Early the next morning, there was a loud knock on the door of their home.
Shen Anan and Zhang Xiuying hurriedly got up from the bed.
"Who is it? It's so early in the morning."
The weather here is different from the weather in their hometown. It gets brighter here and gets darker later at night.
It was after 9 o'clock last night, and it was still light here.
It's actually not daylight yet.
The only piece of glass in the room had poor light transmittance, and it was not bright yet, so the room was dark.
"Doctor Shen, Doctor Shen, I'm Cui Hua'er."
Shen Anan put on her clothes, and her mother had already turned on the light. Only then did Shen Anan suddenly react.
Isn't Li Cuihua Jin Carpenter's lover?
I asked while putting clothes on my body.
"What's wrong with Sister-in-law Cuihua? What happened?"
"Liu Zhaodi next door had a difficult delivery. The midwife said that neither the baby nor the adults could be saved. Please, please take a look.
I know you are the only doctor here, and Dr. Liu is not here at all on the health team. "
When Shen Anan heard this, her heart skipped a beat. If a mother had difficulty giving birth, it would be a big deal.
While hurriedly buttoning up his clothes, he pushed his shoes on his feet.
"Sister-in-law Cuihua, don't worry, I'll be out right away."
Grabbing my daughter's hand,
"Where are you going? What are you doing when someone is having a difficult delivery?
You've never delivered a baby. "
"Mom, I'm a doctor. I can help you to some extent. Just leave it alone. I'm leaving. You can close the door and continue to rest. Don't worry. I'll go take a look and come back."
Shen Anan quickly put on a scarf while comforting her mother.
I opened the door and saw Sister-in-law Cuihua standing at the end of the den with a flashlight.
Sister-in-law Cuihua said anxiously as she stamped her feet from the cold.
"Doctor Shen, I'm really sorry. I know it's still dark, but Zhao Di is really in trouble.
I started having stomachaches at midnight last night, and I had called the midwife, but now the midwife said that even adults couldn't save the baby. "
"Her cruel mother-in-law has already asked people to prepare the coffin boards."
Shen Anan hurriedly followed,
"Sister-in-law, let's go quickly."
At present, she does not understand the situation clearly. She only knows that the mother may die because of the child.
When I went out, I slung my satchel on my body. Things could come out of it at any time.
The two of them kicked each other deep and shallow, Cuihua's sister-in-law was in front using a flashlight to illuminate the road, and she almost fell out.
Shen Anan hurriedly supported her.
"Sister-in-law, please slow down, what's going on with Zhao Di?"
"Yaoshou!"
"When you hear her name, you know that the family originally favored sons over daughters. In order to exchange for the bride price for the younger brother, her mother directly married her to the son of Widow Wang.
The man is a good person, lame on one leg, and very considerate to women, but the only problem is that he listens to his mother too much. "
"Widow Wang has only had one son all her life. Think about it, she also longs to have a son.
As a result, Zhaodi gave birth to two daughters in succession, which made her mother-in-law look ugly all day long.
When it came to the third child, the pregnancy was not good, and the mother-in-law was not willing to take care of her.
She couldn't keep up with the food and drink. She was obviously going to give birth in the past two days, but her mother-in-law insisted on letting her man go to her parents' house the day before yesterday.
Why don't you bring some food back, just in time for her confinement? "
"Her mother-in-law's natal family is more than 800 miles away from here. It takes at least four or five days to get back and forth."
"As a result, she gave birth tonight. You tell me, it was just such a coincidence."
Shen Anan understood as soon as he heard this that this was something that often happened in this era.
Unlike my own time, here the preference for boys over girls is reasonable and legal, and everyone agrees with it.
No one feels wrong.
Obviously, this is a typical tragic experience of a daughter-in-law who is not welcomed by her husband's family because she gave birth to a daughter.
The two of them could only speed up their pace, and soon arrived at the nest that Cuihua's sister-in-law had mentioned.
As soon as the two people arrived, they heard crying from the door.
"What a sin! I told you to move more, but you didn't move.
Improper fetal position!
Is it okay this time?
Our eldest grandson has also been killed. "
"Dad, please open your eyes in heaven."
"Why did you end up with such a bad guy!"
There were other voices coming from the side.
"Damn it, Dazhu, is this person really dying?"
"Of course it won't work. One corpse and two lives."
"Why is my life so miserable? I've got such a bad guy on my side."
Shen Anan couldn't help but feel sympathy for this woman she had never met before.
Just by listening to her mother-in-law's virtues, you can tell that she is not a good mother-in-law.
Sister-in-law Cuihua pulled Shen Anan into the nest.
"Damn Zhuzhu, I brought Dr. Shen here. Maybe he can be saved."
Pointing to the woman on the kang, she said,
"This is Zhao Di, Dr. Shen, please take a look."
At this moment, an old lady rushed out from the side and stopped them in front of them.
Shen Anan was almost thrown in the face by the old lady's arm, so she had to take two steps back.
Only then could he see clearly, under the dim light, an old lady with triangular eyes and high cheekbones.
He was staring at himself fiercely, as if he wanted to eat someone.
"Cuihua, what are you doing? Our daughter-in-law has already left, why are you still tormenting her like this?"
"Go, go, get out quickly, we don't want any doctors here.
Doctor Liu from the health team has already got off work. Even if Doctor Liu comes, what can he do as a man?
Let me tell you, the midwives said that my daughter-in-law is no longer good. You all should leave. You all should leave. "
Shen Anan's eyes fell on the woman lying on the kang, covered with a quilt.
Can't see the situation clearly.
His hair was disheveled and his face could not be seen clearly.
But the only thing he looked at was that the woman's hand outside the quilt actually moved, proving that the woman was still alive.
Shen Anan frowned and pushed the old lady away.
"Sister-in-law Cuihua, take this person out."
The sternness in the voice made everyone in the room stunned for a moment, because there were not only the old lady in the room, but besides the old lady, there were also three old ladies.
It seemed like they were all here to help.
"Zhuzi, you better go out first. Doctor Shen is a very powerful doctor. Let her take a look at Zhaodi. Maybe she can be saved."
Li Cuihua reacted immediately and hurriedly pulled the old lady to go out.
Unexpectedly, the old lady immediately became angry when she heard this.
He threw Li Cuihua away,
"Well, Li Cuihua, what does our family's domestic affairs have to do with you?
My daughter-in-law has clearly lost her temper, but you still want to instigate outsiders to torment my daughter-in-law. I'm telling you, I'm not done with you. "
"Look, all of you. Li Cuihua brought outsiders to bully our family.
Someone in our family just died, so my daughter-in-law is not dead. Doesn’t this sincerely disgust us? "
