Chapter 612 I can't bring myself to do it.
Because Yingniang successfully gave birth to two little girls, Li Sanniang became the talk of the town in Yongpingfang once again, and for the next half month, she was very busy every day.
For people at this time, having a child was an extremely important matter.
Compared to Yingniang's previous pregnancy, the fact that Yingniang successfully gave birth to two little girls this time has had a more profound impact on Li Sanniang's reputation for treating those who have difficulty conceiving, and it also better illustrates Li Sanniang's medical skills.
Therefore, in this wave of people coming to see Li San Niang for treatment, the number of men who came with their wives was at least one-third more than last time.
After a busy morning, it was finally lunchtime, and Li San Niang could finally get some rest.
After gulping down a large glass of water, Li Sanniang leaned back in her chair, enjoying the tranquility of the moment.
She had talked so much that morning that not only was she physically exhausted, but Li San Niang felt that her mind and heart were also completely worn out.
"Qiu Xiang, I've probably said more this morning than I have in the other ten days."
Some young men are even more talkative than women; they really can talk a lot.
Thinking back to what happened that morning, Li San Niang felt lingering fear and reached out to pat her chest.
However, thinking of the men who came to accompany their wives to the doctor this morning, Li San Niang said to Qiu Xiang, "Well, that's good. At least they genuinely want to work together to solve the problem. The number of people who came to accompany their wives to the doctor is much higher than last time."
This is a good thing.
Hopefully, more good news will come in ten months after this treatment.
In the afternoon, Li Sanniang, the head of the clinic, was also busy. She was really busy until it was time to go off duty. Even so, she still managed to persuade the dozen or so people in line behind her to leave and come back early the next day.
In the evening, Qiu Xiang helped Li San Niang carry her medical kit. After getting into the carriage, Li San Niang no longer cared about etiquette and simply collapsed against Qiu Xiang.
"No, I can't go on, Qiu Xiang, please let me lean on you for a bit."
At first, Qiu Xiang wondered what was wrong with Li San Niang, but when she saw Li San Niang leaning against her calmly with her eyes closed, Qiu Xiang realized that Li San Niang was fine, just too tired.
Along the way, Li San Niang even managed to take a short nap while leaning against Qiu Xiang.
However, as soon as the Li family's carriage stopped, before Qiu Xiang could call Li San Niang to get up, Li San Niang woke up on her own.
"arrive?
Good Qiu Xiang, you've had a long day. I'm really exhausted today.
This day's nagging and shouting has really worn me out; I have no energy left and all I want to do is lie down and get a good night's sleep.
However, after entering the courtyard, Li San Niang still forced herself to wash her hands. She first cared for Lu Zhu'er and talked to her for a quarter of an hour before leading Qiu Xiang into Li Da Sao's courtyard.
As soon as I entered, I saw Wu Qiaolan, who was about to leave. "Third Sister is back?"
I'll go get some hot water for my sister-in-law.
After Wu Qiaolan finished speaking, she turned her head and called softly into the house, "Sister-in-law, Third Sister is here."
"Thank you so much, Sister Qiaolan. I am very grateful for your careful care during this time."
Before Wu Qiaolan could react, Li Sanniang bowed to her.
Holding a tray with teacups and a teapot, Wu Qiaolan was momentarily stunned and accepted Li Sanniang's greeting without realizing it.
"What is Third Sister doing?"
What did I do?
Bao Ya and I ate and stayed at the Li family's house. Third Sister even taught Bao Ya how to give birth. The Li family didn't ask for any money, and Third Sister didn't even charge us a fee.
I'm just doing some odd jobs, why would I need to do this for you, Third Sister?
"Sister Qiaolan, you don't need to say anything more. Third Sister knows what's going on and can see everything."
"Oh, Third Sister, my sister-in-law is good to me and Baoya, and I did it all voluntarily."
After expressing her gratitude to Wu Qiaolan once more, Li San Niang went into the inner room.
Seeing that Sister-in-law Li had a swollen belly, disheveled hair, and was wearing clothes while leaning against the quilt, her face looked a little tired, but she was still alright. At least she just looked tired, not weak from illness.
"Sister-in-law!"
Sister-in-law Li beckoned for Li San Niang and Qiu Xiang to come forward. Qiu Xiang consciously sat on the chair at the round table to the side, while Li San Niang went straight forward and plopped down on the chair in front of the bed.
"Why do you need to come every day?"
I see you look tired; did you get exhausted from your shift today?
I'm doing well. Qiaolan helps me during the day, and your older brother is here at night, so you don't need to worry about me. I'm fine."
Li San Niang did not object to Li Da Sao's words, but still stubbornly gestured for Li Da Sao to reach out her hand.
Sister-in-law Li smiled helplessly, but still extended her hand to Li San Niang.
Li San Niang immediately began to take the pulse. As soon as she touched it, she sensed something was wrong, but she calmly continued to examine the pulse.
Although Li San Niang pretended nothing was wrong, no matter what, this person was Li Da Sao, the Li Da Sao who had raised her since childhood and treated her better than her own children.
Aside from Li's mother and Lu Zhu'er, she was the most important person to Li San Niang in the Li family.
As Li San Niang continued to hold her hand, both Li Da Sao, who was having her pulse taken, and Qiu Xiang, who was sitting behind Li San Niang, sensed that something was wrong.
Li San Niang felt a little flustered. She stopped what she was doing and carefully asked Li Da Sao about what had happened that day.
"I'll rub my sister-in-law's belly."
While touching her belly, Li San Niang activated her X-ray vision and saw that the lower part of Li Da Sao's uterus had become extremely thin and could detach at any time, causing massive bleeding, hemorrhagic shock, and possibly even intrauterine fetal death!
Li San Niang was truly panicked.
Just then, Wu Qiaolan came into the house with a tray, and Li Sanniang quickly asked her about the amount of bloodstains on Li Dasao's underwear over the past few days.
"It's not much more than last month, but it's not much different."
After obtaining Li Dasao's consent, Li Sanniang lifted the quilt to look at Li Dasao's lower body and examined the bloodstains on her underpants.
"Qiu Xiang, go and call my master, father, and second brother."
Seeing Li San Niang's condition, Wu Qiaolan knew that the situation was urgent. She immediately put down the tray and said to Qiu Xiang, "Qiu Xiang, just go and call Doctor Liang. I'll go and call my aunt and uncle right away."
Soon after, the Li family arrived, along with the elderly doctor Liang and the young boy from Shaoyang.
"...That's how it is. I'm so panicked. I was thinking that I should first...then insert acupuncture at this acupoint, which should help my sister-in-law's pregnancy reach full term as much as possible."
"But...but this is my sister-in-law! I..." Li Sanniang looked at the old doctor Liang sitting at the head of the table, "Master, I can't bring myself to do it."
Thus, the old doctor Liang, Li's father, Li's second brother, the young boy from Shaoyang, and Li Erlang, who had just returned from his shift, noticed that Li San Niang's outstretched right hand was trembling slightly!
