Li Xiyue lifted the quilt covering Fang Yue'e and took a look. She could already see her dark hair. "Auntie, the baby is about to be born."

"What should I do?" Sun Xia was a little panicked.

Li Xiyue comforted her, "It's okay, we will help with the delivery first. Auntie has also given birth, so she should be more experienced than me."

At the beginning of the apocalypse, she had also delivered babies and had experience, but she couldn't tell anyone about it.

Sun Xia swallowed her saliva. She had given birth before, but she had never delivered a baby. If she had known earlier, she would have asked her mother-in-law to come along, as her mother-in-law had experience in delivering babies.

"Uncle Dashan, please try to make the donkey walk steadily. I'm about to give birth." Li Xiyue said to Xu Dashan again.

Xu Dashan was so nervous that his voice was shaking. "Okay, okay."

Fang Yue'e's contractions were frequent and regular, and she couldn't help but scream when she had a contraction.

Li Xiyue guided her, "Auntie, you can't scream. If you scream, your strength will dissipate. Be patient and gather your strength. Only then can the baby be born safely."

She gave birth to her first child at such an old age, so she must have suffered more than other mothers.

The child is Fang Yue'e's life. When she heard that she was not allowed to give birth to the child, she gritted her teeth and endured the pain.

Sun Xia and Li Xiyue each held one of her hands, and stuffed a handkerchief into her mouth to prevent her from biting her tongue.

Li Xiyue calculated the time, and when the contraction came, she said to Fang Yue'e, "Auntie, push hard, just like when you poop, evenly and slowly."

Fang Yue'e bit her handkerchief, put all her strength into it, and did as she was told.

Uncle Xu Liu and Xu Guoqiang were looking ahead with concern. Seeing that Li Xiyue was so calm and knew so much, they were secretly amazed.

Xu Xiangyang also kept looking at the person in the car. He saw that she looked calm and composed, and did not show any panic from beginning to end. Compared with Sun Xia next to her, she was unspeakably steady.

How can she be so calm and strong at such a young age?

"Okay, don't push, rest." After a wave of contractions ended, Li Xiyue wiped the sweat from Fang Yue'e's forehead, "Take a deep breath and relax."

Seeing that she knew how to deliver a baby, Sun Xia felt relieved. "Li Zhiqing, have you ever delivered a baby before?"

"No, but I watched other people deliver babies." Li Xiyue made up a story.

Sun Xia's face was full of admiration, "You are amazing."

He is indeed a doctor. I learned a lot just by looking at him.

Her belly tightened and the contraction came again. Fang Yue'e instinctively pushed forward.

Li Xiyue encouraged her, "Yes, that's it, very good, keep it up!"

"The baby's head is out, auntie, you are awesome!"

"It's almost time, the baby will be born soon, Auntie, you will be able to see your child soon, just give it a little more effort!"

Li Xiyue's encouragement was like a ray of light shining into Fang Yue'e's heart in the night. Her whole body was filled with strength. She bit the handkerchief tightly, gathered all her strength, and exerted a hard force, and something slipped out of her body.

Li Xiyue deftly caught the falling baby and said excitedly, "It's born, it's born!"

Xu Dashan drove the car while looking back, very excited, "Wife, you have worked hard, thank you, we finally have a child."

Uncle Xu Liu and Xu Guoqiang applauded and even Xu Xiangyang curled his lips.

Fang Yue'e said hurriedly, "Let me see the child."

"Why isn't the child crying?" Sun Xia asked in a low voice.

Li Xiyue didn't hear the child crying. Seeing that the child was soft, she hurried to look at the child's chest, but there was no movement.

Fang Yue'e sat up anxiously, "Let me see the child!"

Li Xiyue said to Sun Xia, "Take good care of Aunt Yue'e." Then she put the child on the quilt and gave first aid.

Hopefully it's not too late.

Xu Dashan, who had just been happy for half a minute, burst into tears. He accepted his fate and advised: "Wife, don't be like this. This is our fate. We hunters have committed too many sins and none of us have a good ending. I am sorry for you..."

His ancestors were hunters, and their population was dwindling. By the time he reached his generation, he was the only one left. He and his wife had been married for over ten years, but they hadn't had a child. Now, after much difficulty, they had one, and now...

He accepted his fate and would never let his wife get pregnant again, even if he had no offspring.

"I want the child, give him back to me!" Fang Yue'e was almost crazy, struggling to get the child back.

Sun Xia held her down firmly and advised, "Don't worry. Li Zhiqing is trying to save her. Don't disturb her. Yue'e, you just gave birth. Don't get too emotional. You have to take care of yourself."

Fang Yue'e couldn't care less about these things now. She only wanted the child. "That's my child. Why did you take it away from me? Give it back to me, please."

"Wife, don't do this, don't do this!" Xu Dashan stopped the car and persuaded his wife.

"Girl, do you need help?" Uncle Xu jumped out of the car and asked.

Li Xiyue pressed the child's chest and said, "Help calm Aunt Yue'e down."

She had just given birth, and being so excited would cause heavy bleeding. If the child was saved but something happened to her, wouldn't that still be a tragedy?

Uncle Xu took out a silver needle and inserted it into the Yun point on Fang Yue'e's neck.

Fang Yue'e screamed and collapsed.

Li Xiyue shouted to Xu Dashan: "Hurry up!"

If she couldn't save the child, at least there were emergency equipment at the health center, and she couldn't waste even a minute.

Xu Dashan quickly got into the car and continued driving.

Everyone stared at Li Xiyue, watching her pressing the baby's chest, blowing air into the baby's mouth, and sucking the amniotic fluid from the baby's mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

Except for Xu Xiangyang and Uncle Xu Liu, who knew that she was performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, no one else had ever seen such a method. They were worried for a moment and prayed for a miracle.

A few minutes later, the child's heartbeat finally recovered. Li Xiyue stopped and saw that the child was not crying. She flicked the soles of the child's feet with her fingers and said, "Baby, cry, cry quickly."

After playing it for more than ten times, the child finally cried out.

When Xu Dashan heard the child crying, he stopped the car and couldn't hold back his tears any longer.

Uncle Xu Liu and Xu Guoqiang also wiped away their tears. Xu Xiangyang took a deep breath and clenched the whip in his hand.

Sun Xia cried and laughed, feeling like a lunatic. She took out the swaddle she had prepared and wrapped the child in it.

They had already arrived at the health center. Xu Guoqiang jumped down and called for help. Not long after, several people came out, carrying a stretcher and took the mother and child away.

Xu Guoqiang and others all followed.

Li Xiyue got out of the car, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.

"Are you okay?" Xu Xiangyang walked over with a rare look of concern on his face.

Li Xiyue raised her bloody hands, wiped the sweat off her face with the back of her hands, and shook her head. "It's okay, I'm just a little tired."

Although she was tired, there was light in her eyes and she was very happy to have saved a life.

Xu Xiangyang saw that her eyes were bright, as dazzling as the stars in the night sky. A warm current surged in his heart. He stretched out his hand to her, "Get up, I'll help you sit over there for a while."

Li Xiyue looked at her hands, refused, supported herself on the ground with one hand, struggled to get up, and went to find water to wash her hands.

Xu Xiangyang watched her departing figure, so thin yet full of strength, and the high walls in his heart seemed to collapse bit by bit...
