"I..." Lu Nong's voice was harsh. She wanted to ask Pei Ji'an if she was really worth it for him to do this?

Pei Ji'an thought that she was reluctant to give up the refined life in Beijing. Indeed, her life was very particular about details, but he asked her to go to a place where details were not possible. It was normal for her to find it difficult to accept for a while.

So Pei Ji'an explained seriously: "I know you are smart and can see that the overall environment has changed, otherwise you wouldn't work so hard to complete your studies, find a fair job, and avoid interpersonal disputes. But Beijing is like a vortex, and if you stay here, you will be sucked in one day..."

"Okay, I agree."

Pei Ji'an stopped talking. He didn't expect to convince Lu Nong the first time. He told the truth today because she was too excited about her pregnancy, but she agreed.

One of them looked down, the other looked up, and they stared at each other silently.

Lu Nong lowered his head and stared into Pei Jinan's eyes. His eyes were like a thick fog, and his emotions were always hidden in the fog. At this moment, the fog dissipated, and some of the hidden sincerity finally appeared.

At this time, Mother Wu hurried down from upstairs, holding a thick cotton jacket and wrapping Lu Nong in it. "My little ancestor, put on the new cotton jacket quickly. What if you get frozen and get hurt?"

Lu Nong had no choice but to change out of her woolen coat and put on Wu Ma's cotton skirt. Fortunately, the cotton skirt was made of plain cloth, so although it looked bulky, it did not look tacky.

Pei Zheng also quickly borrowed a car and came back. Mother Wu stayed to take care of Xiao Huai, while Pei Ji'an and Pei Zheng accompanied Lu Nong to the hospital.

Pei Jinan was driving on the road. Lu Nong was no longer dizzy and his stomachache didn't hurt anymore.

She slowly touched her belly, her mind full of thoughts.

Pei Zheng sat in the passenger seat, constantly looking back at Lu Nong's belly with a complicated expression. Pei Zheng never regarded Lu Nong as a stepmother or an elder. He always regarded Lu Nong as a playmate and friend, and thought that Lu Nong was a great sister.

Now that his sister was pregnant with the old man's child, he finally realized that his sister was a mother, the woman who would accompany his father for the rest of his life.

Pei Zheng thought to himself that he could no longer bully Lu Nong because she was pregnant. (Lu Nong: ?? You are a little too confident.)

If Lu Nong could give birth to another cute brother like Xiao Huai, he would not be unable to accept it.

In just ten minutes, Pei Zheng completed the self-brainwashing process, from resistance to the new family member to expectation, and firmly believed that it was a younger brother.

"How long will it take for my little brother to come out?" Pei Zheng asked, staring at Lu Nong's belly, which had no visible curve.

Lu Nong calculated the time from her menstruation and it was about two months, but she was not sure, so she replied: "We can only be sure after the results of the hospital examination come out, but... why not a younger sister? Don't you like younger sisters?"

Pei Zheng pouted, "Don't be ridiculous, Xiao Huai and I are masters after all, how can we take care of a little girl?"

Pei Zheng's original intention was that boys couldn't play with girls, but Lu Nong focused on the last four words "girl".

Lu Nong was furious. What do you mean by a girl?

"Haha, I'm also a girl. Do you want to know what the consequences are of angering a girl?"

Pei Zheng: “…” To be honest, I don’t want to.

Pei Ji'an glanced at Pei Zheng, who immediately knelt down and apologized: "I was wrong, it's not a girl, it's a young lady, it's a princess, okay?"

Lu Nong humphed lightly, dissatisfied with the remaining contempt for girls in this era. Even the male protagonist Pei Zheng was more or less influenced by the environment. What else could he expect?

If the baby in her belly was a girl, Lu Nong would probably have to worry about her all her life. She would have to teach her from a young age not to trust strangers, not to trust any man other than her father and brother, even if they were acquaintances.

It would be best to teach her self-defense so that she can be able to protect herself.

When she grows up, you have to teach her to identify scumbags.

Thinking of this, Lu Nong sighed. This year is 1965, and it will only be 1985 in 20 years. The social atmosphere is still closed and conservative. His daughter cannot enjoy the tolerance of modern times in her best years. She can't wear pretty little skirts that show her thighs and arms in the summer. It's such a pity.

Pei Jinan, who had been driving, comforted Lu Nong, "Both sons and daughters are good. If it's a daughter, it would be even better."

Pei Ji'an was speaking from the heart, he wanted a daughter more than a son. Whenever he thought about having a little girl who looked a lot like Lu Nong, he would participate in her birth and growth, watching her grow up little by little, as if he had participated in Lu Nong's growth process. Pei Ji'an's heart softened and all his anger was calmed.

When they arrived at the hospital, Pei Zheng went to pay the bill, while Pei Ji'an accompanied Lu Nong to have blood drawn for testing. The test results would not be available until the next day, so they went to see a Chinese doctor. The doctor felt the pulse, pondered for a while, and said to the two people who were waiting nervously, "It's like beads rolling on a plate, flowing smoothly, it's a slippery pulse."

Then he asked Lu Nong if she had been feeling tired or had nausea recently. After receiving Lu Nong's affirmative answer, the doctor finally confirmed, "Congratulations, both of you. Your wife is probably pregnant."

Pei Ji'an held Lu Nongban in his arms and whispered, "Thank you."

Lu Nong touched her belly and found it magical that right after the doctor told her she was pregnant, she seemed to really feel that there was a little life closely connected to her.

The doctor had worked in the hospital for many years and had never seen such an outstanding-looking couple. They looked very much in love, so the doctor couldn't help but smile in blessing. He then asked Lu Nongyue how many days had passed and a few other questions.

"You are estimated to be more than eight weeks pregnant."

"Doctor, my stomach hurt a lot before coming to the hospital. Is there anything wrong?" Lu Nong asked.

Doctor: "Did you do any excessive exercise today?"

Lu Nong was about to shake his head when he suddenly remembered that he had dodged when Lu Wenqiang bumped into him. His stomach did feel a little uncomfortable at the time, but Lu Nong didn't care.

Thinking back now that Lu Wenqiang almost bumped into her, Lu Nong felt a wave of fear. Fortunately, she dodged Lu Wenqiang quickly at that time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

I thought of the confrontation between Lu Wenqiang and Song Dalan, in which she said that she would take revenge on them if she got hit while pregnant. It turned out to be true, and she really became pregnant.

Lu Nong asked cautiously, "Someone almost hit me, and I dodged with a bit of force, does that count?"

Lu Nong said it lightly, but Pei Ji'an was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He frowned and asked her, "What's going on?"

Lu Nong held Pei Jinan's hand to comfort him, then looked at the doctor.

The doctor nodded, "It's possible. It's fine this time. Be careful to protect yourself in the future."

Then the doctor told the couple: "During this period, pregnant women will experience symptoms such as lethargy, loss of appetite, fatigue, chills, dizziness, etc. Family members should make sure that pregnant women eat more good food, supplement nutrition, keep warm, avoid cold water, do not eat blood-activating foods, and try to eat less cold foods such as hawthorn..."

It was Lu Nong’s first pregnancy, and she asked the doctor a lot of questions. Pei Ji’an followed her and took notes silently, asking a few questions from time to time.

Due to the times, the most common thing hospitals say to pregnant women and their families is to eat more good food. As for what to eat, conditions are scarce and it is useless to tell them if they don't have it at home.

But this time the doctor said a lot. First, families who can come to the hospital to check whether they are pregnant or not are generally not short of money. Second, the couple is very loving, and the husband obviously values ​​his wife very much. The questions he asked covered all aspects, and the doctor unconsciously said a lot more.

After leaving the consultation room, Pei Zheng, who had been waiting on the bench for a long time, stood up immediately and asked Lu Nong and his biological father: "How is it? Do you really have a brother or sister?"

Lu Nong nodded and shared his joy with a smile. Pei Zheng instantly felt like he was facing a powerful enemy and treated Lu Nong as if he were a glass man. He even spoke in a slow voice.

When they got home, Wu's mother came out with Xiao Huai. "How was it?"

"The test results won't be out until tomorrow, but we saw a Chinese doctor, who said we are pregnant."

Mother Wu was overjoyed and chanted “Amitābha” several times.

Xiao Huai, who was standing nearby, saw his mother and ran over to ask Lu Nong to hold him, but was stopped by Wu’s mother, “Don’t dare, your mother is pregnant now, can grandma hold you?”

Xiao Huai was smart and introverted. He avoided Mother Wu, picked up the little white dog on the ground, and stared at Lu Nong without saying a word. Mother Wu was surprised.

"It's okay, mom. It's okay to hug me."

Children can also be sad. Xiao Huai is more sensitive and intelligent. Lu Nong doesn’t want him to think that his parents love his younger siblings more, so he opens his arms and says, “Baby, come and hug Mommy, okay? Mommy needs Xiao Huai’s hug.”

Xiao Huai tilted his head, put down the little white dog and walked to Lu Nong. He put his arms around Lu Nong, patted her shoulders awkwardly, and tried hard to comfort his mother.

Lu Nong picked him up and said, "Thank you for the hug, baby. Mommy is much better now."

Pei Ji'an waited until the mother and son finished being intimate, then took Xiao Huai and held Lu Nong's waist with his other hand.

That night, Xiao Huai slept between Lu Nong and Pei Ji'an. After coaxing Xiao Huai to sleep, Pei Ji'an held Lu Nong on his lap, gently rubbed her belly, and whispered the same question he had asked during the day, "Who bumped into you? Lu Moxing or your sister-in-law?"

Lu Nong was helpless and said, "It wasn't them. It was Lu Wenqiang who tried to snatch the mackerel from my hand and rushed towards me. I dodged in time, but he crashed into the snow pile instead."

Pei Ji'an snorted coldly, "What's wrong with the child? My child almost got into trouble. If I can't settle this account with the child, then I'll settle it with the child's parents!"

Lu Nong: “…” It seems like what I said has come true again.

Lu Nong could see that Pei Jianan loved the baby in her belly very much and could even say such childish words, which was totally unlike his usual calm and composed self.

"By the way, if we go to the south, what will happen to Pei Zheng?"

Lu Nong couldn't bear to leave Pei Zheng alone in Beijing.

"Don't worry. Shen Yiming and I are different. He had to leave. I took the initiative to ask for the transfer. I have a few months to prepare for the handover. Didn't you prepare a study plan for him so that he can graduate within two years?"

"Shorter the time."

Lu Nong: “…” Poor Pei Xiaozheng, his father’s fate.

"...Do you think your son doesn't need a rest?"

That makes sense. Pei Ji'an nodded. "Then there is nothing we can do. Pei Zheng is seventeen years old. It is time for him to leave his parents and work hard on his own to hone himself."

Pei Ji'an had already fought hard on the battlefield when he was seventeen years old. Compared with him, Pei Zheng lived too lazy a life. There was nothing wrong with exercising. He even wanted to follow the policy and send Pei Zheng to the countryside for a few years of labor reform, so that he could suffer more and integrate into the crowd, which would be good for his future.

When Pei Ji'an brought up this idea, Lu Nong was stunned. He recalled that in the novel, Pei Zheng had been an educated youth for several years before joining the army. He was very reluctant at first. Was he tricked by his own father?

The absolute truth.

I feel sorry for Pei Xiaozheng again.
