Su Yuehua was still a little worried about Li Yumei. As soon as she got off the kang, she saw her coming back from outside with a pale face.
"Are you okay, sister-in-law?"
Facing Su Yuehua's concerned eyes, Li Yumei seemed particularly embarrassed. She said apologetically, "Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry. I can't enjoy the delicious mutton you cooked."
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to apologize to me. If you can't get used to mutton, just eat something else." After Su Yuehua finished speaking, she lowered her head and found that the full plate of cumin mutton had been almost eaten up by Shen Chengyi and his nephew.
Shen Xiaohu raised his hand to wipe his greasy mouth, stretched out his hand to pick up a piece of braised pork and put it into Li Yumei's bowl, "Mom, grandma's braised pork is also delicious. You don't like mutton, so leave it for me."
When Li Yumei saw the greasy braised pork in the bowl, her stomach churned.
"Sister-in-law, this refreshing cabbage mixed by mother is very delicious. You can eat some to relieve your tiredness." Su Yuehua noticed that she was acting strange and reminded her.
"Hmm!" Li Yumei was just about to eat something sour, but after hearing Su Yuehua's reminder, she reached out and picked up a piece of refreshing cabbage with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
The refreshing taste of cabbage, the hint of sweetness from carrots, and the addition of vermicelli instantly suppressed the discomfort in the stomach.
The sweet and sour taste with a hint of spiciness makes you unable to stop eating after one bite.
Li Yumei took several big bites and realized that she had eaten almost half of the plate of cold dishes. She quickly put down her chopsticks and said, "I don't know what's wrong with me today. I feel sick just looking at these meat dishes. Instead, I think the sour and sweet cabbage mixed with mother is delicious."
Bai Xiuying put down her chopsticks and asked with concern: "Yumei, didn't you dislike eating cold dishes? You said that you felt uncomfortable in your stomach after eating them."
After listening to Bai Xiuying, Su Yuehua became more certain of her guess and asked tentatively, "Sister-in-law, when did your period come?"
"My period ended two years ago. Why did you think of asking me about it, sister-in-law?" After saying this, Li Yumei looked at Su Yuehua with a puzzled look on her face.
Seeing Li Yumei's expression, Su Yuehua finally realized that it was the 1970s and her period was just her period. She lowered her voice and explained, "Sister-in-law, I'm asking about your period."
The kang table is so small that even if Su Yuehua speaks very quietly, others can still hear it.
Shen Chengyi's hand, which had just picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks, trembled. This was not something his brother-in-law could hear, but he was sitting next to Su Yuehua, so he could only pretend not to hear it and continued to pick up the food.
"Second uncle, you ate all the cumin lamb fried by second aunt, and you didn't even let go of the last piece." As soon as Shen Xiaohu stretched out his chopsticks, they were taken away by Shen Chengyi, and his whole little face was puffed up.
Shen Chengzhong was the first to react, and his honest face was instantly dyed with a smile, “Sister-in-law, do you mean that your sister-in-law is pregnant?”
"Brother, I'm not sure either, so I asked my sister-in-law about the specific date of her period. Of course, we have to go to the hospital for a check-up." Su Yuehua didn't dare to guarantee such a thing. What if there was a deviation from the story in the book?
But Li Yumei just believed her without thinking, "Sister-in-law, I don't trust anyone but you. You just said it this morning, and I'm pregnant now."
What do you mean you got pregnant just after I finished speaking? It seemed like it was me who made you pregnant. Su Yuehua was really speechless.
As Li Yumei was talking, tears started to flow down her cheeks. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears and said in a trembling voice, "I haven't had my period since I finished the autumn harvest. I thought I was tired. Sister-in-law, I have a feeling that you are definitely pregnant this time."
As she spoke, Li Yumei already had her hands on her lower abdomen.
The autumn harvest will not be over until October at the latest. It is the end of January now, so it has been four months.
Su Yuehua couldn't help but sigh that people nowadays are so strong. She looked at Li Yumei's lower abdomen unconsciously.
Bai Xiuying's eyes were slightly red, and she asked softly, "Yuehua, your sister-in-law is really pregnant."
"Mom, I'm not sure now." Su Yuehua hesitated for two seconds, turned to look at Li Yumei and said, "Sister-in-law, go to my room and I'll check you."
"Then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law." Li Yumei was eager to confirm whether she was pregnant. She jumped off the kang, and Shen Chengzhong's heart almost jumped out of his throat. "Mother, go slower."
Su Yuehua led Li Yumei back to the room and motioned for her to take off her coat.
She was wearing thick clothes in winter and didn't pay attention to Li Yumei's figure at all. It was only when she took off her clothes that she discovered that Li Yumei had such a nice figure under her slim body.
Li Yumei felt a little embarrassed by Su Yuehua's naked gaze, but was afraid to make a sound and upset her.
Su Yuehua withdrew her gaze, pressed lightly on Li Yumei's stomach a few times, and found that there were obvious bumps and depressions on her abdomen.
Now she can basically conclude that Li Yumei is pregnant.
It’s just that I don’t eat well on a daily basis, so the baby is developing slowly and my belly is not very noticeable.
"Sister-in-law, am I really pregnant? I felt that I was gaining weight on my belly recently, and I thought I was gaining weight." Li Yumei looked at Su Yuehua's expression, and her heart was finally at ease. Even her voice was filled with joy.
The people outside the room were even more nervous than Li Yumei, and Shen Chengyi was so nervous that he paced at the door.
At this moment, Shen Chengzhong was already anxious, and he became even more anxious when he saw Shen Chengyi swaying in front of him, "Chengyi, I'm not nervous, why are you so nervous?"
"Brother, I..." Shen Chengyi swallowed the words back. He couldn't say directly that he was worried about Su Yuehua's temper, and...
The door of the room was suddenly opened, and Li Yumei came out first. When she saw Shen Chengzhong, she began to wipe her tears, "Xiaohu's father, my sister-in-law said that I'm pregnant, but it's not obvious because of the small month."
Shen Chengyi pursed his lips, but still walked to Su Yuehua worriedly, and reminded in a low voice: "Su Yuehua, are you sure? This is not a joke."
He knew too well how much his elder brother and sister-in-law were looking forward to having this baby, and he didn't want to cause any misunderstanding and disappoint them.
Su Yuehua glared at Shen Chengyi very unhappily when she heard his question.
What a joke, this is totally questioning her skills.
How could she not feel it after being pregnant for more than four months? If it wasn't a baby, then it was a growth.
She was too lazy to explain to Shen Chengyi, and reminded Shen Chengzhong: “Brother, after the New Year, you should take your sister-in-law to the hospital for a check-up.”
During the New Year, Su Yuehua didn't want to tell the Shen family about her worries and add to their troubles, so she could only give them a reminder.
"Sister-in-law, thank you so much. After the fifth day of the New Year, I will take your sister-in-law to the town hospital for a check-up." Shen Chengzhong was so excited that he danced with joy, and his voice was trembling.
Bai Xiuying smiled widely, "Yuehua, your sister-in-law is pregnant with this baby thanks to you."
Su Yuehua was really impressed by the logic of the Shen family. What did they mean by this pregnancy was all thanks to her? It seemed as if Li Yumei's pregnancy had nothing to do with Shen Chengzhong.
