The next day, Zhu Qilin had no reception tasks, so he couldn't take Xie Wan with him to approach foreign guests.
Xie Wan went to Qin's house early in the morning with the breakfast he bought from the canteen of the guesthouse.
Lou Qingyue couldn't help but ask Xie Wan: "Xiao Wan, what are you busy with? Why aren't you home?"
Xie Wan just smiled and brushed it off.
She secretly stuffed a stack of money and tickets into Lou Qingyue's pocket and said, "Mom, I'm here to work, so I can't tell you about work.
Makino asked me to bring these tickets to you.
You are too thin, go buy some more nutritious food to supplement your body."
Lou Qingyue refused to accept it.
“Don’t give me these, your eldest sister secretly gave me a lot, and I didn’t dare to spend them.
Take it back, eat well for yourself and Xiaoye, and give me a grandson as soon as possible. That is the important thing to do."
This was the first time that Lou Qingyue induced labor in front of Xie Wan. Xie Wan choked and didn't know how to respond.
Lou Qingyue didn't notice Xie Wan's embarrassment and continued to ask, "You and Xiaoye have been married for almost a year, why is there no movement?"
Xie Wan had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Mom, I'm not even 24 yet. I'm also an officer now, and I must follow the country's policy of 'late, rare, few'."
Lou Qingyue seemed dissatisfied and complained, "I just don't believe it. You are a legal couple. If you really have a child, can you still be punished?
I am reminding you that if you want to have a baby, do it quickly.
I, your mother, have been through this before. I've heard from others that the rules will get stricter in the future, and by the time you want to have a baby, I'm afraid you won't be allowed to do so."
Xie Wan couldn't help but look at Lou Qingyue with admiration. He didn't expect that this eldest daughter of a capitalist family had such a forward-looking vision.
Isn't it true that in a few years, even if you want to have another child, you can only have one?
These few years were the period when the family planning policy was just beginning.
If Xie Wan and Qin Muye hadn't rushed to get their marriage certificate last year, by this year, given Xie Wan's age, they wouldn't even be able to get one.
Because of the rapid population growth, the policy of “one is not too little, two is just right, and three is too many” was advocated starting from 1971.
At the end of December 1973, the first national family planning report meeting proposed the policy of "late, sparse, and few"?
"Late" means that men get married after the age of 25 and women after the age of 23, and women give birth after the age of 24;
"Rare" means the birth interval is more than 3 years;
"Fewer" means a couple has no more than two children?
By 1976, cadres were required to have only one child, and in 1978, family planning was officially included in the Constitution.
Xie Wan didn't want to have more children, so naturally she was not in a hurry.
But people nowadays still believe that having many children means more blessings. Not only Lou Qingyue, but even Xie Dahong, who have sensed the changes in the birth policy, have begun to urge Xie Wan to hurry up and have a baby as soon as possible.
Xie Wan finally managed to coax Lou Qingyue into submission. After having breakfast at Qin's house, he went to Zhu Qilin's house.
Zhu Qilin's home is not far from Qin's home. It is still early and Zhu Qilin has not gone to work yet.
Zhu Qilin was overjoyed when he saw Xie Wan arrived as promised.
When he saw the gift of apprenticeship in Xie Wan's hand, he smiled even more happily.
"Xiao Wan, I'll be satisfied if you're willing to learn from me. Why do you have to do these cliché things?"
Xie Wan handed a slaughtered sheep to Zhu Qilin's wife and joked, "Master, you are too polite. According to ancient etiquette, a disciple must pay a tuition fee when he becomes a disciple.
You can't teach me less just because I gave you less tuition, right?"
If the chickens in the space had not been turned into "fighting chickens" by Xiao Diao, Xie Wan would not have killed a breeding sheep as a gift for his apprenticeship.
After all, there are only four breeding sheep in her space, and she will have to find a way to make up for it after returning.
There are a lot of cows, but they are too difficult to kill. In the past, Qin Muye helped her kill them and stored them in the space.
This time, the beef was all gone, and she was not willing to fight the bull herself.
The Zhu family's living conditions were better than the Qin family's current ones. Zhu Qilin himself had no children, so the couple lived in three rooms, one of which was converted into a treatment room by Zhu Qilin.
Zhu Qilin pointed to the clinic and said, "I come back from get off work and see my neighbors here."
As the two were preparing to go to Zhu Qilin's office at the Medical University, a man and a woman holding a child rushed to the door of Zhu's house and stood in the yard shouting, "Doctor Zhu, help me."
Zhu Qilin rushed out in three or two steps, and Xie Wan followed behind him.
Xie Wan saw the child that the couple was holding. He was only three or four years old, wrapped in a thick quilt, foaming at the mouth, and convulsing all over. He couldn't help but want to pull the quilt off the child.
Zhu Qilin was quicker than her. He grabbed the child and quickly peeled off the blanket on him. He scolded him, "It's summer and the child is still running a fever. Why are you wrapping him up so thickly?"
The couple quickly replied: "The child kept complaining about being cold."
Zhu Qilin carried the child into the clinic, cursing, "The child has a fever, sensory dysfunction, and can't tell the difference between hot and cold.
He says he's cold, and you just wrap him up?
Did you know that this would kill him?"
Zhu Qilin was examining the child, and Xie Wan helped explain: "When a child has a fever, the main thing is to dissipate the heat. If the child is covered up, the heat cannot be dissipated and the child is prone to convulsions, which is quite dangerous."
The couple were terrified.
Zhu Qilin took out a set of needles from his briefcase, lit the alcohol lamp to disinfect them, and prepared to give the child an injection.
Suddenly he turned around and saw Xie Wan, and said to Xie Wan: "Toutianliang is the best way to treat Shixuan, Fengchi, Yongquan and Hegu."
Xie Wan took the big needle from Zhu Qilin's hand without hesitation and started inserting the needle.
