"This is the delivery room, please be quiet!" the nurse said loudly.
Some of the crowd quieted down, but there was still a lot of noise.
“I’m sorry everyone, this technology is still in the research and development stage and has not yet been tested, so it cannot be put into medical use.
But don't worry, maybe your wife can use it next time she gives birth." Liu Ankang's calm voice sounded.
"Didn't you just use it? It seemed to be working fine, so why are you saying it's not good?
Is this discrimination? Isn't your job as a doctor to cure diseases and save lives?
My wife has been in there for two days. Are we going to let them die?" the man shouted excitedly.
“The doctor will closely monitor your condition, and since you are here, you should trust us doctors.
Every technology will undergo multiple experiments before it is released to ensure a certain level of safety before it is promoted.
Forcing the technology to be used before it is mature will only increase its risks.
I just used it because we can bear the consequences ourselves. Can you also bear the consequences yourself?
If you can guarantee that you can bear any consequences of using acupuncture, then I can help you implement it immediately." Liu Ankang said.
"You are doctors, how can you let us bear the consequences?" someone whispered.
“Because we are doctors, we are responsible for the lives of our patients.
Every technology will be launched only after it matures, which is the responsibility to patients.
You have to trust the doctor's judgment!" Liu Ankang said in a resounding voice.
"Wang Daniu, where is Wang Daniu? Your wife has given birth." At this time, the nurse's voice sounded.
"I'm here, I'm here, it's born, it's born. My wife finally gave birth." The person who just said that his wife had given birth two days ago ran over excitedly.
"Hahaha, it's a big fat boy. No wonder it took so long to give birth. This kid must weigh about eight kilograms!" The man laughed as he shook the baby in his arms.
"Hey, hey, hey, the baby can't be shaken like that!" The nurse was frightened and snatched the baby away. "Go to the ward and wait. The nurse will teach you how to hold the baby."
"I'm sorry, I'm a pork seller and I can't change my habits right away." The man didn't get angry after being scolded and apologized with a smile.
"Okay, everyone, please disperse. It's not right to keep everyone here." The nurse took the opportunity to quickly disperse the people surrounding Liu Ankang.
As for Xia's mother and others, they had long since abandoned Liu Ankang and went to the ward to see their children.
The crowd dispersed, and only one woman stayed behind to see that everyone had left.
She quietly approached Liu Ankang and asked, "Doctor, we can take responsibility for the life and death of the mother ourselves. Can you give my daughter-in-law some acupuncture?" The woman said to Liu Ankang.
"My daughter-in-law's pregnancy is not looking good. The village midwives all said there might be two deaths.
My demands are not high, as long as my eldest grandson can survive." The woman looked at Liu Ankang expectantly.
Liu Ankang looked at the other person expressionlessly: "I'm sorry, my acupuncture method can only save one person, so I will only save the adult.
Also, even if the fetus is in an abnormal position, the hospital will arrange a caesarean section, and generally there won’t be two deaths.”
"I can't have a cesarean section, it's so expensive, I can use it to get my son another wife.
Besides, it will take three years after the laparotomy before I can have a second child, and my son is the only child in my family.
I was counting on my daughter-in-law to give birth to ten or eight children to continue the family line." The woman said with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Sorry, I can't do anything. Please make way." Liu Ankang said and left.
"Hey, doctor, doctor..." The woman was about to shout when the nurse behind her called for help.
"Who is Wu Cuihua's family member? The mother's fetus is in an abnormal position and cannot be delivered naturally. Please ask the family to sign to switch to a caesarean section." The nurse said to Wu Cuihua's husband.
The woman quickly ran over, snatched the pen and threw it on the ground: "You can't cut it open, you can't cut it open.
Caesarean section is unlucky, we want a natural birth, doctor, please help us, we want a natural birth."
"Auntie, feudal superstitions are unacceptable. Your daughter-in-law's fetus is in an abnormal position. If a cesarean section is not performed, both the mother and the fetus will be in danger.
Please sign quickly so we can prepare for the operation." The nurse explained to her patiently.
“We brought her here because we believe your doctor’s skills are better.
If we want to cut open the belly and take the baby out, why do we need to go to the hospital? Can't we just cut it open and sew it up?
My daughter-in-law wants a natural birth, and what you doctors need to do is help us solve the problem of how to help my daughter-in-law give birth to my grandson smoothly." The woman said loudly.
"Mom, Cuihua is in danger. Please stop making trouble here, okay?" Wu Cuihua's husband pleaded with his mother.
"What do you know? The hospital is trying to make money from us ordinary people.
Look at how much a caesarean section costs, you can have ten or eight children in the village.
Let's go, let's go. We can't keep this daughter-in-law anymore. Let's go home and I'll marry you another virgin girl." The woman pulled the man and was about to leave.
"Mom, Cuihua is my wife." The man yelled at the woman.
Then, while her mother was still dazed, she quickly signed the document. "Doctor, please help me. Please save my wife."
"I don't want to live anymore. My son has forgotten me now that he has a wife. I'm going to die!!" The woman sat on the ground, slapped her thighs and started crying.
Liu Ankang walked away and gradually put the noisy voices behind him.
When I walked into the ward, I heard laughter and joy inside.
Liu Ankang put away his cold expression and walked in slowly with a smile on his face.
"Look, his nose looks like mine! And his mouth, too.
"My eyes are like my sister-in-law's, my forehead is like my mother's, and wow, those thick eyebrows make me look just like my father." Song Jinxiu stared at the baby and assigned each of his facial features to her.
"What about me? What about me? How is it like me?" Xia Xingchen asked quickly.
Song Jinxiu looked at the baby carefully, then looked at Xia Xingchen, and then looked at the baby again.
Xia Xingchen even leaned closer to let her see it more carefully.
He shaved off his beard today just to welcome this new life.
"I see." Song Jinxiu said, "His teeth are most like yours."
Xia Xingchen looked puzzled: "Does he have teeth? Why don't I see any? Let me take a look."
After saying that, he was about to use his hands to open the baby's mouth, but was slapped away by Xia's mother.
"Go away, the baby is sleeping, don't wake him up." Xia's mother said in a low voice.
"I won't wake him up, I'll just take a look at his teeth." Xia Xingchen also said in a low voice.
Mother Xia rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.
Father Xia slapped him on the back of the head: "Are you stupid? Whose child is born with teeth?"
It's so shameful that such a grown man has no common sense.
