Du Yuehai glanced coldly at the Gu family and was about to get up to call Doctor Du.
Gu Yufeng once again grabbed Du Yuehai's arm and cried bitterly, "Yuehai, we have been married for ten years, how could I still lie to you?
I haven't had my period for two months. I have eaten several kilograms of mountain red these days. I am sure I am pregnant with a boy this time.
I have been to the health center and the doctor said I am pregnant. Can it be true?
What does the village doctor know? Just let me come back! I will definitely live a good life with you in the future."
Du Yuehai pried Gu Yufeng's arm apart and strode towards the village clinic.
Gu Yufeng's mother got up from the ground, put her hands on her hips, rolled her eyes and said, "I said Yufeng is pregnant, and I said she is. How could I lie to you? You old Du family are so cruel that you don't even want your own grandson. If my Yufeng feels pregnant, I will see what you will say."
After a while, Du Yuehai came over with Doctor Du, and Gu Yufeng stretched out her arm generously.
She held her head high and said, "Uncle Du, I've been pregnant for more than two months. The doctor at the health center has checked me out and there's absolutely no mistake.
Please take my pulse carefully to see whether I am pregnant with a boy or a girl.
I really like to eat sour food. I have eaten a lot of pickled cabbage, pickled cucumbers, and mountain red. I think I must be a big fat boy."
Du Wenshan took her pulse for a while, then looked at Gu Yufeng in surprise. "Don't talk for now. Open your mouth so I can see your tongue."
Yufeng's mother asked anxiously, "Doctor Du, what's going on? Is my Yufeng pregnant?"
Doctor Du's eyes flickered and he shook his head, "Looking at your pulse, you're not pregnant, but you do have something growing in your stomach, a malignant tumor.
If I go back and eat well and take good care of myself, I can probably live another six months to a year. If I'm fast, I can live three months at most."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Gu Yufeng's mother opened her mouth so wide that she was in a daze for a long time.
Gu Yufeng was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat, "Impossible, I'm very strong, how could I have a cancer?
You old thing, I doubt you know any medical skills at all, you are just a charlatan."
Hu Mingyue and Yu Qingmin were also among the crowd watching. Yu Qingmin said hurriedly, "Uncle Du's medical skills are well-known throughout Hongqi Town. Many people from other places come to him for treatment. How could he be a charlatan?"
Zhuzi's wife smiled and said, "When I was pregnant with my little bastard, it was Doctor Du who delivered me.
I had a difficult labor when I gave birth to the stinky egg. Doctor Du made a decoction for me and I gave birth to the stinky egg quickly.
Yufeng, how can you doubt Dr. Du's medical skills? I still suggest you go to a big hospital! Maybe if you see him early, he can save your life.
Some women in the village felt that Gu Yufeng didn't have much time left to live, and they felt very sympathetic towards her. They all advised her to go to a big hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
Gu Yufeng's sister-in-law and sister-in-law looked at each other, and her sister-in-law said, "Sister, you can't go back to your parents' home now that you have this serious illness. We can't live like this anymore.
I told you to stay at the Du family, as we don’t have the money to pay for your medical treatment.”
Gu Yufeng's mother rolled her eyes at her two daughters-in-law and asked in a trembling voice, "Doctor Du, my Yufeng really has a malignant tumor in her stomach. Doesn't she have much time left?"
Du Wenshan said expressionlessly, "Her pulse is indeed very strange, different from that of ordinary pregnant women. Based on my experience, it is nine out of ten possible reasons. This should be correct."
Gu Yufeng's face was pale, and she kept wiping the cold sweat from her forehead with her sleeves. "Doctor Du, are you mistaken? If I had a malignant tumor in my stomach, why don't I have any pain or itching in my stomach, and there's no poisonous blood flowing from my lower body!
I remember Junhuan's grandmother had a malignant tumor. She was always bleeding from her lower body and it also had a foul smell. Unlike her, my body is clean!"
Gu Yufeng's sister-in-law's eyes lit up and she interrupted, "I know about this. At that time, we just said we couldn't see her, and Junhuan's uncle was an officer in Beijing, so he took the old lady to a large hospital in Beijing.
"The old lady's uterus was removed after surgery at a major hospital in Beijing, and she's still alive. Why do you say my sister can't be cured, Doctor Du? I think you must be mistaken."
Doctor Du glanced at Gu Yufeng and said calmly, "If you don't believe me, you can go to a big hospital. I've already told you that judging from the pulse, it's that of a malignant tumor."
Gu Yufeng's legs were shaking like a sieve. She quickly grabbed her mother's hand and said, "Mom, is it because of the medicine you asked me to drink? Didn't you say that drinking this medicine would cause the same symptoms as pregnancy?
Did the medicine change my pulse, causing Doctor Du to mistakenly believe I had a malignant tumor?
Yufeng's mother was also frightened. She continued to ask anxiously, "Doctor Du, I gave Jinfeng a few doses of herbal medicine, and the doctor said that after drinking it, it was like being pregnant.
I couldn't even take his pulse, and these prescriptions cost me five dollars!
Is it because of this decoction that my Jinfeng's pulse showed signs of a malignant tumor?"
When the onlookers heard what Yufeng's mother said, they were shocked by the shamelessness of Gu Yufeng's family. Everyone started talking at once and accusing the Gu family of being shameless.
"The Gu family is so shameless. They can think of any dirty tricks, even resorting to tricks like faking a pregnancy."
"Exactly. If you ask me, I really don't want a daughter-in-law like Gu Yufeng. She's always like a troublemaker, always looking for trouble."
Du Yuehai glanced at Gu Yufeng with disdain and said, "Gu Yufeng, I knew you were making trouble again. Don't say anything. Come with me to the commune today to get a divorce."
Gu Yufeng couldn't care about anything else at this moment. Her focus now was whether she had a malignant tumor and whether she could survive.
She fell to her knees in front of Du Wenshan and said, "Grandpa Du, I beg you to tell me the truth. Do I have a malignant tumor in my stomach, or has my pulse changed due to the medicine I took?
I’m only 30 years old and I haven’t lived enough. I don’t want to die! "
Du Wenshan smiled and said, "Gu Yufeng, you told the truth when I tested you briefly. When I felt your pulse, it was obviously different from that of a pregnant woman.
The pulse condition is obviously caused by taking fake pregnancy drugs. If I don't say so, will your family tell the truth? You have fooled the honest and kind Du family members.
Let me advise you that physical illnesses are easy to cure, but if your conscience is damaged, no medicine can cure it."
When Gu Yufeng heard what Doctor Du said, she was so excited that she burst into tears and immediately started cursing, "You damn old man, what does it have to do with you if I took the fake pregnancy medicine? You just can't stand seeing me and Yue Hai reconcile, right?
You ruined my good fortune, what good will it do you? If Yue Hai doesn't want me anymore, I won't be able to live anymore. I'm going to fight you!"
