His eyes seemed to become darker as if it was an abyss, but a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, “I’ll listen to you.”
Lin Lan felt more at ease.
Han Qingsong said reluctantly, “Then, I’m leaving.”
It’s not like I’m not going to see you for a long time, this isn’t the love story of Wang Baochuan and Xue Pinggui(1). Just relax, don’t behave like a child who had just tasted the forbidden fruit.
(T/N: A historical Chinese drama about Wang Baochuan, who severed ties with her family after insisting to marry the love of her life who was poor, Xue Pinggui. He was asked to serve outstation, causing the couple to be separated for 18 years)

She first went to the Commune Health Centre and sought out Zhou Lingling, a female doctor in charge of obstetrics and gynecology, to explain her situation.
During intercourse, it would hurt. She didn’t think that it was normal, so she asked if it was possible that there was some gynecological inflammation.
Why would it still hurt even though she already had five children? She was worried, so she came to have a check-up just in case there was any illness. Otherwise, things would be troublesome.
Dr. Zhou asked a few questions, such as whether she experienced pain in the lower abdomen, itching in the genitals and so on.
Lin Lan shook her head. She paid quite a lot of attention to her hygiene, so this was not an issue for her.
After Dr. Zhou checked her, she said everything was normal— the size of the uterus was normal, the cervix was smooth and there was no erosion occurring at all.
Lin Lan then questioned why she was in pain.
Even after getting checked-up by Dr. Zhou, the pain was still prominent. Since it was no longer a pathological problem, this was probably a size issue.
She began to explain to Lin Lan about the structure of the women’s organs as she talked about both academic and popularized matters. Finally, she said, “Let’s put it this way— if your pelvis is relatively small, causing your genitals to be tighter and your husband is too big, this kind of problem may occur, wouldn’t it? This isn’t a pathological issue, so you should just pay attention to your body positions.”
After speaking, she looked at Lin Lan teasingly and smiled.
Lin Lan, “…”

Zhou Lingling was originally a small doctor in a rural village. Because she was rated as an advanced doctor, she was transferred to the Commune Health Centre and regularly went to the County Hospital for training. With multiple training experiences in regular hospitals, she had more knowledge and better medical skills than ordinary doctors of the commune.
Dr. Zhou found out that Lin Lan was a married woman who had even given birth to five children, so it was strange for her to suddenly ask about contraception. Most women from the village wouldn’t even be able to say the word ‘contraception’, so where did she learn that word from?
It was the first time a woman from the countryside asked for contraception. Even in the County, most people didn’t understand or didn’t ask for them either. Only some female cadres who wanted to improve themselves and didn’t want to be tied down by their children would ask for them.
Seeing Dr. Zhou’s expression, Lin Lan asked, “Dr. Zhou, is there no medicine?”
Zhou Lingling shook her head, “There is no medicine in the commune right now, but I’m warning you, don’t take medicine indiscriminately.”
Many people took medicine indiscriminately and killed themselves as a result of it.
Some educated youth who went to the countryside and the Commune members feared getting pregnant despite wanting to fulfill their carnal desires, so they would ask the rural doctors about contraceptive remedies.
Eating raw soybeans, using sheep intestines, eating geckos… Those were just a bunch of nonsense.
Lin Lan then asked about condoms.
