But now is not the time to lose your temper. The important thing now is to find a doctor to come and see what's wrong with Chen Qiuling.
So Bai Dalin could only coax Chen Qiuling softly, "Wife, I'm going to the King of Hell to get our child back. Can you let me go first?"
Upon hearing the word "child," Chen Qiuling finally regained her composure and looked at Bai Dalin expectantly, "Really? Husband, really? You can really get our child back?"
Bai Dalin pulled Chen Qiuling's hand off his sleeve and tucked it under the covers, softly assuring her, "Of course it's true. Your husband is so powerful, even the King of Hell wouldn't be a match for me. You stay home and get some sleep, your husband will be right back, okay?"
"Then you need to come back quickly!" Chen Qiuling looked at Bai Dalin, as helpless as a kitten that couldn't find its home.
"Okay!" Bai Dalin nodded, leaned down and kissed Chen Qiuling's forehead before turning and leaving.
After Bai Dalin left, Chen Qiuling trembled all over, staring blankly at the ceiling, seemingly lost in thought.
"Doctor, doctor, you must help me! My wife is talking nonsense!" Soon, Bai Dalin brought a doctor in and explained Chen Qiuling's condition to him as he led him in. "She's perfectly fine, but she keeps saying there are ghosts in this world and even took the baby out of her womb."
As the doctor followed Bai Dalin into Bai Dalin and Chen Qiuling's room, he answered Bai Dalin's questions as they walked, "The patient seems to be experiencing hysteria, but it's hard to say exactly what's wrong right now. Let me examine the patient first."
"Here!" Bai Dalin led the doctor to the bedside and pointed to Chen Qiuling on the bed, saying, "Doctor, this is my wife."
"Oh dear!" The doctor looked through the transparent mosquito net at Chen Qiuling and saw that her eyes were wide open and her face was swollen and red like a pig's head. He was immediately shocked and looked at Bai Dalin reproachfully, "Didn't you say your wife is pregnant? How could you beat her like this? You'll cause her to miscarry, and you'll drive her insane!"
I never expected this man to be like this. I thought he was a good man, but it turns out he's a wife-beater. You really can't judge a book by its cover!
"No!" Bai Dalin quickly explained when he realized the doctor had misunderstood him and thought he had caused the injuries on Chen Qiuling's face. "I didn't hit my wife. I don't know what happened to her. I worked outside all night, and when I came back, I found her lying on the ground unconscious with injuries on her face. When I woke her up, she was talking nonsense, so I called you here. My wife is carrying my child. How could I bear to hit her? Wouldn't that be like being an animal?"
Bai Dalin didn't want to tell others that he had gone out drinking and hadn't returned home all night, so he could only make up a random excuse.
Seeing that Bai Dalin spoke sincerely, the doctor looked at him suspiciously, pushed Bai Dalin away, and lifted the mosquito net. "Let me take your pulse first."
Then he sat down on the edge of the bed.
Bai Dalin quickly pulled Chen Qiuling's hand out from under the covers and whispered to her, "Wife, the doctor is here. Let him take your pulse!"
When Chen Qiuling saw Bai Dalin appear before her, she finally spoke, "Dalin, where is my child? Is he coming back?"
"It's coming back!" Bai Dalin said quickly. "It's in this old man's hands. Give him your hand and let him put the baby back in your belly!"
Bai Dalin looked at the doctor with a bitter expression and pleaded, "Doctor, please look!"
Bai Dalin was genuinely afraid that the doctor wouldn't cooperate with him and might say something inappropriate, which would further provoke Chen Qiuling.
The doctor nodded, indicating to Bai Dalin that he knew what to do, and then said to Chen Qiuling in a serious tone, "Yes, your child is in my hands, but considering how sincere your husband is, I have decided to return the child to you. Give me your hand, and I will return your child to you!"
Chen Qiuling understood now; the old man wanted to return her child. So, she quickly stretched out her hand, saying, "Quickly give me back my child! I want my child!" while looking anxiously at the doctor.
The doctor took Chen Qiuling's pulse and, after confirming it, said, "Go back now!" Then he added to Chen Qiuling, "It's alright, your child has returned and is inside you. Remember to take good care of it."
Chen Qiuling quickly and carefully withdrew her hand as if it were a precious treasure.
"Doctor, this..." Bai Dalin looked on with a bitter expression. "My wife..." Has she gone mad?
It's no wonder Bai Dalin had this thought; anyone who saw Chen Qiuling like this would think she had gone mad.
The doctor stood up, pointed to the door, and said, "Let's talk outside."
"Okay!" Bai Dalin nodded quickly and strode out first.
Once inside the courtyard, Bai Dalin asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Doctor, has my wife gone mad?"
"She's not crazy!" the doctor said with a smile. "The patient is probably just frightened, that's why she's like this. I'll prescribe some calming medicine for her, she'll be fine in a few days. Also, the injuries on her face need to be taken good care of. I don't know who did this, to treat a pregnant woman so badly. If it wasn't you, do you have some enemies outside? They say you shouldn't harm your wife, children, and elderly mother, you'd better be careful."
Seeing that his wife and children were alright, Bai Dalin breathed a sigh of relief and immediately beamed with joy. He took out ten taels of silver from his pocket and gave it to the doctor, then cheerfully saw him off. "Doctor, you're right. I'll definitely be careful. Thank you so much, you've worked so hard."
