Back to 1984: Earning Money, Raising Kids, and Keeping the Household Busy

Chapter 292 Pregnant
Xu Kang and Xu Jian's expressions changed instantly. "Oh no, something's happened!"

The two brothers rushed over to check on the situation.

Zhou Miaoqing angrily pointed at Xu Jian and Xu Kang, demanding an explanation, "How old are you? How can you be so insensible? Don't you know you can't have a snowball fight facing the door? What if you hit a passerby?"

The two brothers were speechless and sheepishly lowered their heads to admit their mistake.

Lin Ying stepped forward, each of them giving Tang Jing a hard tug, and quickly went over to check on her injuries. "How are you? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

Tangtang, rubbing her dizzy head, quickly refused, "No need, no need. Luckily, I'm dressed warmly, and my hat is lined with fleece. I'm fine, I'm fine."

Chen Xinyue, her face pale, went over to help him up. "My God! This is no small matter. Quickly go inside and rest for a while, observe him, and if it gets worse, you'll have to go to the hospital."

The crowd ushered Tang Jing into the house and let her rest on a chair.

Lin Ying was busy serving tea and water, and occasionally kicked her two troublesome sons a few times to vent her frustration.

"Get out of here, get out of the way, you're just annoying to look at."

The men were all in another room talking and making tea, while this room was full of women.

Xu Jian and Xu Kang were indeed embarrassed to keep her there, so they quickly nodded and admitted their mistake, saying, "Okay, cousin, please keep an eye on her. If this comrade is really feeling unwell, I'll take her to the hospital immediately, and I'll cover all the medical expenses!"

Xu Jian patted his chest and said.

Chen Xinyue glared at him. "Cousin, if Jingjing really goes to the hospital, I'll have to ask you for compensation for emotional distress, nutritional expenses, and lost wages. You'd better prepare to bleed a lot!"

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely take full responsibility!" Xu Jian apologized like a grandson, saying many nice things before Lin Ying finally chased him away.

With the annoying man gone, Lin Ying spoke much more gently, "Miss, why don't you go lie down for a while?"

Tang Jing shook her head.

Worried that she might feel uncomfortable, Chen Xinyue quickly said, "Auntie, you and my mom go and rest. I'll take care of Jingjing."

Zhou Miaoqing and Xu Jiahui quickly nodded in agreement.

Lin Ying knew that the young girls needed space to talk, so she agreed.

After they left, Chen Xinyue immediately gave Xu Jian and Xu Kang a good scolding, saying, "My two cousins ​​have never been to the North before. Although they've been doing business all these years, they've never really had the chance to let loose like this. Once they got the chance, they went crazy and scared you!"

Tang Jing waved her hand, "It's nothing, I feel like I've almost recovered."

Chen Xinyue was relieved and asked, "Are you still in the provincial capital?"

Tang Jing nodded, "I've bought houses there, so I definitely won't leave. I was lucky last year and passed the civil service exam. Now I'm working in the provincial capital."

Zhou Miaoqing continued, "Jingjing's life is inspiring, but I'm not ambitious at all. I work at my parents' workplace! I guess I'll have to live my whole life according to their wishes."

Xu Jiahui rolled her eyes. "Come on! Don't be ungrateful! You're the only female friend I know who gets this kind of treatment! Which family doesn't favor sons over daughters and practically leech off their daughters to support their sons? In my eyes, your parents are practically gods and bodhisattvas!"

Zhou Miaoqing knew about Xu Jiahui's situation and immediately shut her mouth.

Chen Xinyue's gaze fell on Xu Jiahui, "What about you? Staying in Anshi?"

Xu Jiahui nodded. "It's a government job, and I probably won't be moving here for the rest of my life. My family keeps urging me to get married, but what's the use? Their social circles are all in their hometown. I'm in the city, so I can't help them at all. I can only worry about it."

Thinking about her conversations with her parents every year, Xu Jiahui finds it funny.

As the four were chatting, Lin Ying came over again, staring intently at Tang Jing. "Girl, the more I think about it, the more uneasy I feel. I need to take you to the hospital for a check-up to put my mind at ease. Let's go! We'll go now."

Lin Qin chimed in, "That's right, a head injury is no small matter. Just listen to us, you won't go wrong!"

Tang Jing wanted to refuse, but Zhou Miaoqing and Xu Jiahui were taken aback and joined in the persuasion. In the end, Xu Jian and Xu Kang took Tang Jing to the hospital for a brain examination. Zhou Miaoqing and Xu Jiahui accompanied her.

Chen Xinyue was originally going to go too, but was stopped by her elders.

The reason given was that it's not appropriate for newlyweds to go to the hospital.

I can only give up.

Fortunately, after all that trouble, the test results showed nothing seriously wrong.

The Xu brothers both breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Jian was also a responsible person. He exchanged contact information with Tang Jing and told her to contact him if she had any problems, and that he would take responsibility.

That evening, Tang Jing and the other two took a plane and left.

The next day, Chen Wenjun also left the capital with his whole family.

Chen Xinyue and Xiao Jinlin embarked on their honeymoon, which was supposed to last two months, but they returned home after just over a month.

Tang Ming arrived at work early in the morning and, as usual, went to the CEO's office to leave a document. To his astonishment, he saw Xiao Jinlin alive and well, and was utterly terrified. "Holy crap! What the hell?!"

Xiao Jinlin glared at him coldly, "What did you say?"

Tang Ming looked dazed. "Boss, it really is you! Didn't we agree on a two-month honeymoon? Why did it end early?"

Xiao Jinlin smiled enigmatically and did not answer.

This left Tang Ming feeling incredibly anxious and frustrated.

He waited until work hours but Chen Xinyue still hadn't arrived, so he couldn't hold back any longer and went to find Xiao Jinlin, "Boss, isn't the boss's wife coming?"

Xiao Jinlin nodded noncommittally.

Tang Ming's reaction was even stronger now, "No, no! Why is that? Does the landlady want to be a stay-at-home mom?"

Xiao Jinlin continued to nod.

Tang Ming looked suspicious. "Something's not right. The proprietress doesn't seem like that kind of person. What's going on?"

Unable to bear it any longer, Tang Ming secretly sent a text message to Chen Xinyue to inquire.

Chen Xinyue called him directly, "Assistant Tang, I'm pregnant. I probably won't be coming to the company for a while. Let's talk after the first trimester. Shh, remember to keep it a secret!"

Tang Ming was so excited that he bit his hand and nodded frantically. He hung up the phone and immediately went to tell Xiao Jinlin the good news, promising to keep it a secret.

Chen Xinyue, who had just hung up the phone, was still unable to fully accept the fact that she was pregnant.

They were still in Hainan yesterday morning, planning their next tourist destination, but because she felt nauseous and uncomfortable during breakfast, Xiao Jinlin became anxious and paranoid, insisting on taking her to the hospital.

To put his mind at ease, she went to get checked, and lo and behold, she was found to be pregnant.

Xiao Jinlin immediately bought her a plane ticket and sent her back.

She had just woken up and was feeling dizzy. Besides her husband and herself, only Tang Ming knew about her pregnancy.

What should we do next? Who should we notify? Or should we just stay home and rest during our pregnancy?
Before Chen Xinyue could figure things out, Xiao Jinlin returned.

"So soon? Didn't you go to work?"

He left while she was sleeping, leaving her only a text message.
