Fu Jingyou went to the team to lead the cows and harness the cart, while Lu Miao sat in the main room of the He family and waited.

She couldn't stop shivering just sitting there. Chen Guifen poured hot water for her and took out the quilt she was sleeping on at home.

He Hongjin said: "What are you doing with that thing?"

Chen Guifen said: "It's such a long way to the county. Isn't it cold on the way? Miao girl has her head covered."

He Hongjin lowered his head and smoked a cigarette without speaking.

Fu Jingyou quickly hitched the ox cart, and He Hongjin raised his head and asked him to take the quilt and spread it.

Then he went into the house and asked Chen Guifen to get him money.

Chen Guifen got him two pieces.

He Hongjin held the two-dollar bills and counted them carefully, then extended his hand to Chen Guifen:
"Take another three dollars."

"Do you need that much?"

A doctor's visit at the town health center only costs five cents. The county is a big hospital, so two dollars should be enough.

Chen Guifen muttered, but did not slow down in taking the money.

He Hongjin had a dark face, his eyebrows were furrowed and he said:
"Bring more insurance. If you go now, you won't be back until tomorrow morning. People have to eat."

Chen Guifen nodded, and simply drew a neat big unity card to him:
"Take it, bring it back if you have any left."

He Hongjin nodded.

Outside, Fu Jingyou had already carried Lu Miao into the car and came to call him.

"uncle?"

"coming."

He Hongjin took two bamboo hats, one for each of him and Fu Jingyou, then put on the lantern and went out together.

It was snowing and the Tianshan Road was slippery and difficult to walk on. When we went outside to the road that had been repaired recently, the oxcart moved a little faster.

But even so, it was already four hours after we staggered all the way to the county.

It was completely dark, and ice flakes formed under He Hongjin's nose.

He tied the cow down below, and Fu Jingyou carried Lu Miao into the hospital first.

The county hospital is a small three-story building with dusty walls.

Rural clinics and health clinics cover everything for [-] cents for medical treatment. Brigades that can't cover it all have subsidies, and county registration costs [-] cents.

Fu Jingyou hugged Lu Miao. The situation looked serious, so the nurse led him directly to the ward on the second floor.

After Lu Miao was put down and the doctors came over to check on the situation, the nurse pushed Fu Jingyou and asked him to pay the registration fee.

It was the first time He Hongjin came to the county hospital, and he was a little confused when he entered the lobby.

Seeing Fu Jingyou coming down from upstairs, he hurried up to greet him.

"How's it going? What did the doctor say?"

"I'm still looking at it, and I was asked to pay the registration fee."

He Hongjin followed Fu Jingyou in confusion:
"What, what is the registration fee?"

"It should just be the medical fee..."

They chatted and signed up, and when they went upstairs again, the door to the ward was already closed.

There was a nurse guarding the door, preventing them from entering:
"The director said this is a gynecological problem and you can't go in."

"What's the matter with paternal and maternal care? Comrade doctor, how is my child's condition now?"

He Hongjin didn't understand, but he was also a little worried.

After walking for several hours, Lu Miao cried for most of the way, which showed that the pain was severe.

Seeing that he was a farmer, the nurse probably didn’t understand even if he explained it, so she didn’t bother to explain:

"The director didn't say anything! Just wait!" Fu Jingyou helped He Hongjin sit down aside. He didn't say anything, but he lowered his brows and folded his two big hands together, sometimes rubbing and sometimes clenching.

He Hongjin thought for a long time and couldn't figure it out. He looked at Fu Jingyou and asked:

"What is paternal disease? I have never heard of this disease before... How can this lesbian have such a mysterious disease?"

Fu Jingyou shook his head, wandering around the door like a headless fly.

The nurse in white glanced sideways at He Hongjin, shook her head helplessly, and said to herself:
"Women are not affected by gynecological diseases, so who else can suffer from it? Do men suffer from it? They talk strangely..."

In the ward, the chief doctor used a stethoscope to listen to the condition of Lu Miao's chest and abdomen:

"How does it hurt?"

"It's just twitching, as if something is falling down."

After listening to Lu Miao's explanation, the doctor put away the stethoscope and tried to ring her microphone.

After pondering for two or three minutes without finding out what was going on, the doctor asked again:
"When did you have your period recently?"

Lu Miao answered the situation truthfully, and the doctor asked the usual questions about accuracy.

After Lu Miao answered one by one, the attending doctor tried to take off her pants.

She stood up and struggled a little uncomfortably, "What are you doing... can you do it without taking off your pants? I'll do it... I'm still wearing a menstrual belt."

The attending doctor said truthfully: "Your situation is most likely that you are pregnant and will have a miscarriage. Your monthly pulse is too small to feel. Now it depends on the color of your menstrual blood."

The words "pregnancy and miscarriage" stunned Lu Miao.

She was stunned. The doctor had already taken off her pants.

The blood is faintly reddish. How is this the color of menstrual blood?
The doctor asked Lu Miao to put on her pants and basically confirmed the results.

"Have you had sex recently?"

"I fell a little in the afternoon...I didn't fall badly, I just stumbled and sat on the ground."

Lu Miao shook her head, trembling a little, tears welling up in her eyes, and the tears couldn't stop rushing out.

Is she pregnant?
She felt like she hadn't grown up yet, so how could she be pregnant?
But the facts are before our eyes...

She didn't realize that there was an extra little life in her body, and even now she just realized it, and the doctor announced that she had a miscarriage?
Because of the wrestling in the afternoon?

"The first three months of pregnancy are the most unstable time. You are only about five to six weeks away...don't cry yet..."

Seeing her crying hard, the doctor said:

"I see that the blood on your menstrual belt has dried, and it's only the size of a fingernail. If you want to keep it, you can still keep it."

Lu Miao nodded with tears in her eyes.

The doctor advised her to calm down and then left the room.

There are not many people who come to the county hospital for treatment in normal times, and even fewer people come to the county hospital on such snowy days and late at night.

As soon as he left the ward, the doctor saw Fu Jingyou and He Hongjin and said:
"Are you the patient's family? The patient is bleeding during pregnancy and has signs of miscarriage. The situation is not optimistic..."

"what?"

Fu Jingyou and He Hongjin suddenly became alert.

He Hongjin's eyes were as wide as bells, "Pregnant, pregnant... miscarriage, miscarriage?"

I fell down when I went back in the afternoon, and then I lay on the bed complaining of stomachache.

He didn't understand it at first, but after hearing the doctor's words, He Hongjin understood everything.

Isn't this a sign of pregnancy and miscarriage?
He Hongjin scratched his head hard, feeling angry and anxious all of a sudden, not knowing what to say.

Fu Jingyou had already approached the doctor nervously:
"How about my lord? On the way here, she screamed in pain..."

The doctor nodded, "The fetus is unstable at the end of the first month. This is the sign of miscarriage. The stomach is cramping and aching..."

"The patient's intention is to save the child. I came here to ask your family what they want."
