Chapter 233 There is still hope
"What's going on? Sit down and talk."
It was inconvenient for Cui to help her, so Yuxiu hurried over and helped the shaky Second Madam sit down on a soft chair beside her.
"Le Wan, something happened to Le Wan..."
The second wife looked very anxious. She held Yuxiu's hand and tears began to fall from her eyes.
There was no time to listen to her whole story. Cui asked a few simple questions and learned that Xu Lewan accidentally fell a few days ago and had some spotting on the spot. After asking a doctor to come and take her pulse, she found out that she was more than a month pregnant.
When the Second Lady received the news, she went to find Princess Ning and asked her to ask for help in inviting the imperial physician to take a look.
It was confirmed that both the adult and the child were fine, but because it was a miscarriage, they had to rest in bed and could not get up and move around until the baby in the belly was firmly seated.
This was good, and the Second Madam was relieved. The Young Master of the Luo family also ran around to personally watch over the boiling of medicine, so she thought that nothing would happen again.
But early this morning, Xu Lewan's personal maid came running back to report that the young lady had lost a lot of blood last night and was about to die.
Now Princess Ning had already gone there with her people. In her grief, the Second Lady thought of Cui and hurried over.
"Then there's no time to lose, let's go there now."
After hearing what the second lady said, Cui's expression became very solemn, and she immediately shouted to the maids outside.
"Pack up the things you need, and have someone prepare the carriage."
Zi Su and the others responded in unison, then split up and quickly brought out the medicine box.
Since Cui was going to rescue people, Yuxiu of course had to accompany her the whole time. At this time, Xu Qinghe also got the news and wanted to go with them, but was sent away by Cui.
"Just wait in the mansion. We are going to rescue people, not to fight. We don't need so many people."
When they arrived at the Luo family's house in a carriage, there were quite a few people coming in and out of the Luo family's yard.
With the second lady leading the way, they entered the courtyard where Xu Lewan lived very smoothly.
At this time, the hall was full of women from the Luo family. No matter what they were thinking, they all looked very anxious.
When they saw Yuxiu and the others, everyone stood up. Mrs. Luo originally wanted to say a few words to the Second Lady, but no one had the time to pay attention to her.
"Madam Cui, this way please."
The second lady's eyes were cold as she glanced at the women of the Luo family one by one, but she didn't say much. She turned around and invited Cui and Yuxiu into the inner room.
Just now when she was outside, Yuxiu smelled a faint smell of blood. Now that she had come inside, the smell of blood became even stronger.
Princess Ning was sitting beside Xu Lewan's bed, and Mother Qiu was slowly feeding her with a bowl of ginseng soup.
Xu Lewan on the bed had a pale face, and even her lips were bloodless. The first time Yuxiu looked at her, she found that there was a strong aura of death lingering around her.
"Lewan..."
When the second wife saw her daughter like this, she could no longer control her emotions and couldn't help but cry.
"It's great that Madam Cui is here. Please come and help..."
Princess Ning had no time to comfort the Second Lady, so she quickly stood up and gave her seat to Cui.
This was a matter of life and death, so Cui didn't hesitate to walk to the bed and reached out to take Xu Lewan's arm out from under the quilt.
Yuxiu quickly pushed the small round stool in front of the bed forward and helped Cui sit on it carefully.
"Aunt Cui..."
Xu Lewan opened her eyes weakly and shouted with difficulty, but was quickly stopped by Cui.
"Don't talk yet, let me take your pulse."
Xu Lewan obediently shut her mouth and looked at her biological mother, the Second Madam, with a longing look.
Seeing her daughter, who was full of life some time ago, become like this now, the second wife felt heartbroken.
But now was not the time to pursue responsibility, so she had to suppress her anger and stare at Cui's pulse-taking movements.
"Fortunately, we arrived in time and there is still hope..."
After Cui finished taking the patient's pulse, her tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed a little.
"Bring the silver needle here."
Yuxiu quickly helped to take out the silver needle, and under Cui's instructions, she lifted the quilt and helped Xu Lewan undress.
After a smooth acupuncture treatment, everyone could clearly feel that Xu Lewan's breathing had become much smoother.
The fetus in the belly might have turned into blood long ago. Cui felt a little regretful, but she did not say it out loud to provoke Xu Lewan at this time.
He checked the amount of bleeding again and found that it had stopped quickly. He nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that the Second Madam was looking at him very nervously, he smiled slightly and said soothingly:
"Put your heart back in your stomach, it's no big deal."
She winked at Yuxiu and pointed at the teacup on the table and said:
"Her lips are so dry and cracked. Please help her drink some hot water."
Yuxiu understood immediately. Mother Qiu wanted to do it for her, but she refused. She turned her back to everyone and poured half a bowl of warm water herself. In fact, she added some spiritual spring water to it and then slowly fed it into Xu Lewan's mouth.
"How is Wan'er? I have invited Dr. Qian, a gynecologist..."
At this moment, a hoarse male voice was heard from outside. After a sound of footsteps, the curtain of the inner room was opened, and a somewhat disheveled young man came in.
Yuxiu put down the bowl and looked towards him. She saw that the man was probably less than 20 years old. He looked a little thin, but quite tall, with handsome features. If it weren't for the fact that he was covered in mud and had some twigs and weeds in his hair, he should have been an elegant young man.
It seems that this is Xu Lewan’s husband, the eldest son of the Luo family.
Seeing that everyone turned to look at him, Mr. Luo patted himself casually and asked in a low voice:
"Wan'er is asleep?"
"Why? Are you disappointed that you can't die?"
The second wife heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that her daughter was not seriously injured. Now that she saw her son-in-law, she found an outlet for her anger.
"Le Wan is lying on the bed, dying. What are you still doing outside? Don't tell me to call a doctor. Don't you have more than a hundred people in your house, and is there no one who can help call a doctor?"
She had thought that the boy from the Luo family was reliable, so she felt at ease to marry her daughter to him. However, she had no idea that this guy would be so confused at the most critical moment.
"That's not the case, mother-in-law, please calm down first..."
Young Master Luo was a little anxious and waved his hands quickly to explain.
"Doctor Qian is not someone that ordinary people can hire..."
Xu Lewan suddenly bled a lot last night, so he invited many doctors, even two imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau. However, they prescribed a lot of medicines, but none of them had any effect after she took them.
