Just like obesity, young age, and advanced age, pregnancy itself is a high-risk factor for many diseases.

On this basis, if the pregnant woman is over 35 years old and becomes obese, the high-risk level will increase by several levels.

Morton is in her 50s, and her wife Ella is the second wife, only 40 years old. The two are more than 10 years apart, and Ella looks young. But if Morton is removed, it is not easy for her to conceive a child at the age of 40.

This is not easy to be comprehensive. (1)

As the age gets, not only will the difficulty of conception increase, but the incidence of congenital dementia and certain congenital malformations in the children born will also increase year by year. At the same time, the incidence of miscarriage, premature birth, and stillbirth in older pregnant women will also increase, and pregnant women themselves are more likely to cause complications such as hypertension and diabetes.

Most complications disappear after the pregnancy is over, but the older you are, the lower the chance of disappearing.

Once you take root in your body, it will be a lifelong thing.

Ella married Morton eight years ago, and was his second wife. After giving birth to a daughter, she is now pregnant again. It seems like a happy thing, but she has always been obviously obese and has taken several steps forward in her age. Now she is a typical example of an elderly pregnant woman.

Fortunately, when I went to Lehn Hospital for a physical examination, the doctor did not find hypertension or diabetes, but my pregnancy was not yet halfway through, so everything was still hard to say.

If Qi Jing and the other two were not here today, Morton and Ella might choose to endure in the room, one day, two days or even three days. They would not leave home and go to the hospital until the discomfort exceeds their expectations.

Morton is okay with saying that he is very strong and healthy in normal times. But Ella is different. A 40-year-old pregnant woman must be very cautious even if she has a common cold, not to mention h1n1, which has high fever and is extremely easy to invade the lungs.

Just as Ji Qing asked about Ella's condition, her body temperature was quietly rising. After the question was completed, the result of 38.1℃ forced Ji Qing to call Qi Jing.

Qi Jing thought that Moton was almost 30 years old, but she didn't expect that Moton was married for the second time, and she didn't notice that his wife was so younger than Morton: "There are actually pregnant women and children... I've gotten a little miscalculated."

“What should I do now?”

"Are the symptoms serious?"

"Fortunately, it's not as exaggerated as her husband. The little girl looks okay, there's no problem."

"The car has been out for so long, and her symptoms are not serious, so there is no need to go back." Qi Jing thought about it and made a decision for him. "I think it's better to isolate them at home first, and pay attention to separate the mother and daughter. A pregnant woman is already very exaggerated. If you get an early childhood child, you will definitely be troublesome."

"Isolate first...I understand." Ji Qing sighed, "Fortunately the little girl has no symptoms, I hope she can be fine..."

The Chinese language used by the two of them to communicate, and after getting the advice, Ji Qing needed to convey the spirit of "isolation" to Ella. But when he really spoke the words, it made him feel a little embarrassed. There are many words that mean quarantine, but they also have other meanings.

For example, "isolation" means more isolation, "segregate" and "insulate" both separate and partition...

If it is nothing in other situations, it is normal for foreigners to speak English with ambiguity. But now the other party is an elderly pregnant woman and her husband is sent to the hospital with a high fever, which is the most vulnerable time.

In the end, Ji Qing used a more professional phrase "be    kept    in     quarantinen", which means a clear medical isolation.

However, Ella has lived in a small town since she was a child, and she studied averagely and did not go to college. "quarantinen" is a strange word to her. But she understands "kept     in" and, with Ji Qing pointing at her room, Ella is trying to limit her freedom.

"You want to lock me in the room?"

"It can't be considered a quarantine, it's just an isolation." Ji Qing saw that she was a little excited and realized that she had not expressed it clearly, so she tried her best to explain, "Just stay in the room and don't go out."

"Don't go out? This is not a question of whether to go out or not. You are restricting my freedom at this time!" Ella was very excited, "You are imprisoning this way! You are committing a crime!!!"

Before Qi Jing's phone was hung up, he could hear the conversation between the two: "What did you say to her?"

"It's just quarantine. I used very accurate medical terms. She was very excited after hearing this."

"No?"

"She said I was committing a crime..." Ji Qing didn't understand what she did wrong.

After hearing this, Qi Jing roughly understood what Ella meant: "In a sense, it is indeed a bit, you should put it more tactfully. It is indeed unconstitutional to restrict the freedom of others in the United States."

“So serious…”

Ji Qing wanted to ask a few more questions, it would be best to let Qi Jing resolve this conflict. But Qi Jing still has his own business to do, so he has no time to care about such trivial matters: "I have to call Chris and you can handle the disinfection work of the pig farm as soon as possible."

After saying that, he hung up the phone and left Ji Qing alone.

"What's this called, it's inexplicable."

He couldn't help but complain, turned around and wanted to talk to Ella again, and moved him to understand his reason. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, the Kung Fu suddenly disappeared, "Where is the person, why is the little girl gone..."

Ji Qing stood at the entrance of the stairs on the third floor, and it was impossible for the mother and daughter to go downstairs.

Ella did not give him too much time to doubt. Not long after, a rhythmic metal collision sound came from afar. Then a long black metal tube was crossed in the air with the help of Ella, pointing easily to Ji Qing's forehead.

Ji Qing had never seen such a scene and was stunned.

He has grown up so big that he has only seen guns on TV and movies, and he has no idea what real guns look like. Moreover, he has always been a good student and has good interpersonal relationships. Except for being cheated by gangsters around him once when he was a child, and having money been cheated by Qi Jing a few times when he grew up, he has never been threatened by others.

Who knew that God had a conscience and found out that today he was able to get it right and directly experience the feeling of snatching his head.

"Ira, don't be nervous, I just said 'quarantinen' based on medical theory, and there is no other meaning."

Ji Qing quickly raised his hands and expressed a misunderstanding: "And I just made a suggestion! It is recommended that you stay in the room, try to separate from your daughter, and try not to go out. They are all 'suggestions' and 'try to try', there is no intention of forcing you!"

"Of course I know you are the advice, but you have to check the situation when giving advice. Morton is not at home now, Jack (Little Morton) is not here, and I can only take care of my daughter. I am her mother, and she must stay by my side! Must!!!"

Ella held her belly with her hands blocking her daughter with one hand, and threatened with a gun with the other: "Young man, be careful when you go to Texas in the future. Talking like you will have a bright head!"

Ji Qing first realized the American people's persistence in "freedom".

He looked at the cold barrel on his forehead, feeling really scared, but what should be explained: "Your husband may have been infected with the flu virus. You have a fever now, and maybe similar symptoms will appear later. Influenza virus is generally susceptible to people. If you let your child stay with you, it is only a matter of time to get infected with the virus."

When I heard the "flu", Ella was obviously hesitant, but after thinking for a while, she still said: "It's just the flu. Our country will have flu every year, and it's no big deal..."

"But this is not an ordinary flu!"

Ji Qing retorted: "It is more likely to affect the lungs than ordinary flu, and it is very dangerous for elderly pregnant women like you and young children like your daughter. And the virus itself can attack the heart and cause viral myocarditis."

"But no one can take care of her now!"

"Me!" Ji Qing pointed at himself, "I can take care of..."

"No, you can't do it. She is afraid of strangers, and she is afraid of the cloth on your face!!!"

Listening to Ella's hysterical voice, the daughter beside her also took out the water gun that she had prepared for a long time, and hummed Ji Qing's face: "Bad man!"

"Okay ok ~"

Ji Qing quickly took two steps back and left the range of the water gun, wiped her wet face, and then said, "I am a stranger. I don't get close to her, but at least you have to let your daughter wear a mask. Even if you want to stay in the same room with her, for her health, you must try to stay away as far as possible and keep a certain distance."

Although Ella was a little rude, she could at least listen to the words: "What?"

"I'll call and ask Mr. Morton to come back as soon as possible and ask him to take care of his sister. How do you think of this method?"

After hearing this, Ella finally put down her gun.

She actually didn't want this, but Texas are born without restraint.

Freedom is sacred and inviolable, not to mention that the person who wants to "isolate" himself is still a Chinese. He speaks that he wants to isolate and separate from his daughter. How could her mother agree? In Aila's eyes, Ji Qing is simply dancing on the verge of death.

As for this gun, she brought it from her mother's home in Texas, and there were dozens of bullets. The pig farm was built in a remote countryside and the scenery was indeed good, but compared to the police station dozens of kilometers away, guns can usually protect themselves better.

Until now, Ji Qing's face was covered with sweat.

He took out his cell phone and called Qi Jing again, but the phone was in a busy state: "What's wrong with this guy? Who are you talking to again..."

"Forget it, I think I'll fight."

Ella also took a few steps back and took her daughter to the door of her bedroom, then stood her shotgun on the ground, alerting Ji Qing, taking out her cell phone and dialing: "Hey, Jack, let your dad listen to the phone."

"Dad? He's almost confused, so let's talk to me."

"Can you come back when you arrive at the hospital?"

"Ah? What did you say?" Little Morton glanced at his father, and his ears were full of Qi Jing's phone call. "Mom, you said it louder. I'm too noisy here to hear!"

"I said, can you take time to come back after you arrive at the hospital!!!"

"Come back? I can't let my dad stay in the hospital alone."

"I'm also having a fever. They think I'm also getting flu, so I'm going to separate my sister and you!" Ella's voice even began to tremble when she said the word "isolation". "Your sister is only 5 years old, and there are so many strangers in her family. How can she sleep alone?"

Little Morton hesitated a little, thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll drive back after I'll send my dad to the hospital..."

"No, you can't come back as soon as you enter the hospital." Ji Qing suddenly interrupted, "I remember that he is the only family member, and you have to sign after entering the hospital!"

"signature?"

"Yes, sign, and then the emergency doctor will have to deal with the corresponding treatment according to the condition, and all these need to be signed!"

"You fool me!"

Ella's anger that had just been suppressed surged up again, and she raised her hunting rifle and raised her hand: "If my son doesn't come back, don't try to separate us, mother and daughter!"

"Okay, okay, listen to you, don't separate!" Ji Qing said quickly, "Put down the gun first!"

"...Please leave here, I'm going to rest with my daughter." Ella pointed at the stairs behind him with the barrel, then looked at the packaging bag in his hand, "By the way, leave the mask!"

Ji Qing nodded and placed the mask on the cabinet beside him: "I'll disinfect the room later."

“What disinfection is used?”

"Don't worry about the disinfectant used in the pig farm. They are disinfectants that can sterilize viruses and have no side effects on people."

This time, Ella did not explode, but returned to the room quietly. Ji Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurried downstairs. Such an experience was exciting enough for one time. He didn't want to come again.

......

Qi Jing on the other side didn't know that so many things were happening in the pig farm.

Since he hung up Ji Qing's phone call, he has been involved in arguing with the local CDC.

The first person answered the phone was a doctor from the CDC in Lehn Town County. Because he was on duty, his attitude was not good: "Lehn County Center for Disease Control and Prevention is now off work. If there is no urgent matter, please wait for 9 am tomorrow to call."
