Chapter 39 Production

Jianjun usually shuttles between work and home, and when he gets home, he spends time on prenatal education for his child. Time has flown by, and summer is here.

Jianjun said to Tingting, "It'll be safer if we go to the hospital to give birth."

Place 20 eggs and a pheasant in a visible place.

Today, Tingting didn't go up the mountain because she was criticized. Instead, she took a walk in the yard as usual. Walking more is good for the baby's delivery.

When Jianjun returned at noon, he saw Tingting in the yard, pregnant with their child, and felt a deep sense of happiness.

Before they could even go inside, they saw Tingting crouching down in pain; her water had broken. Jianjun was so frightened that he ran frantically into the yard.

"Honey, my water broke, it hurts so much. You should go back to bed and lie down, I'll go get someone for you."

"Father and Mother," Jianjun said, still catching his breath.

"Jianjun, what brings you here?" Old Man Guo asked.

"Tingting is about to give birth."

"This is so sudden, it's much earlier than expected. Hurry up and take the scissors and basin to Lao San's house."

Because they had just separated from their family and were worried that the children wouldn't be fully prepared, the old lady prepared everything, and Jianjun went to the house first to keep Tingting company.

Tingting took out a piece of chocolate from her spatial storage and drank a lot of brown sugar water to replenish her energy.

"It hurts so much, Jianjun," Tingting cried.

"Don't be afraid, baby, I'm here with you."

"Ah, I think I'm going into labor!" A scream rang out, and soon the baby was born. Jianjun was a little flustered when he saw this.

When Grandma Guo arrived and saw that the baby had already been born, she quickly cut the umbilical cord, patted the baby's bottom, and made the baby cry loudly.

"She cried, it's good that she cried," the old lady exclaimed happily.

The child's complexion also changed from gray to red, a sign that he could breathe normally again.

After washing the child with warm water, Jianjun started boiling eggs. After all, with so many people here, he couldn't just conjure up a hot egg.

Using a thin gray quilt, they wrapped the child up, and Tingting also changed her clothes and lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed).

Looking at the child's soft face, Jianjun's heart softened. He had been so busy that he hadn't even held a child yet.

After finishing the chicken soup, Tingting lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) and said to Grandma Guo, "Thank you, Mom. This rascal suddenly went into labor. We were terrified because it was the first time we'd ever encountered something like this."

“I delivered all five of your sisters-in-law’s babies.”

"We've been exchanging 30 eggs with each household during this time, and we'll bring them to you in a bit."

"Mom, we have enough to eat, don't worry."

The two sisters-in-law also said to Tingting, "Congratulations, Tingting! This child is so lucky to look so fair and chubby."

Grandma Guo said, "Your eggs aren't enough for postpartum recovery. You need to supplement your nutrition."

According to the two daughters-in-law, the child is chubby and healthy, much stronger than many newborns in the village. He looks like an easy baby to raise.

Jianjun, stop what you're doing and come hug your child. Jianjun looked at the child and didn't know what to do with his hands and feet.

This is the first child in their two lifetimes, and tears welled up in their eyes.

Seeing Jianjun like this, the two sisters-in-law felt uneasy. Their own husbands didn't cry when they gave birth either. This third sister-in-law is really lucky.

After holding the baby, Jianjun asked Tingting, "Does it still hurt?"

"It's alright, it doesn't hurt much anymore," Tingting replied weakly.

Tingting looked at the child's face, a smile never leaving her lips.

Although they are 20 and 23 years old in this era, they were both over 30 in the past, which made them even more excited and happy about the arrival of their child.

After everyone left, Tingting took out a lot of things from her spatial storage. She had put too much salt in the original dish, so she had to take out the ingredients and stew it again.

The smiles never left their faces.
