Chapter 4: Looking for a Doctor

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Sanlang took the money and ran to the old doctor’s house in the village. He said anxiously, “Doctor Wu, quickly go to my house and save my children’s mother. After she gave birth to Simei, she has been bleeding non-stop.”

Doctor Wu was an old man in his sixties. He had come to the village three years ago and knew medical skills. He settled down in the village and anyone who had a headache or fever was willing to look for him.

Su Sanlang stuffed all the copper coins into Wu’s arms.

Old Wu noticed that there was still a little dried blood on the copper coins. He glanced at Su Sanlang and said, “Although I’m not good at tending to women, I’ll go take a look since you’re so anxious.”

Old Wu turned to get the medical kit and followed Su Sanlang out.

Su Sanlang walked quickly, which showed how anxious he was.

Old Wu could not help but give Su Sanlang a second look. He was a dark-skinned man in his thirties, with many patches on his clothes and a hole in his shoe.

His back was a little hunched, and he couldn’t tell that he loved his wife so much.

When he followed Su Sanlang to the Su residence, they ran into Madam Wang, who was beating up Su Sanmei.

“I’ll beat you to death, you little shit. Thief. How dare you steal from my family. Bah…”

Madam Wang’s curses were filled with malice.

Su Sanmei jumped in pain and begged for mercy, “Grandma, I was wrong. Don’t hit me…”

“Mother.”

Su Sanlang’s heart ached. When Madam Wang hit Su Sanmei, it was not a light punishment. Instead, she swung a stick with strong force. She grabbed Su Sanmei by the hair as she kept struggling and running. Madam Wang cursed as she hit her.

Madam Wang let go at the sounds of Su Sanlang’s voice. Su Sanmei immediately ran over to Su Sanlang’s side. Her face was covered in tears, but she did not dare to say anything bad about Madam Wang.

Su Sanlang’s heart ached, but he could only put Su Sanmei aside for the time being. He said to Old Wu, “Doctor Wu, come with me.”

Old Wu nodded and followed Su Sanlang to the back room.

He pushed the door open. It was pitch dark inside and smelled strongly of blood.

Old Wu bent down to enter. Su Sanlang held Su Sanmei’s hand and followed worriedly.

Madam Zhao was lying unconscious on the bed. Old Wu took her pulse and said, “It’s weakness caused by excessive bleeding. I’ll stop her bleeding first, but she would still have to take some medicine. Her body is too weak. If she wants to live, she cannot give birth again in the future. If she does, she’ll die.”

Madam Zhao’s pulse was really weak, as if she was hanging on by a thread. It was a miracle that she could hold on until he arrived.

However, after this, she would definitely not be able to give birth in the future.

When Su Sanlang heard this, he did not care much about Madam Zhao not being able to give birth again. Instead, he sighed with relief and said, “As long as my mother is safe.”

If she couldn’t have more children, then so be it. She’d already given birth to four children for him, and it wasn’t as if they didn’t have sons. He had no right to blame her. This was his fate.

When Old Wu heard his sigh, he said as he administered acupuncture to Madam Zhao, “Your children’s mother can be saved this time. If it had been any later, even an immortal wouldn’t have been able to save her. Come back with me later and get some medicine to boil for her to drink. Her body is very weak, and she needs to rest in bed for the next two months.”

Madam Zhao’s body was very weak. She was pregnant, but she was extremely thin. When he took her pulse, he knew that she often starved. There was no color on her face, and her health was not good. This family was not simple. He did not know if it was good or bad for her to survive.

When Su Sanlang heard this, he clenched his fists and replied, “Thank you, Doctor Wu. I understand.”

“Your youngest daughter is awake.”

When Old Wu was putting away his needles, he found that Su Xiaolu had woken up. The newborn baby was very cute. When she woke up, she did not cry or make a fuss. Her eyes seemed to be looking at him.

She was so obedient that Old Wu could not help but smile. She was a good child.

Su Sanlang looked over, and Su Xiaolu’s eyes immediately turned to him. Although her vision was a little blurry, Su Xiaolu still recognized him.

This man was her father.

She had been awake for a while and had heard the conversation between her father and the doctor. She had a preliminary impression of the couple.

His family was in a difficult situation, but his parents were good parents.

“Simei, be good. Don’t cry. Father will give you sugar syrup later.”

Su Xiaolu’s obedience almost softened Su Sanlang’s heart. For some reason, he felt that his newborn daughter could understand him.

She hadn’t eaten for hours after she was born but she didn’t cry. She looked at him, yawned, and obediently closed her eyes again to sleep.

Su Xiaolu fell asleep again, mainly because she felt hungry, but there was definitely nothing to eat at this time. She decided that she should sleep, as she would not be hungry in her sleep.

However, she did not really sleep. Instead, she let her consciousness enter the Space to receive the baptism of spiritual energy.

She had accepted the fact that she had been reborn as a fetus.

Besides, she still had the Space. It wasn’t very useful now, but she would grow up. When she could walk and run, it would be very useful.

When she entered the Space, it was like her soul had come here, while her body was sleeping outside the Space.

She didn’t have to worry about being found out, and she could clean up the Space’s land while she slept. It felt good.

“How obedient. In my sixty years of living, I’ve never seen such an obedient child.”

Old Wu thought that if someone spoke, the baby would start crying. Unexpectedly, she didn’t. He couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

Su Sanmei said softly, “Dad, Simei couldn’t stop crying just now.”

Su Sanlang was suddenly nervous. “Doctor Wu, take a look at my daughter. Is there something wrong?”

Thinking of his two foolish sons, Su Sanlang’s heart tightened, afraid that there was something wrong with his fourth daughter.

Old Wu packed up the silver needles and smiled. “Your daughter is very healthy. Her complexion is rosy and her eyes are bright. She can’t be any healthier.”

Su Sanlang relaxed. He was glad that the baby was okay.

Old Wu put away the medicine box and said to Su Sanlang, “Alright, the bleeding has stopped. Just take the medicine and rest well later.”

Su Sanlang heaved a sigh of relief and was about to follow Old Wu back to get the medicine when he heard the sound of Old Master Su returning home. Then, he heard Madam Wang wailing and complaining.

“Old man, you have to help me. Sanlang, this unfilial son, has rebelled…”

Su Sanlang frowned, his eyes filled with indescribable pain.

Old Wu sighed softly and said, “If you’re not free, let your daughter go with me to get the medicine.”

Su Sanlang looked at Old Wu gratefully, then said to Su Sanmei, “Sanmei, go back with Doctor Wu to get medicine for your mother.”

Su Sanmei nodded obediently and followed Old Wu out.

Su Sanlang closed the door softly and headed for the outer room. He knew that there would be a disaster waiting for him. He understood what it was, but deep down, he couldn’t help but hope for a miracle. He was his parents’ biological son. They wouldn’t force his family to die.
