Chapter 361: Chapter 359 Production 4_1

Tao Tao bit her lip and eventually stopped eating, leaving behind half a piece of chocolate.

Xia Ningxing saw this scene unfolding before her eyes and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh. There was nothing left unclear to her.

She immediately looked straight at Yu Heng, not sparing any courtesy, "What’s this, your wife needs to give birth while eating chocolate, and she still has to save half for you?"

Yu Heng had planned to play dumb, but now that it had been brought up, he could no longer feign ignorance. His face flushed with a thick neck, he insisted, "Taozi, you silly girl, what does it have to do with me? Just eat it quickly, eat up so you have the strength to give birth."

"Hmm..." Tao Tao nodded and started eating again.

After witnessing the exchange between the mother and son, Ningxing couldn’t help but lower her head and quietly asked so only the two of them could hear, "I really don’t understand, what exactly do you see in Yu Heng?"

He’s such a mommy’s boy!

Tao Tao bit her lip, defending her husband, "Heng is actually very good. Apart from being too obedient to his mother, he doesn’t have any other shortcomings."

Tao Tao wasn’t wrong—Yu Heng was indeed a decent man who could endure hardships and was usually quite protective of his own. If anyone dared to bully Tao Tao, he would be ready to fight to the death.

But this did not include his own mother.

On the contrary, in front of his mother, he became a completely different person. No matter how Tao Tao was bullied by his mother, he would never utter a word of protest. Instead, he would even persuade her to be more generous, to be more tolerant, talking about how his mother had it tough too.

"..."

Miss, with this mommy’s boy flaw alone, no matter how outstanding he is in other aspects, he’s not someone we should want!

But after all, it’s someone else’s business. Ningxing couldn’t just outright tell them to get a divorce.

She could only shake her head and remain silent.

After finishing the chocolate, Tao Tao clearly felt more strength in her body, though her stomach still hurt a lot.

"Tao Tao from bed number thirty-five, how are you feeling now?" The nurse came in, frowning as she checked the dilation of her cervix: "It’s been so long, and you are only at four centimeters? No, this is too slow; we need to do an emergency cesarean section!"

The nurse suggested.

At this, Mrs. Yu immediately exploded, angrily lashing out at the nurse, "My daughter-in-law is just dilating slowly, why does she need a cesarean section? What’s the matter, are you bullying us because we come from the countryside, thinking we don’t understand anything, just so you can drag us in for surgery and swindle our money?"

A natural birth would only cost three or four hundred yuan.

But a cesarean would cost a thousand.

Mrs. Yu certainly wasn’t willing to spend that money.

The nurse, shouted at with reddened eyes, bit her lip and explained with a sobbing tone, "Old lady, I am suggesting a cesarean for your daughter-in-law’s and the baby’s sake. Your daughter-in-law has been at four centimeters for so long. If we delay any further, the baby might suffocate inside her."

"Suffocate my foot!" Mrs. Yu cursed and was about to push the nurse away, "Get lost at once, you’re just a nurse, how dare you babble nonsense here."

Mrs. Yu might not care, but Tao Tao was scared that what the nurse said could come true. She didn’t know whether to opt for natural birth or a cesarean and thus looked helplessly toward Xia Ningxing, "Xiaxia... What should I do?"

"You must have a cesarean!" Ningxing released her wrist, stating without a doubt.

She had just taken her pulse and discovered that the baby’s condition wasn’t good, if they delayed any longer, it would surely result in a stillbirth.

The doctor had arrived, and after examination, he recommended switching to a cesarean section.

"But cesarean sections are so expensive..." Facing the doctor, Mrs. Yu’s attitude was no longer arrogant, but she was still irritable.

"What’s more important, the child or money?" Xia Ningxing asked coldly, at that moment wanting nothing more than to pound Mrs. Yu to death.

Tao Tao looked at Yu Heng with tearful, pleading eyes, her tears streaming down her face: "Heng, say something, will you?"

When it came to his wife and child’s life, Yu Heng hesitated briefly, but then decided to timidly talk back to his mother. "Mom, why don’t we just let Taozi have the C-section? After all, Taozi is carrying a boy, and haven’t you always been longing for a grandson?"

After some internal conflict, for the sake of the grandson, Mrs. Yu painfully agreed: "Fine, then."

Though she agreed, deep down Mrs. Yu had already cursed Tao Tao with all kinds of unpleasant words.

Tao Tao was successfully taken to the operating room.

Xia Ningxing and Yu Heng, the mother and son of the Yu Family, both waited outside, sitting on the blue chairs of the hospital.

"Bless us, bless us, my grandson must be born safely..." Throughout Tao Tao’s labor, Mrs. Yu kept muttering, her mind fixated only on her precious grandson.

As for Tao Tao’s safety, she didn’t care at all, as if Tao Tao was just an inconsequential beast of burden.

Xia Ningxing, disgusted, moved farther away to avoid losing control and beating the old hag.

However, Xia Ningxing felt some doubts. Hadn’t the tests shown that it was a girl? Why then was Mrs. Yu still babbling on about a grandson?

If Mrs. Yu were senile and had forgotten about it, it could be excused, but Yu Heng had also just referred to the baby as a grandson. Surely he couldn’t be suffering from dementia at his young age?

Unexpectedly, Xia Ningxing had a feeling that something was very wrong.

She quickly asked Yu Heng beside her, "Yu Heng, isn’t your wife pregnant with a girl? Why do both you and your mother say it’s a boy?"

Yu Heng was about to speak when Mrs. Yu, who had been mumbling incessantly, overheard and came over with a mysterious look on her face, saying to Xia Ningxing, "My dear girl, you just don’t understand. So what if it’s a girl? I found a doctor to prescribe a medicine that could turn a girl into a boy!"

At that mention, Xia Ningxing suddenly remembered the phone call from Tao Tao. Her heart sank.

"Did Tao Tao take that medicine?"

"She only took it once before making a fuss about not wanting to eat it, saying something about her friend telling her it had side effects and was poisonous, which really infuriated me. But it’s okay. I slipped the medicine into her soup this morning. The doctor assured me that as long as the child wasn’t born, the gender could still change!" Mrs. Yu proudly raised her eyebrows, showing off her accomplishment.

Xia Ningxing only had one thing on her mind to say: "f*ck."

Mrs. Yu glanced at Xia Ningxing and eyed her stomach. "Young lady, do you also want to have a baby boy? How about I ask the doctor to prescribe you the same medicine?"

Thinking that Xia Ningxing was her son’s subordinate, Mrs. Yu figured that if she could help her, she would owe her a favor, and she would have leverage to get her man to promote and increase her son’s salary.

While Mrs. Yu was happily scheming, Xia Ningxing could not restrain herself. She grabbed Mrs. Yu’s collar, her face terribly dark and expression chillingly cold, "Are you insane? You actually let Tao Tao take random drugs, do you want to kill her?"

No wonder when she had taken her pulse before, she felt that something was off. But because she wasn’t an expert in diagnosing pulses, she hadn’t taken it seriously. Now it became clear that it was poisoning!

"What do you mean I want to harm her? I want her to have a son, the more sons the more glory. I am helping her!" Mrs. Yu shouted self-righteously.
