. He blamed himself for not caring enough about his daughter-in-law. Not only did he not know that she was pregnant, but he didn't even know what she wanted to eat.
"I'll go to the kitchen and make it for you."
It is natural for a daughter-in-law to want to eat, no wonder she is not happy today, being angry with her younger siblings and not saying anything, she wants to eat sour noodle soup and even resists it.
After speaking, he was about to go out, Jiahui hurriedly grabbed him.
"Farewell, it's so late, it's getting dark, and it will be midnight when you get slender."
But seeing him like this, Jiahui still felt very sweet.
"I accept your wish, I hope you will treat me so well in the future."
"Of course I am nice to you, who else can I be nice to if I am not nice to you?"
"A man's mouth is deceiving, I don't believe you."
Zhao Donglin held Jiahui's hand and placed it on his heart, and under his palm was the sound of his beating heart.
"I'm telling the truth. I'll treat you well in this life. But if I treat you badly and I'm sorry, let me beat you..."
Jiahui covered his mouth.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Just promise me, and you will listen to me in the future. You can do whatever I ask you to do. You must support me unconditionally for what I want to do."
Zhao Donglin suddenly thought about the college entrance she mentioned half a month ago, but on second thought, even if the college entrance examination resumes, Jiahui might not be able to take the exam. Another, if she is really pregnant, she will definitely not be able to let go of the child, no Will be thinking about the exam again.
With that in mind, he readily agreed.
Jiahui had a good night's sleep. Although she hadn't confirmed her pregnancy yet, Zhao Donglin had already lifted her to the top of her head with actions, and was careful in everything she did.
The new day is another day for Zheng Yuefen to die, and Meixiang still made her the leek pancakes she said early in the morning.
"Mei Xiang, you can't always be like this. You have to cook a small stove for her alone every day, and you have to prepare two different meals for each meal. Besides, even if you are pregnant, you can't do everything. Next time you let her eat what she wants by herself."
Meixiang is also helpless, she is only nineteen years old this year, and logically she is also a little girl, but the child of the poor in the countryside is already in charge of the house, cooking and laundry, and taking care of the children to do farm work, she has done a lot.
But there is no way, her mother often said that everything is prosperous in family harmony, and for the peace of the family, someone must suffer.
But sister-in-law was able to tell her this, and Jiahui was also grateful. At least sister-in-law knew her own difficulties, unlike second sister-in-law who never said anything good no matter what she did for her.
"Sister-in-law, I know you love me, but the second sister-in-law has a bad temper and is still pregnant. It's not nice to say it. Although I sometimes annoy her, I don't want to look at the face of the monk or the face of the Buddha. For the sake of my second brother and the child in her belly, I will still be called aunt in the future."
The second sister-in-law said that the child in her stomach wanted to eat, but no one knew that it was because she was hungry and wanted to eat, so what should I do? She could even ask her stomach
Jiahui also said a few words to the point, and then she stopped mentioning it. In the end, everyone chooses how to deal with things and live their lives. It's their own choice, and it's useless for others to say more.
After breakfast, Jiahui went to the warehouse first, and Zhao Donglin also went to the village, and brought her back later.
The health center is a concrete building with gray walls, which must be small compared to the scale of hospitals in later generations with dozens of floors and a few buildings. It is already the best house in the commune in this era.
Jiahui has never been to the health center in the town, but she has a lot of experience in going to the hospital in her later life, so she went to the registration office first and asked if she needed to register, saving herself the trouble of running back and forth.
In the obstetrics and gynecology department, a female doctor was on duty. She asked about Jiahui's situation, wrote a few lines in the medical record, and took a glass tube for her to test her urine.
"Doctor, how long will it take for this result to come out?"
The doctor saw that Zhao Donglin was a gay man, he looked energetic and upright, and it was rare for a man to accompany his wife to the hospital, so he felt a little fond of him.
"That's your daughter-in-law. Seeing how nervous you are, this one will be very fast. It will take ten minutes at most. Just sit and wait."
Zhao Donglin sat on the wooden bench, feeling a little tormented.
In the past, in the army, you could wait for more than ten hours, or even days and nights, to complete the task, but now, in just ten minutes, you are always in a state of being on the verge of collapse.
When Jiahui came out of the toilet, the two sat on the rest chair holding hands, and when the name of "Dong Jiahui" was called at the test window, Zhao Donglin hurriedly got up to get back a test sheet.
He read it as he walked, but he knew every word on the list separately, but he didn't know each word together at all, and he didn't understand that positive means pregnancy.
"Congratulations, you are pregnant."
Jiahui Moming breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhao Donglin laughed silly.
The urine test is only to confirm the pregnancy. As for how long she is pregnant, it is impossible to tell. In this era, B-ultrasound has not been introduced in China. The doctor asked Jiahui about her menstrual status and gave her an approximate pregnancy time and expected date of delivery.
"Doctor, is there anything else I should pay attention to?"
"Don't do heavy work, just add some proper nutrition. If you have a stomachache or bleeding, go to the hospital. Another point, avoid intercourse. Just pay attention to the rest. In our rural areas, there are no women who don't have babies. This gay man Don't worry."
Jiahui smiled, thanked the doctor, and pulled Zhao Donglin away. Zhao Donglin supported Jiahui along the way, for fear that she would fall. Jiahui was moved and funny.
"I'm just pregnant, so you don't need to do this."
"I'm just so excited."
Jia Hui originally wanted to tease him, why are you so excited that you already have two children, but she didn't say anything when she thought it was inappropriate.
"What do you want to eat, why don't we eat at the restaurant today?"
There is also a time-honored state-run restaurant in the town. Although the dishes are not very rich, normal meals are still available.
"No, let's go back and eat. It costs money to eat out, and the taste may not be very good."
"Yes, it's not as good as your craftsmanship, so I'll buy you whatever you want."
Jiahui smiled, "You said that there are two pregnant women at home at once, and I have to take Zheng Yuefen's portion of everything I eat, and she eats more than me."
Zhao Donglin held Jiahui's hand and didn't say a word. He didn't have any good or bad feelings towards this younger sibling before, but after Jiahui got married, the younger siblings did often get into trouble with Jiahui. Well, as a husband, he must feel sorry for his wife.
"Well then, I'll buy some lo-mei and put it in the house for you to eat when you're hungry."
Jiahui nodded, this is already a great improvement for Zhao Donglin.
On the way back, Zhao Donglin weighed some dim sum and braised meat, and bought some meat when he passed the jerky. Jiahui didn't ask him to buy more, so he bought two catties.
Buying meat in the town requires a meat ticket, and it costs money, but it’s his own money, so it’s not worth it. The food for the family should come from the worker.
"I'm pregnant now, and we have to save money. There will be more places for children to spend money in the future. Every penny saved is a penny."
The money she saves there is needed to support her children and go to school, and the money is only worth it when she spends it for herself.
"You are now conscious of being a mother."
"Of course, we have to plan for our children. Heidan will go to primary school next year, so we have to make life as good as possible."
Zhao Donglin held Jiahui's hand, feeling more at ease than ever before, as she said, the two of them had to get better together.
"Hey, why did you buy so many things today?"
Zhao Donglin took the meat to the kitchen and gave Yingbao some snacks, but Heidan Shitou was not at home, so the rest went to the room.
"Jiahui went to the health center for an examination. The doctor said she was pregnant. She was in a good mood, so she weighed some meat."
"What? Jiahui is pregnant too!"
Good things come in pairs! No wonder the swallows settled down under her roof this year
"Well, Jiahui has no experience, so she went to the hospital for an examination."
"Oh, my goodness, I've been looking forward to this and I've been looking forward to it."
Zheng Yuefen and his wife are not at home at the moment, Meixiang is holding Yingbao with joy on her face, this kind of joy comes from the heart, it is completely different from the mood of the second sister-in-law when she said she was pregnant yesterday, but besides being happy, she is also a little puzzled , Didn't it mean that my sister-in-law can't have children? Why is she pregnant again
"Jiahui, how do you feel? Is there any discomfort? Tell Mom what you want to eat."
"Mom, I'm fine. It's just that yesterday when Yuefen was eating sour noodle soup, she suddenly felt a little greedy, but I smelled fish and it made me sick."
"You're reacting."
"Tell me, why don't you tell me what you want to eat yesterday? If you want to eat, let Meixiang do it with you. Why bear it?"
"Then I don't know if I'm pregnant or not."
Zhang Qiao'er doesn't know what to say. I really don't know how her in-laws raised her daughter. She is transparent in major matters, and she is also sensible and polite, but this woman really doesn't understand anything. What can I do, I have to be myself as a mother-in-law so much trouble.
"Then I'll make sour noodle soup for you at noon. After you bought the meat, I'll add some sliced meat to it. It's definitely more delicious than what you ate yesterday."
Jiahui smiled and nodded, "Well, thank you Mom, I'm drooling a little now."
"Then you rest, I'll let Meixiang do it now."
Before her mother could speak, Meixiang put Yingbao down and went back to the house to cook.
Yingbao is still young, so she doesn't know what it means to be pregnant. She only knows that her family is in a good mood, and her parents brought her delicious food.
Jiahui pulled Yingbao and asked her to lean on her, stroking her head and asking, "Is it delicious?"
Ying Bao nodded, his watery eyes turned into two crescent moons when he smiled.
"Eat more if it tastes good. Let grandma put the ones in this small bag for you. If you want to eat, ask grandma for it."
Zhang Qiaoer came over and said, "You are in a special situation now, so you can't hold your baby in the future. Also, don't hold someone's newborn baby when you go out. If you hold someone else's baby, they will pull green cakes. They want to talk about it."
This was the first time Jiahui had heard such a statement.
"Is it true? I can have diarrhea when I hug other people's children?"
"Don't believe me, listen to my mother's words."
"Well, I listen to the mother."
Anyway, she wouldn't take the initiative to hug other people's babies. She hasn't hugged her own babies enough yet.
Seeing her daughter-in-law so well-behaved and sensible, Zhang Qiaoer was quite comforted in her heart. In fact, the old man just likes obedient juniors, and she must be muttering in her heart when she meets someone who can answer you ten or eight sentences if you say a word.
Meixiang kneads and rolls noodles, Zhang Qiaoer cooks, and Jiahui helps choose vegetables. At eleven o'clock, Zheng Yuefen comes back. She is pregnant now, and the team takes care of her. She doesn't need to go to the field, just help out. Zheng Yuefen is in the morning Tiantou peeled peanuts to eat, and some people in the team were already dissatisfied.
"She is pregnant, and her mother-in-law greeted the captain specially in the morning."
"Hey, who hasn't been pregnant yet? No one else has seen Jiaocheng like that. When I was pregnant with Dongzi, I was picking seedlings under the water."
"You didn't hear people say that you ate sour noodle soup yesterday and the leek pancakes you ate this morning. She married well, so compare yourself to her."
"It's not because of her elder brother's glory, but her sister-in-law is still barren."
She has lost all the benefits.
Zheng Yuefen came back and smelled the sour noodle soup, and the smell of meat was still wafting in the air. She was overjoyed. She didn't expect that she ate sour noodle soup yesterday and made it again today. Her mother-in-law also specially weighed the meat back, which shows that she takes her stomach very seriously. .
"Mom, are you making me sour noodle soup again today?"
Meixiang glanced at her mother, there was not much white flour in the house, it was only enough for one person, she only made sister-in-law's, and the second sister-in-law would definitely not have it if she wanted to eat, unless the sister-in-law could have leftovers, but even if there were leftovers, it would not be enough for the second sister-in-law Yes, the second sister-in-law ate two whole bowls of soup yesterday.
"This is your sister-in-law's. She is also pregnant. Your elder brother weighed the meat and came back. You can eat a few more pieces of meat later."
Zheng Yuefen's eyes widened in disbelief, "Dong Jiahui is pregnant!"
She did it on purpose, she just talked about her pregnancy yesterday, and Dong Jiahui is also pregnant today, is this to fight for herself
