...
After entering the pharmacy, Mu Run sat down at the old doctor's desk and asked him to take her pulse.
"Young lady, are you pregnant? Or are you carrying... twins? Congratulations!" The old doctor chuckled, stroking his white beard.
Mu Run wasn't too surprised, after all, she had been thinking about it for a long time.
To her surprise, it was twins!
"However, these twins seem to be showing signs of miscarriage. I'll get you some medicine to help stabilize the pregnancy, and you should go home and rest for a few days."
"No! Doctor, I don't want this child. Please give me the abortion pills."
How could she, a rootless person adrift in a foreign world, raise a child? She didn't know how. So, the moment she confirmed her pregnancy, she made a decision immediately.
As for whose child it was, she didn't even consider it.
The old doctor looked at her and frowned. "Young lady, this is twins, and you're already four months pregnant. If you have an abortion, there will be two children."
“I know, you just explained it very clearly.”
"Aren't you going to consider it?"
"Not considering it."
Finally, the senior doctor considered it for a moment and said, "How about this, you go back and discuss it with your family first. Abortion is very dangerous, and you will need to have a short period of confinement after the abortion, which is no different from a normal postpartum period."
"No need to consider it."
"Sigh! I say, young lady, you should think about it again. These are two children. If they are twins, a boy and a girl, you will have both a son and a daughter, and your in-laws will value you more. More importantly, you will have a bloodline to carry on your family line, your closest relatives..."
The old doctor patiently and earnestly offered his advice.
Mu Run listened to his words, and at first her attitude was very firm, but slowly other thoughts arose.
...
About half an hour later, Mu Run finally came out of the pharmacy.
He was carrying two large bags of medicine.
The bag was for Yaoyao. Yaoyao was too thin, and her face was sallow. Her hands and feet were always cold at night. The doctor could tell from her voice that Yaoyao was weak and had been neglected by her parents. He prescribed some nourishing medicine.
As for her, she also took a bag of medicine.
It's for preventing miscarriage!
The old doctor was so persuasive that he managed to convince her to stop, and she ended up carrying a bag full of pregnancy-preserving medicine.
Actually, what touched her the most was just two words: family!
That's right, she was all alone. If she had these two children, there would be three of them, and she wouldn't be lonely anymore.
They also found a direction to survive!
Perhaps having these two little ones would bring her a lot of hardship and helplessness, but she decided to keep them!
That's settled then!
When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it.
The baby inside her seemed to sense her determination and began to move.
The feeling was subtle, yet it made her involuntarily reveal a gentle smile.
Not far from the pharmacy, there was a house for rent with a sign.
Mu Run's eyes lit up, and she knocked on the door...
Since you've decided to have the baby, you should have the best possible conditions.
The riverbed and garbage dump below are really unsuitable for raising a baby.
Moreover, when it gets cold in winter, Wang Yaozong's dilapidated one-and-a-half-room house becomes uninhabitable.
After renting the house, she bought a donkey cart and drove it back to Hedao Village.
She felt a sense of familiarity while driving the donkey cart. However, she was certain she couldn't drive a car, perhaps it was just an instinctive memory of her body.
Upon arriving at Hedao Village, Mu Run picked up Wang Yaozong and Yao Yao and took them to the county town.
The warm and cozy room, the soft new quilt, and the kitchen full of food left the two siblings speechless for a long time.
