Chapter 229: Take Refuge 2
Qin Xiaoning and her servant followed Juxian out of the pharmacy, passed through a hall, and came to the small building at the back.
This is a two-story building made of blue bricks and brown tiles. It is simple and elegant. Juxian led the two of them in and introduced them warmly, "This is where the consultation is done."
Qin Xiaoning walked into the small building, lifting her skirt, and saw two elderly men sitting on the first floor. One had a head full of white hair and looked to be in his seventies or eighties, but was in good spirits. The other was in his forties or fifties, with a dignified appearance. There was also a young man, no more than thirty years old, with delicate features.
The three of them were doctors, and they were busy seeing patients. There were many benches on the first floor, and there were many people waiting to see a doctor.
Juxian lowered her voice and said to Qin Xiaoning, "The white-haired old man is Master Jiang's father-in-law, the middle-aged doctor is Master Jiang's husband, Doctor Zhao, and the youngest one is Doctor Zhao's apprentice, named Qiu Pu."
It can be seen that the Zhao family is a family of doctors.
Qin Xiaoning wrote down everything, and then nodded politely to Juxianli. Juxian said, "I'm busy with my consultation today, but there's still a lot of time to come. I'll introduce you to Miss Qin in detail later."
"The master is delivering a baby upstairs. I want to take you upstairs." As she said that, Juxian took Qin Xiaoning upstairs.
There are several single rooms on the second floor, which are used to treat trauma patients. Outside one of the single rooms, two old women and a young man are standing, all with anxious looks on their faces.
As soon as Juxian showed up, the family gathered around her in a hurry: "Doctor Ju, why is there no movement inside? When we were at home, my daughter-in-law had already given birth for two days and two nights. Now that she has been here for such a long time, the little grandson in my daughter-in-law's belly will not be suffocated."
Juxian stood firm and replied, "The fetus in the pregnant woman's belly is in an abnormal position and is large. The mother is already exhausted. She cannot give birth to the baby in a normal way."
Before Juxian could finish, another old woman grabbed her hand and said anxiously, "What should we do? If she has a difficult birth, my daughter's life will be in danger."
As she spoke, the old woman couldn't help crying.
Juxian heard the voice and comforted her: "Don't worry, Auntie, my master has his own way to help your daughter."
The two old ladies were still worried and kept asking questions to Juxian. The man beside her was equally anxious, with beads of sweat on his dark forehead. Seeing his mother and mother-in-law surrounding Juxian and refusing to let go, he came over to persuade them to leave, then lowered his voice and asked Juxian, "Doctor Ju, just now he told me that Dr. Jiang wants to perform a cesarean section on my wife to get the baby. Oh my, this is the first time I've heard of a woman giving birth and having her belly cut open to get the baby out. Is this possible?"
Feng Xian quietly glanced at the two old women standing in the distance, and whispered back: "Don't worry, my master has performed caesarean section on many women with difficult labor, and nine out of ten of them can survive. Your wife is having a difficult labor, and if this method is not used, both mother and child will not survive."
Seeing the two old ladies crying anxiously, Juxian comforted the man: "Just comfort the two old ladies. They may not be able to accept the cesarean section for the time being. It is better to hide it from them for now, so as not to make them more anxious and angry."
The man was also very anxious, but he was calmer than the two old women. Hearing this, he straightened his shoulders and said, "I understand."
After comforting the family, Juxian finally found time to entertain Qin Xiaoning and her servant. She led them to a separate room and said, "Miss Qin, please wait here for a while. You will be able to see her after the master has delivered the baby."
Qin Xiaoning replied: "I'm not in a hurry. Thank you, Doctor Ju. Go ahead and do your work. I'll just wait here."
Juxian smiled and said, "I still have a few herbs to prepare. Miss, please sit here for a while. I will be back soon."
This compartment is adjacent to the room where Dr. Jiang delivers babies. Through the gauze curtain of this compartment, one can vaguely see the scene inside that room.
After Fengxian left, Songzhi was curious: "This is the first time I've heard of cesarean section. If you cut open a person's stomach, can the person still survive? Even if they can survive, they will be in so much pain that they will die." As she spoke, she stood up and tiptoed to look inside the compartment, muttering: "If they were going to cut open the stomach, why didn't I hear the woman crying?"
Qin Xiaoning replied: "Since it is a laparotomy, the patient will definitely be given anesthesia. The patient is in a coma and naturally will not feel any pain."
"Giving birth to a child is really scary." Songzhi shrank his neck: "In the future, I would rather not get married than have any children."
Speaking of this, Qin Xiaoning couldn't help but think of Lu Ji again.
Before he ran away, he was looking forward to having me give birth to a child.
I don’t know how he is doing now.
If I leave him like this cruelly, he will probably be very sad and will probably scold me for being an ungrateful person.
Qin Xiaoning was here with her eyes downcast, thinking about something, when she heard a loud cry of a baby from next door.
"Oh, the baby is out, the baby is out." Mixed with the family's joyful calls, the lively atmosphere on the upper floor spread.
Qin Xiaoning and Song Zhi could not help but leave the compartment, only to see a middle-aged woman in hemp clothes coming out from the next room holding a small child. Her hands were still stained with blood, and although her face showed fatigue, there was a festive smile on the corners of her mouth.
"It's okay, mother and child are safe." Doctor Jiang held the child and announced the good news to the family.
"Oh my." Seeing Jiang Nu coming out, the mother-in-law of that family was the first to run over and asked impatiently, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
"It's a boy." Doctor Jiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied with a smile.
Another old woman rushed over upon hearing this, tears still streaming from her eyes. When she got closer, she couldn't help but look inside and asked, "How is my daughter?"
"He hasn't woken up yet, but he's fine." Doctor Jiang said again.
Perhaps she was too nervous and worried just now. When the old woman heard that her daughter was fine, she suddenly felt relieved and was about to collapse. The man beside her supported her steadily and comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, mother-in-law. Both the child and the adults are fine. The doctor said they are all fine."
"That's fine, that's fine."
The old woman cried with joy. After her son-in-law helped her to steady herself, she didn't know how to thank the doctor. She couldn't help but kowtow to Dr. Jiang to express her gratitude, but Dr. Jiang stopped her and said, "You hold the baby first, and then go in to see her after she wakes up."
As she spoke, she handed the baby in her hands to the two old women in the family, then pulled the man aside and instructed him in detail to take care of the details of the woman in labor.
The man listened carefully, nodded in agreement, and thanked the doctor over and over again.
