Chapter 172 Wang Ling is Pregnant

Wang Ling, standing to the side, was a little shy. She nodded, then sat down opposite Wei Mo and slowly extended her right hand.

She also wanted to know if she was pregnant, which is a major event in a woman's life, especially in this era where having children is essential.

Although Li Sanpang wouldn't mistreat her, she still longed to have a child as adorable as Wei Mo.

Wei Mo slowly placed his hand on Wang Ling's wrist, closed his eyes slightly, and felt Wang Ling's pulse.

A few minutes later, Wei Mo looked delighted, and Grandpa and Grandma Yu, who were standing nearby, were also very happy to see Wei Mo's expression.

However, they did not disturb Wei Mo, because Wei Mo was still carefully sensing the pulse and had not withdrawn his hand from taking the pulse.

Wei Mo felt for a few more minutes before confirming that Wang Ling was indeed pregnant, because the pregnancy was still very early and the sensations were not very clear.

Fortunately, Wei Mo was quite skilled, so he was still able to tell from Wang Ling's pulse that she was pregnant.

He had just withdrawn his hand, and before Wang Ling could even ask, Grandma Yu hurriedly asked:

"Wei Mo, how is it? Is your Aunt Wang Ling pregnant?"

Looking at his tense family members, Wei Mo noticed that even Li Xiuxiu, who was inside the house, came out to listen to Wei Mo's diagnosis after Grandma Yu asked her question.

All eyes turned to Wei Mo. Wei Mo nodded to everyone before slowly speaking:

"She should be pregnant, but it's still too early, but it's almost certain."

Upon hearing Wei Mo's words, Wang Ling stood there dumbfounded, while Grandpa and Grandma Yu beamed with joy.

“Great, great! Now Wang Ling will have a child too, and our family will be more and more lively.”

Li Xiuxiu, Qian Manman, and the others nodded in agreement. They congratulated Wang Ling.

"Congratulations, Sister Wang."

The whole family had no doubt about Wei Mo's medical skills, after all, Wei Mo had treated everyone before, and they all highly regarded Wei Mo's medical skills.

Wang Ling was still sitting there dumbfounded, not quite reacting for a moment.

She was somewhat agitated, her hands were trembling, and she kept doubting herself.

"I'm pregnant! I'm really pregnant! Wei Mo, am I really pregnant?"

She asked three questions in a row, and Wei Mo nodded solemnly in front of her, congratulating Wang Ling.

"Aunt Wang Ling, congratulations! You're going to have your own baby soon."

Upon hearing Wei Mo's words again, Wang Ling finally laughed and repeatedly thanked Wei Mo in front of her.

"Thank you, thank you so much, Xiao Weimo, thank you so much."

Wei Mo was annoyed by Wang Ling's words of thanks. "Why are you thanking me when you're pregnant?" But he was too embarrassed to say anything.

Aunt Wang Ling was still too excited to react. The old man, on the other hand, was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Wang Ling:

"Wang Ling? Where did Sanpang go? Quickly call him over and tell him the good news."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Wang Ling stood up, wanting to run out to find Li Sanpang, but was stopped by Li Xiuxiu, Grandma Yu, and others:

"Now that you're pregnant, you need to be careful. Don't be so handsy or run around like that anymore."

Wang Ling then realized what was happening and awkwardly nodded to the side.

"I understand, godmother, Xiuxiu. I'll be more careful in the future. I was just too happy."

"Sanpang went hunting in the mountains. He should be back soon. I want to tell him the good news as soon as possible. He's been looking forward to it for a long time."

Children weren't valued much in this era, but since it was their first child, Wang Ling was especially excited.

Upon hearing that Li Sanpang had gone up the mountain, the old man spoke to Wang Ling,

"Then don't go back to call him. He'll come looking for you here when he comes down from the mountain. Manman, today is a good day. Go and make something nice to eat. It'll help Wang Ling recover."

Wang Ling felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, nodded to herself, and then thanked Qian Manman and Wei Mo's family:

"Thank you so much, you've been so kind to me."

Since Wang Zhenhua wasn't home, Grandpa Yu made all the decisions. Grandpa Yu waved his hand:

"Hey, no need to thank me, we're all family. Just repay your sister Wang's family well from now on, and be nice to Xiao Weimo, Xiao Min, and Xiao Hui. We're all family, no need to be so polite."

Grandma Yu, who was standing nearby, nodded in agreement. Wang Ling was so moved that she almost cried; meeting such a family was truly her good fortune.

Hearing the old man's words, Qian Manman was also full of fighting spirit. She went to the storeroom to take out a pheasant and prepared to make chicken soup for Wang Ling to nourish her body.

The food at Li Sanpang's house was decent, but compared to Wei Mo's house, it was nothing.

The food at Wei Mo's house was arguably the best not only in the village but also in the entire town, since Wei Mo had plenty of food to eat.

Qian Manman also possesses exceptional culinary skills, ensuring that the food and drink she eats every day are of exceptional quality, a rarity in this era.

Grandma Yu pulled Wang Ling into the house to talk about some private matters. After all, she was pregnant and needed to be careful about certain things, so she needed to teach Wang Ling a few things.

Qian Manman started cooking, while Li Xiuxiu and Wei Xiaomin assisted her.

Not long after, Wang Zhenhua returned from the knitting group. Upon hearing the news, he also congratulated Wang Ling.

"Congratulations, Wang Ling! You now have your own child and a man who loves you. Your future will only get better and better."

Wang Ling nodded happily and said to Wang Zhenhua:

"Sister Wang, thank you so much. Without you, I wouldn't have the life I have today. Thank you so much."

“From now on, my child will recognize you as his godmother. Although we are sisters, I will also have my child take care of you in your old age.”

Wang Ling didn't realize there was anything wrong with what she said. After all, Wang Zhenhua had sons and daughters, and she stood awkwardly to the side.

It took Wang Ling a long time to realize that she had been too happy and had forgotten about the incident.

However, Wang Zhenhua didn't pay any attention and continued to chat with Wang Ling about some women's issues.

After happily bringing a pheasant down from the mountain, Li Sanpang excitedly headed home. He had recently wanted to nourish his wife, Wang Ling, so he went up the mountain to find pheasants.

It took a long time to find this one. The mountains are still closed off by heavy snow. Prey is easy to find on the mountains, but not easy to catch.

Because the snow on the mountain was more than half a meter deep, climbing the mountain became extremely strenuous, and they could only search for prey in some windy spots.

Because of the wind, the snow is blown away by strong winds, exposing the mountains below. Pheasants and other animals come here to forage in winter.

When he happily arrived home, he found his door locked. He looked at the pheasant in his hand, and without any hesitation, he took the pheasant and headed towards Wei Mo's house.

Wang Ling wasn't home, and she didn't know anyone else in the village, so she must have gone to her godfather's house. He often went there with Wang Ling to visit the two elderly people.
