Chapter 143 News from the Midwife
After seeing Wei Mingxiang off, Cheng Jinnian accompanied Jiang Wan for breakfast and then hurried out.
"I got news about the midwife!"
"What? The midwife who delivered you? Or the midwife who delivered my other two children?"
"We are the midwife of my child!"
It turned out that after Jiang Wan confessed to Cheng Jinnian that day, he became very concerned about this matter.
After finishing his housework every day, Cheng Jinnian would go out to get information.
He kept an eye on Liujia Village every day, and sure enough, he found some clues.
Liu Shurong and his family have moved out of the village, but that doesn't mean they have completely cut off contact with the people in the village.
As long as they are in contact, Cheng Jinnian doesn't believe that he can't find out the information.
Sure enough, with his efforts, Cheng Jinnian took the initiative to contact several people in the village and finally found out Liu Shurong's new address.
Cheng Jinnian was in such a hurry when he left just now that he only finished half of his words.
However, if we can find Liu Shurong's family, we will be close to finding the midwife of that year.
If she hadn’t finished her confinement period yet, Jiang Wan would have wanted to go and take a look.
Jiang Wan had been thinking that she would investigate it herself after she finished her confinement.
I didn't expect that Cheng Jinnian would get there first.
Now that he saw how concerned he was about the child, Jiang Wan felt relieved.
Cheng Jinnian trotted all the way to the town, then asked for directions according to the address, and soon he found Liu Shurong's current residence.
Cheng Jinnian was lucky. The door of Liu Shurong's house was open, and it was obvious that someone was home.
He walked forward excitedly, then knocked on the door gently.
"Who is it? An old voice came out."
"Grandma, I'm looking for Brother Liu Shurong."
Cheng Jinnian actually didn’t know Liu Shurong, but he wanted to make sure that he was not in the wrong place.
"Oh, are you looking for our Shurong? He's out now and won't be back for a while."
The sound got closer and closer until a white-haired head popped out of the door.
An old man in his seventies or eighties walked over slowly with a cane.
"Oh, I'll wait at the door then."
Cheng Jinnian took a step back and spoke politely.
She stood at the door and squinted at Cheng Jinnian for a while, then waved at him.
"I don't know how long we have to wait, why don't you come in and sit for a while?"
The old lady took the initiative to suggest, and Cheng Jinnian originally wanted to say no.
But then he thought, if the old lady knew the information about the midwife, he wouldn't have to wait outside.
Although the old man is old, his mind seems very clear.
Such elderly people often have a lot of information. As long as he chats with the old lady for a few minutes, he might get some unexpected information.
"Thank you grandma then."
Cheng Jinnian smiled slightly and followed the old lady inside.
The old lady poured him a glass of boiled water and sat on a chair beside her, closing her eyes to rest.
Cheng Jinnian took a sip of water, then folded his hands on his knees and waited quietly.
Ten minutes later, the old lady opened her eyes.
"What's your name, young man? Which village are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?"
"Grandma, my name is Cheng Jinnian, I'm from Chengjia Village, I went out to serve in the army when I was 18, and I've rarely been back in recent years, so it's normal that you don't recognize me."
It was no secret what Cheng Jinnian was here to investigate, so there was no need for him to hide his identity.
"You are a soldier? No wonder you look so imposing."
Cheng Jinnian didn't expect that after he revealed his identity, the old lady, who had always had a serious face, suddenly had a smile on her face.
"My old man was also a soldier, but he died early."
The old lady sighed and started talking.
The old lady talked a lot about the old man. Cheng Jinnian listened quietly, occasionally interjecting a few words.
Cheng Jinnian showed appropriate respect for the old man.
The old lady's impression of him really improved a lot.
After the two finished talking about this topic, Cheng Jinnian suddenly got to the point.
"Grandma, is there anyone among your relatives who is a midwife?"
Cheng Jinnian's question was quite sudden and the old lady didn't react for a long time.
Under Cheng Jinnian's expectant gaze, the old lady nodded firmly.
"Have."
Cheng Jinnian's eyes lit up and he quickly asked.
"Grandma, do you know her address? Can you tell me?"
"Most people in the village give birth in hospitals nowadays. Why do you have to find a midwife?"
"Besides, she lives very far away and rarely comes here. It's not easy for you to find her."
"If there's a woman in your family who needs to give birth, just send her directly to the hospital. There's no need to make this trip."
The old lady thought that Cheng Jinnian was going to find someone to deliver the baby, but she didn't expect that he looked quite smart, so why would he be so confused at this time?
"Grandma, my wife has already given birth. I asked about the midwife not because I want her to deliver the baby, but because it was this midwife who delivered my wife when I first got married."
"I want to find her now and thank her, so please tell me her address."
Cheng Jinnian believed that as long as he said this, the old lady would definitely tell him the midwife's address.
But unexpectedly, the old lady waved her hand.
"No need. There's no need to make this special trip. This is her job, and it's what she should do. Since she's been paid to do things for you, isn't it only natural?"
The old lady's words were righteous, and no matter how Cheng Jinnian tried to persuade her, she just refused to give in.
Don’t be fooled by the old lady’s age. In fact, she has positive values and clear thinking.
Ordinary methods were simply not enough to make her give in.
Cheng Jinnian had thought that the old lady was easy to fool and that it was easy to get words out of her, but now he realized that he was the clown.
Cheng Jinnian had been out for more than two hours, and he was worried about his wife and children at home.
There was no point in dragging it on like this, so Cheng Jinnian decided to speak frankly.
"Grandma, I'll tell you the truth. My wife suddenly fainted on the ridge of the field. The situation was very urgent at the time, so someone invited a midwife from Liujia Village."
"Those two children are twins. They were said to be in very bad condition when they were born. I want to find the midwife now. I want to ask for specific details about the two children."
"According to what you said, it's been many years since the incident. Don't you think it's a little too late to ask now since you didn't ask at the beginning?"
The old lady frowned and asked in confusion, and Cheng Jinnian smiled bitterly.
"I was in the army at the time, and no one at home told me that my wife was pregnant. I was not even by her side when she gave birth."
"Most importantly, after the two children were born, they were sent to the hospital because their condition was not good, and they were never brought back!"
"I just learned about this news recently. Some people said they were dead, but I didn't believe it, so I wanted to investigate what happened back then."
