Chapter 23 You Know Nothing

Wang Ziru couldn't carry so many things, so she had to follow Zhai Ximo to the health center to wait for her mother-in-law to receive an infusion.

The whole family walked into the clinic carrying large and small bags of newly purchased items. This spectacular scene immediately attracted the attention of all the doctors and fellow villagers who came to see the doctor.

"Is this family going to have a wedding?"

"My young wife is really good at making money!"

Those fellow villagers who thought that there was a wedding going on at home stopped talking immediately when they saw Zhai Ximo, wearing a military coat and holding the child, walking into the clinic.

Wang Ziru also saw her mother-in-law, who was lying on a recliner receiving an IV.

The eldest uncle Zhai Qingsong was sitting on a stool next to him. As expected of a filial son, Wang Ziru greeted him with a faint smile: "Big brother."

"Sister-in-law, did you buy so many things?"

Zhai Qingsong looked at his brother and sister-in-law's new clothes and looked at Wang Ziru's graceful figure.

The Chinese New Year has just passed, and my third brother's family seems to be in the mood for the New Year.

"Well, everything in the house needs to be replaced with new ones, so I bought it." Wang Ziru nodded slightly.

"Baoer..." Mrs. Liu saw her grandson, wearing a new hat and a beautiful little scarf.

When he saw Wang Ziru in new clothes again, his expression suddenly turned ugly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu forgot that she was still receiving an IV drip in the clinic and started to curse: "You spendthrift woman, you only know how to waste money and don't care about your family at all. Look at how much money you have to spend on all these things!"

"Yes, I am a spendthrift, but if I wear tattered clothes all day, I am afraid I will never be able to leave the Zhai family."

Wang Ziru put down the backpack and said.

In front of the villagers from all over the health center, she did not refute it, but she heard her mother-in-law continue to say: "And your new clothes are better than the ones you wore during the New Year. You are going to heaven!"

The eldest uncle Zhai Qingsong also muttered to himself, "This sister-in-law is such a spendthrift."

Zhai Ximo walked over holding Bao'er and took a look at the liquid medicine in the saline bottle. There was only a little bit left.

Only then did I remember that the child didn't seem to call me grandma.

"Baoer, call me grandma."

Baoer's face wrinkled and he called out reluctantly, "Milk."

"Hmph! You're a waste of money. You've taught your children badly." Mrs. Liu turned her head away and scolded angrily.

Zhai Ximo vaguely understood why everyone in his family looked down on his wife. With a stern face, he said, "Mom, we have separated now. Don't worry about this or that. Our lives will only get better and better in the future."

"You know shit." Mrs. Liu spat rudely.

I cursed my son and daughter-in-law hundreds of times in my heart. This kid came home to visit his relatives. Since he has money, why didn't he give some to me?

Do you think that all you need to do is give her some medical expenses?

no!

This guy must be made to willingly give money to him!

Mrs. Liu lay on her side on the recliner, and suddenly two tears came out of her eyes and she sobbed. If nothing unexpected happened, her experience would definitely win the sympathy of her fellow villagers in the health center.

Sure enough, when some of her fellow patients saw Mrs. Liu crying miserably, they couldn't help but advise her to be more positive.

Mrs. Liu really wanted to curse.

She felt a little aggrieved, but she knew that now was not the time to quarrel or make trouble, so she endured it and did not lose her temper.

Her purpose was to get her son to pay the money, not to say, "I want you to keep talking!"

At this time, there were quite a few patients suffering from headaches and fevers in the health center.

Patients came in one after another, most of them complaining of headaches and fevers.

The doctor didn't even examine them carefully, but simply prescribed them a few packets of headache powder to take home.

Seeing this scene, Wang Ziru couldn't help but laugh in her heart: "Doctors in the 1980s were also sloppy. As long as the patient said he had a headache, they would just give him a few packets of headache powder and be done with it."

At this time, several people hurriedly walked into the health center with a pregnant woman with a big belly on a cart.

The pregnant woman was pale and thin, but her belly was abnormally large and she looked very weak.

The man carefully carried the pregnant woman into the clinic. As soon as he stepped in, he shouted, "Doctor! Where is the doctor? My wife is about to give birth, but the fetus is in an abnormal position. I'm afraid it will be dangerous!"

The pregnant woman's mother-in-law looked anxious and hurriedly explained the situation to the doctor as soon as she entered the door.

"Doctor, please save my daughter-in-law!" the pregnant woman's mother-in-law cried, "The elders in our village helped to check the fetal position and said that the fetus's feet were facing down, which was a difficult delivery position! We rushed to the health center just to let the doctor take a look. My daughter-in-law is having her first child!"

The female doctor who was diagnosing a fellow villager with a fever immediately stood up and said seriously, "Hurry up and help the pregnant woman to the delivery room inside."

Coincidentally, Wang Ziru and her son were sitting on a bench at the entrance of the clinic.

The obstetrician and gynecologist's professional habit was to glance at the pregnant woman who was being carefully supported by everyone.

In this day and age, if a pregnant woman really encounters a fetal position with the legs facing downwards and there are no professional obstetricians and gynecologists, she will probably be in trouble.

However, the pregnant woman was lucky today as she met her at the health center.

Wang Ziru was sitting at the door, looking at the bustling crowds on the street outside.

There was chaos inside the clinic, as if a pregnant woman was about to give birth.

Several doctors were on standby, following the pregnant woman into a comprehensive clinic inside the clinic. Then, they drew the curtains on the door and glass windows to block out the gazes of many pairs of eyes outside.

Then I heard the pregnant mother-in-law's voice anxiously say: "Doctor, you guys have to think of a solution. It's not easy for my daughter-in-law to be pregnant for ten months. I really don't want to see her get hurt..."

The mother-in-law was already crying as she spoke.

When the doctor heard this, he was a little panicked and quickly asked the pregnant woman to lie down and prepared for the examination.

"You guys go out and wait first,"

Several men hurriedly left the clinic, and only the pregnant woman's husband and mother-in-law stayed inside to take care of her.

The clinic fell into an eerie silence.

After a while, I heard a female doctor in the clinic say:

"Auntie, don't worry. The pregnant woman's condition is very dangerous. She is already full-term and should give birth in the next few days, but it is not hopeless. I suggest you send her to a large county hospital as soon as possible. There are better facilities and doctors there."

When the pregnant woman's mother-in-law heard this, she burst into tears and said, "What should we do? We are poor, how can we afford to go to the big hospital in the county?"

The female doctor comforted her, "Auntie, don't worry about the money. You have several men in your family. You can find a way to borrow some money from relatives. The most important thing now is to ensure the safety of the pregnant woman and the fetus."

Then I heard the man nervously ask, "Can the big hospital correct the fetal position?"

"Brother! The technique you asked about is not something that even experienced doctors may be able to perform. I can only tell you, the head of the family, that after examination, our health center can only recommend that you send the patient to a large hospital in the county as soon as possible. This does not mean that all patients with both feet in the pelvis will not survive..."

"Yes, what if your wife is lucky enough to give birth to the baby herself?"

Several doctors were in the clinic advising the family members.

Outside in the hall, everyone had sympathy on their faces.

Everyone knows that when a woman gives birth, it is like going to King Yan's gate, and whether she survives or not depends entirely on her luck.

Zhai Ximo couldn't help but look slowly towards his wife who was sitting at the door, and he was glad for his good luck in his heart because when Wang Ziru was pregnant and gave birth to a child, he, as her husband, was not at home.

If something bad happened to Wang Ziru back then...

I'm afraid that by the time he returns home, the grass on his wife's grave will be three meters high.

Wang Ziru felt a pair of eyes staring at her. She raised her head and met the man's affectionate and silent gaze.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"Well,"

Zhai Ximo stood up and walked to his wife, holding his son's hand, "I don't think you bought any meat. How about you go buy some pork to bring back?"

When she heard her son asking his daughter-in-law to buy pork, Mrs. Liu suddenly became excited and said loudly, "I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Give me two pounds and two yuan."

There was an immediate outburst of criticism from the lobby of the clinic.

"My daughter-in-law is about to have a difficult birth. Are you trying to show off your wealth?"

Wang Ziru immediately became unhappy when she heard this.

She also heard a burst of crying in the clinic, and it seemed as if the pregnant woman was about to die on the spot.

"You are lucky to have met me." Wang Ziru sighed, stood up and handed the child to the man, "You take care of Baoer, I'll go in and take a look."

"No, what are you going to do?" Zhai Ximo asked nervously.

I saw my wife had already walked into the glaringly lit clinic.
