Li Mingqing didn't expect that he would get a job after going out.

Go to the hospital.

Li Xiaoqiang's wife Zhao Yanli was lying on the hospital bed, sweating profusely.

His mother-in-law was holding a bowl of dusty water.

"Yanli, I am your biological mother and I will not harm you. Listen to me and drink this bowl of water. The pain will go away after drinking it, and I guarantee you will give birth to a son. Mother-in-law, please persuade this child quickly."

Li Xiaoqiang's mother frowned and said disapprovingly, "Don't embarrass Yanli."

"How can this be a problem? I'm doing this for the sake of your Li family. If I don't give birth to a son as my first child, I'll be laughed at."

"We don't care about that."

His mother-in-law lowered her voice and insisted, "I bought this talisman with great difficulty. It says that I will definitely give birth to a son."

Li Xiaoqiang refused and said, "Mom, it's okay to have a daughter."

"Pah, pah, pah, it's definitely going to be a son. Yanli, drink this bowl of water."

She ignored Zhao Yanli's pain and insisted that she drink the bowl of water.

This was the second time Li Mingqing had seen such a weird person, except for the weird person like Old Lady Zhang.

Burning paper and placing it in water can guarantee the birth of a son?

My brain is rusty.

Feudal superstition is unacceptable.

People who don’t know would think that the old woman is Zhao Yanli’s stepmother.

Li Mingqing said, "It's so useful, drink it yourself."

"Who are you?"

"Auntie, this is Doctor Li Mingqing."

Yan Li Niang said with a look of disgust: "Why is it a male doctor? Men and women should not be intimate with each other. I kicked out all the male doctors who came before. It must be a female doctor."

Li Xiaolan quickly said, "Ming Qing is very powerful. People from the capital come to him for treatment."

"No matter how powerful you are, it won't work."

Xiaoqiang's mother took charge and said, "Doctor Li, please take a look. My daughter-in-law has been in pain for a whole day and night and hasn't given birth yet. The doctor said the fetus is in an abnormal position. Is it dangerous?"

"The fetus is in an abnormal position and should undergo surgery."

"Yes, the previous doctor also suggested surgery, but—"

She didn't finish her words but looked at Yanli Niang twice.

This relative is really unreasonable and won't agree no matter what.

If this continues, my daughter-in-law and the baby in her belly will be in danger.

Li Xiaoqiang said hurriedly: "Then do the surgery."

Yan Li Niang jumped out again and said, "No, childbirth is like this, no surgery is needed."

Zhao Yanli was in so much pain.

He whispered, "Mom, I need surgery."

Yanli's mother sat by the bed and held her hand. "My daughter, hold on. This is how childbirth is. It will be fine once the pressure is over. I've lived for so many years and I've never heard of anyone needing surgery after childbirth. In fact, you don't even need to go to the hospital. Why spend the money?"

Li Mingqing couldn't help but ask:

"Xiao Qiang, is she your wife's stepmother?"

Li Xiaoqiang said awkwardly, "Mother."

"Oh my! This is the first time I've seen a mother who doesn't care about her own daughter's life or death. Your wife's fetal position is indeed abnormal. If this continues, I'm afraid someone will die."

"We agree to the surgery," he said anxiously.
