The unveiling ceremony of the Liyang County Liaison Office in Binhai hosted a luncheon, with a total of eighteen tables set up in the banquet hall.
Yu Zhiming and his family, including Zeng Yan and Xiaobo's girlfriend Jiang Feng, were all present, a total of twenty people.
They sat at two tables.
The third oldest member of the Yu family, Yu Xinyue, and her husband took the initiative to sit at the junior table on the pretext of taking care of their youngest seven-year-old daughter, Song Qiao.
As for Zhou Mo and Sun Lin, they sat at the table next to Yu Zhiming's table to prevent unexpected situations.
Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning are on the left hand side of Yu's father and Yu's mother, and further to the left are Yu Xiangwan and Zhang Bai, the fourth oldest members of the Yu family.
Yu Zhiming briefly exchanged greetings with the two people who came over to say hello. As soon as they sat down, they saw the fourth sister rubbing her eyebrows.
Only then did he notice that the fourth sister's thin face was full of exhaustion and her expression was a little ugly.
"Fourth sister, are you still so busy recently? So tired?"
Yu Xiangwan put down his hand, smiled softly at Yu Zhiming, and said, "It's been fine lately, I've been a little more relaxed. I have a lot of routines to follow in my work. The main reason is that I went to bed late last night to do my accounting."
"Fourth sister, your health is important, don't be so rushed at work."
Yu Zhiming expressed concern, then stretched out his hand and said: "Fourth sister, extend your hand to me to check!"
"Lao Wu, have you made progress again? Can you tell whether you are healthy or not just by shaking hands?" Yu Xiangwan asked with a smile, and at the same time stretched out his hand.
Yu Zhiming held the fourth sister's hand across Qing Ning and explained: "The main thing is to understand the heart through the pulse."
"At our age, as long as there is no problem with the heart, even if there are problems with other organs, it won't be a big problem."
Speaking of this, Yu Zhiming's expression condensed, and then he said to Qing Ning beside him: "Let's change positions."
Qing Ning didn't know what problem Yu Zhiming discovered, so she quickly stood up and gave up her seat.
Yu Zhiming moved his buttocks, sat next to Yu Xiangwan, and reached out to touch her belly.
The next moment, Yu Xiangwan noticed that his brother's hand was patting and pressing on his lower abdomen, and he couldn't help but become worried.
She lowered her voice and asked: "Lao Wu, um, is there really something wrong with my health?"
"Don't scare me!"
Yu Zhiming did not answer, and it was not until more than ten seconds later that he took back his hand for inspection.
Facing the worried looks of Yu Xiangwan and the people at the table, he suddenly smiled and said, "Fourth sister, there is something wrong with your health..."
Yu Zhiming did not show off, and then said: "Fourth sister, you are pregnant."
"Pregnant?"
Yu Xiangwan's eyes doubled in size in an instant, and he questioned: "How is that possible? Your brother-in-law and I are paying attention!"
She suddenly thought of something and asked eagerly: "Lao Wu, how long have I been pregnant? Be precise."
"About ten days." Yu Zhiming gave a number.
Yu Xiangwan immediately turned to Zhang Bai on the left, stretched out his hand to twist the soft flesh on his waist, and said angrily: "Aren't you sure that if you don't use it once in a while, there will be no problem?"
"I'll screw you to death! I'll screw you to death!"
Yu Zhiming and Yu Xiangwan did not deliberately lower their voices during the exchange just now, so everyone at the table knew it.
Zhang Bai, who only had a silly grin on his face, seemed not to notice the pain on his body at all, and said hehe, "I didn't expect that I would be so powerful. I did it that time..."
"Blame me! Blame me!"
Yu's mother, whose worries were gone, said happily: "Fourth, this is a good thing, you have to have children sooner or later."
"It's better to get pregnant early than to get pregnant late."
Yu Xiangwan loosened his grip on Zhang Bai and said with an aggrieved look, "Mom, there are so many jobs in the company. My original plan was to have a child after a year or two, when the company's development is on track."
"Now, the plan is all in disarray."
Zhang Bai quickly expressed his position and said: "Xiang Wan, I will definitely handle the company's affairs. You can just take care of your baby with peace of mind."
He asked Yu Zhiming again, "Your fourth sister has been busy these days and has lost a lot of weight. How is her body?"
Yu Zhiming nodded slightly and said: "The body is indeed a little weak and needs to be taken good care of."
Yu's mother decided: "It just so happens that Lao Wu and Qing Ning are going on vacation. Lao Si, you move to Lao Wu first. During this time, the boss and I will give you a good refreshment."
Yu Zhaoxia also spoke, but she said it to Zhang Bai.
"Brother-in-law, the fourth child is pregnant now. It's hard to live in such a small rental house anymore. Is there a problem with this house?"
Yu Zhiming also followed up with the suggestion: "Since you are pregnant, don't think about a new house. Not to mention that the renovation will take a long time. The main reason is that the newly renovated house is polluted, which is not good for pregnant women and children."
"Just buy a second-hand house that is better decorated and can be moved in with your luggage."
Yu Zhiming added: "Fourth sister and fourth brother-in-law, as for the money to buy a house, if you don't have enough money for the moment, you can get it from me first."
Zhang Bai said: "Zhi Ming, the company is developing rapidly, and money is really hard to come by. Your fourth sister is pregnant now, so I won't be polite to you."
He said confidently: "In two years at most, I will pay back the principal and interest."
Qing Ning chuckled and asked: "Fourth sister, fourth brother-in-law, do you have a goal for this house?"
"If not, I can help search for it."
Zhang Bai glanced at Yu Xiangwan and said, "Xiangwan and I had a serious talk about this house. We both agreed..."
"Qing Ning, the Jiji Gongguan community where your house is located is quite good. The surrounding schools are good and all kinds of facilities are good and complete!"
After a pause, Zhang Bo added: "Of course, we don't need to buy such a big house. I saw that Ji Mansion also has relatively smaller three-bedroom and four-bedroom apartments."
Yu Zhiminghao said angrily: "Since you like that community, let the real estate agent help find a suitable one in the community. As long as it is not a particularly luxurious mansion, funding is not a problem."
At this time, a magnetic male commentary voice suddenly sounded.
This is the big screen in the banquet hall, where a promotional video for Liyang County begins to play.
This also means that the reception luncheon is about to officially begin.
The chatter in the banquet hall quickly disappeared, and the guests who were chatting around returned to sit at the dining table.
The seats at Yu Zhiming's table have also been appropriately adjusted. Yu Xiangwan, an expectant mother who has been promoted to a key protected person, sat between Yu's mother and Yu Zhaoxia, listening to their experience.
Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning's seats were not changed back.
"Zhi Ming..."
Qing Ning came closer to Yu Zhiming, lowered her voice curiously and asked: "When did you learn to take pulses in traditional Chinese medicine?"
"Otherwise, why did you know that Fourth Sister was pregnant when you held her hand just now?"
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "I can't take the pulse."
"However, taking a pulse is to detect changes in pulse. What I just checked was also the changes in Fourth Sister's pulse."
Yu Zhiming explained softly to Qing Ning: "The meaning of reading a hundred times is self-evident. I have done physical examinations on many pregnant women. I am very familiar with the changes in the pulse of pregnant women."
"Just checking Fourth Sister's pulse gave me that familiar feeling, so I checked her lower abdomen."
Qing Ning snorted and said with a smile: "It seems that girls can't let you touch their hands casually. It would be bad if you discovered the secrets that cannot be disclosed."
Yu Zhi took a look at her and proved his innocence: "I rarely touch girls' hands..."
After the screening of the seven-to-eight-minute promotional video, County Magistrate Cheng gave another five-to-six-minute speech, and then the luncheon officially began...
More than half an hour later, Yu Zhiming, who was still eating and drinking, noticed someone poking him.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw a little guy with a greasy mouth. He quickly looked at the little guy's hands...
Yu Zhiming breathed a sigh of relief, his little hands were still clean and not greasy.
He pulled a napkin and wiped the little guy's mouth.
"Xiaoqiao, are you full?"
Song Qiao nodded, then pursed his lips, stretched out his right hand, and said pitifully: "Uncle, just yesterday, my grandpa hit my hand with a ruler."
Yu Zhiming looked at Song Qiao's right hand, but didn't find anything wrong, and asked, "Why did I hit you?"
Song Qiao hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Grandpa Shi said I didn't care."
Yu Zhiming asked again: "Does it hurt a lot?"
Song Qiao nodded and shook his head and said: "It hurt a little at that time, but Grandpa Shi said that if he does it again next time, it will be very painful."
"Uncle, can you tell Grandpa Shi not to use corporal punishment but to use other punishments?"
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "That's your master, and he's also my teacher. What I say doesn't make any difference."
"If you don't do it next time, won't you get beaten?"
Song Qiao said with a sad face: "Uncle, learning Chinese medicine is so difficult. I have to remember a lot of things. Sometimes I can't remember them."
Yu Zhiming touched the top of her head and said, "If you want to treat diseases and save people like me when you grow up, you have to study hard."
Song Qiao looked like he was about to cry and said, "But, it's really difficult. There are so many words and strokes that are difficult to write and remember."
"And, and..."
Song Qiao gestured with his hands and said: "With such a long needle, my uncle said that he has to pierce it on himself when studying."
"Uncle, I'm scared and don't want to learn Chinese medicine anymore." Song Qiao finally cried.
Yu Zhiming finally understood that the little guy was not afraid of difficulties, but was afraid of pricking himself with needles.
This little girl has always been afraid of injections.
Yu Zhiming held back his laughter, stretched out his arms to hug the little guy, and said, "That's what my uncle is scaring you for. Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture only hurts others, not yourself."
"Really?" Song Qiao asked in confirmation!
Yu Zhiming said seriously: "Of course it's true. Have I lied to you before?"
He said in his heart, this is a white lie. After all, it is impossible to learn acupuncture so early, at least three to five years later.
At that time, Xiaoqiao, who was in his teens, had already overcome his fear of injections.
However, Yu Zhiming needed to communicate with Ye Laotong to prevent someone from Licorice Hall from deliberately scaring Xiao Qiao with acupuncture.
At this moment, Yu Zhiming suddenly heard someone shouting in the banquet hall: "Doctor Yu, Doctor Yu, come and help me."
