Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 972 Tang Yanling is pregnant!
Time flies, another week has passed. At seven o'clock in the morning, the Jia family members were all sitting at the dining table eating breakfast quietly. Tang Yanling picked up a fried dough stick and was about to take a bite when the smell of oil made her feel like her stomach was churning. Instinctively, she put down her chopsticks, quickly stood up from her chair, and ran outside to dry heave.

Upon seeing this, Bang Geng was overjoyed at his wife's improved health. He immediately put down his chopsticks and followed her out of the house, asking Tang Yanling with a worried expression, "Yanling! What happened to you?"

Qin Huairu, who was having breakfast, was visibly taken aback when she saw this scene. However, she quickly recovered, put down her chopsticks, and hurried to the door. With a look of anticipation, she asked Tang Yanling, "Yanling! Are you pregnant?"

Tang Yanling felt particularly distressed upon hearing Qin Huairu's question. Initially confused, she asked Qin Huairu in bewilderment, "Mom! What? You're pregnant?"

Upon hearing Tang Yanling's question, Qin Huairu immediately asked, "Yanling! Are you pregnant? Have you had your period this month?"

Everyone sitting at the dining table was visibly taken aback when they heard Qin Huairu's question to Tang Yanling. Jia Zhangshi, who had been hoping that Tang Yanling would get pregnant soon, was the first to react and happily said to Qin Huairu, "Huairu! Judging from Yanling's posture, she's probably pregnant."

Bang Geng was also stunned when he heard Qin Huairu's words. It wasn't until he heard what Jia Zhangshi said to Qin Huairu that he came to his senses and excitedly asked Tang Yanling, "Yanling! Is what Mom said true? Are you really pregnant?"

Tang Yanling, who had been in a daze because of Qin Huairu's question, also came to her senses when Bang Geng asked her this question. Thinking about the exact time of her period, Tang Yanling's mood suddenly became extremely excited, and she replied, "Mom! My period this month seems to have been more than twenty days late. Am I really pregnant?"

Upon hearing Tang Yanling's answer, Banggeng immediately jumped up with joy, then hugged Tang Yanling tightly, shouting happily, "I'm going to be a dad! I'm going to be a dad!"

Upon hearing Tang Yanling's reply, Lin Qiuyue smiled and said to the excited Jia Zhangshi, "Mom! Congratulations! You're going to become a great-grandmother!"

Congratulations from Jia Zhangshi and Lin Qiuyue. Thinking about how she was about to become a great-grandmother, she excitedly replied, "No! I must quickly offer incense to the ancestors of the Jia family and ask them to bless our Yanling so that she can give birth to a big, healthy grandson for the Jia family."

Seeing the reactions of Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu, and the others, Jia Dongming was also very happy. He then instructed Bang Geng, "Bang Geng! When you get to your unit later, ask your team leader for half a day off, then drive my car to Yanling's unit to pick her up, and then take her to the hospital for a check-up."

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's instructions, Banggeng immediately nodded and replied, "Uncle! I understand. When I get to work, I'll ask our team leader for leave and then take Yanling to the hospital for a checkup."

"Dad! My sister-in-law is pregnant, does that mean I'm going to be an aunt?" Jia Anqing asked Jia Dongming while eating fried dough sticks, seeing the happy elders.

When Jia Dongming heard Jia Anqing's question, he reached out and patted his precious daughter's head, replying affectionately, "That's right! After your sister-in-law has her baby, you'll be an aunt. When that happens, remember to share any delicious food you have with your nephew or niece."

Because Banggeng needed to take Tang Yanling to the hospital for a check-up, after breakfast, Tang Yanling didn't ride her bicycle to work as usual. Instead, she took Jia Dongming's jeep to the department store to ask for leave. The jeep quickly stopped in front of the department store. Banggeng opened the driver's side door and happily told Tang Yanling, "Yanling! After you ask for leave, wait for me here. I'll take your uncle to his workplace and then come back to pick you up to go to the hospital."

Upon hearing Banggeng's instructions, Tang Yanling, thinking about the possibility that she was pregnant, smiled happily and reminded Banggeng, "Banggeng! Drive carefully on the road!"

Tang Yanling stood at the entrance of the department store and watched Bang Geng drive away with Jia Dongming before turning around and walking into the department store.

"Yanling! Why is your husband driving you to work today?" Just as Tang Yanling turned to walk into the department store, a young girl's voice suddenly came from behind her.

Hearing a familiar voice calling from behind, Tang Yanling subconsciously stopped. When she saw who it was, she replied happily, "Zhou Jing! I had something to do today and was going to ask my boss for leave, so I didn't ride my bike to work."

"Lingling! When are you going to ask for leave?" Tang Yanling's words had just fallen when Wen Xiaorong's question suddenly came from behind them.

Upon hearing Wen Xiaorong's question, Tang Yanling immediately turned to her mother and replied happily, "Mom! I think I'm pregnant. My mother-in-law told me to ask my boss for leave. After Banggeng asks his team leader for leave, he'll drive over to accompany me to the hospital for a checkup."

Upon hearing Tang Yanling's explanation and learning that her daughter was pregnant, Wen Xiaorong's face immediately lit up with ecstatic joy. She quickly asked Tang Yanling for confirmation, "Lingling! Is it true? You're really pregnant?"

Hearing her mother's question and seeing the overjoyed expression on her mother's face, Tang Yanling, thinking about the news that she was about to become a mother, happily nodded and replied in a sweet voice, "Mom! My period has been more than twenty days late. Under normal circumstances, I should be pregnant."

Upon hearing Tang Yanling's reply, Wen Xiaorong quickly reached out and grabbed Tang Yanling's wrist, saying, "Lingling! What are you still standing there for? Mom will take you to ask your boss for leave. After Banggeng arrives, Mom will go with you to the hospital for a check-up."

Upon learning of Wen Xiaorong's decision, Tang Yanling immediately said to Wen Xiaorong, "Mom! When we go to the hospital later, Banggeng can accompany me. You don't need to take time off work to go to the hospital with me."

Upon hearing Tang Yanling's reply, Wen Xiaorong rejected it without hesitation: "No way! The baby in your belly is my grandson. I have to go to the hospital with you for a check-up. Only when I'm sure you're really pregnant can I truly feel at ease."

Soon, the mother and daughter asked their boss for leave and waited for Bang Geng's arrival at the entrance of the department store. The news of Tang Yanling's pregnancy spread like wildfire within the department store.
