Mrs. Qiao came back soon. After her belly became pregnant, the number of times she went to the toilet increased. She was actually quite annoyed, but there was nothing she could do about it.
After coming back, Mrs. Qiao tidied up her clothes. After sitting down, she found that Mrs. Zheng was not there. She probably knew that the other party was in a similar situation to her, so she didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she talked to Dong Nuan about the popular tricks in the capital.
.
After talking for a while, Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but feel greedy, and thought of the peach tree in Dongnuan Village.
Probably because of her pregnancy, Mrs. Qiao felt that her skin was getting thicker. She gently touched her upper gum with the tip of her tongue and asked in a low voice: "Are the peaches on Liu Mei Zhuangzi ripe?"
If it was cooked, she would have to take a bite before giving birth.
Otherwise, after giving birth and during the confinement period, you will never be able to eat a bite of fresh peach in a short period of time.
Hearing her ask this, Dong Nuan thought about the news from Zhuangzi before, nodded and said: "It's coming soon, it's coming soon."
Perhaps he understood what Mr. Qiao was thinking, so Dong Nuan smiled after saying: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, it will be cooked before you give birth."
After hearing Dong Nuan's words, Ms. Qiao smiled reassuringly, and was about to wave her hands to be polite when she saw the maid next to Ms. Zheng running in in a panic.
After all, the Cao Mansion is a big mansion, and the rules are usually strict. Now when she saw the maid running away without manners, Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but frown and shouted angrily: "How can you behave in such a hurry?"
The maid didn't care about this, ran in, threw herself on the ground, and yelled: "It's not good, it's not good, the second young lady fell down!"
When everyone heard the news, they were stunned at first. After reacting, Cao Feng ran the fastest and rushed out without even having time to put on his cloak. The earth dragon in the banquet hall was also very hot. After everyone came in, outside
I took off my smock, cloak, etc., even though I was wearing something quite thick underneath.
But now that it’s cold, the few clothes I have will be worn out if I go out for a walk.
However, Cao Feng obviously no longer cared about that. After hearing the news, his face turned pale. After reacting, he rushed away.
The other brothers, as well as Hanjianglou, all came out one after another after reacting.
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she hurriedly wanted to get up, but as soon as she got up, her stomach hurt suddenly, and she sat down again uncomfortably.
Seeing her like this, Dong Nuan was afraid that she might have a fetal fright, so he hurriedly comforted her for a while: "Don't panic, don't be afraid, everyone is here, everyone is here."
Mrs. Qiao was comforted and her mood finally stabilized, but she was still worried: "Would you like to go and see why it fell? What if it fell..."
She has been pregnant for nine months, and if she really falls out, both of them may die.
Qiao was worried as she talked. It was so hot in the room that she was already breaking out into a cold sweat.
Dong Nuan comforted her for a while, and then said to the maid beside Mrs. Qiao: "Take good care of the young lady."
Then he said to Mr. Qiao: "I'll go take a look, don't worry."
After that, he took Qingzhu out to have a look.
The elders were originally still in their own courtyards, thinking of giving the young people some space before sitting down at the table when the time came.
Now that I heard the news, I can't sit still.
The eldest aunt came out first and ran the fastest. In the cold weather, she was covered in sweat.
Mrs. Cao's second wife is in Liangzhou, and her daughter-in-law stays in the capital. If something happens, she will have to bear a lot of complaints.
Therefore, he must be running the fastest at this time, and the doctor Wen Po has been invited to the house.
Mrs. Zheng has a big belly and may give birth at any time. Could she give birth directly after this fall?
Mrs. Cao must have to make a lot of preparations.
When Mrs. Cao heard the news, she followed out regardless of the cold weather.
Suddenly, the house was filled with hurried footsteps, there were lanterns and candles everywhere, and there were silhouettes and footsteps everywhere.
Dong Nuan walked for a long time before going to Cao Feng's yard.
At this moment, the men were all left outside, and the servants helped the masters prepare their smocks and cloaks early and put them on, so as not to freeze again in the cold weather.
The situation in the house is unknown now, but as soon as Dongnuan came over, Mrs. Zheng's screams were heard.
This situation sounds like it's going to happen.
She was still a month away from giving birth, and her amniotic fluid really broke. At this time, she could only give medicine to induce birth, otherwise both the baby and the adults would be in danger.
After Dong Nuan came over, he first made eye contact with Hanjianglou, and then hurriedly walked into the house.
Mrs. Cao has come over and is pacing back and forth outside. Her hands are rubbing each other, which shows that she is extremely nervous.
After Dong Nuan came in, she raised her head and sighed, "Why are you here? Your second sister-in-law is probably going to give birth early. I'm afraid I'll scare you."
After all, Dong Nuan has never given birth, and now they hear the Zheng family in the back giving birth to a child, crying and howling like ghosts and wolves, no matter how frightened they are, and they are even more unwilling to give birth to a child, then their sin is even greater.
Dong Nuan didn't care, although Zheng's voice sounded a bit sad.
However, it is actually not bad and can be tolerated.
Not wanting Mrs. Cao to worry, Dong Nuan smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, I'm just worried. Come and have a look."
Hearing what she said, Mrs. Cao couldn't say much, and she didn't have much intention to say anything. She only signaled to Dong Nuan that if she felt tired, she could sit down for a while.
She didn't want to sit down, so she asked about the situation inside from time to time.
Mrs. Cao came over soon after. When she arrived, she asked about the situation: "What's wrong? How is the child?"
After hearing her words, Dong Nuan's heart skipped a beat, but it wasn't too awkward.
Probably when Cao Xinyao asked her husband to take a concubine, the awkwardness in her heart had passed, and she was no longer surprised by this kind of thought or concept in the ancient world.
Therefore, after Mrs. Cao came in, she didn't ask how Zheng was doing, she only cared about the child. After hearing this, Dong Nuan just felt her heart skip a beat and nothing else.
Mrs. Cao didn't think there was anything wrong with Mrs. Cao's words, and responded hurriedly: "If you see red, you must be giving birth. The doctor has given me birth-inducing medicine, and I am working hard to give birth now."
When she heard that the medicine had been given, Mrs. Cao felt much relieved. Only then did she see Dong Nuan here.
However, she didn't have the intention to say anything more. She just nodded and smiled reluctantly. Her mind was still on Mrs. Zheng in the inner room, or the child in Mrs. Zheng's belly.
Mrs. Zheng was still screaming. Dong Nuan listened for a while and felt horrified.
Po Wen had already arrived and was teaching Zheng how to exert strength and how to exhale.
From time to time, Dong Nuan could hear Wen Po's urgent voice: "Don't scream, use all your strength..."
Going back and forth, Zheng would occasionally stop, but most of the time, she still screamed unbearably.
Mrs. Cao was listening on the side and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Brother Feng's wife is too squeamish. No one from Brother Cheng's family could scream like her when she was born."
