This Doctor Is Too Wealthy

Chapter 309 - 300 A cry_2

Du Heng no longer had the mind to scold anyone. He asked Zhao Bin, "Are there no other vehicles in your village?""All the cars belong to young people who either haven’t come back or went to work earlier this morning and drove off. I tried to flag down some passing cars, but when they heard it was a difficult labor, they all shook their heads and refused, just like that driver, afraid of getting involved or having someone die in their car."

That’s just how the world is these days. People will even try to sue for compensation if they trip themselves while walking. Anyone would steer clear of transporting a woman in difficult labor.

Everyone wants to be a good person, but they are also afraid their family cannot bear the cost of being one.

Du Heng said no more and turned once more to walk up the slope. "Hurry up and flag down a car. If anyone is willing, have them come up and find us."

Back in the courtyard, the husband of the woman in labor had regained some strength. Listening to the sounds of Huo Yinhua and the others inside the room encouraging his wife, he could only pace anxiously in the courtyard.

Du Heng walked over to the man. Seeing his tension, he tried to make conversation to alleviate his mood. "Don’t worry too much. Our doctor and nurse are inside; everything will be fine."

The man glanced at Du Heng but said nothing.

"What were you doing this morning? Why did you only just come back?"

"I went with my boss to deliver goods out of town this morning. I got the call halfway and turned back immediately."

"Don’t you have any brothers or sisters?"

"My hometown isn’t Jinzhou; it’s Linzhou. My mother and sister-in-law are already on their way."

Listening to the man’s words, Du Heng paused for a moment. A live-in son-in-law?

without pause. "President Du, what kind of prescription is this?"

"The Giving Birth Pill."

Hearing the name, Zhao Bin knew what the medicine was for and asked, "Hasn’t the baby come out yet?"

"The contractions are weak, and the conditions are insufficient, so we can’t force it; the baby can’t be born. Therefore, I’ll prescribe a formula to tonify qi and blood. This will forcefully boost the mother’s qi, helping the baby to be born sooner. However, this method can be somewhat harmful to the mother’s body, so I’ll also add blood-tonifying medicine to minimize the damage and nourish her."

"So, traditional Chinese medicine can also help with childbirth."

Du Heng said impatiently, "Isn’t that obvious?"

Zhao Bin fell silent. His knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine was limited to prescribing commonly used verified prescriptions, and even then, it was more a matter of rigidly applying them by rote.
