The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it
Chapter 171 Giving birth
The housekeeper Wu Changding, an efficient old servant, immediately led the midwife to the place in a hurry upon hearing this. Every step he took was filled with anxiety and caution, for fear of any mishap.
Inside the room, another midwife, Guan Xiuer, whose face turned pale due to the tense atmosphere just now, asked Su Yu with a trembling voice: "Doctor... since the young master has been born safely, can I go and take care of him and breastfeed him?"
There was both anticipation and a bit of uneasiness in her eyes.
Only then did Su Yu realize that the person in front of her was not only a midwife, but also a wet nurse specially hired by the Wu family.
No wonder she acted so frightened after what happened just now.
Guan Xiuer introduced herself with a hint of embarrassment in her voice: "I am Guan Xiuer, the wet nurse prepared by the Wu family for the young master. Because the madam's condition was critical just now, there was a shortage of manpower, and I had experience in childbirth, so I was called in to help temporarily."
After hearing this, Su Yu nodded gently, "Then you go and take care of the young master first. Remember to ask the midwife to come back. The lady still needs her here."
She knew very well that postpartum care was equally important, especially the delivery of the placenta, which required the midwife's experience and carefulness.
And those tedious follow-up matters are indeed unfamiliar and difficult to handle for outsiders like Su Yu.
Guan Xiu'er nodded gratefully. Although her steps were a little staggering, her heart was full of a sense of mission. She quickly left to fulfill her duties.
On the other side, Yuyan looked at Guan Xiuer's back, tears falling like pearls from a broken string.
The life-and-death scene just now lingered in her mind like a nightmare, making it difficult for her to control herself.
Seeing this, Su Yu gently wiped her tears and advised her softly: "Madam, try not to cry anymore, your eyes will be hurt. Besides, you should feel lucky that both mother and child are safe. This is the greatest gift from God, and we should be happy."
Hearing this, Yu Yan took a deep breath and tried to hold back her tears. Her eyes were filled with hope for the future. She sincerely said to Su Yu, "Thank you, Doctor Su. You not only saved my mother and me, but also gave me courage and strength."
At this moment, gratitude and hope gently permeate the room, heralding a new beginning and endless possibilities.
Su Yu raised a gentle smile, his eyes flashing with a bit of carefreeness and unintentional humor: "You're welcome. After all, in this world, a little money is also a part of life. Just don't forget my share when you give me the tip. I'm really short of money lately and life is very tight."
Zhang Yufei was stunned for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes that had seen all kinds of things in the world. It seemed that he had never expected that the woman in front of him could express her need for money so directly and humorously.
Her frankness and direct embrace of reality seem particularly fresh and unworldly in this world of hypocrisy.
Upon hearing this, Yu Yan's lips unconsciously lifted up, and a gentle smile spread across her jade-like face, as if she was moved by Su Yu's undisguised truthfulness: "Of course, your efforts will definitely be rewarded."
Not long after, the midwife came back after finishing her work and announced a comforting news - Yuyan's placenta had been delivered successfully and her body was recovering.
Su Yu came forward and examined it with a professional and meticulous eye, gently fiddling with the patient's skin with her fingers to ensure that there were no remaining problems. This was not only a responsibility to the patient, but also a reflection of her confidence in her medical skills.
After some confirmation, she felt relieved, and Yuyan's body was spared a lot of unnecessary follow-up troubles.
After the midwife completed her task, she quietly called over several agile maids.
These well-trained maids entered the room quietly, changed the bed sheets skillfully, carefully wiped the sweat from her forehead and back, changed her into clean and soft clothes, and then respectfully stepped aside, leaving only the closest maid to continue waiting by her side.
Just as the atmosphere in the house was gradually becoming quieter, the county magistrate and his kind old mother hurried into the room, their faces full of anxiety and worry.
But when they saw that Yuyan was fine and her complexion was gradually recovering, their frowns finally relaxed and the heavy stone in their hearts fell.
"You suffered."
Wu Wenxing's voice was gentle and distressed. He held Yuyan's hand tightly, his eyes full of affection and pity for his wife.
Yuyan's eyes were filled with tears of gratitude, her voice trembling slightly: "It was all thanks to the two doctors' miraculous skills, otherwise my child and I might have..." Before she could finish her words, fear and dread made her choke again.
Seeing this, the old lady quickly wiped away her tears with a silk handkerchief and said earnestly, "Child, if you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future. Don't cry, or you will hurt your eyes."
After experiencing a struggle on the brink of life and death, as the newborn baby cried, Wu Wenxing's heart was filled with indescribable joy and gratitude.
In order to commend the two doctors' contributions, he generously donated money and gave them generous rewards.
Su Yu held the heavy silver in his hand, feeling the weight in his hand, a warm current surged in his heart, and the love for medicine and the sense of accomplishment filled his chest again.
Before leaving, she carefully wrote out a prescription for recuperation and gave detailed instructions on various postpartum care precautions.
Only after confirming that the county magistrate's wife had no signs of postpartum hemorrhage and everything was safe did she and Zhang Yufei walk out of the Wu Mansion gate together and prepare to return to the clinic.
As soon as he went out, in the dim morning light, Zhang Yufei immediately stopped and bowed to Su Yu respectfully to express his gratitude: "If it weren't for Doctor Su's help today, the consequences would be disastrous. Zhang is very grateful."
Su Yu heard this, his smile was still gentle, but his eyes were more profound: "Director Liu, you are wrong. Doctors are kind-hearted, and saving the dying and healing the wounded is our duty. And what I got is just the reward I deserve, so there is no need to worry too much."
"Furthermore, if Director Liu had not stabilized the situation first and bought precious time for Yuyan with his superb medical skills, how could I have put my knowledge into practice? Director Liu's contribution should not be underestimated."
Her words showed her adherence to medical ethics and her recognition and respect for Zhang Yufei's medical skills. Her words were sincere and awe-inspiring.
The two smiled at each other, and without further words, they set out side by side on the journey back to the clinic.
The morning sun shines on my body, warm and bright, making the already close journey seem even shorter and more pleasant.
Su Yu was riding on the horse, and he couldn't help but feel emotional. This journey seemed particularly warm and close because of today's achievements and the tacit understanding between partners.
As soon as these words were spoken, whispers from the surroundings surged like a tide, diners cast curious glances at them, and the atmosphere froze for a moment.
Su Yu's voice was clear and firm, and in this bustling restaurant, it was like a stream of clear water, making every word sound powerful.
Zhang Yufei watched the situation quietly from the side, with a glimmer of approval in his eyes.
He knew very well that Su Yu was not only an expert in medicine, but also had unique insights into food and extraordinary cooking skills. This confidence was not groundless.
