Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 6 One is infertile, the other is sterile

Soon, her sister-in-law knocked on the door and came in. "Ningning, Comrade Sheng has arrived. You can come out too."

"Okay," Gu Jianing replied, hearing her own slightly distorted voice.

Yang Manman felt that the surroundings brightened the moment her sister-in-law turned around.

With radiant skin, red lips and white teeth, lustrous black hair, and a slender waist, she possesses an innate charm. As she moves, the hem of her skirt resembles a blooming flower.

The little girl is so beautiful.

Yang Manman sighed inwardly. No wonder the Gu family doted on her sister-in-law. Such a beautiful sister-in-law, if she weren't so demanding, she would want to spoil her too. Just looking at her was pleasing to the eye and put her in a great mood.

No wonder that Officer Sheng, even after being away for more than half a year, still remembered his sister-in-law and asked someone to come and find her.

As soon as Gu Jianing walked out, she saw the tall, upright man. His dark green military uniform accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist. He seemed to be talking to her parents. Noticing her gaze, he suddenly looked up and stared at her like a cheetah.

The little girl looked like she had dressed up carefully, and her spirits were much better than yesterday, so it seemed that she was in much better health.

Sheng Zexi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, both parties sat down.

Sheng Zexi talked about his family situation.

“My father was a leader in the Beijing Military Region. My mother passed away when I was thirteen. Six months later, my father remarried. My stepmother brought her daughter into the family. A year later, she gave birth to a boy…” Sheng Zexi’s tone was flat, as if he didn’t care much and had little emotion.

"...I am 25 years old this year and am a battalion commander in the Northwest Military Region. My salary is 101 yuan. If I go on a mission, I will receive an allowance or bonus. After getting married, people at this level can apply for housing in the family compound. If the marriage goes through, Ningning can come with me to the military."

Although Sheng Zexi had lived in the Gu family's house for a period of time, the Gu family at that time only knew that he was a deputy battalion commander in the Northwest Military Region. They never expected that he would now be a full battalion commander, a native of Beijing, and have such a powerful family background.

The father married a stepmother, and they had a son together. As the saying goes, with a stepmother comes a stepfather. Judging from Zexi's tone, he doesn't seem to have a good relationship with his family. Does his family know that Zexi came to meet his daughter this time?

Yao Chunhua couldn't help but feel a little worried, "Zexi, does your father know you've come to look at potential partners this time?"

Old Master Gu shared the same concern, "Yes, what if your father doesn't agree..."

Sheng Zexi quickly said seriously, "Uncle, Aunt, you don't need to worry. It's my own business to find a partner and get married. As long as I'm willing, I can take responsibility for everything. My relationship with my family is indeed not very good. If I can get married, I won't let Ningning have much contact with them. I can protect Ningning."

Gu Jianing recalled their previous interactions and vaguely knew that Sheng Zexi's mother had passed away early and that his relationship with his family was not good. Judging from the situation and tone, it seemed to be worse than she had imagined.

But she didn't really care.

In any case, after she married Sheng Zexi, she was assigned to a military post and probably wouldn't have much contact with the Sheng family.

Sheng Zexi: "There's one more thing..."

Sheng Zexi finally revealed that he had been wounded on the battlefield five years ago and had developed infertility.

"...The doctor said that I only have a 1% chance of getting a woman pregnant."

These words shocked not only the matchmaker, but also the Gu family.

Gu Jianing's almond-shaped eyes widened: ...I didn't know about this before.

Thinking that she might become infertile after jumping into the river, and now that Sheng Zexi is also infertile, is there any chance for them to have a child?
[Host, don't worry, you still have me. I'm the Childbirth System.] The mechanical voice in her mind pulled Gu Jianing back from her slightly worried thoughts, and she came to her senses.

[Once the host completes the beginner's quests, they will receive the Pregnancy Elixir.]

Gu Jianing spared a bit of attention to take a look at the Childbirth System. It would not only fulfill her wish to have children, but also train her to become a fertility doctor, enabling more people who were originally infertile to have children.

[New Player Quest: Bind to your first patient, treat them, and help them become pregnant. Reward: 100 points, Pregnancy Elixir.]

[Pregnancy Elixir: When taken, it can transform the body, adjusting it to a healthy state conducive to 100% conception.]

"System, do you mean that as long as I take this pill, the infertility I suffered from jumping into the river can also be cured?" Gu Jianing asked the system quietly in her mind.

[Yes, even if Sheng Zexi's chance of getting a woman pregnant is only 1%, the host can still get pregnant quickly. The host can also bind to Sheng Zexi as a patient and learn treatment methods in the Divine Doctor Space. Of course, not getting treatment is also an option...]

The system's words instantly calmed Gu Jianing down.

So, the next step is to connect with the first patient and cure his/her infertility.

The system said that as long as she binds to a patient, the Divine Doctor Space can open the learning section. The patient's information will be entered and analyzed, and she can enter it where a dedicated teacher will teach her treatment methods in a targeted manner. If she passes the test, she can also get points and rewards, and open the points mall to redeem anything.

So who should be chosen as her first patient?

"Ningning, come with me for a moment." Yao Chunhua's call interrupted Gu Jianing's thoughts.

Yao Chunhua said she needed to discuss it with her daughter, then took Gu Jianing's hand and went back to their room.

“Ningning, I never imagined that Zexi would have such a problem. Maybe we should call off this marriage.” Before this, Yao Chunhua thought Sheng Zexi was perfect in every way and couldn’t wait for her daughter to marry him. But now that Sheng Zexi has this infertility problem, how can her daughter not have children in the future?

"Mother, I plan to get married." Gu Jianing did not change her initial decision. With the help of the system, getting pregnant would not be a problem for her, but she could not tell her mother about the system.

Gu Jianing coaxed, "Mom, you forgot that I'm a vocational school student majoring in medical care. My teacher saw that I was likable, so he specially taught me a unique method to treat infertility. I think I can treat Brother Sheng's body. Besides, although there's only a 1% chance, it's not entirely hopeless. Maybe your daughter will get lucky and get pregnant. Oh, and I'm also planning to find some time to treat my sister-in-law."

At this moment, Gu Jianing had already made up her mind to make her sister-in-law Yang Manman her first patient.

"Really?" Yao Chunhua asked, still somewhat skeptical.

To be honest, she was actually a little fooled. Putting luck aside, the fact that her daughter was likable and the teacher would like her might actually mean that the teacher would teach her skills.

Moreover, the daughter also said that she planned to treat her eldest daughter-in-law. The eldest son and his wife had been married for three years but still did not have children, which was a source of great anxiety for Yao Chunhua and her husband.

Although she didn't urge them, she and her husband were both hoping that their eldest son and his wife would have a child soon.

If Ningning can really cure her eldest daughter-in-law with that unique method of treating infertility, then it's also possible for her to cure Zexi.

Gu Jianing hugged her mother's arm, blinked, and said coquettishly, "Mom, am I the kind of person who would lie to you? Besides, children are so important to us women, would I possibly lie to you about this?"

"...Okay, okay, so you've decided?"

"Decided!"
