As soon as Liu Feng walked out of the door, he heard Mrs. Liu calling him from behind.
"Mom, what's going on?" Liu Feng stopped and said, "If you have anything to do, tell me quickly. I'm still in a hurry to go to the Lu family."
"Are you stupid?"
Mrs. Liu went up and gave her son a slap: "Are you really going to her? Do you know how much it costs to go to the hospital?"
You spent so many colorful gifts to marry her, you gave away so much food when you divorced, and the family supports so many people, how can you still have so much money to support her alone?"
"But what if we don't go to the hospital? She has my child in her belly. Mom, haven't you always wanted a grandson?"
"What if you want a grandchild? Don't those who give birth to boys all give birth in hospitals? Don't so many women give birth at home?
I see, she is just pretentious.
You see, before your mother gave birth to you, she was still working in the fields during the day, but at night she gave birth to you as soon as she wanted to, just like laying an egg, so why is it so strenuous?"
Liu Feng really believed it when he said this.
He didn't know what it was like to give birth to a child, he only knew that every woman gave birth to a child.
Isn’t this what women are born to do? How difficult can it be?
"Let's just ask the midwife and give her ten or twenty yuan. We can save a lot of money here and there. After the baby is born, we can use it to replenish the grandson's health. Why not buy clothes?"
Mrs. Liu said again.
This is also a method.
"But what can Yulan do?" Liu Feng was worried about this.
"Shouldn't she quarrel with me after she gives birth to a child?"
"When she has given birth to a child, will she still be afraid of her?" Mrs. Liu said, "Listen to your mother. You should go far away and leave the family affairs to your mother."
"Um, oh, oh, okay..."
Liu Feng had no idea at first, but he really believed what Mrs. Liu said and left Qin Yunlan who was giving birth at Guimen Pass and walked far away.
Where should I go at this time?
I simply went to the canteen to watch others playing cards.
Qin Yulan's stomach became tighter and tighter, and the pain became more and more intensive.
"Liu Feng, Liu Feng..."
she shouted loudly.
"Liu Feng hasn't come back yet." Mrs. Liu rushed over at this time.
"What are you doing? Why haven't you come back for so long?" Qin Yulan held her belly and gasped.
"Hey, it's night now, it's snowing outside, and it's dark. How could it be so fast? Just wait, wait, Liu Feng will be back soon."
Mrs. Liu pretended to comfort her, and the midwife came here.
"Aunt Liu, let's agree first. Today is the Chinese New Year. According to the rules, you have to give me more money."
As soon as the midwife came in, she shook off the snow on her body, took off her cotton coat, gloves and scarf and started talking to Mrs. Liu about the price.
"Jiajiajia..." Mrs. Liu said impatiently.
"Two more dollars for you."
"Two dollars? Okay, okay..." The midwife knew that this old woman from the Liu family was always stingy and couldn't get anything out of her, so she simply saved her words.
Qin Yulan on the side looked at the two people bargaining with a look on her face:???
"No, who are you?"
"I'm here to deliver your baby!"
"Who asked you to deliver the baby? I'm going right away..."
"Magnolia, magnolia..." Mrs. Liu saw that Qin Yunlan was about to speak, and immediately stepped forward to stop her.
"I invited the midwife," she said.
"That's right, you see Liu Feng hasn't come back yet. I was thinking what if you go into labor soon? Let the midwife deliver the baby to you first, and then we can go to the hospital when Liu Feng comes back.
Don't worry about this midwife. Mom has inquired about it. They are the best midwives from all over the country. There is absolutely no problem.
This is called being prepared, Mom, this is for your own good."
Mrs. Liu didn't know where she had learned an idiom, and she patted Qin Yulan's hand with a look of intimacy.
"you……"
Qin Yunlan originally wanted to say something, but another burst of pain came over her.
"Ah...ah..."
She was in so much pain that she couldn't speak, she just kept screaming.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Liu quickly called to the midwife: "Quick, come and take a look..."
The midwife immediately came forward to check.
"Oh, that's great. You can't afford to be delayed. Come on, get on the bed and lie down. Don't worry, you gave birth to two babies earlier. This one should be quick."
Qin Yulan had no choice but to listen to the midwife and lie on the bed obediently.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Liu quietly retreated and closed the door.
There was a triumphant smile on her lips.
Hey, my little wife, it’s still too young to play tricks with her.
Mrs. Liu closed the door, turned around, and went to kneel in the yard.
"The ancestors of the Liu family bless you. Please bless Qin Yulan that this baby must be a son. It must be a son..."
Mrs. Liu hadn't knelt for long when the midwife hurriedly came out of the room.
"It can't be done, it can't be done." She pulled Mrs. Liu.
"What's wrong?"
"Your wife is carrying an abnormal child."
"What?"
"I just looked and it was the feet that came out first. You should take it to the hospital quickly!"
"Now, why don't we take him to the hospital?"
Mrs. Liu said.
"What should we do? I'm not scaring you. This reverse birth can be dangerous. I just delivered a baby two months ago. After the baby was born, the mother died."
The baby was born?
Mrs. Liu's attention was focused on this sentence.
"Liu Feng..." At this time, Qin Yulan's shrill cry came from inside the room.
"Liu Feng, where did you die?"
"Liu Feng!"
Where is Liu Feng now? Is he still at the canteen?
He stopped at the canteen and bought a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of wine, then sat there and watched people playing cards.
As I looked at it, I couldn’t help but say a few words: “Why are you typing this?”
"I made a mistake. I should have typed this one."
"Oh, did you lose? What did I say?"
The card player was a little annoyed by the talking.
"Why don't you come and fight me twice?"
"Then... how about that?" Liu Feng smiled sheepishly, and then sat down on it.
"I'll shoot two, and I'll let you do it when my wife gives birth to the child."
Someone nearby was shocked when they heard this.
"Liu Feng, is your wife giving birth to a baby?"
"Well, well, ah..." Liu Feng's attention was now on the cards in his hand, and he answered absently.
"If you don't go back and watch your wife give birth to the baby, why are you just leaving it here?"
"My mother asked me to come."
???
The person who asked the question was shocked.
At this point, the midwife and Mrs. Liu tried to talk to each other for a long time but to no avail, so they went back to continue delivering the baby.
There was nothing she could do, life was at stake, and if her family didn't send her to the hospital, she couldn't just leave it alone.
"Eh!"
At this time, Mrs. Liu grabbed the midwife and stuffed five dollars into her hand.
"You think of a way to protect the children first when the situation is really dangerous," Mrs. Liu said.
The midwife took the money and looked at Mrs. Liu in shock.
"Excuse me, I'll boil boiled eggs for you to eat later, and I'll give you a big red envelope later."
"Tsk, got it."
The midwife took the money and responded perfunctorily.
Who are they? They really take my wife’s life as a human life.
Although the midwife said so, Mrs. Liu had no control over what she actually did.
