Su Ying and Gu Sinian quietly hid in a deserted alley, then slipped into the spatial dimension.
Upon entering the herbal medicine room, Su Ying looked at the pile of rare and precious herbs and scratched her head, muttering to herself.
What should I give as a gift?
Gu Sinian was also in a dilemma. Giving something too expensive would attract attention, while giving something ordinary would be embarrassing. He didn't have any good ideas, but he still made some suggestions.
"Why not send two century-old ginseng roots and some Dendrobium officinale? My father-in-law carried out so many missions, big and small, when he was young, he must have had a lot of hidden injuries. Eating some Dendrobium officinale can help him recover."
That's true. The fact that her father was able to climb to his current position through his own abilities shows just how capable he is.
After going on so many missions, it's inevitable to have injuries of all sizes.
"I'll listen to you. Ginseng is for Grandpa and Grandma to nourish their bodies, Dendrobium officinale is for Dad to improve his health, and then there's Uncle's family... They have the most people, eleven of them, it's a big family... What should we give them?"
"You don't need to send gifts to the younger generation or those of the same generation as you for now. You can think about what to send when you meet them. Packages that are too big are not easy to send. You only need to think about things for the elders."
Su Ying counted on her fingers, "We've got gifts for Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma, but we don't know what they like or what to give them."
This is a problem. Su Ying looked around at the medicinal herbs in the room, not knowing what to send.
Gu Sinian pointed to the donkey-hide gelatin next to him, "Why don't we give the donkey-hide gelatin to your aunt, and your uncle can give the seahorse instead?"
"That's fine. I can only send some medicinal herbs; I can't find anything else for the time being."
Gu Sinian comforted her, "These things are already very good; you simply can't find them in Beijing."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. To avoid arousing suspicion, you can only send it this once. Be careful in the future, otherwise it will be difficult to explain if someone asks about it."
Su Ying nodded. "I understand. Some of these herbs were left by Grandma, and some I bought from the black market. They're perfect for our elders. You seal them up, and I'll write a letter and send them to Dad together."
"OK."
The two of them worked together for half a day, and half an hour later they carried a small package and walked through the streets and alleys to the post office, filled in the address, and left the post office.
Two hours had passed since I left the post office and arrived at the hospital; it was just time to pick up the report.
When Gu Sinian received the blood test report from the window, his pupils suddenly contracted.
The words "early pregnancy" were written on it. Gu Sinian rubbed his eyes in disbelief, looked at it again carefully, and then an indescribable joy spread through his heart.
"Comrade. Does the report saying early pregnancy mean I'm pregnant?"
The woman at the window nodded. "Yes. But early pregnancy usually lasts from two to four weeks. Just remind your wife to take good care of herself, get plenty of rest and nutrition. There shouldn't be any problems. Remember, no intercourse during pregnancy."
Gu Sinian nodded vigorously, indicating that he understood. "I will pay attention. Thank you for the reminder, comrade."
"Serving the people, comrade, you don't need to be so polite."
Gu Sinian was very excited when he received the report and walked towards Su Ying. He didn't expect that being a father would feel so pleasant.
He thought he probably wouldn't be very happy... after all, the child's arrival was unexpected, and they weren't prepared at all.
I never imagined that finding out I was going to be a dad would be so joyful and happy; I was so happy I almost took off.
He ran towards where Su Ying was sitting and handed her the blood test results. Su Ying saw that Gu Sinian was all smiles, so she didn't immediately take the results.
Su Ying noticed the barely concealed smile on Gu Sinian's face and asked a question.
"Are you not pregnant? You seem so happy."
Gu Sinian froze on the spot. "You don't want to get pregnant?"
Su Ying nodded, "Of course. I wasn't prepared at all, and now that I'm pregnant, I don't know what to do."
"But she's already pregnant."
"No way."
Su Ying snatched the blood test report, which read "early pregnancy," leaving her somewhat bewildered.
She's pregnant already?
I'm starting to question the meaning of life.
She got pregnant even after just one instance of not using protection; she's truly an unstoppable succumbent.
She's gotten pregnant.
We have no choice but to accept it.
Take good care of yourself during pregnancy and give birth to a healthy baby.
"Since you're already pregnant, just give birth properly. I'll take care of the baby; your family doesn't need to worry about it. Just do what you need to do."
"You said it yourself."
"I said it."
After Gu Sinian confirmed Su Ying's pregnancy, his actions became even more exaggerated than before...
They carefully helped her onto the oxcart and let her secretly take out a soft blanket from her storage space to put on.
"How am I supposed to explain taking this out later?"
Gu Sinian didn't take it seriously. "What else can we explain? Just say you bought it. Your brother-in-law isn't the type to pry. Even if he has some suspicions, he won't think of anything else. Right now, the most important thing is you and the child."
"Alright then."
I sat comfortably on the oxcart and set off to pick someone up at the main entrance of the department store.
Gu Siqing's family had been waiting in front of the department store for some time. When they saw the two of them driving the oxcart over, they knew that they had already been to the hospital.
She trotted over and was about to jump onto the oxcart to inquire about the situation when Gu Sinian immediately stopped her.
"Be careful. Don't scare my daughter."
Gu Siqing's lips twitched, her eyes blinking rapidly. "No way. She's pregnant just like that?"
