Chapter 53 Are you preparing for pregnancy?
"Don't worry about it. I asked you to contact Mr. Yu for me before. Have you got any news?"
Mr. Yu is a retired traditional Chinese medicine doctor and a famous gynecologist, but his whereabouts are elusive and difficult to find. Mr. Yu and Mr. Cen are fishing friends. When Cen Xihuai learned that Xu Qingwu had abdominal pain during menstruation, he asked Mr. Cen to keep an eye on it for him.
Mr. Cen said sarcastically, "Your wife is not here, so what does it matter whether you can contact her or not?"
Cen Xihuai put down his chopsticks and prepared to leave.
I don't know who this boring vibe came from. Old Master Cen said unhappily, "Old Yu is in Yu Hall on Saturday."
Cen Xihuai: "Thank you, I will bring your daughter-in-law back for dinner tomorrow."
Mr. Cen: "You'd better have this ability."
…
After Xu Qingwu and Xia Xiaoxiao finished eating the crayfish, they each drank a glass and emptied the white wine bottle back and forth.
While Xia Xiaoxiao was taking a shower, Xu Qingwu was lying on the windowsill enjoying the fresh air. At this moment, her cell phone vibrated. It was a call from Cen Xihuai.
"Qingwu, it's been three days."
Xu Qingwu thought of what she had said to Cen Xihuai about the next two or three days: "I'll go home tomorrow."
"I'm here to pick you up and take you somewhere."
"Where are you going?"
"You'll find out tomorrow."
"All right."
"Send me your location and message me when you wake up tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll hang up then?"
"Um."
Xu Qingwu hung up the phone and found Xia Xiaoxiao sitting in front of the dressing table, drying her hair.
"Just spoke to your husband on the phone?"
Xu Qingwu nodded and sent the location to Cen Xihuai.
"Your conversation is a bit too stiff. Don't most couples say things like kiss, baby, hug, good night, etc.?"
"We are husband and wife, not lovers."
"It's even more erotic for a married couple. I really can't understand it. How can you still be so unfamiliar after having done it?"
Xu Qingwu didn't want to pay attention to her: "Sleep."
Xia Xiaoxiao reminded: "Turn off all the alarms on your phone and put them on silent mode so as not to disturb me."
Xu Qingwu yawned: "Don't worry, Miss."
Because of the alcohol, Xu Qingwu and Xia Xiaoxiao slept until noon.
Xu Qingwu woke up in a daze and was shocked when she saw the time on her phone. She remembered that Cen Xihuai said he would send him a message when he woke up.
She quickly turned on the mobile network and sent a message to Cen Xihuai: "I'm awake."
Cen Xihuai replied almost instantly: "I'm downstairs."
Xu Qingwu gently pushed open the window and saw the Bentley surrounded by a crowd of people downstairs.
She closed the window again, ordered takeout for Xia Xiaoxiao, washed up very quietly, opened the door and went downstairs.
Xu Qingwu got in the car, fastened his seatbelt, and asked Cen Xihuai, "Have you been waiting long?"
"No."
"Where are you taking me?"
"See an old Chinese doctor."
Xu Qingwu's face instantly fell, and she asked nervously, "Why are you seeing an old Chinese doctor? Are you trying to get pregnant? Didn't we agree on this..."
"Don't be nervous." Cen Xihuai interrupted her endless thoughts, "You had a lot of pain during your last menstrual period. The old man fishing friend is an expert in this area. Let's see if he can cure it."
Xu Qingwu breathed a sigh of relief, but was also embarrassed by the word "preparing for pregnancy".
Why does she always fail in front of Cen Xihuai...
Yu Tang sat in a quiet suburban courtyard far away from the city. The two of them walked through a quiet path lined with bushes and passed a bamboo forest before reaching their destination.
In the old house, Mr. Yu was taking a woman's pulse, and after the diagnosis, he personally prescribed and weighed the medicine for her.
The whole room was filled with the strong smell of Chinese medicine.
Xu Qingwu pulled Cen Xihuai's sleeve and asked in a low voice: "Why don't we go? I'm afraid of taking Chinese medicine."
Cen Xihuai soothed in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid."
Xu Qingwu felt uneasy when she saw those brown and yellow medicinal herbs. She was dissatisfied with his nonchalant attitude and said, "Of course you're not afraid. It's not like you're drinking it! You don't have to suffer!"
Cen Xihuai said calmly: "Because I don't feel any pain."
Xu Qingwu: "..."
After seeing the patient out, Mr. Yu came forward with a smile.
Cen Xihuai greeted him politely: "Mr. Yu, my wife is Xu Qingwu."
Xu Qingwu also called out obediently: "Hello, Mr. Yu."
Mr. Yu sighed, "You're already married in the blink of an eye. Just a few months ago, your dad and I were worried about you while we were fishing, and now you've quietly found such a beautiful wife."
Cen Xihuai said politely: "I am very lucky."
After the greetings, Mr. Yu asked the two why they came and asked Xu Qingwu to sit down.
After carefully feeling her pulse, Elder Yu asked, "Besides menstrual pain, do you also have irregular menstruation?"
"Well, the date is not accurate either."
"My diagnosis is polycystic ovary syndrome. I can go to the hospital to have a blood test for six sex hormones to confirm it."
Xu Qingwu saw the notebook in front of Mr. Yu, which recorded the condition of each patient. The diagnosis record of the woman who just left read: polycystic ovary syndrome, infertility.
Xu Qingwu didn't understand this and asked directly, "Can't you get pregnant if you have polycystic ovary syndrome?"
Yu Lao laughed and said, "Don't overthink it. Many people today are in sub-health. Polycystic ovary syndrome is very common among women. It's just that the probability of pregnancy is generally lower, but there are also many who get pregnant with twins. It depends on the individual. Just stay in a good mood and exercise well."
Xu Qingwu said "oh" and looked at Cen Xihuai involuntarily. His face was calm and no one knew what he was thinking.
After the diagnosis, Mr. Yu prescribed a course of Chinese medicine for Xu Qingwu and handed it to her in a simple paper bag.
Xu Qingwu looked embarrassed. To be honest, she didn't want to take the test. Compared to suffering pain for a few days a month and taking Chinese medicine for a month, she would rather endure it. If the pain was really severe, an ibuprofen pill could solve it.
Cen Xihuai reached out to take it for her, and wrote down the dietary restrictions and precautions during the medication period in his memo.
The two thanked him and said goodbye, but were kept by Mr. Yu.
"Let's finish lunch before leaving. It's already dinner time."
"I won't bother you any more."
"Don't be polite with an old man like me. I caught two three-pound black carp this morning and I'm worried I won't be able to eat them all."
Cen Xihuai understood his implication. The point was not to invite them to dinner, but to show off his achievements.
The basic operation of a fisherman.
Cen Xihuai followed his thoughts and said, "You are better than my dad. He is always in the air force."
Mr. Yu was delighted by his coaxing: "Hahahahahahaha, we must eat here before leaving. I'll ask the kitchen to add a few more dishes!"
Unable to refuse the kind invitation, Cen Xihuai and Xu Qingwu stayed to have lunch with Mr. Yu.
Mr. Yu went to the kitchen to make arrangements and let Cen Xihuai and Xu Qingwu stroll around the garden on their own.
Since the host was not at home, the two of them did not want to move around rudely, so they sat down in the pavilion outside the room.
"It's quite quiet here."
"Well, the air in the suburbs is good."
There was a lake under the pavilion. Xu Qingwu leaned against the wooden railing in a daze when he suddenly saw a school of very small fish, black in color and the size of a thumb. There seemed to be about a hundred of them.
"There are fish!"
Cen Xihuai walked to her side and leaned over to look down.
"There are golden koi over there, look!" Xu Qingwu turned back happily and almost bumped into Cen Xihuai's arms, their eyes meeting.
She took an awkward step back.
Cen Xihuai coughed lightly.
The two people who had not had any intimate behavior for a few days suddenly felt a little awkward.
At this moment, a clear female voice came from behind: "Fourth Brother!"
