Chapter 272 Sudden Production
So the first person to hear Li Zhu's movement was Xue Niang. She turned over and called the maid.
"Chunning, Sixth Sister-in-law is about to give birth?"
Chun Ning was also in the house. When he heard this, he got up in a hurry and took a look. Sure enough, he saw that Xitang Courtyard was brightly lit.
So he returned and said to Xue Niang.
"Miss, it's probably true. Should we go over and have a look?"
"That's natural. Hurry up and send someone a message to my sister-in-law, my grandmother, my fourth aunt, and by the way, my sixth brother and the Du family! Don't forget them."
"Yes, miss."
These days, Xue Niang has been with Mrs. Gu, and she has learned some ability to calm down and deal with emergencies, so the arrangements are very appropriate.
And she got out of bed immediately, cleaned up briefly and hurried to Xitang Courtyard.
The west side room of Xitang Courtyard was the delivery room that had been prepared early, so all the necessary things were complete, so there was no need to rush.
Xue Niang wanted to go in as soon as she arrived, but was stopped by Granny Ge beside her.
"Miss, you are waiting to be married and cannot enter the delivery room."
Hearing this, Xue Niang was also very upset, but soon her sister-in-law Liu came in a hurry and said to Grandma Ge.
"Stop Miss, I'll go in and take a look."
"yes."
Sister-in-law Liu smelled the smell of blood as soon as she entered, which suddenly brought her back to what happened in her childhood many years ago, but she soon regained her composure, walked to Du Jingyi and said.
"How's it going? Are you okay?"
Du Jingyi couldn't describe what she was feeling at the moment. Her water was still breaking from time to time, and her pain was also coming in waves.
Her hair was already wet, and her whole body felt extremely uncomfortable.
The words could not be said clearly, so sister-in-law Liu asked the midwife next to her.
"How is it going?"
"Back to the young lady, the general's wife's water broke first, so we have to induce labor quickly, otherwise the baby will easily hold it in."
It was chilling to hear this.
"Originally, the water should not have been broken first, but the blood should have been seen first, but the young master was too strong and the water broke all at once, so the young lady will have to suffer a little."
When necessary, they might even take action.
Midwives are experienced and prepared, so Du Jingyi's situation is not too difficult for them to handle.
"The Soul-Reviving Pill, the Soul-Reviving Pill, this is specially sent by Dr. Wang, just in case the young lady loses her strength."
This time the soul pill has been checked, so there is no problem, and the midwife also said happily when she heard about it.
"Hurry up and hold it in your mouth, Madam. This way it won't be easy to faint."
"yes."
Du Jingyi felt that his body felt much better because he had taken the Soul Pill. The medicine in the palace was really strong, and Du Jingyi suddenly gained strength.
Seeing her reaction, the midwife stopped talking and said to Du Jingyi.
"Young madam, I'm going to take offense because of my little master."
After saying that, he exerted force on Du Jingyi's belly. The movement was so big that she couldn't help but roar.
Du Jingyi never thought that giving birth would be so painful, and this kind of pain was indescribable in words. The midwife pushed down on her belly, loosening and tightening for a while, and her body also felt the strength.
He pulled the curtains left and right to exert some effort on himself.
Xue Niang was anxiously wandering around outside. After a while, Mrs. Gu came in a hurry, supported by her fourth aunt.
With worries in his eyes, he asked when he saw the longing figure in the east room.
"how's it going?"
"Grandma, my sister-in-law is taking care of things inside. I can't get in, so I don't know."
Mrs. Gu glanced at her fourth aunt and said to her.
"You stay outside with Xue Niang, wait for Dr. Wang to arrive, and report immediately."
"Yes, mother-in-law."
After that, Mrs. Gu also entered the door, and then saw Du Jingyi who was wailing on the bed.
It had only been half an hour since her water broke, and her stomach was feeling heavy, but her body wasn't quite ready yet, so the midwife said.
"I estimate it will take another hour or two. Madam, you don't need to use force at any time. Just wait until the slave lets you use force."
Du Jingyi was no longer in the mood to answer her, so he could only nod.
Fortunately, her child was not that big, so although it was difficult to give birth, it was not that difficult.
Mrs. Gu came over and took Du Jingyi's hand and said.
"We have already called for your mother's family and Shaoyu. Don't worry, we are all here and the birth will go smoothly."
Du Jingyi had tears in his eyes and sweat all over his head.
The pain in her body came one after another, and she was working hard to cooperate with the midwife.
On the outskirts of the city, Shang Ji rushed back frantically after receiving the news.
It only took two days for him to go home and be with Du Jingyi, but he didn't expect the child to arrive so quickly, which caught him off guard.
Therefore, the horses kept running wildly as if they were having fun, making it difficult for Luo Yuan behind to catch up, so he could only shout to the brothers behind him.
"Hurry up."
"yes."
A series of hoofbeats startled the crows everywhere, and they flew away in a noisy manner.
The Du family's carriage and horses also came late at night, and met patrolling soldiers on the road. The driver revealed the news that he was rushing to the Duke's Mansion, and the soldiers immediately let them go.
"Is it possible that the lady from the general's residence is giving birth?"
"Who knows? Just wait and hear tomorrow."
The patrolling soldiers continued, without being delayed by the Du family's carriage.
Mr. Du, Mrs. Du, Du Jingxiang and He Shilin all came. Because they were outsiders, Mr. Du and He Shilin stayed in the front hall to wait for news, while Mrs. Du and Du Jingxiang went straight to Xitang Courtyard.
In Xitang Courtyard, some suppressed voices came from time to time.
Mrs. Du was so scared when she heard it that she immediately came over crying.
"Son, mother is here, mother is here."
Du Jingxiang helped his mother to go to the east room, and the fourth aunt and Xue Niang also hurriedly made way. At this time, they could not care about etiquette.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw Du Jingyi biting a handkerchief in his mouth and pulling the curtain with both hands. Mrs. Du's tears flowed down.
"Tangtang, Tangtang... Mother is here, here, how are you?"
Old Madam Gu and sister-in-law Liu stood up and gave the seats in front of Du Jingyi to Madam Du and Du Jingxiang. At this time, everyone wants to be with their family, and they understand this very well.
"Don't worry, mother-in-law, everything is fine. The midwife said that the baby will be born soon."
"That's good, that's good..."
Du Jingyi also saw her mother coming, so she couldn't hold back and cried out.
