Chapter 190 The Evil Mother-in-law
Mother-in-law Meng Que’s words made Yun Qiao very angry!
She didn't expect that Mother-in-law Meng Que would refuse so bluntly, and she was even unwilling to give her face or pretend.
Yes, it is true that a mother-in-law has no obligation to help her daughter-in-law take care of the children, but didn’t your daughter-in-law just have surgery and can’t move at all?
In this situation, even if a stranger saw it, he would not feel sorry enough to come over and help, right?
Yun Qiao felt a headache when he saw Mother-in-law Meng Que refusing to cooperate and showing an evil mother-in-law attitude. Unfortunately, Jiang Ling, the woman's supervisor, was not willing to help and persuade her, and there was no one to help.
Yun Qiao had no choice but to change his mindset and tried to persuade him, "Auntie Dong, aren't you looking forward to the birth of this grandson? If you don't go to the hospital, your grandson will starve. He is the only child of your Dong family, the root of your Dong family. How can you bear to see him starve?"
As expected, Grandma Meng Que hesitated for a moment, but soon made up her mind.
She sneered, "That's unacceptable. The child is Meng Que's own, how could she let her own son starve?"
Yun Qiao explained tiredly, "Auntie Dong, didn't I just tell you? Little Sister Meng just had her period, and there's this long cyst on her belly. She can't even move. How is she going to feed the baby without someone to help her?"
"It's not that big anymore. Just let the child lie on your chest and wrap him up." Grandma Meng Que waved her hand disapprovingly: "That's enough. Don't nag me anymore. If I say no, it's no."
Mother-in-law Meng Que was determined to refuse going to the hospital. After saying that, she went straight into the kitchen. Yun Qiao was helpless.
At this moment, Wang Ying packed up the delivery bag and came out from the west room of the main hall. She said directly to Yun Qiao, "Xiao Ye, since you have brought Jiang Yuren's message, your mission is completed. Whether she is willing or not is up to her. Don't tell her too much, or she will be blamed."
The mud houses in the countryside were not soundproof, so a conversation in the yard could be heard clearly in the inner room. Wang Ying also heard everything they said in the inner room.
Yun Qiao couldn't help but say, "I don't want to talk to her anymore, but Jiang Ren is still in the hospital. If she doesn't come over, how will Jiang Ren come back tomorrow night?"
"Don't worry about it. I'm still here. You, a little girl, don't need to worry about so much."
Wang Ying reached out and touched Yun Qiao's little head, and smiled gently, "You've been busy all afternoon, come back to the clinic and rest for a while."
Wang Ying's gentleness warmed Yun Qiao's heart. She looked back at Wang Ying and asked, "Teacher, what about you? It's getting dark, aren't you going home?"
"I need to find your company's Political Commissar Zhao." Wang Ying said with a smile, "Send someone to take me home after I find him."
"Okay." Yun Qiao nodded: "Then I'll go back."
"Go back." Wang Ying waved at her and turned to go to Instructor Zhao's house.
By this time, it was already dark. Yun Qiao passed by the cafeteria on his way back to the clinic. The lights were on in the cafeteria, and a shadow of a person was moving on the paper-covered windows.
Yun Qiao touched his flat belly, turned around and went into the cafeteria first.
She was lucky. Although it was past mealtime and the big pot dishes in the cafeteria were sold out, she happened to meet the canteen cooks eating, including the cook team leader Lin Shengnan and her son Chang Sheng.
When she asked her why she had just returned from the field office and had not eaten yet, Lin Shengnan warmly invited her to have dinner with her.
Chang Sheng also diligently moved a stool for her: "Sister Yun Qiao, please sit down."
Unable to refuse the enthusiasm, Yun Qiao stayed.
The cook prepared soy sauce fried rice for dinner that day, and Lin Shengnan served Yun Qiao a bowl.
Yun Qiao took it and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Lin Shengnan sat down in her seat and asked Yun Qiao, "Doctor Ye, did you just come back from the hospital?"
Yun Qiao had a mouthful of rice in his mouth and was embarrassed to open it, so he nodded.
"Has Xiao Meng given birth? Is she still alive?"
News spread quickly in the countryside. Within just one afternoon, the news of Meng Que's difficult labor spread throughout the entire company, and everyone was very concerned about her.
Yun Qiao quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and replied, "Little Sister Meng is not alive. She gave birth to a fat boy weighing 9.7 jins."
"Wow! Nine pounds and seven ounces!" The cooks were all stunned.
"What a fat boy."
"She's so fat, no wonder Xiao Meng couldn't give birth with her small body."
"Yes, Sister Meng has a small frame, and the baby was too big, so it was difficult to give birth." Yun Qiao said, "This shows that when you are pregnant, you still have to control your weight. You can't just eat too much and take too many supplements. It's not good for adults or children."
"We know it's bad for adults, but why is it bad for children?" someone asked, puzzled. "Aren't fatter children better? They're healthy and easy to raise. If they're too small, they're useless and hard to raise."
"A baby weighing over eight pounds is considered macrosomic. Macrosomic babies are more likely to suffer from hypoglycemia at birth, and prolonged hypoglycemia can easily cause brain damage." Yun Qiao explained, "So it's best to keep a baby's birth weight under eight pounds."
"So that's how it is."
"Been taught a lesson."
"It's good to have a doctor in the company. We can learn a lot by chatting when we are free." Lin Shengnan's words immediately made everyone laugh, and she lavished compliments on Yun Qiao as if they were free.
Yun Qiao felt embarrassed by the praise and immediately increased the speed at which he ate his rice.
After dinner, Lin Shengnan took the initiative to send Yun Qiao out and asked her, "Doctor Ye, the frostbite cream you made last year was very effective. Will you continue to make it this year? I want to buy one."
"Let's make it." Yun Qiao thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll make a batch if I have time in the next two days. You can come to the clinic to pick it up in a few days."
Lin Shengnan nodded: "Ye."
After saying goodbye to Lin Shengnan, Yun Qiao returned to the clinic.
The first thing Yun Qiao did after entering the house was to light up the kang, add a basin of hot water, take off his shoes and socks, and soak his cold feet in it.
The heat flowed upwards along the meridians in his feet and spread to his limbs and bones. After a while, Yun Qiao felt his cold body being warmed up.
There was a knock on the door, and Lu Xun's voice rang out from outside: "Doctor Ye, are you in the room?"
"Yes." Upon hearing this, Yun Qiao immediately took his feet, which were soaked red by the hot water, out of the basin, wiped them dry with a foot cloth, quickly put on socks and came out of the cubicle.
"Come in, the door is not locked."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xun pushed open the door and walked in.
"Doctor Ye, are you still using your leather gloves? If you don't need them for a day, could you lend them to me?"
After Lu Xun finished speaking, he explained, "I received a temporary mission and have to take someone to the field office. However, I just washed my leather gloves, and the threads are drafty and can't withstand the cold wind, so I can only come to pick you up and use them."
Yun Qiao asked, "Are we sending her to the hospital for Grandma Meng Que's treatment?"
