"Third Uncle, didn't you see that Third Aunt's face has turned pale from the pain?" Qiao Xiaoni couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up for justice, "Instead of wasting time talking nonsense here, you should go and call a doctor. If something happens because you're late, I'd like to see where you'll regret it."
His complexion was clearly different from a normal person's, and he was still eating pig's ears. How could there be such a man in the world?
Su Chenhao walked up to Qiao Hainan and grabbed him by the collar. "Aren't you going to go get a doctor right now? Do you want to get beaten up?"
Qiao Hainan was frightened and quickly nodded in agreement.
Su Chenhao then let go of her hand, turned around, and returned to Qiao Xiaoni's side.
Qiao Xiaoni was very satisfied with his performance and gave him an appreciative look.
Su Chenhao smiled knowingly. If the occasion weren't inappropriate, he really wanted to pat her head. That familiar feeling came over him again, as if he had done it before.
Qiao Tianli also noticed that his daughter-in-law's complexion was very abnormal, and said to Qiao Xiaoni,
"Quickly take him back to his room and let him lie down."
Qiao Xiaoni nodded and helped Zhang Ru into the house, to the smallest room, where no table was set up. In the countryside, every household holds a feast either in the courtyard or on the kang (a heated brick bed) inside the house, all for the sake of having many people and a lively atmosphere.
Zhang Ru finally lay down, covered herself with a thick quilt, and she would remember Qiao Xiaoni's kindness to her for the rest of her life.
Qiao Xiaoni hadn't studied medicine, but she had a medical background! Touching her pulse, she made a startling discovery: Zhang Ru was probably pregnant. The severe abdominal pain must have been due to a miscarriage. Thinking about the fall earlier, she wondered if the baby would be alright.
Qiao Sunshi felt that Zhang Ru was faking illness to gain everyone's sympathy. Who hasn't had a stomachache? She didn't have a good look on her face, and everyone kept their distance from her. Nobody wanted to start a fight at this time.
Soon everyone's attention was drawn to the aroma emanating from the kitchen. Regardless of the holidays, the smell of meat made everyone hungry.
Since Su Chenhao couldn't help with the housework, he went to the kitchen to help, ladling the cooked dishes onto plates and then placing a large lid on each table to serve them.
Qiao Tianli watched his future grandson-in-law bustling around and thought to himself that the boy was good, perceptive and hardworking.
Qiao Hai was worried that Su Chenhao wouldn't be able to handle everything by himself, so he went to the kitchen to help. Soon, everyone at the table was able to eat a hot meal.
Another pot of rice was steamed and placed in the center of the yard, so anyone who wanted some could take some. With food available, no one paid much attention to what was happening inside the house. Chopsticks moved rapidly as people scrambled for the pig's head meat on the plate.
Inside the house.
Zhang Ru's pain intensified, her hair soaked with sweat. "It hurts! Has the doctor come yet? I'm dying from the pain!"
Qiao Xiaoni wiped her sweat with a damp towel. "Third Aunt, hang in there a little longer, the doctor will be here soon."
Zhang Ru nodded with difficulty, clutching her stomach, feeling something being pulled inside, making it hard to breathe.
Seeing that her condition was not good, Qiao Xiaoni thought of the many pills in her space. Taking them out could save her, but that would easily expose the space, because she would have no way of explaining where the medicine came from.
I was extremely anxious when I heard a woman's voice.
"How is the person? Which road are they on?"
Su Chenhao said, "It's in the room inside. The situation isn't good. Come in and take a look quickly."
