Chapter 135 Can't Have Children
Guo was scolded by Chen Cuihua and hurriedly ran away.
But she didn't give up. The next day, she secretly came to the village again and hid in the shadows to inquire about it.
I finally understood what Chen Cuihua meant by "little miracle doctor".
"Sixi, your aunt has so many vegetables that she can't finish them all. Take a few with her."
"Sixi, my back has been hurting a lot these past few days. Can you take a look and tell me what's wrong?"
"Sixi, is your master busy today? When can I go without having to wait in line?"
"Brother Sixi, what herbs do you want us to collect today?"
Sixi, Sixi, Sixi isn't a pitiful little thing, he's a hot commodity.
That's great! With such a capable woman like Sixi, her man will definitely love her.
...
In the Lu family's courtyard, several women were laughing and chatting happily.
Tian Qiao'er wore her newest clothes and had Hei Dan accompany her; she was nervous being alone.
"Oh, Sister Tian, you're here?" Feng Xiaowan greeted.
"Yes, I'm here."
"Black Egg, quickly get your mother a stool."
Hei Dan carried a wooden stump to the work area and said, "Mom, I'm going home to get a straw mat. This wooden stump is too hard."
Everyone laughed.
"Raising a son like Heidan will surely bring you a life of luxury."
Tian Qiao'er agreed, saying that was indeed the case.
Everyone says being a stepmother is tough.
That's what everyone told her when she first married into the family.
She was afraid of being talked about, so she didn't dare to care much about Heidan and didn't like him either.
A dirty little brat who eats whatever he wants.
But I found out later.
Being a stepmother isn't that hard.
If you treat a child without a mother well, he will treat you like his own mother.
Faced with everyone's laughter, Hei Dan said proudly, "My mother gave me a formal name, Yao Zu, Zhang Yao Zu."
"Yaozu, what a good name! Hahaha, your mother is counting on you to bring glory to the family!"
"Little Yaozu, why does Auntie see green smoke coming out of your head?"
Black Egg quickly went to touch it.
Everyone laughed again.
Tian Qiao'er was no longer nervous, and sat down to learn how to cut medicinal roots and pound herbs.
Xiao Huan looked up at the room with the window open.
I saw Qiaoxiu standing by the window looking out again.
Xiao Huan waved to her happily.
They used to play together a lot when they were little, but I never expected that she would stop going out later.
But Qiaoxiu didn't even smile.
She wouldn't have forgotten her, would she?
"Sister-in-law Feng, what illness does Qiaoxiu have?"
"She got hit on the head by her father!" Feng Xiaowan said angrily.
"But it's alright, your sister Qingqing will heal her."
The girls immediately felt sorry for Qiaoxiu.
After Lu Qingqing finished treating three women from other villages, another unfamiliar woman came in.
"doctor."
The woman's gaze was quite obvious.
Lu Qingqing, used to this, asked, "What illness do you need?"
"My husband and I have been childless for many years and we want to find out what the problem is."
"If you want to see a doctor, both of you should come together. Childlessness isn't necessarily a woman's problem."
Since only a woman came, Lu Qingqing took her pulse first.
"You have no problem."
"You mean it's my husband's problem?" The woman raised an eyebrow.
"I didn't say; we'll have to investigate to find out the specifics."
The woman's gaze turned strange.
"How do you examine a man? Can you tell by taking his pulse?"
Lu Qingqing looked at her expressionlessly: "I don't need to tell you how the examination will be conducted, but the consultation fee needs to be explained first. For men's diseases, it's one hundred taels, no bargaining!"
The woman smiled expressionlessly.
"Then we look down on them."
"Dr. Lu's price is too high."
Lu Qingqing nodded: "Your consultation fee is one tael."
"What? A pulse diagnosis costs an ounce! Are you even more skilled than Doctor Lu in town?"
"One tael!"
“You, Miss Lu, actually I didn’t come here for a medical consultation today. I know I’m not sick. I came here for my son, my son, Sixi.”
Guo thought that saying this would make Lu Qingqing look at her differently, or at the very least, waive the consultation fee.
To everyone's surprise, Lu Qingqing showed no mercy whatsoever.
"One or two taels! Hurry up and pay the consultation fee, there are other people waiting to see the doctor."
Indeed, more people have arrived outside.
"How could you be like this! I told you I'm Sixi's mother!"
"Sixi has no mother. When he was three years old, his mother abandoned him and remarried. Do you want the whole village to come and help you remember?"
As Guo listened to Lu Qingqing calmly state the facts, her face showed embarrassment.
She took out a handful of copper coins and placed them on the table.
"That's all I brought."
Lu Qingqing glanced at it and saw that it was only worth about twenty or thirty coins, which was far from enough.
“Miss Lu, you should know the quality of your medical skills. My husband also had two sons, so he is not sick. Don’t try to raise your price.”
Guo meant that Lu Qingqing's medical skills were inadequate.
Lu Qingqing also understood what she meant.
Her husband had two sons, but they don't have any now, right?
She had already heard from Chen Cuihua that Guo wanted to take Sixi back.
It turned out that the couple couldn't have children, so they came to ask for Sixi.
"Here's an IOU. Put your fingerprint on it. Don't waste any more time here, I'm very busy."
Left with no other choice, Guo gritted her teeth and pressed her fingerprint on the document.
"Miss Lu, I'd like to bring Sixi along..."
"Next!" Lu Qingqing called out.
"It's finally my turn!"
A tall young man ran in.
It turned out to be Xiao Zhang.
"Hey, why aren't you leaving yet?" Xiao Zhang asked Guo Shi curiously.
Guo had no choice but to leave.
As they reached the door, they heard Lu Qingqing say, "Back then, when you chose someone else to abandon your child, you severed the bond between mother and child."
"You can't take Sixi with you, stop daydreaming."
"What if I pay for it?" Guo asked, still unwilling to give up.
"Sure, ten thousand taels."
Ten thousand taels, no questions asked.
Guo had wasted one tael of silver, and then ran into Sixi on her way out.
Si Xi looked at her as if she were a stinky rat that he couldn't shake off.
Disgust and malice.
Guo knew then that it wouldn't work.
But she has no other choice now.
"Sixi, if I told you that I would be divorced if you didn't come with me, would you help me?"
"Why should I? Grandma begged you to stay back then, but you didn't, did you?"
The Guo family members are now strangers to them, and have no connection with them whatsoever.
Why would she think he would help?
That's really strange.
Guo covered her face and ran away.
Si Xi then looked annoyed and ran to the pharmacy.
When I opened the door, I saw a big guy boiling medicine by the stove, sweating profusely from the heat.
"Uncle Zhang? Why are you taking my job?"
"Oh, then you can give it to me!"
When Si Xi arrived, Lu Qingqing called to Xiao Zhang, "Seal the stove and let it sit for a while. Come and lie down; I'm going to explain acupressure points to Si Xi."
Xiao Zhang is not sick at all.
He just wanted to see Li Meng.
He told Lu Qingqing that he would pretend to be sick and come every two days.
Lu Qingqing said that since he was faking illness, he should do it convincingly and be used as a specimen for her.
So, Xiao Zhang took off his shirt and lay down on the bed.
He let Lu Qingqing point and explain to Sixi, his attention already wandering outside.
Listen intently to what the people outside are saying.
It sounded like Sister Linghua was saying, "Mengmeng, you'll be marrying Xiao Zhang in half a month. Don't you need to rest for a couple of days then?"
“…No need.” Li Meng said softly and timidly.
"Yes, Xiao Zhang looks pretty... well, you know."
Sister-in-law Linghua seemed to have something on her mind and didn't explain it clearly.
So what is that?
Xiao Zhang is thinking.
Did he do something wrong?
Lu Qingqing said, "Sixi, look, this is the Shimen acupoint, the Mu point of the Sanjiao."
This is the Guanyuan acupoint.
The point between Shimen and Guanyuan is a sterilization point; moxibustion at this point can cause sterilization.
Xiao Zhang gradually came to his senses.
sterilization?
Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen.
"Wow wow wow!"
He looked up and saw a silver needle sticking out of his lower abdomen!
"Miss Lu, you didn't say you wanted to use acupuncture!!!"
"I've been sterilized, I've been sterilized... I can't have children anymore?"
