"Second sister, put it in your mouth." Ruan Huaizhu had already brought her two slices of fine ginseng.

This was prepared by my mother. Indeed, experience makes all the difference at any time.

Ruan Qingling took it and put it in her mouth, saying, "Bring me my thermos and put a few pieces in it. I'll drink some when I'm thirsty."

Ruan Huaizhu nodded and ran off to pour hot water like a little girl.

Ruan Qingling felt waves of pain, a pain even worse than menstrual cramps.

She frowned slightly.

Perhaps this is when a woman is most vulnerable in her life?

She now understands why so many women, after giving birth, no longer want that man.

We enjoyed ourselves together when it was fun.

When I was in pain, I bore it all by myself.

What's the point of having a man if he can't even be there for you?

Thinking of this, her brows furrowed even more deeply.

Ruan Huaizhu had already poured water and brewed ginseng tea, setting it aside.

Seeing the beads of sweat on her second sister's forehead, she also became nervous.

I've already sent a message home.

My parents should be back soon.

She took a towel and wiped Ruan Qingling's sweat: "Second sister, what else can I do?"

Seeing Ruan Qingling hunched over, she was extremely worried.

She had no experience with childbirth and really didn't know where to begin to help.

Ruan Qingling said, "The pain of childbirth is something I have to go through, and you can't help me bear that pain."

When a person is feeling unwell, their complexion changes.

Ruan Qingling's face also paled a little.

Ruan Huaizhu is now really looking forward to killing Song Shiting.

That bastard, come out here now!

As she wiped Ruan Qingling's sweat, she felt sorry for her second sister.

But she dared not mention Song Shiting at this time, for fear of upsetting her second sister.

When Song Ji received the news that his daughter was about to give birth, he dragged Ruan Mushan over.

Fortunately, Ruan Mushan was home that night.

In the dead of night, Song Ji knocked on Ruan Huaixiu's door to wake her up.

Let Ruan Huaixiu watch over Yaya.

The couple rushed to the hospital immediately.

Ruan Qingling asked, "Dad, Mom, what brings you here?"

Song Ji looked anxious and said, "You're about to give birth, how could we not come? Luckily, your dad is home tonight."

Ruan Huaizhu asked, "Mom, has my eldest brother come back?"

Song Ji shook his head: "Not yet."

Ruan Huaizhu was also puzzled; her elder brother's mission this time had taken too long.

My second sister gave birth early, so it seems my eldest brother won't be able to witness the birth of his nephew.

Song Ji was taking care of Ruan Qingling.

"What did the doctor say? Are they going to move me to the delivery room? Why are they making me suffer here too?"

Ruan Qingling's forehead was covered in sweat, and her hair was plastered to her face.

Song Ji said to Ruan Huaizhu, "Go and tell them to come over. It's so late, why hasn't a doctor come yet?"

When Ruan Huaizhu returned from her trip, she said curiously, "Mom, isn't it strange? There are so many women giving birth tonight."

Not tonight either.

She said, "Our ward is a bit special because there are no other people here. All the pregnant women who are about to give birth have recently moved to this hospital."

Song Ji frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Ruan Huaizhu couldn't say anything, but she vaguely sensed a conspiracy.

Based on her police instincts, she felt there was something seriously wrong.

Ruan Qingling had a stomachache, not a headache.

How could she not guess that this was an attempt to trip her up?

She's already made herself look so pathetic.

It seems they've summoned almost every woman in Jingcheng who's about to give birth.

She said to Ruan Huaizhu, "Go and ask if they came here after receiving bribes. It would be best to check at the entrance of the hospital."

Ruan Huaizhu looked at Song Ji.

Ruan Mushan said, "I'll go down with you."

He's an old man here, and he's completely useless.

Song Ji said, "You and your dad go down and take a look. If you have any news, you can run back and tell us first. Let your dad handle the rest."

She began to suspect that her eldest son's recent outings might be part of a conspiracy.

However, she pulled her thoughts back and stopped herself from overthinking.

My biggest hope is that my eldest son can come back, so that there will be one more person to handle the situation.

Ruan Qingling's face contorted in pain.

Giving birth is really painful.

She had always wanted to give birth naturally.

But right now, the pain is so intense it feels like my skull is about to burst.

Unbearable.

Unfortunately, this kind of pain cannot be treated with painkillers.

Half an hour later, the doctor finally arrived.

After examining Ruan Qingling, he said, "Your uterus hasn't opened yet; you'll have to wait a little longer."

Everyone knows that if the uterus is not open, a child cannot be born.

Song Ji asked, "What's going on? Why won't it open?"

The doctor also found it strange and said, "Logically speaking, she has had one child before, and this is her second pregnancy, so it should be faster. But having a child is something that we can't decide for ourselves. It depends on when the baby is ready to come out."

Song Ji's brows were furrowed tightly.

This is watching your daughter suffer without offering any help.

Ruan Qingling was in excruciating pain.

Lying down won't work, and sitting won't work either.

It's not just my stomach that hurts.

She also felt soreness in her feet.

That soreness is a soreness in the muscles and tendons, or a soreness in the nerves.

In short, it's very uncomfortable, but I can't pinpoint exactly where it's located.

My calves felt sore, or maybe my thighs were sore too. In short, the discomfort was indescribable; it made me want to cry.
