Chapter 207 Xia Mi is pregnant
After dinner in the evening, Xia Mi helped to clean up the dishes.
"Mom, let's go to the park tonight. We haven't been to the park for a long time. It's a good time to digest our food."
Xia Mi, who had just come out of the kitchen, froze in place when she heard this.
"Xiao Mi, are you going? There's a big park nearby. Now that it's installed with street lights, many people go for a walk there at night."
Xia Mi waved her hand and politely declined, "I won't go. I'm a little tired from shopping today. You guys go."
"Okay, you rest at home early, mom and I will go there."
Huo Jinying did not force it. Since Xia Mi fell asleep in the car in the afternoon, everyone could see that she was really tired.
"Jingchen, you have to come with us tonight." Huo Jinying called out to Huo Jingchen, who was standing beside her. "You're a soldier, you can't just say you're tired, right?"
"Don't deify us soldiers." Huo Jingchen said in a light tone.
He was still depressed about the topic he discussed with his mother this afternoon.
Is he really not capable of this?
Huo Jingchen thought of his second sister who was also studying medicine, and immediately changed his tone, "It's okay to go."
Huo Jinying sat on the sofa, looking at Huo Jingchen with a strange expression. Is this still the brother she knew? Is there any chance of changing his mind?
"Then I'll go upstairs first."
After saying hello, Xia Mi went upstairs, feeling extremely heavy.
Huo Jingchen and the other two went out and headed towards the park.
On the way, Zhao Min began to ask her daughter indirectly about men's health. "Jinying, didn't you tell me last time that your hospital has opened a men's health department? What does it do?"
"Mom, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
There's no smoke without fire. Huo Jinying inquired curiously, "Is it someone who's not good enough? Men's health is for gay men to treat their more intimate ailments, especially reproductive issues."
Huo Jingchen's face began to look unnatural.
Zhao Min laughed dryly and was too embarrassed to say directly that it was Huo Jingchen. She just wanted to know how to go and see.
"Who is it? Why don't you just ask him to come to me and I'll take someone over to take a look?"
Huo Jingchen's face darkened. "It's me."
These two short words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Huo Jinying speechless. She opened her mouth but no sound came out.
"you……"
Huo Jingchen lost his patience and couldn't save face. "I don't know the details, but I have to go and take a look."
"Go early tomorrow morning. There's no time to waste on this."
After Huo Jinying knew who it was, she thought about it and found it made sense. Huo Jingchen and Xia Mi had been married for so long, but there was still no sign of pregnancy.
Xia Mi is still young and doesn't seem to have any problems. On the other hand, her younger brother is older and was injured during the mission. No matter how you think about it, it seems that the latter has bigger problems.
"To be on the safe side, it would be best to ask Xiao Mi to come over and check both of you out."
Huo Jinying didn't mean anything else, she just felt from a doctor's perspective that this kind of thing couldn't be taken lightly.
"No need, I'll go." Huo Jingchen firmly believed that there was nothing wrong with Xia Mi.
"Yeah, Xiao Mi is still so young, right?"
"Mom, I'm saying this to be on the safe side. If Jingchen finds nothing wrong, then it must be Xiao Mi who has a problem. What are you going to do about this? Are you going to keep it a secret forever? Early detection means early treatment."
The mother and son felt that what Huo Jinying said made sense.
Huo Jingchen was worried that Xia Mi would overthink things, so he didn't agree immediately. "I'll go back and ask."
"Well, don't worry, Xiao Mi is not the kind of person with conservative ideas. Besides, with her conditions, there are still many people who want to remarry."
This statement hit Huo Jingchen's sore spot.
"Who said we should get divorced just because she can't have children?"
"Yeah, that's not what Xiao Mi thought. How can you, as the second sister, say such things? If Jingchen doesn't give birth, there's still your eldest brother and you. Give birth to two more and bring them to me to raise."
"Mom!" Huo Jinying said helplessly, "Are you kidding me? Your daughter-in-law is a human being, but I am not. Your words are so disheartening."
As soon as she finished speaking, Huo Jinying used this as a threat, "I don't care. You two have hurt my heart. You must buy me something when you go to the hospital tomorrow."
It turns out he was waiting here.
Zhao Min patted her daughter's back gently. "You wish! This isn't a big deal. Don't be too nervous."
"I saw you hesitating just now, it doesn't seem like a small matter."
Huo Jinying ruthlessly exposed her, "And you, you look like someone with a terminal illness, you look so strange to others."
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, or we can wait two days to see the doctor. It's not good to go to the hospital on New Year's Day."
"Why is it bad? I, your daughter, still have to be on duty at the hospital during the New Year." Huo Jinying snorted heavily, obviously dissatisfied with what she said.
Zhao Min thought about it and decided to ask Huo Jingchen to go to the hospital early tomorrow. She would not go herself to avoid arousing Xia Mi's suspicion.
After all, at this time, many women still believe that life will be complete only if they have a child.
No matter whose problem it was, Zhao Min was worried that Xia Mi would not be able to accept it.
She could see that Huo Jingchen really liked Xia Mi, and his eyes were always on her.
-
Lunar New Year's eve.
It was a rare sun-drenched day in the capital, so Xia Mi got up early. When she woke up, she felt her nose was a little blocked, and she was worried that she would catch a cold during the New Year.
When she went downstairs, Huo Jinying was no longer at home.
"Mom, where's Jingchen?"
When Xia Mi got up, there was no one around her. She slept soundly last night and didn't notice when he came back. She was alone when she woke up this morning.
"I sent your second sister to the hospital. She probably won't be back for a while."
No wonder both of them are away.
Xia Mi responded. After finishing breakfast, Xia Mi asked Zhao Min, "Mom, do you know where the nearby pharmacy is? I feel like I've caught a cold."
"You caught a cold. Is the quilt too thin? I'll ask Aunt Liu to add another quilt for you tonight."
"I'll take you to the clinic. Forget it, let's go directly to your second sister's hospital."
Xia Mi was slightly startled. "It's just a minor cold. No need to go to a big hospital. I'll buy some medicine to prevent it. I haven't caught a cold yet."
"Wait until I finish hooking this little thing I have and take you there."
After breakfast, Zhao Min sat on the sofa and knitted a sweater. She moved quickly and finished the row she was knitting quickly, then changed into a coat and went out.
Perhaps it was because the weather had cooled down during the Lunar New Year holiday, there were a lot of people in the clinic, and they were all coughing.
Xia Mi originally wanted to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine, but Zhao Min insisted that she go, saying that even a cold cannot be treated carelessly.
After arriving at the clinic, she saw this scene and asked Zhao Min to wait outside while she went in.
Zhao Min listened to the coughs that kept coming and going, and instantly backed away. She nodded and agreed with Xia Mi, "Stay away from them, don't get infected by them."
After Xia Mi agreed, she turned and entered the clinic.
The doctor asked a few routine questions, and Xia Mi answered them fluently, saying that she felt heavy and had symptoms of a minor cold.
The doctor, wearing a thick gauze mask, suddenly looked up at Xia Mi and asked her, "Are you married?"
"It's done."
The doctor nodded, "When was your last period?"
