Li Xin slept until the evening, and finally woke up when he smelled the aroma of food coming from the kitchen.
The medicine he had taken before took effect. Li Xin felt that his stomach was not as painful anymore and his whole body was warm.
"Sanmao, what delicious food have you made?" Li Xin walked to the kitchen door in a good mood and saw Sanmao cooking inside.
Sanmao didn't cook anything too complicated. She just stewed some bone soup to nourish the body and fried two side dishes. Both were very light, not greasy or spicy.
"These are all the master's favorite foods~" Sanmao said with a smile.
Li Xin poured a bowl of soup and drank it while waiting for Sanmao to finish cooking.
He Beichen was not at home, and Li Xin felt that eating alone was boring. Plus, she had her period, so she didn't eat much.
Li Xin couldn't sleep at night because she slept too much during the day, so she asked Sanmao to play a movie for her.
"This hot water bottle is cold, not warm at all." Li Xin just got into the quilt with the hot water bottle in his hand, and immediately threw it out in disgust.
After an afternoon, the hot water bottle is no longer warm at all. Although it is not freezing cold, it is definitely not very warm.
"I'll go boil some more water for the master."
Sanmao picked up the hot water bottle that had just been thrown out and went to the kitchen to boil water to refill it.
Li Xin looked at the half-empty bed and began to miss He Beichen.
He clearly just left today, but Li Xin felt as if he had been gone for a long time.
When He Beichen is around, there is no need to use a hot water bottle to warm my stomach. His body is always warm, and the temperature of his hands is just right for rubbing my stomach. It feels especially comfortable.
Li Xin sighed and silently exchanged his pillow with He Beichen's.
…
The next morning, Li Xin woke up and still felt a little pain in his stomach, but it was just a dull pain, much better than the heavy pain he felt yesterday.
After breakfast, she went to the military clinic to get some more medicine.
"Hey, you haven't come to see me for a long time. Did you start to miss me after Beichen left?" Ye Mingxi watched her come and then teased.
There were not many people in the clinic. Ye Mingxi poured her a cup of hot water, but couldn't help but pay attention to her expression while speaking.
"You don't look well. Why did you suddenly come to my clinic? Could it be that you're here?" Ye Mingxi thought for a moment, calculated the time, and looked at Li Xin with some surprise: "It's been a month and a half, it's been quite a while."
"It's only been a little over a month, that's nothing... You're just an unmarried girl, you don't know anything!"
Suddenly, an older military doctor walked in. After hearing the second half of Ye Mingxi's words, he obviously misunderstood something and looked at Li Xin with a smile on his face: "Don't listen to her nonsense. Congratulations!"
"Oh..." Li Xin looked embarrassed and touched his nose at a loss: "No...no, it means my period is delayed."
"Her period was delayed for more than a month. She has qi and blood deficiency, and menstrual blood flow is blocked, which leads to dysmenorrhea. I think she is probably here to get medicine." Ye Mingxi also explained.
"ah?"
The female military doctor was also very embarrassed when she realized that she had made a mistake. Thinking about how she had just congratulated a person with dysmenorrhea, she now wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
What did she say?
No, she deserves to die!
"I'm sorry..."
"It's okay." Li Xin waved his hand.
After the female military doctor took the medicine, she left quickly.
After she left, Ye Mingxi winked at Li Xin playfully and couldn't help laughing at her.
"Mingxi...Is it difficult for me to get pregnant with my current condition?" Li Xin strategically took a sip of hot water and asked nervously, "Tell me the truth."
Ye Mingxi examined her and looked quite relaxed.
"I remember you are from Guangyuan Village, right?"
"Um."
"It's in the north, where the weather is much colder. You've been malnourished since childhood, and you've probably been exposed to the cold a lot, so your uterine cold is more serious than that of ordinary women." Seeing Li Xin looking so nervous, Ye Mingxi patted the back of her hand and comforted her.
"I know this."
Li Xin nodded slightly.
The original owner had a weak constitution and a cold body. Even though Li Xin had never studied medicine, he knew that it would be difficult for her to get pregnant.
"You were a little weak, but you've recovered somewhat. The health tea I gave you last time was effective because you persisted in drinking it. Compared to the last delay of more than two months, this time it's only been delayed for half a month."
"And your complexion is much better than when you first came. As long as you continue to take care of yourself, you will gradually get better. A cold uterus only reduces the chances of pregnancy, but it is not absolutely infertile."
She assured Li Xin and without Li Xin saying anything, she went to get the medicine from last time and handed it to her.
Just now, when she found out that Li Xin was on her menstrual period, she guessed why she came to the clinic.
“Hmm…”
"Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with your body. You don't have to worry about pregnancy. Once your body recovers, you will definitely be able to get pregnant. Besides, you are not that old now, why are you in a hurry to have a child? No one will rush you." Ye Mingxi looked at Li Xin in confusion.
She was also familiar with the He family. Neither He Beichen nor Old Man He would force Li Xin to have a baby quickly.
"I know... I'm not in a hurry, I just thought of it, so I asked." Li Xin smiled.
"That's right. If anyone should be worried, it should be He Beichen. He is 26 years old and you are only 18. He is the one who should be worried." Ye Mingxi nodded.
