"n can also have issues, infertility isn’t just a woman’s affair," Chun Nuan said, "so it’s best to treat both."
"Alright, I’ll go talk to my niece first."
Aunt Zhong specially went to her mother’s house and told her sister-in-law about this situation.
"Aunt, I really can’t thank you enough," her sister-in-law, eyes filled with tears, held the hand of her little sister-in-law. "Dongi ca back again yesterday. We think long-term staying at the mother’s house isn’t the way to go. We wanted to send her back to the Hu family but feared she’d suffer grievances there. It’s truly a dilemma."
Upon hearing from her little sister-in-law that their young mistress can treat won’s diseases and that the young mistress’s grandfather was an Imperial Physician at the palace, she’s an outstanding doctor who can cure her daughter Dongi’s ailnt and grant her the long-desired dream of having a chubby baby boy.
"Where is Dongi?"
"Her sister-in-law took her to do so needlework," Sister-in-law Hu said with a heartache. "She has lost a lot of weight again. Her sister-in-law even said if things don’t work out, just let her divorce. After all, our family won’t miss her portion of grain, and as long as we have food, Dongi won’t starve."
"Yang Liu is a good sister-in-law."
There aren’t many sister-in-laws at the mother’s side who would agree for the sister-in-law to divorce and return ho, yet Yang Liu advised so, which is truly comndable.
"Yes, our Yang Liu is a good daughter-in-law, a good sister-in-law. That’s what I think too. If she can’t give birth, we shouldn’t delay their family, better to part ways. But our son-in-law doesn’t agree, and dragging it on feels truly unbearable."
"Go call Dongi, let her co to the villa with ."
"Okay."
Dongi, upon hearing her aunt sought a doctor for her, felt deeply grateful yet a little worried.
She had lost hope, and suddenly given a glimr, she feared it might be in vain if her illness couldn’t be treated.
"Dongi, don’t overthink it, we just want the young mistress to take a look; if there’s an illness, we treat it. If not, we can’t be wronged." Aunt Zhong said, "As my young mistress ntioned, so n can’t father children either. This bla, a woman alone can’t shoulder, nor should she."
"How can a man be infertile?"
Dongi could hardly believe such a situation could happen.
"My young mistress said so, and her grandfather treated the nobility in the palace, he’s incredibly skilled, so what she says must be true."
"Is it Doctor Xiao?"
Dongi quickly asked.
"Yes, how did you know?"
"Our neighbor Sister-in-law Wan quietly told before, suggesting I go see Doctor Xiao’s granddaughter for a check-up, but I was always too afraid to go."
She didn’t dare to visit secretly, and feared to take her husband along.
"Silly girl, since there’s a good doctor who can cure your illness, what are you worried about?" Sister-in-law Hu quickly said, "Go, hurry with your aunt, no, I’ll accompany you to plead with the young mistress to cure your illness, so you won’t have to suffer anymore."
Dongi’s eyes reddened as she nodded.
Her family was indeed wonderful.
Her family always said if she were to divorce, just co ho, there’d be enough food for her.
But Dongi wasn’t willing to divorce because she feared causing trouble for her family. Her family still had younger siblings to marry, and if the household had one divorced woman who couldn’t bear children, it would make it harder for their marriages.
Her family thought of her, and she naturally had to consider her family too.
Aunt Zhong brought her eldest sister-in-law and Dongi back to the villa.
They explained the situation to the young mistress.
"Bring her in then."
"Yes."
Aunt Zhong brought her niece in.
"Pay respects to the young mistress."
This etiquette was only recently taught to Dongi by her aunt.
Being from a farming family, they never had such refined manners before.
"No need for formalities, have a seat."
For a mont, Dongi didn’t know where to sit.
"Just sit next to the young mistress, so she can take your pulse," Ding Xiang quickly indicated to her.
"Thank you, young mistress."
Then she turned to Ding Xiang with a grateful smile, "Thank you, sister."
"No need to be polite, you look so frail, take care of yourself," Ding Xiang showed compassion for the girl.
Ah, it’s so tough being a woman; if you marry and can’t bear children, you will be looked down upon.
This girl nad Dongi seems nice, hopefully, the young mistress can cure her.
"When did your last nstruation start?"
Chun Nuan asked while taking her pulse.
"The fifteenth of last month."
"Is it regular every month?"
"Quite regular. It usually neither delays nor cos early."
"Does it cause stomach pain during nstruation?"
