Chapter 172 Ultrasound
The question of whether to accompany my father or my husband is as difficult to answer as asking who to save first if my mother and wife both fall into the water at the same time.
Zhan Xinyue was stunned. As smart as she was, she didn't know what to say. She just pretended she didn't hear and ate the oranges on the table.
The oranges of the 70s were sour with a little bit of sweetness. Zhan Xinyue took a few bites and found them more and more delicious.
When eating the fifth one, Ouyang Jie saw that his daughter was eating it with relish, so he peeled an orange out of envy.
He broke off a slice of orange and put it in his mouth. Before he started chewing, Ouyang Jie felt so sour that tears came to his eyes. He quickly spit it out and looked at Zhan Xinyue in surprise: "Daughter, doesn't it taste sour to you?"
"A little bit, but it's delicious." Zhan Xinyue continued eating.
After I got pregnant, I initially liked spicy food, but now I like both sour and spicy food. I have no other reactions except that I eat more and sleep more than before. I have never had morning sickness. It seems that the baby in my belly is very considerate of the mother.
"Xinyue, are you pregnant?" Ouyang Jie narrowed his eyes. He had never been pregnant, but when his sister-in-law was pregnant, she also loved to eat sour food.
Calculating the time, she should be almost two months pregnant now. Although it is less than three months, Ouyang Jie is not an outsider. Zhan Xinyue nodded and admitted it directly.
"Really?!" Ouyang Jie stood up excitedly and walked back and forth in the pavilion, rubbing his hands as he walked: "Great, our Ouyang family has a successor. I have to tell your grandfather right away."
"Dad, don't say anything yet." Zhan Xinyue hurriedly stopped him. After this baby is born, the surname Sheng must be given first. Grandma is old and it is uncertain how long she can live. After giving birth to the first baby, it is certain that she will have to rest for three years before having the second baby. And the second baby will also have the surname Shen.
Giving birth is painful. Maybe after giving birth to two children, Zhan Xinyue doesn’t want to have more children anymore?
She has the ability to make money and will leave hundreds of billions of wealth to her son in the future. Her son does not need to inherit the Ouyang family's business.
Moreover, with advanced technology in the future, it may be possible to develop an artificial womb. Ouyang Jie can completely use high technology to leave offspring.
"Okay, I was too excited." Ouyang Jie also thought of Zhan Xinyue and her in-laws. No matter what, the first child would not have the grandfather's surname.
However, as a father, he was still very happy that his daughter was pregnant, but his happiness was mixed with some worries.
"Xinyue, you are only 20 years old this year. This is your first pregnancy, so you must take good care of yourself."
After Ouyang Jie finished speaking, he made a gesture, and a bodyguard immediately stepped forward. Ouyang Jie instructed: "Contact your Brother Long and ask him to bring more supplements for pregnant women when he comes back. Oh, and ask him to bring an obstetrician. It would be best if he can bring equipment. You also need to bring a nutritionist."
Ouyang Jie thought for a moment and said, "As for air conditioners, water heaters, and washing machines, buy the best ones and ship them over. Also buy some maternity clothes and flat shoes. That's it for now. If I think of anything else later, I'll have the people over there send it over."
After that, Ouyang Jie said, "The eldest lady is pregnant, so I'll give each of you brothers a red envelope of 1000 yuan."
"Thank you, boss. Congratulations, Miss." The bodyguard went down happily. He had just taken a few steps when he was stopped by Ouyang Jie, "Wait a minute."
"Boss, please give me your orders."
"Tell your brother Long clearly that the eldest lady is pregnant. This will prevent him from having wild thoughts." Ouyang Jie knew that his little wolfdog was jealous, so it was better to make things clear in advance.
"Understood, don't worry." The bodyguard replied. Even if the boss didn't tell him, he would tell Brother Long the truth.
"Dad, you're exaggerating." Zhan Xinyue smiled and shook her head.
"I haven't even given birth yet, and yet you're mobilizing such a big fuss." In addition to big items like air conditioners, they actually brought two living people over.
"Of course my daughter should use the best." Ouyang Jie said as a matter of course.
"By the way, have you gone to the hospital for a check-up?" Ouyang Jie asked.
"Not yet. I'm a Chinese medicine practitioner. I'm sure you're pregnant, and the baby is very healthy." Zhan Xinyue replied.
"Yeah." Ouyang Jie took a sip of coffee, and after a few minutes, he said, "I think we should combine Chinese and Western medicine. Anyway, we have a car, and it's quick to go to the county hospital."
"That's fine." Zhan Xinyue also wanted to take a B-ultrasound to see how big the embryo was.
Now that the baby is still young, feeling the pulse can only tell whether the baby is alive. It is impossible to tell what shape or how old the baby is.
The three of them left as soon as they said they would, knowing that their daughter was pregnant. Ouyang Jie asked the bodyguard to drive the car as smoothly as possible.
Half an hour later, we arrived at the obstetrics department of the county hospital.
In the 70s, there were not many pregnant women coming for prenatal check-ups. Zhan Xinyue did not even have to queue up. She went straight to the doctor and told him that she wanted to have an ultrasound.
B-ultrasound is not covered by medical insurance and is expensive. The doctor did not prescribe it immediately, but took out the three treasures of obstetrics in the 70s: stethoscope, sphygmomanometer and thermometer, and began to operate on Zhan Xinyue.
Ten minutes later, the female doctor asked, "I just gave you a comprehensive examination and you are healthy in every aspect. B-ultrasound is very expensive and cannot be reimbursed. Are you sure you want to do it?"
"Thank you, doctor. I paid for the ultrasound myself because I wanted to see how old the baby is." Zhan Xinyue replied. This doctor is very responsible and considerate of the mother, so of course she should be thanked.
"Okay." The female doctor wrote out the bill in a flamboyant manner, "33 yuan in total."
The first B-ultrasound machine in China was not developed until 1980. Nowadays, all B-ultrasound machines are imported from abroad and are very expensive, costing RMB 30 each.
Therefore, the examination fee is very expensive, equivalent to a month's salary for an ordinary worker, and most of them are used by patients who have to undergo B-ultrasound. Very few pregnant women use it.
Sheng Tunan took the bill and went to pay.
After paying the fee, they went up to the testing room 303 on the third floor. Zhan Xinyue lay on the bed. The doctor applied coupling agent and searched back and forth on Zhan Xinyue's belly with the probe.
Five or six minutes later, the doctor was still staring at the screen with a frown on his face.
"Doctor, is there any problem?" Zhan Xinyue asked a little nervously. She knew that the current instruments were not as accurate as the color ultrasounds of later generations, but it was impossible that nothing could be seen in more than five minutes?
Is there something wrong with the fetus? ! !
