The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Seeing Shen Mingzhu nervous, Li Bing hurriedly comforted her, "Don’t worry too much, it isn’t a major illness. From the scan, we suspect liver cirrhosis. We still need to conduct a more detailed examination. Find some time to bring your uncle here for another hospital visit."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mingzhu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Not wanting to delay matters of health, the next day, she took Pei Ke to the hospital.

The examination results came back: it was clinical stage two liver cirrhosis, not too severe, with symptoms of venous blockage and varices.

Through medication and a careful diet, the condition can be alleviated and improved to prevent further deterioration.

It’s important to know that once liver cirrhosis reaches clinical stage five, there’s a significant risk it could worsen to liver cancer.

When Pei Yang got home in the evening, Shen Mingzhu told him about it.

"The doctor said the diet should be light, and he must quit smoking and drinking. Especially alcohol, as it’s hugely damaging to the liver. You’ll need to keep an eye on your uncle from now on and prevent him from drinking. Tomorrow, I’ll have Sister Yu put away all the alcohol at home and move it to the family compound."

Since it concerned Pei Ke’s health, Pei Yang took it seriously, "I’ll keep an eye on my uncle and won’t let him drink."

Yet, Shen Mingzhu still felt uneasy.
