"Doctor Yun, are you at home?"
Yun Huaying was sitting at the kitchen door eating boiled peanuts. When she heard Li Xiami's voice, she immediately stood up and said, "Brother Xiami, I'm home."
Li Xiami had just started working at the soy products factory. After seeing Han Zheng, he learned that Yun Huaying had also returned. He immediately asked for leave from Tian Ye and hurried over to find her.
"Doctor Yun, are you free now? Can you come to Qu Dan's house to see him?"
"She's had stomach pain for the past two days. I asked a midwife to see her, and she said it wasn't time for her to give birth yet. But she's been feeling unwell and even woke up in pain in the middle of the night last night."
"Okay, I'll go check on her." Yun Huaying immediately went back to her room to get the medicine box and said to Lin Shan and the others, "Lin Shan, I'll go check on Sister Qu."
"Go ahead."
Qu Dan has been pregnant for more than nine months and her due date is this month. Except for the fact that Yun Yumei prescribed the wrong medicine and she almost had a miscarriage, she has been taking good care of herself in the past few months. She has been working normally and has only been resting at home these days because she has been feeling unwell.
Qu Dan was resting in bed. Seeing Yun Huaying return, he seemed to have found his backbone and quickly stood up. "Doctor Yun, when did you come back?"
"Half an hour ago."
Yun Huaying put down the medicine box and saw that she looked in good spirits. She asked her, "Brother Xiami said you have a stomachache. What kind of pain does it feel like?"
"Doctor Yun, my stomach has been hurting a lot these past two days. It's not the kind of pain you'd feel if you were about to give birth. I feel like the baby is kicking me inside my belly. It's a bit like the fetal movements I've had before, but it's been very painful these past two days."
Qu Dan had asked her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law before. They had all given birth to children. According to their experience, her stomach pain this time was not because she was about to give birth.
"Brother Xiami, help her lie down. I'll check her out."
After checking for about five minutes, Yun Huaying looked a little serious and said to them, "It was the child kicking in there. He's not feeling well, so he kicked your stomach."
"Is the child feeling unwell?" Li Xiami and his wife's faces changed.
"Well, there's something wrong with my sister-in-law's uterus. Unlike normal women, the baby is growing inside her belly, especially very quickly this month. The abnormal uterus affects his movement inside, and it's causing him a lot of discomfort."
"What should we do then?" Qu Dan was anxious.
"You're now over nine months pregnant, which is considered full term. You've been eating and drinking well, and both you and your baby are healthy. I suggest you go to the hospital to give birth. I'll give you medication to induce labor and deliver the baby early to prevent any unexpected accidents later."
Li Xiami had no objection to giving birth in the hospital. She asked, "Doctor Yun, will there be any problem with using medication to induce labor?"
"No, hospitals often use labor-inducing drugs, and they are used by women with special labor conditions. Sister Qu, don't delay any longer in this situation. Give birth to the baby sooner, and both mother and child will be safer."
"Okay, okay, I agree." Qu Dan trusted her medical skills and asked hurriedly, "Doctor Yun, shall we leave now?"
"There's no rush. You can rest at home first. We'll return to the city this afternoon, and you can take our car to the city hospital to give birth. The medical facilities there are much better, and they have a more complete range of medicines. Giving birth there is safer."
"Okay, we'll listen to you." Li Xiami didn't consider anything else, as long as the mother and daughter were safe.
"Doctor Yun, when are you leaving?"
"Around three o'clock in the afternoon, prepare the things you'll need for the birth. The car can seat three people. It's best to ask your mother-in-law or your mother to accompany you. It's always better to have a female elder take care of you."
Li Xiami responded repeatedly, "I'll go call my mother-in-law right now."
His mother works in a soy product factory and has been very busy recently and has no time to spare. He had previously asked his mother-in-law to help take care of him during the confinement period.
Qu Dan asked again, "Doctor Yun, are you going to give birth this afternoon?"
"Go over there and rest for the night. I'll check you tomorrow morning. If there are no problems, I can arrange for induction in the morning."
"good."
When Yun Huaying returned from the Li family, Han Zheng also came back and asked her, "Huaying, how is Sister Qu doing?"
"Her uterus is slightly deformed, and the baby is uncomfortable inside, kicking her stomach constantly. I asked them to go to the city hospital with us this afternoon, and use medication to induce labor tomorrow."
Han Zheng thought that giving birth was not easy for women, and it was no different from walking through the gates of hell. He had previously thought about having more children, but now he no longer had that idea. He put his arm around her shoulders and whispered, "Let's have one child from now on, no more."
"Don't be scared by Sister Qu's special condition. I'm in good health and this won't happen to me."
“Giving birth is painful.”
Han Zheng had this common sense. Besides, his aunt was an obstetrician and gynecologist. He had heard her talk many times about women dying from heavy bleeding during childbirth. He didn't dare let her take the risk.
"Let nature take its course. It's okay if it's one, or two. If you get pregnant, just give birth."
Yun Huaying actually wanted to experience the feeling of being a mother, and she was also looking forward to their child. As for the pain of childbirth, every woman has to go through it, so maybe it's painful and happy at the same time.
Han Zheng saw that she seemed to like children very much, and with a smile in his eyes, he whispered in her ear, "I will work hard."
Yun Huaying: "...Asshole!"
Han Zheng smiled and said that he would let her know what a real bastard was when he got back.
When Jiang Yuan came back from work at noon, the meal was already prepared, even the rice was served, and the four of them were sitting at the table waiting for her to come back.
"Oh, sorry to have kept you waiting." Jiang Yuan quickly rushed into the room to wash her hands.
As soon as she sat down, everyone started eating. Yun Huaying passed a chicken leg to Lin Shan and said, "Happy birthday, have a chicken leg."
"Thank you." Lin Shan grinned.
Jiang Yuan picked up some braised pork for her and said, "You can tell it was cooked by Huaying. The color and taste are amazing. Eat it quickly."
"You guys eat too." Lin Shan greeted them with a smile.
The two men were taking care of their respective partners. Jiang Yuan didn't need their care. She picked up some food and ate it herself, sharing her joy with Yun Huaying: "Huaying, I forgot to tell you a piece of good news. The collection of military stories I submitted last month was published by the magazine. They mailed me the royalties last week. Guess how much it was?"
"762.68."
Lin Shan had told her already, and Yun Huaying smiled and told her the exact number.
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "If you answered correctly, I'll give you a signed magazine as a reward later."
"That's a must." Yun Huaying chuckled.
Han Zheng had previously heard Yun Huaying talk about Lin Shan's children's story writing. He smiled and said, "You two are quietly publishing your works and making a lot of money. With your talents and abilities, it's really a waste of your talents to stay here as educated youth."
"The atmosphere here is good, the work is easy now, and we can spare time to create. We feel great." Lin Shan quite likes her current life.
The two of them were very low-key and never told anyone outside that they made money by submitting articles. Other people also asked them, but they lied and their articles were not accepted. Occasionally, one of them was accepted and they only received a few dollars in royalties, so gradually no one asked anymore.
