Chapter 216 Pregnancy

Afterwards, I performed alone. First, I ate the cold roasted sweet potatoes in a few bites, and then waited for Mama Jiang to heat up the food and brought it to me. I ate another big meal.

Seeing me like this, Mama Jiang whispered a few words to Mama Qu, and then the two of them called Jiang Zhi over and muttered for a while.Seeing that Jiang Zhi's face changed from disbelief to ecstasy, and then he wanted to explode, but Jiang Ma held him tightly to prevent him from exploding. He took several deep breaths before stabilizing his emotions, and came back to sit beside me. He watched me eat and drink without blinking.

I looked at Jiang Zhi, and I was a little embarrassed by the straight look in his eyes, and I just remembered to look up at other people at this moment, and saw that the people in the living room were all standing or sitting and staring at me. Feeling ashamed, he asked, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

"We're not hungry, you just have to eat yourself, eat more." Jiang Zhi said to me with a smile, and even picked up a piece of ribs for me, "If you want to eat anything, just say, I'll make it for you .”

I looked a little timid.Looking at this posture, why do I feel a little familiar!It seems that such situations and such words have been seen on TV before, and they are all words for people who are dying.Could it be that I’m going to die? It’s not right. My body knows it. I’m still very young and very energetic.

I was thinking about my thoughts, and my hands and mouth didn't waste a bit. After sweeping wildly, I finally stood up, patting my stomach in satisfaction.Seeing my movements, Jiang Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to support me, and took my stomach patting hand into his.

"Daughter-in-law, be careful." Jiang Zhi said while supporting me carefully.

Seeing Jiang Zhi like this, I sat back on the sofa, looked at Jiang Zhi and said, "Tell me, what's going on, am I suffering from something?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you are healthy." Jiang Zhi was not happy to hear me say that he was sick, so he frowned and stopped me.

"I also think I am very healthy, but you are so careful that I am a little confused." I know that I have been a little abnormal recently, but I don't have any terminal illness.

"Daughter-in-law, don't worry, you are healthy. But, think about it, do you always want to sleep recently?" Jiang Zhi looked like a big bad wolf seducing the little white rabbit at this time.

I listened and shook my head, my sleep was still the same as before.

"Does that mean you're often irritable?"

Well, I have this symptom, I nodded.

"Sometimes dizzy?"

I nodded again.

"Always hungry, can I eat?"

I was about to shake my head, but looking at the dishes that hadn't been confiscated in front of me, I nodded with difficulty.

"Daughter-in-law, think about it, under what circumstances would this happen?" Jiang Zhi tempted.

Without even thinking about it, I said, "Menopause."

The group of people behind them fell.

Qu's mother said impatiently: "She's not that careful, just ask directly. Tell Mom how long it's been since your menstruation."

I listened to my mother's words, and my face suddenly turned red.What's the matter with my mother, there are so many people in the living room, and my father-in-law and Li Cheng are also there, so why do you ask such a private matter.

"Don't be embarrassed, you're not an outsider, so you can say whatever you want." Mother Qu saw her girl's shyness.

Only then did I seriously think about it. It seemed that mine hadn't come for a long time. I don't remember how long it was, but it definitely didn't come this month.

I said with some uncertainty: "It's been more than 20 days since this month, and I don't remember last month. Mom, you won't say that I'm pregnant, that's impossible."

"Why is it impossible?" Jiang Zhi asked me with fire in his eyes, and that look blamed me for underestimating his ability.

"Then what, it has nothing to do with your ability. I just think that we haven't had a second child for such a long time. How could it be so coincidental that we suddenly have it at this time." Since we started having rings and space , our husband and wife just want to have another child, and Jiang Zhi also wants a daughter. It has been several years, we have not taken any contraceptive measures, and we have no children. How come I can eat a little bit, and everyone suspects that I am pregnant Well, how can there be such a coincidence.

Everyone still looked skeptical, Jiang Zhi thought for a while and said, "I have test strips here, you will know if you are pregnant or not."

After Jiang Zhi finished speaking, he took out a box of pregnancy test strips from the ring.I was surprised to see the test strip that Jiang Zhi stuffed into his hand, what kind of things does this person have in the ring, even this.

"Okay, close your mouth and go try it out quickly. Oh, let me help you. What if there is water on the toilet floor and it's slippery?" Jiang Zhi raised his hand and closed my mouth that was opened wide by surprise. After that, I have to help me to go to the toilet.

I was so dizzy in everyone's expectant eyes, Jiang Zhi supported me and went to the toilet. If I hadn't recovered in time and kicked Jiang Zhi out, I guess Jiang Zhi would have to help me take off my pants .

I was sitting on the toilet, staring at the two red bars in a daze. This villain, who had been looking forward to it for so long but never came, suddenly came when I didn't give in. Isn't this a surprise attack?

While I was thinking blindly in the toilet, Jiang Zhi waited anxiously outside.

"Daughter-in-law, is it okay? Open the door and I'll look for you." Jiang Zhi knocked on the toilet door anxiously.

I came back to my senses and rolled my eyes towards the toilet door, just to see how many red lines there are, I still can’t figure out why.

I stood up slowly, put on my pants and opened the toilet door, Jiang Zhi was anxious to grab the test strip in my hand.

"Oh, what are you doing, don't touch me, the consequences are not something you can bear." I instantly felt like I was pregnant, and I pushed forward my flat belly.

Jiang Zhi quickly retracted the outstretched hand.Just looking at my shaking hand, I looked at the red bars on it. In fact, he had already identified it a long time ago, but he still needs to be sure before he can feel at ease.

"Daughter-in-law, do you really have one? Haha, we have a girl. I have been looking forward to it for several years, but let me wait." Jiang Zhi was so happy that he was a little incoherent.The baby stuff he keeps in his ring will finally see the light of day.

I saw Jiang Zhi's stupid appearance, and my heart, which was already very happy, became a lot happier in an instant. Although I was nearly 40 years old and had a baby, people know that I should say that I am old, but I can give birth to a child for the one I love. Parenting, I also admit being laughed at.

When Jiang Zhi helped me to the living room, he announced the matter to everyone. Hanhan heard it from outside the door, and ran all over the living room happily, shouting: "I have a sister too, I have a sister too!"

My final worry can be considered to be put down, the arrival of the baby can only be welcomed by the whole family, if there are different opinions, we as parents have to consider it, we can't ignore the child's ideas.Now that Han Han also wants a younger sister, there is no problem.

Afterwards, I became an elderly pregnant woman with peace of mind. Every day, I only ate and slept, and even played with my temper.

But it was quite boring to stay there every day, and then I remembered a big event that was going to happen this year, and it was also the last thing I foresaw the end of the world—the plague of locusts.

When I was free, I found some relevant information in space for research. Locusts are insects that like warm and dry conditions. The arid environment is conducive to the reproduction, growth and survival of locusts.Because locusts lay their eggs in tidal wasteland with no plants or few plants, in dry years, the water surface of rivers and lakes shrinks, and the low-lying areas provide locusts with more places suitable for laying eggs.In addition, plants grown in arid environments have low water content, which locusts feed on and grow faster. Once the number reaches a certain level, they may swarm into disasters.

I also searched for some ways to prevent locust plagues. The first one is to spray pesticides. This method cannot be used. Where can I find pesticides in this situation? Besides, the locusts are dead after using pesticides, and people are probably choked by the medicine. The method of killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred is still unnecessary.

These days, when I have nothing to do, I am willing to think about preventing locust plagues by myself.Judging from the data, the locust plague must not be underestimated. In ancient times, a poet described the scene of the locust plague in "Flying Locusts": "The locusts cover the sky and the sun is colorless, and the wild old fields are weeping with blood."

This shows that the locusts in ancient times were very harmful. Wherever they passed, the crops were completely destroyed, and the farmers looked at the sky and the earth and wept, and their hearts were bleeding.At that time, the locusts were so harmful. Now, after hundreds of years of evolution, what kind of pests are those locusts?If we don't pay enough attention, it's time for our hearts to bleed in the end.

The second method is to raise more natural enemies of locusts.According to statistics, there are many kinds of natural enemies of locusts in my country, including birds, amphibians, reptiles, etc., and they play an important role in controlling the number of locusts.

According to the book, in some remote areas, ducks and chickens are used to eradicate locusts, and the effect is quite remarkable. In one area, an experiment was conducted to introduce a large number of ducks into the farmland to prey on rice locusts. As a result, only [-] ducks were needed to kill The locusts in the [-] mu of land were eaten clean.

I think of the chickens, ducks and geese that are still raised at home. They should be able to contribute to the locust plague. If not, I can also expand the breeding efforts in the space and return to normal after the locust plague passes.

Moreover, I have read in a post-apocalyptic novel that locusts are edible. When people are in famine, they will catch some locusts to satisfy their hunger. It is said that locusts are high in protein, rich in nutrition, soft, tender and delicious. shrimp.There are also many ways to eat it, and it can be fried, fried or boiled.We can take advantage of this opportunity to catch some locusts and save them for later eating.
