Chapter 354: Suspected Pregnancy
Han Yunxiao has been busy with things in the barracks for the past few days, and he hasn't been home for a few days. Although the others were not there, they still couldn't send people back every day to inquire about Qin Xiang's condition.
Last summer, although it was not as hot as this year, was not easy.
I still remember that the lady sold fried chicken in a stall under the big sun, and then had the first storefront, Han Yunxiao couldn't stop feeling distressed.
He also wanted to persuade her to stay at home and be his wife in peace. But Han Yunxiao also knows that she likes to do this. Therefore, he could only wait silently aside.
On this day, he could finally go home, but he had only thought that when he entered the door, he heard an exclamation from inside. He was stunned, and then hurriedly opened the curtain and entered the door, just as he saw the panic scene in the room.
Time to go back to lunch.
Today's Qin Xiang still didn't have lunch on time.
She had a poor appetite and had a hard time eating. Especially in the middle of the day, the weather is hot, and I can't eat anymore. Therefore, the highlight is the noon meal, and the cooks exhaust their skills just to please the hostess.
A full table of meals, each dish with great effort. Even if it's just an ordinary side dish, it's not ordinary. For example, a dish of shredded bamboo shoots uses the sharp tips of tender bamboo shoots, take only a little, blanch and cut into thin strips.
A bowl of vegetable soup that looks bland is made with an old hen hanging soup to enhance freshness.
There are also some delicious or precious ingredients, all on this table.
There is also the dumpling that Qin Xiang suddenly wanted to eat, which was the pork and celery filling she requested.
During this period, there were no dumplings, so this dumpling is original.
There aren't many things, but everything is very exquisite. It seems ordinary, but even the old emperor in the palace may not be as fine as Qin Xiang's food.
The portions of each one are not large, just so that she can choose the flavor she wants to eat.
Pepe was a little nervous, and sweat was oozing from the corners of her forehead.
"Ma'am, try this hors d'oeuvres."
The bamboo shoots are mixed with balsamic vinegar and sesame oil and chili oil, which tastes sour and delicious. The tenderness and crispness of the bamboo shoots, combined with the acidity of balsamic vinegar, can awaken the sleeping taste buds well.
Qin Xiang was indeed a little hungry, so he grabbed a pair of chopsticks. Then, another pair of chopsticks.
Pepe's gaze softened more and more, and the gaze that looked at Qin Xiang was like a mother looking at her own child. In fact, the efforts she has spent on Qin Xiang recently are indeed like a mother taking care of her children. But even so, it was difficult to make Qin Xiang have an appetite.
Qin Xiang felt everyone's worries, and helplessness and irritability slowly surged in his heart. She is not a very hypocritical person, she is pretentious and self-sufficient, and she can't toss others. Although she is hungry, she is not a gluttonous and wasteful person, and she has never had a precedent of removing the prepared food and not eating it.
However, the weather is hot, the physical discomfort, and the irritability in the heart will inevitably affect the mood. The whole person is like a firecracker that ignites the fuse, and it may explode at any time and go directly to the sky.
The bamboo shoots were indeed sour and delicious, and his appetite was a little opened, Qin Xiang couldn't help but sit up straight, and stretched out his chopsticks to the plate of dumplings.
Chef Hu is a careful person, and the dumplings are small and round. Each one is just a bite, each is like an ingot, white and tender, round and cute.
And she also has her own creativity in cooking, not only white dumplings, but also pumpkin juice and vegetable juice to make dumplings of other colors.
Through the thin skin, you can see the emerald filling inside. When you get closer, you can see the umami flavor created by mixing celery and pork.
Maybe the bamboo shoots were really appetizing, Qin Xiang was a little unappetizing, and he was hungry when he saw this plate of dumplings. Pick up a fat white dumpling and take a bite. The thin skin is torn open, and the meat filling gushes in the soup, and the taste is simply unstoppable. She had eaten one unconsciously, and she was even a little unsatisfied.
Pepe's eyes widened, his fists clenched, and his breathing was a little rapid.
Qin Xiang felt a little thirsty in his throat, put down his chopsticks, and picked up the spoon.
The six old hens had been stewed for twelve hours, and even the meat had to melt into the soup. The chicken broth was greasy, and the minced chicken was used to remove the greasy, and finally the mushroom was re-cooked. When it's time to use, scoop out a cup of the handicap, add vegetables, put it in the steamer, and steam it slightly to make a delicious dish.
Such a refreshing and delicious soup must taste very delicious. Qin Xiang scooped a spoonful and tasted it, and it tasted really good. But suddenly, she felt that there was an unbearable strange smell in the soup. A wave of nausea came from his stomach, and he reflexively threw away the spoon in his hand and hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief.
Pepe saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly brought a silver spit bowl with grape patterns. When Qin Xiang saw it, he held his saliva and vomited it out, until he vomited out the acid water in his stomach, and his throat burned for a while, as if he was only a little better.
She used to be strong and used to being alone, fever and vomiting were trivial things, even if she broke her leg, she called an ambulance by herself. The next day after the plaster cast, I didn't go to work as usual. But she felt nothing, and the people around her were like the sky had fallen.
Before Pepe could say anything, someone outside opened the curtain and came in, took the water from her hand, and helped Madame stroke her back.
"What's going on?" Han Yunxiao rinsed her mouth with water while wiping away the teardrops oozing from the corners of her eyes. "But what's wrong with eating? How did Madame suffer so much? Can you get a doctor? ”
A series of questions almost blinded Pepe.
Qin Xiang had already relieved himself, and waved his hand tiredly to let the servants go down, and then looked at him, "What doctor, please?" It's just that it's hot, and I'm suffering from heat stroke. Probably because the chicken soup is so greasy that I can't stand it after taking a bite. The dumplings I ate before were good, and they were fine at all. Don't keep a straight face, scare everyone. "Cow Bar Literature Network
Pepe had just gone out with a saliva bowl, and when she heard this, she pursed her lips and smiled.
She used to serve the Zhang family, but she was later sold and entered the Han Mansion. The general and his wife are really different from ordinary couples. What respect is fake, and raising eyebrows is even more hypocritical, only such affection is enviable.
"I'll just take a break." Qin Xiang stretched out his hand and said lazily, "Help me go to bed and lie down for a while." ”
Han Yunxiao hurriedly picked her up, carefully put her on the bed, and looked at her face again, her frowning brows still not stretched.
Qin Xiang glanced at her and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief.
"You're in a hurry, you're sweating all over, and it stinks on me."
Han Yunxiao reflexively sniffed, and heard her laugh with a puff: "Lie to you, you really believe it." Have you eaten? I'll let the kitchen prepare it for you. ”
"I'll eat this." He looked at the food that was laid out in the room.
Qin Xiang frowned and waved his hand: "No, that room is full of smells, where is there still appetite." ”
Don't say that he doesn't dislike it, she has to dislike herself. Although the food I just ate was vomited, there was a sour smell when I vomited. Fortunately, the taste is not too rushed, otherwise I would really be ashamed.
"It used to be common to eat in a sea of corpses and blood, but I don't have to be so hypocritical." Han Yunxiao touched her face, found that it was a little hot, and hurriedly picked up the fan. "I'm not here for a few days, why do you seem to have lost weight again."
Qin Xiang glanced at him with disgust, and his delicate lips moved, "Don't let me be slender and moving." ”
Han Yunxiao glared at her disapprovingly, "You are already delicate enough, if you lose weight, you will only have bones left." ”
When Qin Xiang heard this, he burst out laughing again.
In modern China, girls are white and thin, and plump girls are prone to some bad comments. White and thin has become the mainstream aesthetic, and I have to say that this is a regressive manifestation of the aesthetic trend.
But in terms of the preference of males for females, they prefer fuller women. This is written into the genes, a true manifestation of reproduction.
I didn't see that her father-in-law also wanted a delicate and plump beauty.
"What? You don't like it when I'm thin? ”
Han Yunxiao has not been baptized by love culture, and he also feels the deep meaning of this sentence. Although he thinks it's better for her to be a little fatter, it's not necessarily a good thing to be too thin.
When the words came to his lips, he became: "I like you no matter what you look like, but I prefer you to be healthy and healthy." ”
Qin Xiang felt a sweetness in his heart when he heard this, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Count you as acquaintances." Don't take care of me here, with Pepe, you can go eat. ”
Pei Pei changed Qin Xiang into a clean dress, wiped her body again, and then helped her to the bed.
Qin Xiang noticed that her expression was a little apprehensive, and she looked like she wanted to speak and stopped, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Pepe bit her lip and whispered, "The slave maid should ask a doctor to come back." ”
"I'm really fine." Qin Xiang laughed: "You guys are too nervous. ”
"It's not that the slave maid is making a big fuss, but ......" Pepe is an unmarried yellow flower girl after all, and her face turned a little red, "The slave just suspects that the lady is pregnant." The wife who used to serve the slave was also a sign when she was pregnant. What's more, Madame's little day has not come for some time. ”
Others don't know Madame's body, but isn't it clear that she's a personal maid? Although she has only been taking care of her husband for a month, she is not on leave. She took care of Madame's daily life, and Miss Xiaoyu also explained a lot, and she had the heart to write it down.
Knowing that his wife's body did not look good, he told the kitchen to make more digestible and nourishing food. It stands to reason that there shouldn't be anything wrong with the body.
Moreover, the wife and the general have been married for many years and have never had children. If Pepe hadn't known that the two had had sex together, he would have been worried. Mrs. has never drunk the soup of the child, why can't she be pregnant?
As soon as she said this, Qin Xiang was a little stunned.
She's pregnant?
Qin Xiang was suspicious at first, and then refused.
She was about to start her new business, and it was not a good thing to be pregnant at this time. What's more, she wasn't ready to be a mother at all.
It's so hard to be a mother, and raising a baby is very different from raising two children.
Exhaled, Qin Xiang comforted himself in his heart, and also said to Pepe: "My body has always been not very good, most of it is really past the summer heat, and it should be fine when this heat passes." Don't make a big fuss, it's a joke to go back. ”
When Pepe thought about it, he thought it made sense.
She had also heard people say before that the wife or aunt of a certain family had asked for a doctor after suspecting that she was pregnant, but the result was that they themselves were too eager and became a laughing stock.
