Sheng Qing was Xue Yan’s nickname.
Although he was not yet twenty years old, his teacher had given him a name in the first year of school. Those who had a good relationship with him in the Academy basically called him Sheng Qing.
“Doctor Shen.” Xue Yan quickly stood up and cupped his hands in greeting.
Xue Yifu and Li Hehua shot to their feet. As if their butts were on fire, they stammered out a greeting, “Doctor Shen.”
Li Hehua also hurriedly placed Jiang Yue on the ground.
“Uncle,” Jiang Yue greeted.
“This is my brother and sister-in-law, and this is Jiang Yue,” Xue Yan introduced.
Doctor Shen nodded at Xue Yifu and Li Hehua with a smile before turning to the fair and tender Jiang Yue, who was extremely likable. “You’re Jiang Yue, right? You’re quite energetic.”
“Thank you, uncle.” Jiang Yue said.
“You’re also a sweet talker.” Doctor Shen chuckled as he added.
Even though Doctor Shen was not the only one who praised her, Jiang Yue still felt a little embarrassed.
Doctor Shen said a few more words to her before his line of sight fell on Xue Yan again, he smiled and said, “Since when did your family have such a lovely baby girl? Why haven’t I heard you mention her before?”
Xue Yan explained the situation.
“So that’s how it is.” Doctor Shen understood. “Have a seat,” he said with a smile. “Please, stay for lunch.”
“No, no, no…” Xue Yifu and Li Hehua wanted to say that there was no need, but because they were too reserved, they could only say no after a long time.
“Relax, I won’t bite.” Doctor Shen joked.
This time, the atmosphere was much more relaxed.
Xue Yifu and Li Hehua laughed in embarrassment. Slowly, although they were still reserved, they felt much better.
“We’re here to ask you to check on my sister-in-law’s condition only, so we won’t be having lunch here.” Xue Yan smiled.
“What’s wrong with your sister-in-law?” Doctor Shen immediately put on a doctor’s expression and his gaze fell on Li Hehua. Without waiting for anyone to answer, he shook his head and said with a disapproving look, “You’re too skinny.”
She was like a bamboo pole.
Li Hehua was indeed as thin as a bamboo pole.
Jiang Yue nodded in her heart as she understood what Doctor Shen had left unsaid.
Xue Yan didn’t rush to answer but looked at his brother, “Yifu, you can say it.”
“Okay.” Xue Yifu nodded, then stammered, “My wife… is skinny. She’s been married to me for four years, but she still can’t get pregnant. We came to find you, just for this.”
In the end, that was all that could come out.
“Let’s go to the inner room, I’ll take her pulse first.” Doctor Shen nodded.
“Okay!” Xue Yifu immediately agreed.
After entering the inner room, there was a table with pulse pillows and other things on it. This table was Doctor Shen’s consultation table. Doctor Shen sat on one side, and Li Hehua sat on the other side opposite him.
Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Yifu just stood there and watched.
Seeing that Doctor Shen had started to take his wife’s pulse, Xue Yifu’s two large hands involuntarily clenched together. Other than being reserved, he was more nervous than before.
Seeing how nervous Xue Yifu was, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan exchanged glances, but neither of them said anything.
Doctor Shen closed his eyes and carefully checked her pulse for a while before he retracted his hand and opened his eyes. “She’s too skinny.” Immediately after, he looked at Xue Yifu with a reproachful look. “Your wife is so thin, and you still want her to get pregnant and give you a child?”
