Obviously she wasn't nervous before, but when she heard the little nurse calling her name, Chen Lishu's heart still jumped uncontrollably, and all kinds of bad thoughts flooded into her mind.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Chen Lishu shook her head, and then briefly told the doctor about her previous medical treatment.
"Have you been taking medicine?"
Chen Lishu nodded: "I have been eating it for about a year."
"Go and lie down, then take off your clothes and I'll check."
Chen Lishu obediently obeyed.
Although it was only a few minutes of inspection, Chen Lishu seemed to have passed for a long time.
"Get up." The doctor finally asked her to get up.
"I haven't found anything abnormal yet, but just in case, I suggest you go for an ultrasound to completely rule out other problems."
"B-ultrasound?"
Before Chen Lishu went to the hospital for check-ups, she always used A-ultrasound. Unexpectedly, the hospital now has B-ultrasound.
The doctor thought she didn't understand, and explained inwardly: "A-ultrasound has certain limitations and is blind. B-ultrasound is the latest testing instrument in our hospital. It can see more comprehensively and specifically. You don't have to be nervous. It doesn't hurt at all. Use it."
It won’t take long to check it out.”
After the doctor finished writing the order, Chen Lishu was led by the nurse to have an ultrasound, and the results showed that everything was normal.
"Persistent infertility may be caused by uterine cold. If western medicine is not effective, I suggest you try traditional Chinese medicine treatment, acupuncture or moxa fumigation to warm the uterus."
"Thank you, doctor." After thanking the doctor, Chen Lishu left the consultation room.
As they were going downstairs, they bumped into a figure, and both of them were stunned for a moment.
"Xu Ning?"
Xu Ning obviously did not expect to meet Chen Lishu in the hospital: "What are you?"
Chen Lishu smiled: "I'm here to check up. How about you?"
Xu Ning shook the file bag in his hand and said with a smile: "I'm here to deliver something to our teacher. Just wait for me. I'll be down in a few minutes."
Chen Lishu nodded: "I'll wait for you on the bench outside."
Not long after, Xu Ning came out from the first floor, glanced around, and came straight towards Chen Lishu.
Chen Lishu smiled and patted the seat next to her to sit down: "It seems like we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Xu Ning: "I can't help it. I really wish I could use one person as two people." I have a heavy workload at school, and I still have to take care of my family when I have time.
"Is Auntie feeling better?"
"It's still the same, good and bad. No matter who gets sick, he'll hit you. My eldest brother is in that situation again. Alas." Xu Ning sighed and looked up at her: "What's wrong with your health?"
Chen Lishu briefly told her about the situation: "There has been no movement, so I came over to take a look. The doctor said that he recommended treatment with traditional Chinese medicine."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Xu Ning said and stood up: "Let's go."
Chen Lishu was puzzled: "Where to go?"
"Go to the hospital, the Municipal Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. The traditional Chinese medicine treatment there is the most authoritative in the province. My classmate's mother is the director there. Let me go and tell you."
…
In a simple guest house near the school, Yang Lili looked at the man opposite and the children beside her, her brows furrowed.
"I haven't already written back, so why are you bringing your children here?"
The man raised his head: "Why don't you discuss such a big thing as going abroad with us?"
Sure enough, not only did his temper change when he went to school, but his ideas also became bigger. When they were at home, they had discussions. It had only been a long time since they had been out, but now they didn't talk about anything at all.
"You haven't come home for the New Year. Don't you miss your mother? You're going abroad again. Can you not go?"
"Don't go?" Yang Lili chuckled and said, "How can I get ahead if I don't go abroad? I'm already thirty years old. Is it possible that I have to live in a muddle like you all my life?"
The man was stunned: "Back then, my family's conditions didn't allow it. Didn't we still need someone to make money and take care of the children?"
"This opportunity to go abroad is something I fought hard for, and I have to go."
The test results have come out, and in July there will be dedicated teachers leading a team to send these students to a school abroad.
"Niuniu, please advise your mother." The man reached out and pushed the child.
The daughter-in-law is so worried that she no longer dares to think about having a son, even if she wants to finish college. This time she brings the child here just to beg her not to go abroad. If she really wants to go abroad, the family may be completely destroyed.
The child is almost 11 years old and can understand the language very well. Knowing that her mother is going abroad, she is very scared. It is such a far away place. If she does not come back, she will be without her mother.
"Mom, can you not go abroad? I promise to study hard and get into college like you."
Yang Lili raised her hand and touched her little face. She was more patient than when talking to men: "Be good, mom will be back in a year at most."
"Mom, I don't want you to go. Dad and grandma said that if you leave, you will never come back. I can't bear to let you go..." Niu Niu threw herself into her arms and started to cry.
Yang Lili's eye circles were a little red.
The man sighed: "You are now a college student. You will find a job after graduation next year. Wouldn't it be nice for us as a family of three to live a simple life together?"
Yang Lili raised her head, suppressed the tears in her eyes, and at the same time reached out to pull the child away from her body: "Niuniu, listen to your father from now on."
After saying this with difficulty, Yang Lili walked outside.
"Mother--"
Listening to the child's cry, Yang Lili raised her hand to cover her mouth, quickened her steps, and left without looking back.
…
It was already past three in the afternoon when Chen Lishu came out of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. Not only did she undergo acupuncture and moxibustion treatment, but she also had a week's supply of traditional Chinese medicine in her hands.
Xu Ning had to leave halfway because she had a class. On the way back, Chen Lishu bought a casserole to boil medicine, and then went home.
In mid-June, Chen Liyuan's job was settled, and she and another classmate went to the electric meter factory to work as an intern accountant.
When Chen Lishu learned the news, it was already a week later. Chen Liyuan had already moved from school to the factory's employee dormitory.
"Why didn't you say anything when you came here? How are you getting used to the life in the factory?"
"Everything is fine, sister, you don't have to worry."
Chen Liyuan was particularly happy and said: "Sister, I can calculate my salary from this month. The average 'apprenticeship' is 18 yuan, but we are considered to have academic qualifications, and there is an additional price subsidy. The factory can give us an extra two yuan."
, when the one-year internship period is over, I will be able to get a salary of 36 yuan."
Chen Liyuan was afraid that she would be worried, so she showed Chen Lishu her meal ticket from the factory: "Sister, it's very cheap for employees to eat here. A serving of noodles only costs 10 cents, and eating meat only costs 25 cents. I don't spend much on anything else."
For money, ten yuan a month is enough, and the remaining ten yuan can be taken home for Li Fei and Li Ru to go to school."
