At this ti, B-ultrasound had just begun to rise, its popularity wasn’t high, but the fees were quite steep, far from reaching the necessary examination facility levels of a few decades later. Fully counting, Shuzhen was the only one waiting to do the ultrasound, without even the hassle of queuing.
Excitedly holding the completed ultrasound sheet, she thought about a future without backstabbers, a happy life undisturbed by bad n and won, no worries about arguing over an unfilial child. Shuzhen felt genuinely ecstatic and headed eagerly towards the obstetrics departnt, oblivious to Lianshan who had been leisurely following her.
After reaching the obstetrics departnt, she lined up for a bit. She waited until the two pregnant won who ca for the prenatal check-up were done, then she placed her ultrasound sheet on the desk of the obstetrics departnt head who had been smilingly ready to perform a curettage on her. She sat with full anticipation on the stool across from her desk waiting for good news, only to have a bucket of cold water poured over her.
The uterine wall is thin, the uterus is retroflexed; rashly undergoing surgery poses high risks for the pregnant woman, mishandling could lead to excessive curettage resulting in infertility, or incomplete curettage requiring a secondary procedure?
What did it an that the fetal indicators were still within normal range, just slightly malnourished? Going back to nutrition would suffice, completely unnecessary to risk such a huge danger for curettage?
Shuzhen was dumbfounded, unable to believe that even such bizarre and lucky occurrences as rebirth and superpowers could land on her, that the fate of a cannon fodder coback seed so unlucky. Surely, like the protagonists in the rebirth and revenge novels Yanzi read, there would always be a shimr of hope beneath imminent crises with no real dangers.
Yes, that’s it!
How could soone favored by heaven succumb so easily to a minor curettage?
Shuzhen clenched her fist to cheer herself on, after a long while she resolutely stated with a pale face, "No, doctor, our family conditions are poor, plus I’m busy contributing ideas and efforts to building the nation, I really don’t have the ans or energy to raise this child. Therefore, I’ve decided to undergo the curettage and remove this child, please help . If, if anything does happen, it’s my own choice, and I absolutely won’t bla it on you. I can sign the surgical consent form in advance."
"Ahem, alright then, I’ve truly not seen a woman as stubborn as you. If that’s the case, write your own surgical consent form assuming the risks. I’ll brief you on the pre-operative precautions, and perform the surgery personally either this afternoon or tomorrow." The obstetrics departnt head, perhaps due to a previous favorable impression of Shuzhen, agreed with her idea even in good faith despite being refused.
Watching Shuzhen pick up the paper and pen ready to write, Lianshan, who was hoping the obstetrics head could persuade her successfully from outside the door, couldn’t hold back. He quickly jumped out, snatched the paper and pen from Shuzhen’s hand. Before the shocked obstetrics head could open her mouth to call soone, he spoke first, "No, doctor, don’t listen to this old lady nonsense, we won’t do the surgery. I’ll take her ho, nourish her with rice and flour, and ensure that this country’s flower grows healthily and plumply. Shuzhen, stop it, let’s go ho. Any problem, we’ll overco positively, how could we not want the child for minor ailnts!"
The obstetrics head frowned, assuming the young couple hadn’t made clear arrangents, and Shuzhen had taken a unilateral initiative. The previous good impression of Shuzhen vanished instantly without a trace, with a stern face she said coldly, "Whether to undergo surgery you two go ho and discuss thoroughly before coming back. This doctor’s office is not your bargaining market. Any further noise affecting hospital order, don’t get calling you to discuss in that place!"
"Yes, yes, doctor. We’ll leave right away, promise not to disrupt your work!" Back then those three words directly tied to that place in the eyes of an old farr are absolutely more dreadful than the police station. After all, the police station needs evidence to handle cases, whereas those elders there, even if the attitude slightly went wrong, could be criticized and fought!
Usually seeing the red armband brought dread enough to avoid it, figuring fewer issues were better than more, who would be willing to be sent to such a ghostly place?
Hearing such intimidation from the obstetrics head, taking it seriously, Lianshan hurriedly pulled Shuzhen’s hand and dragged her out.
Managing to fool a simple and kind-hearted obstetrics head, Shuzhen internally didn’t want to give up. But Lianshan, with the honest man’s stubbornness, just kept dragging her out. She couldn’t possibly call for help and say he’s not her man at all and has no right to decide whether the flesh inside her stays or goes, right? Goodness, he’s indeed the real husband, the one for a lifeti to be lived with.
If this kind-hearted naive female doctor took it literally and accused her silly man of having ulterior motives, where could she even cry?
Only wanting to live beautifully and peacefully with this man for life, without the intention of breaking up, Shuzhen helplessly let him pull her out of the hospital, drawing curious stares from countless passersby. The feeling of holding hands was incredibly nice, as if they weren’t the distant siblings Lianshan and Shuzhen, but a deeply loving married couple. If not seeing the distant two red armbands at the intersection, honestly Shuzhen didn’t think of letting go.
Anxious to pull away this female comrade’s hand without a thought, but reminded now she was set free, Lianshan’s handso face imdiately flushed red like blood was about to drip, he quickly bowed deeply and apologized solemnly, "Sorry, Shuzhen sister. I, I was too hasty, forgot the boundaries."
The silly man’s face turned as red as a newly cooked shrimp, full of ’I am wrong, I apologize,’ as long as Shuzhen sister could calm down, he was at her disposal, even if Shuzhen had massive grievances she couldn’t harbor any. Moreover, being held hands, she scarcely had ti to savor let alone get angry?
But not being angry didn’t an not taking advantage of the situation; she tangled last night about how to make Shuzhen and Lianshan family, now it seed like the pillow arrived just in ti for the nap?
Shuzhen’s eyes narrowed and she coldly said, "Talking here feels inconvenient, let’s speak back at the guesthouse."
Seeing her unhappy expression, ready to step away, Lianshan had no choice but to follow with a bitter face. Regardless of what reason, it was a fact he impulsively grabbed her hand. Whether to scold or hit, as long as Shuzhen sister feels happy, he’s at her discretion. Just that she shouldn’t risk insisting, rather ruin her own body but abort the child is enough.
