Zhang Xiaoshan saw Ge Xiue's troubled expression and knew that it must be some secretive illness. She said to Ge Xiue with patience.
"Sister-in-law Xiue, the patient should not hide from the doctor. Go ahead and speak, there are no strangers here anyway."
Ge Xiue's cheeks turned red as she clenched her teeth and said.
"Alright then, I'll tell you, but you mustn't laugh at your sister-in-law Xiue. I, I haven't had my period for two months..."
"Ah?"
Zhang Xiaoshan was momentarily stunned upon hearing Ge Xiue's words.
"No period for two months? Well, doesn't that mean you're pregnant?"
Ge Xiue immediately became guilty as she spoke to Zhang Xiaoshan.
"My, my husband has been away for several months now, I, I..."
"Ah?"
Zhang Xiaoshan was even more shocked to hear this news.
If Ge Xiue's husband had been away for several months, that meant nothing could have happened between them. So how could Ge Xiue be pregnant?
