After dinner, Tian Tian left the task of washing dishes to Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo, went into the house, changed her clothes, and went to the hospital with Tian Lisong.
Tian Shengshu also wanted to go, but he was indeed a little young now, and no one would take care of him in the county town, so Tian Lisong refused.
Tian Shengshu went back home very disappointed.
Tian Lisong was riding a bicycle, and Tian Tian was sitting on the back seat holding a lunch box filled with chicken soup.
The road was very bumpy. Tian Tian had to take care of the chicken soup while feeling sorry for her butt which was broken into eight pieces.
After finally arriving at the hospital, Tian Tian quickly jumped off the bicycle and said, "I'll go in and ask where Sister Lili is, and then I'll wait for you to come in."
After saying that, Tian Tian ran to find a nurse to ask Tian Lili. Fortunately, everyone still had a deep impression of the pregnant woman who came into the hospital in the middle of the night last night, and soon someone told Tian Tian where Tian Lili lived.
After Tian Lisong locked the car and came in, Tian Tian went to the ward with Tian Lisong to find Tian Lili. Before entering the ward, Tian Tian heard screams.
She was suddenly frightened.
Tian Tian went into the house holding the chicken soup. Tian Lisong did not go in because he was afraid it would be inconvenient. He stood at the door and asked Tian Tian to call Old Mrs. Tian out.
When Tian Tian entered the room, she saw Tian Lili wailing on the bed with a big belly. The second aunt was holding Tian Lili's hand and comforting her.
"Second Auntie! Milk! Big milk!" Tian Tian called them.
"Why are you here?" Old Mrs. Tian was dozing off on the ground nearby. When she heard Tian Tian's voice, she was startled and looked up to see her. She quickly stood up and limped out with Tian Tian in her arms.
Tian Tian only had time to pass the chicken soup in her hand to the second aunt before she was dragged out by Old Lady Tian.
"I'm here to bring chicken soup to Sister Lili, and then bring you food, and by the way, come and see how Sister Lili is doing!" Tian Tian said.
Old Mrs. Tian was just about to teach Tian Tian a lesson when she saw Tian Lisong standing at the door.
"Mom! I'm bringing you food! You and my aunt won't go hungry." Seeing that Old Mrs. Tian's eyebrows were about to rise, Tian Lisong quickly handed the cornmeal cake wrapped in cloth in her hand to Old Mrs. Tian.
Old Mrs. Tian took the cornmeal pancake, but she was still angry. "You can come here by yourself. Why bring Tiantian here? The blood flow during childbirth is so scary! What if Tiantian gets scared?"
After listening to this, Tian Lisong realized that he had not thought too much about it, but he really didn't think too much about it at the time. Tian Tian said she wanted to come over, so he brought Tian Tian over.
It's a little better in the hospital, as everyone gives birth in the delivery room. But at home, you have to set up a room yourself to give birth, and all the blood and water are taken out and dumped in the yard. Sometimes people just send the children out to play, and the blood and the screams scare the children, so they have to wait until everything is cleaned up before calling them back.
Things happened so suddenly last night that Old Mrs. Tian forgot to tell her family a few words, and as a result, Tian Tian followed her without noticing.
"Grandma! It's okay. I'm old enough to be scared easily. Hasn't Sister Lili given birth yet? Didn't they say the fetus is in an abnormal position? Doesn't that mean she needs to have a caesarean section immediately?" Tian Tian asked.
Old Mrs. Tian felt a headache when this matter was mentioned. It was true that a caesarean section had to be performed quickly, but the problem was that there were no doctors in the hospital. The new batch of doctors were all college students who had graduated from the worker-peasant-soldier program and were usually quite capable of prescribing medicine, but they became helpless when it came to actually doing the job.
The nurses didn't know how to perform a caesarean section, so they could only let Tian Lili lie in the ward and prescribe a few bottles of glucose for her.
Old Mrs. Tian thought that this was not the case. If you keep delaying, the baby will not be able to come out even if the cervix is dilated. What if the amniotic fluid flows into the belly, the baby will die in the stomach.
She thought that there should be some experienced doctors who could deliver babies among those who were sent down, so she quickly asked the second uncle to go out and find those doctors.
Old Mrs. Tian didn't care about his class background anymore. The important thing was to save his life.
When Tian Tian heard this, she didn't expect that Tian Lili's childbirth would be so bumpy. She listened to Tian Lili's suppressed cries of pain from time to time, and she felt a little impatient. "It's said that some people can massage. When the baby is in the belly, if the fetal position is not right, they will turn the baby around so that its head is facing down. Milk, don't you know there are such people?"
Old Lady Tian gave Tian Tian a speechless look and said, "Where did you hear this? Anyway, I have never heard of such a person at my age."
She had heard of reaching in and turning the baby around, but that sounded too painful. Besides, that was when the baby already had one leg, and then they would put the leg in and then turn the baby.
"Then can my second uncle find a doctor?" To be honest, the frequency of their brigade sending people down is not very high. Among the ten brigades around the county, there may be only one brigade that has people sent down. For example, from the fourth to the ninth teams that are relatively close to Tian Tian's brigade, it seems that only their brigade has people like Gu Xingshu sent down.
Mrs. Tian was also very worried after hearing this. "If it really doesn't work, we can only let the doctors do it."
We can't just watch Tian Lili and the others wait here.
"If all else fails, I'll ride my bike to the surrounding brigades to ask! Or I can go directly to the commune secretary to ask if there is a doctor." Tian Lisong said.
He could walk faster on a bicycle, and he had been dealing with brigade cadres for many years, so he knew how to talk to them when he encountered such things.
The second uncle is usually taciturn, a hardworking old man who only knows how to work.
As the three were talking, Tian Lili's screams suddenly became louder inside the house, followed by the sound of something being knocked over.
This time, no one cared about anything else and rushed in to see that the chicken soup that Tian Tian brought was spilled all over the floor.
Li Dahua, who was dozing off on the ground, was so scared that she jumped up. Second Aunt was lifting the quilt to check on Tian Lili's condition.
It would not matter if she did not check. Once she checked, the second aunt turned around and shouted anxiously, "Lili's ten fingers are open! We can't wait any longer, we have to deliver her baby quickly!"
The second uncle still doesn’t know when he can bring people back, so now he still has to rely on these half-baked doctors and nurses in the hospital.
Soon someone came and pushed Tian Lili away. Old Mrs. Tian, Li Dahua, and the second aunt all followed the nurse to the outside of the delivery room, even Tian Tian followed.
