Chapter 471 Breastfeeding and Blockage
Whether Li San Niang's words resolved Qi Zhi Die's inner conflict at its root is unknown; Li San Niang couldn't tell from Qi Zhi Die's outward demeanor alone.
However, Li San Niang was quite open-minded about this.
"How can a person not encounter some obstacles in their life?"
Once you've overcome some hurdles, another one awaits you.
Some hurdles may be insurmountable, but that doesn't stop us from continuing on our life's journey.
The next day, Li San Niang was woken up early by Qiu Xiang. The two quickly tidied themselves up, and as soon as Li San Niang opened the door, she saw a wall.
Ah, it wasn't a wall, it was the tall figure of the tenth brother.
The "ah" sound that Li San Niang made made Lao Shi shift his body, probably realizing that he was frightening people by standing there.
Li San Niang turned around and winked at Qiu Xiang, who found it amusing and pulled Li San Niang downstairs.
When they got downstairs, they found that Qi Zhidie was already waiting there.
"Why are you getting up? Do you think I don't know the way?"
Qi Zhidie picked up a cloth-covered basket from the side. "It's for the road. It's from Zhang's Pancake Shop. It's your favorite meat-filled pancake."
After Li San Niang took it, the aroma of carbohydrates and oil mixed together became even stronger.
"Thank you so much, Madam Qi. I'll definitely bring you something delicious next time I come."
Li San Niang, Qiu Xiang, and the taciturn Lao Shi shared the basket of meat buns on the road.
Upon arriving at Yongpingfang, Li Sanniang quickly said, "Old Shi, let's stop at the intersection and have a bowl of hot mutton soup."
These baked buns are delicious, but I've been choking on them the whole way here. I need to drink something to tide me over.
Lao Shi would only move if Li San Niang gave him a single word.
Upon hearing this, she pulled on the reins, and after the carriage stopped, Li San Niang and Qiu Xiang went to the stall and ordered three bowls of mutton soup.
After blowing on the scalding hot mutton soup with a spoon and drinking half a bowl, Li San Niang finally felt the burning sensation in her esophagus subside a bit.
After greeting Lao Shi, Li San Niang and Qiu Xiang headed towards the clinic. As soon as they arrived, they met Nan Xing.
"Dr. Li, you've arrived early today."
"Go and have some breakfast. I'm keeping an eye on things. I'll let you know if anything happens."
Nanxing was already familiar with Li Sanniang's temperament, so he didn't stand on ceremony. "Hey, Doctor Li, I'll just go eat at the soup noodle shop up ahead. Just call me if you need anything."
Li San Niang waved her hand, and Nan Xing immediately jogged towards the stall.
Li San Niang and Qiu Xiang picked up the cloth that Nan Xing had used to wipe the room halfway and began to clean the inside and outside of the clinic.
After that, Manager Gao, Doctor Li, Doctor Cui, and Tang Mingyue arrived one after another. Li San Niang poured herself a water cup, and another day of duty began.
Since Li San Niang mentioned the issue of limiting the number of patients to Gao, Gao adopted her suggestion. However, this did not reduce the number of people coming to see Li San Niang; on the contrary, even more people came.
However, because of the limited number of tickets, there are always people who make appointments in advance, which causes a lot of trouble for Nanxing and Qili.
Li San Niang turned around and complained to Qiu Xiang: "That's human nature. They probably think that the more restrictions there are, the better. They can see other doctors instead of me, and it will be the same."
But because of the limited number of appointments, they absolutely had to see me.
Now, a man and a woman were sitting in front of Li San Niang. The woman handed over her number plate, saying, "Dr. Li, we waited for two days to get this number plate."
Li Sanniang smiled slightly at the woman and asked, "What is wrong, madam?"
Lady Gao looked to both sides, then glanced at Qiu Xiang behind Li San Niang, before bowing her head and leaning towards Li San Niang, saying, "I heard that Doctor Li is skilled in treating fertility, so I waited two days specifically to come and have him take a look."
After saying that, Madam Gao grabbed the arm of the man beside her, and the man bowed to Li San Niang with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"I inquired about this beforehand and know that Dr. Li, you also examine male offspring. This is my son, my surname is Gao, and my son's surname is Zou."
Please, Dr. Li, give us a thorough examination. I'm desperate for a child; I really want a baby of my own.
Li San Niang hadn't expected that Gao Niangzi had found out all the prerequisites for her consultation, which saved Li San Niang a lot of trouble.
After all, Li San Niang wasn't the kind of doctor who, upon not seeing his wife, would arbitrarily conclude that it was all the wife's fault that the two had no children.
If yin and yang cannot be combined, how can it all be a problem on one side?
Many women, who clearly only have minor health issues, drink all sorts of random medicinal soups in their quest for a child, and end up making themselves sick.
When treating an illness, you need to determine the cause before you can prescribe medicine.
Li San Niang was very satisfied with Gao Niangzi's attitude. Because of Gao Niangzi's words, Li San Niang also developed a good impression of Zou Langjun, who was willing to come along.
After all, a man who is willing to set aside his pride to see his offspring without being urged by outsiders is a very responsible person.
Then, Li San Niang first carefully inquired about the number of years the two had been married, whether they had ever been pregnant, whether they had seen other doctors, and what medicine they had taken.
In this conversation, they naturally inquired about Lady Gao's menstrual cycle.
Lady Gao was eager for a child and wasn't embarrassed at all. On the contrary, it was Mr. Zou who was standing to the side with his head down, looking embarrassed.
"My lady, please extend your hand so I can take your pulse."
Lady Gao stretched out her arm, rolled up her sleeves, took several deep breaths, and then stared intently at Li San Niang.
Li San Niang felt something was wrong as soon as she took the pulse with three fingers, and her expression became serious.
Seeing the expression on Li San Niang's face, Gao Niangzi and Zou Langjun became somewhat frightened, especially Gao Niangzi, whose heartbeat noticeably quickened.
After Li San Niang finished showing it to Gao Niangzi, she gestured for Zou Langjun to reach out his hand.
After examining Zou Langjun, Li Sanniang's expression became even more serious, which made Gao Niangzi and Zou Langjun uneasy.
"Dr. Li, the two of us..."
"Please wait a moment, madam. There is one more physical examination to be performed. You may come into the inner room to see."
Lady Gao stopped herself from asking the question and instead got up and followed Qiu Xiang's gesture to go into the inner room.
After listening to Li San Niang's words, Gao Niangzi lay down on the wooden bed. She turned her head and saw Li San Niang washing, wiping, and rubbing her hands. After being asked questions, she felt Li San Niang's warm palm touching her belly.
In addition to the usual palpation, Li San Niang also had X-ray vision, and then confirmed the problems she had just found out from taking the pulse and asking questions.
Lady Gao and Mr. Zou had been married for seven years but had not been able to conceive. The reason for this was that one of Lady Gao's fallopian tubes was completely blocked, while the other was only narrowed.
Judging from the consultation just now, Madam Gao was pregnant before, but the child was not meant to be and she miscarried after only two months.
This also proves that although one fallopian tube is blocked, Ms. Gao still has a certain chance of getting pregnant.
Now the problem lies with Zou Langjun. Zou Langjun has insufficient kidney qi, and the evidence from the consultation proves that Zou Langjun should have low sperm motility.
