Wei Yan happened to be at the manor, and upon hearing that she had arrived, he immediately came out to greet her.
"Sister Yin, Xiao Shu is waiting for you inside."
How has she been these past few days?
"Same as before, but she kept saying she was hungry, so I gave her some extra nutritional pills."
Hungry?
Xiao Qingyin was overjoyed.
Yun Shu can actually feel hungry? Could it be that she's about to recover?
She couldn't help but quicken her pace.
Upon arriving at the courtyard where Yun Shu and Wei Yan lived, she couldn't wait to take Yun Shu's pulse.
Unexpectedly, this move led to something that shocked her.
She almost thought she had misread the pulse.
But after taking her pulse again, it was still the same as before.
He immediately turned to look at Wei Yan, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
When Wei Yan noticed her strange expression, his heart skipped a beat.
"Sister Xiao, is Xiao Shu alright?"
Xiao Qingyin said irritably, "Nothing? No way! She's pregnant!"
Wei Yan nearly fell off the chair.
"Xiao Shu... she's pregnant?"
His face looked as if he had been through an earthquake, filled with shock and bewilderment.
"How is this possible!"
Xiao Qingyin narrowed her eyes: "You two haven't shared a room?"
If that's the case, then wouldn't Yun Shu be... taken advantage of by someone else?
As she contemplated murder, Wei Yan blushed and stammered, "We did, but I didn't, I didn't..."
I was stuck on the word "没" for ages and couldn't find the second half of the sentence.
Xiao Qingyin understood the meaning behind his words.
She rubbed her forehead.
"You could get pregnant even without going in."
Wei Yan's face flushed red and then turned pale, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Xiao Qingyin sighed.
“Xiao Shu isn’t getting enough nutrition right now. Adding a child would ruin her health.”
Wei Yan's face turned deathly pale.
"Sister Xiao, we don't want the child, you must save Xiao Shu."
He was extremely annoyed.
If he hadn't indulged in pleasure for a moment, Xiao Shu wouldn't have suffered this accident.
It's all his fault...
Just as Xiao Qingyin was about to reply to him, she suddenly noticed the intense gaze that Yun Shu was casting at her.
She turned her head to comfort her, "Xiao Shu, don't be afraid. You're still in the early stages of pregnancy, so you won't feel much if you miscarry."
She can solve the problem with just one set of acupuncture treatments; she doesn't even need to take any medicine.
Yun Shu didn't mean it that way.
She blinked to express her thoughts.
—I want to keep this child.
Xiao Qingyin frowned: "No, the fetus is consuming too much nutrition. Your body can't keep up. Not only will you not be able to save the baby, but even if you do, the delivery will be very dangerous."
—Sister, didn't you mention a case before? There was a female patient like me who got pregnant and recovered well after giving birth.
She was referring to a case that Xiao Qingyin had mentioned to her during a casual conversation, a case that occurred in the world before she transmigrated.
There have been several such cases, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.
Xiao Qingyin never expected that her casual remark would be remembered by Yun Shu.
"This is just an isolated case, and it can't be guaranteed 100%. What you're doing is too risky; it could easily result in the death of both mother and child."
Yun Shu's eyes were very firm.
—I want to give my child a chance, and also give myself a chance.
She's been lying in bed for almost two years now, and she's had enough of this life where her mind is clear but her body is as numb as a stone.
She didn't want to live like this forever.
Even if it's only a one in ten thousand chance, she wants to try.
If she's lucky, she'll recover her health.
If, unfortunately, she passes away soon, no longer a burden to Wei Yan and his family, it would be a good thing.
Xiao Qingyin read her thoughts from her eyes and sighed deeply.
"Think about it again."
After she finished speaking, she gave Wei Yan a look, hoping that he could persuade Yun Shu.
Wei Yan nodded.
Xiao Qingyin went outside to the courtyard to have tea, waiting for the young couple to discuss things.
After finishing two cups of tea, Wei Yan came out with a somewhat somber expression.
She could tell at a glance that he had failed to persuade Yun Shu.
"Xiao Shu insisted on keeping the baby."
Wei Yan said with shame.
"It's all my fault, I caused Xiaoshu to fall into danger..."
"It's not entirely your fault, I also bear some responsibility."
Xiao Qingyin comforted her.
If she had thought things through more and explained things to the two of them, it wouldn't have ended up like this, resulting in a death.
Or perhaps even earlier, if she hadn't mentioned any cases of vegetative state patients waking up after childbirth to Yun Shu, she wouldn't insist on taking the risk now.
But what's done is done, and regret won't help.
"The pills I prepared for Xiaoshu are not enough to support the fetus. She needs to eat some normal food to supplement her nutrition."
"But Xiaoshu can't eat anything..."
“We can use a nasogastric tube to feed him,” Xiao Qingyin replied, “but we need a nasogastric tube.”
The syringe is already available.
She had previously asked Wei Yan to design a production line for the Seven Colors Glass Workshop, which produced a large number of glass syringes.
It is currently mainly used for injecting penicillin developed by medical schools.
After listening to Wei Yan and clarifying the shape and functional requirements of the nasogastric tube, he said, "I'll go find the materials right away."
Xiao Qingyin nodded.
"It doesn't have to be a synthetic material; highly flexible biomaterials can also work."
As she said this, something flashed through her mind, but it disappeared too quickly for her to grasp.
Wei Yan replied, "Okay," and got to work.
Xiao Qingyin couldn't keep such a big news as Yun Shu's pregnancy a secret, so after leaving the Jing'an Marquis's residence, she went to the Zhongyong Marquis's residence to tell Han Shi the news.
Han was more frightened than surprised.
"Wei Yan, that child, seems quite steady, how could he... make such a foolish mistake! Xiao Shu can barely take care of herself, giving birth would be fatal!"
