Chapter 162 Don't make any big moves
Du Ruoxia blushed instantly, realizing that she had been narrow-minded in this matter.
But it doesn't matter. She had planned to visit him after dinner to personally check on his wife's breast problems and examine her wounds to see how she was recovering.
This was something Du Ruoxia had already decided after Liu Zhengwei left.
Fortunately, she chose to believe in his character and did not have any malicious speculation about him, which is a good thing for her conscience.
"May I open this red envelope and take a look?"
"Sure, you can take it apart if you want."
Du Ruoxia said that this was her first time delivering a baby, and as long as the other party's intentions were good, it didn't matter how much of a red envelope they gave.
Yang Zeyan took out five 100-yuan bills from the red envelope.
"Liu Zhengwei is quite something, he actually came up with so much money all at once!"
Yang Zeyan had also served as a company commander before, so he knew the monthly income of the older employees.
This 500 yuan is equivalent to two months' salary for Liu Zhengwei.
Du Ruoxia was also somewhat surprised. Seeing how thin the red envelope was, she thought it contained at most a hundred or two hundred yuan.
I didn't think much about it at the time and just accepted it.
In modern society, a cesarean section plus subsequent hospitalization would cost around 10,000 yuan.
Liu Zhengwei gave her 500 yuan at once, which shows how much he values his wife and children.
"This is far too much money. I'll return a few hundred yuan to you later."
Having gained recognition for her medical skills and saved three lives, and knowing that the recipients were grateful, Du Ruoxia was unwilling to charge too much for the surgery.
"No need. You didn't ask him for any money. It's all from his heart. If you really feel bad about it, just get some tonics for his wife. Isn't that much better than giving him money?"
Yang Zeyan, as expected of a chief of staff, is indeed as shrewd as a shrewd person.
He summed everything up in one sentence, and Du Ruoxia also felt that this was very appropriate.
"Okay, I'll prepare some medicine and send it over in a bit."
"I'll go with you."
Liu Zhengwei was one of his soldiers. It was normal for him, as a leader, to go and visit his wife after she gave birth.
After the meal, Yang Zeyan was in charge of cleaning up the dishes, while Du Ruoxia carefully prepared medicine for Liu Zhengwei's wife.
The two of them each did their own job, and after they finished, they went out together.
The lights were dim at night, and Yang Zeyan gently led Du Ruoxia upstairs.
Du Ruoxia followed behind him, letting him lead her to Liu Zhengwei's door.
The sound of a baby crying came from inside the house. After Yang Zeyan knocked on the door, someone quickly came to open it.
Liu Zhengwei stood at the door holding a baby.
They were still somewhat incredulous when Yang Zeyan and Du Ruoxia came to their door in person.
"Chief of Staff, Sister-in-law, what brings you here? Please come in, the house is a bit messy."
Liu Zhengwei went on a mission out of town a few days ago and hasn't been able to take good care of things at home.
It was thanks to his mother coming from his hometown that he was able to take good care of the two children.
Du Ruoxia glanced at the child in Liu Zhengwei's arms. It was the first child born, and it looked a bit bigger after a few days.
Newborn babies have a lot of vernix caseosa on their bodies, and their little faces are red and wrinkled.
Now that the vernix caseosa has been washed off, the skin on my face has become much smoother, and I look much better than when I was born.
The house is indeed very messy. An extra bed has been set up in the living room, and there are two buckets full of the child's clothes and diapers.
Raising one child is difficult enough, but they had twins, making it even more difficult.
Looking at the filthy, messy room where there was nowhere to step, Liu Zhengwei was immediately embarrassed and his face turned bright red.
"Chief of Staff, Sister-in-law, I didn't know you would come so suddenly. I didn't have time to tidy up the house."
Liu Zhengwei scratched the back of his head sheepishly. Yang Zeyan was his boss and his idol. It was as if he had been caught red-handed about the mess in his house, and he felt very embarrassed.
"It's alright, we've just come to check on the mother and baby and will be leaving soon."
Yang Zeyan found a chair and sat down. He took the child from Liu Zhengwei's arms and held him carefully in his hands.
The child was small and soft, and he was somewhat at a loss.
His arms were stiff, and he didn't know where to put his fingers.
He's a rough, unrefined man, good for marching and fighting, and also good for going out on missions, but asking him to carry a child is really a bit of a challenge.
Du Ruoxia watched Yang Zeyan's clumsy appearance with a smile, while even Liu Zhengwei stood to the side looking nervous.
Although he didn't say anything, he practically kept saying, "Staff Officer Yang, be careful not to drop my precious daughter."
"I'll go in and check on the woman in labor."
Du Ruoxia sat with him for a while, then got up and spoke to Liu Zhengwei.
Liu Zhengwei nodded repeatedly. Du Ruoxia's medical skills were superb, and it was most appropriate for her to go and see his wife.
It would be even better if I could see if my wife had enough milk.
Liu Zhengwei's eyes held a hint of anticipation, but he didn't dare to trouble her too much.
Liu Zhengwei's wife was lying on the bed holding her child when she saw Du Ruoxia come in and immediately sat up excitedly.
She moved too quickly and accidentally aggravated the wound on her abdomen, causing her to wince in pain.
"Dr. Du, I've heard about what happened. Thank you for saving my life."
Du Ruoxia quickly stepped forward to support her, saying, "Your wound hasn't healed yet, so you can't make any big movements."
Du Ruoxia helped the person back to bed, and her hand naturally touched the person's pulse.
Her heartbeat was steady but not strong, indicating that although her body had recovered somewhat, she was still a little weak.
Most women who have given birth are in this situation; her condition was critical, and she was practically snatched back from the jaws of death.
Her body was originally weak, so her recovery to this state shows that she received meticulous care after childbirth.
"I heard you still don't have breast milk?"
There were only women and children in the room, so the situation wasn't particularly awkward.
Cui Limei nodded shyly. After all, it was her first time being a mother, and she still felt shy talking about this kind of issue with others.
"Let me take a look at it for you?"
"This... can even cure this, Dr. Du?"
Cui Limei was somewhat surprised, but out of trust in her, she took the initiative to lift her clothes.
She quickly put the clothes down again, pointed to the doorway, and said...
"Please lock the door from the inside, Dr. Du. It wouldn't be good if someone came in during the night."
"Don't worry, I locked the door when I came in."
Du Ruoxia smiled gently, and Cui Limei then lifted her clothes again to let her check.
Du Ruoxia put away her smile and carefully examined her. After a while, she spoke with a serious expression.
"You have blocked milk ducts, which is accompanied by inflammation, which is why you don't have any milk."
"What should we do then?"
"Your condition is not serious yet. As long as you cooperate with the treatment, you will get better soon. If you do not plan to get treatment, breast duct blockage can easily form cysts, and you will be more likely to get breast cancer than the average person."
Du Ruoxia's words were not alarmist; they were based on explanations found in medical books.
Perhaps Du Ruoxia's words were too frightening, because Cui Limei was so surprised that she couldn't come to her senses for a long time.
Her face was pale, and she held Du Ruoxia's hand with a worried expression.
"I'll give you acupuncture first, then a massage, and then I'll prescribe some medicine to help you recover."
