Su Nianxue's face suddenly turned red, and she naturally understood his unspoken meaning.
If they buy a bed now, people will laugh at them for being too much of a troublemaker!
Gu Yanbai found the bed quite displeasing.
It doesn't look sturdy at all. Sometimes he doesn't dare to use too much force, for fear that one day it won't be able to withstand the pressure and will fall apart.
Let's wait a bit!
After a while, when it's not so conspicuous anymore, he'll get a new bed.
Throw away this eyesore of a bed.
These past few days, Su Nianxue has come to realize that this bed is not sturdy enough; otherwise, why would anyone's new bed creak like that?
It seems Wang Lanhua cut corners again!
But that didn't stop her from teasing him; she mimicked his tone and snorted through her nose.
"I'm Gu Yanbai, why would I care about what others think?"
Seeing how perfectly she imitated it, Gu Yanbai's lips curled into a slight smile, and he pinched her cheek.
"Hmm, not bad, you've learned it quite well."
Lao Tzu truly doesn't care about other people's opinions; isn't it just that he's afraid you'll be too sensitive?
How about we stop fixing it? I'll go buy a new bed right away!
I'm not afraid of people laughing at me anyway.
He threw the hammer in his hand to the ground and turned to walk away.
Su Nianxue suddenly grabbed his arm tightly.
"No, no, you should continue fixing it."
I won't interrupt anymore.
"I'm leaving, I'm leaving, okay?"
If such rumors really spread, how will she ever be able to go out again?
She rushed out the door, afraid that if she walked too slowly, Gu Yanbai would stop repairing it.
Gu Yanbai watched her frantic retreating figure, a slight smile playing on his lips. He filled the rivet with some small pieces of wood, then picked up a hammer and firmly embedded the bed frame.
That night, Gu Yanbai shook the headboard, and the unpleasant creaking sound didn't come out anymore.
He raised an eyebrow. "Want to give it a try?"
"Go to sleep!" Su Nianxue rolled her eyes at him, not even bothered by how tired she was.
They're going to the county town tomorrow, so they have to get up early!
The thought of going to the county town made her expression even more complicated.
Now that things have come to this, we can only take it one step at a time.
The two got up very early the next morning.
After quickly packing a few things and having a quick breakfast in town, I headed straight to the county.
Gu Yanbai took her directly to find that old doctor.
The old doctor had white hair and beard, a gentle expression, and an aura of tranquility about him.
Su Nianxue placed her wrist on the pulse pillow and let the old doctor take her pulse.
The clock on the wall ticked away, just like their anxious hearts at that moment.
The old doctor remained calm and collected, taking her pulse while asking her some questions.
Su Nianxue no longer cared about being shy and honestly told him about her situation.
Finally, the old doctor stopped taking the pulse, quickly wrote out a prescription, and said,
"You have some blood and qi deficiency, and some cold has entered your body. Take some medicine for a while and you'll be fine after some conditioning."
Holding the prescription, Su Nianxue asked in a daze, "Doctor, do you mean I... can have a child?"
The old doctor smiled and nodded, "Your menstrual cramps are caused by catching a cold during your period."
You should take a few doses of medicine to regulate your body and you'll be fine!
Just remember this for the future: avoid touching cold water during your period, and definitely don't go into the fields.
You absolutely must remember this.
He glanced at the young couple and cheerfully offered his advice.
No one knew that Gu Yanbai's fist, which had been clenched tightly since he entered the room, only loosened at this moment.
He finally let out the breath he had been holding in.
"Thank you, doctor. I will keep a close eye on her from now on and will never let her go to the fields again."
The old doctor stroked his gray beard. "Alright."
I noticed you live quite far away, so I prescribed you a few extra doses of medicine.
"Come see me again after you finish these medications, and I'll adjust the prescription for you."
"Okay! Thank you, doctor." Gu Yanbai readily agreed.
"But after taking this medicine, your wife won't be able to get pregnant for the time being. I'm making that clear to you first."
Gu Yanbai waved his hand, "It's alright."
As long as she's okay, I have no problem with the baby being born later!
Gu Yanbai communicated with the senior doctor throughout the entire process.
Su Nianxue clutched the prescription tightly in her hand, immersed in the joy of having it back after being lost.
She almost thought she was going to lose everything.
It turned out to be just a false alarm.
"Gu Yanbai, I'm fine, I..." She smiled, but her eyes were filled with tears.
"Okay, let's go to the pharmacy to get the medicine." He wiped her eyes and thanked the doctor again solemnly.
Su Nianxue also quickly thanked the old doctor.
Soon, the two left the hospital carrying a large bag of medicine.
With one worry gone, both of them felt completely relieved.
"Come on, let me show you around the county!"
"Okay!" Su Nianxue looked at him with a smile.
Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?
Despite saying that, the smile on his lips never actually disappeared.
Su Nianxue leaned closer to him and whispered, "You're beautiful, more beautiful than flowers!"
Gu Yanbai's smile widened. "Then I'll show it to you for the rest of your life."
I remember everything you said yesterday.
Su Nianxue, you said…
Su Nianxue blinked, looking completely innocent. "I don't remember saying anything."
"Su Nianxue, you've learned to be shameless now?"
Gu Yanbai really wanted to tickle her a few times, but looking at the figures coming and going on the street, he suppressed the thought.
