Yu Xiangnian started having regular contractions at around seven or eight in the evening, and the pain lasted all night, making her feel like she had no desire to live.

At around six o'clock the next day, when it was dawn, the doctor checked and found that the cervix was only seven centimeters dilated, and there was still some pain!

Only Zhao Ruozhu and Xiaojie were by her side. They had been with her all night and looked exhausted.

The frequency of the contractions had reached once every eight or nine minutes, and she was shaking with pain.

How she wished Cheng Jingmo could be by her side at this moment, to cheer her up, but there was only an old man and a child in front of her, who were trying hard to stay with her.

Yu Xiangnian couldn't bear it any longer and broke down emotionally.

"Mom, it hurts..." She cried bitterly, "I can't hold on any longer..."

Seeing her daughter in so much pain that she would rather die than live, Zhao Ruozhu would rather suffer the pain herself.

"Niannian..." Zhao Ruozhu choked with sobs, "Hold on a little longer, it will be fine soon!"

The pain penetrated her bones, and her anus felt as if it was about to be peeled off from her body, leaving her unable to stand or lie down, nor sit.

"Mom, I can't stand it anymore..." Yu Xiangnian's hair was a mess like a bird's nest, and she was crying with snot and tears.

Zhao Ruozhu held Yu Xiangnian's hand tightly, "Mom knows you're in pain, just hold on to me when you're in pain!"

Xiaojie was secretly wiping away his tears.

"Ah!!!" Yu Xiangnian screamed in pain.

At the same time, Cheng Jingmo and his companions had already entered the dense forest, and he suddenly stopped.

Yu Xiangyang behind him didn't pay attention and bumped into his back.

"What's wrong?" Yu Xiangyang asked in surprise.

"It's nothing, just keep going." Cheng Jingmo said calmly.

He felt very uneasy, as he seemed to have heard Yu Xiangnian's painful cry just now.

He looked up at the sky, sighed secretly, and prayed silently in his heart: May Yu Xiangnian and her daughter be safe!

Xiao Jie poured hot water, wrung out the towel and wiped Yu Xiangnian's face, "Auntie, if you can't bear the pain, just cry for a while."

After Yu Xiangnian vented his anger, his mood gradually recovered.

She opened her mouth slightly and took a deep breath, her eyes staring blankly at the ceiling, waiting for the next contraction.

At around nine o'clock, Yu Xiangguo came to the hospital with the nanny, and also brought some brown sugar, eggs and chicken soup noodles cooked at home.

Yu Xiangnian mechanically swallowed a bowl of noodles, and at around eleven o'clock, he was finally pushed into the delivery room by the doctor.

The following process was even more painful. Yu Xiangnian was already exhausted from the pain and had no strength to give birth to a child.

She gave birth to the child while two doctors pressed on her belly.

Two different cries were heard in succession.

A small and weak voice seemed to be telling Yu Xiangnian that he was born.

A voice was chattering, as if she had suffered a great injustice and was crying to Yu Xiangnian about her grievances.

"It's born! It's born!" Zhao Ruozhu, who was accompanying the birth, shed tears of excitement. "The first one is a boy, the second one is a girl, you have both your sons and daughters!"

The doctor brought the two children to Yu Xiangyang and took a look at them.

Yu Xiangnian only saw four kicking legs, the skin was dark with a hint of dark red.

With just one glance, Yu Xiangnian's taut string broke, and she closed her eyes in exhaustion.

When she woke up again, her lower body was in so much pain that she couldn't move. She opened her eyes and saw two babies sleeping beside her.

Xiao Jie stood by the bed, staring at the two babies without blinking, and didn't even notice that Yu Xiangnian had woken up.

Zhao Ruozhu was the first to notice that Yu Xiangnian had woken up, and she excitedly said, "Niannian, you're awake."

Yu Xiangnian said weakly, "Mom, I want to drink some water."

Xiao Jie was very sensible and quickly poured a cup of hot water from the kettle. Yu Xiangnian endured the pain in his lower body and stood up.

"Aunt, it's a brother and a sister." Xiao Jie's eyes sparkled as he whispered, "They look exactly the same."

Yu Xiangnian smiled weakly, "Now that we have more brothers and sisters in the family, it will be hard for you as the older brother."

The nanny cooked some brown sugar eggs for Yu Xiangnian to nourish his body.

Zhao Ruozhu was talking about the two children. The eldest was born six minutes earlier than the second. The eldest weighed 5.2 jin, while the second weighed less than 5 jin. The two children were a little underweight and needed to get more nutrition.

The eldest has been sleeping since birth, and the second oldest is small but makes loud noises, so they might even howl when they cry!

Yu Xiangnian looked at the two sleeping babies with loving eyes.

At around 12 o'clock on September 7, she gave birth to two children!

She said to Zhao Ruozhu with gratitude, "Mom, thank you for your hard work."

"What are you talking about? As long as you and your son and daughter are safe, it doesn't matter if I'm tired!"

Next, there are new problems.

Yu Xiangnian had no milk, and after the two children woke up, they whined for food.

At first, I fed them with boiled water, and they both ate it with relish. But later, they couldn't eat it anymore. They would hum and make a fuss when they tasted boiled water.

Especially the second child, she cried loudly, wanting to tell everyone that she was hungry and had no milk!

The nanny said, "You have to let the baby suck. The more he sucks, the more milk he gets!"

Yu Xiangnian held the children again and fed them.

The eldest one sucked for more than twenty minutes and fell asleep because he was too tired and didn't get a single sip of milk.

The second child sucked and sucked for a long time but didn't get a single sip of milk, so he cried so sadly.

Yu Xiangnian listened to her sobbing and wanted to laugh, "Can't you learn from your brother and be quiet?"

During the three days in the hospital, I relied entirely on other mothers for support, and my two children drank other people's milk.

We made all kinds of milk-inducing products at home and gave them to Yu Xiangnian. There was some effect, but not much.

Yu Xiangnian went from having no milk to having a little milk, but it was not enough for one child, let alone two.

"Mom, let's give them milk powder." Yu Xiangnian suggested.

Milk powder is a scarce commodity nowadays. To buy it, you not only need a ticket but also a certificate from the hospital.

Zhao Ruozhu asked the hospital to issue a certificate, and the family pooled all the milk coupons at home and went to the department store to buy three bags of milk powder.

After staying in the hospital for three days, Yu Xiangnian was finally discharged.

According to the customs of Nancheng, a married daughter cannot return to her parents' home to recuperate after childbirth, otherwise it will bring bad luck to her parents' family and be very detrimental to them.

Yu Jiashun came to the hospital before Yu Xiangnian was discharged.

After not seeing him for more than a week, Yu Jiashun looked much older, his hair had turned a lot whiter, and he had bigger bags under his eyes.

He looked at the two children, smiled with satisfaction, and stuffed two red envelopes into the children's swaddling clothes.

"Wait until Dad finds a way to exchange some milk tickets for someone."

"Dad, you don't have to worry about these things." Yu Xiangnian said, "You should take care of your health and don't overwork yourself."

Yu Jiashun replied: "I know."

After a pause, he continued, "Cheng Jingmo and the others are safe now."

Hearing this, Yu Xiangnian's tears flowed out.

"Niannian, don't cry!" Zhao Ruozhu kept wiping her tears anxiously. "How can you shed tears while you're in confinement? Do you still want your eyes?"

Yu Xiangnian didn't want to cry, but she couldn't control her tears.

"Niannian, I'm sorry for you. Go home and take good care of yourself. Don't worry about anything." Yu Jiashun stayed in the ward for less than ten minutes and hurried back to the headquarters.
