Sister-in-law Yulan frowned, glanced outside, and got up to leave.
She lowered her voice and said, "Sister Zhao, your daughter-in-law is asleep, please keep your voice down."
Granny Zhao didn't care at all and continued to speak loudly.
"What's wrong? It's like everyone's had a baby before. When I was her age, the fourth child was already born..."
Liu couldn't stand it anymore in the inner room. She and He Tiantian exchanged a glance and then went out.
Liu advised, "Sister-in-law, I think you should send someone to the mine to call your eldest son back. Sun's condition... is not good."
It could easily lead to someone's death.
Liu was trembling inside, and dared not say anything too harsh.
Liu and Granny Zhao were roughly of the same generation, so Granny Zhao could listen to some of what Liu said.
However, Granny Zhao hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation. "Let's wait a bit longer. Taking leave at the mine will also result in a deduction in wages."
Liu pursed her lips and said nothing more.
The village's only barefoot doctor had also left; all he could do anyway was take pulses.
He didn't know much about childbirth either.
Sun didn't know when she would wake up again, and the house needed someone to stay with her for a moment.
Seeing Zhao Pozi's carefree and unreliable attitude, Liu Shi and Yulan's sister-in-law dared not leave and could only sit at the door and keep watch.
He Tiantian returned to her room and opened the online store to search for information on how to save Sun Shi.
But after spending a long time, it seems that no good solution has been found.
Unless you can find a good obstetrician-gynecologist.
There aren't any in this village, but what about in the city?
Instead of wasting time here, we should hurry up and send Sun to the city; there might still be a chance for her to survive.
He Tiantian bought surgical scissors and some disinfection and hygiene supplies from the mall.
Maybe, just maybe, it will come in handy.
With a solemn expression, she returned to the Sun family home and shared her thoughts with Granny Zhao.
Without a second thought, Granny Zhao immediately refused.
"No, that would cost so much money to go to the city! What if we can't find a good midwife?"
He Tiantian felt that what she had just said was like talking to a brick wall.
She suppressed her anger and tried her best to keep her tone calm.
"You have all the money Xiao Lü and Xiao Lan received from selling themselves, right? That money is more than enough to hire a doctor! Now your eldest daughter-in-law's life is in danger. If you stop her and something happens, how can you live with yourself?"
Granny Zhao didn't want to spend that money; she wanted to save it for her third and fourth sons to get married.
The third and fourth sons are almost in their twenties, and because their family is poor, they haven't been able to find a good daughter for them.
"Let's talk about it later, let's see how Mrs. Sun is doing first..." Granny Zhao said evasively.
Liu and her sister-in-law Yulan were speechless as they listened, and Liu felt even more indignant.
Why is this old woman Zhao so heartless, with her daughters-in-law giving birth one after another?
If it were her, she wouldn't be able to treat her daughter-in-law like that.
Human life is at stake! This old woman Zhao is really taking her daughter-in-law's life too lightly.
It was noon, when the sunlight was at its strongest.
Several people were taking turns trying to persuade Granny Zhao to pay for her daughter-in-law to go to the city to hire a doctor.
As they were talking, Mrs. Sun inside the house stirred.
