Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work
Chapter 366: Thanks to You
"Have you given birth to a child?" Mu Guixian asked Xie Chenyan.
"Yes, I gave birth last September," Xie Chenyan replied truthfully.
"Doctor, the health of our family member is the top priority," Liu Huilan said seriously. "They already have a son, so if they don’t want more children, that’s fine. The most important thing is to ensure the safety of the adult."
Xie Chenyan’s eyes instantly reddened upon hearing Liu Huilan’s words, feeling extremely moved.
Mu Guixian also smiled upon hearing it. As an obstetrician, she had seen too many families that were unfair to women, so encountering such a considerate one for the daughter-in-law was rare, she couldn’t help but see them in a higher light.
"Alright, I understand." Mu Guixian said with a smile, "No need to worry, with a caesarean section, some gynecological surgeries are quite advanced now. Even in situations where both the baby and the tumor exist, I’ve encountered quite a few and all were successfully delivered. After breastfeeding, the surgery can be done."
"Really?" Liu Huilan and Yi Weiliang exclaimed in unison, their faces unable to hide their joy. Xie Chenyan was even more overjoyed, and the whole family’s mood was completely different from before they came to Jing City.
"I’ve understood the situation. How about we head to the hospital now, get the admission procedures done in the morning, and then have the examination in the afternoon?" Mu Guixian suggested.
"Oh, oh, great! Thank you so much, Doctor Mu. We’ll go prepare the things now." Liu Huilan said happily.
Everyone took a car together to Harmony Hospital, where Mu Guixian directly led them to her office and had the resident doctor help with the admission procedures.
Once they were settled in the hospital, the Yi Family breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Huilan had the mind to familiarize herself with the place and figured out where to buy meals, where to get hot water, and where to wash, then went to fetch food with a lunchbox.
"Alright, you all go home. We’re settled in here." Liu Huilan took the opportunity to urge Xu Ancheng and Yi Roujing to go back home.
In the afternoon, Yi Roujing came over, bringing chicken soup cooked by Li Hongying. Entering the ward and seeing the smiles on the faces of Liu Huilan and the others, she knew the examination results must have been good.
"Mom, Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law, how is it? Have the results come out?" Yi Roujing asked with a smile.
"Roujing, let me tell you, the results are out, just as Doctor Mu expected, and it’s the best scenario, just a uterine fibroid." Liu Huilan said joyfully.
"Doctor Mu mentioned that although it’s considered major surgery, the surgical treatment method is mature. Also, because the fibroid Chenyan has is quite large, it caused her to not have her period. Generally, the smaller ones go unnoticed and don’t affect much, only when pregnant do they get discovered, which complicates matters."
"After the surgery, with some recuperation, Doctor Mu said everything will be normal, and pregnancy won’t be affected." Liu Huilan said happily.
"Doctor Mu has arranged the surgery for May 6th. After the surgery, a few more days in hospital and it’ll be fine."
"That’s wonderful." Yi Roujing was happy for Xie Chenyan, seeing the joy on her face made her smile wider.
"Roujing, the woman next to us has the exact same condition as Chenyan." Liu Huilan excitedly pulled Yi Roujing aside to chat, "Two years ago, Doctor Mu performed her surgery, and now she’s due to give birth."
Yi Roujing understood. No wonder, there’s a comparison example, so they’re more at ease.
"Doctor Mu is a nationally renowned obstetrician. With her, Third Sister-in-law will certainly recover fully."
"Roujing, it’s all thanks to you." Xie Chenyan expressed her gratitude, feeling incredibly blessed to have met Yi Roujing.
Back then, because of the affair involving the textile factory director’s nephew, she almost backed out of this wonderful marriage. It was Yi Roujing who persuaded her, letting her see the goodness of the Yi Family and marrying Yi Weiliang.
After struggling to conceive, she also followed Yi Roujing’s advice to take the prescribed medicine, and got pregnant shortly after.
Now again, Xie Chenyan suddenly felt like crying, thinking if it weren’t for Yi Roujing, she might have already given up on her life.
"We’re all family, no need for formalities," Yi Roujing said with a laugh. "Get better soon and go home to see Sweet Potato. Next time I see Sweet Potato, he should be able to walk and call people."
"Of course." Liu Huilan agreed, "Kids really change every day."
Upon leaving the ward, Yi Roujing met Mu Guixian at the staircase on the second floor, but she was currently wrangling with a middle-aged man who looked like a relative.
"Second Sister, I’m doing this for the family too," Mu Guiwei said helplessly. "Whether they sell it or not, I can at least ask, can’t I?"
"No, you can’t." Mu Guixian tugged on Mu Guiwei’s sleeve, "If you ask, I’ll tell Mom."
"Second Sister, we..."
"Mu Guiwei, can you use your brain for once?" Mu Guixian was quite exasperated, "Don’t you know what the Zheng Family does? And that Life-saving Pill is traditional medicine, Xu Family and Zheng Family are relatives, who do you think you are to inquire about this? You’re making me embarrassed."
"But there are quite a few cases of stroke in our family. Mom’s the best among us. What’s wrong with keeping some Life-saving Pills in case of emergencies?" Mu Guiwei said somewhat disappointedly.
"Our Mu Family is so skilled in Western medicine, saving so many lives, yet we can’t even save our own family members; doesn’t that make you frustrated?"
"Then just ask if they have extras, we can buy some." Mu Guixian said, "There are sellers of An Gong Niu Huang Pill, look elsewhere..."
"Second Sister, we’ve bought from other places before, but you’ve seen the effects, they’re worlds apart." Mu Guiwei interrupted.
"Anyway, you..."
"Guixian Auntie," Yi Roujing called out proactively.
Mu Guixian was startled, "Rou, Roujing is here."
Hearing the name, Mu Guiwei turned his enthusiastic eyes toward her, paused at the sight of such a beautiful girl, and then introduced himself, "Hello, Comrade Roujing, I’m Mu Guiwei, your Guixian Auntie’s younger brother."
Mu Guixian secretly rolled her eyes.
"Just in time, I wanted to ask about that... um..."
"Roujing, we have something to attend to, so we’ll leave first." Mu Guixian quickly covered her brother’s mouth and dragged him away.
"Guixian Auntie, I heard your conversation just now." Yi Roujing chuckled, "That Life-saving Pill was developed by my grandfather, and there aren’t many left, mainly because the herbs are so rare to find."
"Whether or not the formula can be sold, I’ll have to discuss with my mom and others," Yi Roujing said, "But the best approach should be to find the herbs, make more Life-saving Pills, and allow more people in need to have them."
"Comrade Roujing, well said." Mu Guiwei raised both hands in agreement, "Whatever herbs are missing, just let us know. We’ll find a way together." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
"I’ve been looking for the herbs as well," Yi Roujing replied with a smile. "As for specifics, I’ll come to speak with Guixian Auntie the day my third sister-in-law has her surgery."
"Alright, alright," Mu Guixian said with a beaming smile, "Roujing, you’re really a great help."
"It’s just a matter of mutual assistance," Yi Roujing smiled and said, "If you need some of the remaining Life-saving Pills, giving up two now is possible."
