My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 308 - 105: Talent Played a Big Role2

Du Xixi, who had already walked to the living room, frowned when she saw Yiyi and Er Er sitting on the carpet. Both children were grabbing their small feet and crying noisily, while Miao Miao, trying to comfort them without knowing how, already had a flushed face. She felt sothing was strange.

Yiyi and Er Er were usually the most well-behaved and obedient. Except for when Ke Xing’s unintentional teasing made Yiyi throw a small tantrum, the two children had been very sensible since then. Even if they accidentally wet their pants, they would only whimper slightly, never like the loud crying and fussing now.

An inexplicable unease thudded in Du Xixi’s heart, but she didn’t pay much attention to this sudden anomaly. Instead, she strode over to the children and carefully pulled them into her arms.

But what Yiyi and Er Er did next was even more strange.

In the past, when Du Xixi, as a mother, showed up, the children would purse their small mouths, asking for hugs. But today, even though Du Xixi was so gentle, the children still resisted a bit, pushing against her as if being embraced was an extrely painful thing.

"Miss..."

Seeing Miao Miao’s worried look, Ke Xing also frowned. Both seed to have sensed things were not right, just like Du Xixi. Du Xixi then pressed her lips together and told 2569, who rushed over to check on the little ones in haste, to call a nearby Military Doctor to the house.

Children who are usually well-behaved suddenly beco disobedient? Could it be that a five or six-month-old child has reached a rebellious phase? Du Xixi sneered, but the way she bent down to touch the children’s little heads was very gentle.

Hopefully, it’s just an accident. If not... The three adults exchanged a glance, a sharp glint appeared in their eyes.

The Military Doctor arrived quickly, a highly respected elderly doctor with gray-white beard; however, his movents were very nimble, and he was quite experienced as well.

Initially, the two children resisted him, but under the doctor’s gentle coaxing, although they didn’t actively approach, they also didn’t push him away when he checked their bodies.

It was visibly so, the doctor’s face grew increasingly solemn.

"Old sir, are the children all right?" Ke Xing asked worriedly, clenching his fist. Seeing the doctor had withdrawn his hand and sighed heavily, Ke Xing felt his heart tighten. The children had always been healthy, how did they suddenly fall ill? And with the doctor’s reaction, it seed the illness was quite severe...

As a mother, Du Xixi naturally didn’t feel well either, swaying and supported by Miao Miao beside her. She had slightly reddened eyes, showing so vulnerability, then asked the doctor, "Please tell us, is it congenital, or..."

"This disease is called ’Needle Grinding’, where the patient’s entire body feels like being needled and ground by stones, causing imnse pain." Du Xixi’s words were aningful, and the doctor glanced at the esteed woman, showing slight compassion in his eyes, "It is caused artificially, not natural!"

"Bang!" Ke Xing suddenly punched the table hard. The two children, who used to be curious upon hearing such noises, continued sitting on the carpet, crying loudly. Yiyi’s cries even sounded tired, indicating how much pain they were enduring.

Du Xixi’s lips trembled, wanting to hug the children and comfort them with her soft words, but worried that her actions might cause more pain. Hence, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked the doctor, "Is there any treatnt? Even a quick relief would be good."

Du Xixi believed the doctor did not misdiagnose. Since he could work as a Military Doctor near the Imperial Palace, it was clear he was genuinely respected. Moreover, in the dical profession, the older one gets, the more valuable the experience. Du Xixi only hoped this terrifying-sounding illness was not incurable in the Star Era.

However, in the eager eyes of the three, the doctor slowly shook his head: "I’m sorry, current dical technology doesn’t have a cure. We can only use anesthesia to numb the spiritual power to relieve the pain caused by ’Needle Grinding’. But the children are too young; the anesthetic dose sufficient to relieve ’Needle Grinding’ is fatal to them!"

Ke Xing and Miao Miao instantly slumped, unable to stand properly, not expecting Yiyi and Er Er to experience such a thing at such a young age. But Du Xixi’s eyes suddenly brightened as if she had grasped sothing, then asked: "Spiritual power? Is this ’Needle Grinding’ disease affecting the spiritual power? Is it like the Insect Clan’s toxin?"
