Chapter 414: Production Crisis, Abnormal Fetal Position

Gu Junze's heart felt like it was being roasted on fire. Every time he heard a slight movement from inside, he became frightened.

Yuling and Haitang were also ordered around by Li Wenpo: "Is the hot water ready? Go and check, and prepare some more! And the clean cloths for wrapping the young master, have they been fumigated?"

The two of them responded and left.

Only midwife Li and Chu Ruohan were left in the delivery room.

Midwife Li leaned over and lowered her voice a bit, "Madam, please bear with it. I see that your fetus is in a slightly abnormal position. I need to correct it, otherwise you will suffer greatly during childbirth."

Chu Ruohan's heart tightened, and she had to nod.

Midwife Li placed her rough hands on Chu Ruohan's bulging belly and began to rub and press it hard.

"Ah--!" Chu Ruohan was caught off guard. She felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, several times more intense than the previous pain. She couldn't help but scream out in pain, and cold sweat instantly soaked her clothes.

Outside the door, Gu Junze heard the shrill cry of pain, and his heart suddenly tightened, and he no longer cared about any rules.

He pushed the door open a crack and asked anxiously, "What's going on in there?!"

Midwife Li quickly stood up, a stiff smile on her face. "It's okay, General, don't worry. Madam's fetal position is a little abnormal. I am adjusting it for you. It will be fine soon."

Just at this moment, Doctor Qian hurried over with a medicine box. When he heard what Li Wenpo said, he paused slightly.

He had examined his wife's pulse before, and her fetal position had always been normal, and her pulse had always been stable. How come it suddenly became abnormal when she was about to give birth?

But he thought again, childbirth for women is inherently dangerous and there are many variables. It is possible that the fetus in the womb was naughty and turned over in the stomach before delivery.

At this moment, Chu's mother and Chu Yueshu also rushed over after hearing the news, both of them with anxious looks on their faces.

"What's wrong? How is Han'er?" Chu's mother asked anxiously as she entered the yard.

Gu Junze pretended to be calm and went to greet her: "Mother-in-law, the midwife is already in there, she said she is adjusting the fetal position."

"Okay, okay, I'll go in and see Han'er." Mother Chu said as she was about to go to the delivery room.

But just as she took a step, midwife Li's panicked scream suddenly rang out from the delivery room: "Oh no! Oh no! Madam is bleeding heavily!"

"What?!" Gu Junze felt his eyes go dark and the blood in his body seemed to freeze instantly.

He no longer cared about anything else, and suddenly opened the door and rushed in! Doctor Qian's face also changed drastically, and he followed closely behind.

The scene before him made Gu Junze feel like he was struck by lightning!

Chu Ruohan had already fainted. Her once rosy cheeks were now pale without a trace of blood, and her lips were bluish purple.

The mattress beneath him was stained red with large amounts of glaring blood, and the red color was still spreading, which was shocking!

Gu Junze felt his feet go soft, his tall body swayed, and he almost fell down.

"Han'er!" Chu's mother let out a shrill cry, threw herself to the bed, and burst into tears.

"Sister!" Chu Yueshu was so scared that her face turned pale and her voice trembled.

Doctor Qian rushed forward, quickly took out a piece of ginseng from the medicine box, pried open Chu Ruohan's teeth and stuffed it in.

Then he placed his finger on her pulse, his expression extremely serious.

"The pulse is weak. Come on, I'll get the hemostatic medicine and acupuncture needles!" As he said that, he turned around and rushed out.

Midwife Li knelt on the ground, shaking like a sieve, and said to Gu Junze in a tearful voice: "General... General... Now... Now we can only save one person... Will you save the older one or the younger one?"

"Protect the emperor!" Gu Junze almost roared without hesitation!

The scarlet eyes stared at Li Wenpo, as if they wanted to eat her alive!

Compared to the child, he hoped that Chu Ruohan would be safe and sound! If anything happened to Han'er, what use would he have to have this child!

At this critical moment, a thin figure suddenly stumbled in from outside the door.

"Let me see...let me see..."

Everyone was stunned. They saw that the woman was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a pale face and thin body. She was Wang Zhaodi, who had been rescued by Doctor Qian before and was later left in Chu Ruohan's house to recuperate.

She rushed straight to the bedside and was about to reach out to check on Chu Ruohan's condition.

Seeing this, midwife Li seemed to have found an outlet for her anger and shouted, "Where did you come from, you little bitch! Get out! My wife's life is at stake, don't make trouble here!"

Wang Zhaodi ignored her and just looked up at Gu Junze.

"General! My mother is the best midwife in the village. I've learned from her since I was a child and have delivered several babies myself! Don't worry, I will definitely be able to save your wife and child!"

Midwife Li scoffed and shrieked, "Nonsense! How can the village midwives in your village be as experienced as those of us who have learned specialties in the city? Besides, that's your mother, not you!"

Wang Zhaodi bit her lip, a hint of stubbornness flashing in her eyes: "General, my life was saved by Doctor Qian. His wife was kind enough to let me recuperate in her house and provided me with food and clothing."

"Madam has done me a great favor. Don't worry, I, Wang Zhaodi, will never harm her!"

Doctor Qian hurried back with a bowl of thick black medicine and a silver needle in his hand.

He first carefully gave Chu Ruohan a small amount of the medicine, and then said in a deep voice: "No matter what, stop the bleeding first!"

Seeing this, Li Wenpo hurriedly said to Gu Junze: "General, you can't let her do whatever she wants! What if..."

"Let her try!" Gu Junze interrupted Li Wenpo.

He has no other choice. One more person may mean a glimmer of hope!

When Wang Zhaodi heard this, a light flashed in her eyes. She said no more, immediately leaned over, nimbly got between Chu Ruohan's legs, and began to check the situation.

Doctor Qian didn't care about anything else. He quickly picked up the silver needle, found the acupuncture point and pierced it, trying to wake Chu Ruohan from her coma.

"Madam, hold on! Madam!" The voices of Wang Zhaodi and Doctor Qian sounded alternately.

After a few injections, Chu Ruohan slowly woke up and let out a faint moan.

Doctor Qian saw this and said to Gu Junze, "General, please go out first."

"You go out first." Gu Junze shook his head, his eyes never leaving Chu Ruohan's pale face, "I'll stay here."

When Li Wenpo heard this, her heart skipped a beat. If Gu Junze stayed here the whole time, wouldn't all the little tricks she had prepared be useless?

She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but under Gu Junze's cold and intimidating gaze, she couldn't utter a word.

Doctor Qian had no choice but to nod and leave the delivery room.

Song Ruyan had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When she saw Doctor Qian come out, she immediately grabbed his arm anxiously: "Doctor Qian, what's wrong? How is Madam?"

Doctor Qian looked at her anxious face and sighed tiredly.

When Song Ruyan saw him like this, her heart sank to the bottom. Her eyes turned red and she was about to rush into the house.

Doctor Qian grabbed her and said, "Don't go! There are already enough people inside, don't go in and cause more trouble!"

"Just wait here with peace of mind. Madam, you will be blessed by heaven. Both mother and child will be safe!"
