"He's the one who saved me."
Bai Ying was afraid that Chu Xianglan would worry, so she didn't say that she had hurt Chen Gouzi. Instead, she pushed the blame onto Zhao Dayong. "I ran into some hooligans at the commune today, and it was this PLA comrade who saved me and drove me back home."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xianglan looked at Zhao Dayong with gratitude in her eyes. She simply didn't know how to thank him. "Thank you! Thank you, PLA comrade. If it weren't for your help today, I don't know what would have happened to my daughter."
Chu Xianglan's enthusiasm made Zhao Dayong feel a little embarrassed. He couldn't expose Bai Ying directly, so he scratched his head and laughed dryly, "This is what our people's soldiers should do."
Chu Xianglan held Bai Ying's hand distressedly, "My God, Yingzi, what happened to you this afternoon?"
"Mom, that's a long story."
While Bai Ying was chatting and laughing, he glanced at Huang Xia opposite him with interest.
Huang Xia was dumbfounded as soon as Bai Ying appeared. "Impossible! How could you come back? You clearly, you should..."
According to her cousin's plan, he would bring Bai Ying back to Shitou Village to finalize the marriage, and then the whole family would send Bai Ying back early tomorrow morning and finalize the marriage between Bai Ying and her cousin.
Why is Bai Ying back now? Where is her cousin?
Taking another look at the male soldier who brought Bai Ying back, Huang Xia didn't dare to think any further.
"Why not?" Bai Ying looked at Huang Xia with a smile, "What do you mean, sister-in-law? Do you think it's normal for you to think something has to happen to me?"
Huang Xia opened her mouth wide, and it took her a long time to find her voice. "I, I didn't! Sister-in-law, I'm concerned about you. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but how can you slander me? Do you still suspect that I harmed you?"
Bai Ying asked back, "What else? If what happened today has nothing to do with you, how come the person who acted rudely towards me happened to be your cousin?"
Chu Xianglan glared at Chu Xianglan angrily, "Old lady! You've been married here for so many years, and I honestly don't think I've ever neglected you in the slightest. When you were in confinement, I even treated you well with delicious food and drink. How could you do such a heartless thing!"
Huang Xia's eyes rolled around in her sockets. "I don't know anything. It has nothing to do with me."
She reacted quickly. Since her cousin was in trouble, she must not be involved with it.
She didn't show up directly in this matter, and Bai Ying had no evidence that she was involved in this matter, so what could she do to her?
"Really?" Bai Ying wasn't in a hurry. "But Chen Gouzi confessed as soon as he entered the police station. He said it was you who suggested that you leave on the way back and leave me alone so he could come out and do something to me. If he succeeds, I will have no choice but to marry him."
"Nonsense! This is his own idea! What does it have to do with me!" Huang Xia said angrily subconsciously.
She has loved her cousin from her mother's side since she was a child. In order for her cousin to get married, she even schemed against her own sister-in-law. She is so good to her cousin, how could he put all the blame on her?
Bai Ying laughed immediately. "Oh? If you didn't discuss this with your cousin beforehand, how would you know this was his idea?"
Huang Xia understood instantly, "Bai Ying, you cheated me!"
"Huang Xia, what else do you have to explain at this point?" Zhao Dayong walked towards Huang Xia with a cold face. "I initially suspect that you are involved in this case. Come with me to the police station."
"no!"
Huang Xia retreated hurriedly, her eyes dodging. After a moment, she seemed to remember something and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, I'm pregnant! I'm carrying the Bai family's eldest grandson in my belly. You can't arrest me!"
Zhao Dayong sneered, "Pretending to be pregnant, huh? It just so happens that when I send you to the police station, I'll also take you to the commune clinic for a checkup. That way I'll know whether you're really pregnant or just pretending."
Huang Xia shook her head like a rattle, "I'm not going to the clinic! Anyway, I'm pregnant, you can't touch me!"
Zhao Dayong scoffed, "You don't even dare to do a checkup, who would believe you're really pregnant?"
Bai Ying frowned and looked at Huang Xia, and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you sure you are really pregnant?"
This kind of thing never happened in my previous life.
At that time, Huang Xia had already divorced her eldest brother and moved back to her parents' home. From beginning to end, there was no news that she was pregnant with her eldest brother's child. How come a child suddenly appeared in this life?
Huang Xia puffed out her chest proudly, "My son is well and truly in my belly. How could this be false?"
Bai Ying pointed at Zhao Dayong and said, "If you weren't pregnant, would you have just followed him to the police station?"
"...Okay! I promise you." Huang Xia pulled Bai Ying and Chu Xianglan with her, full of energy, "Let's go to my mother's house now. There's an old Chinese doctor there with excellent medical skills. It was he who diagnosed me with pregnancy!"
"Yingzi, are we going?" Chu Xianglan looked at Bai Ying inquiringly.
Bai Ying knocked away Huang Xia's impatient hand and said indifferently, "It's just a pregnancy. Why go through so much trouble? I'll just give you a checkup."
"Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Xia burst into laughter, her tone undisguisedly mocking. "Bai Ying, even though you're the brigade's barefoot doctor, you only went to the county hospital for a month of training. At most, you can give injections and prescribe medicine. How can you even take a pulse? Traditional Chinese medicine isn't that easy to learn! Even if you're bragging, don't brag like that, okay?"
Bai Ying was not angry about this. She directly answered Huang Xia's questions with her actions.
Bai Ying grabbed Huang Xia's arm and took her pulse.
She had not been trained in the county hospital for a long time, and the content of the training was simple modern medical knowledge. However, there was a lot of content about traditional Chinese medicine in the "Barefoot Doctor Manual", and taking the pulse was only the most basic content.
In her previous life, although she had lost her job as a barefoot doctor, people still came to her for treatment. With more practice, her skills naturally improved.
After practicing medicine for decades, Bai Ying doesn't dare to say that he is a medical genius, but he is definitely better than most barefoot doctors of this era!
She cannot perform overly delicate operations such as surgery and internal medicine, but Chinese medicine is her forte!
Bai Ying's index finger, middle finger and ring finger were skillfully placed on the Cun, Guan and Chi areas of Huang Xia's wrist. The pulse under her fingertips flowed smoothly, as smooth as beads rolling on a jade plate.
It's... slippery pulse.
Bai Ying's eyebrows jumped and she pursed her lips slightly.
Chu Xianglan and Zhao Dayong, who were standing next to them, were very nervous. Although they wanted to know the result, they kept their mouths shut and dared not say a word, for fear of affecting Bai Ying's judgment.
It was not until Bai Ying let go of her hand and finished taking the pulse that the two of them began to ask questions hurriedly.
"How is it? Is your sister-in-law really pregnant or is she faking it?"
