The old woman pushed away her son's tugging hand and gave Qin Feng an apologetic smile. "Doctor Qin, you're a good person, so I won't beat around the bush. I'll tell you the truth: we country folks are very poor. We simply can't afford to stay here. Since my daughter-in-law has already given birth, I thought it would be better if you just let us take her home. I can do the chores while keeping an eye on her at the same time. It's much better than staying here and throwing money away for nothing. Not to mention we'd have to spare an extra person to keep her company, which delays our farm work."
Qin Feng pressed his lips into a tight line and stared at her blankly. After a long while, he finally said, "If you want her to die, then take her back!"
The old woman froze. She stared blankly and asked, "Why would she die? Hasn't she already given birth?"
