"What do you mean I can't feel her pulse for now?"
Feng Zhen almost went crazy when he heard the word "pregnant," but the doctor's next words hit him hard.
No one would complain about having too many children. After so many years, he was a father again. He was both happy and nervous, not knowing what to do. Poor medical knowledge told Feng Zhen that a woman's slippery pulse was pregnancy. The doctor said he couldn't feel her pulse, but then said she might be pregnant. He was confused.
"The slippery pulse is smooth and smooth, like a pearl rolling on a jade plate." The doctor had a good temper and explained patiently, "Usually, if a woman's pulse is slippery and she is not sick, then she is most likely pregnant. But slippery pulse only appears around two months of pregnancy, and it can't be felt if the month is too early. I asked the maids and learned that your wife's monthly letters are always on time, never late or early. But this month's letter was a few days late. There was some brown blood on her lower body, but it didn't seem like a monthly letter. So I concluded that she might be pregnant, but the month is too early and she is tired, so there are signs of miscarriage. To be safe, you should rest in bed for the next few days and drink something to protect the fetus. After a few days, we'll see if your wife's letter comes. "
The doctor didn't say too much, only saying it was possible.
The slippery pulse couldn't be the only indicator of pregnancy, because a man full of Qi and blood could also feel it.
Feng Zhen's brain stopped working and he stood there blankly. "If the letter comes in a few days …"
The doctor said, "Then it's not pregnancy. I will come again to feel your pulse and prescribe some medicine for your wife. A woman's letter cannot be ignored. If it ends too early or is messed up, it will easily cause the Yin and Yang in the body to be out of balance, causing puffiness, premature aging, and even a decrease in lifespan. "
Feng Zhen's mind was a mess after hearing this.
"Then is she pregnant or not?"
Feng Yi couldn't stand it anymore.
"Regardless of whether she is or not, let the doctor prescribe her medicine first."
After all, if they didn't take good care of her, they might lose their long-awaited child.
Feng Zhen was enlightened by his son and hurriedly said to the doctor, "Yes, yes, yes. Quickly prescribe the medicine, the best medicine …"
The doctor was used to big storms and didn't take Feng Zhen's loss of composure to heart.
When prescribing the medicine, Feng Zhen avoided his son, Feng Yi, and asked the doctor in a low voice.
"My wife had a child in the past, but she was tricked by a scoundrel into drinking a poisonous substance that caused her to have an abortion. Her vitality was greatly damaged, which worsened her condition of having a cold womb … If she really is pregnant this time, will it harm her body?" Feng Zhen's brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was hesitating about something.
It was true that Feng Zhen hoped for his legitimate son, but he also didn't want anything to happen to Wan Xiu 'er.
If he was really obsessed with having children, he wouldn't have only had Feng Yi for so many years.
"Your wife's body is indeed weaker than ordinary people, but it's not a problem for her to be pregnant. When I took your pulse just now, I found that the cold air in your wife's body was almost completely removed. It should have something to do with the years of meticulous care and recuperation. However … "The doctor paused for a moment.
Feng Zhen asked, "But what? Don't keep me guessing! "
"However, if I really get pregnant this time, I must keep it. A woman having a miscarriage is very harmful to her body and vitality, especially when your wife has accidentally eaten something poisonous … If she were to have another miscarriage, her body and bones might not be able to bear it. If she can't keep this child, the chances of having another child in the future are very slim. On the other hand, if she can successfully give birth and recuperate well after the birth, it can eliminate the hidden dangers in her body. "
Hearing the doctor say this, Feng Zhen's anxious heart calmed down a little.
"What happened to me?"
Wan Xiu 'er wanted to sit up after she woke up, but before she could do anything, Feng Zhen pushed her back down.
"The doctor said that your old illness is acting up again. You have to rest in bed for the next few days and rest well. You can't get up as you please."
Feng Zhen didn't say what the doctor had guessed. He didn't want to rejoice for nothing and make Wan Xiu 'er feel bad.
It was better to wait for her body to recover and confirm her pregnancy.
Wan Xiu 'er said, "Before I fainted, I did feel tired all over. Did the doctor say if it was serious?"
Feng Zhen said, "As long as you rest well, it won't be serious. I will send people to keep an eye on you for the next few days. No matter how important it is, you have to put it aside for now!"
Wan Xiu 'er smiled and said, "It's already the New Year. How can I miss out on the social interactions between families?"
Feng Zhen frowned. "That's not right. Your husband is right in front of you. How can he let you worry about these things?"
She was doubting his ability!
Wan Xiu 'er realized that the people around her had a strange attitude towards her. Feng Zhen, on the other hand, had his eyes glued to her body. Even if she made a big movement, he would turn pale with fright. Feng Yi, that child, greeted her every morning through the door. She kept asking about her health, whether she had an appetite today, and if there was anything she wanted to eat … Needless to say, the maidservants who served her were even worse.
Wan Xiu 'er was speechless.
She seemed to smell a "conspiracy."
It was as if everyone around her knew a common secret, but she was the only one keeping it from her.
Could it be that she had contracted some kind of terminal illness and was about to die? Was that why Feng Zhen and his son were so paranoid?
Wan Xiu 'er lay on the mattress for a few days. Her body felt weak. After a few more days, she was finally allowed to sit for a while.
"Could it be that I really have contracted an incurable disease?"
Wan Xiu 'er's heart sank. She never thought that she could be pregnant. The trauma left by that incident was too great. The child she had longed for for so long had only been in her belly for two months before her birth father forced her to abort her. The doctor told her that it would be difficult for her to have another child in this lifetime. Wan Xiu 'er tried to nurse her body and tried to give Feng Zhen one, but nothing happened.
After the New Year, Feng Yi didn't stay at home anymore. She moved to the dormitory in the Golden Scale Academy.
Feng Zhen didn't agree.
The dormitory in the Academy was good for ordinary people, but it couldn't compare to home.
Feng Yi smiled and said, "Son, you have to focus on preparing for the graduation exams. Even if you don't get first place, you have to be in the top three. That's a double blessing."
What double blessing?
Of course, it meant that he did well in the exams and his mother's pregnancy was stable.
"Father, I'll leave Mother in your care."
Feng Yi was worried. Her father was very attentive to work, but he was careless and careless when it came to family and personal life.
When Feng Zhen heard this, he said, "A real man must keep his word! If he doesn't do well, he should repent in front of his ancestors. "
In the past, he only had one precious child. He couldn't hit, punish, or scold him. Now that he had a new successor, he could do whatever he wanted.
Before the first month passed, the doctor came again.
Feng Zhen's muscles were tense, and his forehead was covered in sweat.
"How is it?"
The doctor cupped his fists and congratulated, "Congratulations, Sir. Your wife is already two months pregnant. Her pulse is strong and her pregnancy is stable."
Feng Zhen was mentally prepared, but he was still overjoyed.
Wan Xiu 'er was dumbfounded.
What?
She's pregnant?
