The text clearly states, "Triggering plot rules: Shen Banxia and Zhou Mingqian's child is detrimental to the plot and should not be born. Considering Shen Banxia's merit in saving people in her previous life, merit points can be obtained to exchange for the birth of her child."

Shen Banxia felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar; her heart seemed to have stopped beating, her face was drained of color, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

"Xiaxia, wife, what's wrong?" The man's anxious voice rang in her ears, but Shen Banxia's gaze was fixed on the transparent screen.

Her thoughts returned to the terrifying thunder and lightning that had just struck; this was no joke.

Forcing herself to calm down, she looked at the anxious man and said, word by word, "I'm—okay." She would be alright, and her baby would be alright too.

No one could stop the birth of the baby in her belly.

Taking a deep breath, he looked at the Zhou family members with their various expressions and said, "I'm feeling a little unwell, I'll go back to my room first."

Back in her room, Shen Banxia felt completely limp.

She still feels lingering fear. If she hadn't tested him just now, would her baby have been lost like in the story?

Zhou Mingqian, who arrived shortly after, hugged his trembling wife tightly, saying, "Xiaxia, I'm here."

"Zhou Mingqian, our baby will be alright, right? Right? Huh?"

"Yes, he will be alright. He will come out safe and sound. Xiaxia, believe me. I will take good care of you and Zai Zai," Zhou Mingqian assured him.

He didn't know why his wife felt insecure, but he knew it must be because he hadn't done enough. He also knew about his wife's family situation; with a stepmother came a stepfather, and he didn't know where her only loving grandparents had been sent to.

Back then, if they hadn't found someone they knew beforehand to send their wives down to the countryside under the guise of being sent-down youth, who knows what that scoundrel who was so eager to climb the social ladder would have done.

In Zhou Mingqian's arms, Shen Banxia slowly calmed down. Right now, her most important thing was not to lose her baby because of the so-called plot rules.

As for earning merit points, she figured that whether in her past life or this one, she couldn't escape the word "medicine."

To be honest, she was truly heartbroken by what happened in her past life.

However, in this life, thanks to the good karma created by her grandparents, she was arranged to come to Zhoujiazhuang under the guise of being sent to the countryside as an educated youth, thus escaping a calamity.

Having thought it through, Shen Banxia looked at Zhou Mingqian firmly and said, "I'm going to take on the responsibility of treating and saving lives."

Zhou Mingqian knew about his wife's situation and looked at her in surprise, "How did you suddenly come to this conclusion?"

Shen Banxia lovingly stroked her belly, "Let's do this for the baby's good karma. You know how I came to be from the countryside."

Zhou Mingqian thought about it for a moment and asked, "Xiaxia, are you worried about the baby's nutrition?"

These days, even if you can't open your own clinic, you can still earn work points, and some respectable families will give you gifts.

Shen Banxia couldn't talk about the screen; after all, it was too bizarre, and she didn't know where to begin.

Besides, telling him would only make him worry.

He nodded. "Yes, now that everyone lives together, it's not convenient to cook a special meal for everyone. You know my situation. Isn't there a selection process for barefoot doctors right now?"

Zhou Mingqian knew, of course, that Shen Banxia, ​​who came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, would have no problem running for barefoot doctor.

But she really couldn't bear to see her daughter-in-law suffer.

Come to think of it, if it weren't for the Down to the Countryside Movement, how could a country boy like him have ever met Xiaxia, who was raised like a pampered young lady from a wealthy family?

Shen Banxia was incredibly clear-headed and resolute. Although she had been confused by her past life, she was deeply fascinated by her grandparents' careful teachings and the profoundness of traditional Chinese medicine.

She thought it was time for her to let go of the resentment from her past life.

"Zhou Mingqian, I've made up my mind."

“Okay,” Zhou Mingqian said without further ado. He couldn’t break his wife’s wings just because he felt sorry for her. He wasn’t the kind of petty man who would be unhappy just because his wife was capable.

Looking at Zhou Mingqian, who was completely devoted to her, Shen Banxia felt that since coming here, she not only had loving grandparents, but also a lover who believed in her wholeheartedly, and now she had a child who was related to her by blood.

No matter what lies ahead, she will definitely keep her child.

Fortunately, she now has the script in her hands.

"Xiaxia, if you're going to be a barefoot doctor, what do you think I should do?" Zhou Mingqian felt that since his wife was now striving hard, he couldn't hold her back.

"It's up to you. I can support you too," Shen Banxia said, having made up her mind, and even had the urge to joke around.

"Xiaxia~, you're so sweet," Zhou Mingqian felt so happy. When his grandparents were alive, he was the one who was favored. Now his wife said she would take care of him. He was so happy.

However, since his wife is so capable, he should also strive to be worthy of her.

The couple were discussing their future plans, while Zhou Mingjiao outside felt like everything was working against her. However, she was surprisingly good at dealing with everyone else in the family, except for her eldest brother, who was incredibly difficult to handle.

They never give in to me, it's so annoying! What can I do to punish them?

Zhou Mingjiao felt that everyone in the family should go along with her.

Just as he was thinking this, Zhou Mingqian helped Shen Banxia out and said, "Dad, isn't there a selection process for barefoot doctors in the team? My Xiaxia wants to sign up."

"Brother, aren't you reluctant to let your sister-in-law work in the fields? Are you willing to let her go and treat patients? Besides, with your sister-in-law's lazy and gluttonous nature, can she really do it? Aren't you just using connections?"

"Zhou Mingjiao, if you can't speak, then shut up. Nobody will think you're mute."

“Mom, look at my older brother, all he does is criticize me,” Zhou Mingjiao said, having gone on and on without putting on an act.

Zhou's mother had a headache. She didn't know why, but the eldest and youngest sons were naturally at odds. Whenever they got together, it was a wonder they didn't exchange a few words.

"Alright, let's see what your father has to say," Zhou's mother said, too lazy to continue the lawsuit.

Zhou Mingjiao puffed out her cheeks and glared at Shen Banxia with hatred. She felt it was all Shen Banxia's fault for having ill intentions. Although her older brother had been excessive before, he had never been this excessive, always arguing with her.

Shen Banxia, ​​who was taking the blame, didn't care about all that. Anyway, in the script she saw, Zhou Mingjiao was a pretty weirdo. In her world, everyone had to love her and pamper her.

After a moment's hesitation, Zhou's father said, "Alright, report the eldest son's wife's name."

Zhou Mingjiao complained, "Dad, what can my sister-in-law do? All she does is try to take things from me."

Zhou Mingqian boasted, "Don't forget, my wife also graduated from high school."

The Zhou family then came to their senses. Shen Banxia's image as a lazy and gluttonous woman was so deeply ingrained that they had almost forgotten about her even after four years of marriage.

Seeing that her father had agreed, Zhou Mingjiao's eyes lit up and she instantly had an idea.
