Qu Ting burst out laughing, wiped her tears, and gently punched Tian Cai. "Go to hell, with my foundation, you can't really train me into a celestial being. If you really have that kind of ability, why would you still be here?"
"So you haven't seen me for such a long time, and you won't allow me to make progress?"
Tian Cai said this and waved to Chen Jinhui. He hurried forward and supported Qu Ting on the other side. The three of them went to Tian Cai's dormitory together.
It is said to be Tian Cai's dormitory, but in fact it is the duty room of the doctor on duty in the hospital. The room is small but well-lit, and currently she is the only one living here.
Tian Cai asked Qu Ting to sit back on the bed and rolled up the quilt and tucked it behind her. "Come on, tell me what your symptoms are first."
"I've been vomiting since I got pregnant. I was fine with my first child, but now I'm vomiting all the time with my second. I even vomit when I drink water. I can't eat anything. My mother sent me corn grits, and after she makes porridge from them, I can barely drink some of the soup, but I can't eat anything else."
"Sometimes when I vomit, not only my mouth but even my nose is busy. Liquid comes out of my nose and makes me jump around in fear that I will run out of breath and pass out all of a sudden."
"I can't eat during the day and wake up hungry in the middle of the night. When I wake up hungry, I go to the kitchen to find something to eat, but my nose is very sensitive. As soon as I enter the kitchen and smell something, I want to vomit. Recently, when I vomit, I found that there are streaks of blood in the vomit. Even my nose has started bleeding. I wonder if I am going to die——"
"My mom told me that many people vomit when they first get pregnant, but I was fine with my first child. Why is it so serious with my second? I'm already five months pregnant, and it's like this every day. Cai Cai, if you don't come soon, I feel like I won't be able to hold on. Brother Jinhui even discussed with me yesterday morning that if nothing goes, we shouldn't have this child. We're afraid it'll cost me my life!"
"But just when we were deciding not to have this child, he gave me a light kick in the stomach, and he started to move. How could I bear it? Wuwu——"
Qu Ting cried in grievance as she spoke. At this moment, she finally understood what her father had said. She had suffered enough from marrying far away. If she were to stay in the mountain village and feel unwell, her parents would definitely be heartbroken. They would cook for her in different ways, hoping that she would eat a bite.
It’s not that Chen Jinhui doesn’t know how to feel sorry for others. He still feels sorry for Qu Ting. But as a grown man, and a soldier at that, it’s inevitable that he won’t be able to take care of things. He won’t pay attention to many details, and once he is busy, he won’t be able to take care of Qu Ting’s emotions.
Qu Ting was alone at home, suffering from morning sickness, and had to take care of her eldest child who had just learned to walk. It was inevitable that she would be busy and irritable, and she felt even more uncomfortable as time went on.
"Some time ago, I felt that things were really going bad, so I asked my mother to come over. At least she could help Xiaoting take care of the kids, and she could have a break. She even couldn't eat the food my mother cooked." Chen Jinhui said helplessly. At least his mother's coming was not completely useless. This way, he could feel more at ease with someone at home when he was on a mission.
Qu Ting moved her mouth but said nothing.
Tian Cai understood from seeing her like that that there were some things that were difficult to say in front of Chen Jinhui, and most likely it was about her mother-in-law.
After Qu Ting calmed down, Tian Cai checked her body.
When she checked, she found something wrong.
Qu Ting's health was exactly as she thought. Long-term lack of food intake led to severe malnutrition. If this continued, the two children would not be saved.
That’s right, it’s two children, Qu Ting is pregnant with twins!
Moreover, the heartbeat of one of them was already very weak, and I was afraid it wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
"Did you know you were pregnant with twins?"
When the diagnosis revealed that it was twins, Tian Cai did not show any joy, but instead looked very serious.
"What?!"
"Twins?!"
Qu Ting and Chen Jinhui both exclaimed in surprise. They looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
But what followed was worry. I was worried that given my current physical condition, the two children would be unhealthy when they were born.
This was something they never expected. They had always thought it was just one child. If it was two, they would be even less willing to have an abortion. It was so difficult to conceive two children.
"Cai Cai, how is the child now?"
Qu Ting asked cautiously.
"The situation isn't good. You haven't been able to eat for a long time. These two children are developing slowly and are significantly smaller than other babies born the same month. Twins are smaller than normal babies to begin with, and now they're malnourished. You can't go back," Tian Cai said, looking at Chen Jinhui sternly. "Go get her hospitalized now. If she doesn't get help, she'll definitely miscarry within ten days."
Seeing Tian Cai's serious words, Chen Jinhui couldn't help but become serious, "I'll go right away."
"Is it really that serious?" Qu Ting was frightened and couldn't help but grab Tian Cai's hand. "Cai Cai, you will protect them, right?"
Tian Cai knew how serious the situation was. Since she asked Qu Ting to stay, she must have a certain degree of confidence. She held Qu Ting's hand and patted it, "Don't worry, I'm here!"
After a while, Chen Jinhui completed the hospitalization procedures, called a nurse to push a bed over, carefully carried Qu Ting onto it, and pushed her to the ward.
Qu Ting's ward was far away from Commander Che's, right at the two ends of the corridor.
This is a four-person ward. Beds one and three are already occupied. Fortunately, the nurses made very considerate arrangements. The other two beds are also occupied by military dependents, one is an elderly lady, and the other is a pregnant woman who just gave birth.
After putting Qu Ting on bed number two, Tian Cai asked Chen Jinhui to stay and take care of Qu Ting while she went to prepare the medicine first.
"I'll bring some medicine over in a bit. You can go back and pack some clothes for her, bring her a wash basin, a thermos, and so on. She's definitely going to be staying here for quite a while."
Seeing Chen Jinhui nodded, Tian Cai pushed the door open and went out.
The old lady in bed number three next to her was surnamed Feng. She had always liked pretty girls since she was young. She hadn't taken her eyes off Tian Cai the moment she saw her. Even after she left, she was still staring at the door with longing. After a while, she turned her head and asked Qu Ting in the bed, "Is that girl your sister? She's so pretty!"
Qu Ting had been feeling the stench of something since she entered the ward, pinching her nose to suppress her nausea. But when she heard someone praising Tian Cai, who seemed happier than she was, she burst out laughing. "Grandma, you really have good taste! My little sister is the prettiest girl in our area, and she's also a doctor. She's amazing!"
When Mrs. Feng heard this, her eyes lit up even more. Oh, he's a doctor, that's even more amazing!
Such a beautiful and capable girl is really hard to find even with a lantern. Thinking of the difficult situation at home, the old lady became more enthusiastic.
