When they checked again the following evening, they found that it was indeed the case.
“In that case, when there are only two days left in the countdown, you should check into the hospital in advance. I think it’s safer to check in two days earlier, to give us a chance to do it earlier,” Qiao Xinruo said.
“That’s what I think too,” Su Yueya said, adding that there was no need to wait until the last day to go to the hospital.
If you go a day in advance, you can prepare everything you need to prepare.
"By the way, sis, are you going to give birth at the military hospital?" Qiao Xinruo asked.
It's not anything else, it's just that the two sisters did have some unpleasant experiences at the military hospital, and Qiao Xinruo didn't want her sister to have to suffer again during childbirth or postpartum confinement.
“I’ll definitely go there, don’t worry. Actually, going to the military hospital is fine too. I’m familiar with the doctors and nurses there, so it’ll be much easier to communicate,” Su Yueya said. “Besides, it’s close to home, so it’ll be easier for you to come see me, and for my parents-in-law to come too.”
Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui will definitely come to see Su Yueya and the child.
"OK."
Another half month has passed, and there are only two days left until delivery.
Accompanied by her family, Su Yueya checked into the obstetrics department of the military hospital with the prepared delivery kit.
Besides the obstetricians and nurses who cared about her, doctors from other departments who knew her also came to visit her, making her time in the hospital anything but boring, as there was always someone to chat with her.
"I feel like you haven't been out of the hospital for long, how come you're about to give birth so soon!"
“It’s been quite a while…” Su Yueya said.
Others might not realize it, but she knew in her heart that a lot had happened in between.
But there's no need to take the polite small talk between former colleagues too seriously.
Besides these former colleagues who care about Su Yueya, the alliance that hates the Qiao sisters is certainly not going to be left behind.
They certainly wouldn't dare to provoke Su Yueya now, after all, she's pregnant and there to give birth, while they are hospital staff, and a conflict is absolutely out of the question.
But gossip behind their backs is inevitable.
"I heard before that her husband died, and I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't see her husband today, so I know it's probably true! What's so great about giving birth to twins? She's still a widow!"
Because she had prenatal checkups at a military hospital, Su Yueya's pregnancy with twins was not a secret.
With the implementation of the family planning policy, people like them with secure jobs are absolutely not allowed to have more children than allowed. Not only will they be fined for having more children than allowed, but they may also lose their jobs.
But twins are different; twins won't be fined or lose their jobs.
Therefore, everyone envies those who can have twins.
After all, in this day and age, everyone believes that having many children is a blessing, and even poor families with little money will have as many children as possible.
Unfortunately, policy does not allow it.
"Is she crazy? If the man is dead, what's the point of having this child? Doesn't she plan to remarry?"
"Who knows? But their family is well-off, they don't care about raising two children..."
"But it's not easy for her to remarry! Who wants to marry a divorced woman with two children in tow?"
"You guys just don't understand! She's very shrewd. With the title of a martyr's widow, would she dare not abandon the children? Would her deceased husband's family and the army let her off the hook? She's a military doctor now, a soldier. In my opinion, she's just pretending to love these two children. Who knows how much she hates them in her heart!"
"I think that's true too..."
Knowing that the baby wouldn't be born until the next day, everyone in the family went home to rest on the first night, at Su Yueya's insistence.
"Don't worry, I can find a nurse if anything happens. Besides, we're so close by, so if I give birth early, I can contact you. You guys go back and rest first, and then you'll have to be on your best to take care of me," Su Yueya said.
When the family heard this, they realized it made sense and stopped insisting.
The next day, as soon as Su Yueya went into labor, the delivery room was ready and waiting.
Sure enough… Su Yueya thought amidst the pain of contractions, the time exactly matching the time displayed on the instrument.
"Please help me notify my family," Su Yueya said before being wheeled in.
Because they knew the time in advance, the family members had all arranged their work and rushed to the hospital as soon as they received the notification.
"Eldest sister, you should tell Yueya's in-laws right away. They definitely want to see her like this too," Liu Yuying said.
“Okay, you guys go first, I’ll go pick up the two elders,” Qiao Shouyan said. Anyway, they’re all in the same compound, it won’t take much time.
"What? Yueya is about to give birth!" Upon hearing this, Bai Xiuhui immediately dropped what she was doing, not even having time to change her clothes, and rushed to the hospital with Qiao Shouyan. "Old Lu is still in the army, let's give him a call!"
Soon, both families arrived at the hospital and stood guard outside the delivery room.
"Old Lu!" Bai Xiuhui held Lu Anguo's hand, she was very nervous, her heart was pounding, and she wished she could be in the delivery room watching.
"It's alright, Crescent Moon will definitely be fine. Don't worry, we'll be able to see our grandson and granddaughter soon!" Lu Anguo said, trying to reassure his wife.
"Uncle and Aunt, my sister is in good health. She's a doctor herself, and there's me and Dad at home. Don't worry, everything will be fine," Qiao Xinruo said, comforting Bai Xiuhui with great understanding.
"Oh, good child! Auntie believes you," Bai Xiuhui said, but her heart was still pounding, and her eyes were fixed on the door of the delivery room, unable to look away.
In theory, everyone knows that Su Yueya is a doctor herself, and there are two other doctors in her family, so there shouldn't be any trouble. But people are not only rational, but also emotional.
At such a moment, no one can be without worry, not even Qiao Xinruo and Qiao Hanxue.
Both of them unconsciously stared at the entrance to the delivery room.
Meanwhile, inside the delivery room, Su Yueya was working hard.
"Come on, Crescent Moon, you know what's going on, right? Follow my rhythm and put in your best effort! Come on, one! Two!"
Su Yueya clenched her fists, adjusted her breathing, and tried her best to exert force in rhythm.
Perhaps because she hadn't been lazy and had been getting the necessary exercise, and with the nourishment of the spiritual spring, Su Yueya was in really good condition, at least much better than most postpartum women.
"One...two..." Su Yueya repeated after herself.
The entire birthing process went smoothly. When she pushed, a clear cry rang out in the delivery room.
"Oh my, it's born! It's a boy! Crescent moon, the first one is a boy!"
Su Yueya wasn't surprised, after all, she had already seen that the first child was a son, but she hadn't seen the gender of the second child yet. She had a preference and hoped it would be a daughter!
