The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 296 - 29: Confirmation

Wang Miaomiao was dumbfounded. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

She unconsciously tightened her grip on the chopsticks due to nervousness.

Jiang Yan felt a bit regretful. He had been too careless. If it weren’t for Mr. Jiang’s unintentional remarks, he wouldn’t have realized the recent changes in his young wife.

She was sleepy, had a big appetite, and most importantly, they’d been sleeping together every day, but he didn’t notice that her period was late.

He put down his chopsticks, stood up, and said, "I’ll go make a call to ask for leave..."

"Why ask for leave..." Wang Miaomiao’s heart was pounding, and she looked at him with an innocent expression, seemingly still not in the loop.

Jiang Yan’s gaze deepened, and he looked at her belly and said, "I’m taking you to the hospital for a check-up..."

Wang Miaomiao felt a tremor in her heart and reached her hand to cover her belly, feeling a mix of emotions.

This child wasn’t part of her plan, but now that he or she was here, after the initial shock, she gradually began to feel a lot of anticipation, not knowing whether it was a baby boy or girl. With already having two adorable twins at home, if another sweet little one came along... Wang Miaomiao smiled with expectation and happiness.

Mr. Jiang and Jiang Zhongyi also understood the meaning behind their conversation and looked at Wang Miaomiao with excitement. Miao Miao was truly a great contributor to the family, having already given the Jiang Family two big grandsons, and now there was another one? This was wonderful...

"Is there going to be a new addition to the family? ... Hohoho..." Mr. Jiang laughed so much that his eyes were squinting.

"It’s not confirmed yet, Grandpa." Jiang Yan reminded helplessly, to prevent premature celebration.

Jiang Yan was quite conflicted. The last time during his wife’s childbirth was unforgettable for him, witnessing all the pain she endured from pregnancy to delivery. Despite his happiness with their two little boys, he felt even more sympathetic towards his wife.

Moreover, with the arrival of the two little ones, his status significantly dropped, and most of his wife’s attention was drawn to them.

Now that the twins had grown a bit, he was just thinking about how to separate them a bit so his wife’s affection could be back on him, and just when there was some progress, she was pregnant again?

Pregnancy, postpartum recovery, breastfeeding... uh, another round of this? Sigh, how did they not take precautions? Which time overlooked it? Hopefully, he’s overthinking...

"Alright... I’ll stop talking, you two hurry to the hospital. I’m waiting for your good news... Hehe..." Mr. Jiang didn’t care about his worries at all. He always knew that his granddaughter-in-law was blessed.

With a mixture of nervousness, the two went to the hospital, went through a series of blood tests and urine tests, and got the result: two and a half months pregnant.

Uh... Calculating the days, it must have been conceived in early October. Recalling that man coming back from a wedding banquet intoxicated, creating a ruckus in broad daylight in the bathroom, he was like a wild beast that day... She was so dizzied by his antics that there must have been a slip-up in protection...

Wang Miaomiao ground her teeth, glaring at him viciously.

Jiang Yan apparently calculated the days too, knowing that those days were the craziest, he scratched his nose, already planning...

It’s said that women forget the pain once they have healed scars; remembering swearing never to give birth again after the pain of labor. But now upon hearing the news, the great maternal love sparked instantly...

"Oh, I wonder if it’s a baby boy or girl this time?" Wang Miaomiao placed a hand over her belly, eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Prompted by Wang Miaomiao’s question, Jiang Yan couldn’t help but imagine. First came a Xiao Hanhan, then turned into Xiao Huihui, and then it was a doll-like baby girl. He blurted out without much thought, "It’s a girl..."

"Hmm? How do you know it’s a girl?" Wang Miaomiao was curious as she saw his unhesitant and confident demeanor.

"I have a feeling." The image of a little girl lingered in Jiang Yan’s mind, a gentle smile on his lips as the vision of a shy, petite daughter resembling his young wife became clearer.

Wang Miaomiao looked at him in amazement and said, "Is it the legendary sixth sense? People say women’s sixth sense is accurate. Do men have it too? Tell me, what’s a man’s sixth sense like?"

Jiang Yan, slightly exasperated, thought to himself, "What nonsense," and said, "Alright, let’s head back. Grandpa and dad at home must be worried."

"Oh..." Wang Miaomiao reluctantly dropped the subject as he dodged her questions and changed the topic.

The two didn’t dawdle and quickly returned home.

"How’s it going? How’s it going?"

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Mr. Jiang leaning on a walking stick standing by the entrance with anticipation.

"Grandpa, why are you standing here? The ground is still slippery." Although the snow had been shoveled to the side, the ground hadn’t dried yet. It was worrying to see the old man moving around.

Jiang Yan hurried his steps, wanting to help out.

Seeing Jiang Yan quicken his pace, Wang Miaomiao also accelerated her steps, breaking into a small run.

This startled Mr. Jiang, "I’m fine, Miao Miao, be careful, Ah Yan, quickly support your wife, are you blind?" Mr. Jiang gazed at Wang Miaomiao’s belly, worried she might trip as she jogged over.

Jiang Yan was speechless at the old man’s reproach. Two individuals who shouldn’t be let alone.

He paused and held the already running Wang Miaomiao, frowning, "Why the running? Forgot about your belly? What if you tripped?"

Feeling guilty, Wang Miaomiao stuck out her tongue, clearly having forgotten. She hadn’t yet fully adopted the notion of becoming a mother again.

Jiang Yan’s words caught Mr. Jiang’s sharp ears, making him laugh with joy, "Haha, is there? Am I having another great-grandchild?"

"Really? Really expecting?" Jiang Zhongyi brought over a chair, originally for Mr. Jiang to sit; he insisted on waiting outside for Jiang Yan and Wang Miaomiao, so Jiang Zhongyi guided him out and, not wanting him to stand too long, went to fetch a chair.

At this point, catching the good news, he was all smiles too, planning to return the chair once used.

Once back in the living room, Jiang Yan, Wang Miaomiao, Mr. Jiang, Jiang Zhongyi, Aunt Li, along with Sister-in-law Yang and Sister-in-law Song with the twins, all gathered, with Jiang Yan formally announcing the news, "Miao Miao is pregnant, two and a half months."

Although everyone already knew the news, Jiang Yan felt a formal announcement was a sign of weight.

"Good, good," Mr. Jiang excitedly said, "Miao Miao, you’re our family’s heroine. Ah Yan, make sure to take care of her. Xiao Li, take charge of Miao Miao’s diet with Xiao Zhang; be meticulous..."

Aunt Li was equally happy for the Jiang Family, glad the lady of the house was expecting, providing a chance for her and Lao Zhao to do their best.

"Rest assured, Old Master, leave it to us, we’ll be devoted and take good care of Miao Miao."
