Do you force a cow to drink water if it doesn't want to?
“Grandma, if you really want to do this, fine, I’ll ask Boss Cai for you. If he’s willing, then pretend I didn’t say anything.” Noticing that Luo Xiaoxue’s face was getting increasingly pale, Lu Siqiao knew there was no way to resolve this peacefully, so she said loudly.
Old Mrs. Ruan continued to scold, "Don't keep bringing up your godfather, I don't buy into that."
Shao Lihua said viciously, "We'll see each other all the time. You can't get fat by eating alone. Be careful you don't give birth to a baby without an anus!"
Seeing that they were going too far, Lu Siqiao hardened her heart and shouted angrily at Xiao Huang, "Xiao Huang, kick them out!"
Little Huang rushed up to Old Lady Ruan and started barking wildly.
Grandma Ruan and Shao Lihua were so frightened that they huddled together, afraid that it would pounce on them and bite them.
"You brat, how dare you order that big dog to bite people! I, I'll sue you!" the old woman said, her lips trembling.
"Are you leaving or not!" Faced with such a shrew and scoundrel, Lu Siqiao had no choice but to resort to even more shameless tactics.
For a time, chaos erupted, and there was no peace.
Suddenly someone shouted, "Jova, your mother is bleeding!"
Lu Siqiao turned around and saw two lines of blood seeping from Luo Xiaoxue's pants. She rushed over and asked anxiously, "Mom, what happened to you?"
"Qiaowa, I'm going into labor!" Luo Xiaoxue cried, her face pale.
She was only seven months pregnant, which is clearly premature.
I was so angry because of Grandma Ruan and her daughter-in-law!
"Uncle and Aunt, quick, call my dad!" Lu Siqiao shouted to the crowd.
Soon, Lu Wenqing and his wife arrived and lifted Jiao Xiaoxue onto the tractor.
Lu Siqiao carried a large bag of maternity supplies out the door, climbed onto the tractor, and decisively said, "Uncle, don't go to the clinic in town, go to the city's People's Hospital!"
In the rush, I even forgot to close the door.
"Mom, are you in pain?" Lu Siqiao placed a thick quilt in the car and helped Luo Xiaoxue lie down, afraid that her water would break. She also told Luo Xiaoxue to bend her legs slightly, taught her to take deep breaths, and told her not to be afraid.
The Lu Wenqing couple were also moved when they saw it.
This child is so considerate!
"Mom, come on, have some water." Lu Siqiao took out a glass of mineral water from her spatial storage and fed it to Luo Xiaoxue.
Once the pain subsided, Luo Xiaoxue breathed a sigh of relief and grasped her hand desperately, saying, "Qiaowa, what if we lose the baby?!"
"No, your brother will be fine," Lu Siqiao quickly reassured her. "I'm here for you."
One minute later, the tractor stopped in front of the People's Hospital.
Lu Siqiao ran to the front desk and found a nurse, and immediately someone pushed a cart out.
"Uncle, could you please call my dad? I'm going to pay the bill now." Lu Siqiao arranged everything methodically.
Watching their little girl bustling around, Mr. and Mrs. Lu Wenqing were deeply moved.
When Lu Mingfeng and Third Master Lu arrived at the hospital, Luo Xiaoxue had been in labor for two whole hours and still hadn't come out.
"Dad, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of Mom." Lu Siqiao said, her eyes red and wiping away tears.
Lu Mingfeng had already learned the whole story from Lu Wenqing. He patted her head and said in a deep voice, "It's not Qiaowa's fault. It's Dad who failed to protect you."
Third Master Lu's expression stiffened, and after a long pause, he finally said, "The old woman is trying to drive the eldest son's family to their deaths!"
No one spoke.
They only cared about Luo Xiaoxue's life or death.
Lu Siqiao had a sudden idea and pleaded with Lu Mingfeng, "Dad, if the doctor asks you whether to save the mother or the baby, you must save my mother."
"I will work hard to earn money in the future to support you."
Lu Mingfeng, a dignified seven-foot-tall man, had tears in his eyes as he hugged her and said, "Silly girl, need I say more? Dad will definitely protect your mother. You are Dad and Mom's angel."
From afternoon until dark, the red light in the operating room went out.
A nurse carried the baby out of the operating room.
"Congratulations to Luo Xiaoxue's family, mother and child are safe and sound. The baby weighs 4.1 pounds and will need to stay in an incubator because it is premature."
Lu Mingfeng glanced at the baby in the swaddling clothes and hurriedly asked, "Where is my wife? Is she alright?"
"The rescue was timely. Apart from being weak, there's nothing seriously wrong. The baby will be wheeled out in a bit." The nurse smiled and took the child away.
Half an hour later, Luo Xiaoxue was wheeled out of the operating room.
Lu Mingfeng held her hand and said sincerely, "Xiaoxue, you've worked hard. The baby is healthy."
Luo Xiaoxue smiled weakly and reached out to Lu Siqiao: "Thanks to Qiaowa, Mom thanks you."
"Mom, just relax and focus on your postpartum recovery. Don't cry, it's bad for your health," Lu Siqiao said, her anxiety subsiding.
Seeing that Luo Xiaoxue had fallen into a deep sleep, everyone went to the balcony to discuss Shao Lihua's upcoming job at the soy sauce factory.
“Qiaowa, I know you and your third aunt don’t get along, but it’s not a solution for them to cause trouble every day.”
Lu Mingfeng scratched his head, annoyed, and said, "Let her do it, so she won't keep nagging. If she doesn't do a good job, we can just find a reason to fire her."
Lu Siqiao remained silent, and looked up at Third Master Lu.
Uncle Lu squatted on the ground, looking lost and wistful: "Your third aunt is a real worry. Who knows if she'll work honestly once she's in the factory? What if she causes trouble?"
"Food safety cannot be taken lightly," he sighed.
The two families clearly have a grudge, yet they still hire their enemy to work there. What if she spits in the food or, more seriously, does something unethical? Who can they complain to? The consequences could be devastating.
"Let's hire her, for a one-month trial period," Lu Siqiao suddenly thought of a solution and said coldly.
Master Lu opened his mouth: "Qiaowa, have you thought this through? Your third aunt isn't a very honest person."
Lu Mingfeng also looked dejected and said, "It's not right to invite them, but it's not right not to invite them either."
What I fear most is these interpersonal relationships; if you don't help her, she'll find every way to pick a fight with you, but she doesn't have the power to do so.
“Isn’t there Aunt Wang too? Tell her to keep an eye on things.” A sharp, cold glint flashed in Lu Siqiao’s eyes.
After discussing it for a while, Lu Mingfeng went to make a phone call to share the good news.
That evening, Cai Ming and his wife brought Cheng Ze to visit Luo Xiaoxue. Upon receiving the generous red envelope, Lu Siqiao felt a warmth in her heart and didn't know what to say.
He Yan shared feeding tips with Luo Xiaoxue, while Cai Ming called Lu Siqiao into the corridor to inquire about the details of Luo Xiaoxue's premature birth.
When Cai Ming learned that she not only didn't blame Old Lady Ruan and her daughter-in-law, but also wanted to hire Shao Lihua to work at the sauce factory, he expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, "What are you afraid of them for? If I refuse them to their faces later, and they still dare to cause trouble, I won't be polite!"
Little devils are hard to deal with.
Lu Siqiao said indifferently, "Only by completely extinguishing her thoughts can they prevent them from causing trouble."
"What do you want to do?" Cai Ming asked in return.
Lu Siqiao smiled slyly: "My third aunt is the most shrewd. If she knew that making chili sauce was profitable, she definitely wouldn't be content with working a regular job. Once she learns how to make it, she'll definitely go out on her own. If I give her the secret recipe, she won't bother me anymore."
"What?! You're going to give her the secret recipe!"
Cai Ming and Cheng Ze were both shocked.
