Transmigrated as the Villain Boss's Precious Darling Chapter 229: The Blessed Little Golden Mouth
"It must be true! My little girl is a blessed child, after all. Lana’s pregnant!" Phoebe Huxley slapped her thigh, startling everyone in the room.
Everyone then rembered Tang Xiaonan’s new status—wasn’t she a blessed child?
Raina finally snapped out of her daze, spinning in circles with excitent. As she turned, she muttered, "She must be! Byron, check Lana’s pulse. See if it’s a pregnancy pulse!"
Frederick Thorne nodded eagerly. "Dad, hurry and check. Lana hasn’t been feeling well lately. It could be because she’s pregnant."
The smile on Byron Thorne’s face froze. ’If I really knew how to read a pregnancy pulse, I’d have opened my own clinic by now.’ But he didn’t want to lose face in front of his wife and son, so after a mont’s thought, he ca up with an idea.
"What’s the rush? There’s a proper procedure for a diagnosis. We have to follow the steps. We can’t just jump ahead."
Byron Thorne spoke slowly and deliberately, giving him the air of a seasoned physician. He put on a show of examining Lana Steiner. ’Her complexion is terrible, and she’s so thin. She barely had an appetite at dinner, either. All classic symptoms of early pregnancy.’
"When was your last period?"
Lana Steiner’s face flushed red. She lowered her head, too embarrassed to answer. With her brothers-in-law there, how could she bring herself to say it?
Raina grew impatient. "You’re not a little girl anymore. What’s there to be shy about? Hurry up and tell us, when was it?"
"Her period is irregular; it’s common for it to be a couple of weeks late. Her last one was around the end of the month before last," Frederick Thorne answered for her, knowing his wife’s health like the back of his hand.
Raina pursed her lips. ’He’s more devoted to his wife than to his own mother. If n could give birth, my second son would probably do that too, letting Lana Steiner just sit back and beco a mother without lifting a finger.’
Phoebe Huxley, however, was quite envious. ’Felix is a coarse and careless man. He never rembers when my period is due, and even when I’m sick, he never fusses over . The most he’ll do is tell to rest at ho.’
’Lana Steiner is the lucky one. Even when she couldn’t have children, Frederick still treated her so well.’
"It’s already been more than two weeks. No need to check the pulse. She’s definitely pregnant. The two of you should go to the clinic tomorrow and get it confird."
Byron Thorne was already quite certain, which was why his tone was so firm. In truth, his greatest confidence ca from his "blessed" granddaughter. ’A granddaughter guided by the gods wouldn’t be wrong.’
"Dad, won’t you check one more ti?" Frederick Thorne couldn’t hide his excitent, rubbing his hands together eagerly. Lana Steiner’s eyes welled up with tears; she had never dread that she could have a child of her own in this lifeti.
Byron Thorne waved his hand dismissively. "No need. It’s a hundred percent certain. Don’t travel on the dark roads tonight. Head back to town in the morning."
"We’re not going back! We’ll stay here tonight. Am I really going to be a dad? HAHA... Xiaonan, you’re our little bird of good fortune! Your Second Uncle will have soone buy you so White Rabbit candy!"
The ecstatic Frederick Thorne acted like a madman, grabbing Tang Xiaonan and tossing her into the air several tis. He nearly scared her to death, and not even the promise of White Rabbit candy could soothe her terrified little soul.
Still, seeing the beaming smiles on Frederick Thorne’s and Lana Steiner’s faces made Tang Xiaonan happy too. ’I hope I’ve really changed the fate of my second uncle and aunt... and that of their poor little boy.’
"This dicine..." Raina hesitated. "Should we use it or not?"
Raina was in a tough spot. The dicine had cost ten yuan; it would be a terrible waste not to use it. But now that Lana was pregnant, she definitely couldn’t take it. How about—
"Aurelia, you take this ho and use it!"
Raina shoved the dicine into Phoebe Huxley’s hands. ’My eldest daughter-in-law is healthy. Maybe she can have another one!’
Tang Xiaonan was horrified and imdiately cried out, "Mommy, don’t take that! I don’t want a little brother with a tail!"
