Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

Speaking of this grown man, Shi Liang looks awkward.

But he still told the truth, "The village chief believed that although his wife had a difficult birth, it was because she was frightened. Even if it was a difficult birth because the child was small, a child that was not born full-term would not have much impact on the woman giving birth.

He believed that the doctor could save the woman, but because he had previously kidnapped the doctor and taken him up the mountain, he deliberately did not treat the woman out of revenge."

Not to mention Wenshu and Jueyu were also shocked when they heard these remarks. This concerned the doctor's reputation. In this world, even enemies will put aside their previous grudges when they are truly curing diseases and saving lives.

This is almost impossible.

Sure enough, Wen Shuji asked, "What did the doctor say?"

Shi Liang sighed, "Brother Xie is really pitiful..."

'Thank you, brother' What do you mean by thank you, brother? It's only been a short while and you've become brothers.

Also, you say words of sympathy, but what's wrong with your tone?

"Hey, the doctor said that this baby is clearly full-term and has long passed the delivery period. The reason why the baby looks smaller than a full-term baby is because the pregnant woman deliberately controlled her diet to prevent the baby from growing..."

"So, your brother Xie got angry and beat the doctor." Wen Shu didn't know what to say.

Jingniang had said before that the child was Kangwu's. Xie Youcai thought that his wife had resorted to this desperate measure to save her own life.

Now that the person has just passed away, the doctor brought it up again.

"Forget it, go ask those heroes if there is any woman who has just given birth nearby, or a ewe who has just given birth." Wen Shu thought about it and realized that it was no use letting the child go hungry, so she gave the order.

"Yes, Chief."

Watching Shi Liang enter the room where someone was locked up, Wen Shu turned her head and listened to the sound.

"Where is the child's voice..." This hall doesn't look like a hall, and the yard doesn't look like a yard. There is a big gate for entering and exiting, and a row of houses are built around it, except for the row of houses directly opposite the gate which are made of some stones.

The other rows of houses were all built with wood. The place Wenshu pointed to was the second house on the right side facing the main gate.

"Girl, the sound seems to be coming from that room"

Jueyu replied.

"Let's go and take a look." After saying that, he took the lead and ran towards the house.

There was no door to the room, not even a piece of linen to cover it.

Wen Shu stood at the door and saw the midwife walking back and forth in the palm-sized room with the baby in her arms.

For some reason, the child kept flapping his hands in his arms and crying non-stop. I don't know if he sensed his mother's death or was just hungry.

The midwife was pacing back and forth with the baby in her arms. When she turned around, she saw Wen Shu standing at the door.

"Oh, sir, you are back. Would you like to see this child? This child is blessed by heaven and needs your help." As he said this, he walked towards Wenshu holding the child.

When he reached the door, he said, "Sir, please look at this child. Even though he is crying now, crying means he is energetic and has strength. This child is fine."

As he said this, he was about to hand the child into Wenshu's arms.

Wenshu took a step back without leaving a trace, and Jueyu behind her reacted quickly and stepped forward to stand in front of Wenshu.

"What's wrong with you, little girl..." The midwife sounded dissatisfied, but she didn't have the energy to argue with Jueyu. The baby in her arms started to make a fuss again, and she didn't want to argue with the little girl Jueyu.

But he looked at Wen Shu with a flattering face and said, "Sir, why don't you take a look at this child?"

Wen Shu shook her head and refused, "I don't know how to control my strength. If I hold the child, I will hurt the child..."

"How could that be possible? Didn't the child survive in your hands and save his life?"

"You can just call me girl. By the way, Auntie, do you know if there are any women nearby who have given birth..."

Wenshu thought that the midwife was well-informed in this matter and might be able to get some information.

As soon as she said this, the midwife's face immediately turned disappointed. "Sir..."

By the way, young lady, I won’t hide it from you. After I was abducted here a few months ago, the leader here sent people out to look for me. He was worried that his child would not have enough food after birth and would starve.

We have searched for dozens of miles, but there is no woman suitable for childbirth, let alone a woman."

When the midwife said this, she felt very sad. She and the doctor were from the same small town. There was a fight between their families over territory, so several families fled here together.

They were dressed in rags, looked skinny, and had little flesh on their bodies. How could they have known that these bandits would stop them and ask if they had a doctor or a midwife?

In exchange for the lives of his family, he was left in this mountain.

This stay has lasted until now.

"If only we had goat's milk..." Wen Shu heard this and looked at the crying child, feeling very sorry.

When talking about this, the midwife said with a look of disappointment, "Originally there was a ewe, and I suggested at that time that 'the woman was thin and the baby might not be full after birth'.

But who knew that Mr. Xie insisted that he didn't believe it, saying that a woman like that wouldn't be able to breastfeed during childbirth.

She didn't listen at all, and in the end the ewe ate it."

"Think of a way to fill the child's stomach first. It's not a good idea to let him starve. If you need anything, just tell that person." He stood at the door and pointed at Shi Liang who had looked over here.

"He will arrange people to cooperate with you."

"Yes, the girl has a kind heart. I carry my child and kowtow to thank you."

As he said this, he was about to kneel down and kowtow to Wenshu.

Wen Shu looked at her holding the child in her arms and stopped her, saying, "Okay, no need for these empty formalities."

"By the way, where is the doctor with you?"

"Oh, the doctor had a lot of blood on his head and is now lying in the next room." Speaking of this, the midwife sighed.

I didn't expect that the doctor, despite his dedicated efforts, would end up like this.

"Okay, take good care of the child, I'll go over there and take a look."

"Girl, don't worry, the child is in my hands, nothing will go wrong!"

Wen Shu took Jue Yu to the next room. Although it was summer, the room was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw a 'bed' made of several pieces of wood near the inner wall. It looked like it could not withstand the wind and rain and would fall apart at any time.

The doctor was leaning against the wall. When he saw Wen Shu coming in, he lifted up the pieces of cloth draped over his body and prepared to sit up.

"Sir, please don't move..." Wen Shu still has great respect for craftsmen, especially doctors, let alone doctors with real skills in this era.

"Sir, are you okay?" Wen Shu didn't know how to start. Speaking of unexpected disasters, these two people were separated from their families at such an old age. What could be more hopeless than this?

"My lady, you must have been born into a wealthy family," he said with a faint smile, but his voice was full of helplessness.

"This world is the same no matter where you go. We might be lucky here. The people here are usually vicious, but they still leave us a bite to eat. If we were with our families, we might become a burden to them."

Wenshu could tell that there was no resentment in the old man's words.

"Then, doctor, what are your plans for the future..." Wen Shu finally asked the question that she had been holding in her heart after walking around the village.
