"You miscarried, there's nothing we can do..." Haitang said, having already taken care of the pregnant woman's safety; miscarriage was simply impossible.
"No, it's...it's my youngest son..." the female cried, while the orc beside her looked somewhat grief-stricken. Haitang looked at him with a puzzled expression.
The female was in poor health, and after drinking the medicine brought by Dongfang Long, she fell into a deep sleep. Haitang only learned the whole story after asking the beastman, and her heart sank.
“Since that child is weak and was weaned after only one month of breastfeeding… do you think the child can survive?” Haitang then realized that the female had given birth to the little beastman a few months ago.
The females are relatively weak and need to be carefully cared for. The problem is that the females become pregnant and wean quickly after a month, so there is not enough milk for the children, and the children can only eat other things.
The mother was also feeling unwell during her pregnancy and paid less attention to the baby. Unexpectedly, the baby developed a fever yesterday. The mother was not in good health and stayed in bed without going to see the baby. The little female in the house doesn't understand much.
Thinking her younger brother was asleep, the female only looked at her youngest son after she regained her senses. Seeing his cold body, she was so shocked that she started bleeding heavily. The little beastmen and the female were terrified and cried loudly.
When the orc returned, he hurriedly carried his wife to see the baby, only to find that both children had been lost. Upon hearing this, the orc said, "I didn't want this either, I never expected it to happen..."
Unexpectedly, it happened. The problem is that in this era, there's no such thing as not wanting children. The female's body is already weak, and giving birth to a child greatly depletes her vitality. She can't withstand the strain of childbirth, so she neglects her younger son.
Upon hearing this, Haitang sighed, prescribed medicine for the female, and instructed the beastman to take good care of her. She also gave the beastman some pills and told him to take good care of her. The beastman nodded.
Carrying her female off, Haitang's expression was somewhat complicated. The backwardness of this era led to this tragedy, and Haitang knew that this was not the first time.
She had heard of similar stories before, but today's was only because the female was also bleeding heavily, which is why she was brought to Haitang. Normally, it would have been impossible for her to be brought to such a bloody scene.
Haitang couldn't eat anything. She said a few words to Dongfang Long, went to her room to get her things, and then went out. Dongfang Long followed her immediately when he saw her, and Haitang didn't chase him away.
I was just going out to deal with some things, and I thought that out of sight, out of mind would be better. But after seeing it, I felt a burning pain in my heart, and I was so upset that two lives were lost.
This wasn't an unavoidable tragedy; it was something that could have been easily avoided. She had heard about it before and felt saddened by it, but nothing was as devastating or shocking as what she witnessed today. She wanted to try and see if she could change things.
