Chapter 1386: Triplets

Because they had found an acquaintance, they could go directly to get the form: "Sister-in-law, this is my wife, Xiao Chuxue. Sorry for the trouble today."

Chuxue smiled and called out, "Hello, Sister Wang. Thank you for your trouble."

Sister Wang's face was full of smiles: "If you call it trouble, that's too distant. My husband heard that my sister-in-law is carrying multiples; he wanted to come for an ultrasound and kept urging me to take good care of you."

Saying this, she prepared to accompany them over.

Fu Yan Cheng quickly spoke up: "Sister-in-law, I'll take her over myself."

Sister Wang waved her hand and said, "It's fine. I've already made arrangements. I'll accompany you two over there."

Since she had spoken so, they no longer declined; after all, with an acquaintance leading the way, things would surely go more smoothly.

Indeed, having connections in high places makes things easier. With Sister Wang leading them, the couple quickly entered the ultrasound room.

Because Sister Wang was with them, Fu Yan Cheng was also allowed to accompany her.

At first, Chuxue was indeed not nervous, but when she lay down and heard the doctor say, "Listen to how strong this fetal heartbeat is. Look, there's one. Here, do you see it?"

Just then, another physician nearby exclaimed, "It's actually triplets!"

When Chuxue heard "triplets," her heart suddenly pounded wildly. Triplets? She was actually carrying three at once?

Fu Yan Cheng also grew excited, but he couldn't understand the display on the instrument: "How can you tell there are three?"

The doctor in charge of the examination pointed it out for him, his voice also carrying excitement: "This is the first time I've seen triplets. Congratulations indeed."

Sister Wang spoke up at the right moment: "Can you tell if they are boys or girls?"

That physician shook his head and said, "To see the gender, it needs to be around five months; right now, they are still too small."

In this era, the resolution of ultrasound machines was low, and accuracy depended on the equipment, the doctor's experience, and the fetus's position. The couple only wanted to confirm how many fetuses there were; they had no requirements regarding gender, as long as the babies were healthy.

Actually, opening the blind box during delivery was even more anticipated.

After leaving the examination room, they followed Sister Wang back to the office of her department. After exchanging pleasantries, Chuxue signaled Fu Yan Cheng to hand over the items they had brought.

Fu Yan Cheng took a cup of honey from his shoulder bag: "Sister-in-law, take this back and mix it with water for the children to drink."

After a long back-and-forth of refusal, Sister Wang, seeing she couldn't push it away, could only smile and say, "Then I'll thank those rascals on their behalf. This time is fine, but next time you come, please don't bring anything again, or I'll really get angry with you."

Fu Yan Cheng naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

Afterwards, he handed over the examination fees: "This cannot be refused. You've done us a favor; we can't possibly expect you to cover the costs. If that were the case, how would we ever have the face to come back and ask Sister-in-law for help next time?"

Sister Wang accepted it with a smile: "Very well, I'll take it. If you have any matters in the future, just come over; I'll surely arrange everything properly for you."

After chatting a few more sentences and seeing someone enter the office, the couple hurriedly took their leave.

After leaving the hospital, the two, still excited, immediately found a public phone booth to share this good news.

Now, whether the Xiao family or the Fu family, both exploded. Triplets, really?

After finishing their calls, the two calmed down only after a long while.

After arriving at the Xinhua Bookstore, they explained the situation to someone and were led upstairs: "Director Qiao, someone has come to deliver the translation manuscript."

A voice came from the office: "Come in."

The couple was invited inside.
