Changyu returned home with a full load, and even Mingda couldn't help but choose a piece of jade, a very beautiful mutton-fat jade. She planned to have someone tie it into a bracelet and carry it with her later.
Seeing that it was getting late, Man Bao got up and sent them out, and Zhou Lijun also sent them to the door with a big belly.
Seeing that their carriage had gone away, Zhou Lijun held his stomach and was about to turn back when he suddenly said "Ah". Man Bao quickly reached out to support her and said, "What's wrong?"
"I, I seem to have twisted my waist. No, no, I seem to be bleeding, or my water has broken? Sister-in-law, sister-in-law..."
Man Bao took one look and said, "Don't be afraid, she's probably about to give birth."
She said: "These are the days I'm counting. It's normal. Don't be afraid. I won't be born for a while. Come on, I'll help you go back."
Zhou Lijun took only one step but was unwilling to leave. She felt wet and seemed to be dripping down. She was a little scared and shook her head: "No, no, I can't walk."
Man Bao thought so and quickly turned to look at Bai Shan. Bai Shan had already sent someone to carry the spring stool.
After hearing the news, Xiang Mingxue ran over. Because he was running in a hurry, his feet looked a little lame. He looked at Zhou Lijun with sweat on his head. He wanted to reach out but didn't dare, "What should I do?"
He wanted to hug someone, but he knew that he definitely couldn't afford Zhou Lijun's hug at this time.
Zhou Lijun took a deep breath after listening to her sister-in-law's words and slowly calmed down. She comforted Xiang Mingxue and said, "I'm fine, I'll wait."
The servant quickly brought a spring stool over, and a quilt was spread on it.
Man Bao helped her lie down, then held the spring stool and had someone carry her to the delivery room.
After entering the delivery room, Manbao took a look at her and said with some surprise: "You are about to give birth so soon?"
Zhou Lijun also felt fast, which was different from what her sister-in-law and sister-in-law had told her, "Sister-in-law, didn't you say that labor pains would take a long time before labor started? I, I didn't feel any pain."
Man Bao said: "This shows that the child loves you. He is a good boy."
Man Bao comforted her and said to her: "Don't be afraid. Although you are about to give birth, it will take time for the cervix to open. Just lie down and listen to me. You will be fine."
Man Bao helped Zhou Lijun adjust her breathing, and after making sure she was relaxed again, he went out to ask for Wen Po.
That's right, Mrs. Wen still has to come to deliver the baby, even if Zhou Man is here.
Xiao Qian quickly washed her hands and came over, and also brought several Fangs over to help.
This is not the first time for any of them to have a baby, especially Xiao Qian. In recent years, she has often helped her sisters-in-law when they gave birth, so they arranged the outside with great interest, hot water and cold water, brown sugar and eggs.
There are brown sugar eggs.
Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zheng also rushed over.
The yard was suddenly filled with people.
However, the delivery room was very quiet. Only Man Bao was busy with Western cakes and Wu Yue. When Xiao Qian came in, she wanted to kick them all out. After all, they were all little girls. They couldn't even get married, so they came to deliver babies...
…
But she endured it, took a look outside and said, "It's true that your Imperial Medical Office doesn't give students a holiday during the Mid-Autumn Festival, otherwise there would be Liru at home to help you."
Man Bao said vaguely: "We will release it after the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Since we had to bring many people from the Imperial Medical Office this time, the news would be leaked before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so the Imperial Medical Office directly sealed the place and prohibited students from entering or exiting.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the emperor's personal expedition was announced to the world, they would be able to come out.
Man Bao was ready. After confirming that nothing was missing, she even took out the needle bag and put it aside. She nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, there's no problem. Now we just have to wait."
Wait until her cervix is open enough to deliver the baby.
Wen's mother-in-law's house was not close to each other. Although the old Zhou family had already made a reservation with her, because both of them were having their first child, according to experience, it would take a long time to start labor after labor pains, so no one thought about it.
People are taken to their homes to be raised.
So it still took a lot of time to go back and forth.
As soon as Po Wen arrived, she was about to rush into the delivery room, but was stopped by Wuyue and Xibing who were waiting outside. She went to the side room to change clothes and washed her hands before putting them in.
Po Wen smiled and said, "Oh, I didn't forget. I changed my clothes on the way here. I'll wash them again when I go in."
She and Dr. Zhou are no longer strangers, and she has delivered babies for more than ten years, so she still knows this rule.
Wuyue smiled and said: "Don't be surprised, this is the first time our second aunt has given birth to a baby, so she is a little nervous."
After Wen Po was cleaned and sent in, Man Bao was already standing in front of the bed to guide Zhou Lijun. Zhou Lijun had practiced before, so he didn't make a fuss. Instead, he took a deep breath, held it in and then followed his sister-in-law's instructions.
A lot of effort, but...
It really hurts, it hurts...
Even the corners of Zhou Lijun's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears. Xiao Qian wiped her tears at the side and held her hand tightly.
Man Bao adjusted her posture again and said to her: "You are not using the right strength. Slow down for a while. I will let you inhale in a while. Just hold it in and then use more strength..."
Wenpo went up to take a look, and Manbao gave up his seat to her.
Po Wen asked: "Is the fetal position correct?"
"just!"
Po Wen took a look at the size of her belly and found that it was not very big. She had seen Zhou Lijun before and knew that her pelvis was fine, so she said: "Madam, don't panic, your belly is not big, and the fetal position is correct.
After a while, the cervix will open, and after a while, the baby will be born. Come on, follow me and inhale, exhale, inhale and exhale again, take a deep breath, hold it in, hold it in, sink down, push down hard..."
Manbao:……
If it was obviously the same, why did her strength go out of control when she was giving instructions, and why was it right when Wen Po came?
Zhou Lijun was clenching his hands tightly at this time, closing his mouth and eyes tightly and exerting force. When he opened them again, he looked at Po Wen and followed her movements to inhale and hold his breath...
Wen Po said loudly: "Yes, yes, just use it so hard, I can see the child's head coming, come again..."
Po Wen's whole body swayed. She stood in front of the bed, opposite Zhou Lijun, and moved her hands widely to teach her to exhale and inhale. She also exhaled and inhaled, and then she took a long breath and held it in, loudly.
Shouting for her to work harder, harder...
Man Bao looked at it blankly. It was not the first time the two of them had cooperated, but she had never paid much attention to Wen Po's movements before.
Man Bao looked at her, then at Zhou Lijun, subconsciously wanting to imitate him, and followed Wen Po by shaking his body up and down, asking Zhou Lijun to hold his breath and then exert force.
Xiao Qian on the side witnessed the audience:...
How could a child who was raised by one hand suddenly become like this?
Po Wen said excitedly: "It's out, it's out..."
She reached forward and held the child's head, guiding her to continue to exert force. After a while, the whole child came out.
She quickly cut off the child's umbilical cord, tied the knot, turned to hand it to Zhou Man, and then went to clean it up for Zhou Lijun.
