Chapter 41 Chapter 41 I can still support my wife and children...
Su Yan's face darkened. "Dahua's mom, my sister-in-law and I separated a long time ago. We're not family anymore." She locked the door. Dahua's mom followed her out and asked, "Yingzi, how about I go with you to find your sister-in-law? Your sister-in-law's family is pretty mean."
Su Yan didn't answer, but rode away on her bike. When she arrived at her workplace, she called the factory security department. "Hey, Uncle Song, someone broke into our house and took away our food coupons, money, and the cornmeal we bought at the beginning of the month. Our neighbor next door said it was my sister-in-law who did it. You know we've split up, and what she did is simply robbery."
Su Yan's tone was clearly filled with anger. Uncle Song, the head of the Security Department, quickly said, "Don't worry, I'll investigate. The security department is responsible for the safety of our factory's employee dormitories."
At this time, people who commit petty thefts generally ask their factory's security department to handle the matter first, and the security department will then decide whether to call the police.
Su Yan put down the phone after receiving the assurance. Her face showed a cold expression, and she did not seem anxious at all.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Zhanwu called and said, "Take the whole afternoon off. I'll come and pick you up to go to the hospital."
Su Yan was a little worried: "There are so many people in the hospital, what if someone sees us?"
Qin Zhanwu said, "The doctor is an acquaintance and won't tell anyone. Let's go in through the staff dormitory at the back. There won't be many people there."
Su Yan said okay and hung up the phone, her heart pounding, just like when she was called on by the teacher in high school to answer a question that she had no idea how to answer. But this time she was going to see a doctor and wait for the final judgment.
Su Yan called Director Lin and said that she had something to do at home and had to go back early.
Just as she walked downstairs with her purse, she saw Qin Zhanwu driving up. Su Yan got in the car and frowned: "Wouldn't it be too conspicuous? Or should we go by bike?"
Qin Zhanwu, his hand still bandaged, turned the car around and drove out of the factory. "It's okay. If anyone sees me, I'll just say my hand was injured and I'll go to the hospital to get it bandaged." He then took out a piece of letter paper and said, "I've already written the marriage report. Please take a look at your family and work situation. Is there anything wrong? If there is no problem, I will submit it tomorrow."
Su Yan took it and saw the elegant words on it. She read it and whispered, "You should go see a doctor first. If you're not pregnant, there's no need to get married."
After hearing this, Qin Zhanwu glared at Su Yan and cursed, "Bullshit!" He then warned her, "No matter what the result is, pregnant or not, the marriage is final. If you don't want to, I will ask your leaders to do some ideological work on you. If your director can't convince you, I will ask your factory secretary to do it. If you refuse to do something amicable and have the best of both worlds, don't blame me for not giving you face when the time comes."
Su Yan listened silently, tilting her head and looking at him for a long time.
Qin Zhanwu snorted coldly: "If you have something to say, just say it."
Su Yan asked, "Why do you seem like a different person? Or was your good temper all fake?"
Qin Zhanwu glanced at Su Yan and said, "I'm being nice to you, but do you listen? No matter how good my temper is, it will be worn out by you." Su Yan felt that she could not refute him. If she were Qin Zhanwu, she would definitely have no patience.
Arriving at the family building of the municipal hospital, the security guard who entered from the back seemed to recognize Qin Zhanwu and did not stop him, but politely opened the door. As expected, there were few people at the back door of the hospital. After going around from the inpatient department, they arrived at the outpatient department. Qin Zhanwu seemed to have been there once before. He took Su Yan up to the second floor with a familiar look and pushed open the door of the clinic and went in.
Inside was a female doctor in her fifties, wearing glasses. When she saw Qin Zhanwu, she smiled and called him, "Maomao is here. I usually ask you to come to my house for dinner on the weekend, but you always say you're busy." Then she glanced at Su Yan and said, "I don't think you're very busy."
Qin Zhanwu forced a smile: "Aunt Jiang, please stop teasing me. Please take a look at her first. She hasn't been feeling well these past few days."
Perhaps Qin Zhanwu had already told her over the phone, so the doctor smiled and didn't ask Su Yan's name. He just asked her to sit down, stretched out his hand to feel her pulse, and then asked her, "When was your last period?"
Su Yan thought for a moment and said, "October 3rd."
Doctor Jiang calculated and nodded, "That's almost forty days." He then asked her, "Do you have any nausea, chest tightness, or drowsiness?"
Su Yan replied: "A little bit."
Doctor Jiang quickly wrote down the medical instructions and asked, "How's your appetite?"
Su Yan said: "Not as good as before."
Doctor Jiang shook his head. "That won't do. You have to eat more when you're pregnant. In the past, eggs and pork were essential nutrients, but now is a difficult time, so you can't afford so much. You should still eat more cornmeal steamed buns."
Su Yan's heart dropped to the bottom, but she didn't give up and asked, "Are you really pregnant? Could it be a false pregnancy?"
Doctor Jiang raised his head and smiled, "You know a lot, girl. You know what the symptoms of a false pregnancy are. Your symptoms and pulse are pretty close to the truth. If you're really worried, I'll give you a blood test."
He scribbled a few words on the medical order sheet, tore it off and handed it to Qin Zhanwu: "Go and pay."
Qin Zhanwu went out. Doctor Jiang didn't call the nurse and drew Su Yan's blood himself. "The results will be out tomorrow. You don't have to go alone. Just ask Maomao to call."
Then he asked in a warm tone, "When are you and Maomao planning to get married? You can't put it off."
…………
When Su Yan came out of the hospital, she felt completely exhausted. When she got into the car, she felt like a frost-bitten eggplant.
Qin Zhanwu held a pile of medicine in his hand and said, "Go back and take it according to the instructions."
Su Yan took a look and saw a small white bottle with Vitamin B9 written on it. She looked very worried and said, "I don't want to have children. Why should I have children in my twenties?"
Qin Zhanwu ignored her and said, "You're in your twenties and you don't have a child. When do you want to have one? There are many girls in the countryside who have children at seventeen or eighteen."
Seeing that Qin Zhanwu didn't seem willing to negotiate or compromise, Su Yan put the matter aside for the time being. After all, the child was in her belly.
Qin Zhanwu saw through Su Yan's plan at a glance and warned her: "Don't think about going to the hospital to get an abortion when I'm not paying attention. Not to mention that you are not married now, even if you are married, you can't have an abortion casually. You have to ask your family for their opinion."
Su Yan threw the bottle of medicine over: "Hey, you said it yourself that morning. If we have a child, I will inform you. Even if it means having an abortion and not wanting the child, you agreed."
Qin Zhanwu reached out and took the medicine bottle, placing it on the dashboard, denying the idea. "I'm saying, if you have a child, you should get married first, no matter what. I didn't say I support you in having an abortion. It's only been forty days, it's still a life, after all. Lu Yingzi, how can you be so cruel?"
Su Yan rolled her eyes and tilted her head to the side in anger: "Stop using moral blackmail. Women have the right to reproduce and the freedom to do so. This is a right granted by the Constitution."
Qin Zhanwu stopped the car and said, "According to the Criminal Law, if someone seduces a young man, or seduces a foreigner, and engages in sexual relations with him, and causes serious consequences in society, he should be sentenced for hooliganism."
Su Yan was furious when she heard this: "Who seduced you? Hooliganism is an evil law!" After saying that, she took her bag, slammed the car door, and got out.
This place is not far from home. Walk forward about a hundred or eighty steps and you will reach the entrance of the alley. Going further will be Su Yan's home in Xiaoheyan.
Qin Zhanwu drove slowly, following Su Yan. Once they entered the alley, he stopped the car and caught up with her. "I'll submit the marriage report tomorrow. You should also write one and submit it to the Party Committee and Committee of your unit. After we go through the formalities, we'll get this done."
Su Yan remained silent, quite resistant. After entering the house, Qin Zhanwu realized that the room was in a mess. "What's going on? Is there a thief?"
Su Yan sat down, poured a glass of water, and drank it by herself: "My sister-in-law took advantage of my business trip to the countryside and brought her family to search our house inside and out. She took away all the food coupons, money, and grain."
Qin Zhanwu took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, gathered everything together, and put them in order: "I'll take care of this matter."
Su Yan believed that he would handle other matters, but she didn't think that Qin Zhanwu, wearing a military uniform, would be so shameless as to take advantage of Lu Yingzi's sister-in-law. She would cry, make a fuss, and even threaten to commit suicide. She would roll on the ground after just three sentences, singing and crying, saying that you bullied her. Su Yan didn't think that Qin Zhanwu would be so ashamed to do so in his military uniform, and he could not take advantage of Lu Yingzi's sister-in-law.
Su Yan was just taking this for granted. She didn't know that in fact, people like Lu Yingzi's sister-in-law were very aware of the current situation and knew exactly who she could throw a tantrum in front of and who she couldn't.
Su Yan waited until he finished his work, asked him to sit down, and decided to persuade him with both emotion and reason: "It's not that I don't want to have a baby. It's a difficult time now. Everyone doesn't have enough food. We only eat one steamed bun for every meal in our factory. It can't guarantee nutrition, and the baby will not be healthy. In addition to this, I have to take care of Yan Zi and Xiao Gang. If I have another child, not to mention whether I can take care of the baby, I really can't take care of three children." Anyway, whether she gives birth to the child or gets an abortion, the marriage is settled, and Su Yan had to settle for the second best.
Qin Zhanwu remained unmoved: "Don't worry, I can still support my wife and children."
Su Yan smiled apologetically and said, "I know you can afford it. It's my fault. I've never given birth to a child, so I don't know what to do after I give birth." Then she tricked Qin Zhanwu into giving birth, "Anyway, I won't take care of a child that young. If you insist on having a baby, then I'll let you take care of it after it's born."
Qin Zhanwu snorted coldly: "Is there no mother in the world who can't breastfeed her child?"
Su Yan curled her lips. "Every mammal in the world will breastfeed their children, but what makes us human and different from animals is not just feeding us milk. Everyone is born the same, except for those born with congenital diseases. If parents can't educate their children, can't make them healthy and happy, and make them happy and enjoy life, then what right do we have to bring them into this world?"
