Chapter 1072: Chapter 1054: This Is the Difference Chapter 1072: Chapter 1054: This Is the Difference “Thank you,” Liu Juan also inexplicably believed in Tang Yuxin.

She didn’t trust anyone else’s words.

That day, when she almost miscarried, no matter how many nice things Bai Qing said to her, no matter how many times he reassured her, Liu Juan stubbornly didn’t sleep all night.

Yet here, with just a few words from Tang Yuxin, Liu Juan seemed to listen as if they were imperial edicts.

This wasn’t just trust, it was unwavering belief.

Bai Qing stood on the side, feeling so envious it hurt.

Gu Ning reached out and patted his shoulder, “She was scared.

Don’t you understand what a doctor means to a patient?” Gu Ning had seen such reactions many times in the hospital.

Sometimes, just a word from Tang Yuxin could reignite a patient’s hope and turn someone who was sick and despondent into someone brimming with vitality.

And these were things that nobody else could do.

The only ones who could were the doctors.

Bai Qing understood and let out a hehe of laughter.

“This time, we really owe you a lot.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t even know what to do.” His wife might not have been killed by the earthquake, but in the end, she could have died giving birth.

Then he would be without a wife and child.

What would he have left to live for?

He’d rather die alongside his wife and child.

“We’ll go fetch some more water and heat up some for them to use.”
Bai Qing was also a man who doted on his wife, feeling no need for the notion of ‘gentlemen staying away from the stove.’ It was his own wife, and he doted on her himself, what business was it of anyone else’s?

In this regard, his temperament was quite in sync with Gu Ning’s.

Although the two men were very different in character, they were absolutely the same in one aspect: they loved their wives dearly.

Even though there was one thing that made Bai Qing feel particularly disheartenedaEUR”it was that Gu Ning was about the same age as him, yet he had a pair of twin sons who had already grown so big, while his own child wasn’t even born yet.

That was the difference.

“When you married Doctor Tang, how old was she?

She looks quite young.”
“Twenty-three,” Gu Ning was taking a pancake out of a bag in the kitchen.

Hearing that she was only twenty-three, Bai Qing couldn’t help but click his tongue.

So young!

At twenty-three, according to today’s society, she should still be in school.

Who would have thought she was already a doctor at twenty-three?

That must require some serious intelligence.

And he didn’t even know which hospital Tang Yuxin worked at, thinking she was just an ordinary doctor.

But such divine Needle Technique, could that be something an ordinary doctor possesses?

She was the genius doctor firmly seated in the number one spot at Beijing Central Hospital, a talent that even now all major hospitals wanted to poach.

It was only because the Central Hospital didn’t release her, and Director Zhu was even less likely to let her go.

If anyone dared to poach his talent, he’d take a kitchen knife and fight to the death.

If Tang Yuxin herself wanted to leave, he’d take a rope to her home and hang himself at her doorstep.

His painstakingly grown cabbage wasn’t meant for others to dig up.

“Let’s go,” Gu Ning lifted the pancake in his hand.

Bai Qing was curious for he carried it, wondering if he was so ravenous that he needed to eat even on the way.

But he didn’t ask, simply following Gu Ning.

The two men were about to fetch water for the two women.

These heavy and rough tasks, of course, were for the men to do, while their women just needed to stay comfortably at home.

Although they had never met, they admired each other, simply because they were both men who loved their wives.

Gu Ning carried two buckets of water in one breath, his arm strength was very considerable, while Bai Qing, who seemed to be weaker, could only carry one bucket and even that seemed to overwhelm him.

“You can try carrying it on your shoulder,” Gu Ning suggested.

Carrying one bucket, he hoisted the other onto his shoulder.

The muscles in his arm clearly tightened beneath his sleeve.

However, as simple as the advice sounded, it was no easy feat for Bai Qing, who was more of a delicate scholar.

His arms were even smoother than a woman’s, so he wasn’t cut out for such tasks.

He struggled, pulling and dragging the bucket all the way back.

As they were about to arrive, Gu Ning stopped.

He set down the bucket he was carrying and carried the other to a nearby house.

There, he put down the water and placed a few wrapped pancakes next to the bucket.

Then, he returned.

Before Bai Qing could ask, the door opened, and a man came out.

Looking at the items on the ground, his expression was inscrutable and perhaps, quite complex.

Bai Qing was smart enough not to ask further questions.

Gu Ning hadn’t taken their food, and there was an excess of water they couldn’t finish drinking, so he figured if Gu Ning wanted to give it away, so be it.

Meanwhile, inside the house, Tang Yuxin had just administered Needle Technique to the just-asleep Liu Juan.

Given the current conditions, someone in Liu Juan’s state really should have been hospitalized to receive proper care, especially since she had narrowly avoided a premature birth not long ago.

That the child was still able to stay inside her was somewhat miraculous.

Tang Yuxin reiterated her point, the timing was not right from any perspective for Liu Juan to give birth.

If the child was born now, even she could not guarantee whether it would live or die.

Yet, if the child stayed in Liu Juan’s womb for a few more days, its chances of survival would increase, and of course, that would be best for the mother as well.

After packing away her needles, Tang Yuxin collected the snack bags from the table and put them away.

Liu Juan didn’t crave anything specific these days, and would just snack when idle, Yuxin wasn’t stingy, she let her snack.

Sometimes, Liu Juan’s snacking wasn’t due to a desire to eat but potentially as a habit, a way to prevent herself from overthinking.

Possibly, this was Liu Juan’s method of relieving stress.

After cleaning up the rubbish, Tang Yuxin turned to leave but saw Bai Qing, who might have been watching for quite some time.

He had, after all, remained silent throughout.

Perhaps he didn’t want to disturb Tang Yuxin during her treatment of Liu Juan, whose complexion had improved day by day, her appetite grew each day, and even her belly seemed to have grown.

This indicated that not only had her complexion improved, but their child was growing as well.

In a place devoid of medicine, Bai Qing knew that Liu Juan’s radiant health must be related to Tang Yuxin’s miraculous acupuncture.

While he did not know the full extent of Tang Yu’s Needle Technique, he could feel that Liu Juan’s complexion had improved.

So it must be effective, it had to be effective.
