While the nanny was cleaning the room, everyone was waiting outside the door.
The doctor had previously thought that Tian An was bragging and lying, but now that the child had been taken out and she was about to go in to see Madam Gu, it meant that both mother and child were safe as she had said.
But how could this be possible? He knew about Mrs. Gu's situation. But knowing that made it even more unbelievable.
"May I ask how you managed to resolve the difficult labor and keep Madam Gu and her child safe?" the doctor asked shamelessly.
Tian An did not hide it and said directly: "Cesarean section."
Mrs. Gu had a large scar left by the incision on her stomach, and she would need to take care of it later. It would require everyone's cooperation, and it would be impossible to hide it. It would be better to be honest from the beginning. After all, mother and child are safe now. It was just an incision, and she believed that the Gu family would accept it.
"Cesarean section? Cesarean section? Does it mean cutting open the belly to take the baby out?" The doctor asked tentatively with some disbelief.
Hearing the doctor's words, everyone else turned pale, except Zhao Yiming, who was fine. Years ago, when heavy snow collapsed the villagers' houses, he later learned that Tian An had sutured the wounds of several villagers with thread, and they had recovered well afterwards.
So now he didn't think there was anything wrong with cutting open her stomach. Tian An would definitely be able to sew her up anyway.
But he didn't think it was a big deal, others didn't have such a good ability to accept it.
Gu Jinyan's face was pale, and she asked in a trembling voice: "An, An An, it's not, he, he said that!"
Tian An stepped forward and patted her cold little hand, comforting her, "Don't worry, Jinyan! Although it was a caesarian section, the operation was very successful. Auntie is in good health and will recover quickly. It's just the scar on her stomach that will take some time to heal."
Gu Jinyan was comforted by Tian An. She didn't know whether to have a cesarean section or not. As long as her mother was fine, it was enough.
When County Magistrate Gu heard Tian An's personal confirmation, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. His stomach had been cut open, so was his wife really okay? He immediately looked at the closed door with even more anxiety.
The doctor was also quite frightened. As a colleague, he knew better than the layman what it meant to cut open a person's stomach.
The internal organs of the human body are very complex. Even the old doctors from medical families probably don’t dare to perform cesarean sections on people at will. How could this girl, who is so young, dare to do that?
But the facts proved that she not only dared, but also succeeded.
Then, the doctor thought of something else. "We didn't hear any noise outside the house just now! How did the girl do it?"
"That was not difficult. I gave Aunt Gu an acupuncture treatment. She was half asleep and half awake the whole time. She was conscious and felt no pain, so she gave birth to the baby easily."
The doctor was even more shocked. This girl could even give acupuncture? "Excuse me, young lady..."
The old doctor wanted to ask more, but unfortunately the nanny had already cleaned up the room and came out, "Master, Miss, everything is clean. You can go in and see the lady."
Tian An followed the Gu father and daughter into the room. Zhao Yiming was a stranger, so he waited outside.
The old doctor had no choice but to go in because a heavy curtain had been hung in the room. Mrs. Gu was fine now, so he could only wait outside.
I originally wanted to wait for Tian An to come out and see if I could ask more questions about caesarean sections, but unfortunately, Tian An didn't come, but the maid from the Gu family came.
Shiqin took the old doctor to the accounting office to get the silver, and reminded him both explicitly and covertly to keep his mouth shut about what happened in the mansion today. Finally, she personally escorted him out of the mansion.
When the Gu family father and daughter came in, Mrs. Gu had already woken up. After seeing Mrs. Gu's peace of mind, he finally put his mind at ease.
Magistrate Gu took Madam Gu's hand with pity and said with a sob, "Thank you for your hard work, Madam. Your wound must still hurt."
Mrs. Gu only found out later that Tian An had performed a caesarean section on her. Although she felt a little scared, she didn't feel any pain. "I didn't feel any pain when the baby was taken out, and I still don't feel anything in my stomach."
"No consciousness? An An, this is normal, right?" Gu Jinyan looked at Tian An and asked.
Tian An nodded and said, "It's normal. The acupuncture I gave Auntie hasn't worn off yet. Her lower body is numb right now. She will feel it again after the effect of the medicine wears off, but the wound may be a little painful by then."
"Ah? Then mother will suffer." Gu Jinyan said with concern.
Mrs. Gu was quite open-minded. "Giving birth is bound to be painful! I'm lucky to be alive. It's just a little pain, nothing serious. I can handle it."
"It's my fault that my wife has suffered so much." Magistrate Gu blamed himself. Then he asked Tian An, "Girl, is there any way to relieve the pain?"
Tian An smiled and said, "Of course, how could I let my aunt suffer!
The anesthetic effect of the acupuncture will probably wear off by midnight. If Auntie can't stand it by then, please send someone to call me. I'll come over and give you another acupuncture. It will last for four hours, and the pain will go away in four or five days at most. But I have to be so shameless to bother you for the next few days."
Hearing this, Gu Jinyan happily pulled Tian An and said, "Why bother you? We would love for you to stay and help take care of Mom. I'm sorry to bother you."
At this time, the nanny came in with a bowl of chicken soup and wanted to give it to Madam Gu. Tian An hurriedly stopped her and said, "I forgot to remind you that Auntie can't eat anything now, not even water."
The nanny couldn't understand: "Miss An An, is it okay for the Madam not to eat?"
County Magistrate Gu also said, "Yes! Girl, you can't just keep not giving her food! Madam is still in poor health!"
Tian An explained: "It's not that I'm not going to let her eat all the time. I'm going to let her pass gas before she eats. Otherwise, it would be harmful to her."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that he hadn't been eating. Gu Jinyan then asked, "What is gas?"
"Oh! It's just fart." Tian An answered casually. However, the expressions of the people present were somewhat indescribable.
Tian An: ...Okay! She was being vulgar! Forgive her for not being able to think of any elegant and easy-to-understand words to replace these two words.
Tian An took out two packets of lotus root powder from his bag and handed them to Mammy. While everyone was there, he went over all the precautions:
"After the gas is discharged, first make Aunt Gu a bowl of this lotus root powder every day. After two days, start eating cabbage porridge, and then gradually add meat to the porridge. After seven days, you can eat dry rice. While eating meat, you must also pay attention to the amount of vegetables and fruits, otherwise it will easily cause...
That’s all. If you have any questions, just ask me.”
The servants were very attentive and remembered every word Tian An said.
Everything that needed to be explained was explained clearly. County Magistrate Gu stayed in the house with Mrs. Gu, while Gu Jinyan and Tian An went out first.
Tian An was going to stay at Gu's house for a few days. He told Zhao Yiming first before following Gu Jinyan to her yard.
