Chapter 461 I Believe in Her
Ina's vital signs are currently stable.
Just given the condition of the fetus, if this continues, it is only a matter of time before the mother’s body can no longer hold on.
After Gu Xixi looked at it, someone immediately brought her water for her to wash her hands.
But Gu Xixi quickly opened her cross-body bag, took out a bottle of pills, and put two pills to Ina's lips.
"Take it sublingually."
The old lady who was a servant seemed a little worried.
Ina opened her mouth and took the medicine without hesitation.
Then Gu Xixi took out the needle bag, unfolded it completely, and said with lowered eyes:
"This medicine contains some good stuff. It can help you keep your strength."
When everyone saw Xixi taking action, their eyes lit up. Could there be a cure?
Aunt Lin asked with some uncertainty, "Could it be possible to correct the baby's position by acupuncture now?"
Gu Xixi shook her head, "It was discovered too late, it can't be done."
She was not idle at all while she was talking, her right hand moved lightly up and down, pricking the acupoints with silver needles.
"Right now I can only give her acupuncture to prolong the intervals between her contractions."
"If we buy more time, maybe with a bit of luck, we can wait for someone who can really save our lives."
The fetus's hand comes out first. In this situation, if it were placed in a modern hospital in later generations, it would also be sent directly to the operating room for a caesarean section.
Not to mention the medical conditions in ancient times.
In the face of the current crisis, we can only make some seemingly impossible attempts, perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope.
As the saying goes: Give it your all.
Everyone looked at each other, waiting for someone to save them?
Could it be that besides Boss Gu, there is someone more powerful here?
Gu Xixi saw everyone's expressions and said, "It's not my master."
"Unfortunately this time, he had several critically ill patients on hand and couldn't leave."
She said directly and truthfully, "I asked Lu Jing to go get the military doctor."
"If everything goes well, it should be quick."
It turns out he's just a military doctor.
Everyone's mood went through ups and downs.
The military doctors of the Northwest Army were not good at gynecology and pediatrics.
Even the most skilled Doctor Bai, who was revered as a miracle doctor by the army, admitted that he was probably not as good as the most experienced midwife when it came to delivering babies.
In this situation where even Gu Xixi is helpless, will calling a military doctor help?
But at the same time, everyone believed that Gu Xixi would not do this for no reason.
So while waiting, everyone divided the work among themselves.
They boiled water, wiped the body and sweat of the woman in labor, and those who lived close to home went back to get some food.
Because Gu Xixi said that they would probably be busy later, and everyone was hungry, so how could they have the energy?
Around noon, the jujube flowers arrived.
She went to the courtyard to deliver food to Gu Xixi, and rushed over when she learned that something happened here.
Two cans of dumpling soup, one for Gu Xixi and one for Lu Jing.
The small oat noodle dumplings are stewed with various vegetable sauces to make a thick soup, and finally topped with golden egg flowers, which is full of color, aroma and taste.
The soup looks easy to eat, easy to digest and nutritious.
The old lady Beili glanced at Yina, hesitated for a moment, and begged Gu Xixi, "Can you give some to my master?"
"She didn't eat anything because she felt sick this morning."
Gu Xixi scooped out the dumpling soup with a wooden spoon and ate it.
She was really hungry and ate with big mouthfuls, enjoying the delicious food.
"no."
Everyone was a little surprised to hear Gu Xixi's refusal.
Then I heard Gu Xixi say, "It's better to get up early and not eat."
The old lady Beili was a little angry, but she didn't dare to show it because she had someone to ask for help.
Zaohua and others looked over quietly, wondering what happened to the usually generous Boss Gu today.
Aunt Lin understood better, and said to the old woman, "It's just a bite of food. Boss Gu is definitely not stingy."
"Look, Boss Gu just gave you such good medicine without blinking an eye."
The old woman looked up at Gu Xixi, a little dazed.
At this time, Yina spoke. For the first time, she spoke Chinese to the old servant, just to make everyone understand.
"Grandma, whether I am awake or asleep, dead or alive, you must listen to Boss Gu."
"You have to do whatever she says."
"Because I believe in her."
The old woman nodded in tears and agreed.
Yina turned her head to look at Gu Xixi and smiled, "I'm sorry, grandma is my wet nurse, she loves me and she didn't mean to go against you."
Gu Xixi thought about how Aunt Zhang treated her and protected her without any principles.
His eyes softened, "I understand."
She also explained, "The medicine I gave you is enough to replenish your energy. You don't need to eat anything else."
"On the contrary, if you eat other food, it may affect the treatment later."
Yina could actually laugh, "Although I don't understand, I believe you."
Gu Xixi said, "Don't talk for now, close your eyes and rest."
After waiting for a while, the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground was heard outside.
Aunt Lin showed a look of surprise, "It must be Miss Lu who has returned. I'll go and take a look!"
After a while, everyone heard Aunt Lin's surprised voice coming from outside:
"Doctor Bai? Why are you alone?"
"Where's Miss Lu?"
Doctor Bai dismounted and took down the two large medicine boxes on the horse's back, saying:
"The girl said that the situation was extremely urgent and she was riding a mule slowly, so she asked me to come and rescue people first."
"I'm not here, I'm in a hurry."
"Hey, who has the emergency? What are the symptoms?"
As Aunt Lin led Doctor Bai into the room, she said, "The fetus is in an abnormal position! If we delay any longer, the baby's hand will come out!"
Doctor Bai was stunned and stopped suddenly.
"What? A woman giving birth?"
Aunt Lin was also startled, "You don't know?"
Bai Lang felt bitter in his heart, "I just came out of the medicine room, and the general's men told me to take the medical equipment outside the military camp."
"As soon as I got out of the checkpoint, the horse was ready for me, and then the girl riding the mule urged me to hurry up."
"I'm so confused, how can I have a chance to ask for clarification?"
"No." Doctor Bai shook his head, "I can't cure this disease."
He lowered his voice and said, "It's so dangerous. Even if you ask the palace's gynecologist to come immediately, it will be difficult to save her!"
Seeing him turning around and trying to escape, Aunt Lin quickly grabbed him.
"You can't leave!"
"Have you forgotten that it was the general's idea to ask you to make this trip?"
“So no matter whether you can cure it or not, you have to go in and see the patient!”
Doctor Bai turned his head stiffly, his expression full of despair.
The room was not big, so everyone inside could hear the conversation between the two clearly.
The old lady Beili's face turned pale and she was frightened and sad.
Ina herself looked calm.
She had already thought of the worst possible outcome, so what was there to fear?
Doctor Bai came in and saw the silver needles on Yina's body. He frowned and said, "Don't you have a doctor? Why are you looking for me?"
He looked around but couldn't find anyone who looked like a doctor.
Until Gu Xixi stood up and said, "Hello, Mr. Bai, may I have a word with you for a moment?"
Naturally, some secrets cannot be heard by the people of Beili.
"I heard that Mr. Bai is good at treating arrow wounds. He can cut open the wound, remove the arrowhead, clean it, and then sew it up. Finally, use your special wound medicine to fight inflammation, cool the blood, remove the dead tissue, and regenerate new flesh."
