Over the years, most of the doctors who came to see her had this expression, so Mrs. Zhong had gotten used to it: "Dr. Su, my health has been like this all these years, so just tell me what's wrong."
"Madam Zhong, did you experience a difficult childbirth?" Su Ruojin asked.
Madam Zhong nodded. This wasn't exactly a secret: "When I gave birth to Jin'er, I suffered a severe hemorrhage and almost lost both of us, but fortunately, I was saved in the end."
It was because of this difficult childbirth that Jin'er was born weak and sickly. She could only walk at the age of two, but she always had problems with her legs and feet, and she could no longer walk when she was ten years old.
Mrs. Zhong has been blaming herself for this, feeling that she hadn't taken good care of her health, which had affected her child.
"Yes, the residual toxins from your childbirth have not yet dissipated, which is why you are weak now."
"What did you say? Residual poison?" Madam Zhong didn't react for a moment.
"Yes, your difficult labor was caused by poisoning. This poison will increase bleeding during childbirth, which can easily lead to massive hemorrhage and the death of both mother and child," Su Ruojin said truthfully.
As for why Madam Zhong was poisoned during childbirth, that's beyond my control.
Women in wealthy families would use all sorts of despicable means to win favor, and Su Ruojin had heard of many such schemes even if she had never witnessed them herself.
Just like Lin Zhengshan's backyard, besides Zhao Jiao, there were three concubines. Every concubine would miscarry for various reasons once she got pregnant. Su Ruojin didn't believe that Zhao Jiao wasn't involved.
Upon hearing this, Madam Zhong's eyes instantly reddened, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
Who is it?!
Who exactly wants to harm her and Jin'er?
Thirteen years have passed, a full thirteen years, and she still didn't know that she had been poisoned back then.
Seeing this, Granny Zheng hurried over, gently patted Madam Zhong's back, and whispered, "Madam, getting your health back in order is the most important thing right now."
Madam Zhong also came to her senses and controlled her emotions, but her voice was still trembling slightly: "Dr. Su, can the poison in my body be cleared?"
If not...
Madam Zhong dared not think any further.
Su Ruojin answered readily: "Yes, but the poison has been in the body for too long, so it's more troublesome and takes longer to remove."
Madam Zhong has been taking care of her health over the years, so her physical condition is in relatively good shape, making it easier to clear away the remaining toxins.
Madam Zhong looked at Granny Zheng, both of them filled with excitement.
Granny Zheng asked cautiously, "Now that Madam's health has recovered, will she be able to conceive again?"
When my wife had a severe postpartum hemorrhage, she was saved with great difficulty. The doctor said that her body was damaged and she could no longer conceive, which was a great worry for her.
The lady and the master are deeply in love. If they can only have Miss Jin'er as their child for the rest of their lives, their offspring will be too few.
Madam Zhong looked at Su Ruojin nervously; the question Zheng Mama asked was also the one that concerned her the most.
This is also why, even though she knew that her dowry maid had taken advantage of the opportunity to climb into the master's bed, she was still willing to let the master elevate Songdong to the status of a concubine.
She was unable to have children and didn't want the old man to lose the Zhong family line because of her.
“Of course it can be done,” Su Ruojin replied as she opened the medicine box.
Mrs. Zhong is not yet thirty years old. If she can get her body in good condition, what difficulty would there be in having another child?
"Mrs. Zhong, please lie down on the bed. I'll give you acupuncture." Su Ruojin said, taking out her acupuncture kit.
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I'll go right away, I'll go right away." Madam Zhong's eyes welled up with tears as she excitedly grasped Zheng Mama's hand.
After thirteen years, a doctor finally said he could cure her illness.
She can still have children...
Regardless of the outcome, she is now willing to believe in Su Ruojin.
It's better to have hope than despair.
