Chapter 155 Two heartbeats?
The man had regular features and his temperament looked more like a soldier than a doctor. Even with a medicine box by his side, he didn't look like one.
Director Pei walked in quickly and asked, "Xiao Xia, how do you feel? Is your stomach still hurting? Doctor Zhou, thank you for your help."
The man nodded, put down his medicine box and looked at Lin Xia's stomach. Yang Hongmei quickly made way to let the doctor check.
"How do you feel now?" Zhou Zheng took out a stethoscope and asked as a routine question.
"It suddenly hurt a lot just now, but it's much better now." Lin Xia was also a little worried and looked at Dr. Zhou nervously.
Zhou Zheng put the stethoscope on his stomach to check. The more he listened, the more serious his expression became, which made Lin Xia nervous.
There won't be any real problem, right?
"How many months have you been here?" Zhou Zheng asked hesitantly.
"It's almost fifteen weeks." It was now the end of August, and if she had calculated the pregnancy period correctly, she should be almost four months along.
Zhou Zheng thought of the heartbeat he had just heard and felt that something was wrong. He was more skilled in first aid and trauma emergency treatment, and did not know much about gynecology. He suggested: "You'd better go to the hospital. I'm not very good at gynecology."
When Director Pei heard that the case was serious enough to go to the hospital, his face turned pale.
Lin Xia asked for help: "Excuse me, Doctor Zhou, is there something wrong?"
"I feel that your belly is a little big, and... I seem to hear two sounds. You'd better go to the hospital." Zhou Zheng guessed that there might be more than one child, but he couldn't draw a conclusion until things were confirmed.
Yang Hongmei listened and added: "I don't think I was this big when I was four months old."
Lin Xia saw that everyone was concerned about her belly, but her attention was focused on the two voices. Could she be pregnant with twins? No way?
Director Pei saw that she looked very nervous and comforted her: "Comrade Lin, don't worry yet. Calm down. Nothing will happen."
To find out the cause, they had to go to the hospital for examination. No one stayed any longer. Director Pei said before leaving that he would report to the organization.
Thinking of today's unexpected disaster, Lin Xia didn't want to let it go lightly. If Director Pei didn't mention it, she would have brought it up.
The trouble that had happened this afternoon had made it very late, and it was almost time to leave the camp, so Yang Hongmei went home to get busy.
Lin Xia was feeling confused and had no mood to prepare a complicated dinner, so she decided to just make do with what she had today.
Lu Yuxiu went home from the camp, but met Zhou Zheng on the way to the family area. As a military doctor, it was easy for him to not know him, as they had also been on the battlefield together.
Now he rarely appeared in the family area, and Lu Yuxiu greeted him without thinking: "Old Zhou, why are you here?"
Zhou Zheng didn't expect to meet Lu Yuxiu. When he first started treating her, he didn't know that Lin Xia was Lu Yuxiu's wife. After he came out, he asked curiously and only then did he find out.
As a result, he just found out about it and met Lu Yuxiu. He was not a gossipy person, but Lu Yuxiu knew about what had just happened as soon as he got home. It would be better for him to tell it clearly now to prevent him from worrying.
"Come with me." Zhou Zheng looked at the pedestrians on the road and pulled Lu Yuxiu to a place with fewer people.
"Comrade Lin seemed to have fallen. Director Pei asked me to go check it out, but he is not in good condition."
"What?" Lu Yuxiu's heart seemed to stop suddenly, and the expression on his serious face changed drastically in an instant.
"Don't worry. I don't think Comrade Lin's condition is that serious, but it's better to go to the hospital. I suspect that Comrade Lin may not be pregnant with a single baby." Zhou Zheng looked at Lu Yuxiu's face full of coldness and expressed his guess.
Lu Yuxiu was not so happy to hear the news, and he wanted to go back and see how Lin Xia was doing.
Seeing his serious expression, Zhou Zheng knew that he was worried. "I only know about Comrade Lin's physical condition, but I am not very clear about what happened. You should go home and check it out."
"Thanks, Lao Zhou. I'll treat you to dinner next time." Lu Yuxiu didn't bother to be polite with him. He turned around and sprinted home immediately.
As soon as he entered the house, he didn't see anyone. Lu Yuxiu's heart sank, and the little guy just came out of the kitchen.
"Dad!" The little guy remembered that his mother was bullied today, and immediately ran up and hugged his father's legs.
"Dad! Someone is bullying Mom!" There was a hint of fear and anger in the little baby voice. She was too young to protect her mother. Now that the oldest and most powerful person in the family was back, she couldn't help but step forward to seek a sense of security.
"Where's mom?" Lu Yuxiu leaned over and picked up the little guy.
"Mom is cooking..." With her arms around her father's neck, she chattered about what happened in the afternoon.
The little guy was sent upstairs by Yang Hongmei, and the only scene he saw was Lin Xia being "pushed down". Lu Yuxiu's heart tightened when he heard it.
When he arrived at the kitchen and saw Lin Xia standing there peacefully, he put the kid down and strode forward to take the spatula. "Are you okay? What happened this afternoon?"
"I'm fine." Lin Xia was looked up and down by the man. Seeing that he looked nervous, she smiled comfortingly.
When Lu Yuxiu saw her smile, he realized that she should be fine, but he still didn't dare to relax.
"I'll cook, you take a rest. Do you want to lie down and rest?" Lu Yuxiu was still a little worried.
"It's okay, I can just sit here." Lin Xia was not feeling uncomfortable now, and asked to sit on a stool. With a big belly, she would get tired after standing for a long time. Later, a high stool was moved to the kitchen, and Lin Xia would sit down occasionally to relax.
"Okay." Lu Yuxiu took over Lin Xia's position to cook. The little guy lay beside Lin Xia, touching his sister from time to time and muttering a few words in a low voice.
"What happened in the afternoon?" The little guy said something, mixed with his own feelings. Zhou Zheng was talking about Lin Xia's physical condition, and he only knew a little about what happened.
Lin Xia started from yesterday and gave a complete account of what happened today.
Lu Yuxiu didn't expect that he had come here yesterday. He stared at Lin Xia seriously and said in a serious tone: "You must tell me about this kind of thing in the future."
"I thought everything was fine since I rejected her yesterday, and I didn't think about it at night." Lin Xia didn't expect that they would not give up and come again today.
"I'll take a day off tomorrow and go to the hospital for a check-up." Lu Yuxiu remembered what Zhou Zheng said. Although Lin Xia said that she sat down on her own, he couldn't feel at ease until he saw the doctor's diagnosis.
Lin Xia nodded. She also wanted to confirm whether it was twins. It had been more than a month since the last check-up, so it was time for a prenatal check-up.
Until the evening, Lin Xia lay on the bed, exposing her belly and letting Lu Yuxiu apply cold cream on her. The little girl didn't want to listen to the story and stretched out her little hands to "help".
When the little one fell asleep, Lu Yuxiu hugged Lin Xia and felt much more at ease. When he heard the news that Lin Xia had fallen today, his heart seemed to stop at that moment.
It was not until he saw Lin Xia standing well that he felt like he was alive again. Now, hugging her, his heart was finally filled.
Fortunately, Lin Xia was fine, otherwise none of those people would have been able to escape. Even if Lin Xia was fine, they couldn't just pretend that nothing happened!
