Chapter 37: Birth
Only Hu Li seemed to be kept in the dark, unaware of how harsh her words were.
Guo Huaqin felt a little embarrassed and smiled.
Just as she was about to change the subject, she heard Hu Li continue, "Miss Ruan, thank you so much for helping me with my medical treatment!"
"How about this, I also live in this family compound. If you get pregnant, come find me and I'll help take care of you!"
Hu Li talked to herself.
He was completely unaware that he had crossed the line, and instead appeared enthusiastic.
Hu Li was a simple person with no bad intentions. Holding Erwa in her arms, she said, "I see Xiaoli is tall and strong. You must have suffered a lot! Don't worry, women go through it all. You'll get used to it after you give birth to a child!"
“Ahem!”
This time, not only Xiao Zhiyu, but also Ruan Chuxia coughed, and her face turned slightly red.
Hu Li herself didn't notice this and was still smiling.
Ruan Chuxia quickly finished the acupuncture for Erwa, and after about half an hour, she pulled out the needles.
During this process, she kept her head down, concentrating on the things at hand, trying to ignore the embarrassing topic just now.
Finally, she took out a piece of letter paper from the study, quickly wrote down the prescription, grabbed a handful of the herbs she had just bought, carefully mixed them up, divided them into medicine bags and handed them to Hu Li.
"Sister Hu Li, the child should be fine after acupuncture. Take this prescription and ask the pharmacist to prepare the medicine according to the prescription. Let the child drink it for a month, and he will be fine."
"So... my son can be cured by taking medicine for a month?"
Hu Li took the medicine bag, her eyes widened and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
She held the medicine bag tightly, as if she was holding hope.
Erwa has been suffering from this disease for more than two years, but there has been no improvement. He has tried all kinds of methods but still cannot find a suitable treatment method.
Hu Li excitedly held Ruan Chuxia's hand, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Sister, today, thanks to you for curing my child's illness, you are our savior. Tell me, how can I thank you..."
She said with a sob.
"You're welcome, Sister Hu Li. It's my duty to cure illnesses and save lives. You really don't need to be so polite!"
Ruan Chuxia said modestly.
"How can that be? I have to do something to repay you!"
Hu Li's eyes lit up, and suddenly she tapped her forehead as if she had a good idea, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"How about this, I'll have someone make you a silk banner when I get home. Once it's done, you can hang it at the entrance to your living room. That way, when guests come to visit, they'll be able to see it as soon as they enter!"
She excitedly pulled Ruan Chuxia's arm, gesturing and talking.
Listening to the other party's enthusiastic words, Ruan Chuxia smiled slightly and almost couldn't hold back the corners of her mouth.
In fact, in her opinion, this practice is a bit too grand and not so necessary.
Hang the bright red banner in a prominent place in your living room.
Every time someone passed by, they could see it clearly, which always made her feel a little embarrassed.
Hu Li left the Xu family's gate holding the child who had just regained his energy.
Before leaving, Ruan Chuxia took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket and handed them to them.
After seeing the guests off and closing the door, he returned to the house.
Guo Huaqin and his wife were sitting quietly on the sofa, but their eyes never left Xiao Zhiyu.
Facing the sudden attention of the elders.
Xiao Zhiyu couldn't help but frown, feeling a little puzzled.
"Why are you all looking at me?" he asked in confusion.
I thought to myself that I haven’t done anything out of the ordinary in the team recently.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhenwu coughed hurriedly, pretending to drink tea to hide his panic, and at the same time gave his wife Guo Huaqin a secret signal.
After receiving the signal, Guo Huaqin reacted immediately.
"Zhiyu, that Xiao Hu just mentioned the topic of pregnancy... Look at the relationship between you and Xiaoxia..."
"Mom didn't mean to rush you!"
He realized that his son might misunderstand what he said.
She quickly added, "Don't get me wrong, Mom understands your current situation. I just want to know... if there's still a possibility..."
As time goes by, Guo Huaqin, who is getting older, is looking forward to becoming a grandmother as soon as possible.
Hearing his mother's frank and straightforward question, Xiao Zhiyu couldn't help but lower his eyes, and his expression became even colder.
After a moment, he took a deep breath, frowned, and whispered, "My situation has dragged Xiao Xia down."
Xiao Zhiyu felt a deep sense of guilt.
I couldn't help but start to reflect on whether I was too selfish?
Forcing Ruan Chuxia to stay by his side, what if he really can't have his own children in the future...
"What's the point of saying delay or not?"
Ruan Chuxia wiped her hands and sighed softly.
She glanced at the expressions of Guo Huaqin and his wife, and then at Xiao Zhiyu's face.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry about the child. It's best to let everything take its course."
Ruan Chuxia's voice was gentle.
"Besides, it's getting late, let's go to the hospital first."
"Yes, yes, look at my memory. Let's set off quickly and don't let the old man wait too long."
Hearing this, Guo Huaqin suddenly remembered that she had originally planned to go out for dinner with her family to celebrate today.
After hearing what Hu Li said just now, my mind was full of thoughts about what my future grandchildren would look like. How could I not feel heavy at all?
But Zhiyu's situation was already like this.
As a mother, what else can Guo Huaqin do except feel heartbroken and helpless?
She secretly looked at her tall and strong son with loving eyes.
Such an extremely outstanding person happened to encounter such a thing.
Guo Huaqin sighed.
"Let's not think about these worries anymore. At least we still have many other things worth cherishing."
Then she stood up with a smile and reached out to hold Ruan Chuxia's wrist.
"Let's go. Zhiwei must be waiting anxiously in the hospital."
"She's helping Grandpa pack his belongings. I almost forgot to tell you that Grandpa's recovery is remarkably good. Not only can he eat on his own now, he can even get out of bed and walk slowly! So we've decided to take him back to a large hospital in the capital within the next few days for better treatment!"
After hearing this, Ruan Chuxia showed a slightly surprised expression.
Because she really didn't expect the old man to recover so quickly.
But it makes sense when you think about it.
This place is too remote and the medical conditions are really limited.
Old Mr. Xiao felt that he didn't have much time left, so he decided to come to this place far away from the hustle and bustle to spend his last days with his grandchildren.
Now that the old man's physical condition has improved significantly through her meticulous treatment and careful care, he should naturally be transferred to a place with more advanced conditions to recuperate.
After thinking for a moment, Ruan Chuxia replied, "Then I'll prescribe him a few more prescriptions suitable for his current condition. After you take them back, ask the doctor over there to prepare them for Mr. Xiao based on his actual condition."
