Chapter 166
Ye Fuyue knew that many people in the compound had been gossiping about this recently, saying that her family had spent ten eggs to get Zhao Yuan to accompany her, but now they don't want Zhao Yuan to go and want Aunt Xu to go instead. She didn't know why.
Ye Fuyue naturally couldn't tell the truth to Aunt Donghong, so she pushed the responsibility onto Shen Yao.
"It's because Chen Yao thought I was pregnant with two. He was worried that Zhao Yuan would panic when I went into labor, so he wanted to find someone with more experience to accompany me. He also said that he had not considered it carefully before, otherwise he would have come to you, Aunt Donghong, from the beginning."
Aunt Xu was half-believing and half-doubting what Ye Fuyue said. On the one hand, she felt that this was indeed something Chen Yao would do. Chen Yao was always unkind and didn't care much about other people's face. On the other hand, she vaguely felt that the truth of the matter might not be what Ye Fuyue said.
But Ye Fuyue didn't want to say more, so Aunt Xu tactfully didn't ask any more questions.
On this side, since Zhao Yuan no longer needed to go to Ye Fuyue's house, she often went to visit Cui Li.
Although Zhao Yuan and Aunt Liang had a very unhappy quarrel last time because of Liang Tianxiong's incident, Zhao Yuan always focused on the matter rather than the person. She really didn't like Aunt Liang and Liang Tianxiong, but this didn't prevent her from getting close to Cui Li.
Cui Li also asked Zhao Yuan: "Why don't you have to accompany Ye Fuyue?"
Zhao Yuan knitted and snorted coldly, "How should I know? They suddenly told me not to go, saying Aunt Xu is more experienced and they want her to accompany Ye Fuyue. Maybe they think I'm not doing a good enough job."
"You are just accompanying Ye Fuyue so that no one will be at home when she starts the attack. What's the good or bad thing about that?" Cui Li was puzzled.
"How would I know? Anyway, they just disliked me for some unknown reason and wouldn't let me go. Maybe they felt bad about the eggs they gave me. I heard they went to find Aunt Xu, and she confiscated their eggs."
Zhao Yuan paused, then continued, "Even though I wasn't allowed to go, I was still happy to have some free time. Do you really think I went to accompany Ye Fuyue because I wanted those eggs? I just thought that we all lived in the same courtyard, and I was relatively free. Even if I didn't go to accompany Ye Fuyue, I liked to chat with people everywhere. It didn't matter whether I went to accompany Ye Fuyue or not, so I agreed. Who knew that I would be despised."
"The rich in this family are different. They always think they can just take out ten eggs at will, and the people in the compound can pick whatever they want without having to worry about anyone's face."
Cui Li was mending clothes and didn't respond to Zhao Yuan's words. She changed the topic and started chatting with Zhao Yuan.
…
One morning in early March, after Shen Yao and Chen Guifeng had gone to work, Aunt Xu had not come yet, and Ye Fuyue was sitting alone in the yard reading a book.
Suddenly, she felt water flowing from her body as if she had urinary incontinence.
Although Ye Fuyue had never given birth, she had watched related TV dramas and read books, and knew that this was her amniotic fluid breaking and she was about to give birth.
Ye Fuyue didn't dare to move. She could only try to half-recline on the chair and shout at the gate: "Is there anyone there? I'm about to give birth. Is Aunt Donghong here? Is there anyone there? Come and help me. My water broke."
The Shen family's house is very close to the slum, and the Wu family is the closest to the Shen family.
Ye Fuyun was washing clothes in front of the door, and Zhou Jinmei was sitting next to her basking in the sun.
Ye Fuyun heard the voice and looked at Zhou Jinmei: "Is this Ye Fuyue's voice? Is she about to give birth?"
Zhou Jinmei was originally sitting lazily in the chair, but when she heard Ye Fuyun's words, she pricked up her ears and listened.
"It was indeed Ye Fuyue who was shouting. Her water broke and she's about to give birth."
"Didn't Chen Yao ask Aunt Xu to help look after Ye Fuyue? Aunt Xu hasn't come yet?" Ye Fuyun asked.
"She probably hasn't come. I sat in front of the door for so long, and I only saw Shen Yao and Chen Guifeng go out to work, but I didn't see Aunt Xu come over."
Ye Fuyun said "Oh" and slowed down the movement of rubbing clothes: "The amniotic fluid broke. If we don't send it to the hospital in time to give birth to the baby, the baby will die."
"Yes, it's dangerous." Zhou Jinmei said leisurely.
Neither of them offered to help Ye Fuyue, both of them had a leisurely attitude of watching a good show.
If the two babies in Ye Fuyue's belly died because of this, that would be what they would like to see.
Ye Fuyue was always ahead of them and better than them. Even if Ye Fuyue and the two babies in her belly were in danger this time, they would just think it was what they deserved.
At this time, Aunt Xu came over leisurely.
She hadn't heard Ye Fuyue's call yet, and was still greeting Zhou Jinmei: "Jinmei, you're basking in the sun again."
"Yes!" Zhou Jinmei replied in a very good mood: "Donghong, come and sit down, and bask in the sun with me."
Zhou Jinmei said this and pulled Aunt Xu to her home.
Aunt Xu refused to go: "No, I'm going to see Fu Yue."
"What's so good about it? Her husband and mother-in-law just left not long ago. She must be fine." Zhou Jinmei still held Aunt Xu.
Ye Fuyun stood up and said, "Yes, auntie, please come sit down at my house. I'll get you a glass of water."
"No need. I'll go see Fu Yue. If she's okay, I'll come back to see you." Aunt Xu pulled her arm away.
Zhou Jinmei winked at Ye Fuyun, asking him to join her in pulling Aunt Xu.
Ye Fuyun understood, and the two of them grabbed Aunt Xu's arms, one on the left and one on the right. When they were about to drag Aunt Xu into the main room, Aunt Xu suddenly stopped.
"Is it Fu Yue calling?" Aunt Xu asked with her ears pricked up.
"No, I didn't hear anything." Zhou Jinmei lied with her eyes open.
"Aunt, you must have heard it wrong. I was sitting in front of the door washing clothes for so long and didn't hear anything." Ye Fuyun also said.
Aunt Xu always felt uneasy in her heart.
"I'm going to see Fu Yue." She pulled her hand free and ran towards Shen's house. Zhou Jinmei and Ye Fuyun tried to catch her but failed.
The door of the Shen family was ajar.
"Fu Yue, you..." Aunt Xu pushed open the gate and went in. She saw Ye Fu Yue half lying on a chair in the yard. Her body and the ground were wet, her head was covered with sweat, and she was already very weak.
Aunt Xu was so frightened that her face turned pale.
"Fu Yue, hold on for a while. I'll get someone to take you to the hospital." Aunt Xu said quickly and ran out to call for help.
"Someone come—someone come and help—Ye Fuyue is about to give birth—if it's too late, something bad will happen—"
Not long after, Zhong Lan came, Cui Li came, Aunt Wu and Uncle Wu also came.
Zhao Yuan and Duan's mother are at home.
Mother Duan heard Aunt Xu's cry and asked, "Is Ye Fuyue about to give birth?"
"That should be the case." Zhao Yuan said indifferently.
"Let's go and see if there's anything we can help with," said Duan's mother.
"I'm not going, Mom. Caixia still needs someone to look after her." Zhao Yuan said.
