If you don't consummate the marriage for three years and then marry a successful educated youth

Lin Fengjiao disregarded everything else and hurriedly took the money to the hospital to see a doctor. Looking at the doctor anxiously, she said, "Doctor, what should I do if my child has a marble in his stomach?"

"Won't this cause stomach aches and pains later on because it can't pass stool? Honestly, why is it so disobedient?"

Mingming sobbed, "Mother, I was wrong."

The doctor adjusted his glasses and reassured, "It's alright. Children this age are just being mischievous. They're always trying to eat marbles or coins. It's actually a good thing they didn't get stuck."

"After that, just observe them more closely, give them some medicine to help them defecate, and parents should use a stick to stir it to make sure the marble has come out."

"In general, it will be excreted, but there are exceptions where the child's intestines have some developmental problems and they can't excrete it, so surgery is the only option, which can be very painful."

Lin Fengjiao's expression changed instantly, and she became somewhat flustered: "Surgery? How can such young children have surgery? It's too dangerous, and they can't withstand anesthesia."

The doctor said helplessly, "Yes, that's why you need to get it out as soon as possible. Observe it for a week. If it goes from the stomach to the intestines, it will be relatively easier to get it out."

"But if it gets stuck in the stomach, this is a glass stomach and it can't digest it. It will need to be removed by gastroscopy, which will cause the child more suffering and will cost a lot more money."

"The third scenario is that the intestines have descended, but due to intestinal development issues, it cannot be expelled. This is more complicated and requires surgery..."

Lin Fengjiao's face was very pale. She swallowed hard, momentarily at a loss, and said somewhat flusteredly, "Then please prescribe the medicine for me first. I'll have them take it as soon as I get back."

The doctor nodded: "Okay, let the child eat more dry food, so that the marble will be easier to pass. If the child has diarrhea, the marble will be harder to pass. Also, observe whether the child vomits."

"Some children may start vomiting on the fifth day, and they should be taken to the hospital immediately. Don't be careless, okay?"

"Okay, I understand. Please prescribe the medicine as soon as possible."

All she wanted to do now was feed them quickly and get rid of those damn marbles as soon as possible. Her head was buzzing, and she was incredibly anxious. She knew she shouldn't have come back.

It's always trouble when I come back. I'd rather stay there and take good care of my facial injuries. My head hurts too.

She took the medicine and led the two children back home. Her face was grim and the atmosphere was tense. The twins didn't dare to utter a sound, afraid of being beaten by her.

As soon as Lin Fengjiao opened the door, the house was filled with thick smoke and a burnt smell. Her mind went blank for a moment, and she rushed into the kitchen as if remembering something. The medicine on the stove had long since boiled dry.

She quickly put out the fire, carried the pot to the balcony, and looked at the hole that had been burned through it; she almost burst into tears.

"Ugh, this is so annoying, so incredibly annoying! When will I ever have a moment of peace?"

When Shen Qingshu returned home that evening, he heard that his house had caught fire. The smell of burning was still there when he entered the house, and his face darkened. He said, "Feng Jiao, come out here."

Lin Fengjiao lingered in the house for a while before slowly coming out. She hurriedly went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes, keeping her head down and not saying a word, her voice carrying a hint of caution.

"Qingshu, I didn't mean to. Mingming ate the marble, and I was in a hurry to take him to the hospital. I forgot that there was still Chinese medicine being brewed on the stove. I'm sorry."

"You ate marbles? Where did those marbles come from?"

Shen Qingshu stared at her in shock, his voice rising involuntarily: "Don't tell me you bought them marbles. They're only three years old, what do they know? How could you buy them marbles?"

"I didn't know that such a big child would put everything in his mouth to taste. How do you raise a child? My mother used to take care of two children and my father, and there was never such a big problem."

"Lin Fengjiao, tell me the truth, are you brainless? How did you even get into high school? Do you need someone to tell you this? Look around the compound, who gives marbles to such a small family?"

Lin Fengjiao was given a severe scolding. Knowing she was in the wrong, she pouted and didn't dare to say a word. Only after he finished scolding her did she whisper, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I really didn't know I couldn't give it to her."

"I threw away the rest, and I won't give them any more in the future. Waaah, please don't be mean to me. I don't even have time to take my own medicine. I'm so upset."

Shen Qingshu took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. For the first time, he felt a little regretful. Should he have married an only child? If he had married someone with many younger brothers and sisters, she would have been more sensible and capable than this one.

No, that kind of burden is too heavy, so he definitely wouldn't marry someone who is uneducated, uncultured, vulgar, and ugly; he wouldn't even look at her.

She took out a handkerchief and handed it to him, her tone softening slightly: "Wipe your hands. I know it's not easy for you either, but taking care of a child requires extra thought and care."

"Children are young and don't understand things, so adults have to take good care of them. If something goes wrong, it will affect them for a lifetime."

Lin Fengjiao glanced at his face, wiped away her tears, and sobbed, "I understand. The doctor said we need to expel it as soon as possible. If it doesn't come out within seven days, it will be troublesome."

"I might need surgery. The child is too young to handle it, so I'm planning to go out and sell roast chicken so the child can eat better and eat more dry food, which will help pull the marble out."

"Don't worry, Qingshu, I will take responsibility for this. I won't let the child actually have the surgery."

Shen Qingshu's brow twitched, and she felt a terrible headache: "Okay, then go buy it. Make sure the baby comes out as soon as possible. I have to go to work and won't have time to watch over it, so you have to be extra careful."

Lin Fengjiao nodded repeatedly. Seeing that his expression wasn't so bad, she felt a little relieved: "Okay, then you watch the children, I'll go buy roast chicken and some good food for them."

"Okay, you should go quickly."

After three days of this ordeal, Lin Fengjiao, while dry heaving and stirring her feces, finally found the marble and breathed a sigh of relief.

Congcong watched with resentment. Why did the woman who only gave meat to her younger brother not give him any? This woman was up to no good, a bad woman.

Mingming never imagined that just swallowing a marble would allow him to eat roast chicken, braised pork, and rice every day. He was living such a good life that he even wanted to eat another marble.

But after glancing at the woman's expression, I decided against it for now. If she found out I had deliberately eaten it, I would definitely get a beating.

After dealing with the children, Lin Fengjiao slumped onto the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling, and murmured, "I'm tired. You all go back to your room and sleep."

"Stop joking, I'm really too tired."

The twins nodded obediently: "Okay, Mom, you should rest well. We promise we won't disturb you. Brother, come inside."

As soon as the door closed, Lin Fengjiao felt relieved, her nose tingled, and she covered her face, unable to hold back her tears. The tears rolled down her cheeks, bringing a slight stinging sensation.
