"Dad Chu, is a C-section just making an incision in your stomach, taking the baby out, and then stitching your stomach up?"
As Wang Yueyue spoke, she gestured on her own body.
"Yes, that's right. Qiaoyun, my main concern is that your body might not be able to handle a natural birth. But the decision is yours; I'm just offering a suggestion."
"Okay, brother. I'll talk to Junzi about it. I'm a little scared about using a knife."
"Hmm, it's okay, there's still time. You two can discuss it first."
After the two of them went back to the front yard, Ding Qiunan asked with some concern, "Li Chu, is it really okay to have a C-section? I heard that natural childbirth is better for the baby."
Listen to this, and this is someone who works in a hospital. Although they are not doctors in front-line departments, they are still exposed to these things every day.
Even they have doubts about cesarean sections, so it's no wonder that ordinary people don't want to choose this option when giving birth.
“Yes, you’re right.” Li Chu nodded. “Indeed, natural childbirth has its advantages. First and foremost, it helps the mother recover better. Secondly, it allows the baby to adapt to the external environment quickly. Moreover, the squeezing and stimulation can help the baby’s alveoli develop better and make breathing easier.”
However, Yueyue, your mother is different. First of all, she is an older mother, and secondly, her body is not as healthy as that of ordinary mothers. I am really worried about letting her have a natural birth.
Your mother gave birth to you more than 20 years ago; she had already narrowly escaped death at that time.
Wang Yueyue fell silent. If you had to compare her mother with the little sister in her belly, her mother would definitely be the most important one.
"Dad Chu, I'll go and try to persuade my mom."
"No, no, no, let your dad and mom discuss it themselves. It's not the right time for you to say too much. Don't forget, the baby in your belly is here to compete with you for your father's and mother's love, even though you already have your own child."
This peculiar perspective left Ding Qiunan and Wang Yueyue, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, stunned. It took them a long time to understand what it meant.
"What are you all chatting about here?" The living room curtain was lifted, and Wang Ziwen appeared in the doorway.
"Brother-in-law, come in and sit down. Yueyue, pour your uncle a cup of tea."
"Why did you only come back late last night?"
"Don't even mention it. We almost couldn't get back before the New Year. There was heavy snow there, and the planes at the airport couldn't take off at all. We waited for a whole week. Yesterday, they finally managed to stop for a while, so we rushed off. If we had left an hour later, I would have had to spend the New Year there this year."
"Where have you been? Why is it snowing so heavily?" Before the question was even out of her mouth, Wang Ziwen waved her hand and said, "It's a secret, just pretend I didn't ask."
"Well, it's fine now that I'm back. I went to the Northwest. A comrade who dedicated himself to the country collapsed on the front line. The local medical conditions are relatively backward, so the higher-ups transferred me there. After all, I'm more convenient to travel and don't need those Western medical examination equipment."
This is the benefit of traditional Chinese medicine. It doesn't matter if you have electricity or not, or even if you have a table or a bed. No matter how difficult your conditions are, as long as I still have my hands, I can treat you.
What about Western medicine? Let's not even talk about going to remote areas. Even in the city, if a hospital says the power goes out, how many doctors will still be able to treat you?
"How many times have you been to Northwest China?"
"This is the second time. Last time we went there after an old comrade. By the way, brother-in-law, have Uncle Wang and the others been to the teahouse? They've been delayed several times because of last-minute things."
"I couldn't go. We had planned to go at the beginning of this month. I heard that we had reported it to the bureau. But the day before I was supposed to leave, there was a brawl at the Shichahai ice rink. One person died on the spot, another died in the hospital, and more than a dozen were injured. Now the bureau has just rejected the trip."
"Goodness, now that life is better, these young people really have nothing better to do than eat their fill."
"That's right. I think the previous policies were good, and these people should all go down and receive some education."
Wang Ziwen felt sorry for her son and daughter-in-law. Because of this incident, the young couple worked overtime every day, and they both came home with dark circles under their eyes. The city's detention centers were almost full.
"Sigh, well then we'll just have to wait and see during the New Year. Hey, Qiu Nan, haven't we discussed bringing Uncle Wang and Uncle Wu over for the New Year?"
“How could there be no discussion? We took the children and Junzi with us that day, but the two old men disagreed, saying it was too much trouble and that they would stay there.”
If it weren't for the fact that her sister and brother-in-law couldn't go to the nursing home, Li Chu would have liked to send the whole family there to spend the New Year with the old man.
"And what about Wang Lao Er? What did he say?"
"He will be taking his wife and children with him this year."
"That's more like it."
"Have Wenhui and Xiaoyi already gone back to Uncle Chen's place?"
"Yes, it happened yesterday. I told her that she would go to her maternal grandmother's place on the second day of the Lunar New Year."
"Okay, it's convenient for them anyway."
"Brother-in-law, isn't Xiaojuan going back to her parents' home this year?"
“Your sister persuaded her that day, and she finally agreed to go back for a visit on the second day of the Lunar New Year. She didn’t want to stay at home, saying she would go back in the morning and come back for lunch.” Wang Ziwen shook her head with a wry smile.
Having a daughter-in-law who doesn't like to visit her parents' home is a bad thing; in fact, it means she doesn't want to contact her parents' home at all.
"Xiao Chu, why are there rumors these past few days that our area is going to be demolished?"
Wang Ziwen suddenly remembered what was being said in the alley these past two days.
“Yes, I’ve heard about it too.” Ding Qiunan nodded in agreement.
"Don't listen to that nonsense outside, there's absolutely no way we'll be demolished here." Li Chu waved his hand.
"Then why do you think people would spread such rumors?" Wang Ziwen was still somewhat puzzled by the demolition rumor.
"I don't know about that, but don't worry, we definitely won't tear this place down."
It's not worth demolishing here. The person who was initially interested immediately ran as far away as possible after hearing about the height restriction. Their sights have already been set on the east side, or even the east side of the station.
However, she hasn't given up on that large three-courtyard house.
She also found out some information through connections, and now she knew who the house belonged to.
However, she has no idea where to start, so she is still holding back.
However, her every move was observed and remembered by the section chief surnamed Liu who accompanied her on the inspection.
He's now just waiting to see if he can get a big favor done for him.
Each abacus bead was moved very clearly.
However, this is only natural. Since they are not familiar with each other and are not related, who would want to offend someone for no reason without some benefit?
