Especially those who had already given birth to several daughters. If they were to find out that they were pregnant with daughters, they would definitely choose to abort the child. She might play a hand in ending that baby’s life.
Furthermore, Jiang Yao did not quite understand them. Those women had said bad things about her, and it had only been a few days. How could they have such thick skin to ask her for help?
Did they think that she was stupid?
“Wow, it’s so lively here.”
Mrs. Lin’s voice suddenly came from outside the door. She looked at the pregnant woman inside the house and guessed why they were there.
That morning, Major He had seemed very happy. It did not take long for everyone to find out that Major He’s wife was pregnant with twins, which made Major He very happy. Everyone found out that it was Major He’s neighbor, Sergeant Lu’s wife, who had revealed that good news.
Mrs. Lin did not need to think too much to know that those women were there to ask Jiang Yao to help them see if they were carrying a boy or a girl.
Therefore, Mrs. Lin felt that she had arrived at the right time. At that moment, Jiang Yao was probably furious at those talkative women; she might not give them any face at all.
Jiang Yao might have pretended to be unhappy with Lu Xingzhi in the past, but she no longer needed to act as Lu Xingzhi had confirmed that he would be transferred to Province A. She might even call for him.
Mrs. Lin walked to the front and looked at those people. Then, she said, “Why are you all in Sergeant Lu’s house so early in the morning? I thought I came to the wrong house. One might think that I have entered a woman’s dorm.”
Then, Mrs. Lin chuckled. She said, “Even though Mrs. Lu is a medical student, you can’t come to her house like this. She’s here to visit her husband, not to work. If you feel any discomfort, then look for a military doctor. You’re not allowed to bother Mrs. Lu. If she gets tired, Sergeant Lu might settle the score with you.”
“What are you saying, Mrs. Lin? We only wanted Mrs. Lu’s help to take a look at our bellies…”
“I can’t help you with that.”
Jiang Yao interrupted the other woman and said, “The hospital won’t even let you look at your baby’s gender, so I can’t help you with that. This is not up for discussion. I’m busy, so please take your leave.”
“If you tell Major He’s wife, then why can’t you help us?”
Another dissatisfied voice echoed. “Major He’s mother even reported the two of you. So, you won’t hold a grudge against us, right?”
“This is my skill, and it is my business who I help. Mrs. Lin is right. I am here to visit my husband, not to work. If you want to know, then go to the hospital.” Jiang Yao shrugged. “I’m not as easy as one thinks I am even though I am young. I have a temper, and my behavior is reflected upon that. That’s why I’m like this.”
When they heard Jiang Yao’s words, they knew that they had gone there for nothing. Those anxious to learn about their baby’s gender were furious. If the hospital could tell them, would they need to wait until then?
Those who did not care about their child’s gender but wanted to know in advance were also a little mad. They felt that Jiang Yao had a bad temper and her words were unkind.
