Chapter 409: Longing for Love (23)
When Xiaohong saw the person who opened the door, she hurried forward to introduce herself, "Hello, ma'am. We are doctors from Jishiditang. We were invited by your son Zhao Tiezhu to deliver your daughter-in-law."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your help. Please come in. My daughter-in-law is walking around the room preparing for delivery."
"Ok."
Afterwards, the two of them came to the delivery room under the guidance of the old lady. After Ji Xiao used her spiritual sense to check the mother's condition, she said to her, "Auntie, please prepare a basin of warm water for me. I will check her first."
"Okay, okay, doctor, is there anything else you need me to prepare?"
"We have prepared everything else. You just need to prepare hot water. When you are ready, ask me, your maid, to get it."
"No, no thanks, I'll just deliver it to you."
"It's okay. She's very strong. Don't worry."
While explaining things, Ji Xiao walked to the woman in labor and helped her sit down on the bed. Then she sat down on the stool that Xiaohong brought over.
After Aunt Zhao left, Ji Xiao thought about letting Xiaohong go with her, after all, she was quick.
"You can come along too, and put the medicine box on the table!"
"Ok."
After everyone was gone in the room, Ji Xiao began to take Madam Zhao's pulse.
After taking the pulse, Ji Xiao asked, "Does your family know about your condition?"
"I know." Madam Zhao replied, and then asked: "Doctor, what about my child..."
"It's okay, but you should know that after you get together, the child you give birth to will always be different from ordinary people."
"It doesn't matter. If they can't accept it, I will take the children back to the mountains."
"Okay! But you don't have to worry. After all, as the child of the Begonia Flower Demon, even if he is special, he won't be outrageous."
"Ah."
As the two finished their conversation, the Begonia Flower Demon began to feel pain again. Ji Xiao helped her lie down, and then taught her how to breathe and how to exert force.
Soon, Xiaohong came in with hot water, and Ji Xiao put on her surgical gown. After all, the woman in labor in front of her was not an ordinary person, and her magic would not scare people.
After Xiaohong came in, she stood aside to assist her.
Outside, Zhao Tiezhu also rushed back and was waiting outside the door with his mother.
"Mom, what's the matter with my wife? Why hasn't she given birth yet?" Zhao Tiezhu panted and asked his mother anxiously.
"Now, I don't know either, but the doctor is in there, so everything will be fine. Just be quiet, you're very annoyed."
I don’t know how much time had passed, but as soon as the sun reached the top of my head, I heard a child crying in the house.
"Wow——" A crisp cry echoed throughout the room, and the plants in the Zhao family's yard instantly became much more energetic, and then the room was filled with the fragrance of crabapple flowers.
"It's born! It's born!" Zhao Tiezhu, who heard the baby crying outside, shouted excitedly.
Ji Xiao first held the child to Zhao's wife to show her. The child's skin was a light pink, and he had a strong scent of crabapple flowers on his body. There was a crabapple flower birthmark on his right shoulder.
"The child is still young. Once she cries, there will be a strong floral scent all around her body, and even further away. I will place a restriction in her body, and when she reaches the age of 15, the restriction will be lifted automatically. Or when she is five years old, I will send her to Jingsi Zhai to study."
Madam Zhao looked at her child with eyes full of love.
Her face was pale, and she said weakly to Ji Xiao: "Thank you, I will send her to a private school when she is five years old."
Then Ji Xiao handed the child to Xiaohong who was standing beside her, and she began to clean up for Mrs. Zhao.
Xiaohong carefully took the child, put her aside, and gently wiped her body with a wet cloth.
Then he dressed her, wrapped her in a thin blanket, and carried her out the door.
"Congratulations, Madam and Mr. Zhao, it's a girl."
Zhao Tiezhu excitedly stepped forward and looked at the child in Xiaohong's arms. Then he asked with a worried look on his face, "How is my wife?"
"Mrs. Zhao is in good condition. I'll take the child in first."
Xiaohong carried the child back into the house. After putting the child next to Mrs. Zhao, she began to pack up the medicine box.
Afterwards, Ji Xiao walked out of the room and gave some instructions to Zhao Tiezhu and Aunt Zhao.
After seeing off Ji Xiao and her servant, Aunt Zhao went to the kitchen to prepare lunch and also prepare Miss Zhao's postpartum meals.
After Ji Xiao and the others left, Zhao Tiezhu rushed into the house eagerly.
He quietly came to the bed of the mother and daughter and squatted in front of the bed watching them. Although Zhao Tiezhu was not very good at making money, he really loved his wife.
When Aunt Zhao came out after cooking and didn't see him, she knew where he was.
Although her daughter-in-law was a demon, she had never done anything bad. On the contrary, after marrying her son, she kept the house in order and was very filial to her, so she liked her very much.
……
When they went back, they walked slowly. This time they were not in a hurry to go back. After all, Xiangliu was there, so it didn't matter whether she went back or not.
This is the inconvenience of not having other doctors, so Ji Xiao said to Xiao Hong who was following behind him: "We still need to train some more people to be doctors. How are the clinics that we opened before?"
"Some are still open, some are no longer open, but the ones that are open have changed owners."
"Okay, never mind. After all, hundreds of years have passed."
After thinking for a while, Ji Xiao decided to expand the scale of the clinic, find some young people with potential, take them as apprentices, and teach them medical skills.
"Xiaohong, post a notice tomorrow saying that Jishidiang is recruiting apprentices. There is no limit on gender. As long as you want to learn and have talent, you can join," Ji Xiao ordered.
"Yes, master. But... will this work?" Xiaohong was a little confused.
"It's okay. We should always give it a try. If we can get a few good disciples, it will be a good thing. If not, we can just look for more slowly." Ji Xiao said calmly.
The master and servant walked and talked, and before they knew it, they returned to Jishidiang.
Because it was noon and there were not many people coming to the clinic to see a doctor. Most of them had gone back to rest or have lunch.
The main thing is that unless it is an emergency, Jishidiang will not see patients at noon.
Even if the people in the clinic are not ordinary people, there will always be ordinary people. As long as they are human, they need rest.
Moreover, every time it was noon, Ji Xiao didn't want to work. What's more, as a future doctor or female physician, if you don't have a good rest in the morning and at noon, you will not be in a good mental state to see patients in the afternoon.
Medical malpractice is a serious matter wherever it occurs, even in the chaotic ancient times.
