Chapter 16 Pregnancy?

That day, Meng Wanqiu woke up at eight o'clock in a daze. She didn't know if it was the sequelae of the previous practice that went wrong. She always felt that she didn't get enough sleep. She went to bed early every day, but she got up later than the family. Even Zhuangzhuang had gone out to play.

She got dressed and went out. Except for Grandma Meng, everyone else in the family went out.

Grandma Meng's room was on the right side of the main house. The middle was the main hall, and the left side was the room of Meng's father and mother. The room behind Grandma Meng's room was the room of Meng Wanqiu and Pei Xingzhi, and the opposite side was where Meng Yanchun and his family of three lived.

Meng Wanqiu first went to Grandma Meng's room to look around. Grandma Meng was sewing shoe soles. Everyone in the family worked outside all year round, so shoes were worn out quickly. When it rained and they didn't work, Meng's mother and Dong Hanyun never put down their shoes.

Meng Wanqiu was still a little confused at this time. She lay down on the bed when she arrived at Grandma Meng's room, and lay down to watch the sound of Grandma Meng sewing shoes.

Grandma Meng saw Meng Wanqiu's face lying on the quilt like a glutinous rice dumpling, smiled, lowered her head and continued her hand movements, "You haven't slept enough, you're already a wife, but you're still so lazy."

Meng Wanqiu yawned, turned over, and continued to look at the roof.

Suddenly, Grandma Meng paused while mending shoes. She didn't know what she thought of. She looked at Meng Wanqiu with three parts of guesses and two parts of surprise in her eyes.

"Nannan, are you pregnant?"

Meng Wanqiu turned her head to the side with a blank expression, "Pregnant for what?"

Grandma Meng slapped her thigh and laughed angrily, "Silly girl, what, of course you are pregnant."

It stands to reason that Nannan has been married for more than half a month. Seeing her sleepy appearance, it is not impossible.

Meng Wanqiu was stunned, and the confusion on her face was instantly replaced by embarrassment.

What? Grandma thought she was pregnant because she loved to sleep. Meng Wanqiu's face was dark.

What? She and Pei Xingzhi didn't do that at all.

"Grandma, I'm not pregnant." Meng Wanqiu held her forehead and explained to her grandmother.

But Grandma Meng didn't believe it, thinking that she was young and inexperienced, "How can it be impossible? You have been married for so long, it's time to be pregnant."

Seeing that Grandma Meng didn't listen at all, Meng Wanqiu had no choice but to tell Grandma Meng that she and Pei Xingzhi had not had sex yet. Fearing that Grandma Meng would misunderstand, she also specifically told her the explanation Pei Xingzhi gave her.

After listening, Grandma Meng was silent for a while. She also received a new-style education and knew a little about these things, but at that time many girls still got married at the age of 16 or 17.

Grandma Meng felt that she had failed in her duty and did not consider these things.

Patting Meng Wanqiu's head, Grandma Meng said in a somewhat depressed tone, "Xingzhi is right, Grandma should have told you this earlier."

Meng Wanqiu shook her head, held Grandma Meng's wrinkled hand and shook it, "I know Grandma wants me to get married earlier and be free earlier."

The Meng family dared not disobey the words of the old man with white beard.
