Chapter 136: My sister-in-law almost died
Xie Yanyan immediately sat up and released his mental power.
Diagonally opposite the inn is the clinic.
The person knocking on the door obviously had something extremely urgent. He knocked politely at first, then he knocked hard and impatiently, and finally, he kicked the door of the clinic off.
The doctor was called out from the backyard and a fierce conflict broke out between the two sides.
All the yamen runners in the city were called in, and the man who kicked the door was arrested by the yamen runners at knifepoint and dragged to the prison.
The man said earnestly: "It was wrong of me to kick the door. I am willing to accept the punishment. Please save my wife and children. If you don't save them, they will die!"
"Is there anyone begging for help like you? Are you robbing someone or trying to kill someone?"
"Please, sir, help my wife and children..."
The doctor said angrily: "Your wife's fetus is in an abnormal position. I have to use a secret method. I won't see you for less than 20 taels of silver."
The man who came with the man said with a smile: "Dr., please be kind. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. What's more, these are two lives..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a cold voice: "This is the token of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Yongxing City Government Office, listen up and treat the patient immediately."
The man was wearing a dark green raincoat with a large brim. His face was cold and expressionless, with a sense of impatience and boredom.
The Yongxing City yamen runners looked at the token carefully and found that it was indeed the token of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Former Qin.
Seeing the token is like seeing the prince.
The man who was held captive turned around, extremely surprised, and choked up and called out, "Sister..."
It was Xie Ning.
Liu Mingjie said in surprise: "Miss Xie, when did you come back?"
Xie Yanyan didn't bother to say anything, and just asked: "Where is my sister-in-law?"
Xie Ning said that in another inn, Song Lingling had been in pain for a day and a night. The doctor said that Song Lingling's fetus was in an abnormal position, and if he wanted to treat her, he would not pay less than 20 taels of silver.
All the silver was robbed, and Xie Ning could not afford it, so he promised to return it double when he had the money. The doctor said that he had seen many people like this, and that if the person had no money, he shouldn't be treated.
Xie Ning got anxious and kicked the door of the clinic.
Xie Yanyan asked the yamen runner of Yongxing City: "Is this the best doctor in the city?"
The bailiff shook his head and said that Doctor Chen in East Street was the best gynecologist. The couple worked together, one prescribing medicine and the other delivering babies, and they had saved countless children's lives.
"Brother, drive the carriage for me and go invite Doctor Chen and his wife."
The yamen runner's attitude changed drastically and he led the way enthusiastically, even more enthusiastic than Xie Ning.
Doctor Chen’s shop was indeed a bit remote, but the city was not big nowadays, and they had a horse-drawn carriage, so they would arrive quickly.
A bailiff from the city knocked on the door, and Doctor Chen and his wife quickly opened it.
When they heard that a woman was having difficulty giving birth, the couple immediately prepared a medicine box and a complete set of delivery tools.
Xie Yanyan asked them to get on the carriage. When the doctor saw that it was a two-wheeled carriage, he knew that the man was no ordinary person.
Xie Ning was driving while answering the doctor's questions about the patient's condition. When they arrived at the inn, Xie Yanyan saw Song Lingling, whose face was sallow.
They lived in a large dormitory bed, and because Song Lingling was about to give birth, everyone made a large space for her.
Or it is taboo, stay away from the smell of blood.
The little kid lay beside Song Lingling's head, crying sadly: "Mother, mother..."
Su Moqing's wife was taking care of Song Lingling. She was wiping Song Lingling's sweat with a cloth. When she saw Xie Yanyan coming back, she didn't bother to talk and asked Xie Ning, "Did you invite the doctor?"
"I'm here." Xie Yanyan replied. She squatted down, grabbed Song Lingling's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm back."
Song Lingling's face was covered in sweat. She had lost a lot of weight and was deformed due to the pain.
She tightly grasped the edge of the mat and tried to force a smile: "Sister, sister is back?"
"Don't be afraid!" Xie Yanyan's two cold words made Song Lingling feel at ease instantly and tears flowed. If her sister-in-law came back, she and her child would be saved.
"Aunt, Aunt... wow..." The little boy hadn't seen his aunt for two months. All the panic and grievances in his heart poured out, and he cried breathlessly.
Madam Su hugged him and also shed tears: "Good boy, don't cry, your mother is fine, she will give birth to a little brother for you!"
"I don't want a little brother, I want my mother." The little boy cried and got into Xie Yanyan's arms.
"Aunt, I want my mother."
Xie Yanyan picked him up, patted his back, and said, "Don't be afraid."
Doctor Chen and his wife examined Song Lingling's condition separately.
Doctor Chen's face was very serious: "Foot position! Hurry up and prepare a clean place."
Madam Chen said, "I want to correct the fetal position for this lady."
The shopkeeper was right next to them. He originally wanted to kick Song Lingling out, for he was afraid that if she died in his shop, it would bring bad luck and customers would dare not come in the future.
Seeing Xie Yanyan holding up the prince's token, he said reluctantly: "There is still a triple room."
"I want the best room." Xie Yanyan handed him two ingots of silver, "Cooperate with Doctor Chen and Madam Chen, give them whatever they need, and the money will be charged separately."
The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly brightened. My goodness, he offered 100 taels of silver! The best room here only costs 1 tael of silver per night.
He ran faster than a rabbit and went up to the house to get everything ready immediately: boiled hot water and cooked millet porridge.
He said to the waiter, "Don't judge a person by appearance. That little girl is the best here. If we take good care of her, we will definitely benefit from it."
Xie Yanyan didn't know what he could do and was driven out by Madam Chen.
Doctor Chen was writing a prescription outside and asked Xie Ning to go to his shop to get the medicine.
Then he said to Xie Yanyan: "The mother is weak and giving birth is very tiring. You'd better prepare some food for her."
"Food?" Jiang Shuang asked.
Only then did Xie Yanyan notice that his mother was beside him.
Doctor Chen said: "She is in great pain now, and may not be able to eat. It would be better if she could take some ginseng slices."
Xie Yanyan asked: "Are old ginseng and wild ginseng okay?"
Doctor Chen looked at her in surprise and nodded: "Well, the older the better."
While Xie Yanyan was reaching into her bag, she called out to Xiaomei in her heart, "Xiaomei, exchange it for a 10,000-year-old ginseng."
[There is no 10,000-year-old ginseng, but 300-year-old ginseng can be exchanged]
"Where's the thousand-year-old ginseng?"
[There is no thousand-year-old ginseng, but three hundred-year-old ginseng can be exchanged]
Xie Yanyan: Trash!
Isn’t it said that thousand-year-old ginseng can prolong life?
[Ten thousand year old ginseng and thousand year old ginseng are just legends...Do you want to exchange them? Please confirm.]
"Exchange, help me cut it into slices."
[Exchange successful, one 380-year-old wild ginseng]
A box full of ginseng slices was taken out of the bag, followed by a large box of chocolates.
Chocolate is the best way to replenish energy.
Xie Yanyan went in to deliver something, and Madam Chen frowned and said, "Don't come to the delivery room all the time, just wait outside."
"I'll give my sister-in-law some ginseng slices and sugar."
Xie Yanyan handed the chocolate and ginseng box to Song Lingling: "Sister-in-law, this is the candy I made myself. Eating it can give you strength. This is the ginseng slice. You can hold it in your mouth or eat it."
"Sister, I'm... fine. Don't be afraid. Just wait outside."
Even though she was in so much pain that her teeth had bitten her lips, her face was deformed, and her knuckles had turned white from gripping the edge of the bed, she still didn't utter a word, for fear of frightening her husband, her brothers-in-law, her sister-in-law, and her young son.
Xie Yanyan didn't know how painful it was to give birth to a child, so she felt a little uncomfortable at the moment.
Sister-in-law, should everything be okay?
