Ni Jiu (Intoxicated) - Chap 35
This week’s physical exam is a little longer than usual.
Lian Jue specially arranged a medical room for Shen Tingwei in the villa, with all the built-in equipment, Shen Tingwei was lying flat on the medical bed, and his heartbeat was very fast.
He couldn’t help asking the doctor for the third time, “Can you see it?”
The doctor smiled helplessly at him: “Wait a minute, don’t worry, the month is too young, and your body is still thin, so the embryo is also small, and the location is not easy to find.”
Shen Tingwei had to wait and asked nervously, “Will it affect the child because I am too thin?”
“No, some people just don’t eat fat, as long as they keep up with nutrition.” The doctor stared at the screen of the machine and chatted with him to ease his nervousness. “Have you been vomiting a lot lately?”
“It’s better.” Shen Tingwei said, “I just often feel tired and lack energy.”
“Drowsiness, right? It’s ok, it’s normal.” The doctor said, “There may be a headache after a while, just pay more attention to rest.”
After a while, the doctor suddenly said, “Yes.”
Shen Tingwei held his breath subconsciously, staring at the black and white screen on the display.
The doctor pointed to the screen and showed him: “Here, do you see it?”
The picture on the monitor was very dark, and an inconspicuous white shadow was wrapped in the dark mist.
“He’s curled up now.” The doctor stretched his fingers to show him, “Look, the round part here is the baby’s head, the hands and feet are here, it’s not very obvious…”
Shen Tingwei stared at the group of small things that could not be seen clearly and nodded blankly.
“The embryo is developing very well, the skull has a complete halo, and the spine is arranged in a continuous and regular manner. The current heart rate is about beats per minute, which is very healthy.”
Shen Ting didn’t turn his eyes to the doctor, and asked in a daze, “Heartbeat?”
“Yes, I’ll pick up the sound for you to listen to.” The doctor skillfully operated the machine twice, “The sound may be a little low, and you can hear a very clear heartbeat in about a week, okay—”
An indistinct sound came from the machine, the rhythm was fast and muffled, and it sounded regularly in the quiet consulting room like the hands of a clock.
“Plop, plop, plop…”
Shen Tingwei’s breathing seemed to stop for a while, his mouth opened slightly, and his eyes were fixed on the unclear screen on the monitor.
The picture swayed gently with the movement of the detector attached to his lower abdomen by the doctor, Shen Tingwei’s heart seemed to be slammed by something, his breathing suddenly became fast again, his heartbeat was also fast, and he was next to his ear. Nothing could be heard except a low, powerful heartbeat from the machine.
The scene that he thought he couldn’t see suddenly became vivid.
He tried to observe the head, hands, and feet of the fetus according to the place pointed by the doctor, but he felt that the picture in front of him suddenly became illusory.
Shen Tingwei cried unpromisingly.
He raised his hand and wiped it on his face, then pulled his cuff and pressed it against his eyes, but when he opened his eyes again, it was still wet.
The doctor had probably seen more in the hospital, and said understandably: “It’s amazing, after a while, the baby will grow up slowly, and he will be able to see his facial features clearly. , very interesting.”
Shen Tingwei’s tears couldn’t stop, he wanted to say thank you, but couldn’t make a sound because his throat was so tight.
The doctor took a piece of tissue from the side and handed it to him: “If you stay in a happy mood, the baby will be healthier, don’t cry.”
Shen Tingwei took two tissues and pressed them to his eyes. After a long while, he choked and said, “…Okay, okay.”
After the doctor left, Shen Ting did not go back to the room to wash his face.
His nose and eyelids were red, and he washed twice with warm water but failed to relieve the soreness of his eyes. He looked at himself in the mirror, lifted the hem of his clothes, and exposed his slightly protruding belly in front of the mirror.
The picture just now still remains in my mind, which is strange to say. When I see it in my eyes, it is clearly a very hazy picture, but when it comes to my mind, it becomes clear.
Small hands and feet, curled up like a little monster.
– A lively, heartbeat little monster.
Shen Ting didn’t cover it with the palm of the water vapor and heat, he couldn’t feel anything, but he seemed to feel everything.
It’s a real feeling of being alive in this world.
When I came out of the bedroom, the indescribable sour feeling in my nose turned into full of joy.
Sitting on the sofa, he turned on his mobile phone, and pulled out the fetal heartbeat video recorded with the doctor’s permission. After listening to it several times, he suddenly understood the phenomenon of fancy baby showers that was always complaining on the Internet.
Shen Tingwei thought that he also had this potential, and the ‘disease’ was more serious, but after hearing the fetal heartbeat, he couldn’t hold back the feeling he wanted to share.
But he couldn’t find anyone to share with.
Thinking of this, the joy that filled his heart suddenly turned blank for a moment.
Shen Ting didn’t look at the chat box on the phone where the last conversation stopped half a month ago, half hesitantly half expecting to send the video to Lian Jue.
“I heard the baby’s heartbeat today.”
Shen Tingwei originally wanted to say this, but felt that this sentence seemed too intimate, so he chose to swipe up to cancel the sending, and sent another photo of the color Doppler ultrasound to Lian Jue, and reported the fetus to Lian Jue in a well-behaved manner. inspection results.
He didn’t know what he was expecting, expecting even Jue to be as happy as him?
He thought he was too strong.
Shen Ting didn’t wait for a long time, but Lian Jue’s WeChat did not come back. Maybe I was busy with something and didn’t see it, or maybe I saw it and didn’t want to reply.
Shen Tingwei didn’t know, and didn’t think about it.
Although he didn’t want to admit it, he didn’t seem to be as happy as he had been at the beginning.
He cooked a great lunch for himself, and while eating it, Chang Xing sent him a link.
“What?” He hadn’t opened it yet.
“Qingyuan Mountain Travel Guide!” Chang Kai said excitedly, “I saw it on a travel blogger, checked it out, and it’s only 00 kilometers away from us, can you start?”
Shen Ting didn’t go out for a long time, and was a little excited, but hesitant to hear the destination: “Climbing a mountain?”
“Whatever you want to climb, you can go straight up on the ropeway. It’s better to kill me if you let me climb the mountain!”
Shen Ting, who was exposed, said angrily: “Not yet, I’m eating, I’ll see now.”
“Just see if you want to go. It’s mainly because there is a huge and beautiful homestay on the mountain. You can watch the sunrise in the morning, and there is an outdoor Internet celebrity restaurant next to it. I want to check in.”
Shen Ting didn’t click and read this two-day and one-night tour guide for Qingyuan Mountain. It was written in great detail, from the special farmhouse dishes at the foot of the mountain, to the snacks and homestay environment on the top of the mountain, the price, and the location of the hiking trails and ropeways. Shen Ting did not carefully read the map sent by the blogger. There is a ropeway from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside. After walking down the first ropeway and walking a few hundred meters, you can see the entrance of the second ropeway, which leads directly to the homestay on the top of the mountain.
This week’s physical examination has been completed, and the doctor will not come back until next week for the next examination. Shen Ting didn’t think that there was nothing else to do at home, so he said to Chang Kai, “Okay, when will we leave?”
“Now? Otherwise, there will be a lot of people on the weekend. I don’t know if I can book a room or not.” The news of Chang Xing quickly came back.
“Okay, I’m going to clean up.” Shen Tingwei said.
“Okay, okay, I’ll clean up as well.” Chang happily replied.
After a while, she sent another voice: “How do we get there? Can you drive?”
Shen Tingwei was about to go upstairs to clean up, when he heard the voice from her, his footsteps paused on the stairs, and he was stunned for a moment.
He can drive, but his driver’s license is not universal in this world – on the other hand, the unpleasant experience of driving last time made him have a little psychological shadow on driving, and he really didn’t want to recall it.
“No.” Shen Tingwei paused and said, “I don’t have a driver’s license.”
“I have a book, but I have a book, but I haven’t opened it for a long time… You tell me your location, and I’ll go pick you up.”
“Ah.” Before Shen Ting finished listening to the first half of her sentence, she asked worriedly, “…Then can you drive safely?”
“Safety is definitely safe, but it’s slow, it’s slow…” Chang smiled happily, “My father said that I would just take a walk with the old lady when I drive. I estimate that our two-hour journey will take half a day, you don’t mind. Just fine.”
Shen Tingwei sighed and said, “It’s okay.”
He sent his location to Chang Kai, and Chang Kai replied with a cartoon expression of [Maomao OK], Shen Ting did not go upstairs to pack up.
He only stayed for one night and didn’t need to bring many things. Shen Ting did not simply pack a change of clothes and daily necessities, but also found a loose-fitting knitted sweater to cover his belly-although his pregnant belly was not yet obvious. , even if people notice it, they won’t think about it at all.
After packing up and going downstairs, Shen Tingwei took some snacks and packed them up. By the way, he poured out the stick bone soup cooked in the morning, poured it into the thermos, and planned to share it with Chang happy on the road – in case it really opened. It’s half a day.
After finishing these trivial things, I sat on the sofa and waited for Chang to be happy.
After thinking for a while, he still took out his mobile phone and called Lin Chen, wanting to inform the other party that he was going out for the next two days, so that he would not leave when he came.
Outgoing calls are not answered until they hang up automatically.
Shen Tingwei was a little surprised, and he thought of Lian Jue’s unanswered WeChat message, guessing that they might be busy with business, so he decided not to bother, and told Lin Chen later in the evening.
The forty-minute journey from the urban area to the southern suburbs took Chang happy an hour to arrive.
After Shen Ting did not receive her call, he checked the water and electricity in the house to make sure that it was closed, and then locked the door and went out. Chang Xin was standing at the gate, stunned at the house where Shen Tingwei lived.
“Weiwei, you also said that you didn’t come to experience life!” Chang Kai was almost dumbfounded, “No, it’s a shame that I used to worry about whether you would be fed or warm every day, but you actually live here! This floor tile Put a tire on me?!”
Shen Ting was not amused by her exaggeration. He was not a liar. Except for some unavoidable circumstances, he thought there was no need to hide other things from her. After getting into the car, he explained to her: “This is not my house.”
“Ah?” Chang Kai was stunned for a while, “Then why do you live here and rent it? You can’t, I don’t think I can afford to rent here for a month with a year’s salary…”
It’s not easy to explain why he lives here. Shen Ting didn’t think about it for a while, and felt that it was inappropriate to use “lover” or “husband” to describe Lian Jue, so he had to learn Lian Jue’s way of introducing him. Say, “This is my partner’s house.”
Chang Xingxing was fastening his seat belt, when he heard this, he suddenly turned his head to look at him: “Damn, are you married?!”
Before Shen Tingwei nodded, she suddenly leaned back and pulled the distance between herself and Shen Tingwei very far: “Damn it, then it’s not appropriate for the two of us to go out for the night alone. Come on! Your wife won’t kill me!”
Shen Tingwei couldn’t help laughing and said, “It’s okay. He shouldn’t mind – he’s very busy and doesn’t really restrict who I associate with.”
Chang Xingxin took a long breath and started the car slowly.
“Ah, isn’t it really the little sister who lost the necklace last time?” She complained dissatisfiedly while guessing, “People in our library joked that you have to fight for 0 years less, and I still I swear that you are not that kind of person – ah no, you didn’t say that you are that kind of person, that sister is very beautiful and has a good personality – I mean why don’t you tell me such a big thing? Don’t you think of me as a friend…”
Chang Kai frowned and thought about it. Seeing that the more she guessed, the more boundless she became, Shen Tingwei could only interrupt her helplessly: “No.”
“Ah? Not what?”
Shen Tingwei said, “it’s not her, it’s… her brother.”
Chang Kai slammed on the brake, Shen Tingwei rushed forward due to the inertia of the sudden brake, and quickly grabbed the front passenger’s handle to stabilize his body.
Chang Kai was turning his head to look at him, the expression on his face changed from dissatisfaction to shock: “She, brother?!”
