Chapter 225: A Touch of Joy
Gao Xiulan hurriedly took everyone to the hospital and specially asked an old Chinese doctor to take their pulse.
The old Chinese doctor was a female comrade. She had her hair tied up, all silver, and wore glasses.
This is Zhou Jianguo’s younger sister’s mother-in-law, Shen Suqin.
"It's a shallow month, so you still need to pay more attention."
After saying this, Gao Xiulan finally felt relieved. She took Lin Xiaotong's hand and continued to ask if there was anything she should avoid eating.
"Xiu Lan, it's rare to see you so nervous, you know all the common ones.
For the rest of the food, eat more fresh fruits, fish, meat, eggs and milk. Now is a good time to buy some more apples to stock up.
Your daughter-in-law is in good health. If you're worried, you can come over to check on her every month."
It doesn't matter if you just avoid cold drinks, watermelon, crab, turtle and other raw and cold foods, pickled, smoked, grilled foods, high sugar, alcohol and other irritating foods.
"That's great. Her aunt thanks you. We'll be leaving first."
Lin Xiaotong also smiled at Shen Suqin, took Gao Xiulan's arm and went out.
She felt much more relaxed because Gao Xiulan was by her side, so she had nothing to be afraid of.
When I was going down the stairs, I saw a familiar figure, but before I could see clearly, the figure disappeared.
"Xiaotong, are you hungry now? Mommy will make you whatever you want to eat."
I was lucky enough to get a fresh fish today, but now I don’t have the chance to enjoy it anymore.
"Mom, I suddenly want to eat sauerkraut dumplings and the sweet potatoes that Dad baked."
"Okay, let's do it tomorrow. Something sour will stimulate your appetite.
Don't be nervous or afraid. It's still early. There's nothing in your stomach. Eating and drinking well is more important than anything else."
Gao Xiulan thought that Xiaotong's mother was not at home, and only her aunt was left, and Xie Yi also went to the south.
A long string of words came out of his mouth unconsciously.
"Mom, I've written it all down. If you still don't trust me, I'll never be unhappy."
Listening to Gao Xiulan's chatter, she nodded obediently, knowing in her heart that only someone who cared about her would say such words.
When they returned, Gao Xiulan was grinning from ear to ear. Diao Yulian had just finished eating and was standing there watching Wu Shengli wash the dishes.
Seeing the Xie family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law come in, he turned up his upper lip:
"Hey, Gao Xiulan, did you find some money? Your mouth is grinning so wide."
Gao Xiulan feigned surprise: "You know all this? How did you know I just found fifty cents at the gate?"
She is not planning to tell anyone about Lin Xiaotong's pregnancy yet, as it is not even three months yet.
Diao Yulian was choked by the words. She looked at Gao Xiulan's clenched palms and wondered in her heart, could she have really picked up money?
No, if Gao Xiulan can pick it up, why can’t she?
Gao Xiulan didn't care about her. The two of them hurried into the house. Xie Da Jiao was waiting in the main room, turning the sweet potatoes with chopsticks.
Xiaoju and Zhima were lying next to each other and licking each other's fur. Today they had some fish soup and their stomachs were full.
"You're back? What do you mean?"
"Old Xie, you can continue to make your crib."
"Really? Okay, okay, our family hasn't had any children for many years."
Xie Da Jiao was overjoyed because he was going to be a grandfather.
"Eat some sweet potatoes first. I'll make some noodle soup. Old Xie, please get two pickled cabbages from the pickled cabbage jar and wash them.
I'll make the dumpling filling later. I just happened to have a piece of meat left over from lunch.
There aren't many eggs left, so I'll buy a few more cartons tomorrow."
Lin Xiaotong is Gao Xiulan's little follower, and she also followed her to the kitchen to wash onions and garlic and help out.
After a busy meal, she slurped the hot vegetable and egg noodle soup, and a little sweat appeared on the tip of her nose.
"Eat slowly, don't burn yourself, and add some more soup."
Diao Yulian in the yard didn't wait for Wu Shengli to finish washing the dishes. Wu Shengli lowered his head and when he looked up again, she disappeared.
"Hey, where are you going, woman? It's almost dark, and I'm freezing to death."
Diao Yulian acted stealthily, walking around the door with her butt sticking out, searching as she went along, her eyes wide open as if she were afraid of missing the fifty cents on the ground.
I walked back and forth from the door to the bathroom three times, but still couldn't find a dime.
"What the hell is going on? Why can't I find it?"
Diao Yulian was so angry that she kicked the wall behind Jin Qiaofeng's house. The next second, she gasped and felt a sharp pain in her thumb.
Diao Yulian looked at the base of the wall of the back house from the west to the east, and finally she actually found five cents in the crack of the wall at Zhao Dahei's house.
He picked it up secretly, put it in his pocket, and went back satisfied.
…
After eating and drinking to my heart's content in the evening, I got dressed and wrote a letter to Xie Yi at the desk, eager to share the good news.
As I was writing, Little Orange jumped up, and his big furry face lay on the letter paper. Here came the naughty ghost number one.
Sesame, the second naughty contestant, firmly occupies the right hand position, with his black tail brushing against the back of his right hand.
Lin Xiaotong took advantage of the situation and grabbed Zhima's tail, touching it from top to bottom, making a purring sound.
"A naughty kitten's tail will be used as a brush to write."
Holding the black tail as a pen, he wrote on the paper, and a moving shadow appeared under the light.
Little Orange took a bite and held it in his mouth.
Zhima's hair suddenly exploded, and he slid down the table leg to change the battlefield.
…
Sure enough, when Diao Yulian woke up the next morning, she found that her nose was blocked, her head was dizzy, and she lay on the bed groaning.
Wu Shengli had no choice but to ask for leave and take people to the hospital. On the way back, he showed some courage for once.
"Look at you, just to pick up five cents, you caught a cold and spent several dollars on a visit to the hospital.
Do the math on this, is this worth it?"
Diao Yulian lowered her head and pretended to be dead, but she was thinking:
She can find five cents every time, and there's a chance she'll find it a second time. She should pay more attention to the wall when she has time.
Anyway, if she picks it up, she will make a profit. If she doesn’t pick it up, won’t someone else pick it up?
…
By the time Xie Yi received the letter, several days had passed. He had just finished taking a shower and picked up the letter on his way back to the dormitory.
He dried his hair with a towel, sat down in a chair, opened the envelope and started reading the letter.
Halfway through the film, I started breathing rapidly and joy began to show on my face. I couldn't help but shout out.
"I'm going to be a father!"
"What? Whose father are you?"
Xiong Chuan had just come back with some roasted sweet potatoes, and he was still chewing one, which was so hot that it made him cry.
"Fuck you, Xiaotong is pregnant, I'm going to be a father."
Xie Yi was speechless. What was wrong with this guy's ears? It was clearly a happy event, but he heard it like a curse.
"Brother, please share your joy with me."
Xiong Chuan ate it in two bites, then walked forward and held Xie Yi's hand tightly.
His wife hasn't even shown up yet, but Xie Yi is about to have a baby. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others.
"It's not my birth, how can I give you my happiness?
Hey, what's going on between you and Dr. Chi lately? Are you planning on having a baby soon?
Since the Phoenix City mission ended, Dr. Chi's attitude towards Xiongchuan has changed.
"Oh, where am I even now?"
Speaking of this, Xiongchuan, a grown man, is still a little shy. During the last rescue, a prefabricated board suddenly broke.
In an emergency, he protected Chi Yao under him and injured his arm. It was Chi Yao who performed the surgery on him.
When the two met on their way back to the island, Chi Yao took the initiative to greet him.
After a few interactions, the two gradually became familiar with each other.
"Oh, I haven't even been assigned a room yet. If Dr. Chi really follows me, won't I have to suffer?"
