The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion
Chapter 409: This gift is too expensive.
Chapter 409
To make her words more persuasive, He Zhiran continued, "When my husband and I were out, we happened to encounter a pregnant woman expecting twins who was in a critical condition.
I used the techniques I learned to save both her and the babies' lives."
Madam He didn't refute when it came to the medical books that He Zhiran had been reading.
Their daughter had always had such limited interests.
Whether it was playing musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, or painting, she merely dabbled in them without putting much effort.
She had no interest at all in learning needlework or embroidery.
But when it came to medicine, she was truly obsessed. Sometimes, when she found a medical book she liked, she would even forget to eat and sleep.
However, Madam He had never known what level of skill their daughter had reached with all those medical books.
After all, they didn't object to He Zhiran reading them and thought it would help pass the time. They had never considered that she would achieve any significant accomplishments in medicine.
But just now, she heard her daughter say that she had actually saved a pregnant woman expecting twins.
This completely exceeded Madam He's understanding.
To put her mother-in-law's mind at ease, Mo Jiuye, who had been silent for a long time, walked over.
"Mother, what Zhiran said is true. She did help the pregnant woman expecting twins deliver safely."
Mo Jiuye had the confidence to speak up. Ever since he learned that his wife was pregnant with twins, he had been studying cesarean section operations in detail whenever he had free time.
Although he hadn't performed one yet, he had already memorized the theory thoroughly.
Not only that, He Zhiran had also helped him purchase instructional videos on Taobao. After watching them and combining the knowledge he had gained, he was confident that he could ensure a successful procedure.
Madam He felt annoyed when she saw Mo Jiuye. It was this troublemaker who caused their daughter to become pregnant with twins.
However, her self-cultivation wouldn't allow her to show her dissatisfaction too clearly.
"Since you both say so, I will go and see the pregnant woman that Zhiran saved."
She knew that her daughter liked reading medical books, but she had never seen her daughter personally treat any patients. So, Madam He was still skeptical even after hearing their words.
Pregnancy with twins was no small matter, and she needed to see it with her own eyes to believe it.
At this moment, Zhang San was already on horseback.
"Madam, I will hurry to the capital city," he said.
He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye didn't stop him.
Especially He Zhiran, she knew Madam He's temper very well from the memories of the original owner of her body.
If they were to prevent Zhang San from going to the capital city to invite the renowned gynecologist, Madam He would be even more restless day and night. It was better to let her hold on to some hope than to see her worried every day.
Madam He felt somewhat relieved as she watched Zhang San ride away. She believed that as long as they could bring the gynecologist, their daughter would have a smooth delivery.
He Zhiran didn't know who the renowned gynecologist that Madam He mentioned was, but she didn't underestimate the medical skills of people from ancient times.
Everyone has their specialized field, and someone who can be called a gynecology expert must have extraordinary medical skills.
If they could really invite that person, it would undoubtedly be a good thing.
Mo Jiuye had initially wanted to come up with an excuse to appease his mother-in-law. However, seeing that she had shifted her attention due to Zhang San's departure, he decided not to explain himself for now and wait until his mother-in-law brought it up.
Just then, Old Lady Mo hurriedly arrived, accompanied by Mo Hanyue.
Old Lady Mo genuinely respected Madam He, knowing that she had raised such a good daughter who married into the Mo family.
Even before she entered the courtyard, her voice could be heard.
"Has my mother-in-law arrived?"
When she was in the capital, Madam He had interacted with Old Lady Mo on several occasions, so she was familiar with her voice.
She quickly walked towards the direction of the entrance.
"Mother-in-law, I miss my daughter so much that I rushed here to accompany her during childbirth. I might trouble you for a while in the future, so please don't be bothered by it."
As they spoke, the two of them had already met.
Mo Hanyue also respectfully greeted Madam He.
After all, both of them were aristocrats from the capital, so they were well-versed in etiquette.
Madam He quickly signaled the nanny who had come with her, and soon enough, the nanny took out a purse from the carriage and handed it to Mo Hanyue.
Mo Hanyue was the youngest child of the Mo family and was still unmarried. This was also her first meeting with Madam He, so it was natural that there would be a gift exchange.
As Mo Hanyue was about to decline, Madam He smiled and said, "Since it's our first meeting, let's consider it as a gift from Aunt He."
The moment Mo Hanyue received the purse, she pinched it with her hand. It didn't contain silver or banknotes but small grains.
She was very familiar with this thing—they were gold melon seeds.
Now that she was involved in daily labor, she understood the difficulty of earning money and knew the considerable value of these gold melon seeds.
Such a precious gift, she couldn't accept it.
"Thank you, Aunt He, for your kindness, but this gift is too valuable. Hanyue feels unworthy of it."
Seeing Mo Hanyue's generous demeanor, Madam He felt even more distressed.
Such a good girl, just like her Zhiran, but she had innocently come to this barren place to suffer.
If the prosperity of the Mo family still existed, with the exceptional qualities of the Mo daughters, there would be countless suitors knocking on their door.
Madam He didn't know that Mo Hanyue had already arranged a good marriage, so she sincerely pitied her.
She held Mo Hanyue's hand, which was holding the red envelope, and gently patted it.
"Good girl, Auntie wants you to keep it. We're all relatives, no need to be so polite."
Old Lady Mo could tell that the red envelope from Aunt He had to be given away.
"Hanyue, this is Aunt He's heartfelt gift. You should accept it."
Seeing her mother speak, Mo Hanyue graciously bowed to Madam He.
"Then, thank you, Auntie."
"That's right," Madam He said softly.
As the host, Old Lady Mo gestured once again, inviting Madam He to come inside and sit down.
At this moment, Madam He wasn't as upset as when she had seen He Zhiran. Especially since she had already sent Zhang San to the capital to invite a renowned gynecologist, her mood had improved slightly.
She walked side by side with Old Lady Mo into the courtyard, while also taking in her surroundings.
This glance didn't go unnoticed and actually surprised her.
The courtyard appeared square and neat, with smooth square bricks covering the ground. In the northwest corner of the courtyard, there was a grape trellis with neatly arranged stone tables and chairs underneath.
The structure of the house was quite unique but looked very comfortable.
Most importantly, the windows of their house seemed to be made of glass...
Although glass was a rarity in this era, as the wife of the imperial Grand Minister, she still had some knowledge.
Back when Emperor Shunwu celebrated the Empress Dowager's 60th birthday, she had accompanied those noble ladies to the Longevity Palace where the Empress Dowager resided.
There was a special little house in the Longevity Palace, which was said to be the place where the Empress Dowager watched the snow during winter.
