Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family-Chapter 118 - : 116 Sisi Knows the Truth: Ignorant World

“Third Sister-in-law, are you okay? What happened to your hand?”

The two of them had noticed the cloth band bound around Liu Sisi’s hand a while ago, but only asked about it now.

“I’m fine. I just got my hand pierced by shards of tile. Brother Zhang, Ye Lei… is he okay?”

There were many questions she couldn’t ask, couldn’t express, no matter how worried or frightened she was, she didn’t want to show it in front of others.

“With Brother Ye Lei’s impressive skills, you don’t need to worry. He won’t come to harm.”

During the conversation, Zhang Peng pulled out a porcelain bottle from his body and put it beside her: “This is medicine for blade injuries. Apply the powder directly onto the wound morning and night. It’s very effective. We all use this medicine. You should take it.”

“Thank you Brother Zhang, Brother Li Wu.”

Liu Sisi softly thanked them and gratefully glanced at the two before finally stowing away the porcelain bottle.

“It’s getting late, you should rest early, we’ll head back first.”

Seeing Liu Sisi’s reddened eyes and her fragile posture that seemed like a breeze would knock her over, they didn’t know how to comfort her, so they decided to take their leave.

Liu Sisi tightly clutched the money bag, suddenly feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

Why? Ye Lei!

Zhang Peng and Li Wu both returned, so why haven’t you come back?

I know, you couldn’t have killed Big Mouth Li! I believe in you!

But where are you now, won’t you come home anymore? I miss you, I miss you so much…

That night, she sat by the window looking at the crescent moon in the sky, suffering from insomnia.

The next day was Market Day, and not needing to go to the Gan Mansion, Liu Sisi got up early feeling groggy. It felt like there was a fire burning in her throat. Not only did her wound not heal, but it also turned white and started to fester.

Injuries in summer were such a nuisance!

She poured the medicinal powder onto her palm and forcefully wound the cloth band around a few times. Holding the knot with her teeth, she soaked the dirty strip of cloth for washing later and tightly covered the cooked dishes. She then left for the bookstore.

Halfway there, Liu Sisi felt her head grow heavier, her breath quickened and she started sweating profusely, even the road beneath her feet seemed to sway. She sat down and took a rest on the big stone by the roadside. Afterwards, she gritted her teeth, rose to her feet, and forcibly continued walking.

Her foot slipped, she staggered, and her vision went black. A wave of vertigo overcame her and she fainted by the roadside…

When she regained consciousness, she could smell the unique scent of herbal medicine.

After opening her eyes, it took Liu Sisi a while to recognize that she was lying in the same partitioned room of the clinic she once visited. Through the half-opened door, she could clearly see Dr. He who had treated her father-in-law during their previous visit.

Who had brought her here? She wonderes as she got up to put on her shoes, then she left the partitioned room. freewe(b)novel

“Dr. He, thank you for treating me. I am grateful.”

Seeing the previous patient leave, Liu Sisi quickly stepped forward to express her gratitude.

“Young wife, you’re awake, huh? How do you feel, has your health improved? Why not rest some more?” Dr. He still wore a kind face.

Liu Sisi gently shook her head: “I am much better now. I have two children at home, I can’t rest easy here. I should hurry back.”

Dr. He naturally remembered Liu Sisi’s family circumstances: “That’s good! Your wound got infected, plus you didn’t take care of it promptly. Couple that with your recent overexertion, it’s further delaying the healing of your wound. Young wife, money is important, but your health is even more important! Go home! Go home!” As he spoke, he waved at her.

“Thank you, Dr. He for your care. Here is the consultation fee…”

“Someone has already paid your consultation fee,” the medicine pageboy said ahead.

Liu Sisi was taken aback, “Who was it? Medicine pageboy, do you know them?”

“I don’t know, they’re probably not from our small town.”

Whoever was so kind to save her and even brought her to the clinic! She needed to remember this act of kindness and express her gratitude properly.

“Medicine pageboy, did you get a good look at their face? What did they look like, were they tall or short, fat or thin?”

“I didn’t really pay attention to their appearance, there were too many people in the clinic at the time.” And even if he knew, he wouldn’t tell. That’s what the benefactor had instructed.

Off to the side, the medicine pageboy leaned in: “Young wife, Dr. He is having a hard time forgetting your cooking. He was talking about it just a few days ago. I wonder if we will have the chance to taste your cooked dishes in the future.”

“What are you saying? Looking for a beating!”

No sooner had he finished speaking, when Dr. He landed a slap on his forehead.

If they tasted Liu Sisi’s cooking again, wouldn’t that mean someone from the Di Family fell sick again? If he doesn’t beat him up, then whom?

Liu Sisi was also amused!

She couldn’t help but smile, and when she turned her head, she saw a pregnant woman with a big belly next to her, an idea suddenly brightened in her mind!

She hastily sat down on a stool and moved closer to Dr. He: “Dr. He, here’s the thing! I… Sisi is wondering, could you help check on me, if the fetus in my belly is still all right?”

Dr. He was stroking his beard and laughing, he casually asked back: “Fetus? What fetus?”

“I mean, I mean the child in my belly, just the child. I’m pregnant…for a few months now, I want you to help me check.” Liu Sisi said with a guilty conscience.

From the moment she woke up until now, she kept forgetting she’s pregnant. Seeing that pregnant woman, she suddenly remembered that there’s no movement in her belly at all, not even a bulge, and even considered numerous possibilities secretly.

Could it be a complication?… Or maybe there’s no child in her belly? But these words, she would have to hear from the doctor himself before she could confirm!

“Your pulse is weak and stringy, but there’s no trace of any rolling beads. The soft hair in your brow is dense, clearly indicating you’re still a virgin.”

Dr. He leaned in to her ear: “How can a virgin get pregnant? Young wife, didn’t your mother explain to you things about the wedding chamber on your wedding?”

Liu Sisi was dumbfounded and couldn’t say a word!

…

She doesn’t remember how she left the clinic, not to mention asking who her benefactor was.

“Do you have a red mole as big as a broad bean on your wrist? That would be maiden’s blood. Ah! People are ignorant!” Dr. He’s sighing voice still echoed in her ear.

“Ah! You poor creature! You’ve been married for several months and you’re still a virgin. If this were to get out, you would be the laughing stock!”

The words Guihua said rose to the surface of her heart again, making her bite her lip out of annoyance.

She wished she could bury her face in the dirt and never show herself to anyone again!

Virgin, disposal, she must be the only one who would misunderstand.

Suddenly, another thought came into her mind: Why hasn’t Di Yelei touched her? She did not believe that he would be clueless about such things, given his age was much greater than her own!

Especially last time when he was drunk, his fingers were clearly…

If things had already progressed to that point and he hadn’t noticed anything unusual, Liu Sisi would be the first to disbelieve! Thinking so, her face felt as if it was on fire, burning fiercely.
