Chapter 80 The Moon of Yesteryear
Xie Ning clenched her fists, but ultimately didn't lay a hand on him. She turned her head and handed the prescription in her hand to the younger man next to her. "Jin Chengcai, this is a prescription for inducing labor. Take it to the pharmacy to get the medicine. It would be best to invite the doctor there as well, and have him bring some medicine that may be needed for childbirth. If you have any experienced midwives, invite them as well."
Looking at the prescription handed to him, Jin Cheng was a little confused. "Why do we need to buy medicine? Didn't you hear from my mother that my family doesn't have that kind of money? Besides, childbirth is a woman's business. The doctors outside are all men. What would we do with them? Wouldn't that tarnish my wife's reputation? And isn't this what we have?"
He even spent money to hire other doctors and buy medicine. Does he think his money grows on trees? I've never heard of any other woman needing to hire a doctor before giving birth! And if he needs to take medicine, why doesn't he just take it?
Xie Ning took a deep breath, but still couldn't help but scold, "Having children is a woman's business, so what's the point of having you as a husband? No money? If you don't have money, go borrow it! Your wife is about to lose her life, and you still care about your so-called innocence?"
"that is!"
Ge Dani grabbed Jin Chengcai's collar and snorted coldly, "Don't be afraid, I'll lend you the money. If you don't pay it back, my fellow apprentices aren't pushovers either!" The root of the problem is right here, he can't escape.
He doesn't care about his own family's affairs and expects others to be kind enough to take care of them for him. He's dreaming!
"Hey, what's wrong with you, little girl? I told you my family has no money! Da Ni, let go! Your brother Cheng Cai isn't well, he can't take this kind of abuse." Cheng Cai's father finally spoke up when he saw his son being pulled, his words full of concern for Jin Cheng Cai. Ge Da Ni is so strong!
Xie Ning ignored them and turned to go inside. The room was still a mess. Old Mrs. Ge had also heard the commotion outside and said disapprovingly to Xie Ning, "Mr. Xie, we need a midwife, but we don't need a doctor. If we do, how will Cheng Cai's wife face people in the future?"
"Grandma, this is a matter of life and death, let's not talk about this anymore." Xie Ning didn't want to argue any further. She selected two women to stay and help, then said with a stern face, "Everyone else, get out!"
There's only so much space in the room, and so many people are crowding in. How many germs are they bringing with them?
Startled by Xie Ning's words, everyone quickly retreated. "Mr. Xie is usually so gentle, I never expected him to be so fierce when he puts on a stern face."
"You can't blame them, look at what Cheng Cai's wife is like now? But, Mr. Xie, can you deliver babies? She's so young..."
"With your great-aunt here, what's there to be afraid of?"
Inside, Xie Ning stared expressionlessly at the two little girls. One of them, about two years old, was crying and calling for her mother. The other, even younger, was also crying. Xie Ning stiffly turned her head and asked Sister Hua, "Are these two your children?"
"Yes, yes!" Sister Hua was a little anxious. At this moment, she didn't even care about her own pain and shouted outside, "Da Ya, quickly take your sisters out!"
The child was frightened.
The girl who came in was about eight or nine years old. She steadily carried a basin of hot water and placed it aside. She looked at Sister Hua on the bed with some timidity. Urged by Sister Hua, she took her two younger sisters and left.
"How old is the child? One year old."
Before Sister Hua could even speak, a woman next to her enthusiastically replied, "Da Ya is nine years old, Er Ya is a little over two years old, and San Ya seems to be one year and three months old?"
Sister-in-law Hua corrected, "She's one year and two months old. Sanya was born at full term."
Hearing this, Xie Ning's face darkened even more. She forced a smile. Old Mrs. Ge was knowledgeable and her expression wasn't good either, but she didn't say anything at this moment.
