29-year-old Bai Xiaoyue unexpectedly became 19-year-old Bai Xiaoyue. Not only was she arranged to be a widow and given a child, but she was also transmigrated to 1958. Isn't that a bit too much...
The senior doctor and the attending physician went to the ward together to examine Bai Xiaoyue.
Then he said to Bai Xiaoyue:
"Most women experience contractions first, but some women have their water break first. Let's go to the delivery room!"
Bai Xiaoyue, supporting her belly as if nothing was wrong, calmly walked into the delivery room.
Before going inside, she hugged Yan Ci and comforted him, saying:
"Aci, don't worry, I'll be out in a bit!"
Yan Ci clenched his fists tightly and nodded to his wife: "Okay, I'll wait for you."
As soon as Bai Xiaoyue entered the delivery room, her parents arrived.
When they arrived at the ward, Li Mingyue told them that their daughter had gone into the delivery room, so the elderly couple rushed over again.
When Bai's mother saw Yan Ci, she asked anxiously:
"Xiao Ci, how long has Xiao Yue been inside?"
Yan Ci felt a little more at ease when he saw the elderly couple arrive.
"Father, Mother, you've arrived. Xiaoyue just went inside."
Mrs. Bai breathed a sigh of relief and said with great experience:
"Just went in? It's still early, it'll be at least a few hours."
The two elders sat on chairs outside the delivery room, patiently waiting for their daughter.
Yan Ci stood at the door of the delivery room the whole time.
As soon as Bai Xiaoyue entered, she started experiencing contractions in her stomach. Her abdomen was cramping and painful, and her lower back was also extremely swollen and painful.
She knew Yan Ci was terrified and didn't want him to worry.
Even when they were sweating profusely and trembling all over from the pain, they were unwilling to utter a sound.
When the pain became unbearable, she would bite her scarf to distract herself.
She kept thinking about all the little moments she had spent with Yan Ci, and their child was about to be born.
Her heartache for Yan Ci and her expectations for her child enabled her to fight against the pain in her body.
The doctor had never seen a woman give birth like this before and was very impressed.
The old doctor instructed her:
"Bai Xiaoyue, your baby is in the correct position. Adjust your breathing and conserve your energy."
It wasn't until the old doctor called out to her, "We can see the baby's head, push!"
Bai Xiaoyue finally mustered all her strength and screamed, "Ah..."
Then came a baby's cry, piercing the sky and resounding through the clouds.
The old doctor said with a smile:
"This kid's voice is really loud, even louder than your mother's."
She wrapped the baby up and said to Bai Xiaoyue:
"Bai Xiaoyue, come and see your child. It's a son, weighing six pounds and two ounces."
Yan Ci and Bai's parents had been waiting outside.
He kept pressing his ear against the delivery room door to listen, but he couldn't hear Bai Xiaoyue's voice, so he thought it would take a long time.
Yan Ci was startled when he suddenly heard his wife scream, and he stood there stunned for a moment.
Before he could react, the sound of a baby crying followed. Yan Ci felt a sense of relief, but also a slight weakness throughout his body.
Upon hearing their child's voice, Mr. and Mrs. Bai excitedly stood up and went to the door to wait.
The nurse came out carrying the baby a moment later.
"Which one is Bai Xiaoyue's family? She gave birth to a son."
The mother happily took the child and held him in her arms, her face beaming with joy.
Yan Ci hurriedly asked, "Where is my wife?"
Nurse: "She'll have to wait a while before she comes out."
Mr. Bai smiled broadly and said repeatedly, "Good, good."
Yan Ci carefully tied the small strip of cloth given to him by his wife onto the child.
A moment later, when the door opened, the nurse called out:
"Bai Xiaoyue's family came to help her back to her room."
Yan Ci quickly went inside, picked up Bai Xiaoyue, and went back to the room.
The nurse, standing behind, covered her mouth and stifled a laugh.
"Wow, this person is really amazing!"
Bai Xiaoyue wrapped her arms around Yan Ci's neck, eager to claim credit:
"Aci, aren't I amazing? I came out in just a short while."
Yan Ci looked at his wife's sweat-dampened hair and chapped lips, feeling utterly exhausted.
His eyes were red-rimmed, he nodded, and choked out:
"Yes, my wife is the most amazing person in the world!"
Back in the room, Yan Ci put Bai Xiaoyue on the bed and then went to the cafeteria to get some brown sugar and eggs.
Although Bai Xiaoyue felt that her stomach was empty and she could eat a whole cow, she still couldn't bring herself to eat a full bowl of poached eggs!
Yan Ci took a bowl and divided it in half, and Bai Xiaoyue ate the rest, including six poached eggs. She even drank the brown sugar water.
She asked, "In this era, there is no milk powder. Children can only drink breast milk. If the mother doesn't have milk, they can only eat rice cereal."
I only have this one child in two lifetimes, and I can't bear to let him eat rice cereal. I want him to eat as much as possible so that I can have milk sooner.
The child fell asleep, and Bai Xiaoyue was also tired after eating. She asked Yan Ci and Bai's mother to watch over the child, and then closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Li Mingyue didn't dare to disturb her, so she asked Wang Weiguo to watch over her daughter and went to sleep herself.
Bai Xiaoyue slept straight through until dark before waking up, while Li Mingyue was having dinner.
Seeing that she was awake, Yan Ci brought her chicken soup.
While eating, Bai Xiaoyue asked Yan Ci:
"Have Father and Mother gone back?"
Yan Ci nodded: "Yes, I sent my parents back. I can manage on my own."
Li Mingyue said from the side:
"It's alright, look, my Weiguo is still a person."
After Bai Xiaoyue and Yan Ci finished their meal, Yan Ci went to clean up.
Only then did she have time to properly look at the child she had carried for ten months and given birth to.
The child's face was flushed, and it was impossible to tell who the child resembled. Just then, the child opened his eyes.
Black Grape's big, clear, and bright eyes, and its little mouth that kept moving, melted Bai Xiaoyue's heart.
She carefully examined the child's body, fingers, and toes, and finally felt relieved to find that the child was perfectly fine.
Just then, the child started crying loudly. Yan Ci happened to return, opened the swaddle blanket to check, and found that it wasn't wet.
Li Mingyue said with great experience:
"Xiaoyue, the baby might be hungry. It's been several hours and he hasn't had any milk. Why don't you try feeding him?"
Yan Ci placed the child in Bai Xiaoyue's arms and drew the curtain.
The old doctor happened to come to check on her and saw that Bai Xiaoyue was flustered and didn't know how to breastfeed, so he adjusted the baby's position for her and gave her some postpartum advice.
After much effort, the baby finally got his first taste of milk.
Watching this child, with whom she shared blood, sucking with relish, Bai Xiaoyue found the feeling incredibly magical.
It was a feeling that couldn't be described in words; I wanted to give him all the beautiful things in the world.
In this world, I have gained another burden!
After the child had finished eating, Bai Xiaoyue wanted to play with him, but then remembered that the child didn't have a name yet, so she asked Yan Ci:
"Aci, have you named the baby yet?"
Yan Ci took the child and put him down before saying to his wife:
"Let's call him Xiaobai for now!"
Bai Xiaoyue knelt down beside the child and gently tugged at his little hand:
"Little White, you have a name now!"
Li Mingyue leaned over and called out:
"Little White, Little White, not bad, not bad, simple and pleasant to listen to."
Bai Xiaoyue asked her, "Have you named your daughter yet?"
Li Mingyue: "My son is named Ping'er and my daughter is named An'an. I just hope that my two children will live a peaceful and safe life."
"Peace and safety, that's a good meaning."
“That’s right, Xiaoyue, our children really were born on the same day. My An’an is the older sister, and your Xiaobai is the younger brother.” Li Mingyue’s voice was filled with excitement.
"Yes, yes, yes, my Xiaobai is a younger brother, please take good care of him in the future, Sister An'an," Bai Xiaoyue teased.
