At night, Zhao Shiyun returned to his room after washing up. Lin Yan had already fallen asleep. He frowned and reached out to touch Lin Yan's forehead. It wasn't hot.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then opened the door again and went out. He came to the door of his father and mother's room, knocked, and called softly, "Mom."
Li Yuemei was already dazed when she heard a knock on the door. She came over in her coat and opened it. Seeing that it was her son, she whispered, "What's wrong?"
"Mo, you should continue to go to town with us tomorrow. I've noticed that Brother Yan hasn't been feeling well lately, so I want to take him to the clinic."
"Okay, I'll go with you. What happened to Brother Yan? What are the symptoms?" Li Yuemei said worriedly.
"He's been very sleepy lately and hasn't been in a good mood. Look, he fell asleep not long after tonight."
"Feeling sleepy? Could it be that you are pregnant?" Li Yuemei muttered softly.
"Pregnant?" Zhao Shiyun was stunned.
"Yes, pregnant people tend to get tired and sleepy easily." Li Yuemei perked up at the thought and couldn't help but smile. "I'll take Yan Ge'er to see her early tomorrow, An An's mind."
Zhao Shiyun's heart was filled with excitement. "Well! Mom, go to bed early. I'm going back."
He was so preoccupied that he even walked unsteadily. In the moonlight, Lin Yan's sleeping face came into view, his entire body limp. Zhao Shiyun reached out and gently poked him, unable to articulate his feelings. Was he going to be a father? What a strange feeling.
He quickly took off his coat, lifted a corner of the quilt, and slowly lay down. He lay on his side, his eyes fixed on Lin Yan, and carefully felt his belly, which was still flat. Then he laughed at himself for being too impatient. Even if she was pregnant, it was only a month or two, so how could she show it? He carefully hugged Lin Yan, kissed his forehead, closed his eyes, and forced himself to sleep.

"What are you doing?" Lin Yan followed Zhao Shiyun out of the shop in confusion. This man had just finished selling breakfast and was pulling him out. Lunch was not ready yet and there were a lot of things going on in the shop.
"You'll know later." Zhao Shiyun kept it a secret, worried that Lin Yan would not want to go if he told him.
After a while, the two of them arrived at the door of the clinic. When Lin Yan saw the clinic sign, he stopped and said, "What are you doing here? I'm not sick." Zhao Shiyun held his hand and coaxed him softly, "I just came here for a physical check. You've been feeling sleepy lately. I'm worried about you, and I'm worried about you too." After hearing what he said, Lin Yan stopped struggling.
After entering the clinic, the apprentice led the two to sit in front of the old doctor. Lin Yan stretched out his hand and the old doctor took Lin Yan's pulse. After a moment, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Congratulations, this young man is pregnant, and it has been more than two months." Zhao Shiyun's face was full of surprise, but Lin Yan widened his eyes with disbelief.
Zhao Shiyun hurriedly asked the old doctor what he needed to pay attention to. The old doctor told him every detail, and Zhao Shiyun wrote it down one by one, fearing that there was anything he had missed. Lin Yan was dazed, still unable to accept that she was pregnant.
On the way home, Lin Yan remained silent. Zhao Shiyun carefully held his hand and said, "Brother Yan, this is a happy event. What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
Lin Yan looked up at him and said, "No, I just think it's too fast. The shop has just started on the right track, and now I'm pregnant, what should I do with it..."
Zhao Shiyun quickly put his arm around his shoulders and said, "It's okay. We can do it among ourselves. Brother Yu is pretty good at cooking now. You can teach him a little bit and let him take charge of the cooking. If that doesn't work, we can hire someone else."
Lin Yan looked into his eyes and gradually calmed down. Yes, she was pregnant, and it wasn't like she couldn't work. Why was she thinking so far ahead?
Back at the shop, Li Yuemei and Yu Ge'er were washing vegetables and chicken offal in the yard. Seeing them come back, Li Yuemei hurriedly washed her hands and came over to ask anxiously, "How is it? What did the doctor say?"
Zhao Shiyun said with a happy face: "Yes, I am pregnant. It has been more than two months."
As soon as the words fell, before Li Yuemei could react, Yu Ge'er dropped the lettuce in his hand and rushed over like a cannonball, "What? Are you pregnant? I'm going to have a nephew? I'm going to be an uncle?"
Li Yuemei saw him going crazy and slapped him, "Calm down, you look like you're pregnant."
Yu Ge'er fell silent instantly. This was not the right way to talk nonsense.
Lin Yan laughed, and the uneasiness he had felt along the way suddenly disappeared.
Zhao Shiyun helped him sit down and said, "Just sit there and we'll do the work."
Lin Yan gave him a reproachful look and said, "How can it be so precious?"
"Then do less work. We'll wash the vegetables and you can just fry them. I'll help you." Knowing that Lin Yan was pregnant, he was happy and nervous. Being a father for the first time, he was always afraid that he would not take good care of her and make Lin Yan unhappy.
Li Yuemei also chimed in, "That's right, get more rest. You need to be more careful during the first three months."
Lin Yan couldn't resist, so he could only sit on the stool and watch them busy themselves. Zhao Shiyun even gave him some sour plum snacks, which he had bought on the way back. He would buy some more later, so he could have more on hand.
