Chapter 118 Save the baby, I want to study medicine 1
"How could I have hurt her intentionally? She had an affair and gave birth to a bastard. As her mother-in-law, why can't I beat her?" The old woman said angrily with her eyes wide open.
Yu Banxia frowned and looked at the woman who was holding her child and coaxing him while he was crying.
"You keep saying that she cheated on me and disregarded her reputation. What evidence do you have?"
"Humph, what evidence do you need? My son is such a dark-skinned man, and she gave birth to a fair and tender boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes. If she is not cheating on me, what is she?"
The old woman snorted coldly.
Yu Banxia looked at the woman, then at the old woman, and was really speechless.
"Do you want to listen to the nonsense you are saying? Your son is ugly, and now the child doesn't look like his father. Isn't that a good thing?"
"Which child doesn't look like his father? If he doesn't look like his father, is he still my child?" The old woman had her own reasons.
Yu Banxia was completely speechless, and the onlookers were pointing and talking.
"Mom, please stop making trouble. I believe Yuanniang will not do anything to betray me." A dark man squeezed in.
But the old woman glared at him and told him not to worry about it, saying that she would make the little bitch tell her who the adulterer was today.
"Everyone, please pay attention. Although this brother looks dark, he has big double eyelids and a high nose bridge."
"Look at that sister-in-law, she also has willow-shaped eyebrows, big eyes, a straight nose, a cherry mouth and an oval face."
"The couple is a handsome man and a beautiful woman, so why can't they have a good-looking child? What kind of perverse logic is this?"
Yu Banxia got off the carriage, came to the woman, glanced at the baby in the cradle, and then looked at the man.
"This child has a mole on the bridge of his nose, which is in almost the same position as this elder brother's. He also looks very similar. How come he is not his child?"
"You have a big prejudice against your daughter-in-law, so you want to deliberately slander and kill her?"
The old woman was also shocked when she heard Yu Banxia's words.
"Why would I want to kill her?"
"You, don't talk nonsense, I am, I am..."
"You don't even have the confidence to speak." Yu Banxia also mocked.
The old woman continued, "She has only been married for less than nine months. Even if she got pregnant in the bridal chamber, the child would only be seven months old. How could she give birth so quickly?"
"This baby looks like a full-term baby."
"Then you might be blind." Yu Banxia's face turned completely cold. How could this old woman be so vicious and want to kill someone?
Yu Banxia pointed at the child and said, "This child was obviously born prematurely and has insufficient lung energy. Will he often have shortness of breath?"
The woman looked up immediately and nodded with tears in her eyes: "Yes, yes, girl, my child has the symptoms you described, and sometimes his face turns red, as if he can't breathe."
"He was born prematurely and has not fully developed. He may have other problems. As parents and elders, you don't want to ask a doctor to check the child, but instead make up some unfounded things to slander your daughter-in-law. If you are not vicious, who is vicious?"
Yu Banxia’s words frightened the old woman.
She walked forward to take a closer look, then looked at her son and daughter-in-law. The more she looked, the more she felt that the woman looked a bit like her son or daughter-in-law.
"What have I done?" The old woman suddenly sat down on the ground, threw the mallet on the ground, and slapped her thigh and cried.
The child was frightened and started crying again, then he began to gasp for breath.
Yu Banxia sighed and said, "Hurry up and bring the child with me to the carriage. If we don't treat the child, his life may be in danger."
After hearing Yu Banxia's words, the woman, the old woman, and the woman's husband all panicked.
"Follow me!" Erniu shouted anxiously.
The woman reacted and hurriedly followed Yu Banxia carefully into the carriage. Seeing how luxurious the interior of the carriage was, she didn't dare to breathe.
"Give me the child." Yu Banxia took the child and placed him on a soft blanket.
He opened the swaddling clothes, took out a silver needle and gave him acupuncture.
After the acupuncture, the child's breathing calmed down, and he clenched his fists and fell into a sound sleep.
Yu Banxia took out another small Huiyuan Pill, divided it into four parts, and put one of them into the child's mouth.
"The rest is for you. Feed him one portion a day. He's fine now. When he finishes all four portions, remember to see a doctor."
The woman took a look at the pill and did not take it. Instead, she knelt down and kowtowed three times respectfully. Then she cried and said, "Thank you for saving my life, young lady."
"Thank you for speaking up for me, otherwise I would be in great danger today."
"This was made for me by my mother when I got married. I know it's not enough to pay for the medical expenses, but it's the most expensive thing I can give."
The woman took off a silver hairpin from her head, held it in both hands and gave it to Yu Banxia.
Yu Banxia looked at her, took it from behind, bent down and put it back into her hair: "I never help people for any reward, it's all fate. If there wasn't a shop on the next street unloading goods, we wouldn't have walked to this street."
"Everything has its own destiny. I don't ask for anything else. Do more good deeds in the future as a reward for what I did today."
The woman looked at Yu Banxia and tears fell again: "Thank you, young lady."
As she said this, she kowtowed again.
The Miaoyue sisters were also deeply shocked.
Miaoyue was even more determined to learn medical skills from Yu Banxia and save lives.
"Get up quickly, carry your child and go down. I have one last word for you."
"Women can also hold up the sky. If a husband does nothing to support a family and cannot provide his wife with enough food and warm clothes, it is better for him and his in-laws not to have him."
The sound was quite loud and the man and the old woman waiting outside heard it.
The old woman felt deeply guilty. She shouldn't have listened to what others said and chased and beat her daughter-in-law in public.
"Yuan Niang, it's all my fault. I listened to the instigation of others and almost did something wrong. I will never do it again in the future. Please forgive me this time."
"From now on, I will stand by you in everything and will no longer listen to other people's instigation."
The woman held the child, looked at the old woman, then looked at her husband, said nothing, and went straight home.
The reason she was able to escape was because of her husband's help, so she did not resent her husband.
As for the mother-in-law, let's wait and see. If she can't do what she says, let's separate the family and live separately!
The woman turned around again and saw Yu Banxia looking at her encouragingly. She bowed again in gratitude.
Yu Banxia smiled and lowered the gauze curtain.
"Sister Xia, I want to study medicine with you. Do you think I have talent?" Miao Yue mustered up the courage and asked Yu Banxia.
Yu Banxia looked at her and asked, "Why do you want to study medicine?"
"I want to be like my sister, curing illnesses and saving lives without asking for anything in return, only to have a clear conscience." Miaoyue replied seriously.
"You are the daughter of an official, why do you do such a hard thing?" Yu Banxia asked again.
