Chapter 647: Chapter 0647 Departure to the Capital 3_1

Just as she returned to the entrance of the rudimentary military hospital, Guo Xiuying was grabbed by Lu Zhaodi.

"Dr. Guo," Lu Zhaodi’s face lit up with a flush of excitement, her tone rapid and exuberant, "You need to feel my pulse, you need to quickly feel my pulse, see if I’m pregnant! I haven’t had my period for two and a half months." Noticing soldiers in the distance heading towards the hospital, she deliberately lowered her voice for the last part of her sentence.

"Alright alright, don’t panic, let me check your pulse." Guo Xiuying understood Lu Zhaodi’s eagerness for a child. She took Lu Zhaodi’s wrist, supporting it with one hand while checking the pulse with the other.

After checking both wrists, Guo Xiuying frowned, repeated the process, but still didn’t detect any tachycardia.

Meeting Lu Zhaodi’s hopeful gaze, Guo Xiuying couldn’t help but utter a sigh, "It’s likely your period is irregular due to a sudden change in climate and environment, and not because you’re pregnant."

Meanwhile, Lu Zhaodi appeared to be severely deficient in her qi and blood flow, probably because she wasn’t taken good care of after childbirth.

In such conditions, it may be difficult for her to get pregnant.

"Impossible!" Lu Zhaodi screamed, her skinny hands clutching onto Guo Xiuying’s shoulder, "Dr. Guo, you’re lying to me, aren’t you? Isn’t a delayed period a sign of pregnancy? I have been waiting for two and a half months, you have to check again. Maybe I’m pregnant right now!"

Guo Xiuying consoled her: "You are still young, why are you in such a rush? The lack of children in the past was due to your prolonged separation from Director Jin. How can you have a baby on your own? Now that you are with the army and living with Director Jin, you will become pregnant soon. Don’t panic. The more anxious you are, the more unhelpful it is to the situation. I’ll get you some Tibetan Saffron for you to restore your health."

"Really not pregnant?"

Seeing Guo Xiuying nod, Lu Zhaodi walked away in a daze.

Looking at Lu Zhaodi’s retreating figure - Guo Xiuying lightly shook her head, knowing the latter had been desperately trying to bear a son.

"I really don’t understand, aren’t boys and girls the same? Ajiang and I hope this baby is a daughter." Feng Qingxue, cheeks slightly rounded, beamed as she repeated Xiuying’s words. She couldn’t help but caress her stomach, which was now over five months along. "Clarifying this, Xibao chanted ’sister’ every day to Lu Jiang’s belly."

Guo Xiuying chuckled, "I’ve listened to your baby’s heartbeat, and it is very gentle. based on my experience, Lu Jiang and Xibao are likely to get their wish."

Feng Qingxue was taken aback, "Sister-in-law, can you really distinguish that?" Is this more accurate than a future ultrasound?

Wang Sanbao, who was tidying up his belongings nearby, added, "What’s so hard about that? I can tell a bit too. Listening to it often, and then comparing it with the child’s gender after birth, you can generally tell. A girl’s heartbeat is gentler. However, it’s all based on experience and isn’t always accurate."

"If it really is a girl, Ajiang will certainly be very happy". As human beings, we tend to be greedy, those with sons want daughters and those with daughters want sons, always hoping for the best of both worlds.

"You better not say this in front of Lu Zhaodi, or she will get angry. She’s already very envious of people who have sons," advised Guo Xiuying. "You and Ajiang have collected a good amount of Tibetan herbs, haven’t you? Get me some Tibetan Saffron tomorrow. I’ll make tea for Lu Zhaodi."

"Sure, but before you give it to her, remember to remind her that she can’t have sexual intercourse while drinking the Saffron."
