Chapter 178 The Soup for Infertility
After hearing this incredibly melodramatic tale of the martial arts world, Li Sanniang put aside the familiarity it evoked and once again posed her question to Jiu Niang: "Alright, now that you've heard this young man's story, let's get down to business. Jiu Niang, I'll ask you one last time: do you still want to save this child?"
"Save!"
"No!"
Two completely different answers were shouted out simultaneously by people in the audience.
The one who said she wanted to save the child was naturally Jiu Niang, who was already caught up in her obsession and unwilling to step out of it and see reality.
The one who said no was Yulang.
Li San Niang was quite surprised by this scene, and then she heard Yu Lang holding Jiu Niang's hand, looking at her affectionately and saying, "Jiu Niang, I only want to be with you. We don't need a child. Your health is the most important thing. Listen to me, let's not have this child, okay?"
Li San Niang saw Jiu Niang forcefully pull her hand out of Yu Lang's palm, not even glancing at him, and look at Li San Niang with pleading eyes, saying, "San Niangzi, I want to save this child. I won't change, I just want to save this child."
Li San Niang was a doctor, but that was all.
Doctors should certainly listen to the opinions of patients' families, but they should listen most to the needs of the patients themselves.
The belly belongs to Jiu Niang, the child is hers, and her life is her own.
Li San Niang could only do so much, so when faced with Jiu Niang's request, she nodded: "I understand, and I will do my best to protect this child. But... do you understand what I said before? If you regret it later, there will be nothing I can do."
"I understand, thank you, Third Sister."
Li San Niang sighed, picked up her medical kit, and went to other rooms, intending to take advantage of the early hour to examine each of the other women in Shihua Tower.
Qiu Xiang and the coachman came out with Li San Niang. Seeing this, Qi Zhi Die called Ling Lan and the other two to leave hand in hand, leaving Jiu Niang, who was leaning against the headboard with her eyes closed and not even glancing at Yu Lang, and Yu Lang sitting on the edge of the bed.
The matter between the two of them is something outsiders can't and shouldn't interfere with, so let them resolve it themselves.
Li Sanniang watched until the first watch of the night, having looked at all the women in the Shihua Tower.
Basically, apart from a few virgin girls, every woman in the Shihua Pavilion suffers from some kind of illness.
After prescribing medicine according to each person's different symptoms, Li San Niang was about to give them some instructions on how to brew the medicine when Qi Zhi Die came to Li San Niang and made a request.
"A potion to prevent having children?"
"Yes, I hope that Third Sister will prescribe a potion to prevent women from having children for each of the women in the brothel."
"What's going on? Didn't Mr. Ke say that women no longer need to sell themselves? They could just do some drinking companionship. Why do they still need to drink the infertility soup?"
Qi Zhidie poured Li Sanniang a cup of tea and looked at her, saying in a cool voice, "It's not possible. Mr. Ke has already agreed that we only need to gather some intelligence."
However, once a woman enters this place, she becomes a person of this place for life.
Sometimes we have no choice but to comply, but it's much better than before. We can refuse customers like that; otherwise, it's just about getting a one-night stand.
Upon hearing Qi Zhidie's words, Li Sanniang naturally realized that it was indeed the case.
"Ninth Sister was still pregnant, which frightened all the women in the brothel."
People like us are lucky if we have even the slightest bit of luck to go with a merchant and become his mistress.
True love is hard to find. My sisters have long seen through it all. Aside from money, men's words are lies; you can't trust them.
Li San Niang naturally agreed with this.
But we don't have to be so absolute. Good men certainly exist; it's just that not every woman can meet a good man.
In addition, Qi Zhidie's words make sense. Once they spend a day in the pleasure quarters, they will be stuck in that world for life. Such an experience makes it very difficult for them to find a husband who truly cares for them.
Thus, Li San Niang began to understand, "But there's no need to drink the infertility-preventing soup. Even if I didn't say it, Madam Qi should know that there must be something harmful to a woman's body in it. How can you harm yourself for this?"
Don't worry, Madam Qi. When I come next time, I'll give you all a little lesson on contraception.
Let's forget about this "fertility-inhibiting soup"; it's really unnecessary.
I can prescribe a contraceptive soup that won't harm your health and will even replenish your qi and blood. It'll just cost a bit more money, but the money Lady Qi gave me before is enough. I'll bring it with me next time I come.”
If there is a better way to solve the problem, then Qi Zhidie is fine with it.
At midnight, after finishing organizing the medical records of each of the women, Li Sanniang finally lay down. Before going to sleep, she opened the task system as usual and took a look. The progress had reached 24/100. Li Sanniang felt that the opportunity to wish for superpowers was just around the corner.
Before dawn, Qiu Xiang gently woke Li San Niang. The two of them needed to hurry back to the Li family while it was still dark and there were few people around.
Although she went to bed a little late last night, Li San Niang felt that her body had recently started to get a buff, meaning that she could be full of energy after just a little rest.
It should be noted that Li San Niang only experienced this feeling when she first transmigrated, and then gradually stopped feeling it.
Furthermore, after her previous injury, she was also plagued by nightmares. At that time, she felt that she had no energy every day and could not sleep well. It was not only physical pain, but also a kind of anxiety and pressure on her mind and body, which made her feel like she could not breathe.
But ever since she started working at the clinic and began saving people, as the number of people she saved increased, Li San Niang felt that the feeling of having a buff had returned.
So, when Li San Niang returned to the Li family, she didn't think about going back to sleep. Instead, she joined the four little ones running laps around the yard, and then used the small stone weight that her eldest brother had specially found to practice her strength.
Furthermore, Li San Niang also invited Li Da Lang to come and teach her boxing during his ten-day break.
After helping Sister-in-law Li cook the meal and having breakfast with Lu Zhu'er, Song Dalang also drove his donkey cart to bring Song Xiaoniang over.
At the usual time, Li San Niang arrived at the entrance of the Medicine Hall in about fifteen minutes.
On the way here, Li San Niang couldn't help but ask Qiu Xiang what the Bad People planned to do about Yu Lang's matter.
"The master said that as long as it doesn't affect our own affairs at Shihualou, he won't interfere with Jiu Niang and Yu Lang's affairs. However, it seems that the master has a deal with Yu Lang, but I don't know about that."
Having satisfied her curiosity, Li Sanniang waited for her patients to come to her door that day.
