Chapter 226 Good Doctor
"Doctor, is there something wrong with my sister's body?" Zhang Yunniang asked.
Doctor Yan frowned and scolded Liu Xiaoru.
"Your sister recovered well after giving birth, but you failed miserably. Why don't you take care of your body?"
Liu Xiaoru was full of doubt and said, "Doctor, are you mistaken? I have never been pregnant before. If I was pregnant, I wouldn't have been scolded by my mother-in-law as a chicken that doesn't lay eggs."
Doctor Yan said, "I'm not wrong. Sometimes the baby is not kept even though the period is still young. It looks like the menstrual period. Think about it yourself. Is there any abnormality?"
He didn't make it too obvious.
But all the women present understood.
Zhang Yuniang and Old Lady Gu supported Liu Xiaoru and asked her questions in detail.
"Yes... There was one time when I just felt that my period was coming, the amount of blood was abnormally heavy, and my stomach was aching, but Wang Yaozu and his mother thought I was unlucky, and even drove me to live in the woodshed for a few days... Could it be that at that time... I-I was actually pregnant?"
Zhang Yunniang and Old Lady Gu are both women, and they can empathize more with the pain of a woman losing a child. When they saw Liu Xiaoru looking so sad and at a loss, they felt so distressed that they didn't know what to do.
"How come I don't understand anything... I always thought I was infertile, I never thought that the child would come..." Liu Xiaoru kept muttering.
Old Doctor Yan felt a little bit sorry for what he saw, but as a doctor, he had to continue asking questions if necessary.
"You didn't take care of your miscarriage, and you suffered a lot afterwards. Do you have a cold body and are afraid of cold? Are your hands and feet always cold? Is your lower abdomen always cold?"
Liu Xiaoru forced herself to calm down and answered the questions one by one.
Doctor Yan wrote her a prescription and said at the end, "Don't take it too seriously. Many women have never had children of their own and they can still live a prosperous life. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body."
Zhang Yunniang felt something was not right when she heard this and asked, "Doctor, can you explain clearly, will the previous miscarriage affect my sister's fate of having children?"
Doctor Yan nodded slightly.
"It's not easy for her to get pregnant. After all the hard work of getting pregnant, she couldn't keep the baby. This is naturally worse than ever. Now, all I can do is try my best to take care of her body. After all, the matter of having children depends on fate."
Zhang Yunniang's eyes widened slightly. She didn't expect this would be the result.
In the end, it was Liu Xiaoru who comforted her, saying, "Sister, I never thought of remarrying. Whether I have another child or not is not that important to me. I just feel sorry for my unborn child. I don't know whether it is a boy or a girl."
Zhang Yunniang, however, felt that it was impossible for it not to be important.
"It's all Wang Yao's grandmother's fault. They harmed your child! Don't take all the blame on yourself." Zhang Yunniang said.
Zhang Yunniang pulled Niu Niu over again and put her into Liu Xiaoru's arms.
Niuniu reached out her hand and gently patted Liu Xiaoru's chest, saying, "I'll help Aunt Liu beat the bad guys. Aunt Liu, don't cry. I will definitely be filial to you in the future."
Liu Xiaoru looked at Niu Niu's cute appearance and couldn't help wondering, is that child as well-behaved and cute as Niu Niu?
Thinking of this, her tears burst out, as if she could no longer hold them back, and she hugged Niuniu and cried.
I don’t know how much time passed.
After Doctor Yan finished examining all the other members of the Gu family, only Old Man Gu was left.
Old Man Gu had a confused look in his eyes, but he was still obedient. After Old Lady Gu said a few words, he obediently stretched out his hand.
"Doctor, my old man is sick and confused. Can you wake him up?" asked Old Mrs. Gu.
Doctor Yan did not answer immediately.
Old Lady Gu added, "Forget about the rest. I have a priceless winemaking recipe at home that only this old man knows."
Doctor Yan felt that this situation sounded familiar, so he asked, "You want him to be sober for a while, but he may not be sober soon. You still want him to accompany you in a confused state, but he may not be able to remember the winemaking recipe for the rest of his life."
Old Mrs. Gu was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Doctor Yan said, "Just tell me the recipe for making wine and then die."
Old Lady Gu waved her hands frantically and said, "No matter how good the winemaking recipe is, it can't compare to my old man's. Forget it, let him stay in this muddle."
Old Doctor Yan raised his eyebrows. He thought that the old events of the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion would reappear before his eyes.
"Can your old man still help with housework now?" asked Doctor Yan.
Old Mrs. Gu thought for a moment and said, "He helps Niuniu raise a few chickens, but we don't expect him to do the rest. My son and daughter-in-law are very filial, and they even hired someone to serve me and the old man."
Doctor Yan looked at Old Lady Gu with some envy, and then said, "You have to think it over carefully. There are different treatments for confusion and for clarity."
The old lady didn't hesitate at all: "We want to be confused! I want the old man to live a hundred years!"
Doctor Yan nodded, picked up a pen and wrote a prescription.
The old lady was still worried and kept asking, "Is this really a stupid way to treat it? Don't make any mistake! My old man has already told me that we will be buried together!"
Doctor Yan was also very patient and nodded continuously: "Don't worry, it can't be wrong."
Only Liu Xiaoru and Old Man Gu in the Gu family received the prescription, and Doctor Yan only gave a few suggestions to the others.
In the afternoon, they sent Gu Yan to Baiyun Academy, paid the tuition for him, and bought the uniform bedding for the academy.
Gu Yan's clothes had been prepared long ago, so he didn't need to return to the city today and could just stay in Baiyun Academy.
Zhang Yunniang took her son aside and gave him some detailed instructions, and only then did the Gu family return home.
Doctor Yan looked at his own yard, which returned to calm after the Gu family left. He felt that he had repaid the favor he owed Niuniu, and he felt relieved.
But he did not sleep well that night.
He woke up from a nightmare and recalled what he saw in his dream: his grandson was tortured to the point of being weak in the academy. He was constantly insulted by him because of his poor academic performance. Finally, his grandson chose to jump off a stone.
When he closed his eyes, he could see his grandson's swollen body.
Doctor Yan was absolutely convinced that if Niu Niu had not said those few extra words during the day, he would definitely not have noticed anything unusual about his grandson, and all he brought to his grandson was scolding for being disappointed in his grandson.
Old Doctor Yan was terrified. The Jing'an Marquis's Mansion wanted to deal with it, and he had not repaid the favor he owed Niuniu.
He turned his attention back to Gu Zhao.
"Learning is like sailing against the current. If you don't move forward, you will fall behind. You are taking it too easy now. In the future, you will have to learn and recognize twice as many herbs every day."
No matter how Gu Zhao wailed, Doctor Yan still ruthlessly carried out this decision. Originally, he took in an apprentice just to have someone to help raise insects, but now he was more sincere to Gu Zhao.
He wanted to teach Gu Zhao to be a truly good doctor.
