The next day, after the sun came out, Lin Chaodong carried Liu Shi to a wooden cart covered with several quilts. She was covered with two thick cotton quilts, and her head was tucked into the quilts. The front and back of the wooden cart were also blocked with wooden boards. When he felt that it was about time, Lin Chaodong pulled the wooden cart and set off.
Because the road was difficult to travel and it was the dead of winter, Village Chief Lin couldn't bear to see his cattle suffer, so he only lent them a wooden cart. The three brothers had to take turns pulling the cart, and Yue Jiuyue didn't want to add to their burden.
To be honest, although Yue Jiuyue was worried, she really didn't want to go along. She didn't want to take the blame if the doctor found out something wrong, such as the fetus being too big, and then blamed her as the mother-in-law for not doing a good job.
As Yue Jiuyue predicted, when Lin Chaodong and his group finally arrived at the Li Family Clinic in Huandong Town after going through countless hardships, the old doctor Li, upon learning that Liu Shi was only seven months pregnant, immediately gave Lin Chaodong a hard time and berated him.
"Don't just think about raising the child to be chubby. A big, chubby son is nice, but your wife will suffer during childbirth! Childbirth is already difficult for women, and if you just ignore it and raise the child to be chubby and plump, he might look adorable when he's born, but won't your wife suffer even more during childbirth? If something happens to you, you'll regret it!"
Lin Chaodong was thoroughly humiliated by Dr. Li's reprimand but dared not utter a sound. Liu Shi was also terrified by Dr. Li's words, her face paling. After all, her son was important, but her own life was even more important.
"After you go back, control your food intake. Eat less at each meal, and eat when you're hungry. You can eat more meals a day if necessary. Walk around more and move around more, so you won't be too weak and have no energy when you give birth."
Dr. Li has seen countless pregnant women and families like this in his lifetime of medical practice, but every time he sees them, he can't help but give them a hard time and keep nagging on and on, not knowing how much of what they actually hear.
He naturally knew this family, especially Lin Chaonan, who had once studied medicine processing at their shop for a period of time. If the clinic hadn't been full of apprentices, he would have kept him there.
However, back then, the clinic couldn't afford to support apprentices, even if it was just a matter of adding one more pair of chopsticks.
It's not possible now; we'll have to wait and see.
Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda. He couldn't help but pull Lin Chaonan aside and whisper a few words to him.
"Uncle Li! My mother's words are useless! Do you think she didn't say anything? But my older brother and sister-in-law simply won't listen, and my mother is at her wit's end! You should talk to my older brother and sister-in-law more!"
Lin Chaonan could also see that his mother no longer wanted to get involved in his elder brother's family affairs. She even sent Xiaoman'er back when she wanted to eat together, which showed his mother's determination.
If he were to take on another job for his mother, she would be furious!
Since it's the eldest brother and his wife's own business, of course they should handle it themselves. Anyway, there's a pot and stove in the back room, so they can cook for themselves whenever they want. They can't expect their mother to keep an eye on things like this, can she? They're not three-year-olds!
No, a three-year-old is at the naughty age, and you can't keep them at home!
What could Dr. Li do? He could only continue to urge Lin Chaodong and his wife, reiterating the serious risks to the child, determined to convince them they wouldn't be afraid! But they wouldn't listen!
