Chapter 154: Sudden stomachache?
Zhang Hongyan, who was standing by, didn't react either. She only saw that when Old Lady Zhou stretched out her hand, Lin Xia fell on the sofa with a look of panic on her face.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Zhang Hongyan was stunned. She just wanted to provoke Old Lady Zhou to make a scene, but she didn't expect that she would dare to attack a pregnant woman.
If anything happened, it shouldn't be her business, right?
There was a hint of worry and excitement in Zhang Hongyan's eyes. She was worried that she might be implicated, and she was excited because she wanted to see Lin Xia get into trouble.
Director Pei, who had not walked far from the door, heard the faint shouting, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately ran back.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw Old Lady Zhou lying on the ground. Lin Xia's face was filled with fear. Yang Hongmei stayed beside Lin Xia worriedly. The only person standing there without any incident was Zhang Hongyan.
"This...what happened?" The voice was trembling a little. It would be a disaster if anything happened to anyone!
As a military wife accompanying the army, Lin Xia had an accident in the family quarters. If the child was lost, how would she explain to Captain Lu?
The soldiers are defending their country at the front line, but they can't even take care of their families.
If Old Mrs. Zhou was also a family member and something went wrong, the rest of her life would probably depend on them.
Director Pei felt extremely regretful. She shouldn't have been so soft-hearted. If she hadn't agreed to come this time, nothing would have happened!
Now that I think about it, Zhang Hongyan’s behavior at noon was very wrong. She had no relationship with Old Lady Zhou at all, so why would she be so kind to help her?
She didn't say that she knew Zhang Hongyan very well, but she had never heard that she was a kind-hearted person. The current situation did not allow her to think too much, but she remembered this one thing!
"Comrade Lin, how are you?" Director Pei looked at Lin Xia with concern.
"My stomach hurts." Lin Xia's voice sounded a little weak, and she didn't look well.
Lin Xia felt her belly and saw that there was really no movement. She felt relieved immediately. Thinking back to the time when she was almost five months pregnant, it should be normal for the fetus to start moving, right?
In fact, she was not pushed down by Old Lady Zhou, she sat down by herself. Strangely enough, just when Old Lady Zhou was about to push her, her stomach suddenly hurt.
The pain came so suddenly that she was caught off guard and almost couldn't stand. She was about to fall backwards, and then Old Lady Zhou reached out her hand. In a panic, she had to grab Old Lady Zhou's hand as a cushion and fell towards the sofa.
Fortunately, she felt that the wooden sofa was too hard and uncomfortable to lean on, so she made a lot of pillows and put them on the sofa. When she fell down, she was not hurt at all.
But the sudden pain in the front made Lin Xia a little nervous, causing her to look a little panicked.
"I'll go get someone now. Don't touch Comrade Lin." Director Pei instructed Yang Hongmei and stood up to call for help.
"Ouch, ouch, my waist! My butt!" An anxious cry came from the side, it sounded serious, but the voice was full of energy.
Director Pei immediately understood the importance of the matter. Seeing that Grandma Zhou was still on the ground, he looked coldly at Zhang Hongyan on the side and said, "What are you doing standing there? Go and help Grandma Zhou up!"
Zhang Hongyan felt Director Pei's cold gaze and shrank back involuntarily. She and other military wives immediately helped Old Lady Zhou up, and then stood there, not knowing what to do.
"What? Who are you still waiting for here?" Director Pei asked coldly when he saw that they were still here.
"Are...are we sending Granny Zhou back?" one of them asked timidly, without any of the self-righteousness he had when he kidnapped someone before.
"What do you think?" Director Pei's voice became even colder, and she went out after she finished speaking. No matter what, she must ensure the safety of Comrade Lin and the child!
The temperature dropped several degrees. Seeing Director Pei's frosty face, the few people groaned in their hearts and helped Old Lady Zhou walk away.
They don't mind their own business anymore!!
Lin Xia moved her body and found a more comfortable position. After a few people left, the air became much fresher and the expressions on her faces became much more relaxed.
"I want to drink some water." She was a little thirsty because she had just talked too much.
When Yang Hongmei saw that she was fine, a trace of confusion flashed across her face. So, did she have a stomachache just now? Or didn't she?
"Are…are you okay?"
Lin Xia touched her stomach anxiously, and the pain she had felt before seemed to have disappeared. "It hurt just now, but it doesn't hurt now."
Yang Hongmei was startled. Seeing Lin Xia drinking the water poured by the little guy, she felt a little suspicious.
Lin Xia drank the water happily, looked up and saw Yang Hongmei's expression as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. She knew what she was thinking and explained, "It's true. When Mrs. Zhou reached out her hand, I suddenly felt a pain in my stomach for some reason."
She reached out and touched her belly, but she couldn't figure it out. Could it be that the little one in her belly sensed the danger and was reminding her?
Seeing that Lin Xia really wasn't pretending, Yang Hongmei thought she was overthinking it. After all, it was so dangerous at that time. If something bad happened, it would be very dangerous.
"Could it be fetal movement?" Yang Hongmei guessed when she heard her say it was painful.
"I don't know either. There was no movement after that." Lin Xia touched her belly, but there was no movement at all.
The little girl heard it and touched Lin Xia's belly with her little hand. She said in a childish voice, "Don't be afraid, sister! I will protect you!"
"Okay, mom will thank An An baby on behalf of her sister." Lin Xia rubbed the little guy's head, then remembered that she hadn't seen Niuniu, so she immediately asked, "Where's sister Niuniu?"
"Sister...sister wants to drink water, I'll get her some." The little girl then remembered what she was going to do downstairs, but was interrupted.
"Sister-in-law, please go up and take a look." Lin Xia looked at Yang Hongmei with some concern.
Yang Hongmei panicked and stood up to take a look. Seeing that Lin Xia was about to stand up, she hurriedly said, "Hurry up and stop moving! I'll go up and take a look."
Yang Hongmei went upstairs and An An followed beside her, feeling a little embarrassed as she had forgotten about her sister.
"An An, where did you guys play?" Yang Hongmei asked as she went upstairs and saw two rooms.
"Here." The little hand pointed and led the way.
As soon as Yang Hongmei entered the room, she saw Niu Niu lying on the ground with her arms and legs spread out, her belly bulging and she was holding An An's toy in her hand.
I felt relieved and saw that she was sleeping soundly. I didn't want to disturb her and was about to take the toy from Niu Niu's hand, but I found that she was holding it very tightly.
An An looked at the toy reluctantly. It was bought for her by her mother, and she was afraid that Niuniu would take it and not return it.
But she felt sorry for Niuniu, forgetting her upstairs. Seeing that she couldn't take the toy down, she said with a hint of heartache in her baby voice, "Give it to your sister to play with."
Yang Hongmei was afraid that she might break her finger, and was just thinking about whether to wake the child up, when she heard An An's considerate and sensible voice. Seeing the reluctance in her eyes, she smiled with a warm heart and said, "Thank you, An An. Then let me play with it for a while, and I'll give it back to you later, okay?"
"Okay." After hearing that, An An didn't feel so reluctant to return it to her later.
Yang Hongmei carried the child downstairs and came to Lin Xia's side again, sitting with her waiting for Director Pei to call someone.
Not long after, Director Pei came back.
A man in green military uniform followed him, carrying a medical kit.
