Chapter 793: Chapter 799 Pretending to be Decent_1
In the evening, Chen Yiling had trouble eating the appetizing meal before her, as she had already eaten a lot at lunch at the Tan Family, and eating again in the evening would surely make her gain weight.
"Miss, is it not to your taste?" the maidservant asked anxiously.
If that was the case, she would consider making something different the next day.
Chen Yiling said gloomily, "Look at me now, I’m getting so fat it’s unseemly. If only I could eat without getting fat."
Alas, she envied Duo’er more and more.
"People who eat a lot without gaining weight mostly have stomach issues. They absorb less and have to compensate with quantity," the maidservant comforted her softly.
For Yi Ling, gaining a moderate amount of weight was healthy, and it could also help with having children.
Chen Yiling asked urgently, "What about if it’s a pregnant woman? Will it affect the child in any way?"
"That could also be a sign of pregnancy cravings. Some people throw up because of it, while others just want to keep eating. I can’t say for sure. It’s best to have a doctor take a look," the maidservant said.
The maidservant deliberately left herself some leeway, as she was not a professional doctor.
However, eating a lot without gaining weight was somewhat problematic.
Chen Yiling nodded. The next morning, she sent ChunTao to Deji Hall to speak to Bai Yifan about this matter.
Duo’er was in a critical period, and there could be no mistakes.
Bai Yifan took the matter seriously, and half an hour later, he appeared at the Tan Family residence.
"What are you doing here?" Tan Zhenghong still harbored hostility towards Bai Yifan.
Bai Yifan said indifferently, "I’ve come to check on Duo’er, to make sure she receives timely treatment if needed."
Tan Zhenghong still did not want Bai Yifan to see his daughter-in-law, but for Duo’er’s health, he compromised.
Seeing Bai Yifan taking her pulse, as serene as an old monk in meditation, Tan Zhenghong thought he was being overly concerned.
That guy was obsessed with medicine; he probably wouldn’t have any other thoughts while treating a patient.
After a while, Bai Yifan said, "Let’s try the other hand."
This time Bai Yifan took her pulse for a particularly long time. Although his face was still serious, a certain short-tempered feline couldn’t bear it any longer.
Who else’s doctor took pulses like this?
But he was afraid of disturbing Bai Yifan’s diagnosis, so he had to endure it.
He endured and endured, until he couldn’t take it anymore, then he asked with a dark face, "How much longer do you need?"
This loafer kept holding onto his daughter-in-law’s hand, what for?
He knew it, Bai Yifan was a fake gentleman!
"I am a doctor, I have to be thorough, otherwise it would be disregarding a life," Bai Yifan said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Tan Zhenghong barely contained his anger and asked, "How is the situation?"
If Bai Yifan couldn’t give a clear diagnosis, he would beat him first then talk!
"She’s been hungry for too long in the past, leading to a weak stomach. But now, the only solution is dietary therapy. I’ll tell you a few medicinal recipes in a moment; you should prepare them for Duo’er to eat," Bai Yifan said seriously. Moreover, Duo’er was in a special condition, and it was crucial for her to eat well.
Tan Zhenghong nodded, "Write down several, Duo’er is picky. She will be in a bad mood if she always has to eat the same thing."
Bai Yifan said silently, he not only needed to write several recipes but also the more complex ones.
Hmm, he admitted he was intentionally making things difficult for Tan Zhenghong.
His reasoning was simple: if Tan Zhenghong becomes a comfortable father, he definitely wouldn’t care enough about Duo’er and the child.
After learning about Duo’er’s health, Tan Zhenghong’s attention was solely on her.
Bai Yifan gave him a big roll of the eyes, "Hurry up and get the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. I need to write the prescription."
He was Tan Zhenghong’s uncle by marriage and had to maintain that status.
Once Tan Zhenghong brought over the items, Bai Yifan commanded, "Grind the ink for me."
