Song Sichen couldn't help but twitch his lips as he listened to her conversation with the aunties.
The anger that had just begun to emerge disappeared instantly when he caught a glimpse of Jiang Sui's beautiful face.
He clenched his glass and sighed helplessly.
Forget it, I won’t bother with her.
As the wine was toasted one after another, everyone not only gave their blessings but also praised Jiang Sui.
"A few days after the wedding, Sui Sui will be able to officially start work at the health center."
"Our village finally has a female health worker. From now on, all of us women will enjoy the blessing."
"It's just right that today is Sui Sui's big day, so let's all wish you a prosperous life, a thriving career, and lots of money!"
Jiang Sui liked to hear this.
She was a career-oriented person to begin with, and she was a little drunk as she drank too much, so she simply talked about her future career plans.
"I know everyone's difficulties, and I have always been thinking about this matter in my heart."
"I am grateful to the village for giving me the opportunity to be a health worker. After I get the job, I want to work hard to train more female health workers."
Aunt Miao happened to be sitting nearby. She just couldn't stand Jiang Sui stealing the show.
She couldn't help but curl her lips and whispered something sour.
"From what I hear, it seems that men won't have to go to the clinic to see a doctor anymore?"
She deliberately spoke in a low voice, but she didn't expect that Jiang Sui still heard it.
However, Jiang Sui didn't bother with her. She smiled faintly and responded calmly.
"Men can get treatment just as well. When there were only male health workers in the clinic, didn't everyone get treatment just as well?"
"When there are more female health workers in the future, the medical conditions of the whole village will be improved, which is a good thing."
Aunt Fan and the others nodded frequently and responded:
"That's right. Besides, aren't Wang Zheng and Yin Yucheng still here? Can't the man just ask them to take a look?"
Men are not fools. Can the medical skills of Wang Zheng and his barefoot doctors compare with Jiang Sui’s?
Aunt Miao was so choked that she couldn't utter a word, and finally she could only shut her mouth in embarrassment.
Once the topic was brought up, it couldn't be stopped for a while.
The aunties and grandmas drank a lot of white wine and were all a little drunk. As they talked to Jiang Sui, they couldn't help but feel sad and held her hand and sighed.
"Giving birth used to be such a pain. It was like going through the gates of hell every time. It was not uncommon for women to die in bed due to complications during childbirth."
"When the pain came, my stomach hurt as if I was run over by a car, but I had to endure it because there were no female doctors in the countryside, and there was no place to treat the tears I got during childbirth."
Every woman here has suffered some illness from childbirth.
Even Aunt Miao, who had always been particularly unconvinced, fell silent when faced with this topic.
Mrs. Lu is the youngest among these people and was also one of the first to get an IUD.
When talking about contraception and birth control, her tone was full of bitterness.
"I originally thought that getting an IUD was just like getting a tooth filled. It was just a small piece of plastic in the body and it wouldn't have any impact."
"I never expected that this would be the beginning of my misfortune. Before the IUD was inserted, I was in good health and could work without any difficulty every day."
"But after getting the IUD, my health got worse and worse. Not only did I have stomach pain all day, but my periods were also irregular and I had bleeding from time to time."
The uterus is one of the most important organs for women. If there is a problem with this part, the impact on the person can be imagined.
Jiang Sui put away the smile on her face when she was chatting and joking with everyone, and listened carefully to everyone's troubles.
In the world where she worked, having an IUD inserted was already a thing of the past.
Jiang Sui has been working as a doctor for many years, but she has seen very few women who come to the hospital specifically for IUD removal surgery.
This major event that affected women across the country seemed to have been buried in the past along with the headlines in the newspapers and gradually faded from people's sight.
It was not until today, when she came into close contact with these women who had undergone IUDs, that she realized how much trouble and impact this had caused them.
Abortion and contraception are not so convenient in this era. In order to respond to the policy of "eugenics and good parenting", the majority of women have to adopt this method of contraception that will harm themselves.
Jiang Sui felt very distressed when she thought about it, and at the same time, she secretly made up her mind to work hard to change this situation.
At the beginning, everyone was chatting happily, just complaining about the troubles and worries they encountered in daily life due to childbirth.
But I didn't expect that after I had a place to vent these thoughts that had been pent up for a long time, my emotions would become uncontrollable.
The more they talked, the more outrageous it became. Sister Fang couldn't hold it in any longer and she started sobbing quietly while drinking.
She is usually quick-tempered, good at makeup and styling, and is famous for her warm heart. Everyone in the village who sees her praises her.
But it is such a person who suffers a lot of grievances at home.
"We women have a hard life. In my life, I'm only in my early 40s and I've already given birth to four children."
Not to mention the physical pain she suffered as a result of this, Sister Fang also had a very hard time hiding from place to place over the years in order to avoid being discovered.
The pressure from all sides was already huge. Not only did her husband and family members not show any understanding, but they also made matters worse by blaming her for not being able to give birth to a son.
"What era is this? Those bigwigs say 'Women hold up half the sky', and slogans like 'It doesn't matter whether you have a boy or a girl' are written on the wall, but they are determined to have a boy."
"I can't remember how many times I've been blamed for this, but the thing is, I have no say in whether the baby is a boy or a girl."
