Shen Xiangzhi was stunned, looked at her and said, "Would you like to test it again with that test paper later? Or...test it a few more times?"
"What do you mean?" An Hongdou didn't quite understand.
"I've heard people say before that some people have fetal dreams when they are pregnant. That's the baby telling us that she is coming." Shen Xiangzhi didn't remember who told him this, and he didn't take it seriously at first, but as soon as An Hongdou mentioned it, his mind recalled it very clearly.
"What are you thinking about? Who would dream that the baby would be a ginseng fruit? And there are at least dozens of ginseng fruits on that tree. I'm not a sow!" An Hongdou thought it was impossible.
"Didn't you only pick two out of dozens? And those two turned into babies and jumped into your body." Shen Xiangzhi felt that his hope was true. The three children were not small anymore, and having another daughter would be just right.
Otherwise, after she graduates and starts working in two years, it will probably be even more difficult to have another child.
After hearing what Chen Xiangzhi said, An Hongdou also felt it was strange and she was puzzled.
Halfway through the meal, An Changyue brought Dabao and the others back.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Dabao complaining, "Mom and Dad are too much. You cook and eat at home, and drive me and my sisters and brothers out."
After saying that, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The small restaurant was crowded and the air was hot and stuffy. He was sweating all over. After eating, he walked around and sweated even more.
"Stinky boy!" Shen Xiangzhi pinched his face in disdain and explained, "Mom has had a poor appetite these days. Dad didn't know until he came back, so he went to make her mung bean soup. He didn't plan to cook at home in advance."
Shen Xiangzhi asked him, "What's wrong? Don't you like eating in restaurants?"
An Hongdou is not a good cook. Shen Xiangzhi will cook when he has time, and An Changyue will also try. But she is always disliked, so she simply doesn't cook.
"No, the food in the restaurant is delicious, but it's too hot. My forehead is sweating." Dabao said as he stretched his head to show him.
Chen Xiangzhi said, "Then let's buy it back next time instead of eating in the restaurant."
Dabao nodded heavily.
An Changyue sent them to take a shower. Knowing that An Hongdou was not feeling well, she cleaned up the dishes.
An Hongdou was not idle either. She went upstairs and tested it again with the test paper.
It was still a bar, and she felt disappointed and relieved at the same time.
Shen Xiangzhi was even more depressed.
I tossed and turned hard at night, as if I could conceive the baby this way.
An Hongdou saw his disappointment and knew that he was in his safe period, so she let him act like that.
I just had a nap in the afternoon, so I’m not too sleepy anyway.
However, for several days, the relatives did not come.
Even if it was not normal before, it was not too different, so An Hongdou couldn't help but take it to heart.
She took another test at night.
However, this time she saw the two obvious bars, all clearly printed on it, and her heart, which had been troubled for several days, suddenly settled down.
It seems that the reason why it was not detected a few days ago was simply because the time was too shallow.
No wonder she seemed to be acting strange these days, she is really pregnant.
An Hongdou walked out in a daze and sat on the edge of the bed.
"You haven't come yet? Take a day off tomorrow and I'll go to the hospital with you."
Shen Xiangzhi reached out to hug her, but she pushed him away ruthlessly.
When I turned around, I saw that her eyes were misty and a little resentful.
"What's wrong?" Shen Xiangzhi was thinking whether he had offended this little ancestor in some way today.
"As you wish, I might have it." An Hongdou said.
Shen Xiangzhi was stunned at first, then quickly got up and ran to the bathroom.
When he came out, the corners of his mouth were almost stretched behind his ears, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood.
Compared to him, An Hongdou was filled with depression.
Suddenly, the smile on Shen Xiangzhi's face froze, and he walked towards her worriedly, even looking at her with nervousness, as if she was a fragile porcelain doll at this moment.
"Hongdou, you've been so..." Chen Xiangzhi asked her worriedly, "Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is our daughter not hurt?"
She was about to have her period and didn't have to worry about the safe period. Shen Xiangzhi had been having a great time these past few days, with an attitude of "the night is short and the sun is shining brightly".
Now, knowing that this matter concerns his daughter's life, he began to get nervous.
"That's fine. Apart from being lazy and not wanting to eat, I don't feel uncomfortable at all." An Hongdou pulled his hand away from her stomach and said unhappily, "How do you know it must be a girl? What if..."
He pursed his lips and didn't say anything else.
Well, she already has a son, and more than one, and she is also hoping that the one in her belly will be a girl.
Hearing her say this, Shen Xiangzhi also said, "We already have three sons, so I hope this baby can be a girl, but it would be fine if it is a son, anyway, they are our own children, it doesn't matter whether it is a boy or a girl."
Only then did An Hongdou burst into laughter.
Indeed, they are all their own children, there is no difference.
"I'll take a leave tomorrow and take you to the hospital for another check-up. Otherwise, if there's something wrong, we can rest assured." Chen Xiangzhi was already thinking about the memory of serving the pregnant woman in his mind. Several years had passed, and some memories had long been forgotten.
Moreover, when Dabao and the others were born, he and An Hongdou didn't have much affection for each other yet, they were just making do with each other. It can't be said that he didn't care about her, but there were many things he didn't do well.
Also, without much experience, in the countryside, being able to have enough to eat is considered a good life in the eyes of others.
It’s different now. The relationship is there, the conditions have improved, and I have more experience.
Chen Xiangzhi thought to himself that he must not suffer the pain of inexperience again this time. At the very least, he must not be unable to eat after giving birth and have to worry about the children's food.
Thinking about their experience when Dabao was born, Shen Xiangzhi felt that he was really not a human being. Many things could have been arranged in advance, but because of him, he didn't think about it at all, so she couldn't even rest after giving birth.
Thinking about it, Chen Xiangzhi kissed An Hongdou on the face distressedly and said, "Wife, why don't we call mom and ask her to take care of you for a while. The children in the An family are all grown up, and no one needs mom to look after them. Let her come and accompany you?"
"I'm afraid it won't be easy." An Hongdou sighed and said, "Mom is not young anymore. She can't go on a long journey alone. It's a two-day and two-night journey. Who can trust an old lady like her to come all the way here alone?"
Mrs. An is only about sixty years old, but due to years of hard work, old ladies in the countryside seem to age faster than those in the city.
Grandma Su is almost eighty years old, and she doesn't look much different from Grandma An when standing next to her.
