Chapter 176 Is Ruan crazy?
Ruan forced a smile.
But I felt more and more uneasy.
"Wow……"
She couldn't help but start retching again, and her stomach felt like it was being cut by a knife.
She didn't have these symptoms when she gave birth to her two daughters.
Mrs. Zhou and Lin Shiqi were both in the room accompanying Ruan, waiting for the doctor to arrive.
It was hard to bear to see Zhou Laoer behaving like this.
Zhou Laoer is usually a steady and honest person, the kind that can't even be beaten with eight sticks.
I am so happy today.
"Alright, alright, second brother..."
As they were chatting and laughing, Zhou Sanlang came back with the doctor.
"Grandma, Second Aunt, I have invited the old doctor here."
Mrs. Zhou went out personally to greet the doctor, exchanged some polite words, and then brought the doctor into the house.
The doctor smiled and said, "You said you want to protect the fetus, so I brought a lot of good things to protect the fetus. I know that your Zhou family is willing to spend money on it. When you settle the money later, don't give me any change..."
"Zhong Zhong Zhong, we are old acquaintances, you won't cheat us..." Mrs. Zhou was prepared to bleed heavily.
I can’t get pregnant.
Since she is pregnant, it is imperative for the second couple to protect the fetus.
The old doctor came to Ruan, who was lying on the bed at the time. Zhou Laoer was standing beside her and he quickly made way for the doctor.
"Please. Please."
The old doctor first looked at Ruan's complexion and frowned slightly.
Then, he began to take the pulse.
Gradually, the smile on his face began to disappear.
His expression changed to a serious one.
"Doctor, what's wrong?" asked Mrs. Zhou.
The old doctor uttered an "ah" and started taking the patient's pulse again, his expression becoming even more serious.
Finally, the diagnosis was confirmed.
"She is not pregnant. I can't detect any signs of pregnancy. It seems more like... she has been poisoned."
Mrs. Zhou was shocked. "What? How is this possible? Not pregnant? Poisoned?"
Zhou Laoer was unwilling to believe it either. "Doctor, this is no joke. Please diagnose it carefully. My wife really hasn't had her period and she's vomiting during the morning. If this isn't a sign of pregnancy, what is it?"
In the crowd, Lin Shiqi saw Ruan herself looking guilty and flustered, and he felt a little relieved.
"Second sister-in-law, please talk to the doctor. Have you eaten anything by mistake recently? Or have you used something you shouldn't have used?"
She also felt that Ruan's physiognomy did not seem like a sign of pregnancy. She had seen that the filthy things that Ruan vomited out were all black unknown substances.
Moreover, Ruan's entire body was dark blue in color. If she had not been dressed decently, she would have been mistaken for a wandering ghost crawling out from the ground if she were walking on the street at night.
Ruan couldn't answer and just covered her face and cried.
As he cried, he began to vomit uncontrollably.
This time, everyone saw clearly that her vomit was not only smelly, but also black saliva. The sharp-eyed ones could see blood mixed in it.
The doctor was shocked.
"Sister Ruan, what did you eat? Has the toxin accumulated to this extent?"
After Ruan vomited, she was half dead and looked like she was dying.
Just crying, not daring to speak.
The doctor used something to scrape out the vomit.
He added, "This is because he ate a lot of wood ash...Mrs. Zhou, your family is not so poor as to treat your daughter-in-law like this, right?"
It’s not that the doctor was wrong, but that people subconsciously think this way.
Because many families lack food and clothing, they will abuse their daughters-in-law.
All kinds of embarrassing things have happened, and the old doctor has seen a lot of them.
He would only ask this question because they were acquaintances.
Not only were there people from the Zhou family in the room, but there were also villagers who came to congratulate and watch the fun.
They all looked at Mrs. Zhou with strange eyes.
This made Mrs. Zhou so anxious that she jumped up and down, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Our family's food is famous for being good in Taohua Village. Although we only have two meals a day, there is no limit on the amount. You can eat as much as you want. There are also meat dishes every now and then, and eggs and other meaty dishes are available every day. The bean dregs, soy milk, and tofu pudding in our house are all available to them as much as they want. We even put sugar in it. We will never mistreat my daughter-in-law by making her eat wood ash..."
Liu and the others quickly stepped forward to testify, "Yes, mother is right, our family has good food, everyone can sit at the table and eat, no limit on the amount."
The children of Lao Zhou's family also said that they could eat well and that no one in the family ate wood ash.
Not only now, but no one has ever eaten wood ash before.
Although it was Mrs. Zhou who distributed the food in the past, she would eat less herself and still take care of everyone in the family.
Lin Shiqi opened his mouth and said, "Second sister-in-law, why do you want to eat wood ash? How can you joke with your own body? If your body is damaged, there will be nothing left. It is not something that can be eaten!"
Ruan choked up and said, "I, I didn't eat wood ash. I, I ate incense ash. I got a secret recipe from somewhere else, which said that eating incense ash can give birth to a son..."
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Mrs. Zhou cursed, "You stupid bastard! Eating incense ash can give birth to a son? You believe this nonsense. Oh my God, why did our Zhou family marry a brainless thing like you? You must want to die before me, an old woman. You are really not afraid of death... You are so stupid! Not only will you die of stupidity, but you also want to implicate me and bear the crime of abusing my daughter-in-law. It really makes me angry to death."
He turned around and scolded Zhou Laoer again, "Laoer, you f*cking know about this? Do you know that your wife ate incense ash?"
Zhou Laoer immediately shrugged his shoulders and lowered his face, and said nothing.
You can tell at a glance that he knows about it.
Mrs. Zhou covered her chest and gasped in anger, "I said several times that I saw the corners of her mouth were black, and I thought your wife was lazy and didn't wash her face... OK, OK, you two are crazy about having a son!"
Everyone couldn't help but talk out loud, "Oh my God! This is really reckless, is Ruan crazy?"
"Who said it wasn't? She drove herself crazy trying to have a son."
"This Zhou Laoer is also wrong. How could he let his wife eat incense ashes? Women are stupid. He is a man, is he also so stupid?"
"I almost wrongly accused Mrs. Zhou. I knew that she was a kind person with a sharp tongue but a kind heart. During the famine, not a single person in the Zhou family starved to death. It's impossible. Now that life is better, she would still do such a wicked thing..."
"Ah, the Ruan couple really have a hard time. I heard that they stole thirty taels of silver from their family to buy magic pills. They look honest and decent, but the reality is hard to describe..."
Hearing everyone say this, Zhou Laoer also lowered his head in shame.
I didn't dare say a word.
Afraid of being criticized by others.
Ruan struggled to get up from the bed and knelt down in front of Mrs. Zhou. "Mother, I ate it voluntarily. It has nothing to do with us, the head of the family. I didn't expect to eat like this. I just want to give birth to a son for the Zhou family, mother..."
