“I remember when Madam was pregnant, she was like this. At that time, Madam couldn’t smell the smell of fish. Once when Madam came home, we cooked a fish dish, and Madam immediately vomited.”
After hearing what Zhang Junan said, the old man suddenly realized what was going on.
It seems that there really is such a thing.
At the time, he thought his daughter-in-law was just delicate and had gotten an upset stomach from eating something bad in the countryside.
He was terrified.
Later I found out that my daughter-in-law was pregnant.
His wife died young and didn't know these things. He only found out later by asking people in his village.
Now, my granddaughter is the same way, could it be...?
Xia Anyan took a sip of water and felt better. Then, with a dark expression, she looked at the two of them.
She hesitated, as if she wanted to say something.
When the old man saw his granddaughter looking like this, he thought she was frightened, so he quickly comforted her, "Yanyan, don't be afraid. Although that boy Ashen isn't here right now, your dad and I are here, and we will take good care of you. Nothing will happen to you."
Xia Anyan's lips twitched.
Was she worried that something bad might happen?
"Grandpa, what I really wanted to say is that I'm not pregnant, so please don't overthink it." Xia Anyan was also a little helpless, and even after saying this, she felt somewhat tired.
But the old man and Zhang Jun'an simply didn't believe it. If she wasn't pregnant, why would she be vomiting?
It's common knowledge that vomiting only occurs during pregnancy. Why would someone who isn't pregnant vomit? They haven't eaten anything bad.
Seeing that the two of them still looked unwilling to believe it, Xia Anyan's lips twitched, and she pointed to the plate of braised pork: "Dad, didn't you ever think that it was because your braised pork was too greasy? We've been traveling for so many days, and I haven't had any oil in my stomach. That's why I feel nauseous and want to vomit when I see that stuff?"
Xia Anyan had already made herself very clear, just in case the two of them didn't understand.
But the old man and Zhang Jun'an still felt that she was being sarcastic.
I also wondered if she was too young to understand these things.
Xia Anyan took a deep breath, feeling like crying: "Okay, since you don't believe me, let's go to the military hospital for a check-up tomorrow."
She had originally planned to use Gu Shen's identity to give Grandpa Xia and Zhang Jun'an a physical examination after arriving here.
The old man had been living in the countryside and his health wasn't very good. Although the doctor in Beijing said that as long as his previous illness was cured, there wouldn't be any problems, she was still very worried.
After taking the medicine for so long, she wanted to know if there were any signs of recovery. Only if she could see good news could she continue to treat the old man.
As for Zhang Jun'an, although there's nothing wrong with his health, we still need to see how well he absorbed the medicine she forced him to take. It's good that they're getting checked together this time; that will reveal the problem.
Neither of them refused Xia Anyan's suggestion.
Go check it out; checking it out will put their minds at ease.
Because Xia Anyan really didn't want to see that plate of braised pork, the old man simply removed it from the table.
Fortunately, Comrade Xiao Tian managed to snag a big bone, and with that big bone, Zhang Jun'an even made a bone broth that night.
There was only a little bit of oil floating on top of the bone broth, but Xia Anyan didn't feel nauseous at all, and even drank two big bowls of it.
"Yanyan, get some rest early tonight. We'll go for a checkup tomorrow morning," Grandpa Xia reminded her before going to bed.
Xia Anyan nodded helplessly: "Okay, I understand, Grandpa. Don't worry."
After watching the old man and Zhang Jun'an return to their room, Xia Anyan went back herself.
They slept soundly without any dreams, and the next morning they all got up early.
Sun Xiuzhi was quite surprised to see that the family had gotten up so early.
"Uncle Xia, Brother Xia, why are you up so early?" Sun Xiuzhi got up to make breakfast and then saw Grandpa Xia and Zhang Jun'an standing in the courtyard.
She only knew that Zhang Jun'an was Xia Anyan's father, but she didn't know his surname, so she always called him Brother Xia.
Zhang Jun'an didn't intend to explain. Only in this way could everyone believe that he was Xia Anyan's biological father, and not know that he was just a godfather.
Xia Anyan's identity is already eye-catching enough. If she were to bring a godfather to live in the family compound, people would talk a lot of dirty talk about her behind her back.
Zhang Junan smiled and said, "We just arrived, so we thought we'd get up early and wander around the residential compound."
"Also, my father's health isn't very good. We'd heard that the doctors at the military hospital here are very skilled, so we were thinking of taking him there for a checkup."
Sun Xiuzhi is a very outgoing person. After what happened yesterday, she considered Xia Anyan as her good friend.
Upon hearing that they were going for a check-up, she immediately patted her chest and said, "Oh, I know that area well, I'll take you there."
Her proactive attitude left Zhang Junan somewhat at a loss for how to respond.
Xia Anyan just woke up, and when she heard Sun Xiuzhi offer to take them there, she naturally didn't refuse.
She grabbed a handful of fruit candies and shoved them into Sun Xiuzhi's hand: "Sister-in-law Sun, take these and sweeten your mouth."
When Sun Xiuzhi saw how generous she was, her eyes lit up.
She just said she wanted to take Xia Anyan to the health center because she wanted to chat with Xia Anyan.
After all, she's the regimental commander's wife. If she can build a good relationship with Xia Anyan, it will definitely help her husband's future promotion.
Unexpectedly, Xia Anyan was so generous, bringing her so many things at once.
Although these fruit candies aren't as expensive as White Rabbit milk candies, they're still quite rare, especially in their compound, a place with many children, where it's rather difficult to buy candy.
There was more sincerity on her face.
"Oh my, girl, look at you, why are you giving me so many nice things? I..."
Xia Anyan smiled at her: "Sister-in-law, just take what's here. I brought it from my hometown. It's too sweet for me to finish. I'm so happy that you can help me with some."
Xia Anyan is also quite talkative, and the two of them can actually have a good chat when they get together.
They walked together toward the military hospital, seeing many people along the way.
Wherever Xia Anyan passes by, people always stop and stare, seemingly discussing her, but no one goes up to greet her.
Sun Xiuzhi could tell what those people were thinking when she saw how they looked at Xia Anyan. She rolled her eyes and didn't offer to introduce them.
In my heart, I also felt that those people were blind and had something wrong with their brains.
