Chapter 18 The young man becomes a father for the first time
Inside the room, Su Qinglian said to Luo Caixia, "No, we absolutely cannot tell her."
Why didn't you tell?
"I'm not sure if she really wants to settle down with Yuanzheng. I've been observing her these past few days, but I haven't come to a conclusion yet. If you tell her that the railway plan is going to pass through our area and will take up our house, she definitely won't show her true colors."
Luo Caixia glanced at her and said, "There are three houses allocated in total. One for you, one for Yuanzheng, and the other one for your dad and me to live in. Why can't we tell her?"
"If Yuanzheng runs out of money after a while and she's still willing to stay with him, then I'll believe she's sincere."
"You have the mind of a petty person."
Luo Caixia said unhappily, "You said you wanted a house when the demolition was carried out, and I agreed to give it to you. Tongtong is also part of our family. She and Yuanzheng got their marriage certificate without a wedding. She's a college student. How can I guard against her alone? She's not an outsider."
“She’s no longer an outsider. Didn’t Xin Ya tell you about the things she did in the city before?”
I can't be bothered with you!
That evening, Luo Caixia approached Xia Yutong and told her that a railway was going to pass over the roof of the house and a railway bridge would be built. She and Su Yuanzheng would be given a house in the demolition compensation program.
Xia Yutong didn't react much. This was mentioned in the original novel. She nodded and said, "Mom, you don't need to tell me. You can arrange it with Dad."
When the land was covered in roses, the passengers on the railway were so amazed by the beautiful scenery that they wished they could jump off the train to admire it properly.
——
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Xia Yutong felt nauseous for several mornings in a row.
Su Yuanzheng knew that her period was coming and that she had a sensitive stomach, so he bought brown sugar and ginger to make her some soup.
It's the middle of summer, and the smell is really pungent.
Xia Yutong knew that she was probably carrying Su Yixia.
While reading the book, she felt sorry for Su Yixia, this adorable little girl, who was born weak and sickly, and whose mother was not by her side.
Fortunately, Su Yuanzheng doted on her...
The book says that she inherited her mother's beauty and also has a pair of large, dark blue eyes that are even more noticeable in the sunlight.
"You have a cold constitution, drink more."
Su Yuanzheng brought it over, saying, "It's a bit spicy, but your period is coming soon, so you should drink it."
Knowing the child was coming, Xia Yutong, despite lying with Su Yuanzheng every day, refused to be intimate with him.
Su Yuanzheng took the initiative several times, but each time she rejected him without understanding his feelings. He only acted, but didn't dare to say a word.
Once, when he got up to kiss her and tease her, Xia Yutong said, "No."
He was embarrassed himself. "I..." he stammered, "I'll cover you with the blanket."
He just won't admit what he thinks.
Su Yuanzheng, holding a spoon, sat on a stool slightly lower than her and fed her ginger soup.
Just smelling it makes you feel like your blood is flowing smoothly and your blood is flowing freely.
Just as Xia Yutong was about to say something, she covered her mouth and went out to vomit again. This time, she vomited even more violently than before, and she almost vomited bile.
"vomit……"
Su Yuanzheng was heartbroken. The condition was so severe and frequent that it couldn't be explained by menstruation or stomach problems.
Luo Caixia and Su Jianguo also came over, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Luo Caixia wiped her hands with a towel. "What did you eat yesterday?"
"It's nothing, it's just..."
Su Qinglian said unhappily, "She ate the cabbage I brought from Yaozong's house."
"Could it be that the pesticide wasn't washed off completely, and he got poisoned?"
Xia Yutong's face was pale. It was her first time being pregnant, and she felt suffocated and nauseous at the smell of everything.
With so many people gathered together, she looked up and vomited again.
Luo Caixia twisted her leg a few days ago while helping to dig the ground, so it was inconvenient for her to take Xia Yutong to see a doctor. Su Qinglian and Su Yuanzheng drove her to the county town.
They were driving Su Jianguo's white van, which could seat many people, but it smelled terrible inside. Xia Yutong gagged twice more on the way, but couldn't vomit anything.
Su Qinglian sensed something was wrong. She glanced at her, then at Su Yuanzheng, but ultimately said nothing.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Su Qinglian said to the nurse in the lobby, "Obstetrics and Gynecology Department."
Su Yuanzheng frowned. "Are you sure you want to hang this?"
"Let's take a look first."
After describing the symptoms and having an ultrasound, the doctor adjusted his glasses the moment the results came out and said, "Congratulations."
Su Yuanzheng and Su Qinglian were both stunned, while only Xia Yutong breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Qinglian went out to make a phone call, Xia Yutong sat quietly outside, and Su Yuanzheng was even quieter than her.
He didn't look happy, but rather confused, and Xia Yutong frowned.
"Su Yuanzheng."
"Um?"
Don't you want to have children?
Do you want to?
Su Yuanzheng was conflicted; he was afraid Xia Yutong wouldn't want it.
She has never liked children. Whenever she sees Xiaomi or other children in the village, she avoids them by a great distance. "Children are all here to collect debts, debts from their parents, and to be disliked by others."
Therefore, Su Yuanzheng never allowed his niece to get close to her, knowing that she didn't like it.
When Su Yuanzheng heard the doctor announce the pregnancy, he was very happy. He and Tongtong had a child so quickly. Where did this child come from? It was like it fell from the sky.
But I'm also worried, worried that she might not want it.
He considered asking, but what could he do then? Just because she said she didn't want it, did he really accept that?
Xia Yutong nodded: "Yes, I want it."
Su Yuanzheng excitedly grabbed her hand, acting like a shy young girl. Xia Yutong couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Why are you suddenly so quiet? I thought you didn't want it."
"How could that be? I thought you didn't want it."
Why wouldn't I want it?
Su Yuanzheng: "You said you don't like children."
Just then, Su Qinglian arrived. "What? You don't want it?"
She walked over excitedly, "Xia Yutong, this child is from the Su family, why shouldn't we accept him?"
"You've misunderstood. Get out of the way."
Su Yuanzheng glanced at Su Qinglian with displeasure, feeling that she had a lot of prejudice against Xia Yutong.
"You misheard me, I want it."
Su Yuanzheng pulled Xia Yutong away, not giving her a chance to speak.
Luo Caixia had already started killing chickens by mid-afternoon.
Su Yuanzheng insisted on seeing her, making her stay in the tent eating fruit and watching him work.
Xia Yutong wasn't idle. Seeing that Lao Miao had already gone to the fields, she started to plan the sales of the roses.
"Tongtong, let's go home."
"Going home, the sun is so bright..."
"Take the car back, and you won't be in the sun."
Xia Yutong stood up, looking puzzled. "Why go back?"
Su Yuanzheng took her hand, squatted down, and used his large hands to straighten the hem of her dress. "Go back and drink some chicken soup. The doctor said you're weak and need to take good care of yourself."
She was told she had to drink chicken soup, but let alone chicken soup, she started gagging as soon as she heard she was supposed to.
"Tongtong!"
Xia Yutong gagged a few times, feeling a little embarrassed, noticing that the people who had come to help in the field were staring at her.
"Look how nervous you are..."
"This young man is becoming a father for the first time."
Su Yuanzheng looked like a stubborn, headstrong young man. Xia Yutong wiped her lips after gagging and said, "Keep your voice down."
Su Yuanzheng's face darkened, and his brows furrowed. "I didn't eat much to begin with, and I threw it all up."
