Monday morning, at the entrance of the B-ultrasound room of Zongxiao People’s Hospital.
Su Tiantian, sitting on a chair in the waiting area, looked at the number paper and saw that there were still six people waiting before his turn. So he said to Liu Liangjie, who was sitting next to him, "Dad, please come with me for the prenatal checkup."
Liu Liangjie said: "I hope you don't despise me as an old man."
Su Tiantian dared to joke with Liu Liangjie: "An old man who is pursued by many middle-aged women who want to marry him? I heard that last month a girl younger than me said she liked you very much. There are also women in my company who want to find out about you."
Liu Liangjie sneered, "Not only am I younger than you, I'm also prettier than you, better at spending money than you, and better at coaxing people. I'm looking to help Brother Zhao recruit a secretary, not a lover, much less a wife. The person a friend brought to the dinner party only met me once and said he liked me very much. Do you believe it?"
Su Tiantian said, "It seems your friend is quite thoughtful."
Liu Liangjie said in a deep voice: "He said his relative wanted to find a job. So he wanted me to spend money to coax young girls. It would be better to leave it to Jingze. If I wanted to remarry, I wouldn't have to wait until now."
Su Tiantian said hesitantly, "With your conditions, if you say you want to remarry, many people are willing to be your matchmakers. Brother Jing said he wouldn't interfere in your affairs, but I know that as my daughter-in-law, I shouldn't say these things to you."
Liu Liangjie said, "What's there to keep secret between family members? I know you've heard a lot of gossip. Just focus on your pregnancy. I won't let Jingze or you suffer any injustice."
Su Tiantian said: "I am not wronged. I have you and Brother Jing to protect me. Look, many women who came to do NT today came alone, and I, Brother Jing is not free, so I asked you to accompany me. I know that if you don't come, I will ask others to accompany me."
Liu Liangjie said: "When we gave birth before, there weren't so many checkups. Now we focus on eugenics and good parenting. We follow the pregnancy health manual for checkups. In short, we just follow whatever the doctor says."
"Please ask No. 10 Su Tiantian to go to Ultrasound Room 3 for examination." The broadcast sounded.
"Please ask No. 10 Su Tiantian to go to B-ultrasound Room 3 for examination."
"Dad, I'll go in first." Su Tiantian stood up and walked towards Ultrasound Room 3.
About 20 minutes later, Su Tiantian came out. Liu Liangjie hurried to meet her, but after thinking for a while, he supported her left arm.
Su Tiantian said: "Dad, I'm fine. The doctor said that I can get the report in 10 minutes and then see an obstetrician and gynecologist."
Liu Liangjie said: "Then sit down and take a rest first."
Su Tiantian received the early pregnancy NT test report and looked at it carefully.

Su Tiantian said, "Dad, the report is out and it doesn't look like there's any problem. Let's go find Director Wu."
Liu Liangjie said, "Okay."
As soon as Director Wu saw Liu Liangjie, he took the initiative to greet him: "Mr. Liu, you are here."
Liu Liangjie said, "Good morning, Director Wu. My son is on a business trip, so I came here with my daughter-in-law."
Director Wu said, "Please take a seat, Mr. Liu. Please take a seat as well, pregnant woman. Let me take a look at your report first. You can keep the paper report in the health care handbook. I can just look at the computer."
Director Wu carefully read the report, then looked up and said, "The normal range of NT values is usually less than 2.5-3.0mm. The test results are good. You should have regular follow-up examinations. Come back at 16 weeks for the Down syndrome screening. I will tell you the precautions."
Su Tiantian said: "Okay, thank you Director Wu."
Director Wu said: "The day before the Down syndrome screening, do not eat at night and ensure that you have been fasting for at least eight hours. You can eat breakfast after the blood is drawn. The blood test results will usually be available in about a week."
Liu Liangjie looked a little embarrassed. "That's quite tiring. Is this examination necessary?"
Director Wu was a little stunned. This didn't seem too strenuous to her, just drawing blood on an empty stomach. So she said, "This test is recommended, and it's best if someone accompanies you to take care of you. You can bring breakfast and eat it immediately after the blood draw."
Su Tiantian said, "Hello, Director Wu. I'd like to ask, I've heard some people say that it's possible to skip the Down syndrome screening and go directly to non-invasive DNA testing?"
Director Wu said, "You should do the Down syndrome screening first. If there are any problems, then consider non-invasive DNA testing. In fact, in general, non-invasive DNA testing is not recommended for some twins."
