I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 506: Chapter 505: Triplets

The eldest daughter-in-law and the fifth daughter-in-law had also arrived by this time, along with the second daughter-in-law. They watched the fourth family being exiled, realizing it might be difficult to see them again. Once exiled, there was no need for them to return to the main family during holidays!

They had no chance to come back to make their presence felt unless the elderly passed away.

The three daughters-in-law, all shrewd, dared not ask questions when faced with this situation. Seeing Wei Zhongxun kneeling there, they all looked quite surprised.

Wei Zhongxun was not a member of the Tian Family. Why was he kneeling in the hall of the ancestral home, and to whom was he kneeling? Among them, the most senior and respected was Tian Heming. However, given Zhongxun’s status, he didn’t need to perform such a grand gesture to Tian Heming!

The second daughter-in-law felt a bit gossipy, and both the eldest and fifth daughters-in-law hesitated about going in, as they preferred learning about certain things in private rather than openly.

No one inside called for them, so the eldest and fifth daughters-in-law pretended not to understand and didn’t go in. Although the second daughter-in-law wanted to go in, seeing the other two unmoved, she dared not act as the forerunner.

Inside, Beisitian said nothing, and Wei Zhongxun continued kneeling. Tian Heming and Dong Fengzhen wanted to say a few kind words, but seeing the indifference on Beisitian’s face, they didn’t know how to proceed, and Tian Heming sighed deeply.

Beisitian shot a faint glance at Wei Zhongxun. Observing her expression closely, he naturally noticed the warning in her eyes.

Zhongxun became even more cautious, whispering, ”Master, I acted recklessly out of concern for my father’s rescue and never promised Tian Ying anything verbally or in writing. Besides, we’ve met no more than five times.”

Indeed, he felt wronged, faced with such a shameless and self-deluded woman, what could he do? Wei Zhongxun believed Tian Ying added a substantial Chapter to his reputation as a romantic, not only embarrassing him but also displeasing Beisitian.

Since the incident, Wei Zhongxun had not brought up the matter of rescuing his father. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to, but because Wei Yuanqing forbade him from mentioning it.

Zhongxun even considered achieving success quickly to rescue his father himself, but his father couldn’t wait, so he seized the opportunity to subtly plead with Beisitian earlier.

Seeing him proactively disclose the matter, Beisitian’s anger diminished slightly. Although Tian Family was her maternal home, she couldn’t indulge them in everything, especially in this case.

If Tian Heming couldn’t make the right decision, she would have to decide herself.

Beisitian had hardly any demands on the Tian Family. With the Tian Family helping her with some herbal medicine, she avoided many troubles. The Tian Family also didn’t become overly proud due to this harmonious dynamic, which she was reluctant to disrupt.

Because of Tian Heming’s correct handling of the issue, it didn’t cause much trouble, but he knew if anyone in the Tian Family acted up again, Beisitian would certainly become estranged from them.

He was getting old and would pass away one day. Neither the eldest nor the fifth could hold the family together; the only one he could count on was Beisitian’s apprentice, Tian Zhi!

However, Tian Zhi hadn’t graduated yet and was still growing under Beisitian’s supervision, unable to become the pillar of the Tian Family.

Tian Heming sighed. Perhaps because Beisitian’s ability and influence were too strong, he could no longer treat her simply as a granddaughter. So many interests were tied together that he naturally associated her with the family’s benefits and future.

In this regard, he was far inferior to his wife, Dong Fengzhen, whose treatment of Beisitian was reminiscent of their youngest daughter Mei Jun. This comforted Tian Heming but also made him feel a bit ashamed.

This incident thus faded away, and Wei Zhongxun dared not casually flirt again, especially with straightforward, self-deluded women like Tian Ying.

Three months flew by. On this day, Dong Fengzhen arrived early at Beisitian’s small courtyard, and Mrs. Qin was also ready. Zheng Lulu, who promised to help yesterday, accompanied them to the hospital.

Luo Anguo originally intended to go as well, but since the group consisted solely of women, he thought it inappropriate. The space for the calligraphy shop had been found and was undergoing renovation. He figured it was better to supervise the workers to prevent them from skimping on materials or labor.

At the maternity and child health hospital, Professor Qiu was already waiting for them. Seeing Beisitian, she smiled, ”Your belly is quite large, it doesn’t look like just one baby.”

She was already certain it wasn’t a single pregnancy, but people like them never spoke definitively, always leaving some possibilities open.

There weren’t many people in the place for prenatal check-ups. When Beisitian arrived, there were only a few pregnant women, each talking to their respective family members.

Beisitian lay on the bed after entering the room, a slippery substance spread on her belly, and began the examination. The doctor, receiving instructions from Professor Qiu and seeing the shadow inside, smiled and said, ”Congratulations, it’s triplets!”

Beisitian was stunned.

The examining doctor, who wasn’t even thirty, was somewhat excited, ”I’ve been working for almost ten years and rarely see triplets!”

Despite knowing that delivering triplets would be challenging and raising them would require significant effort, Beisitian was thrilled at the thought of soon having three babies. A warm joy spread from her heart. She and Luo Xudong were about to become a family of five.

”They’re too small now to tell if they are boys or girls; come back later when they’re bigger,” the doctor said with a smile.

Due to the preference for boys over girls, hospitals had begun issuing notices forbidding staff from revealing the gender of the fetus to families. However, those with connections could still find out privately. After all, with the one-child policy, everyone wanted a boy!

Beisitian smiled lightly. She didn’t care much if they were boys or girls; they were her children. Even if they were girls, she wouldn’t let them live an ordinary life, depending on a man.

The results could be produced instantly on the spot; there was no need to wait. Outside, Mrs. Qin and Dong Fengzhen felt both worried and happy upon hearing the news. Triplets were rare, and under the one-child policy, having three children was a substantial backing. But giving birth to triplets was challenging, whether naturally or via C-section. The risks were greater than with typical pregnancies, and the babies often couldn’t be carried to full term. In any case, this made Beisitian an even more protected figure for everyone, which amused her because she didn’t feel particularly burdened herself.

However, given that it was triplets, she needed to consider her physical condition more carefully, and seek advice from Dong Fengzhen and Professor Qiu. If she could deliver naturally, she still preferred to do so.
