Chapter 296 Fortunately, there is Zhichun
"Doctor Jiang, how is my Xiaoyan?"
"She's in labor. We need to make her some medicine to keep her from getting pregnant. But I'm short of donkey hide gelatin. Send someone to the city to buy some. Four ounces is best, but two ounces is fine too. Better quality, preferably. Hurry."
Liang Mingliang stood up suddenly and said, "I'll go right away!"
"Wait a moment," Xu Zhichun said quickly, "I think I have some good donkey hide gelatin at home. Wait a moment, I'll go get it now."
Xu Zhichun ran all the way back.
The warehouse space contains donkey-hide gelatin of excellent quality.
After Zeng Xiaoyan became pregnant, Xu Zhichun specially found many medicines for maintaining and nourishing the fetus and collected them together just in case. He also read many various medicinal materials used for maintaining and nourishing the fetus in medical books and collected some of them.
I didn’t expect to actually use it.
Judging from Doctor Jiang's expression, everything should be fine as long as he uses donkey-hide gelatin to boil the pregnancy-maintaining medicine.
If things don't go well, she has ready-made and effective modern pregnancy-preserving medicines. If you have no other choice, you can still give it a try.
Xu Zhichun simply took half a pound of the best donkey-hide gelatin, and also packed a bag of white peony root, angelica root, and licorice, all of which were of high quality.
She just heard that the prescription that Doctor Jiang mentioned had all of these ingredients.
Xu Zhichun hurried back, "Doctor Jiang, I brought all the herbs from my home. Can you see if these can be used?"
Doctor Jiang quickly examined them one by one and exclaimed delightedly, "Great, great, Zeng is lucky! This donkey-hide gelatin is of top quality. Furthermore, these white peony root, angelica root, and licorice root are all better than what I bought. I'll use this!"
He hurriedly prepared the medicine. Liu and Zeng Xiaojuan had already lit a fire and quickly put the medicine on the stove.
The first dose of medicine couldn't wait that long, so after boiling it for about five or six minutes, Doctor Jiang asked her to first take a small half bowl, let it cool quickly, and then feed it to Zeng Xiaoyan in small sips. The medicine continued to boil for about another half hour, and then she was asked to take the next half bowl.
Zeng Xiaoyan took the medicine. After more than a quarter of an hour, Doctor Jiang took her pulse again and said that she was fine and asked her to have a good rest.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Aunt Liang thanked her again and again, and the villagers dispersed after hearing that everything was fine.
"It's okay now."
"Amitabha, thank goodness, this is a life saved."
"That's right."
"Xiaoyan is really lucky. Zhichun happened to have those medicines."
"Yeah, I heard that medicine is very expensive. Who usually has this at home? Only Zhichun can do it."
"Why"
The rest are all our own people. After we breathe a sigh of relief, of course we have to settle the accounts that need to be settled.
Previously, because everyone was worried about the fetus in Zeng Xiaoyan's belly, no one had the extra time to think about anything else except praying desperately for her and the baby's safety.
Now that we have relaxed, everyone is furious.
Zeng Xiaojuan still feels scared when she talks about it. She feels sad, panicky and guilty.
". I saw Xiaoyan coming and was worried that she would get angry and have a miscarriage, so I hurried to help her sit down. But Nanny Zhu pushed me hard from behind, and I bumped into Xiaoyan. I, I..."
Yang Ming patted her back gently, silently comforting her.
Zeng Xiaoyan looked at her and said, "Don't cry, sister. I don't blame you. We wouldn't have fallen anyway. It was Cuixiang who tripped me."
Zeng Xiaojuan was stunned.
She didn't realize Cuixiang had tripped her sister afterward. She thought it was because of her own collision that they both fell. Even if it was Nanny Zhu's fault, she couldn't forgive herself.
Xu Zhichun, Aunt Liang San and others were terrified when they heard this.
"God bless me! God bless me! May the ancestors of my Liang family bless me!"
It's no wonder that Aunt Liang put her hands together and prayed repeatedly. Xu Zhichun and Nanny Qin Qing all felt that Zeng Xiaoyan was very lucky to be fine.
You have to know that Nanny Zhu and Cuixiang did not hold back at all, and they were determined to make Zeng Xiaoyan have a miscarriage.
Liang Lizheng said coldly, "Mother, call the eldest son and his wife, and let's take the old woman and the maid to Zeng's house. Third son, you will help your wife go home later. Third son's wife, go back and lie down well, take the pregnancy-maintaining medicine on time, and ask your second sister-in-law to make you anything you want to eat. Don't move around."
Zeng Xiaojuan said hurriedly, "Don't worry, Mingliang and I will send Xiaoyan back together and I will take care of her."
Zeng Xiaojuan is meticulous and attentive, and more reliable than their own son. Qiao'er is also well-behaved and doesn't make any noise. Liang Lizheng and Aunt Liang San are relieved and express their gratitude.
Xu Zhichun: "Uncle Lizheng, Auntie, I'll go with you. Before we go, should we interrogate that old woman and Cuixiang first?"
Liang Lizheng nodded in agreement: "I think we should ask them first, so we can talk to the Zeng family when we meet them."
Aunt Liang San wanted to rush into Zeng's house with a big stick and beat up all the Zeng family members. "Then ask them. If they dare not tell me, beat them first."
Nanny Qin Qing: "Madam Liang, if you can trust me, why not let this old servant help you question me."
Aunt Liang San quickly said, "Okay, we are grateful for your help."
Although Nanny Qin Qing was a servant, she came from a wealthy family. She was well-mannered, knew when to act and when to speak, and had her own way of speaking and doing things. No one in the village dared to look down on her. Many smart families even treated her especially well, promised her benefits, and asked her to help teach their girls and learn something.
You have to know that these are things that you could not learn even if you spent money in the past.
Nanny Qin Qing certainly has some interrogation skills.
Xu Zhichun also hurriedly said: "Since you have troubled me so much, Madam, please ask first, and we will leave later."
"OK."
In less than two quarters of an hour, Nanny Qin Qing pried open Cuixiang and Nanny Zhu's mouths.
Zeng Mingzhu.
When this name came out, Aunt Liang and other members of the Liang family were speechless. Zeng Xiaoyan almost got excited again and had to be calmed down by Xu Zhichun.
Although the scandal caused by Zeng Mingzhu and his wife spread all over the city, it did not spread to Liangjia Village. After all, no one in the village would go to the city for no reason and hear about it by chance.
Xu Zhichun, Aunt Zhu'er, and even Yang Xiaoan, Liang Xiaoman and others certainly knew about it, but no one said a word in the village.
Firstly, there is no need for that. Secondly, even if Zeng Xiaoyan severed ties with the Zeng family, she still has a blood relationship with Zeng Mingzhu. Once this matter gets out, there may be people with ulterior motives who wish others a bad life and make malicious associations and comments.
Xu Zhichun and others would certainly not let this happen.
So, when they heard Zeng Mingzhu, Aunt Liang and others thought for a long time before they knew who she was - oh, it was the eldest daughter of the former in-laws' family.
Aunt Liang was both angry and puzzled. "I heard that the eldest daughter of the Zeng family had already married into a wealthy family in another province. Xiaoyan has nothing to do with her now. Did she hate Xiaoyan so much because she was pregnant that she sent someone to cause trouble?"
"She is so cruel. If something goes wrong..."
