"Don't speak yet, let me examine you and see what's wrong," Lin Qingyan said to Wu Cuiying.
There was only Jiang Tiezhu there, and Lin Qingyan ordered him to help Wu Cuiying take off her pants.
Jiang Tiezhu didn't hesitate at all. He did whatever Lin Qingyan asked him to do, and quickly went to take off Wu Cuiying's pants.
After she took off Wu Cuiying's pants, Lin Qingyan looked at them and found a red clump. She told them, "The baby has already come out."
She estimated the size of the gestational sac and concluded that the baby was about two or three months along.
"It's flowing, it's flowing out!"
Jiang Tiezhu and Wu Cuiying were both stunned, unable to believe it was true.
Then Wu Cuiying burst into tears, "My son, my son, I'm so sorry, I didn't protect you. My son, whom I finally had, is gone so quickly! Waaah, God, you're not fair to me, not fair at all!"
Lin Qingyan pointed to the gestational sac and told Jiang Tiezhu, "This is the gestational sac, and the baby is inside it."
Jiang Tiezhu froze, his eyes fixed on the bloody mess, shaking his head in pain.
"Gone? Just like that? My son is gone? God, why do you always have to work against me? My son, my son! My child, my child."
He, a grown man, lay on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and cried with red eyes.
Lin Qingyan scolded him, "Stop crying, we'll need your help later."
Wearing medical gloves, she picked up the gestational sac and set it aside. Jiang Li quickly took the gestational sac to examine it.
"Something else will come out of her body later. Go boil some hot water to clean her," Lin Qingyan instructed Jiang Tiezhu.
"good."
Just as Jiang Tiezhu turned around, Lin Qingyan discovered another gestational sac of the same size in Wu Cuiying's pants. She immediately called out to Jiang Tiezhu, "Don't go yet, your wife is pregnant with twins, there's another one here."
"What! Two?"
Wu Cuiying cried even louder when she heard this.
Jiang Tiezhu was even more heartbroken and saddened.
Doesn't this mean his wife was pregnant with two sons, but they both died at once?
Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, crying even louder than Wu Cuiying.
"My son, I have lost both of my sons. Waaah, am I really that unlucky? I finally had sons and then they were taken away."
He had only cried twice when he heard Jiang Li shout.
"Cry, cry, cry! What are you crying for? I just checked, it's a girl, not a boy."
Upon hearing his mother's words, Jiang Tiezhu immediately stopped crying, "It's not a boy."
Jiang Li came over and said, "I just checked it out, and it's a girl, not a son. You've been worrying about her for nothing. I told you long ago that your wife doesn't have the guts to give birth to a son."
Jiang Tiezhu didn't seem so upset anymore. "But I gave Cuiying the potion for changing the sex of her child that I got from Granny Liu yesterday. Could it be that the potion didn't work?"
Upon hearing his words, Lin Qingyan could only think of one thing: "He's hopelessly stupid."
Ignorance is indeed more terrifying than anything else.
Lin Qingyan picked up the other gestational sac and put it aside. This gestational sac was also taken away by Jiang Lishi for examination.
After a while, some more fluid flowed out of Wu Cuiying's body, and Lin Qingyan cleaned it with a sterile cotton swab.
"No one can do anything about losing a child. The adults need to rest well and recover so they can have another one later."
At this moment, Jiang Li ran in again, holding a small red thing in her hand, and showed it to Jiang Tiezhu: "I see it, I see it, this is my son, this is my son." She even poked at the little thing with her fingers: "Look, look. This is a boy with a penis, it's your son."
Jiang Tiezhu seemed to have seen something too, and this time he couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed to the ground.
“Son, I did have a son, but suddenly I don’t anymore.”
Lin Qingyan asked Wu Cuiying, "Why did you miscarry? Did you bump into anything, do heavy work, or engage in strenuous exercise? What did you eat these past two days? Some foods can easily cause miscarriage."
"I knew I was pregnant, and of course I had to take good care of myself if I wanted a son. I didn't do any heavy work or bump into anything. I've been staying in bed as much as possible these past two days and haven't done any strenuous exercise. I've been eating the same food as usual. The only thing is, I drank some medicine prescribed by the sorceress, but it's a magic medicine to change the sex of the baby. How could it possibly cause me to miscarry?"
Lin Qingyan told her, "Whether you believe it or not, I have to tell you that there is no medicine in this world that can change the sex of a fetus, let alone any miracle drug. You must believe in science and medicine. If you haven't bumped or fallen, haven't done heavy work, and your diet is normal, then that packet of medicine is very likely the culprit that caused your miscarriage."
"Wh-what?"
Wu Cuiying stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
It wasn't that she didn't believe Lin Qingyan's words, but instinctively, she didn't want to admit the mistakes she had made, nor did she want to believe that the miscarriage was her fault.
When she felt discomfort in her stomach today, she was afraid that something might happen to the baby, so she asked Jiang Tiezhu to call Liu Shenpo.
When Liu the fortune teller arrived, she chanted "Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, spirits" for a while, but her stomach pain didn't improve; instead, it got worse.
The fortune teller, Liu, said that the gods were not home today and could not save their sons, so she told them to go find a doctor, and then she made her escape.
