Chapter 334: Make peace with what you have come
The old man withdrew his fingers from taking the patient's pulse. His old bones were exhausted and his beard was untidy. "General, you must take good care of yourself. There are several doctors waiting outside. I'll take a nap on the small bed outside. Here..." Facing the people's puzzled gazes, he continued to point to his stomach, "You need to take another dose of medicine in a few days."
"What did you say!" Qin Xiuyuan looked up suddenly.
Seeing the man's extremely shocked and grim expression, the old man shrank his neck, confirming the man's suspicion, "The anesthetic dosage was too high, and the fetus was premature, so it must have been affected. The lady also suffered a blow, and the bleeding is constant."
But the fetus, so strong, refused to shed blood on its own. They bound her tightly, only loosening her legs, hoping she'd struggle and pass it naturally. After all, a one-month-old fetus is just a small clot.
After saying that, he hurried away. Oh my God, that clenched fist is not easy to deal with!
Wangshu was in pain and bloating, and finally she felt uncomfortable. She was so anxious that she turned around and around to find the way home. The streets were bustling with people, and her knees were bumping against each other. She had no choice but to walk quickly to the deserted alleys, listening with her ears perked up. Finally, she found a quiet and deserted corner, squatted down, and put out the inventory without any hesitation.
Her legs and buttocks felt hot, and Wangshu, who was enjoying the release, felt something was wrong. It felt like she had wet her pants. It was too late for her to realize that she was dreaming. She woke up gasping for air, her lower body was warm, and her right shoulder was swollen. The pain of tearing bones and gouging flesh swept over her. She stretched her neck and wished she could fall asleep again.
Having been in the same position for so long, her body ached and her back was stiff. Someone brought a basin of water, gently lifted her up, turned her over, undressed her, wiped her clean, replaced the mat beneath her, and put her back in dry, soft clothes. A soft pillow was placed under her to relax her back.
After a long moment, Wangshu slowly opened his eyes, blurring out his gaze at the silent male nurse. He had a high bun on his hair, a narrow, light purple robe with a stand-up collar, and his cuffs were tied tightly. He was caring for his slovenly, incontinent, bed-wetting middle-aged wife...
There is simply no hope in life.
Qin Xiuyuan washed his hands and came over. He opened the window to ventilate the room. The night breeze was cool. He also wiped the hair on the man's neck. After serving him all these things, he didn't get a single glance. He had to interrupt the man who was daydreaming with his eyes wide open and asked, "Ginseng soup?"
"..." Wangshu didn't look at him. She tried to open her mouth, but the movement of her mouth caused her wound to ache, and she burst into tears. She was afraid of drinking soups with ginseng and anesthetics, but she couldn't chew anything else!
He slowly drank half a bowl of ginseng soup through the bamboo tube, and then went to the toilet. He finally had the energy to look people in the eye and said, "I want to wash my hair."
"It's going to cause headaches, just bear with it for now. Should I press the ginseng slices under my tongue?"
The other party rejected your request and threw a pile of shit at you.
Wangshu closed his eyes and said nothing more.
She even resisted being touched on the forehead, twisting her head. Qin Xiuyuan chuckled softly. A little temper was a good thing. There was nothing you could do about a woman who washed herself diligently. The same was true for postpartum women after childbirth. You always had to give in to her wishes. "Shushu, can you wash your hair tomorrow at noon?"
Thinking about the confinement period, my heart feels bitter.
Only then did he touch her forehead, which was still slightly warm. He felt relieved a little, wrung out a cool handkerchief and placed it on her forehead, and moved the candlelight away to avoid dazzling her eyes.
"Shop on the right side too."
I diligently wrung out the cool towel and laid it on the reddened and swollen flesh, not daring to touch it. It was so swollen. Looking back, I saw the person with his eyes closed snoring, exhausted, having fallen asleep again.
Once awake, it's hard to fall asleep. The wound is deep, the pain is intense, and he tosses and turns, waking and falling asleep. Qin Xiuyuan wipes the tears from his eyes and asks, "Do you want some more anesthetic?"
The wound pulled at his neck, and the right side of his face was swollen. Wangshu didn't want to drink too much herbal medicine, and his swollen lips made it difficult to speak. "Drinking too much will make you stupid."
The old man, eavesdropping from the nearby cot, nodded. "Yes, yes, all medicine is poisonous. But the young woman is quite clever. She could drink a few more to strengthen her husband's authority."
"Then drink dandelion water to reduce inflammation." The general coaxed softly.
"Drink ice milk." The lady had a new idea.
"……it is good."
The old man sighed inwardly when he heard this. What a pity! Such a great general, but he was afraid of his wife like a tiger!
After drinking some ice-cold milk tea to calm the heat in his body, it was already dawn. Wangshu asked people to go to bed, "It's my mother's turn. You go to sleep."
"Mother-in-law is scared. I'll stay with you these days. It's okay, I'll sleep with you."
Wangshu remained noncommittal. Tetanus is also known as the seven-day wind, meaning one doesn't know whether one is happy or sad until seven days have passed. "The old man said I'm pregnant."
Old man: ...respect the old man? He's an old doctor!
"Yeah." Qin Xiuyuan leaned over and looked down at her. "The old man said that this time it won't work. You're having a miscarriage." He was filled with hatred, his eyes as dark as obsidian, and he said firmly, "Shushu, just wait."
"If..." Their faces were close together, Wangshu felt the warm breath, "Do you want me to give birth?"
"I want to!" Qin Xiuyuan didn't even think twice, his eyes sparkling. "I dream about it. But I'm sure I'll prioritize your body first."
"What if he's a fool with missing arms and legs?"
"With such great parents and brothers and sisters, Xiao Xiaobao will never have to worry about food and clothing in his life."
He even has a nickname, Xiao Xiaobao, wow! Such a big man, yet he speaks in such a sweet and mushy way, oh my!
"Go find a fool first." It's easy to say, but hard to do. "Someone really stupid."
"I'm not joking with you, Shushu. If you can't keep the baby, just have it aborted as soon as possible. If you can keep the baby and give birth, just accept it." He kissed the woman, cautiously and proudly. Another seven years, and then he would be a father again!
"Shushu is awesome!"
Wangshu felt that he was really lagging behind. If he had moved to a more fertile land, he would have already had a football team. "I want to eat some ice."
The eavesdropper couldn't help but cough twice. Since he was going to give birth, he still wanted to eat ice!
Wangshu rolled her eyes when she heard the voice. She knew that Lao Buxiu would eavesdrop!
The man changed into a cool towel, pulled up his bra, and woke up after two coughs. He was very old-fashioned and asked someone to bring him ginseng soup. After drinking it, Wangshu felt hot all over and had a heartburn!
Fortunately, Wangshu never had a high fever. Even the old man couldn't help but congratulate her good luck every time he changed the gauze. "The arrowhead was covered in rust. Your husband was very scared and asked me to cut off a lot of flesh. I didn't expect your good-looking but useless little body to survive."
Come to think of it, it doesn't make sense. "It's so small in the belly, but it's still stable. It's very useful at the critical moment!"
He cut deep into the fractured shoulder blade, handling it cleanly and quickly. This old man and that old doctor were truly skilled. Wangshu was truly impressed, his breath light and weak. "The old doctor's medical skills are excellent, and they are even more effective."
"Hey, hey! That's right, that's right. That old man Kang from Xinglinchun is quite capable!" The old doctor bandaged the man swiftly. "It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Let's take care of this bone for now."
"Your right hand will just be a decoration in the future." Her hands didn't have much strength to begin with, so she could only pull the reins.
The old man chuckled, "You girl don't have to do any heavy work."
Just because you don’t have to do housework doesn’t mean you don’t need your right hand.
