It may be twins!
After checking Wang's pulse for the third time, Doctor Zhong was sure that she was pregnant. However, the pulse was a little confusing and he couldn't confirm if it was a single or multiple pregnancy.
Regardless, as an experienced doctor, he told his assumption to his patient so that they could be more careful about it to prevent any mishaps.
After all, if it were really twins, they should be more careful while taking care of the expecting mother.
"Doctor, thank you. Thank you so much!" Mr. Xu stood up and thanked the doctor. As for Youngest Xu, he was so happy that he was stunned.
What did this mean?
If you didn't have any for three years, you got compensated with double the amount?
Mr. Xu continued chatting with Doctor Xu and also got the doctor to check on his wife. After making sure that everything was all right, Mr. Xu was even more delighted.
If Wang was really pregnant with twins, the Xu family would have three additional members in the family.
A big family was a prosperous family.
"Sir, would it be possible for you to check on my wife as well? It's been two years since we had a child..."
While everyone else was immersed in their own happiness, Eldest Xu invited Doctor Zhong to his room.
"I understand, let me have a look."
Soon, Doctor Zhong was checking Zhou's pulse.
"This… This is good news!"
When they heard Doctor Zhong, the couple was confused. "What?"
"That's right, you're pregnant! Congratulations! You're going to be a father again!"
When Doctor Zhong congratulated Eldest Xu in a firm tone, he immediately jumped and hugged the doctor.
Doctor Zhong was shocked by Eldest Xu's sudden gesture. As he came back to his senses, he suddenly remembered his poor back.
"AY… AY… MY BACK!"
As Eldest Xu calmed down, he gently placed Doctor Zhong back onto the ground and asked about his wife's condition. If it weren't for this, they wouldn't even have known that Zhou was two months pregnant.
After hearing what Doctor Zhong said, Eldest Xu became stunned as he questioned his wife, "Dear, why weren't you aware that you weren't getting your menses?"
Zhou frowned, saying, "I was too busy before this. I remember that I did bleed, but it wasn't much. I just assumed that it was because I was exhausted."
Doctor Zhong slapped his thigh after hearing her. "You careless woman! That wasn't your menses. You almost had a miscarriage!"
"Oh, doctor…" Eldest Xu was frightened as he heard Doctor Zhong's words. "Then… now… what…"
"Perhaps this child is lucky. Your wife's condition is good now. Both she and the baby are healthy. However, you should take good care of yourself from now on."
"Yes, yes. We will!" Eldest Xu continued asking, "Is there anything medication that she should be taking?"
"That won't be necessary. Every medicine comes with a small amount of poison. When there's a child in the mother's belly, it is best to avoid any medication."
"Yes, yes. Thank you, Doctor Zhong!"
Eldest Xu had gotten the fright of his life.
Zhou, on the other hand, felt guilty as well. She hadn't even realised something this major had happened.
When Eldest Xu told everyone about the good news of Zhou already being two months pregnant, Mr. and Mrs. Xu were both extremely happy.
Then, all of a sudden, everyone in the family turned and looked at Li, the second daughter-in-law of the Xu family.
"Mother, why are you all looking at me?"
Li felt uncomfortable being stared at by so many people.
"Doctor, please do check on my wife as well!" Second Xu's booming voice filled the room.
