Qiao Mei had no choice but to give up the struggle and follow Xia Fang to the hospital for a full-body checkup. After a long and busy day, the results of all Qiao Mei's physical examinations showed that there were no issues and that she was very healthy.
"Aunt, can you tell if there's one baby or two? Boy or girl?" Qiao Mei asked curiously.
Xia Fang looked at Qiao Mei suspiciously and asked, "Why are you asking this?"
Based on her own work ethics, she did not discuss this aspect of the baby with pregnant women and their families. In this era, sons were favored over daughters. Most families would decide on an abortion once they found out that the baby was a girl. There were times when they even refused to listen to her advice and both the mother and child ended up dead. This happened so many times that Xia Fang was greatly affected by it.
