Chapter 560 Pregnancy Protection
Brother Li's words silenced the entire room for two breaths. It was only when Li Erlang called out "Father!" that the silence was broken and everyone began to speak.
"What...what should we do?"
"Big Brother! What are you saying!"
"Elder brother! This...this..."
"Father, if we have an abortion, will it harm Mother's health?"
Li Erlang's words brought the topic back to whether or not to abort the child.
Facing the gazes of Brother Li and Second Brother Li, Doctor Liang felt immense pressure, unsure whether to speak or remain silent.
"No!"
Li San Niang spoke up, directly denying what Li Da Xiong had said.
"It's already this far along in the pregnancy. If we were to have an abortion, the unpredictable risks would be too great, and it would be bad for my sister-in-law's health."
Li San Niang got up and walked to the bedside, gesturing for her brother Li to make room for her.
Brother Li had no choice but to get up and give up his seat. Only then did Sister Li sit down, take Sister Li's hand, look directly into her eyes, and say, "Sister-in-law, trust me!"
We discovered it early, we saw it early, and we made preparations in advance. I will definitely be able to keep my sister-in-law safe and sound!
"When the time comes," Li San Niang turned her head and first glanced at Li Da Xiong standing beside her, then looked at Li's parents and Dr. Liang sitting on the chair opposite her. Li San Niang then turned her head again and looked at Li Da Sao: "If necessary, I can perform a cesarean section to remove the child!"
At most, it will leave my sister-in-law with a scar on her stomach, but it will definitely save her life!
As the person involved, Sister-in-law Li's previous unease and fear were finally quelled by Li San Niang's resolute words.
Everyone was shocked when they heard Li San Niang say that she would cut open her abdomen to take the child.
Even well-informed people like Dr. Liang and the young boy from Shaoyang were frightened by what Li San Niang said.
However, after seeing that Li Dasao's emotions had stabilized a bit, Li Sanniang smiled again: "Besides, it may not necessarily come to that. Maybe the situation will be good at the time, and she can have a natural birth."
Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'm here!
Li San Niang turned to look at the old doctor Liang opposite her and said with a smile, "I have learned about 70 or 80% of my master's golden needle technique. I will be able to use it when the time comes, which will give me an extra guarantee!"
After much persuasion, at least on the surface, Sister-in-law Li, Brother Li, and Second Brother Li had a better understanding of Sister-in-law Li's situation and decided to actively protect the pregnancy, take the medicine properly, and listen to Li San Niang's every word until the child was safely delivered.
Thus, Brother Li carefully lifted Sister-in-law Li from the bed in his arms, and Li Erlang carried her back to their courtyard with a lantern in front of him.
Li's mother, Li San Niang, and Wu Qiaolan followed along, busying themselves until late at night. They repeatedly reminded Li Da Xiong to be alert while sleeping and not to crowd Li Da Sao.
After giving Li San Niang further instructions on making sure that Li Da Sao stayed in bed as much as possible, Li San Niang, Li's mother, and Wu Qiao Lan went out.
When Li San Niang returned to the side hall, her father, her second brother, the old doctor Liang, and the young boy from Shaoyang were still there, sitting on chairs and stools waiting for her to come back.
The five people discussed until late at night before leaving the side hall one by one.
Right now, Brother Li is using a towel soaked in hot water to wipe Sister-in-law Li's feet.
"It's only been four months, why would I need you to wipe it for me?"
Third Sister said I couldn't get out of bed, but she didn't say I couldn't move around in bed.
Brother Li wouldn't listen to Sister-in-law Li. "I'm your son-in-law. What's wrong with me wiping your feet?"
As he was wiping, Brother Li raised his head and said with a sob in his voice, "Mei Niang, it's all my fault!"
It was my fault! "
Sister-in-law Li was already feeling somewhat uneasy, but Brother Li's tearful outburst left her both amused and exasperated.
"Honestly, how old are you? You're still crying and whining in front of me."
Okay, okay, go ahead and wipe it.
Sister-in-law Li stopped arguing with Brother Li, slowly lay down, and once she was comfortable, she continued, "Don't worry about me."
Since Third Sister said to listen to her, then I believe her and will listen to her; everything should be fine.
The next day, after Li San Niang got up, she intended to go to the kitchen to fetch a bucket of hot water, but she saw Wu Qiaolan sitting in front of the stove in the kitchen.
"Third Sister, are you up?"
"I have hot water; I got up early and boiled a big pot."
Just as Li San Niang was about to greet Wu Qiao Lan, she heard Wu Qiao Lan ask with a hint of trepidation, "San Niangzi, I don't know if Brother Li has left yet."
I was thinking of taking a bucket of hot water to find my sister-in-law, but I wasn't sure if it would be appropriate.
Li San Niang wasn't really sure about this. Before she could answer, her mother's voice came from the kitchen doorway: "I asked Da Lang to take leave today, but he didn't go to his duty."
Qiaolan, stop working and take a rest. You've done a lot of chores at home before.
"After a while, when Dalang and the others get up, he will naturally come over to fetch water."
"Mother, why did you ask my elder brother for leave?"
Mother Li reached out and tucked a stray hair behind her ear before saying to Li San Niang, "Your sister-in-law is pregnant this time, we should tell our in-laws."
Moreover, a biological mother and a mother-in-law are always different.
So, I was thinking of going to the Jiang family with your elder brother to invite your mother-in-law to come and see your sister-in-law. If it's possible, she could stay at our house for a couple of days.
Li San Niang was surprised that her mother had even thought of this. When Li's mother saw the thumbs-up Li San Niang gave her, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Alright, stop joking with me. Hurry up and take the hot water back to wash up. You still have to rush to your shift."
"Oh," Li Sanniang scooped hot water from the pot into the wooden tub, and said as she was leaving, "If anything happens to my sister-in-law, Mother, you must ask my second brother to call me back from the clinic."
Only then did Li San Niang leave with the bucket of hot water.
After the various sounds from the street became lively, Li's mother and elder brother told their family and left the clinic to find a carriage on the street to go to the Jiang family's house.
If you're going to someone's house, you're probably inviting them over, so it's good to bring some gifts.
Li's mother and elder brother first went to Xiang Gui Ji to buy four kinds of pastries, and then bought two roast chickens from a well-known brand and two jars of good wine before they finally visited the Jiang family.
The Jiang family was easy to talk to, and Li's mother suggested, "If you think it's alright, it would be even better if you could come and stay for a few days."
My eldest son's wife is a good person; I treat her like my own daughter.
But one's in-laws are like a mother to one's own children; if my sister-in-law could go and comfort her, that would be truly wonderful.
Finally, Jiang's mother and sister-in-law packed several bundles and followed Li's elder brother and mother into the carriage to return to the Li family home.
