Rebirth Era: After the Beautiful Sister-in-law Refuses to Open Business

"Did she say that astragalus was added to the chicken stew?"

"Aunt Cui Ju didn't say. Doctor, what is astragalus? My mother is pregnant with my little sister, can't she eat coix seed porridge and the astragalus stewed chicken?"

The little boy had an innocent look on his face. Touching his head, Song Lan told him about the harms of coix seed porridge and astragalus chicken stew to women in late pregnancy. Seeing his stunned expression, she thought for a moment, and her clear voice once again flowed from her lips:

"As a doctor, my duty is to cure illnesses and save lives. I don't need to meddle in other people's business. However, your wife's critical condition today was caused by the barley porridge and astragalus stewed chicken she consumed. If she knew that these two foods would bring danger to pregnant women, then I have reason to doubt her motives.

Of course, how you choose to do it depends on your own intention. However, my suggestion is that it is best to call the police to handle it, so as to prevent the other party from having ulterior motives and using other methods to harm your lover.

Well, that's all I have to say. Go in and see your lover!"

After leaving a message, Song Lan gave a few words to nurse Fang Fei, then carried her medicine box back to the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Unexpectedly, a big gossip spread in the hospital the next day, and the parties involved in the gossip were the woman who almost lost two lives yesterday and her husband, as well as their junior high school classmate, and the widow who returned to her parents' home with her seven-year-old daughter after her husband died.

"Are you sure what you heard is true?"

Today is the second day of work after the Chinese New Year. Song Lan had just finished seeing a patient at noon when she got off work. She saw nurse Wang Ping walk into the clinic with a gossipy look on her face. Then, she heard her talk about something that shocked her particularly.

The specific situation is that the pregnant woman named Wang Jinling, who was rescued from the brink of death by her yesterday, was actually deliberately plotted against by Cui Ju, her and her husband's junior high school classmate and her good friend, causing her to have premature delivery and difficult labor, and almost resulting in the death of two people.

Cui Ju and Wang Jinling had a very good relationship. Although they did not live in the same village, the two villages were separated by only a production road and they shared a primary school. Therefore, the two became good friends since they were in primary school.

In addition, through Cui Ju, Wang Jinling became acquainted with her current husband Zhang Junping. The three of them were of similar age and had been classmates from elementary school to junior high school.

However, Zhang Junping likes Cui Ju, and Cui Ju also likes Zhang Junping. They are from the same village, and there is only one house between them.

Originally, after graduating from middle school, the two planned to tell their families that they liked each other so that they could arrange a marriage.

Unexpectedly, not long after Cui Ju finished junior high school, the Cui family asked someone to introduce a boy who lived in the town to Cui Ju.

Not only does the other party's father have a job, but his brother and sister, including the boy himself, are also formally employed workers.

Cui Ju agreed to meet the man with her family without much thought, hoping to marry a man who could eat commercial grain and live in the city in the future. The marriage was soon finalized.

But when she broke up with Zhang Junping, she said that her family did not agree with them being together, and that her family had already arranged a marriage for her and planned to marry her off after the Chinese New Year.

Zhang Junping is not someone who can't let go of something.

The girl he liked was forced by her family to marry someone else. Even though he felt sad, he still gave her his blessing in the end.

Time flies and Cui Ju gets married. On the same day, Zhang Junping and Wang Jinling get engaged through a matchmaker.

The two were classmates in elementary and junior high school, and they knew each other quite well. They lived a pretty good life after marriage.

Unexpectedly, Cui Ju became a widow in the seventh year after her marriage.

It is said that the man had an accident while at work and died before he could be taken to the hospital.

In fact, it disappeared last summer.

The parents-in-law received the pension from the factory. They said on the surface that they didn't want to delay Cui Ju, but in fact they were kicking Cui Ju out.

Worried about her only daughter, Cui Ju took the child back to her parents' home.

Thinking about how Wang Jinling and Zhang Junping lived a stable and happy life, and thinking about how Zhang Junping went to work in the county transport team just two months after marrying Wang Jinling, even though the two of them were not separated and lived on their own, Zhang Junping loved his wife very much and always brought good things for his wife and children when he came back from working.

Cui Ju heard all this from the Cui family.

So, I couldn't help but have some evil thoughts.

——Instead of being forced to remarry a random widower by her family, it’s better to be with Zhang Junping again.

In Cui Ju's opinion, she and Zhang Junping had an emotional foundation, and Wang Jinling was just the third party. But unfortunately, after creating several chance encounters and even using fruit candies to coax the village children to call Zhang Junping to a deserted place, and then being heartbroken and saying that she had never forgotten him, Zhang Junping's response was always that he had a family and it was impossible for them to go back to the past.

Later, whenever Zhang Junping heard that Cui Ju was looking for him, or saw Cui Ju waiting for him on the roadside from afar, he would simply ignore her, avoid her and live his life in peace.

Cui Ju was unwilling to give up, so she set her sights on Wang Jinling. On the one hand, she tried to get closer to Wang Jinling and took care of her in every possible way, while on the other hand, she was looking for an opportunity to get rid of this bitch who had robbed her of her happiness.

Yes, in Cui Ju's opinion, it was not her and Zhang Junping who broke up, but Wang Jinling who snatched Zhang Junping away.

She thought Wang Jinling was a despicable bitch who stabbed her best friend in the back.

Knowing that Wang Jinling was pregnant, Cui Ju thought this was an opportunity.

She once overheard someone say that barley porridge can cause premature birth or miscarriage in pregnant women, and that stewing chicken with astragalus can reduce amniotic fluid in the late pregnancy, causing prolonged labor, that is, dystocia.

To ensure two lives for one corpse.

Cui Ju chose to take action yesterday, the third day of the Chinese New Year, nearly a month before Wang Jinling gave birth.

Nurse Wang Ping knew such details because she heard the information from a nurse named Li in the obstetrics and gynecology department.

In fact, Nurse Li was one of the nurses on duty in the obstetrics and gynecology department yesterday.

Coincidentally, she and Zhang Junping are from the same village.

When I got home from get off work yesterday afternoon, I heard from my family that the Zhang family had gone to the Cui family to settle accounts.

At first, Cui Ju denied it, but when Zhang Junping told her the conversation between his son and the nurse, the diagnosis given by Song Lan, and proposed to call the police, Cui Ju turned pale and collapsed to the ground.

"Absolutely true."

Wang Ping said, "I heard about it from Li Xiao and Fang Ping, so I leaned over to listen carefully. I thought that it was thanks to your help yesterday that the woman and her unborn baby were saved, so I came back to our Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine to share what I heard with you."

Li Xiao is the nurse Li who was on duty with Fang Ping in the obstetrics and gynecology department yesterday.

"What happened next? Was the person taken away by the police?"

Song Lan asked Wang Ping.

"Cui Ju begged Zhang Junping not to call the police, saying that she just wanted to be with Zhang Junping so much that she lost her mind and did that to Wang Jinling."

Wang Ping said this, and sighed with a somewhat unhappy expression. Seeing this, Song Lan asked again: "Is this the end of the matter?"
