Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing Liu Hua’s face turn pale, Xia Wan hurriedly said, “Don’t worry about me for now. What’s wrong with you? Does your stomach hurt? My house is nearby.
Come with me, I’ll treat you first.”
Liu Hua shook his head. “No need. It’s just an old problem. I’ll be fine after squatting for a while.”
At this point, she looked a little embarra.s.sed.
Xia Wan realized that Liu Hua might be menstruating.
It was very common to have menstrual cramps, so many women took it with a pinch of salt. However, some people had severe colds. If they didn’t pay attention, it might cause adverse effects later on. It might even affect their future children.
“Come home with me first. You have to observe your body. You don’t want a small illness to become something serious, right?”
Xia Wan’s tone became more serious. Liu Hua originally wanted to continue rejecting her, but for some reason, when she saw Xia Wan’s serious face, she swallowed her words.
Liu Hua was not feeling well, while Xia Wan and Xia Feng were carrying many things in their hands, so the three of them walked very slowly. Fortunately, the supermarket was only two streets away from the place where Xia Wan had locked the door. The three of them walked for about fifteen minutes and arrived home.
At this moment, there was no one at home. His parents and brother were selling clothes. Xia Feng put down the things first, then opened the door and let Xia Wan and Liu Hua in first.
Liu Hua looked a little nervous when she came in. She had originally lived in the village like Xia Wan, with the floor of her house filled with mud. Her feet were stepping on ceramic tiles now. She was afraid that her shoes would be too dirty and leave dirt on the tiles.
Under Xia Wan’s request, Liu Hua sat on the sofa. The sofa was soft, and it made Liu Hua feel that it was all so unreal.
Thus, she seemed very uneasy and didn’t dare to sit too comfortably.
Xia Wan saw her nervousness and poured her a cup of warm water.
Xia Feng knew that the two of them had something private to talk about, so he went straight back to his room.
Xia Wan also remembered that in her previous life, Liu Hua did not get into university after graduating high school. Then, she married a man from the neighboring village under the matchmaker’s recommendation.
The man’s family background was not bad; he was also good-looking.
However, after three years of marriage, Liu Hua did not give birth to a child for their family. After that, there were rumors that she could not have children. Their family began to look down on her. They heard that she would return to her mother’s house several times a year and would often come back injured.
It seemed that Liu Hua’s body really had some problems in this area, which was why it was difficult for her to get pregnant later.
“Let me take your pulse and see if there’s anything wrong with your body,” Xia Wan said.
Liu Hua looked a little uneasy. “I don’t think that’s necessary. I just have menstrual cramps. It always happens on the first day of my period. It hurts for two to three hours every time. I just have to bear with it. I just forgot that my period is coming this month, so I came to town. I’ll be fine after I go home and lie down for a few hours.”
Xia Wan knew that she was afraid of troubling her, so she deliberately put on a stern face and said, “You don’t believe in my medical skills, right? That’s why you’re brushing me off.”
Liu Hua waved her hands repeatedly. Of course, it was not a lie. How could I not believe in your medical skills? Your grandfather is the village doctor in our village. If our family is sick, we always look for your grandfather. How could I not believe in you?”
“Then let me show you.” Under Xia Wan’s persuasion, Liu Hua could not reject her and asked Xia Wan to take her pulse.
A minute later, Xia Wan finished taking her pulse.
Liu Hua saw that Xia Wan did not speak and could not help but become nervous.”Xia Wan, did something really happen to me?”
Seeing her being so nervous, Xia Wan smiled. “It’s nothing serious. It’s just a little cold. However, if you don’t pay attention, it will still cause problems. Remember not to touch cold water during your period in the future, and don’t work too hard. It’s best to drink hot water when you drink water.”
“I’ll give you some medicine. Drink it for a week. It’s almost done. In the future, when your period comes again, it won’t hurt anymore.”
Menstrual cramps weren’t a peculiarity, but it was also related to one’s physique. The worse the physique, the more severe the menstrual cramps. Liu Hua was a typical case of Palace Cold. There was no problem now, but if she was not careful, it might become a disease in the future.
