Chapter 296: Chapter 257 Mr. Mo Invites a Doctor_3
"What?"
When Mr. Mo heard this, he didn’t react at first. He thought his wife was ill, but the doctor came out with congratulations. It was the first time being a father, and he truly had no experience.
"Young master, Lady, you are going to have a baby, congratulations! Congratulations!" The maid was the first to react. Before, she had always been by Lady’s side and was not a maid for some other Madam, so she really had no experience with a woman’s vomiting reactions.
After hearing the maid’s words, Mr. Mo’s face showed a joyful expression. Delighted, he began pacing around, incessantly talking, and then grabbed the doctor’s hand, saying,
"Doctor, thank you, thank you, hehehe, I’m finally going to be a father."
No wonder Mr. Mo was so happy to hear the news that Madam was with child. They had been married for almost a year and still had no children. They were under the pressure of external gazes, and people whispered in secret whether they were sterile, wondering why after almost a year of marriage, they had not yet had children.
Being doubted about his ability to conceive was understandably embarrassing for Mr. Mo as a man. He could only pretend not to hear the gossiping and couldn’t explain himself to others.
The doctor felt his hand nearly going numb from being gripped and bounced around by this young man.
"Stop, stop, stop, young man, I understand how you feel but you have to let go so I can write a prescription!"
"Doctor, my wife isn’t sick, but she still needs medicine?"
"Oh, I was actually about to prescribe some fetus-preserving medicine for your wife. If your household has good fetus-preserving medicine, like what your wife consumed after she vomited just now, that food can also help her nourish the fetus properly."
The doctor had a keen nose. He smelled the scent of honey in the room, as well as on Madam’s body, but he thought it was honey used to make the beauty-enhancing sweets that women liked to eat.
Mr. Mo didn’t know what his wife had eaten to summon the doctor, but he saw that the food and dishes on the dining table in the outside parlor were untouched, and Madam didn’t look like she had eaten while lying in bed.
"My wife hasn’t eaten yet!"
The doctor shook his head and said,
"No, something’s not right. You must have given your wife something to eat or drink when you went to fetch me."
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Mr. Mo, unable to ask his still sleeping wife, could only turn his gaze to the maid beside him.
The maid, having heard their conversation, nodded and said, "Just now, when the young master went to call the doctor, Lady said she didn’t want to eat after she vomited and wanted to drink honey tea, so I made her a cup of honey water."
Mr. Mo nodded, then turned to the doctor and said, "Doctor, my wife drank honey tea. Do we really not need to prescribe any other antiabortifacient?"
The doctor was quite curious. The honey they were using must be of a special kind to have such a good effect, but as each person’s constitution is different, some people like to eat spicy food after vomiting and it’s fine, and some prefer sour food without any issue.
Ordinary people wouldn’t be so luxurious, right? What’s the need for fetus-preserving medicine? These medications cost money, whereas natural products are of course better than medication."
"Young man, your wife’s condition is good. Since she feels better after drinking honey, and it’s just a mild reaction, it will pass after a month or two. Medicines have side effects, so I don’t recommend giving her any."
After hearing the doctor’s words, Mr. Mo didn’t respond immediately, but looked towards his wife, observing her complexion closely. Madam’s face was rosy in her sleep, which was not much different from her usual complexion if it were not for the pallor from earlier vomiting.
Since the doctor said so, he trusted the doctor’s words and decided to follow his advice. During the period of his wife’s pregnancy, he wouldn’t give her medicine if it wasn’t necessary to avoid affecting the fetus.
And he would also make sure to take good care of his pregnant wife.
Mr. Mo gave the doctor a reward, of course, with a little extra silver, which was also a special red envelope.
Now that his wife was with child, he naturally couldn’t go teaching every day, especially today. Therefore, he went to Madam Tang’s place to share the joyful news.
Without caring that he hadn’t eaten yet, he was eager to let everyone know the joyous message.
When Madam Tang heard Mr. Mo’s good news, she smiled and presented a congratulatory gift.
As relatives with a bit of a connection, Madam Tang also heard the whispers saying the couple had been married for a year without a child.
Especially given their particular marriage, they were impervious to rumors. She had also chatted privately with Mrs. Mo and shared some womanly secrets.
Mrs. Mo shyly didn’t say much in response, and Madam Tang, even though she had given birth and now even had a grandchild, might have just been too fortunate; she also hadn’t used any special prescriptions.
At this moment, hearing that the couple had a child on the way, she was, of course, happy for them.
Mrs. Mo was pregnant and rested for two days. The ladies in the house who were learning musical instruments, of course, heard the news and didn’t stay indifferent. Instead, they took the initiative to visit her courtyard to pay their respects to the teacher who taught them for several months.
Everyone in the house knew by now, and the previous gossips were silenced.
Lady Tang had also scoffed in secret yet never said anything in front of others, merely adding a word or two to the gossip among the maids in her own courtyard.
