Chapter 978 Physical Examination
Late at night, Liyue Harbor was silent. The only sounds were the waves crashing against the shore and the occasional barking of dogs from Chihu Rock.
Only the commercial center of Feiyunpo is brightly lit, like a city that never sleeps.
On this quiet night, the lights were on in the inner room of the "Bubu Lu" clinic, and Bai Zhu was concentrating on giving a comprehensive examination to Ying's daughter "Xi".
Bai Zhu carefully observed the baby's expression. On her pink little face, a pair of big crystal blue eyes trembled slightly.
Then, Bai Zhu gently opened the baby's mouth, checked her tongue, and then took her pulse for a few seconds.
During the entire process, Bai Zhu did not make any unnecessary movements.
After all, examining a baby is a very troublesome job... but of course, it is also an important job.
Ying, leaning against the head of the bed, became increasingly nervous.
She stared at Bai Zhu intently, hoping to see some clues from his face.
However, Bai Zhu had remained silent since the examination, without even a single expression, which made Ying feel even more flustered.
"Is there something wrong with the child?" Ying murmured in her heart.
"No, Sigwen said the child is healthy... Could it be that the child got sick because of the suffering he and I endured while I was kidnapped?"
All kinds of worries kept swirling in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became.
After thinking about it for a while, Ying couldn't suppress her inner anxiety and asked quietly, "How is it, Doctor Bai?"
Bai Zhu did not respond immediately after hearing Ying's voice. He continued to stare at the baby intently. After a minute or two, he slowly withdrew his gaze from the baby.
Then, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a comforting smile, and he said softly, "The child is very healthy, don't worry."
"Besides, when I went to the Qun Yu Pavilion for a consultation a few days ago, Master Ningguang also asked me to examine the child, and everything was normal at the time."
Then, Bai Zhu was a little confused, because she had seen this child with Ningguang and knew that this was Ying's child.
Then why did Ying leave the child to Ningguang's care?
"I don't understand why your child was left to be taken care of by Lady Ningguang?" Bai Zhu looked at Ying suspiciously and asked the question in his mind.
When Ying saw Bai Zhu asking this question, she couldn't help but feel a little troubled.
After all, the thought of being kidnapped and the chain reaction it would trigger sounded too scary.
So, she rolled her eyes and quickly made up an excuse:
"Uh...actually, there's no particular reason. I just ran into a small problem, so I had to temporarily entrust the child to Ningguang's care."
When Bai Zhu heard Ying say something was wrong, he immediately became alert.
Based on his understanding of Ying, this so-called "little thing" is most likely related to adventure, right?
He frowned and advised earnestly, "Alas, I know you and Miss Paimon always like to take on commissions and go on adventures."
"But you are a new mother after all, so take care of yourself!"
Ying felt a little embarrassed when Bai Zhu said this.
She laughed dryly twice and nodded quickly in response: "Yes, yes, you are right, I will pay attention to it next time."
To quickly change the subject, she stretched out her left arm and said to Bai Zhu, "By the way, Doctor Bai, since the child is fine, could you please take my pulse as well?"
Bai Zhu nodded slowly, then stretched out his fingers and gently placed them on Ying's wrist and began to take her pulse.
Time passed minute by minute. After about a minute, Bai Zhu's brows frowned slightly, and his expression did not look very optimistic.
Bai Zhu raised his head, stared at Ying, and said slowly: "Miss Ying, judging from your pulse, your physical condition is indeed not very good."
"I guess you didn't get enough rest and recuperation after giving birth, and you've been working hard for a while, right?"
Ying's heart tightened when she heard Bai Zhu's words, but she did not answer immediately. She just nodded without comment.
After all, her living conditions were indeed very difficult during the time when she was kidnapped by Wendy.
We lived in simple tents and the rest environment was very bad, making it impossible to get enough sleep.
Moreover, their diet is simple and rough, basically consisting of things that can be found on the island, such as seaweed, fish, etc.
Although Wendy occasionally sent some animal meat and cabbage to improve the diet, such food obviously could not provide enough nutrition.
However, the only thing that made Ying feel relieved was that her baby never ran out of milk powder.
When Wendy kidnapped her, she also used the wind to blow away the milk powder, which prevented the child from starving.
Thinking of this, Ying nodded again and replied, "Well... indeed, I encountered some irresistible factors at that time, which prevented me from getting enough rest."
Then, Ying asked anxiously, "With my current physical condition, will I develop any underlying illness?"
Bai Zhu shook his head slowly. Ying's physical fitness was far better than that of ordinary people. Generally speaking, she was not prone to illness.
However, Ying's Qi and blood were indeed slightly deficient.
After careful consideration, Bai Zhu decided to give his own suggestions.
"You don't have to worry too much about this. After all, your physical fitness is quite good."
"However, to ensure your health, I still suggest that you and the child remain in Bulu for a few more days for observation."
When Ying heard that she had to stay in Bubulu for a few days for observation, she couldn't help but murmur softly.
"How many days of observation?" There was a hint of reluctance in her tone.
Seeing this, Bai Zhu asked with concern, "Is there something important that I need you to take care of?"
Ying hesitated for a moment, but finally shook her head, indicating that there was nothing particularly important that required her to deal with personally.
"No, then... I'll trouble you, Doctor Bai, for the next few days."
Bai Zhu smiled slightly, waved his hand gently, and said: "No trouble, no trouble. Just rest here with peace of mind. I will prescribe you a few more medicinal recipes to help you better recuperate.
"You just need to rest and recuperate in the next few days. I believe you will be back to normal soon."
……
Afterwards, Baizhu walked to the table nearby, picked up a brush, and began to write some medicinal recipes and things that needed to be paid attention to on the paper.
At the same time, Ying leaned quietly against the headboard of Bubulu's bed, covered with a warm quilt to avoid catching a cold.
She closed her eyes and let her body and mind rest.
Qiqi brought a crib and assisted Shen He in gently placing Ying's daughter "Xi" on it.
Sora and Paimon took the initiative to take care of the baby. They whispered softly and teased Xi by the bed.
Shen He sat beside Ying's bed, holding a bowl of warm milk in his left hand and a spoon in his right hand, feeding Ying one spoonful after another.
Although Ying repeatedly expressed that she could drink, Shen He insisted on feeding her himself, as this was the only way to make her feel more at ease.
So Ying no longer refused, but obediently enjoyed Shen He's feeding.
The scene was very warm.
Just as Ying was wondering why her husband hadn't come back yet, suddenly, the door was gently pushed open.
It was Shao Yun who walked into the room. He immediately saw Ying leaning against the head of the bed, being fed milk by Shen He one spoonful at a time.
He opened his arms and replied briskly, "I'm back."
As soon as Ying saw her husband coming back, a bright smile immediately spread across her face. She asked with concern, "Husband, you're finally back! How are things going?"
Shao Yun shrugged his shoulders easily, thinking, "Needless to say? Of course it's a perfect solution!"
However, he didn't say this directly, but replied humbly: "Well, it's going pretty well. Considering Ningguang's careful care for our daughter, I won't bother with those things."
After saying that, Shao Yun waved his hand, waving away all the unpleasantness and indicating that everything was over.
After hearing what Shao Yun said, Ying was very satisfied with the result. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Well, this is great!"
Then, Shao Yun walked to the crib and gazed tenderly at his sleeping daughter "Xi".
He gently stretched out his fingers and teased Xi's pink little face, and Xi giggled at his father's teasing.
However, Xi was only a baby less than three months old after all, with limited energy. He soon got tired of playing and fell into a sweet dream.
Shao Yun looked at his daughter's peaceful sleeping face and carefully covered Xi with a blanket, fearing that he would wake her up.
After his daughter fell asleep, Shao Yun wanted to talk to everyone about future plans when he had time.
In order not to wake Xi up, he deliberately lowered his voice and said softly: "While we all have some time now, I want to talk to everyone about some plans for the future."
When Ying heard that Shao Yun wanted to talk about future plans, her eyes immediately lit up and she stared at Shao Yun intently, afraid of missing a word.
"Okay, what's the plan?"
Not only Ying, but Kong, Paimon and Shenhe were also attracted and showed great interest, ready to listen to his plan.
Shao Yun cleared his throat and began to elaborate on the plan in detail.
"After a few days, when you've rested well, Ying, we'll take a boat to Fontaine. Once there, we can look around and see if there are any suitable building materials suppliers."
"If I'm lucky, I might be able to buy a model house that can be easily assembled like building blocks, which would save me a lot of trouble!"
He paused for a moment and then continued, "Of course, it doesn't matter if Fontaine doesn't have the model house I mentioned."
"We can take a boat to Xumi and look for the great architect Kavi."
"We can discuss with him how to build a ranch."
"As I said before, professional matters should be left to professionals."
"Finally, we'll go to Nata! There, we'll start a new life!"
"I have already prepared the land and the animals we want to raise!"
"In the future, the only thing we may have to worry about is shearing the sheep."
