It was pouring rain on the day He Yinhua was buried.

Even the heavens seemed to be weeping for this unfortunate woman.

That night, Jiang Xuan mumbled incoherently.

Lu Shengye quickly turned on the light and saw that Jiang Xuan's face was completely red.

I touched her forehead; it was burning hot.

He quickly jumped out of bed, put on his clothes, and hurriedly helped Jiang Xuan get dressed.

Walnut is having trouble sleeping tonight too.

Hearing the noise, she came out too.

Seeing Lu Shengye holding Jiang Xuan, she was also taken aback, "What happened?"

"Auntie, Xuanxuan has a high fever, I have to take her to the hospital."

“It’s raining heavily outside, how can we get to the hospital? You can wipe her armpits, neck, hands and feet with alcohol, it will help lower her temperature.”

“Auntie, she’s delirious with fever. Simply cooling her down with physical methods won’t work. I have to take her to the hospital.”

Lu Shengye glanced at the thunder and lightning outside, placed Jiang Xuan on the sofa, and found a raincoat.

He picked her up again, wrapped her tightly, and rushed into the rain.

Doctors at the military hospital quickly diagnosed Jiang Xuan with a fever accompanied by a severe bacterial infection and severe anemia, requiring intravenous fluids.

As dawn approached, Jiang Xuan's fever subsided. When she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Shengye sitting by the bed, holding her hand.

"Xuanxuan, you're awake? How are you feeling? Let me get you some water."

Jiang Xuan pulled him and shook her head, "I'm much better. Did you not sleep all night?"

"How can I sleep when you have a high fever?" Lu Shengye held her hand and said seriously, "Have you been eating properly at school lately?"

During this period, due to taking care of her mother and being busy with her studies, she really didn't eat on time, and when she did eat, it was just a quick and easy meal.

She felt a little guilty and said, "I ate it."

“You’re still lying to me. The doctor said you’re malnourished and have severe anemia. Now that Mom’s gone, you have to come home after school from now on. I’ll take you to school in the morning.”

Mentioning her mother, Jiang Xuan's mood began to sink again.

Jiang Xuan knew that most of it was the original owner's emotions.

She has never been able to accept the fact that she has no relatives left in this world.

It will probably take some time for people to accept it.

Seeing Jiang Xuan's eyes dim, Lu Shengye comforted her: "Xuanxuan, I know you are very sad, but it is a good thing for Mom to leave like this. She did not suffer too much in the hospital."

"Yes, I know."

"You need to cheer up quickly. Your mother in heaven would want you to be happy."

yes.

What her mother wanted most was for her to live a good life, didn't she?

Although He Yinhua regrets not being able to reunite with her son, she did fulfill her filial duties to this mother on behalf of the original owner of the body during this period.

The gloom and heaviness in her heart vanished, and Jiang Xuan suddenly felt relaxed.

Jiang Xuan propped herself up on the bed and tried to sit up.

"Be careful with the IV drip." Lu Shengye quickly helped her up.

“Shengye, you’re right. Mom is free now. She doesn’t have to suffer anymore. What I need to do now is live a good life.”

“Yes, that’s the right way to think.” Lu Shengye patted her head, went over and poured her a glass of water. “You haven’t eaten all day, drink some water first, I’ll go buy you some porridge.”

"No need, it's not even dawn yet, where are you going to buy porridge? I don't have much of an appetite right now, you should go to sleep."

There's a breakfast shop outside that opens very early.

Jiang Xuan glanced at the IV drip; it still contained more than half a bottle of medicine.

After lying in bed all night, she felt a bit stuffy and decided to go for a walk.

As soon as she reached the stairwell, she saw Lu Tingting rushing over from the other side in a hurry.

"Lu Tingting?"

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

"You had a slight fever last night. What are you doing here?"

"Please, sister-in-law, help me persuade my mother."

"What happened?"

Lu Tingting said in a tearful voice, "My mom is about to give birth. The doctor said the baby is breech and she needs a C-section, but my mom just won't have it. I was just about to call my grandma."

Where's Dad?

“Dad received an emergency mission in the middle of the night yesterday and is not home. My mom is emotionally agitated and won’t listen to anyone.”

Lu Tingting was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

"Let's go take a look."

"Sister-in-law, let me get you the IV drip."

They rushed to the obstetrics and gynecology department, where Wang Yingqiu was covered in sweat, but still refused to agree to a cesarean section.

The doctors were at a loss and could only take turns correcting the baby's position.

But it was completely useless.

Jiang Xuan explained to the doctor that she was a family member of the pregnant woman, and after receiving permission, she came to Wang Yingqiu's side.

Wang Yingqiu, writhing in excruciating pain, didn't even bother to pretend, and asked in an unfriendly tone, "What are you doing here?"

“The doctors here are all professionals. They have assessed your situation. You have a difficult labor and need a cesarean section. If you delay any longer, both you and your baby will be in danger.”

"This isn't my first child, I know what I'm doing."

“Every child is different. The doctor just said that the amniotic fluid is already contaminated. Why don’t you agree to a C-section?”

Wang Yingqiu started crying: "I'm afraid of pain. I'm afraid of having surgery on my stomach and hurting my baby."

These days, although cesarean sections exist, they are not common and are mostly performed in large hospitals. Moreover, many people still tend to believe that children should be born in the traditional way.

“This is a military hospital, and Dad is a leader in the military. Don’t you trust the doctors here? Think about it, the baby isn’t getting any oxygen in your belly right now. If this continues, he will suffocate.”

"You should be grateful that cesarean sections exist. Just think, if this medical technology had existed in ancient times, how many women would have been spared this misfortune."

Wang Yingqiu finally agreed.

The attending physician outside the door also breathed a sigh of relief, put on a mask, and called to the nurse next to him, "Prepare for surgery."

Lu Tingting finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, sister-in-law. I didn't have time to say much because of my mother's matter. I know you must have been too upset because of Aunt's situation, which is why you got sick. I also feel very sad about Aunt's situation, and I hope you can cheer up."

Jiang Xuan nodded: "Thank you, I will. You can stay here with Aunt Wang for now. Your brother might be back, I need to go check on him first."

"Okay, I'll take you."

"No need, you wait here for Aunt Wang, I'll come over later."

As soon as Jiang Xuan came down the stairs, she ran into Lu Shengye at the top of the stairs.

The latter looked worried and asked, "Where did you go just now?"

"She went to the maternity ward. Aunt Wang is having surgery. Dad isn't here. She might have given birth prematurely. Her family didn't come either. Only Tingting is there with her."

Lu Shengye frowned. "What does her giving birth have to do with me? Let's go back to the ward. Breakfast is ready."

Jiang Xuan patted his hand. "Giving birth is a big deal for a woman, especially since it's your younger brother or sister. Why don't you go and see if there's anything you can help with?"
