Ji Ling was nearly five months pregnant, and she couldn't see her belly when she was more than three months old. After four months, she felt her belly was blown up, and Li Ying visibly grew bigger.

At first she was not used to it, but now that she has a big belly, she can walk like flying.

Even in the middle of the night near the entrance of the hospital, there were taxis on the road. Ji Ling stopped one and went directly to the compound where Xu's family lived.

The doorman was already asleep, and was woken up by someone tapping on the window. He got up to confirm his identity, and it took him a while to recognize it was Ji Ling.

"Ouch, haven't you seen me for almost a year? Are you married?"

Ji Ling greeted him politely, and the guard saw another person with a big belly coming in so late, so he hurried out to open the door.

"It's cold, you should wear thicker clothes." The guard said with concern, watched Ji Ling go in, and then locked the door again.

When Ji Ling arrived at Xu's house on the first floor, she was afraid of disturbing the neighbors, so she knocked on the door very quietly.

So when Xu's father heard the voice and opened the door, Ji Ling stood outside the door for more than ten minutes. She didn't dare to keep knocking on the door, so she could only knock a few times to listen to the movement inside, and then knock again if there was no movement.

"Xiaoling?" Xu's father recognized the person, and while turning on the light in the living room, he moved away and called for someone to come in, "Come in quickly."

He just woke up and glanced at the clock in the living room. It was past two o'clock in the morning, and it was winter, and his granddaughter came back from the capital with a big belly, and Xu's father was also refreshed.

Ji Ling called her grandpa, and took her slippers into the room. When she sat down on the sofa, Xu's father closed the door and went to call Xu's mother.

Xu's mother's doubtful voice came faintly from the living room, "You said Xiaoling is back?"

"Yeah, the child is alone, come out first." Xu's father said, and went back to the living room, "Xiao Ling, why are you alone? You just came back?"

Ji Ling realized something was wrong since she came in, "Grandpa, aren't my parents here?"

"Your parents? You came from the county?" Father Xu was even more surprised when he heard that, "Your parents told you that they came to me?"

Mother Xu also came out of the bedroom wearing a cotton coat at this time, "Xiaoling, what's the matter?"

The old man is like this. When he sees a child coming over at night, his first thought is that something happened.

Seeing the appearance of the two old people, Ji Ling had a guess in her heart, "Grandpa, grandma, don't you know about my elder brother's hospitalization?"

"Your elder brother is in the hospital?" Mother Xu exclaimed as soon as she sat down, "What's going on? We haven't heard of it? Oh, are your parents afraid that we will get angry and hide it from us?"

Ji Ling said, "It should be like this."

Then she explained that she received a call a few days ago and knew that her eldest brother was in critical condition and rushed back, ".I just came out of the hospital, and my elder brother's condition has stabilized. There is nothing wrong. My parents are not in the hospital. I thought I was at your house. Come over and have a look. Don't get angry, my elder brother is fine."

"Business is big, and people will always be jealous." Xu's mother sighed, "Your elder brother can be regarded as saving his life. When your parents come over in the next year, I think it's fine. Why did this happen in just a few days?" There are too many things, I'm afraid your eldest brother will have an accident at that time, your mother asked in private to get some money from me, your uncle had an accident a few years ago, and let him use the money."

Speaking of this, Xu's mother hurriedly said, "Your elder brother spent a lot of money this time, and I don't know if your parents borrowed it, and they don't tell the truth, or I will go out and pour it out for them even if I have no money. .”

"Don't worry about this. When I arrived at the hospital, the nurse came to pay the fee. I brought the money here and handed it in." Ji Ling tried her best to reassure the two old people, "I don't know that you don't know about this , If I knew earlier, I would have been waiting in the hospital."

"You child, what kind of stupid things are you talking about? Your parents shouldn't hide this matter. When I see them, I have to talk about them." Xu's mother said, "We are old, but we haven't reached the stage yet. An age where nothing can happen."

"Let Xiaoling rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow morning when I go to the hospital. I don't know where the couple lives now." Father Xu didn't say anything. Now that he knows what's going on, he's relieved, "You have When you’re pregnant, you have to put yourself first.”

"I see." Ji Ling was also a little tired at this time, and she found that her grandfather and the others still had some things they didn't know, so she didn't dare to say more.

I was afraid that I would miss it again.

"Do you live in the guest room, or in the room that Xiao Ke lived in?" Mother Xu asked.

Ji Ling smiled and said, "I'll stay in the guest room."

She doesn't want to compete with Ji Ke.

Xu's mother laughed, "The bedding in the guest room was also newly changed during the Chinese New Year, and no one has ever used it."

She also knew that the two sisters were not very close, so she asked.

Coupled with the last marriage and the things her granddaughter did, Xu's mother has always felt guilty, and now she is happy to see her granddaughter come to the door.

Closing the door of the bedroom, Ji Ling lay down with her clothes on. Just now, grandma said that there will be only the two of them for New Year's greetings, and she hasn't asked her about coming back to celebrate the New Year. Obviously she didn't know that she was back, so she said that what happened at home was hidden. with them.

Ji Ling didn't care about this, even if grandpa and the others knew about it, they couldn't change anything.

It's just that she doesn't understand why her elder brother has no money for hospitalization, and her parents are still unwilling to tell the truth to her grandfather.

There were a lot of things on her mind, and after another three days of driving, Ji Ling's tooth also hurt. She knew it was the fire tooth, and was worried that Ji Jianhua would get angry.

Now I see that people are fine, but the fire has already risen, and it will not go away for a while. I am pregnant and cannot take painkillers, so I can only hold on.

As a result, when I woke up the next morning, half of my face was swollen.

Xu's father came back from the porridge and buns he bought outside, and the two of them were still thinking about not disturbing Ji Ling, but found that they were also up.

"Why didn't you sleep a little longer?" Mother Xu asked, and then realized something was wrong, "Why is your face swollen?"

"A bit of toothache." Ji Ling was afraid that they would worry, so she said against her will, "It doesn't hurt now, it's fine."

"You can't take medicine. I'll get some peppercorns for you to bite on later. That'll work."

"Thank you grandma."

"You child, why don't you thank me, you always make yourself so polite, wash your face and eat, I'll find you peppercorns." Mother Xu turned and went to the kitchen, and Ji Ling also went to wash her face.

When she came back, Xu's mother also came back, and there was a handful of peppercorns on the table, "Eat first, then bite after eating, just bite all the way, and then vomited when I arrived at the hospital."

Ji Ling said she got it, the three of them ate breakfast and talked a lot during the meal, Xu's mother also asked her about the New Year at her mother-in-law's house.

"Are you going to visit Wei Zhu to celebrate the New Year? I heard from your elder brother that you went to the Southwest. When did you come back? It looks like you have lost a lot of weight."

Ji Ling was afraid of something, so she said vaguely about the weather over there, but she didn't mention her coming back for the New Year, "It's very hot, I can't eat, and the food over there doesn't suit our taste, so I just lost weight." A little bit, but my mother-in-law made it up for me."
