Chapter 1173 Attitude
Mrs. Yue, who had already turned around and was about to leave, froze again. She turned around and ran back. When she saw the child lying on the couch was a boy, she screamed "Ah!" and was about to burst into tears. Manbao immediately said, "The child is young and easily frightened. It's best not to make too much noise, so as not to scare the child away."
There is indeed such a saying. Old Mrs. Yue immediately blocked the remaining half of her utterance, covered her mouth, and tears fell down.
Doctor Tao twitched his lips, but his hands moved quickly. He quickly checked the child's condition and began to treat him, with Manbao helping him.
After a while, the child let out a weak cry and kicked his hands and feet gently.
Doctor Tao breathed a sigh of relief, wrapped the child gently, and said, "The child just held it in for a little too long. Fortunately, the underlying condition is not bad, and it will be fine after some rest."
Manbao breathed a sigh of relief.
Doctor Tao handed the child to Manbao and instructed, "Now that he's breathing, you should send him back to his mother. He'll be fine once he learns to drink milk, but you still need to pay more attention to him in the future."
Manbao agreed.
Old Madam Yue reached out to take the child, but Manbao dodged her hand, placed his finger lightly on his lips, and said with a hushed voice, "Old Madam, the child is fragile and can't stay outside for long. I'm sending him back to his mother."
Old Mrs. Yue: “But…”
Before she could finish, Manbao had already taken the baby back to the delivery room.
Fu Wenyun had also finished cleaning up. She still had needles stuck in her body and her face was still pale, but she looked a little better, at least the grayness on her face had faded a lot.
She closed her eyes slightly, and opened them when she heard the noise. Manbao held the child in her arms and showed it to her, whispering, "Look, Sister Fu, the child is so beautiful."
Nanny Fu then remembered to ask, "Miss Man, is this a boy or a girl?"
"boy."
Nanny Fu heaved a sigh of relief and patted her chest, saying, "It's really the blessing of the Lord Tianzun."
Fu Wenyun also reached out and gently touched the child's cheek, saying softly, "It's fine if it's a boy, but it would be too much of a pain for a girl."
Manbao felt a little sad after hearing this, but she didn't say anything. She looked at the time and felt that the time was up, so she reached out and pulled out the needle from her body.
Manbao wrote a prescription for Fu Wenyun and whispered to Qiuyue, "Take this medicine for the next two days. I'll come back to see you and change the medicine then."
Mother and child were safe, and the tension in the Yue family dissipated. Old Madam Yue supported the maid's hand and entered the delivery room. Nanny Fu, who had just been arguing with her, bowed and stepped aside. Old Madam Yue patted her hand and comforted her, saying, "I know you are doing this for your wife. You are a loyal servant. When your wife is better, I will ask her to reward you."
He sat down beside Fu Wenyun's bed again, took her hand and sighed, "As long as mother and child are safe, as long as mother and child are safe, otherwise I don't know how to explain to Dalang."
Fu Wenyun closed her eyes, breathed lightly, and did not respond.
Old Mrs. Yue couldn't help but look at Manbao beside her.
Manbao was packing up his medicine box. When he saw her looking over, he said, "Second Sister Fu is too tired. She's fallen asleep now. It's good for her to sleep. She'll recover faster."
Old Madam Yue smiled and nodded, saying, "That's good, that's good."
She looked at Manbao carefully and asked with a smile, "Doctor, do you know my daughter-in-law?"
Manbao glanced at her and said, "I'm from Luojiang County. When I was little, I played very well with Second Sister Fu. I also knew County Magistrate Fu. Oh, and you're Sima Fu now, right?"
"That's right," Nanny Fu smiled lightly and said, "When we went to the capital, the master and the mistress had just sent a letter to tell me that the master had been promoted to Sima. Unfortunately, my family was preparing to go to the capital, so I didn't have time to go back to celebrate."
Old Mrs. Yue's body stiffened and she stood up to send Manbao out.
Manbao glanced at Qiuyue and Nanny Fu, and didn't want to stay any longer. Anyway, she had given them all the instructions she needed to, so she took the medicine box and went out.
Old Madam Yue walked her to the courtyard, sighing all the way, "This is how it is when a woman gives birth. She's halfway through life. I wonder how many people in this world can't make it. Today, I'm really grateful to the young doctor..."
Bai Shan was sitting in the yard. When she saw Manbao come out, she stood up and looked at her.
Manbao glanced around the yard and curiously interrupted Old Lady Yue, "Old Lady, where is your son, my second brother-in-law?"
Old Madam Yue sighed and said, "He's gone to school. We just found a college in the capital. We don't want to delay his future."
Manbao didn't say anything. Bai Shan couldn't help but feel speechless. He stepped forward and took the medicine box from Manbao and said, "Shall we go home?"
Manbao looked at Old Lady Yue, who immediately smiled and said, "I'll have someone send the young doctor out."
Manbao raised her eyebrows high. Before she could say anything, Nanny Fu came out of the room with two purses and stuffed them into Manbao's hands, saying, "Miss Man, today is really thanks to you and Doctor Tao. This is for your and Doctor Tao's medical expenses."
Manbao could feel that the two purses were the same weight. She smiled and said, "I'll pass it on to Doctor Tao on behalf of Second Sister Fu. Doctor Tao has indeed been exhausted today. I won't be needed here. Let Second Sister Fu have a good rest. I'll visit her tomorrow."
Nanny Fu didn't even try to refuse and directly took back a purse, "Yes, I will escort Miss Man out."
Manbao glanced at Old Madam Yue and suddenly smiled, "Okay, you have to apologize to Doctor Tao later. In the whole capital, besides the imperial physicians, Doctor Tao is one of the top three pediatric doctors. The child's condition is not very good, and we will need to see a doctor many times in the future."
Nanny Fu nodded repeatedly.
Old Madam Yue's face changed, and she immediately turned to the nanny beside her and said, "Hurry up and get a red envelope. I just bumped into Doctor Tao, and I need to apologize to him..."
In the end, Doctor Tao and Manbao were respectfully escorted out of the door by Old Lady Yue's people. The people watching the excitement outside the Yue family's door immediately retreated far away, but did not leave yet.
Old Lady Yue probably realized the importance of Dr. Tao, and finally asked to send a carriage to send Dr. Tao back.
Although Doctor Tao is cautious, he does not act like a grandson in front of everyone. The Yue family does not hold that much weight in his eyes.
So he didn't care that the Yue family's servants hadn't left. He shook his head at Manbao and said, "Today I've almost lost my life. Fortunately, Young Master Bai was able to control the situation, otherwise I would have had them knocked down."
Manbao said with a smile: "Second Sister Fu is very polite and sensible. When she gets better, I will ask her to offer you tea and apologize."
"Never mind, never mind. I'll just drink your cup of tea. But this time we're here to get the medicine for the disease..."
Manbao smiled and said, "I'll ask Jishitang to write a detailed list and send it over so the Yue family can settle the bill."
Aunt Fu beside her nodded immediately, "Yes, yes, we'll pay the bill. It's our turn to pay."
See you at 8pm
