Idle Chats in the 60s

Jiang Mengxue dreamed that she would return to several decades ago. She decisively sold all her property and filled the warehouse space of the bracelet left by her grandmother.

When Gu Qingbe...

Chapter 275 Delivery

It’s not that Jiang Mengxue is not in a hurry.

But there are so many people in their team, even if only dozens or hundreds of people are willing to come over in exchange for work points, it would be enough for this small sanitation.

If there are too many people sent in by then, Jiang Mengxue can also send them to the county Chinese medicine clinic. If she can exchange them for some money, it will also generate income for the team.

That day, Jiang Mengxue was organizing her previous notes in the clinic.

Jiang Mengxue would record any situations she encountered when reading or seeing patients.

Especially when she encounters rare diseases or has profound experiences, she will write them down and take them out to look at them when she has time. She will find many details that she did not notice at the time.

Jiang Mengxue was very focused when doing things and didn't pay much attention to what was happening outside.

Only when everyone reached the door did Jiang Mengxue hear someone calling her outside.

"Is the doctor here? Is Doctor Jiang here?"

Jiang Mengxue put down the pen in her hand, stood up and walked to the main room in the middle.

"I'm here, what's up?"

A man ran in hurriedly.

"Doctor Jiang, my wife is about to give birth. Please come with me to see her."

Jiang Mengxue turned around and picked up her medicine box.

"Didn't you call the midwife? Who are you from? Are you also from the Leaping Brigade?"

Of course Jiang Mengxue knows how to deliver babies, but in the past, they called midwives here.

Basically, all the children in the surrounding area were delivered by that midwife.

In some families, both the father and the son were delivered by the same midwife from the same street.

"My family is from Team 8, my last name is Ding, and you can just call me Ding Lao San, Doctor. We don't come here very often, so you may not have seen us.

The midwife near us is old and in poor health now. She can't even get out of bed.

I heard from Aunt Gu that Doctor Jiang works in the obstetrics and gynecology department and can also help women give birth, right?

Jiang Mengxue knew the midwife. Almost every family in the surrounding area came to see her, and she was highly respected in their area.

But in recent years, she has appeared less frequently, and basically everyone is acting as her daughter-in-law.

But her daughter-in-law did not learn her skills well enough.

The survival rate of the child and the life safety of the mother are not as reliable as before.

After a long time, no one dared to look for her anymore.

Everyone was originally worrying about whether they would have to go to the commune to hire people in the future. Fortunately, it was a coincidence that Jiang Mengxue came back at this time.

Ding Laosan was running very fast in front, helping Jiang Mengxue carry the box.

Although Jiang Mengxue had nothing in her hands and no burden, her current situation did not allow her to run too fast.

Fortunately, Ding Laosan's wife was giving birth to her third child, and he came to find Jiang Mengxue as soon as she went into labor.

So there is no need to rush at this moment.

It took almost twenty minutes to reach Ding Laosan's house.

This place is quite far from the brigade headquarters, and Jiang Mengxue has never been here.

As soon as Jiang Mengxue arrived at the place, she leaned against the door and gasped for breath. She was so anxious and hurried that she was exhausted.

"Mom, Doctor Jiang is here. How is my wife?"

Ding Laosan's family gave birth to boys in their first two pregnancies. Although they still wanted a boy this time, the desire was not as strong.

Mrs. Ding was boiling water in the kitchen and couldn't run out when she heard the doctor coming.

"Third brother, mother is in your room. My sister-in-law just walked around outside and is now lying on the kang. Where is the doctor you called?"

Only then did Ding Laosan realize that Jiang Mengxue was still outside the yard and had not come in.

Mrs. Ding ran out of the yard and helped Jiang Mengxue into the yard.

"Doctor, are you okay? Oh, doctor, it's been several months now."

Jiang Mengxue's belly is very obvious now, and it can be seen even when she is wearing a cotton jacket.

"How is the mother doing? Is she about to give birth?"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Ding also became a little anxious: "Doctor, please go and take a look. My mother-in-law just felt the baby and said that the position might not be right."

Old Mrs. Ding gave birth to six children herself and has seen her daughters-in-law give birth to more than a dozen grandchildren, so she does have some experience.

Jiang Mengxue frowned but didn't dare to delay, so she quickly asked someone to take her to the house to check on the condition of the woman in labor.

When I entered the house, the woman in labor was lying on the kang, her clothes already taken off.

An elderly lady sat on the kang and touched the belly of the woman who had just given birth.

"Mom, my stomach hurts so much now, is there something wrong?"

Old Mrs. Ding didn't tell her third daughter-in-law because she was afraid she would be too scared and have emotional fluctuations.

As soon as Jiang Mengxue entered the room, she went forward to check on the condition of the woman in labor.

Normally, a baby is born head first, but now the baby is positioned in the belly with its feet down, and the direction has not changed.

"This may require manual rotation of the baby, otherwise it will definitely lead to a difficult birth, and both the adult and the child will be in danger of death."

Old Mrs. Ding saw a young girl and was a little hesitant to believe in Jiang Mengxue's medical skills.

"Why is there such a young doctor? Can you deliver a baby? My dear wife, why don't you go and call a forklift?"

The woman was already having a difficult delivery, and Mrs. Ding really didn't dare to let a young and inexperienced doctor take over.

Jiang Mengxue had long expected that her family would not trust her because of her age.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

"Old lady, I used to work in the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital. It's still not too late to give birth now. If we delay any further, we may have to be sent to the hospital for a caesarean section, otherwise both the mother and the child will die.

You should know how dangerous this situation is. The longer we delay, the worse it will be."

"Ah! My stomach hurts so much, mom. I'm not really going to die, am I? What should I do with the child?

Ding Laosan, you bastard, where are you? Your wife and child are dying and you are still nowhere to be seen.

After hearing what her daughter-in-law said, Old Mrs. Ding also started to get scared.

My lips turned a little pale, but I couldn't come up with any idea.

After a while, a few more people came in. They were all other members of the Ding family, including the old man of the Ding family, Ding Maoshan.

"Big brother's wife, what's going on? She hasn't given birth yet?"

Mrs. Ding has always had a good relationship with the third son's wife, so when she knew she was about to give birth, she came to help early in the morning.

But now she also knew that the situation was urgent, and she didn't dare to go into the house to disturb them, for fear of disturbing the third son's wife from giving birth.

"Dad, I heard from you and the doctor that the third daughter-in-law might have a difficult birth, but Mom might think the doctor is too young and doesn't dare let her try. How can we delay giving birth? The longer we delay, the more dangerous it will be, right?

If I don't dare let the doctor try, I'll have to rush to a big hospital for surgery. The doctor said, "How can this be called a cesarean section? They just make an incision in the belly and take the baby out."

How could these country folks have ever heard of a caesarean section?

Just hearing that they have to operate on the abdomen to remove the baby, doesn't that mean the mother's life is in jeopardy? Who would dare to do that?

The other members of the Ding family were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak.
