Dressed as a little fool: marry and have children

The year 1961 came quietly, and Qin Huairu had already given birth to a new member of the Jia family, Jia Dang, and she was pregnant with Sophora japonica. During this period, she frequently appeared in the sight of Liu Xiuxiu and He Yuzhu, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally trying to make her presence felt.

That day, Liu Xiuxiu was on vacation at home. Qin Huairu stood at the door of Liu Xiuxiu's house with a smug smile on her face. She looked directly at Liu Xiuxiu and said, "Xiuxiu, you and Yuzhu have been married for so many years, why don't you plan to have children? Are you following Xu Damao and the others? That's not good. Look at me, Sister Qin, I'm about to give birth to my third child."

Her words were full of pride and superiority, as if she was the winner in life because she had given birth to three children, and Liu Xiuxiu was the loser.

Liu Xiuxiu's face changed slightly when she heard Qin Huairu's words. She had indeed always felt bad for not being able to give He Yuzhu a child, and it was a regret in her heart that she could not let He Daqing hold a grandson or granddaughter. Qin Huairu's words undoubtedly touched her sore spot and made her feel a prick.

Qin Huairu looked at Liu Xiuxiu lost in thought, feeling even more proud. She turned around and prepared to leave, but she did not forget to provoke Liu Xiuxiu again: "Xiuxiu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but giving birth is a woman's big deal, you have to hurry up."

She turned and left, returning to her home. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Jia Dang, who had peed on the bed and no one was taking care of him. She hurried over to change the child's diaper. While busying herself, she blamed Jia Zhang: "Mom, didn't you see that Xiao Dang was crying because he peed? Why didn't you come over to help change his diaper?"

Jia Zhang felt a little uncomfortable with Qin Huairu's reproach. She frowned slightly, without even looking at Qin Huairu and Jia Dang, and said in a cold tone: "I still have to take care of my eldest grandson. You take care of your daughter yourself, don't look for me." After that, she turned around and led her grandson out, as if she didn't want to say anything more to Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang's back as she left, and she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. She knew that she didn't have much status in this family, but she was still very dissatisfied when she saw Jia Zhang treating her and her children like this. She looked down at Jia Dang on the bed, and a trace of helplessness and fatigue flashed in her eyes.

At the same time, Liu Xiuxiu had been lost in thought since Qin Huairu left. She sat on the bed, stroking her belly with both hands, with a determined light in her eyes. She seemed to have made up her mind, with a resolute expression on her face.

She got up and walked into the house, took out some money from the drawer and held it tightly in her hand. Then she walked out of the house and walked towards the hospital. Her steps were firm and powerful, as if she was ready to face everything.

After arriving at the hospital, Liu Xiuxiu walked back and forth in the corridor of the hospital, her heart full of nervousness and anticipation. Suddenly, she heard someone calling her name, and she quickly answered and walked over.

The doctor looked at her medical records and was silent for a while. Liu Xiuxiu looked at the doctor's face and became even more nervous. She asked carefully, "Doctor, do I have a serious illness? Just tell me, I can handle it."

The doctor looked up and took a closer look at Liu Xiuxiu. Seeing that she was pale with fear, he smiled gently and said in a calm tone, "Don't be too nervous. Actually, there is nothing wrong with your body. It's just that you must have had a serious illness when you were a child, which caused your body to catch a cold and it's not easy to conceive. However, as long as you are willing to cooperate with the treatment and take Chinese medicine for more than a year, you should still have a chance to get pregnant."

Liu Xiuxiu felt relieved when she heard the doctor's words. She looked at the doctor gratefully, with hope in her eyes, and said, "Doctor, please prescribe some medicine for me. I will take it on time and take good care of my body."

The doctor smiled and nodded, picked up the prescription pad on the table, and wrote down the prescription carefully. As he wrote, he reminded her, "This is a month's supply of medicine. You can go to the pharmacy to pick it up when the time comes. Remember to take it on time, three times a day, after meals. Come back for a checkup in a month, and I will adjust the prescription according to your condition."

Liu Xiuxiu took the prescription from the doctor and looked at him with gratitude. She knew she had really met a good doctor this time and couldn't help but respect him. She took the prescription and walked quickly to the payment window. After paying, she hurried to the pharmacy to get the medicine.

Liu Xiuxiu was in an unusually relaxed mood, holding a large bag of Chinese medicine in her hand. She walked out of the hospital gate with a long-lost smile on her face. She knew that she had finally found a way to solve the problem. This large bag of Chinese medicine seemed to be her hope for the future. As long as she took the medicine on time according to the doctor's instructions and adjusted her body, she believed that she would give He Yuzhu a child one day.

Liu Xiuxiu walked briskly towards the courtyard, feeling relieved. When she walked into the courtyard, her neighbors noticed the Chinese medicine bag in her hand. For a moment, all kinds of caring words came one after another:

"Xiu Xiu, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" the three aunts asked with concern, their faces full of worry.

"Why did you prescribe so many medicines? Are you feeling unwell?" Aunt Liu also came forward, her tone revealing a hint of worry.

"Don't hide anything. We are all neighbors and we should help each other." Others enthusiastically expressed their willingness to help.

Liu Xiuxiu smiled and thanked everyone for their concern, explaining that she was just a little weak and needed some recuperation, and there was nothing serious.

After returning home, Liu Xiuxiu couldn't wait to prepare the Chinese medicine. She found the clay pot at home and cleaned it carefully. Then, according to the doctor's instructions, she poured the Chinese medicine into the clay pot one by one and added the appropriate amount of water.

She carefully placed the casserole on the stove, lit the fire, and began to boil the medicinal herbs. She decided to boil the medicine for today and tomorrow first. As time passed, the whole house was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine.
