During her lunch break, Li Qiao went back to her aunt's house and overheard Liu Li and Wang Fang encouraging the pregnant military wives in the family compound to sign a joint letter for Lin Han.
Li Qiao felt that, to put it seriously, this matter might actually clear Lin Han of suspicion.
So she didn't dare delay for a moment and ran back to the dormitory to report the situation to Wang Ru.
On the other side, in the old cadres' family compound, Lin Han chatted with Grandpa Gu for a while after lunch.
After cleaning up the kitchen, Grandma Jiang took Lin Han to the hospital for a check-up.
Upon hearing this, Qin Shuman decided not to take a nap, packed her things, and went along.
The military region's hospital has doctors on duty at noon, making it very convenient to get examinations done.
After Grandma Jiang arrived, she took Lin Han to the office of the head of the obstetrics and gynecology department, whom she knew, and explained the situation.
“My granddaughter-in-law is more than three months pregnant, and her belly looks bigger than usual. Could you tell me what tests you can order for her so we can feel more at ease?”
Although it varies from person to person, some pregnant women may have larger bellies than other pregnant women, which is not a big deal.
However, the Gu family was very cautious about Lin Han, fearing that something might go wrong, so they thought it would be better to have her checked at the hospital.
The head of the obstetrics and gynecology department asked Lin Han to lift up her clothes for a look.
"It's definitely about the size of a four or five-month pregnant belly. Let me get an ultrasound to check."
At this stage, the ultrasound technology was still very limited, and it was still in the grayscale ultrasound stage, which is what people later commonly referred to as black and white ultrasound or two-dimensional ultrasound. However, it was still possible to see clearly whether the baby in the womb was healthy.
After the doctor wrote out the examination form, Qin Shuman took the form to the window to pay. Military personnel are reimbursed for medical treatment at the military hospital, so she only needed to take her officer's ID and Lin Han's ID to the window for verification.
The nurse took Lin Han to the examination room.
They had her take off her shoes and lie on the bed. The doctor lifted her clothes and rolled an instrument back and forth on her stomach.
"There's no problem, all three babies are growing very well."
Three babies?
Lin Han was surprised. When she went to the Qingzhou Military Region Hospital for a check-up, the doctor did not tell her that she was pregnant with triplets.
Good heavens, triplets! She couldn't believe it.
The doctor had heard Lin Han mention during their earlier conversation that she had undergone some tests, so he assumed that Lin Han knew she was pregnant with triplets.
Judging from her surprised tone, she didn't know that before.
"Yes, you are carrying triplets, so your belly will be bigger than if you are carrying a single baby, but don't worry, all three babies are healthy."
Lin Han emerged from the examination room in a daze, startling Qin Shuman and Old Mrs. Jiang.
"How is it? What did the doctor say about the baby?"
Lin Han glanced at Qin Shuman and then at Old Madam Jiang.
"The doctor said..."
"What did the doctor say? Oh dear, I'm so worried! Is something wrong with the baby?"
Lin Han shook her head, "The babies are fine. The doctor said all three babies are healthy."
Now it was Qin Shuman and Grandma Jiang's turn to be dumbfounded.
"Three...babies?"
"Oh my god, Hanhan, are you carrying triplets? You're amazing!"
After realizing what had happened, Grandma Jiang was so excited that she didn't know what to do.
