Chapter 616: Chapter 616: Do You Know Them?

"The doctor said the last few months are the critical period. I’ve seen you not sleeping well these past nights, so hand over the tasks to them. You can get some rest, and as for the Lin Family, if there’s anything, let them come to me," he won’t bother with his wife’s pride.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you."

Lin Chuxia leaned against his chest, listening to his heartbeat, feeling unusually at ease.

..................

The next day, Qin Yang took a leave from work and specially took Lin Chuxia to the hospital.

In this era, prenatal care wasn’t as standardized and frequent as it later became, and there wasn’t the concept of building a medical file.

After confirming pregnancy, as long as nothing went wrong, there was almost no need for frequent hospital visits.

Especially in their hometown, many people never went to the hospital from pregnancy to childbirth.

When labor started, they would call the midwife to their home, and many children were born on the heated kang bed.

Even more dramatically, some gave birth directly in the field while working.

This being Lin Chuxia’s first pregnancy, with no elders around to guide, Mrs. Qin repeatedly reminded them to be cautious once they learned of the pregnancy.

Since finding out Lin Chuxia was pregnant, Qin Yang had crammed a lot about women getting pregnant and giving birth. The more he learned, the more alarmed he became, finding it increasingly treacherous.

So from the beginning, he paid special attention to Lin Chuxia, never neglecting the hospital checkups.

Lin Chuxia could sense his unease, and since this child was something she’d longed for over two lifetimes, she too sought optimal prenatal care; on this matter, they were in agreement.

Doctor Wang was already an old acquaintance of theirs.

She first inquired about Lin Chuxia’s recent condition and then used a stethoscope to listen to her abdomen.

Finally, she had her lie on the bed and gently pressed her abdomen with both hands, constantly changing positions.

After the whole set of checks was complete, she smiled faintly, "Mr. Lin’s fetus is in good shape, and the child is very healthy. They have already started engaging, and the fetal position looks right. As it’s said, optimal prenatal care depends significantly on the woman’s good health."

Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia both breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Doctor Wang.

At that moment, another doctor’s voice came from the side, "Have you been doing the exercises I told you? Last time I mentioned your fetal position wasn’t correct, and you need to spend time daily on all fours before engagement. It’s been over half a month now, and there’s been no change. Have you been following my instructions?"

This examination room had two rooms with two doors, with two gynecologists examining pregnant women.

There was only a curtain separating them.

While Lin Chuxia was being examined, they could hear some movements from the other side.

This situation was quite normal.

Seeing Lin Chuxia being drawn by the voices next door, Doctor Wang spoke a few more words to her, "Your situation is different from hers, so there’s no need to worry. However, since the baby is moving at any time around this period, it would be best to return for another check-up in about half a month, so we can adjust as necessary."

"If the fetal position is indeed incorrect, can adjusting posture really help?"

Lin Chuxia didn’t have any experience with pregnancy or childbirth. In those early years, she was busy with business, and no one talked to her about these things.

Later on, with the advancement of medicine, if the fetal position was incorrect, a C-section was entirely feasible, posing little danger to the mother.

So she was quite curious about the methods used by gynecologists in this era.

For instance, this doctor who just examined her could determine the baby’s position just by feeling her belly.

Judging from his wife’s earlier expression, she obviously recognized the couple.

Lin Chuxia gave a cold laugh, "The man is Wang Tianxue’s ex-husband, and that woman was the mistress when he had an affair back then."

Qin Yang naturally knew Wang Tianxue too, and also let out a cold laugh, "What a fool."

How could he not be a fool?

When the couple walked past Lin Chuxia, she almost didn’t recognize Yang Rui.

His shirt was crumpled and even had stains on it.

It had only been about two years since she’d last seen him, and his skin had darkened several shades, with gray hair at the temples.

Clearly, life’s pressures were quite significant.

It was said he still hadn’t paid off the debt owed to the Department Store, and every day, besides working in the warehouse, he would set up a stall after work.

While Yang Lili, although pregnant, looked very different from before, her outfit suggested she hadn’t faced much hardship.

She mocked, "It seems she’s enjoying herself. Left and right she’s pampered, and no first wife can compare to genuine love."

In this regard, she really admired Yang Rui.

She remembered the first time she met Yang Rui, he was the head of the procurement department at the Department Store, standing alongside Manager Wang, full of vigor.

It was a world of difference compared to the person they’d just seen.
