From a distance, I saw the doctor talking to her mother, and then I saw her mother's hands shaking.
When he walked over and asked, he learned that the child was in danger and the pregnant woman needed to undergo a caesarean section. He took the pen from the mother's hand and signed his name without saying a word.
After receiving the consent form for surgery, the doctor immediately arranged the surgery.
Seeing her son sign so quickly, Mother Du couldn't help but complain, "I don't even know if it's a boy or a girl yet, why did you sign it?"
"Mom, it's already this time, and you're still worrying about whether it's a boy or a girl? Didn't you hear the doctor say that if we don't have surgery, the lives of both the adult and the child will be in danger?" Du Kang said unhappily.
After hearing what her son said, Mother Du stopped talking and just kept clasping her hands together, hoping that God would bless her daughter-in-law to give birth to a boy.
The operation took more than two hours before it was finally completed.
Soon, the door of the operating room opened, and Mother Du walked forward impatiently: "Doctor, has my daughter-in-law given birth? Is it a boy or a girl?"
The female nurse frowned as she listened: "The woman just had a caesarean section, why don't you take care of her first?"
"Nurse, are my wife and children okay?" Du Kang immediately asked with concern.
The nurse then said: "The operation was successful, the mother is fine, she just needs to rest well.
But because the baby was deprived of oxygen in the stomach for too long, he needs to be kept in an incubator for a few days.”
Seeing that the nurse was slow to tell the baby's gender, Mother Du hurriedly asked again.
This was not the first time the nurse had encountered a mother-in-law who only cared about the gender of the baby, so she immediately said, "Congratulations, you have a baby girl."
When she heard it was a daughter, Du's mother slapped her thigh anxiously and said, "How can this be a daughter? Shouldn't it be a son?
Doctor, you didn't replace my grandson with someone else, did you? "
The nurse got angry on the spot: "Auntie, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. We are a regular hospital, how could we do such an illegal thing?
Now in the delivery room, your daughter-in-law is the only one giving birth to a baby. If you don’t believe it, you can go and see.
Besides, what's wrong with giving birth to a daughter? Aren't you a woman? "
Mother Du didn't have the heart to argue with the female nurse. She immediately said, "Why put that girl in the incubator? Take her out for me now."
"That won't work. The child's condition is still very dangerous. An emergency may occur at any time. He must be observed in the incubator." The female nurse refused without thinking.
"This is my granddaughter. I say she should be discharged from the hospital, so you have no right to interfere." Mother Du even hoped that the girl would die so that she could have a second child in the future.
Du Kang couldn't stand it any longer: "Mom, what are you doing? I told you that the child needs to be hospitalized for observation, so don't make trouble for me here. Go and make something to eat. When Cuifang comes out, it's a good time to give her something to eat."
"I won't do it. She gave birth to a girl for me and wants me to serve her. It's a daydream." Mother Du now hated her daughter-in-law for not being able to conceive. How could she possibly take care of her?
As for what Yang Xinyu told her, that whether the baby is a boy or a girl depends on the boy, she never took it to heart.
In her opinion, this is a woman's business. If she can't give birth to a son, it's just because her womb is not working well. It has nothing to do with men.
"By the way, I forgot to remind you that the mother who had a caesarean section cannot eat for six to eight hours. Even if she is thirsty, you can only wipe her lips with a cotton swab." The female nurse explained to Du Kang. As for the old woman, she didn't even want to look at her.
What kind of people are these? Does a daughter mean she is not a human being?
She was nothing like the mother-in-law last night, who was concerned about her daughter-in-law's health the whole time and didn't care at all whether the baby was a boy or a girl.
Many female nurses are envious of her. Having such a good mother-in-law and such a good husband is what all unmarried women dream of.
But in reality, most mothers-in-law are as hateful as this old woman. What you encountered yesterday was an ideal, and what you encountered today is reality.
After saying that, she gave them some more instructions and asked them to pick up the mother and take her back to the ward in two hours. Then she turned around and went into the operating room without even bothering to look at Mother Du.
After the nurse left, Mother Du said to her son firmly, "Kang Kang, we can't keep this child. I will send her away after she is discharged from the hospital. I will let Cuifang give birth to a big fat boy for you in two years."
Seeing his mother making trouble again, Du Kang was a little upset: "Mom, please stop making trouble, okay? How could I throw away my own daughter?
If I really do this, am I still a man?"
"Why am I making a fuss? The country is enforcing family planning so strictly now. If you don't give this child away, you won't be able to have a second child.
If you don't give birth to a son, then you will have no descendants. How will you face your ancestors in the future?"
"This is all old thinking. Who says that without a son there will be no descendants? At worst, I can find a son-in-law who lives with us, and the child can take our surname." Du Kang looked indifferent.
Seeing her son's bad behavior, Mother Du was very disappointed: "How can that be possible? Since ancient times, men have been the ones to carry on the family line. I have never heard of women carrying on the family line.
I’m going to say this, if you don’t give your daughter away, then I’m not your mother, and you’re not my son anymore.” Her attitude suddenly hardened, and she looked like she was not willing to negotiate.
Du Kang was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. Wasn't this pushing him to death?
Two hours later, Cuifang returned to the ward. Mother Du had a stern face the whole time and didn't even look at her.
Only Du Kang was serving by his side. Even the deputy commander could take care of his wife meticulously, so he, as a man, could do the same.
In short, you must not leave any bad impression in front of the deputy division commander.
When Mrs. Qin saw that the baby hadn't come along for a long time, she asked curiously, "Where's the child?"
Mother Du felt sick when she thought about the fact that she had given birth to a granddaughter in the ward, but because she was the mother of the deputy division commander, she still responded coldly: "She is in the incubator!"
When she heard that the baby was in the incubator, Mrs. Qin hurriedly asked what was going on.
"It's because her stomach wasn't working well. Others were able to give birth naturally, but she couldn't. As a result, the baby suffered from lack of oxygen in her stomach. She needs to be kept in an incubator for a few days for observation." Mother Du pointed at Cuifang unhappily.
Cuifang was awake by now. She didn't dare to refute and could only lie on the hospital bed, wiping away her tears secretly.
“How can you blame your daughter-in-law? Everyone’s body constitution is different. Some can give birth naturally, while others can only have a caesarean section.
Fortunately, it's nothing serious. Medical technology is advanced nowadays, so the child will be fine." Old Lady Qin said matter-of-factly.
But Mother Du is still furious and won’t listen: “When we were giving birth, we all gave birth at home, and we never heard anyone say that we couldn’t have a baby.
In my opinion, she is just lazy and lacks exercise, which is why she couldn’t give birth at the critical moment.”
