Shang Siling glared at her daughter: Are you sure you want to do homework or what?
Xiao Duoduoâs mouth turned into a teapot handle, her small body swaying, pleading with her mother to take her to the hospital now to do homework, saying: "I canât lose to my cousin."
Since it was her own son who caused the trouble, Sun Rongfang said to the little girl: "Go upstairs first, have some water, after I take your mom and dad upstairs to rest, Iâll take you over."
Auntie is so nice. Xiao Duoduo jumped happily on the spot.
Shang Siling was exasperated to the point of speechlessness. Walking on the road, she said to Sun Rongfang, "You donât have to spoil her."
Sun Rongfang thought of how she says the same to others about not spoiling her son, but itâs useless.
Once the kids get stubborn, itâs hard for adults to cope. They could only coax the little one upstairs, saying: "Weâll take you to the hospital when Sister Wu brings the car over."
"When is Sister Wu coming?" Xiao Duoduo pursued her question, with her mind set solely on seeing the doctor brother.
Wu Lixuanâs office is now relocated inside Fangzhuang. After receiving the call, it took less than ten minutes to drive there.
Upon arriving and hearing the kid clamoring to go to the hospital, Wu Lixuan thought of something, asked her old friend: "What medicine can be taken for stomach pain?"
"Who has stomach pain?" Sun Rongfang asked, wondering if someone else might have appendicitis like her son.
"A friend of mine has been having stomach pain since last night, itâs not very severe. Thinking to not go to the hospital, just try some medicine first." Wu Lixuan said.
"Is it a man or a woman?" Xie Wanying asked.
"A woman." Wu Lixuan said, puzzled why her friend asked about the patientâs gender first.
The patientâs gender is indeed important for distinguishing the cause of abdominal pain, because it involves gynecological conditions that men donât get. Moreover, many cases of womenâs abdominal pain often relate to gynecology, not the gastrointestinal diseases outsiders mistakenly believe. For example, the death toll from gynecological tumors in women is not less than that from gastrointestinal tumors in women.
Before Xie Wanying could explain in detail to her friend, Sun Rongfang clapped her hands as she remembered, pointing out her daughterâs correct: "Right, check if her menstrual cycle has stopped? Is she pregnant, how old is she, is she married? Some people, you know, donât dare to say theyâre pregnant, only claim they might have indigestion."
Wu Lixuan was surprised by her godmotherâs remark: Isnât being pregnant a good thing, why not dare to say it? She said, "Godmother, sheâs married."
"Whatâs being married got to do with it?" Sun Rongfang could tell her goddaughter, being unmarried, was a bit clueless, "Being married doesnât mean anything. Youâll understand the more you experience."
Shang Siling, married for many years, nodded in agreement with Sun Rongfangâs words.
Donât think of all men as jerks, nor all women as saints. People with bad intentions arenât limited by gender.
Wu Lixuan blinked her eyes, a bit confused, saying: "She has a very good relationship with her husband and a five or six-year-old daughter."
Upon hearing this, as a doctor, Xie Wanying kindly reminded: "Let her get checked at the hospital to find out the cause of the abdominal pain. Abdominal pain, if caused by a significant organ issue inside the abdomen, can be life-threatening."
Taking her friendâs advice, Wu Lixuan picked up the phone to call and show concern for her friend surnamed Weng.
"Sister Weng, is your stomach feeling better?"
"Good, seems to be getting better."
"Did you see a doctor at the hospital?"
"There are too many people waiting at the hospital. I temporarily found a doctor outside, got some medicine to take home."
