Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 553: Classic "Witness for the Prosecution", the Queen is pregnant! (Monthly ticket plus more)

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Fang Yan said to Meng Jimin.

Meng Jimin was not polite and immediately said with a smile:

"Haha, those who are capable should do more work. Who says I have talent in this area?"

The reason why Meng Jimin agreed so readily was because this was the first time Fang Yan asked him to do something.

I will have to curry favor with him in the future. If I refuse now with all kinds of excuses, I can’t guarantee what Fangyan will think.

When there are benefits, you follow others to take advantage, but when there are no benefits, you make excuses and refuse to do so?
That person is not a fool.

Although the two knew each other for a long time and had Le Miao and Zhu Lao as a bond, and were close friends, Meng Jimin himself now knew how many benefits he had gained from following Fang Yan. Even his life was saved by Fang Yan last year.

On the contrary, I have not brought any benefits to the dialect.

Now people have assigned me a task to learn the art of incantation. Can I postpone it?

Besides, he was indeed more interested in the art of incantation.

In particular, the dialect told him that the examples and medical records he had just cited were all from the Qing Dynasty.

So Meng Jimin wanted to try it out even more. What was the Zhuyou technique like before the Qing Dynasty?

……

After Fangyan arranged the work for Lao Meng, his ward rounds were considered complete.

Then he took his little apprentice Zhao Zhengyi out of the Union Hospital and headed home.

Just as the two arrived at the door of the house, they saw the eldest sister's brother-in-law, who was wearing a military coat, saying goodbye to her.

Zhao Zhengyi asked:
"Dad, are you going out?"

Zhao Yuanchao said:
"Yes, I'm going out for a while. You have to be obedient at home and take good care of your sister."

Seeing this, Fang Yan quickly asked:
"Brother-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

My eldest brother-in-law Zhao Yuanchao said:

"When I was watching the movie just now, one of the plots gave me some inspiration. Now I have to go back to the Municipal Bureau to verify my own ideas."

Fang Yan glanced at the time and asked:

"Are we going now? Can't we go tomorrow?"

My brother-in-law shook his head, put on his gloves and hat, and said:
"There's nothing we can do. Time is tight and the task is heavy. The case hasn't been solved yet. Everyone else is working overtime. Only our technical staff are doing slightly better."

"If my idea can help solve the case quickly, then everyone can go back and rest earlier and spend time with their families."

After hearing this, Fangyan couldn't help but respect his brother-in-law.

Said:

"Then I wish you all the best."

My brother-in-law nodded and said with a smile:

"Okay, then I'll go to the Municipal Bureau first."

After saying that, he went out and took the bus.

When Fangyan returned home, he saw a foreign movie being played on TV.

The name of the movie is "Witness for the Prosecution".

The film was released in 1957, 20 years ago.

Fangyan remembers that this movie is adapted from Agatha Christie's novel of the same name.

Speaking of this author, her most famous detective novel is "Murder on the Orient Express".

In my previous life, Fangyan learned about the author Agatha from this movie when I was in high school.

"Witness for the Prosecution" has won many awards abroad and is also a very high-quality suspense crime film.

The story revolves around a man named Wall who is accused of murdering a wealthy widow.

In court, Wall insisted that he was innocent, and his wife Christine appeared in court as a key witness. Everyone thought that the wife would provide a strong alibi and other favorable testimony for her husband. However, unexpectedly, Christine gave extremely unfavorable testimony to Wall in court, which made the direction of the whole case even more confusing.

The movie had just started at this moment, and Fangyan had no idea what inspiration his brother-in-law had just gotten. When he asked the family members who were watching TV with him, they all said they didn't know.

But Fangyan didn't worry too much about it. Since his brother-in-law had been inspired, he could just let him express himself freely.

……

Time passed quickly and it was the next day. When she woke up in the morning, the Queen suddenly told Fang Yan that her period was delayed for more than a week.

When Fangyan heard this, he immediately stopped caring about boxing.

He hurriedly took his daughter-in-law's pulse.

For women with normal physical condition, a preliminary diagnosis can be made by taking the pulse around 40 to 50 days of pregnancy, because the Qi and blood in a woman's body begin to change after pregnancy, and nutritional support is needed to provide for the growing fetus.

However, because the queen is usually treated with dialect therapy, her body's qi and blood are relatively vigorous, so her pulse is usually smooth, so it is a little difficult to judge.

Fangyan tried to judge for a while and found that he was a little excited, which resulted in him being unable to make an accurate judgment. This was the first time he encountered such a strange thing.

Finally, Fangyan used the Tai Chi mentality to calm himself down, and accurate information appeared in his mind.

"How is it?" The queen looked at Fangyan and asked him.

Fangyan tilted his head and said:

"Hmm...I think she's pregnant."

It was the first time that Zhu Lin saw her husband like this. She smiled and joked:
"Doctor Fang, you don't usually talk like this. Be more confident! What do you mean by 'should'?"

Fangyan touched his forehead and found that he was sweating.

He stood up and said to his wife:
"Wait a moment, I'll ask Zhengyi to come over and take your pulse for reference."

Zhu Lin laughed when he heard this:
"Hahahaha...you..."

At this time Fang Yan had to call his little apprentice Zhao Zhengyi to take the pulse and confirm it.

Little Zhao Zhengyi never expected that such a difficult task would fall on him so early in the morning.

I took the pulse carefully for ten minutes.

Then he said:

"The pulse should be smooth and round, like a bead rolling on a plate. The pulse should be strong, smooth and obvious."

"According to the characteristics taught by Master, this should be a pregnancy pulse."

After that, he carefully made a patch:
"However, this is also the first time I feel a pulse of pregnancy, and I cannot rule out the possibility of phlegm and dampness in the body, food stagnation, etc."

Fangyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The young apprentice was very serious, as if he hadn't said anything.

But he calmed down by now.

Considering that the Queen's menstruation was delayed by a week, her complexion appeared to be more rosy and shiny than usual.

It is believed that this is because qi and blood flow into the uterus to nourish the fetus, and the qi and blood on the face are also relatively full.

In addition, in recent times, there have been some changes in my wife's taste and appetite, and when they sleep together, Fangyan feels that her body temperature is also a little higher.

After questioning Zhu Lin, we learned that although she did not have any early pregnancy symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, as a gynecologist, she also found that some of her reactions were consistent with the characteristics of pregnancy.

Therefore, after comprehensive deduction, the dialect makes a positive judgment:
"I'm pregnant."

As soon as the news came out, it quickly spread throughout the Fang family.

Father Fang Zhenhua said that he would immediately send a telegram to his mother who was in Gansu to inform her of the good news.

After the mother-in-law learned about it, she immediately called Beihang University to inform her father-in-law and sister-in-law of the good news. She also asked Fang Yan and Zhu Lin to go to the hospital for another check-up and have their blood pressure and weight recorded.

This is not about not believing in Chinese medicine. The most important thing is to finish all these and get the exact report, and then see if you can take a leave to rest directly.

Given the importance that dialects are receiving nowadays, it should be okay to let Zhu Lin take paid maternity leave at home.

The main reason is the high pressure at work and my mother-in-law thinks it is not good for the fetus.

The eldest sister immediately rejected Zhu Lin's request to make breakfast together, and added protein foods such as eggs, milk, and soy products to her diet.

And I have already started preparing baby clothes, quilts, diapers and other things that my nephew or niece will use later.

When my younger brother heard the news, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate for him to say anything, so he said at breakfast that he planned to give the copyright and proceeds of his second book, which he was currently writing, to his unborn nephew or niece.

In addition, he also called Director Chen and his wife, who were half-relatives of the Fang family.

When Director Chen and his wife heard this, they were very excited, even happier than when they themselves were pregnant, and immediately said that they must come over to see the baby at noon today.

In short, the entire Fang family became busy because of this news.

PS: After finishing this chapter, I still owe you 94000 words.

No more today. Please come early tomorrow.
