Chapter 497 Having a child is never a one-person affair.
Sister Chen looked at Zhao Tian, then at Gu's mother.
I was a little embarrassed to speak up.
Su Niannian could tell that Sister Chen seemed to have something else to say to her.
"If Sister Chen has anything to say to me, why don't you come to my room?" Su Niannian asked with a smile.
Sister Chen thought about it for a moment, and realized that taking pulses and treating illnesses wasn't anything shameful...
This is the Gu family home. It doesn't seem right for you to make things so special and then go to their room to chat privately.
He then mustered up his courage and spoke to Su Niannian.
Ms. Chen explained her situation: she had been married for some time and had been trying to have a child, but without success.
I had heard before that Su Niannian had helped many elderly people with their medical problems in the military compound.
Everyone says Su Niannian has exceptional medical skills, so I want her to take a look at me.
Upon hearing this, Su Niannian smiled and said it was a small matter.
They said they wanted to take Sister Chen's pulse.
While Sister Chen was speaking, Zhao Tian had already taken the child back to her room, not intending to disturb them.
Mrs. Gu smiled and said a few polite words before going to the kitchen to tidy up her things.
Sister Chen extended her hand. Su Niannian placed her fingers on Sister Chen's wrist.
After a careful pulse diagnosis, it was determined that Ms. Chen was in good health.
They are all quite strong, and there are absolutely no problems.
There were no problems with gynecological health.
Su Niannian smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sister Chen, there's nothing wrong with your health."
“Everything is great, very suitable for conception,” Su Niannian said truthfully.
Sister Chen had originally planned that if Su Niannian found out she had any problems, she would treat her no matter how much it cost.
At her age, she really wants to have a child of her own.
She loves children, and her husband is younger than her. She doesn't want her husband to be ridiculed for not having a child because of her.
But Su Niannian is now saying that she has no problem.
"But... my husband and I have never been able to have a child..." Sister Chen wasn't doubting Su Niannian; she was stating an objective fact.
After thinking for a moment, Su Niannian said to Sister Chen in a more tactful way that pregnancy is not a matter for one person, but for both husband and wife.
Have you ever considered that your husband might have health problems?
Ms. Chen felt that her husband was younger than her and was a soldier, so his physical condition was better.
Their sex life is also very good.
It shouldn't be her husband's problem, right?
Sister Chen then shared her thoughts with Su Niannian.
“Being in good health doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the right time for my wife to get pregnant. In any case, let’s wait for my brother-in-law to come and take a look at me when he gets back!” Su Niannian said with a smile.
“But he’s a man, I’m afraid he might not want to get checked,” Sister Chen said hesitantly.
Su Niannian could understand that in this day and age, if someone said that a man couldn't get his wife pregnant or that a man was infertile, he would probably be ridiculed by outsiders.
In this day and age, if a woman can't have children, it's always the woman's problem; no one will admit that there's anything wrong with the man in their family.
Su Niannian could indeed understand.
"Then you'll just have to go back and discuss it..." Su Niannian had no other choice.
That's just how it is in this era; family scandals shouldn't be aired in public.
Now that Sister Chen is perfectly healthy, the only one with a problem must be her husband.
Sister Chen nodded and thanked Su Niannian.
When asked how much it would cost to take Su Niannian's pulse, Su Niannian waved her hand and said it was free, just a pulse check.
But Sister Chen still left one yuan behind.
A pulse diagnosis by a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner would cost a few cents, and a dollar wouldn't be considered too little.
Seeing that Sister Chen insisted, Su Niannian didn't refuse since it was only a dollar.
After chatting with Su Niannian for a few minutes, Sister Chen said goodbye and went home.
When Sister Chen returned home, she was a little worried, unsure how to bring up this matter with her husband.
She knew her husband loved children and longed to have his own.
I had always thought it was my problem, so my husband never brought up the topic of having children.
I always say to let nature take its course, afraid of putting Sister Chen in a difficult position.
She even pressured her family to have children, but she repeatedly suppressed the pressure, saying that she was still young and didn't want to have children so early.
If her husband knew that it was his problem, would he be able to accept it?
Over there, Zou Wenbin thought about it for a few days and finally made up his mind to get a medical check-up.
I went to work in the morning, asked for leave, and then went to the military hospital.
I went there, registered, found a doctor, and explained my situation.
The doctor said it was highly recommended that the woman come for a check-up first.
But Zou Wenbin said that he should check himself first, and if he was fine, then he could bring his wife for a check-up.
The doctor even joked that he dotes on his wife.
They ordered a test to check the activity level of the male's sperm for Zou Wenbin.
Zou Wenbin took a small container and went into the restroom to prepare for the inspection.
Then I took the items and delivered them to the laboratory.
At this point, it takes some time to check these types of items.
"Come pick up the report in six hours this afternoon!" the lab doctor told Zou Wenbin.
Zou Wenbin responded and left.
I returned to my work station and continued working. After lunch, seeing that it was almost time, I asked if I could leave earlier.
Zou Wenbin has always been diligent and conscientious at work and rarely takes leave. This morning he took leave to go to the military hospital, and returned quickly after his appointment.
So when I asked to leave early in the afternoon, my superiors immediately agreed.
They didn't make things difficult for Zou Wenbin at all, and even told him that if he wasn't feeling well, he could take a few days off to rest.
Zou Wenbin naturally refused.
He said he didn't have any major problems.
When the leader saw Zou Wenbin say this, he didn't say much, but just told him to rest more and take care of his health.
Zou Wenbin smiled and agreed, then changed his clothes and left.
On the way to the military hospital, Zou Wenbin was actually a little apprehensive.
If the problem turns out to be your own, it might damage your reputation.
But if the tests show that he has no problems, then it must be his wife who has the problem.
His wife was older than him, so his family wasn't very satisfied with her.
If her family finds out that she can't have children, it will probably put even more pressure on her.
That's not what Zou Wenbin wanted to see.
He loved his wife very much, and even though they wouldn't have children in the future, he never thought about getting a divorce.
With a mix of trepidation and excitement, Zou Wenbin arrived at the military hospital.
After entering, I went straight to the laboratory and took out my report.
