"Mom, why can't I go out and play? I don't want to stay here, it's so boring!"
Before the gate was opened, Qu Li heard the voice of a child who was so aggrieved that he was about to cry.
The wife of the Earl of Zhongyong had tears in her eyes and choked up as she said, "Princess Chen, please forgive me for making a fool of myself. Cheng'er has been staying here ever since he became ill."
"Nothing!"
In fact, Qu Li does not agree with hiding when you are sick.
Only a heartless person would laugh at a sick person.
The courtyard door slowly opened, and Cui Cheng stared at Qu Li who was standing next to the wife of the Earl of Zhongyong with a pair of black eyes as clean and clear as stars.
"Mom, this sister is so beautiful!" Cui Cheng grinned, revealing a mouthful of glutinous teeth with missing front teeth.
Zhou's eyes were red.
My son was so cute when he was born. Who could have expected that he would get such a disease?
She had heard some gossipy servants in the Bo's house talking about Cheng'er before. She was always kind to others, but for the first time she got angry and beat and killed the gossipy servant.
After that, she was afraid that the servants in the mansion would say something hurtful to Cui Cheng, so she asked to take him to live in this secluded courtyard.
Cui Cheng was a child after all, so he could be controlled at first, but as time went on, his temper became worse and worse.
No one knows how many times she cried secretly in the silent night.
After hearing that Princess Chen was an excellent doctor and not only cured the Empress Dowager's headache, but also made Wang An and the wife of Duke Dingguo, who were in critical condition, safe and sound, she really had great hope.
When she saw Qu Li at this time, tears filled her eyes. She walked forward and bowed to Qu Li.
Qu Li's heart trembled, and he hurried forward to help her up.
"Mrs. Cui, there's no need to do this."
Zhou wiped the tears from her eyes and sobbed, "When Cheng'er was born, he was as delicate as a piece of jade, just like the boy sitting under Guanyin. No one could have imagined that he would have to endure so much at such a young age."
Cui Cheng was worried and tugged at Zhou's sleeve, "Don't cry, Mom! I won't ask to go out again!"
Zhou's tears burst out instantly.
The mother and son hugged each other and cried bitterly. The already depressing backyard was now even more shrouded in gloom.
Qu Li raised her chin slightly, forced back the tears, and looked at the wife of the Earl of Zhongyong who was also holding back her tears.
"Let Madam Cui calm down first."
"Excuse me." Lady Zhongyong was polite.
Because they were afraid that the servants would say something hurtful to Cui Cheng, there were usually no servants in the backyard. After Zhou calmed down, she personally served tea to Qu Li.
Qu Li looked at the wife of the Marquis of Zhongyong and said, "Madam, please take the young master downstairs to play for a while."
"good."
"When Madam Cui was pregnant, did the doctor diagnose twins?"
Zhou was stunned. "How did Princess Chen know this?"
Qu Li pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, the young master's illness should be parasitic twin."
She briefly told Zhou the reasons for the formation of parasitic twins, and Zhou was stunned.
"So, Princess Chen means that the baby in Cheng'er's belly is actually his brother or sister?"
"yes!"
"Then Cheng'er's belly is getting bigger and bigger, which means the child is not dead?"
"Only a mother can give birth to a child. How could the young master, who is so small, possibly give birth to a child?"
Zhou felt sorry for her child who became a parasitic twin for no reason, and she also felt sorry for Cui Cheng who had to endure so much pain and verbal abuse for no reason because of being a parasitic twin.
"Princess Chen, how can we remove the parasitic twin?"
"Operation!"
These two words were very common to Yu Quli, but to Zhou, a woman in the harem, they were not only unfamiliar but also frightening.
"Don't worry, I will examine the young master and develop a surgical plan. It will definitely not cause any harm to him!
As long as the parasitic twin is taken out, the young master will be able to recover and be like a normal child, able to run and go out to play."
Zhou seemed to see Cheng'er smiling happily in the future as she spoke. Although there were tears on her eyelashes, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
"I'll check him out later to confirm the condition of the parasitic fetus."
"I'll go call Cheng'er over right now."
Cui Cheng was brought over quickly, and he felt a little embarrassed when he saw Qu Li.
Qu Li led him into the room and gave him acupuncture, and Cui Cheng fell into unconsciousness.
She slipped into the space.
Goudan was lying by the Lingquan pool, his belly bulging from drinking.
Seeing her come in, he excitedly circled around her, wagging his tail.
She couldn't help laughing, and tapped its head with her slender fingers. "Take it easy, if you pee in my space, I'll make you into a dog meat pot."
Goudan whimpered angrily, squatted aside and didn't look at her.
Qu Li smiled slightly, took out a portable CT scanner, took an X-ray of Cui Cheng, and determined the size and location of the parasitic twin.
Outside the door, Zhou and the wife of the Earl of Zhongyong both frowned, their faces full of worry.
"Mother, do you think Princess Chen can really cure Cheng'er?"
"Cheng'er is already like this, it can't get any worse!"
The two put their hands together and prayed silently in their hearts.
Finally, the door opened.
Zhou and the wife of the Earl of Zhongyong hurried forward to greet them.
Both of them stammered, wanting to ask something, but afraid that the result would not be what they expected and they would be disappointed, so they looked at her nervously.
"This is a parasitic twin." Qu Li handed the CT film to them.
"Princess Chen, we believe you." Lady Zhongyong said solemnly.
"Although this is just a minor operation, any operation has risks."
Upon hearing this, Zhou's already worried face turned even paler.
"Cheng'er..."
She stumbled back a step, and Lady Zhongyong reached out to support her, "Be strong, you are Cheng'er's mother!"
"Don't worry, both of you. Just prepare as I say. The operation will be performed in three days!" Qu Li picked up a pen, wrote down a list of what he needed, and asked them to build a sterile operating room.
"I'll write another prescription to nourish the young master!" Qu Li said as he thought about building two more sterile operating rooms in the clinic in case of emergency.
Before leaving, she suggested that they raise a few small animals and decorate the room with brighter colors to make Cui Cheng feel less lonely and depressed.
The wife of the Earl of Zhongyong personally saw Qu Li off. When she returned to the courtyard, Zhou was standing by his bed.
"Mom, Cheng'er will be fine, right?"
"Even the Queen Mother believes in Princess Chen, so we should too!"
"But Princess Chen's reputation was so bad before, how come she suddenly became such a skilled doctor? And that film she just showed us, mother, could this Princess Chen be the reincarnation of some evil spirit?"
"How can you say that? Even if her transformation is incredible, just like An'er said, she is still a fairy!" Lady Zhongyong shouted.
