"See a doctor?" Lin Minjun paused while making tea and asked in surprise, "What disease?"

Mrs. Xu thought for a moment and said, "It can't be said that she is seeing a doctor. She just keeps taking medicine. The house I live in is the closest to their house, and I always smell the smell of Chinese medicine. Lingling thought I was sick."

"She seems to be taking some medicine for fertility. She wants to have a baby. When I met her these two days, her face looked scary, waxy yellow and bloodless. Why is she so anxious to have a baby when they have only been married for a short time?" Mrs. Xu shook her head, not understanding the young people's thoughts.

Lin Minjun was completely stunned. Why didn't the tea leaves go into the cup? She was stunned. "You said she was taking a folk remedy to have a baby?"

"Yes, she was taking medicine. I saw her spilling the medicine residue on the road." Mrs. Xu curled her lips and whispered, "How immoral."

Sprinkling the residue of Chinese medicine on the road means that passers-by will take the disease away with them when they step over the residue.

Lin Minjun was still in a daze. The kettle started boiling and she started crying. Mrs. Xu quickly wiped her hands and lifted the kettle to the ground.

Mrs. Xu looked at Lin Minjun in confusion, "Xiao Lin, what are you thinking about? The water is boiling, make some tea."

"Oh, I see." Lin Minjun put the tea leaves into the cup and poured hot water into it. The tea leaves immediately floated up and emitted a stream of hot steam.

Lin Minjun was simply speechless to Shen Hongyu. She was in good health, so why did she take that kind of medicine and ruin her body? Isn't that a sign of illness?

She had taken that kind of medicine and suffered that kind of pain in her previous life. She knew too well how uncomfortable it was, and yet Shen Hongyu actually asked for trouble!

Lin Minjun couldn't understand no matter how hard she tried. How could someone be so stupid? She took medicine in her previous life because she had no other options. There was nothing wrong with Shen Hongyu's body, so why should she take medicine?

She wanted to persuade Shen Hongyu, but thinking about her relationship with Shen Hongyu, she had no position to speak, so Lin Minjun could only suppress the idea.

When Shen Hongyu came to the birthday banquet, Lin Minjun was frightened when she saw her face.

After getting married, Shen Hongyu did whatever she wanted. Every morning her face was rosy and she looked very healthy. But now her face was extremely pale, with a hint of yellowish white, as if she had a serious illness. She spoke weakly and seemed to be dizzy.

Lin Minjun was frightened, and so were the other neighbors. They hurriedly asked, "Xiao Shen, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

"No." Shen Hongyu waved her hands reluctantly, "I was taking medicine, but the medicine was too bitter. I vomited after drinking it, which is why it happened. It's okay."

"What medicine should I take if I'm not sick?"

Shen Hongyu, "I want to have a baby soon. Deping and I are not young anymore. It would be embarrassing if we don't have a child."

The birthday banquet was about to begin, and people started asking everyone to sit down quickly. The men who were drinking sat outside, and the women who were drinking sat inside, at two tables.

After everyone sat down, the grandmothers and aunts in the alley began to talk to Shen Hongyu, because her complexion was so scary.

Goudan's mother said, "You can't rush having a baby. Look, it took me two years to get married to have Goudan, and another year to have Gangdan. Aren't they two children now? Why are you in such a hurry? Don't just take medicine randomly."

"That's right, this medicine is not a good thing. Taking too much can easily harm your body. You might as well take your time."

Everyone gathered around Shen Hongyu and tried to persuade her, one person after another. Everyone said that there was no need to be so anxious, and that matters concerning children had to be left to nature's own devices. It wouldn't come anytime soon, and maybe the baby would come once you stopped being anxious.

Some people also say that medicine should not be taken carelessly, as taking too much will harm your body.

Shen Hongyu had no intention of listening to them. She could only respond reluctantly, "I know what you mean, but I have my own difficulties."

"What suffering can be more important than the body?"

Shen Hongyu stopped talking and sat in her seat with a droopy face. Her complexion was pale and she looked miserable.

How can I tell outsiders about my difficulties? They won’t understand.

Shen Hongyu felt that no one understood her difficulties.

She saw that Lin Minjun was thriving in her career and had a strong financial foundation, and she suddenly felt that being a rich wife at home was not so good.

Shen Hongyu also wanted to start her own business, open a store or a factory. She told Lu Deping about this, hoping that Lu Deping would give her some money to start her own business.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Deping rejected it. He neither agreed nor gave any money.

Shen Hongyu was depressed at home for several days. After thinking about it over and over again, she still felt that it was because she did not give birth to a son for the Lu family. If she had given birth to a son, the Lu family would have treated her as one of their own, and they would have no problem with spending money.

The more she thought about it, the more Shen Hongyu wanted to give birth to a son as soon as possible and try her best to catch up with Lin Minjun.

As we were talking here, the kitchen started serving the dishes, one table at a time.

There are two tables of people today. We don't invite anyone we don't know well, so that we can keep costs down. The dishes are particularly grand. There are eight dishes on the table, six of which contain meat. Some are meat dishes, and some are sliced ​​meat fried in the soup, which is very fragrant.

Aunt Cao is the birthday girl, so she is very happy today. She didn't sit at the table to eat, but helped to serve the dishes and bowls.

At this time, Aunt Cao brought over a dish of fish stewed with tofu and greeted everyone with a smile, "Eat your food, don't be polite."

She pointed at the plate of fish and introduced, "That fish was not bought at the market, but was sent to me by my nephew from my hometown. My hometown was thinking about me, so they caught it from the river and raised it in their own fish pond for a few days. It spit out all the dirt and now doesn't have any fishy smell at all. Xiaolin, try it. You are still too thin. You need to eat more." Aunt Cao always looked at Lin Minjun like an elder looking at a younger person. No matter how much she ate, she still felt that she was so thin that it made people feel distressed.

Aunt Cao invited Lin Minjun to try the tofu stewed with fish, and Lin Minjun picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks.

She thought all the other dishes tasted good, but as soon as she brought the fish to her nose, she felt a fishy smell coming towards her face. The fishy smell was so strong that it made her want to vomit.

Lin Minjun felt something was wrong, so she put it to her nose and sniffed it. She immediately felt her stomach churning, "Grr!"

She couldn't help but get under the table and gasp.

The people around him stood up quickly, patted him on the back and poured him some water. Aunt Xu said, "Xiao Lin, are you okay? What happened?"

"Grr! It's nothing, just my stomach feels uncomfortable." Lin Minjun was still vomiting, waving her hands and saying, "It's nothing serious, don't worry."

Seeing her like this, the people around her didn't dare to eat anymore. They all looked at the fish and said, "It was fine just now, why did it suddenly vomit after eating this fish? Could it be that the fish is bad?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Wasn't the fish sent by Aunt Cao's nephew from her hometown?"

The neighbors started discussing it. Some said the fish was bad, some said the tofu was bad, and some took a piece of fish with chopsticks and smelled it. "It smells good, it's not bad."

Aunt Cao said, "Forget it, don't eat it. Don't eat it later or you'll get an upset stomach. I'll take it away."

Lin Minjun said: "It's not that the fish is bad, it's probably that I'm not feeling well."

She didn't smell any rotten smell just now, only a strong fishy smell, so it shouldn't be the fish.

Besides, this is Aunt Cao's birthday banquet, and she just said that the fish was sent from her hometown. If you say the fish is spoiled now, it will embarrass Aunt Cao in public.

Lin Minjun gulped a few times and felt better. She said, "I just think the fish is a bit fishy. Maybe I ate too much just now. It's okay. I'm sorry to make you lose your appetite."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? Are you feeling sick today?"

Lin Minjun nodded, "It seems that he is not feeling well. I guess it's because he never ate enough before and his stomach is upset. It's okay, you guys eat, I'll just eat something else."

The matter was just over. The people at the table smelled the delicious fish. A child couldn't help but pick up a piece of it with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, smacking it and saying, "Delicious!"

Others also started to pick up their chopsticks, you picked up a piece and I picked up a piece. Sitting next to Lin Minjun was Aunt Xu, who loved fish the most, so she also picked up a piece of fish. As soon as she took a bite, Lin Minjun smelled the fishy smell again.

This time she really couldn't hold it in any longer, so she ran to the side and started vomiting. It was as if someone grabbed her stomach and started shaking it, and everything she had just eaten came out in one swoop.

Aunt Cao quickly brought some water over. Lin Minjun rinsed her mouth and then she felt the nausea was much relieved.

"Xiao Lin, what happened to you?" Aunt Cao patted Lin Minjun's back and asked worriedly, "Are you okay? Ping and I went to buy the food today. We both picked the freshest food. It's impossible for it to go bad. How come you vomited after eating just two bites?"

"I don't know what's going on. It was fine when I ate it just now, but when I ate the fish, it suddenly smelled fishy and I couldn't eat it at all." Lin Minjun was also puzzled.

Aunt Cao: "Then don't stand there. Sit down and take a rest. See if you feel better."

Lin Minjun took another sip of water. "Do you think I am sick? Why is it that others are fine when they eat me, but I will vomit if I eat it alone?"

"Puh, puh, puh, how could you be sick? You just didn't get enough rest. You didn't get much rest these two days because you were making moon cakes in the restaurant. Don't scare yourself." Aunt Cao quickly spat twice and then stepped on it with her foot.

At this time, Goudan's mother, who was sitting next to him, suddenly asked, "You said you vomited because you smelled the fish just now?"

"Yeah." Lin Minjun was puzzled. "I used to love eating fish, but today I don't know what happened. I feel like vomiting when I smell fish."

Goudan's mother smiled and patted her shoulder, "Have you ever thought that you might be pregnant?"

"Impossible." Lin Minjun said immediately.

Aunt Cao also laughed, "Silly child, you are a newlywed couple, it's not impossible for you to get pregnant."

Lin Minjun looked at Goudan’s mother blankly.

She had seen so many famous doctors and taken so many folk remedies in her previous life, but her stomach was still fine. She hadn't done anything in her current life, so how could she be pregnant?

She is obviously infertile?

Aunt Cao brought another glass of water, signaled her not to worry, and asked carefully, "When did your period come? Did it come this month?"

"I came here at the beginning of last month," said Lin Minjun.

Aunt Cao: "It's already the beginning of the month."

Lin Minjun explained: "My menstruation has always been irregular. Sometimes it comes early and sometimes it's late. In the past, I didn't have my period for several months. It's nothing to worry about."

Aunt Cao then asked, "Have you been going to the toilet frequently recently, feeling sleepy often, always unable to wake up, and feeling particularly tired?"

Lin Minjun thought about it carefully, "I think I did. I always have to go to the toilet. I never got up at night before, but I always get up during this period. I thought it was because I was too busy and tired during this period."

Aunt Cao said, "I have given birth to three children, and you look like you are pregnant."

Goudan's mother nodded and pointed at the steel egg in her arms: "When I was pregnant with this kid, I had the same symptoms as you."

"Xiao Lin is probably really pregnant. I had the same symptoms when I was pregnant."

All the people sitting at the table were women, and they had all given birth to children. Looking at Lin Minjun's symptoms, they knew that she was most likely pregnant.

Someone immediately put down his chopsticks and congratulated Lin Minjun, "You should go to the hospital as soon as possible. I think you are pregnant. Don't forget to treat us to red eggs when you get there."

Someone else told me, "You must be careful in the first three months. You can't be too busy or tired. You must also be careful when you go out so you don't fall."

Everyone looked at Lin Minjun with a smile and congratulated her collectively.

The women around were all congratulating Lin Minjun, but Shen Hongyu was the only one who didn't say a word. She seemed to be stunned all of a sudden, staring blankly at Lin Minjun. Suddenly, she seemed to realize something, and she shook slightly, and the chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground.

****

Lin Minjun knew that she might be pregnant, and her mind was confused. She felt like she was walking on clouds, and she felt light and unreal.

She was stunned for a moment, suppressed her joy, turned to Aunt Xu and said, "Aunt Xu, I want to go to the hospital for a check-up. Can you go with me?"

"Of course. We're worried about you going out alone. I'll go with you after dinner." Aunt Xu agreed immediately.

After the birthday banquet was over, everyone helped Aunt Cao clean up. They swept the house, washed the dishes, and returned the borrowed dishes, chopsticks, tables, chairs and benches one by one. Soon the house was clean and no one could tell that a birthday banquet had just been held here.

After dinner, the hospital was not closed yet, so Lin Minjun took Aunt Xu to the hospital. They didn't dare to ride a bicycle and walked directly. Fortunately, the hospital was not far away and they arrived in just ten minutes.

When Lin Minjun arrived at the hospital, she first registered to see a doctor and said that she might be pregnant. The doctor then arranged for her to have blood drawn and a B-ultrasound.

"When will the result come out?" Lin Minjun asked the doctor.

The doctor smiled and said, "Don't worry. There's no point in being anxious. I estimate that the results will be out tomorrow. If you really can't wait, you can come and get the results tomorrow morning."

Lin Minjun suppressed her excitement and went back home with Aunt Xu.

When they got home, Yan Li just came back from get off work. Lin Minjun told him that she was pregnant, and Yan Li was stunned.

Lin Minjun asked, "What's wrong, brother? Don't you want a child? Or do you not like this child?"

Feelings of worry suddenly emerged, and Lin Minjun didn't know what was wrong with her. Her emotions seemed to be fluctuating greatly recently. Sometimes, even when there was nothing wrong, she just wanted to get angry and wanted to find an outlet to vent.

When she said this, her eyes turned red.

Yan Li quickly coaxed her, "How could I not like this child? I just... didn't expect it."

When Yan Li agreed not to have children, he was sincere. He felt that as long as two people love each other and can stay together until old age, it is enough. [Read novels on the official account: Jiuju tweets]

Now suddenly I hear that my lover is pregnant, I am naturally surprised and happy, and I don’t know how to react.

He coaxed Lin Minjun softly and pulled her to sit down on the chair.

Lin Minjun looked at him with red eyes, "If you didn't think of it, then you didn't think of it. Why are you standing there without saying anything? Or, you like boys and don't like girls. Are you afraid that I will give birth to a girl?"

Yan Li looked at her helplessly, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just didn't react at once. Ah Jun, you can't force a label on me. I like both boys and girls. I'd like you even if you lay an egg."

"You just laid an egg!" Lin Minjun was amused. "I'm not a chicken, how can I lay an egg?"

The emotion came and went quickly. After being coaxed into submission, Lin Minjun felt embarrassed again, thinking that she had been a little unreasonable just now.

She looked at Yan Li and said embarrassedly, "Brother, I didn't mean to get angry with you just now. I just feel that my mood has been a little off lately. I can't control it."

"Could it really be because of the pregnancy? I heard that pregnant women's hormone levels are unstable and their moods fluctuate," said Yan Li.

Lin Minjun widened her eyes, "Is there still such a saying?"

Because she had never been able to conceive in her previous life, she didn't want to know anything about this issue, for fear of being disappointed after learning about it.

Therefore, perhaps my understanding of this aspect is not as good as Yan Li's.

"I'm not sure, but there are some medical books in the study. I'll borrow a few of them later." Yan Li said, and went to the kitchen to boil water. After the water was heated, he washed Lin Minjun's feet and put her to bed. "Whether you are pregnant or not, you haven't had a good rest these two days. Go to bed early today and have a good rest. I will take a leave of absence tomorrow morning to accompany you to the hospital to get the results."

He sent Lin Minjun to bed and left. When Lin Minjun got out of bed to go to the bathroom, she took a look and saw him still reading in the study.

Lin Minjun was so excited that night that she didn't dare to turn over or cough while lying in bed, for fear that there really was a little life in her stomach and she might hurt it.

Finally, around nine o'clock, I managed to fall asleep.

The hospital opens at 8:30. Lin Minjun didn't wake up until 8 o'clock. After waking up, she found that Yan Li had already gotten up. She called out to him twice.

Yan Li walked in and said, "Get out of bed and wash up first. I just cooked some porridge and bought a salted duck egg. After we finish eating, we will go to the hospital."

Lin Minjun suppressed her excitement, ran out of bed, washed, ate breakfast, changed her clothes, and the couple prepared to walk to the hospital.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I heard a vomiting sound in the alley.

"Gee! Gee!"
