Chapter 152: Going on Even if You Have to
Doctor Zhou didn't arrive very quickly.
After Cen Dajiang came back, he explained, "…When I went there, Doctor Zhou was not at home. He said he was treating someone else's illness. I went to that family again, and after Doctor Zhou finished treating the patient, I quickly sent him home. I told him about my second brother's wife's condition, and Doctor Zhou took the medicine box and rushed home."
"Doctor, please check on my poor sister-in-law. She just fell down accidentally and hit her stomach. She is crying because of the stomachache. Cen Yan is so ignorant that she said she had learned medicine and treated my sister-in-law on her own initiative. She said she was pregnant... How is this possible? Not to mention that Cen Yan is illiterate and it is impossible for her to have learned medicine. Just the fact that my sister-in-law has never had any morning sickness since she became pregnant means that it is impossible for her to be pregnant! Let's ask Doctor Zhou to come and diagnose her, so that this girl who is ignorant of the world and likes to make up lies can know what is right and wrong!" When Gao saw Doctor Zhou getting off the ox cart, she immediately went to him and told him the situation.
She said nothing about Lee's fall, saying that she was tripped by him maliciously.
Anyway, just keep pushing all the blame onto Cen Yan.
"That's right, Doctor Zhou. You have to take a good look at my second sister-in-law. Don't indulge Cen Yan's lies just to avoid working!" Yu also said.
Doctor Zhou had just got off the ox cart and hadn't even stood up yet when he heard two flies buzzing in his ears, giving him a headache.
Before he could say anything, Old Man Cen, who was watching the scene, had already turned pale.
"Why are you saying so much? Whether Li is pregnant or not, won't we know after Doctor Zhou takes a look? You two are the only ones who talk too much!" Seeing that Cen Shuang was about to go up and say bad things about the second wife, Old Man Cen finally couldn't help it and scolded Gao and Yu in front of Doctor Zhou.
When they saw that their father-in-law was angry, they both shrank their necks at the same time and dared not say a word.
The two of them simply forgot for a moment that Old Man Cen cared the most about the reputation of the Cen family.
Now the second branch is still a member of the old Cen family, so it also represents the old Cen family.
If they did something inappropriate, it means that it was the Cen family who was inappropriate and it was the Cen family members who were disgraced.
The two of them were so proud of themselves and eager to expose the second room's scheme that they forgot about the tea and were scolded.
Fortunately, Old Man Cen only said these two sentences to them and had no intention of punishing them, so he could be considered to have let the matter go lightly.
"Doctor Zhou, please take a look at my mother. She accidentally fell before and there are some signs of miscarriage." Only then did Cen Yan squeeze in front of Doctor Zhou and said to him.
"Okay, I'll go take a look right away." When Doctor Zhou saw Cen Yan, there was a hint of gentleness between his brows, and much of the irritability he had just felt was gone.
"Please." Cen Yan led the way.
Doctor Zhou nodded to Old Man Cen and followed Cen Yan to the second room.
Cen Dahai followed them into the house. He took a look at the people who had gathered in the yard and was about to close the door.
"Second brother, why are you closing the door?" When Gao saw this, she became anxious and hurried forward to stop him.
"The doctor needs quiet time to treat patients." Cen Dahai frowned and said coldly.
"We know that. We'll just watch from the side and keep silent!" Gao said as she tried to squeeze into the house.
However, Cen Dahai raised his arm and stood there motionless, not allowing Gao and others to move forward.
Gao and Yu immediately glared at each other.
"What do you mean? Are you guilty of something? Are you afraid to let us listen?"
"That's right! Why don't you let us in? Are you trying to bribe Doctor Zhou?"
"Just stand at the door, and no one can go any further." Cen Dahai glanced at them coldly and said only this.
"You..." Several people still wanted to argue.
"Sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, it's the same if you just stare at the door. Doctor Zhou is a famous doctor in the nearby village. He will definitely not talk nonsense and protect the second wife. I think he is trustworthy. Besides, even if the second wife wants to bribe Doctor Zhou, where will the money come from? Didn't the second wife's money all fall into the hands of eldest sister?" Cen Ying persuaded at this time. Her last sentence seemed to be directed at Cen Fang.
Upon hearing this, Cen Fang wanted to refute something, but she held back because she was concerned about something.
Gao and Yu thought what she said made sense, so they stopped fighting to go into the house.
Seeing that they had calmed down, Cen Dahai glanced at Cen Ying and said nothing more.
At this time, in the inner room of the second bedroom, beside Li's bed, Doctor Zhou placed the medicine box on the table beside him and sat down to diagnose Li.
After a moment, he stroked his beard.
"Doctor Zhou, how is it? Has my mother's condition stabilized?" Cen Yan asked nervously. Even though she had used Lingquan water to stabilize Li's signs of miscarriage, she was still a novice in this area and was afraid that she would make a mistake and harm Li.
"It's stable. But how did you do it? What Gao just said..." Doctor Zhou looked at her in confusion.
"After all, my grandfather is a well-known scholar. Although my family does not allow girls to read and write, it is not difficult for me to learn to read secretly if I want to." Cen Yan said.
Doctor Zhou thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.
After all, Old Man Cen is a scholar. Although he may not be very knowledgeable, it is still possible for his children to learn to read from him.
"What about your medical skills?" Doctor Zhou asked, "Your mother did have signs of miscarriage, but she is now stable."
"I learned it by myself. I asked someone to buy medical books in the county town. I read a lot of them. This time it was also an accident. For the sake of my mother and the baby in her belly, I went ahead and did it. I didn't expect it to work. But Doctor Zhou, I have to tell you the truth. I was unsure, and I thought that my grandparents might not be willing to pay for you to come, so I deliberately used some methods to get them to agree..." Cen Yan recounted the general situation of the bet.
Doctor Zhou was greatly surprised when he heard this.
The Cen family has always disliked the second branch. He has known this for a long time and has witnessed it with his own eyes.
It is really not easy for the people in the second house to survive!
If Cen Yan hadn't encountered this accident by mistake, Li's situation would have been really dangerous!
But soon, he suddenly thought of something.
"Child, tell me the truth. Are you doing this because you are worried that your mother will be pregnant and have to take care of the housework in the future?" Doctor Zhou said with a slight movement of his eyes.
"It's like this. Pregnancy is unstable in the first three months. Given the moral character of my family, they would not let my mother go even if she was pregnant...My mother fell today because she was tripped by my aunt. I'm afraid something will happen to my mother in the future. By then, I'm afraid it will be a tragedy with two dead bodies."
When Cen Yan said this, a hint of pain appeared between his brows.
She thought of her past life, when she was kicked away by Wei Zan, and died along with the child in her belly...
