Chapter 127 – Xu Jinning’s Astonishment
However, she had to wait a bit longer, wait until she was done with her recent busyness, and then go over.
At this time, Xu Jinning didn’t know yet that Lin Wangshu was about to go to Qinghe Production Brigade soon, and she was also about to meet the female protagonist in the book Real and Fake Rich Daughter.
Xu Jinning was brought to the county hospital for a checkup by Xu Aiguo once again.
“At the moment, the recovery is going quite well. Keep it up and eat more nutritious food.”
The doctor said after the examination.
This time, besides Xu Jinning and Xu Aiguo, Song Yi was also listening nearby.
Song Yi had been working at the county hospital for some time now, and he had quite a few patients coming to him for consultations every day.
Although he was skilled in surgical operations, he could also handle other areas.
People who came to the county hospital for treatment, upon hearing that he was a military doctor who had retired and come here, all wanted to consult with him.
Today, upon learning that Xu Aiguo brought Xu Jinning for a checkup, Song Yi, despite being busy, came to take a look and greet them.
If it weren’t for the experienced doctor in front of him who was good at traditional Chinese medicine and was adjusting his body, he might have treated his own sister-in-law.
However, one should stick to their expertise.
Xu Aiguo breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the experienced doctor’s words.
The recent adjustments and care had some effect.
In fact, Xu Jinning could naturally feel the changes in her body during this period.
Firstly, she had gained some weight and grown taller. The reason she could feel it was because the original owner was too thin before, although not to the point of being skin and bones, but it was close.
During this period, her family occasionally fed her, which made her gain some weight.
Her nutrition had also improved.
When she first transmigrated, she would get dizzy as soon as she stood up, and once she almost fainted.
Xu Jinning knew it was due to low blood sugar.
However, it’s much better now. As long as she doesn’t crouch for too long or suddenly stand up, she’s generally fine.
Moreover, perhaps it’s related to persistently applying snowflake cream during this period, her skin has improved a lot and become much fairer.
Now, she’s finally not the same little tanned girl she was at the beginning.
Of course, the most different thing is her eyes.
At the beginning, her eyes didn’t have much brilliance, they were clear but without much emotional fluctuation. And now, while they’re still clear, they’ve become brighter, especially when looking at family, there’s warmth in her eyes.
After seeing the doctor, Xu Aiguo bid farewell to Song Yi with Xu Jinning and prepared to leave the hospital.
“Uncle, if there’s anything you need to come here for in the future, feel free to find me,” Song Yi said.
“Okay, I got it,” Xu Aiguo agreed.
“Oh, isn’t this our Dr. Song?” Just as the three were about to part ways, they suddenly heard a sarcastic male voice.
A middle-aged man walked over, sizing up Song Yi and Xu Aiguo, his face had a smile, but it lacked warmth.
Xu Jinning instinctively didn’t like this man.
“Hello, Dr. Zhong,” Song Yi greeted.
Dr. Zhong smiled, as if about to say something, when a young man supporting a pregnant woman with a large belly walked over.
“Dr. Zhong, our baby in my wife’s belly isn’t doing well, does she need to be hospitalized?” Both the young man and the pregnant woman had expressions of worry and concern, especially the pregnant woman, who held her belly with one hand, her brows furrowed in deep worry.
They looked at Dr. Zhong with pleading eyes.
Dr. Zhong’s expression became serious, saying, “Yes, she needs to be hospitalized to save the baby. If all goes well, there might still be hope for the baby to be born. Otherwise, it’s likely to be a fatal situation.”
“But whether to stay in the hospital or not depends on you; we won’t force it.”
“We’ll stay, we’ll stay,” the young man hurriedly replied.
Dr. Zhong seemed somewhat satisfied with the man’s answer, his expression relaxing a bit as he nodded. “Alright, I’ll arrange a hospital room for you now. Both rooms and beds are in high demand, but considering the urgency of the situation, I managed to free up a room and a bed.”
“Yes, thank you, Dr. Zhong.”
“Dr. Song, I have other matters to attend to. Let’s talk later.”
After saying that, Dr. Zhong left.
Meanwhile, the young couple hadn’t left yet.
“Why did you agree to hospitalization? Even though I’m due to give birth in a few days, I don’t know how much money it will cost for the hospital stay,” the pregnant wife expressed her worries.
“No matter how much it costs, you and the baby are the most important. If we don’t have enough money, I’ll borrow it. You and the baby must be safe.”
“But what if that doctor was just scaring us? What if the tests were wrong? The village doctors and midwives all said there’s nothing wrong with this pregnancy. Maybe we should go back to the village to give birth.”
“No, I can’t take that risk, better safe than sorry.”
“… Well, alright. But hey, what’s that ‘panda blood’ the doctor mentioned? I know what a bear is, I know what a cat is, but I have no idea what panda blood is. What kind of blood is it, and why did he say I’m in danger…”
“I don’t know either. It’s probably some medical term.”
“Deng Cuicui, we’ve freed up a room for you. Hurry up and come to complete the hospitalization process.” At this moment, a nurse was calling from a distance.
“Oh, Deng Cuicui is here. Coming!” The pregnant woman’s husband called out urgently.
He then supported his wife step by step towards the nurse.
“Ningning, what’s wrong with you?” Song Yi was about to leave when he saw his younger sister looking at the back of the couple, furrowing her brows as if deep in thought.
Xu Jinning snapped out of her thoughts and asked, “Big Brother Song Yi, I want to ask you, what’s the full name of that Dr. Zhong? Is he not on good terms with you?”
“Little girl, you actually noticed.” Song Yi chuckled.
“Well, Dr. Zhong and I do have some conflicting views…” Song Yi explained, and Xu Jinning understood the reason.
It turned out that before Song Yi arrived, the county hospital had planned to promote Dr. Zhong to chief physician. Dr. Zhong before and now held the position of deputy chief physician.
Although it’s just one word of difference in their titles, it signifies a significant difference.
Dr. Zhong is also the son-in-law of the hospital director and the head of the obstetrics and gynecology department, and he was the one designated to be promoted to chief physician this time.
Originally, this promotion was a sure thing.
But then Song Yi arrived.
And as soon as he arrived, the higher-ups directly allocated the only position of chief physician to Song Yi.
With Song Yi obtaining this title and position, Dr. Zhong lost his chance.
So, it’s understandable that Dr. Zhong’s attitude towards Song Yi is somewhat resentful.
“By the way, Dr. Zhong’s full name is Zhong Dequan.”
“Why are you interested in Dr. Zhong’s affairs?” Song Yi jokingly asked.
At that moment, when Dr. Zhong’s full name was spoken by Song Yi, Xu Jinning’s eyes were filled with astonishment.
Zhong Dequan, obstetrics and gynecology, Deng Cuicui, panda blood… It all clicked, everything fell into place…
**TN
RH negative blood, compared with the common A, B and O types, is a variety highly unusual in China. With only 0.1% to 0.3% of the population having this blood running through their veins, it is therefore referred to as “panda blood.”
He sounds like a con artist, cause why did he speak to that couple like that. And he spoke in a way as if he had a premonition. I don’t like it.
