Chapter 156 But now, the thought of possibly being pregnant...
The instructor's reaction was quite calm. He had been in this industry for many years and had seen far too many people vomit as soon as they first started driving and smelled gasoline.
Gasoline is something we don't encounter in everyday life, so it's perfectly normal to feel nauseous the first time you smell it.
Seeing that Tang Mingli seemed very shocked, he smiled and said, "It's okay, you'll get used to it after a while, and you won't feel nauseous anymore."
Tang Mingli was filled with anxiety; she actually hoped that she was in the situation her coach had described.
Another wave of gasoline smell hit me, this time making me feel even more nauseous and vomiting.
Sensing what was about to happen, Tang Mingli quickly unbuckled her seatbelt, got out of the car as if fleeing, and ran towards a secluded corner.
Before I could even stop walking, I actually threw up.
Having lived two lives, she had never experienced such intense vomiting.
Not only did I vomit up all the porridge I drank in the morning, but later I vomited yellow bile, and the vomiting still didn't stop.
Her throat was burning with stomach acid, and at that moment she desperately wished someone would hand her a bottle of ice water so she could rinse her mouth.
However, no.
She could only squat on the ground in agony and vomit violently.
The coach who came to check on her was startled by her intense reaction.
Having worked in this industry for so many years, he had never actually seen anyone vomit bile from smelling gasoline.
After Tang Mingli finally finished vomiting and buried the vomit, she stood up shakily.
The coach asked with a worried look, "Sir, are you sick?"
It's not an illness; how could a normal person vomit like that?
The coach became increasingly worried: "That won't do. If you're not feeling well, you should see a doctor first."
If something were to happen in his car, he would have a hard time explaining it.
"Get ill?"
Tang Mingli thought it was impossible; she had a thorough physical examination just six months ago and was perfectly healthy.
But vomiting like this...
She suddenly realized something, and her heart skipped a beat.
I resigned last month and came back. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and there were a couple of times when we didn't have time to take precautions.
Could it be...?
Tang Mingli was both surprised and delighted.
In my excitement, the nausea I had just suppressed surged up again.
Calm down, calm down.
It's best not to make wild guesses. Go to the hospital for a checkup first, so you don't get disappointed.
Tang Mingli immediately followed her coach's advice, took leave, and set off for the hospital.
The doctor should still be on duty by now, so there's still time.
As it turned out, it was indeed not too late.
She registered and went straight to the obstetrics and gynecology department.
After inquiring about the relevant circumstances, the doctor speculated that she was probably pregnant, but the final result would depend on the test results.
Unfortunately, the test results are not available on the same day and can take up to a week.
After leaving the hospital, Tang Mingli did not go home immediately.
Although the test results wouldn't be available for another week, she had a strong feeling that the baby was coming.
She was still a bit agitated at that moment, and her family would definitely notice something was wrong.
It's not that I don't want to tell my family the news, but I'm afraid that if the test results come back negative, the whole family will have to go through this kind of ups and downs together.
Tang Mingli subconsciously raised her hand and touched her stomach.
How strange, this place can actually nurture life.
That's amazing, she might be pregnant.
She had often heard people say that when the time is right, a child will come, but she never really understood it. But now that this destiny might be happening to her, she truly feels it.
I had surgery in Hong Kong several years ago, and it would be a lie to say that I had no hope for the arrival of my child.
It's a wonderful connection to any child.
Sometimes, the more you anticipate something, the more likely you are to be disappointed. It comes when you're not paying attention.
After leaving the hospital, Tang Mingli walked for about half an hour and saw a coffee shop in front of her. Thinking that she might be pregnant and shouldn't overexert herself, she went in and sat down to rest.
When I was about to order something to drink, I almost habitually asked for coffee, but then I remembered that I might be pregnant, so I immediately changed my mind and ordered a glass of juice instead, without ice.
Heaven knows she's a huge fan of cold drinks; she loves drinking iced beverages even in the dead of winter.
But now, just because she might be pregnant, she can suddenly change her eating habits that she's had for two lifetimes.
The motivation that children bring to people is incredibly strong.
After resting for a while in the coffee shop, Tang Mingli felt hungry again.
In the past, I would have just grabbed something to eat at a coffee shop to fill my stomach.
But now, thinking that I might be pregnant and need to be careful about my diet, I've decided to have a meal at a nicer Chinese restaurant.
Fortunately, there were plenty of places to eat on this street, and after walking a few steps, she spotted a Chinese restaurant that looked quite nice.
In the past, we would definitely order whatever was delicious.
But now, when she thinks about the possibility of pregnancy, she tries her best to consider a balanced diet and light, stomach-friendly foods when looking at menus.
After lunch, things finally calmed down, and I felt sleepy.
In the past, even if I was tired, I would have thought that since I was already out, I would definitely do some shopping before going back.
But now, considering the possibility of pregnancy, I've decided to go home and rest properly.
If you are indeed pregnant, it would only be about a month, which is still an unstable period.
Thinking of this, she didn't dare to squeeze with others when queuing for the bus.
Fortunately, at this time, there weren't many people taking the bus towards the compound.
Tang Mingli found a seat by the window and began to think about how to spend the week waiting for the results.
I'm not going to the driving school for now. I can't stand the smell of gasoline, and I wouldn't be able to learn there anyway.
If your family asks, just say that the driving school is currently overcrowded and can't accommodate everyone for the time being.
She had another calligraphy class, and since it was just sitting there practicing calligraphy, she thought it shouldn't be a problem.
Yes, you need to be careful about what you wear, especially your shoes; you need to wear non-slip ones.
What else didn't I think of?
Having lived two lives, both as an unmarried and childless woman, and having never paid much attention to this kind of knowledge, Tang Mingli's mind was truly blank.
Fortunately, she quickly realized that she was overthinking things because she was too nervous.
There's no need to worry unnecessarily. The doctor said she's very healthy, and as long as she doesn't do strenuous exercise or fall, there shouldn't be any problems.
For the remainder of the journey, Tang Mingli successfully restrained her wild thoughts and returned to the path of reason.
When she got home, she was just like usual.
When Madam Fu saw her return at this hour, she said with concern, "Learning to drive must have been tiring."
Tang Mingli smiled and shook her head: "It's not hard work."
Madam Fu asked again, "What did you learn today?"
Feeling guilty, Tang Mingli could only make something up based on her driving lessons in her previous life.
"It's nothing much, I just learned about cars and drove for a while."
However, when the old lady heard that they had driven a short distance, she immediately praised them, saying, "Wow, you can drive a short distance on the first day. You learn so quickly!"
"The coach is sitting next to me."
Feeling guilty for lying, Tang Mingli quickly changed the subject, saying, "Grandma, I'm a little sweaty and sleepy, so I'm going upstairs to take a shower and go to bed."
When Madam Fu heard that she was tired, she quickly said, "Go upstairs and rest."
She added at the end, "Did you have a full lunch? I asked Guihua to steam a basket of buns. You can have some if you're hungry."
"I'm not hungry, Grandma."
Since she wasn't hungry, Madam Fu didn't say anything more.
After watching Tang Mingli go upstairs, he also felt sleepy and went back to his room for a nap.
Tang Mingli wanted to take a shower as soon as she went upstairs.
But when changing into slippers, I subconsciously checked the soles of the slippers and even rubbed them on the ground a couple of times with my hands.
I only installed it after confirming that the anti-slip function was excellent.
Normally, she would definitely turn on the air conditioner in the room before taking a shower and lower the temperature to cool it down quickly.
But that's not happening now.
The temperature is too low; it's easy to catch a cold right after taking a shower.
She should wait until her body is dry before letting her temperature drop slowly.
I took a change of clothes into the bathroom and turned on the water heater.
As the hot water poured over her body, Tang Mingli thought of something else.
It's not like before, where you could just take a half-hour shower whenever you wanted.
So instead of enjoying a relaxing shower as usual, she simply rinsed herself off, changed into clean clothes, and came out of the bathroom.
Tang Mingli turned on the air conditioner only after she was about to lie down in bed.
Having just taken a hot shower, lying on the soft bed, my body quickly relaxed, and I soon fell into a deep sleep.
However, before losing consciousness, she remembered what the doctor had said: if you are pregnant, you will be particularly sleepy.
But she sleeps too much, so it's impossible to judge her based on that alone.
-
Tang Mingli slept for a long time and showed no signs of waking up until 3 p.m.
While she was sleeping soundly, Fu Ci called back, and it was Old Madam Fu who answered.
Madam Fu knew what her son was thinking, but considering that her granddaughter-in-law was tired from learning to drive today, she couldn't bear to wake her up, so she could only persuade her grandson to be patient.
Hearing his grandmother's words, Fu Ci had no choice but to explain: "Grandma, I just took advantage of a little free time to call home and check on everyone."
He emphasized everyone.
Madam Fu snorted and said, "Do you think I've lived this long for nothing?"
If it weren't for Mingli, would her precious grandson call home so frequently?
Before I got married, I did go on business trips, but I rarely had to call home in a hurry.
Of course, they weren't jealous.
We've all been young, we understand.
She said to her grandson over the phone, "Grandma understands."
Fu Ci was truly at a loss for words, and when he called home, he was unexpectedly teased.
But since he's the junior, he can only accept it.
After chatting for a while, Fu Ci became busy.
Before hanging up, Madam Fu couldn't resist making one last joke: "Don't worry, when Mingli wakes up, I'll tell her you called back."
Fu Ci could only smile helplessly once again.
The longer Grandma spends with Mingli, the more mischievous she becomes.
Thinking of this, Fu Ci didn't even realize that he was laughing to himself.
When the assistant came in and saw him smiling so happily, he immediately guessed that the call must have been to his family, and most likely his wife.
I thought to myself, "Great! I really hope the boss calls home every day before starting work. I hope he won't be too angry about what I'm about to report."
