After breakfast, watching Shen Anning get in the back seat of the car, Grandpa Cao did not forget to instruct the driver: "Xiao Xu, drive steadily on the road, go to the hospital first, and then take Anning to school."
"An Ning, if you want to eat something suddenly, just call me and I'll make it for you."
"Okay, grandpa and grandma, don't worry, I will pay attention."
Cao Jingheng drove behind, feeling extremely unhappy. He couldn't even ride in the same car with his wife to the hospital, and he didn't know when this situation would be resolved. If this morning sickness, which only affected him, lasted too long, he would make sure the baby learned what a strict father was like when he was born!
When Shen Anning arrived at the hospital, she first reported to her third senior sister Fan Wenhui.
"It's a slippery pulse. Judging from the pulse, the baby is very healthy. Junior Sister, you are in good health and have received adequate nutrition. Pay attention to your diet during the early stages of pregnancy. As long as you control your weight before giving birth, there will be no problem."
Fan Wenhui handed Shen Anning a glass of water and said, "Go upstairs to the obstetrics and gynecology department and let them do an ultrasound for you. I've been a doctor for so many years, and I can count on my ten fingers the number of people who have morning sickness reactions to their husbands. It's a coincidence that your Jingheng must have some opinions about the baby in your belly."
Shen Anning nodded in agreement, "Who said it wasn't? I started asking around this morning to see if there was any way to end my morning sickness sooner. I'm still waiting outside and didn't dare to come in."
After confirming it with his senior sister, he went to tell his master and senior brother the good news. Old Cheng even took his young apprentice's pulse and said, "Hmm, that's good. You should go to the hospital less often during this period. There are too many patients and bacteria. Just keep an eye on those kids at school for me. I'll have someone send you the research project reports and data every day."
"Oh, I have to go say hello to Director Qi for you. I can't let you do these physical chores like ward rounds anymore."
It was true that once you got pregnant, you would immediately enjoy the treatment of a national treasure. Shen Anning did not disappoint her master's kindness and said, "Okay, thank you, master. I will take a good rest for the next two months. I will come here more often when the fetus is stable in three months."
Coming out of the B-ultrasound room, holding a few pieces of paper in her hand, Shen An Ning only felt it was real at this moment. It was the first time she was a mother, the first time a little life was conceived in her belly. It was such a wonderful feeling.
Wearing a mask, she moved closer to the man. Shen Anning didn't react much. Seeing the man standing by the wall, his movements remained the same as when she entered, her heart softened, "Why don't you sit and wait?"
Cao Jingheng looked at his wife approaching, and his subconscious reaction was to take two steps back. Then he tried to move forward again. "How is it? Is it still uncomfortable to wear a mask?"
"It's okay if you can't smell it. It's okay if you get closer now."
When Cao Jingheng heard his wife say this, he walked to Shen Anning, but he didn't dare to get too close to her like before, for fear that his wife would be stained with his scent and feel uncomfortable.
Ana Shen handed him a piece of paper in her hand and said, “Take a look. I asked the doctor to print a few more copies. This one is for you.”
Cao Jingheng stared at the paper for a long time, extremely confused. How could this tiny dot be his child? "This is too small. When I calculated yesterday, shouldn't he be over forty days old? It's already been a month and a half, and he's still a tiny dot."
"Not small anymore. He's almost the size of a peanut now. Even though he'll be in my belly for more than nine months before coming out, he won't grow proportionally. He'll grow faster in the following months."
After carefully folding the B-ultrasound report and putting it in his wallet, Cao Jingheng smiled foolishly at his wife. It turned out that the kid was only this small. He would definitely have a good talk with him when he grew up.
No, if it was a daughter, you couldn't say harsh words to her and you had to pamper her well. But based on his wife's reaction during pregnancy, Cao Jingheng always felt that she must be a troublesome boy, not a soft and sweet daughter.
Looking at the man in trance, Shen Anning asked: "What are you thinking about? You are distracted."
"Wife, I'm wondering if this baby in your belly is a girl or a boy."
Shen Anning was also a little curious, "What about you, do you want a daughter or a son?"
"Actually, I hope he is a boy. If it's a girl, I won't even dare to speak loudly. Who can I ask to avenge your morning sickness? Also, no matter whether he has brothers or sisters in the future, if he is a boy, he can shoulder the burden of the Cao family well." What Cao Jingheng didn't say was that if they only had one child, a daughter, there would be too many responsibilities to bear in the future, and he was afraid that his daughter would be tired.
Shen Anning touched her belly, which was not fat at all, and said with a smile: “Let’s wait until the baby is born and see if he has received your instructions.”
Arriving at school, it was exactly nine o'clock, and the class at ten o'clock, Shen Anning had plenty of time to prepare. She took out a B-ultrasound form that had just been printed, and said, "Uncle Xu, please take this back to grandpa and grandma. You will have to work hard every day in the future."
"Alright, Madam, you're too polite. The old man pays me so much every month, but I don't do much work. Now that I can take you to and from school and bring you lunch, I feel like I'm of some use."
Before she even reached the medical school office, Shen Anning saw her mother in the corridor, "Mom, why are you here?"
"Hey, slow down, little ancestor, why are you running? I'm your mother right here." Carefully protecting her daughter, Shen's mother scolded: "You, you never let me rest assured. You don't even know what your situation is now."
"Oh, Mom, I know I was wrong. Don't you have classes this morning?"
Mother Shen pulled someone into the office and sat down, then took out the things in the bag. "I received your call this morning, and more than a dozen people in the family, from the oldest to the youngest, have all started moving. These are packed by grandma, your eldest sister-in-law, your second sister-in-law, and Xixi and Erbao. They are all snacks. I put them in the office for you to eat when you are hungry."
There was a bag full of things. Shen An Ning flipped through them. Many of them were things that Shen Erbao liked. "Erbao, you're giving me half of your family fortune!"
"That's right. He said he wants you to come back for dinner tonight so he can take a good look at your brother."
The mother and daughter smiled at each other. This was indeed the style of little Shen Ziyi!
