Grandma Xiang was a little flustered at this point, so of course she did whatever they said.

However, she heard what Gu Yunyang and Chen Wuwei said.

She naturally knew how precious ginseng was, given that it was over a hundred years old.

If Gu Yunyang is willing to give it up, then he has done her family a favor.

I fetched some water and gave the pregnant woman some ginseng pills.

Gu Yunyang found several veins and used silver needles to inject the diluted oxytocin into the pregnant woman's body.

It's very slow; you can't inject too much of this stuff in a short time.

After about 15 minutes.

The pregnant woman regained her strength; the ginseng pills were very effective, and even her complexion seemed to have improved a lot, with a rosy glow returning to her face.

Gu Yunyang had finished and took his leave.

"How is it?" Gu Hanping asked anxiously as soon as Gu Yunyang came out.

Gu Yunyang nodded: "It's alright. It seems she has recovered somewhat. There's a high probability she'll be able to give birth safely."

He took advantage of the time to input some more wood-type abilities at close range.

Because she took ginseng pills, the pregnant woman didn't know exactly what was working.

I thought it was the effect of ginseng pills.

"That's good, that's good." Xiang Dechang also breathed a sigh of relief.

Beside him, Xiang Dechang's son slumped down.

He had been holding his breath the whole time, but now that he was finally relieved, he collapsed to the ground.

Gu Yunyang thought for a moment, but it wasn't a good time to speak, so he kept his mouth shut.

Fortunately, after another 15 minutes, with the help of the midwife, the pregnant woman inside finally gave birth to a child.

"Waaah."

Only after hearing the child's cries did the people outside finally feel relieved.

"Congratulations, Uncle Dechang."

Congratulations to you both!

Xiang Dechang was also beaming with joy.

A moment later, the midwife came out and brought out a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes: "Congratulations, it's a boy."

"Okay, okay, I'll burn incense..."

"Cough cough."

Xiang Dechang was so happy to have a grandson that he forgot all about the world.

People in Guangdong Province have a custom that when a son is born, they may have to perform ancestral rites.

But superstition is not allowed at this time.

Fortunately, everyone present was one of their own, so Gu Hanping simply coughed and told Xiang Dechang to stop talking.

Such things can be done secretly, as long as the villagers don't suffer any harm.

Even if they discover it, they won't say much.

Now that this matter was over, Gu Hanping planned to leave.

After saying goodbye, Gu Yunyang said, "Please keep it a secret that I went into the delivery room today."

Although he acted expediently in this emergency, he still managed to save the lives of the mother and child.

But if word gets out, it will damage his reputation.

Most importantly, it damages the reputation of the mother.

Gu Yunyang himself didn't care, but he couldn't ignore the treatment of the mothers.

A ruined reputation can very well drive a woman to her death.

Gu Hanping quickly added, "Yes, please keep this a secret."

Xiang Dechang understood, glanced at his wife, and then Grandma Xiang pulled the midwife aside.

This is to give the other party something to keep them quiet.

Xiang Dechang then looked at Gu Yunyang and thanked him, saying, "Thanks to Secretary Gu, please don't hesitate to ask if there's anything I need in the future. If I, Xiang Dechang, were to back down, I wouldn't be a human being."

"Grandpa Dechang, you flatter me. This is something I, as the brigade secretary, should do. However, there are some things inside that we only know ourselves, and it was all done expediently in an emergency. I'm not the kind of person who acts recklessly, and I didn't look around randomly after I went in. I was just afraid that if this got out, people would spread rumors about it. As long as the people here don't speak up and don't tell anyone, it'll probably be fine."

This request was reasonable, and everyone who came here was a reasonable person, so they all nodded in agreement.
