Xue Zhi turned his head to look at Zheng Xiu, and saw that she looked normal and still had a smile on her face, and the coldness on her face was much relieved.
Su Qingru was also a little scared. She had never dealt with the powerful and wealthy in her life. Yesterday, Xue Zhi seemed to be very kind and let her try her best. He then told her about Zheng Xiu's condition - how could this pregnant woman with prenatal depression be cured if she didn't cooperate with adjusting her mood?
From a doctor's point of view, she felt that she was right.
But when she met Xue Zhi's domineering eyes, she felt a little weak, and belatedly remembered her identity as a member of the Duke of Qing's Mansion... She couldn't help sweating on her forehead and her face turned pale.
Zheng Xiu pulled Xue Zhi to sit down, smiled softly, and looked at him reproachfully, "Look how scared you are."
Xue Zhi said to Su Qingru with a dark face, "Did I tell you that you must report this to me first? How can you make the decision on your own?"
Su Qingru quickly stood up and apologized, "I was reckless, please forgive me, Second Master!"
Zheng Xiu also helped from the side, "Doctor Su told me that my illness is not serious, but I need to cooperate with her. She can cure it."
Hearing that Zheng Xiu's emotional illness could be cured, Xue Zhi was very excited. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief and did not blame Su Qingru. He turned to her and confirmed, "Can you cure it?"
Su Qingru was not 100% sure at first, but now she could only nod and say, "Yes, I can cure it."
Xue Zhi nodded, his face eased, "Then you write a prescription now, I'll ask
someone to get the medicine." Su Qingru said, "This doesn't require medicine. I have drawn up several plans. Would you like to take a look first?" After saying this, she felt that she could not explain it clearly under Xue Zhi's pressure, so she took out the one she had written and showed it to him.
Xue Zhi read it quickly, and for a moment he didn't quite understand how these strange methods could cure Zheng Xiu's illness.
After reading it, he put down the paper and said, "You try your best." In his heart, he still didn't trust the young female doctor in front of him.
The food had been on the table for a while. Seeing that they were only concerned with talking, Zheng Xiu asked Bai Zhu to set the table and said with a smile, "Eat first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Xue Zhi said, "You guys eat, I'll go get the things she wants."
Zheng Xiu asked Su Qingru to eat with her first.
Perhaps thinking that she was not the only "foreigner" in this era, Zheng Xiu's appetite was better than usual, and she ate half a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup. Su Qingru also ate some, and stopped when she saw that she had put down the table.
Su Qingru's head was the same as what she wrote, that is, she needed an extremely comfortable soft couch.
This was not difficult to do, and it could be picked up in the Hao Yetang warehouse.
Su Qingru told Minghui to do it, and Minghui had someone carry one out from the storeroom soon.
At this time, Zheng Xiu and Su Qingru had just finished their meal, and had just sat in the room for a while and talked for a while. The couch was brought out and tidied up, and Su Qingru asked Zheng Xiu to lie on it.
Zheng Xiu lay down on it as she asked, and Su Qingru found a few travel essays and prose of contemporary masters from the books she brought with her, and sat beside the couch and read them softly and gently to her...
Her voice was pleasant to the ears, and the slightly boring travel notes sounded like telling a story in her mouth.
Zheng Xiu did as she said, closed her eyes, relaxed her body, and described another scene in her mind according to the words she read...
Xue Zhi watched for a while, and saw that Zheng Xiu really relaxed her body, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Right now, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince were at loggerheads, and it was a time of no leisure. It was not easy for him to ask for leave, and he had to go back after a hurried trip. He told Minghui and others to take good care of Zheng Xiu, and he didn't even have time to eat, and hurried back to his post.
After he left, Su Qingru also breathed a sigh of relief. The second master of the Duke of Qing's Mansion was really scary. When he glared at her with a dark face, he looked like he wanted to eat people.
Zheng Xiu listened to her reading for a while, and slowly fell asleep.
Su Qingru put down the book, waved to Minghui who was standing by, and the two of them left the inner room.
She still had a lot of things to do, such as changing the interior decoration to be warmer and more elegant, and also to have a rockery landscape that could make the sound of flowing water.
After Minghui wrote it down, she immediately asked someone to do it. Soon all the furnishings in the room were changed.
Zheng Xiu only slept for more than half an hour, and when she woke up, she naturally found that the furnishings in the room had changed. Many of the furnishings that were put away during her pregnancy were taken out again. She still liked these things, but Princess Guihe came to visit before and said that her house was too plain, so she asked people to send a lot of rich things, and all of them were replaced.
After Su Qingru finished instructing the maid, she continued to watch over her. When she saw that she had woken up, she smiled and said, "I asked someone to replace the decorations in the room with the ones you liked in the past. Do you like them?"
Zheng Xiu smiled and nodded, and took Su Qingru's hand and went outside. The maid outside was still busy, but her hands and feet were very light and there was no sound at all.
The layout of the room changed, especially the several New Year pictures of many children and good fortune posted on the door were removed. Zheng Xiu didn't know why, but
she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. While the room was busy, Su Qingru sat with Zheng Xiu and chatted about family matters. When Xue Zhi was not around, she became talkative again. Because she was used to the world outside, she talked endlessly about things outside.
Zheng Xiu listened to the various human emotions outside, just like listening to a storytelling, and half a day had passed unknowingly.
Su Qingru's method was very detailed, such as letting her lie down and listen to the story, putting the rockery landscape with the sound of flowing water next to her as music, and making homemade flower-scented essential oils for Zheng Xiu to massage, etc. These are some simple relief methods commonly used in modern psychological counseling.
Zheng Xiu had seen a lot of them in film and television works, but she just pretended not to know and let her do it.
But compared to these, she liked listening to Su Qingru talk more.
Half a month passed like this, and Zheng Xiu's mood was indeed much better, especially after they got to know each other, Su Qingru would tell her everything, including her family matters. Life was not easy for her family. Although her ancestors were well-known in front of the emperor, they fell into decline after being exiled. Her father died early, and her family relied on the support of her uncles and brothers. Her uncles and brothers were good people, but they didn't make much money, so the lives of several families in the family were not very good in the early years. Fortunately, she "got a taste" a few years ago, followed her and studied for a few years, studied medical books for a few years, inherited her ancestors' legacy, opened a small medicine stove, and supported the family...
Zheng Xiu compared her own situation with hers, and felt that as an outsider, her situation was much better. Although there were always conflicts in the family, they were all small things, and she never had to worry about food, clothing and expenses. What else could she be dissatisfied with? She began to cherish the days ahead even more...
Su Qingru was an intern doctor in modern times. She rotated through various departments and was about to be assigned to a new department and become a formal doctor, but she died in a medical accident. She learned a lot of things, and now she just put them into practice on Zheng Xiu. After psychological relief, Su Qingru also thought of a pet therapy.
Think about it, in modern times, people are under a lot of pressure and will have some emotional illness. But raising a pet can make things better. For
a family like the Duke of Qing's Mansion, it is not difficult to raise a pet. As soon as she proposed it, Xue Zhi brought back a three or four-month-old snow-white poodle from outside.
Zheng Xiu had only raised Ji Lei for a few days in her life, but had never raised a pet properly. She immediately fell in love with the puppy.
Ming Hui and others did not dare to let her play with the puppy, but only dared to hold it in front of Zheng Xiu for her to see.
The puppy was naturally carefully selected. Not only was it good-looking, but it was also very cute. When it saw Zheng Xiu, it stuck out its tongue and wagged its tail.
Zheng Xiu asked someone to feed it with less salted dried meat. After it took a bite, it stood up and bowed, which made everyone in the room laugh.
Although pregnant women are advised to reduce contact with these livestock, cats and dogs, Xue Zhi only hopes that Zheng Xiu can get better. Seeing that she is smiling more, he said nothing and asked Minghui and others to serve her carefully.
Zheng Xiu named the little lion dog Tuan Tuan, and every morning she would let Minghui bring Tuan Tuan to play with for a while.
Xue Shao and Xue Mian heard that there was a dog here. The two children liked dogs. Seeing that Tuan Tuan was well-behaved and cute, they liked him very much. Every day after school, they would come to play with him.
In the past, Xue Zhi was very cautious about Zheng Xiu's illness and only asked them not to bother Zheng Xiu.
After Su Qingru came, she realized that proper fun and entertainment would only be good for Zheng Xiu's condition, so Xue Zhi did not stop them and let them go.
After Zheng Xiu got up every day, she would play with Tuantuan for a while, and then listen to Su Qingru talking about interesting things outside. In the afternoon, she would take a nap, and then listen to Su Qingru reading for a while, and do massage. In the evening, the whole family would get together to talk and play with the dog, and they didn't feel that life was difficult at all.
Zheng Xiu's mood improved, and the whole family breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon it was May, and the weather was getting hot. It was almost time for Zheng Xiu to give birth.
She gained some weight, and her belly became rounder.
Su Qingru accompanied her to make small clothes and shoes for the child. Both of them were very good at needlework, but they just did it for the sake of good luck.
