Chapter 109 Pregnant?
Chapter 109 Pregnant?
Wang Huiying snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry about me. I'm in good health."
Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "Thank you for thinking about us so much, but the medicine is really free, only a dozen yuan a day."
"A dozen dollars?"
Guan Lei remembered that in her previous life, it was clearly more than one yuan a day.
"Yes, the previous medicine had too many side effects, so we switched to imported medicine a long time ago."
Guan Lei's face turned red and white, and after a long while she said, "That's good. Your health is more important. You guys go ahead and do your work. I'll go to the construction site to see if the prefabricated house has been built."
The simple cabin was built that night.
A total of five rooms were built, Zhao Yang and Guan Lei occupied one, and the other four were shared by the remaining 19 people.
The interior of the board house is small and is equipped with several simple iron beds covered with thin straw mats.
There are some nails on the wall for hanging clothes.
There was only a 15-watt light bulb installed inside the board house.
The small windows mean poor ventilation.
After staying in there for a while, I felt chest tightness and shortness of breath.
But the workers were used to the hard life. They were already tired during the day and had no food to eat at night, so they fell asleep immediately.
Guan Lei tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, but she didn't dare go out alone, so she could only sit on the iron bed in frustration until dawn.
In days like this, she would probably die in just a few days, not a month.
She decided to use her special trick again.
The next morning, she told Zhao Yang that she felt uncomfortable in her stomach and might be pregnant.
Although Zhao Yang wanted her to earn some money, he didn't dare keep her when he heard that she was pregnant and sent her home that same day.
The cooking job was taken over by another woman in the village.
Zhao Yang's aunt Feng Zhuanqin has already gone back.
Guan Lei pretended to be very weak and pressed her belly.
Feng Zhuanxia was very happy to learn that her daughter-in-law was pregnant. After all, people of her age in the village already have grandchildren who are several years old.
But seeing her daughter-in-law's condition, she became a little worried, fearing that something might go wrong.
She asked Guan Lei to lie down in the room and rest, and not to do anything during this period. If she wanted to eat, she could just tell her. She also thoughtfully washed an apple for Guan Lei.
Guan Lei was chewing an apple, feeling extremely happy.
Feng Zhuanxia kindly asked her about the time of her last menstrual period, planning to take her to test the gender of the fetus as soon as the due date came.
Guan Lei thought about it and realized that it seemed like more than a month had passed since her last menstruation.
I guess she is really pregnant.
"That means it's 32 days, right? It's okay. We'll go get checked in ten days."
"Okay mom."
"Looking at your reaction, it must be a son. When I was pregnant with Zhao Yang, I was also weak and had no energy."
Guan Lei smiled shyly and said, "My mother was like this when she was pregnant with my brother."
"That's right. Mom is waiting for you to give birth to a big fat boy for our Zhao family. Whatever you want to eat, Mom will cook it for you."
"I don't feel hungry yet. I don't have much appetite."
Feng Zhuanxia asked mysteriously, "Do you want something sour or spicy?"
"I want something sour."
"Okay, great, Sour Boy, Spicy Girl, I'll go make you some sauerkraut noodles and add more vinegar."
Guan Lei nodded.
At this time, Zhao Mei and her family came in.
Zhao Mei hasn't returned to her parents' home for a long time since she left last time.
In the past, she often stayed at her parents' home. Even if she went back occasionally, she would come back again after two days.
What made Feng Zhuanxia even more incredible was that Zhao Mei did not come alone with the child, Zeng Zhuangzhi was also there.
Moreover, he was holding a lot of things in his hands.
Before Feng Zhuanxia could react, Zeng Zhuangzhi shouted, "Mom, we came to see you."
"what?"
"Oh, mom, what's wrong with you? Don't you recognize us? He He, call grandma quickly."
He He took out a candy from her pocket, ran over and said, "Grandma, please sit down. He He will give you something good."
Feng Zhuanxia squatted down and asked, "What is it?"
"Open your mouth." He He fed the candy to Feng Zhuanxia, then lifted her chin and said, "Okay, grandma, you can close your mouth now."
"It's so sweet, where did He He get the sugar?"
"I exchanged it with Dad's cigarettes. He He has lots of candies. If grandma wants to eat some, He He can bring her a few next time."
Feng Zhuanxia didn't expect that her son-in-law, a chain-smoking man, would actually exchange candy for his grandson.
Zeng Zhuangzhi scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Mom, I was wrong before. I have already apologized to Xiaomei. From now on, we will live a good life. Don't worry."
Feng Zhuanxia looked at Zhao Mei, who nodded and said, "Mom, he didn't lie. He has already given the money to me. I am in charge of the money now."
"Good, that's great. It's better than anything else that you can live a good life."
Zhao Mei said: "Speaking of which, I have to thank my sister-in-law's elder sister. It is because of her that Zhuangzhi became what he is now."
"Your sister-in-law? Guan Youshuang? Do you know each other?"
"We didn't know each other before, but we bumped into each other by chance at the market that day. She seemed to know my situation very well and told Zhuangzhi about my difficulties."
He He rushed to say: "She forced Dad to exchange cigarettes for candy."
Zhao Mei looked at her son tenderly and said, "Children should not interrupt when adults are talking."
Zeng Zhuangzhi nodded, put his arm around Zhao Mei's shoulders, and said, "Speaking of this, I feel like I was really a worthless person in the past."
Feng Zhuanxia said quickly: "Then don't talk about it, go sit inside, I'm preparing to make the臊子面."
Zhao Mei asked: "Where's my dad? And where's my sister-in-law?"
"Your father has gone to the fields and hasn't come back yet. Your sister-in-law is in the house." Feng Zhuanxia whispered, "She is pregnant, and she is suffering from morning sickness."
"Ah? So soon, that's great, I'll go see her."
"He He, follow your father to the main house. I'm going to go see your aunt."
After saying that, Zhao Mei came to Guan Lei's room.
In fact, Guan Lei heard everything that was said just now.
She was so angry. She was angry at why she had to do with Youshuang in everything!
She was so angry that Guan Youshuang didn’t have the ability to let Zhao Mei live a normal life again!
She felt her heart was choked with anxiety and she couldn't help feeling nauseous.
When Zhao Mei came in, she just happened to dry heave.
"Sister-in-law, your reaction is so serious, let me pour you some water."
Guan Lei nodded.
Zhao Mei handed over the water, sat on the edge of the bed, and said, "Sister-in-law, your sister is really amazing. She wants to build an embroidery factory and it started today."
Guan Lei didn't say anything. She didn't want to talk about Guan Youshuang at all.
That heartless dead woman!
Zhao Mei continued, "She even asked me to work at her embroidery factory and said she would pay me a salary. I was so happy. I never thought that one day I would be able to make money from sewing."
"Yeah." Guan Lei said perfunctorily.
"Sister-in-law, you should be good at sewing, right? You should take good care of your pregnancy now. You can come with me after your morning sickness is over."
