The room was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Mrs. Su, who had been by the bedside all the time, turned pale at the moment, her brows were furrowed tightly, and there was panic in her eyes.
Liu Yuelan and He Daxiang were also in a state of confusion. They had both given birth to children before, but this was the first time they had encountered such a difficult situation as Xiuer's.
"The pregnant woman is having a difficult labor! I'm afraid it won't be easy!" Po Wen was specially found by Big Beard from the border town and is very experienced in delivering babies. "You have to be prepared. When it's really dangerous, it's better to keep the baby alive!"
The faces of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law suddenly turned pale, and they all looked at the woman lying on the bed.
After getting pregnant, Big Beard and Su Xiuer have been living in the Su family so that she can get better care.
After eating well and sleeping well during this period, Su Xiuer's whole body was much more plump than before. Even so, the belly as big as a basket pressing on her seemed to be able to suppress her breath.
After several hours of difficult labor, Su Xiuer was already in a state of collapse. Her sweaty hair was messy and stuck to her forehead and cheeks. She looked weak and embarrassed. She fell into a daze, leaving only her subconscious.
She closed her eyes tightly and uttered two words from her pale lips, "...take care of me!"
"Keep her safe!" Before Mrs. Su could say anything, a man's hoarse, tearing voice came from outside the window, "Keep her safe!"
When the woman on the bed heard this, her lips trembled violently, and tears overflowed from her tightly closed eyes.
Mrs. Su gritted her teeth hard and wiped away her daughter's tears with red eyes. Then she looked at Mrs. Wen with firm eyes. When she spoke, the tears that had been held in her eyes fell from her eyes, "If the situation is really dangerous... protect her!"
In this case, my daughter’s life is the most important!
If anyone has to bear the guilt and resentment after the choice, her old lady will bear it!
Liu Yuelan and He Daxiang both had trembling lips, unable to say a word at this time.
In a different place, if they were in the same situation as Xiu'er, they would also choose to keep their children small because they are mothers.
But similarly, the mother-in-law is also a mother, and it is her daughter who is lying on the bed wandering through hell.
When it is necessary to give up one party, then you can only give up...
"Ugh——!" Another sharp pain hit her lower abdomen. Su Xiuer almost fainted from the pain. She had no strength to speak anymore. While she was panting violently, her heart hurt more than her body, and despair surged out of her heart.
Outside the room, the atmosphere in the courtyard was extremely depressing and solemn.
Until several familiar shouts appeared, from far to near.
"Back! Mr. Du, Tianbao and the others are back!" Wang Chuan shouted anxiously.
There are also children shouting, "Grandma, Grandma! Auntie!"
As the shouts floated into the ears, two figures arrived first and fell into the courtyard.
The old man in the bird's nest and the young girl in a green coat.
Seeing them, the bearded gray eyes suddenly burst into light. He struggled to throw away the person who was restraining him and rushed towards the two of them. There was only about ten steps between them. He staggered three times before he caught the old man and the girl's clothes. "Old man, Tianbao, save Xiuer!"
Without saying a word, the old man took out the medicine bottle from his body and stuffed it into Tianbao's hand, "This is Ma Fei Powder! You have other medicinal materials, go quickly!"
"Uncle, do you want a big one or a small one?" The girl's voice was as calm and calm as ever, and she asked this question as she walked towards the house.
The bearded man said without hesitation, "Be big! Children are the icing on the cake for me. I can live without them, but I can never live without Xiu'er!"
The girl paused for a moment, then turned around, her almond-shaped eyes bright and gentle, "Leave it to me."
The tension in Big Beard's heart that was about to break suddenly relaxed. His legs gave out and he fell to the ground.
Entering the room, several pairs of red eyes looked at Tianbao. There was no time to say anything else at this time. She quickly walked to the bed, first fed a Huanhuan Dan to the semi-conscious woman, and then gave her some hemp. It boiled away, and finally she pressed a thin slice of ginseng under the tip of her tongue.
After making these preparations, she turned to look at Wen Po beside her, "Please, please help me pick up the fetus later."
Po Wen was stunned for a moment, thinking she didn't know the current situation, so she hurriedly explained, "Girl, the situation of pregnant women is very dangerous. It took four hours to give birth. Even the scalp was not exposed for such a long time. The fetus in the belly has been affected. It's very dangerous." He may have been suffocated in the abdomen. I have experience in delivering babies. In this case, I can only protect one from the other——"
Tianbao said softly, "I want to be big, but I also want to be small. Just help me."
Po Wen looked troubled.
Mrs. Su said firmly, "Listen to my granddaughter! Whatever she says is fine!"
Liu Yuelan and He Daxiang had the same idea.
Since the master asked so, Po Wen took the money to do things and didn't say much anymore.
Originally Wenpo thought she only had to wait to deliver the baby, but what happened next left her stunned and almost pissed her off.
The extremely beautiful and cold girl picked up a knife as thin as a blade and cut open the pregnant woman's belly right under her nose!
His expression was calm and composed, as if he was poaching a pig!
Po Wen immediately wanted to push her over!
…
The people waiting outside had no idea what was going on in the room.
I could only hear the girl's cold words from time to time in the room.
"Disinfect with wine."
"Crochet hook, catgut."
"Wipe the blood."
The women helping in front of the door came and went, pouring out basins of blood and pouring basins of dried boiling water in.
The light of day finally faded away and night fell.
And in the room, there was the sound of a baby crying.
"Give birth, give birth! Two big fat boys! Mother and son are safe!" Po Wen's joyful voice came out of the window.
The courtyard was quiet for a moment, then cheered suddenly.
The poisonous old man's face that had been tense for a long time relaxed, his triangular eyes narrowed into slits, he raised his hand and patted the bearded man on the shoulder, "Both mother and son are safe! You old man, you are a father, you will have a son when you are old, even Bai Kui must be short in front of you" A piece!"
Before he finished speaking, the old man's hand was empty.
He turned his head and glared at the bearded man sitting on the ground. The corners of his mouth twitched, "The old man didn't use force. I didn't slap you on the ground!"
The bearded eyeballs slowly moved, moved up, and faced the old man, and asked tremblingly, "Are mother and son safe?"
"hold head high."
"Xiu'er is okay?"
"hold head high."
good.
The bearded man rolled his eyelids and pouted.
Poison does not invade, "..."
The men of the Su family, "..."
The villagers gathered in the courtyard didn't know who made the sound first, and then the whole courtyard was filled with hahaha.
When the bearded man woke up, the small courtyard was full of joy. He was lying on the bamboo chair in the main room, not knowing who moved him in.
It is not advisable for a woman to make any noise after giving birth. The villagers left one after another after helping. The family members gathered around the brazier in the main room and talked at the top of their lungs, beaming with joy.
"Are you awake? You poked him in fear, you are really worthless." Seeing him wake up, the poisonous old man laughed unceremoniously, and then said, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and see your wife and son!"
The bearded man rushed into the room.
The room had been cleaned and the blood was weak. His wife was lying on the bed with her eyes closed and asleep. Her face was very pale, but her breathing was even.
There were two embroidered swaddling clothes with red background on the side of the bed, and there was a soft sound of breathing in the swaddling clothes.
The bearded man moved stiffly and approached the wooden bed step by step. He held his wife's hand that was exposed under the quilt tremblingly. With this support, his eyes moved little by little and fell on the two swaddles.
Two little faces that were no bigger than his palm, red and wrinkled, with small noses and small mouths... they slept soundly.
The bearded man's gaze was fixed on the two small faces, his chin gently pressed against the back of his wife's hand, and he grinned.
Smiling with tears on his face.
