"That's good. Such a scourge, always resorting to underhanded tricks, is impossible to get along with. It's a good thing he's dead, otherwise such a person shouldn't have been kept alive."
All she wanted was for her daughter to come back safely; if anyone had to die, it would be someone else.
"Yes, that's what I was thinking too, Mom. Did you ask the chef to cook? We haven't had lunch yet!"
She ate a jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) this morning, which wasn't filling at all, and now she feels really hungry.
Mother An nodded, "I already had the chef prepare the meal when you arrived. Let's go eat!" Only then did the group get up to eat.
At the dinner table, An Shuyi and her mother talked about things on the island and the good things they had found, while the others chimed in from time to time, making it quite lively.
After finishing their meal, Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo prepared to go back. The house had been built and decorated during this time, and they planned to go and see if there was anything else the house needed.
The building that's supposed to house the company is still under construction. Now that I'm back, I need to make time to go and take a look. I can't just leave it to my uncle.
"Wife, I'll come see you again tomorrow," Xiao Yubai said to the person next to him.
An Shuyi nodded, "Okay, I was just thinking of going to see what the villa is like."
The land for their company building was given to them by their eldest brother, while the villa was given to them by their second brother. Both the company building and the villa were located closer to the outskirts of the city, and they hadn't seen the construction process since.
Before they went to the small world, my husband and Yu Mo handled those matters. After they went to the small world, my father and second brother handled those matters.
The speed was quite fast; the two villas were built in just a few months.
"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning!" he said, and drove away.
After watching him leave, An Shuyi told her parents and went back to her room for a nap. She hadn't slept enough in the morning, so this was a good opportunity to make up for it.
Xia Hua knew she was going to take a nap and planned to wake her up at dinner time, but in the end, she didn't need Xia Hua's help at all and got up on her own.
She looked a little listless, and after finishing dinner and resting for a while, she hurriedly went back to her room to sleep.
The next day, Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo drove over, but they were obviously a bit early because neither of them had gotten up yet. They sat downstairs and waited for a while before they saw Xia Hua get up.
"Shushu is already up. I just went to wake her up. She's washing up and will be downstairs soon," Xia Hua said.
If it weren't for waking that silly woman up, she wouldn't have come down at this hour. She never knew that Shushu could be so stubborn, just so she could sleep a little longer.
There was no smell of blood in her room. According to Shushu's time, it was already a day late, so it seemed that the pregnancy was basically certain. She had already made an appointment last night.
Considering that Shushu can't get up, and the appointments were all for 11 o'clock, it's only a little past 9 o'clock now, there's plenty of time.
The two people downstairs nodded after hearing this.
The three of them waited downstairs. Half an hour later, An Shuyi came down, her hair still wet, covered with a hair drying cap.
Xiao Yubai waited for her to come down, then stood up and walked over, took off the hair drying cap, dried her hair, took the comb, combed her hair, and tied it up. His wife was wearing a cotton-padded coat today, and it was uncomfortable for her hair to be down.
"Huahua, did you ask the chef to prepare the meal? Or have you already eaten?" An Shuyi asked after her hair was tied up.
I took out my phone and saw it was already midnight. No wonder I was so hungry.
"I don't know if they've eaten or not, but I haven't eaten yet, and you can't eat now either; you have to go to the hospital."
She got up early, washed up and changed her clothes, then called for Shushu, and didn't have time to eat at all.
An Shuyi looked at her with some confusion, "Going to the hospital? What for?" Is someone sick? But no one looks like it.
"Are you stupid? Your period is more than a day late, and you've been eating a lot and sleeping a lot these past few days, so you didn't notice anything wrong."
They say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years, and this hasn't even been confirmed yet, and you're already acting like a fool.
“It’s normal for my period to come a few days late, there’s nothing strange about it. But eating a lot is going too far. I don’t always eat a lot, but it would be good to go for a checkup.”
She just felt a bit tired these past few days and always felt like she couldn't get enough sleep. Maybe it really was like what Hua Hua said, that she was pregnant. It would be good to go for a checkup and put her mind at ease.
"Let's go then. You can eat after the check-up. We'll reluctantly wait for you. Your appointment is at 11 o'clock, so it's still possible to go now."
After Xia Hua finished speaking, she turned to the side and said, "Yu Bai, call Shi Man Tang and reserve a private room. Let's go eat."
By the time the test results came out, it would be lunchtime. If we went later, there wouldn't be any private rooms available, and we would be sitting in the main hall, which wouldn't be convenient for us to talk.
Yu Bai and Yu Mo had eaten there quite a few times, so they naturally knew the phone number for ordering food.
Xiao Yubai nodded, took out his phone to call and reserve a private room, and then ordered several dishes that his wife and Hua Hua liked. These dishes would take time to prepare, and if they went directly there, they wouldn't be able to be made in a short time.
The four of them drove there in two cars. On the way, Cheng Yumo asked curiously, "Wife, why can't we eat anything when we go to check if we're pregnant? Isn't it enough to just have a doctor take our pulse?"
His wife wasn't pregnant, and she hadn't checked these things, so naturally she didn't know what the hospitals here were like. She probably thought it was like in ancient times.
Xia Hua saw that he didn't understand, so she explained, "The hospitals here are different from those in ancient times. They are very large and are divided into traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine is the same as in ancient times, using pulse diagnosis."
"But Western medicine is different. It requires instruments to examine the body, like X-ray vision, which can clearly see whether the abdomen is pregnant or if there is any problem."
Although skilled TCM doctors can also diagnose these conditions, they are not many, unlike those using instruments, which even a mediocre nurse can understand.
Cheng Yumo nodded. It seemed that when he got back, he would have to go online to look up things to be careful about during pregnancy. Otherwise, if he was completely clueless when his wife got pregnant, it would cause a lot of trouble.
The group arrived at the hospital at 10:30 a.m., but they still had to wait another half hour. There were quite a few people there for check-ups, after all, it was a big hospital.
After waiting for half an hour, it was finally An Shuyi's turn. She told Cheng Yumo to wait outside, and Xia Hua went in with her, lay down on the bed, and waited for the doctor to examine her.
Shortly after the examination, the doctor told the couple that she was pregnant, but only a month along, and advised her to rest well and eat nutritious food.
The two looked at the image on the machine, not knowing how it could tell that she was pregnant, but the doctor couldn't be wrong. They were helped to sit up, dressed, and then went outside to wait for the results.
As soon as she stepped outside, she was met with two pairs of eyes pleading for her to know. An Shuyi had no choice but to nod. Trouble. Now she didn't know how to explain this to her parents.
