Chapter 508 The Midwife



Mrs. Zhang and the personal nanny looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

The nanny spoke carefully, "My Lord! A pregnant woman should eat more! Why are you asking our wife to eat less? If she doesn't eat, the baby in her belly will be hungry."

"Not really." Tian An shook his finger and explained to them carefully: "Everything has to be done in moderation. More is not always better.

If your wife eats a lot during pregnancy, the fetus will not starve, but if it grows too big, your wife will suffer during delivery.

You've probably heard of women who had delayed delivery because their babies were too big, and ended up having babies die in their wombs, or women who had dystocia and suffered hemorrhages.

When the two heard this, their faces turned pale. No wonder the doctor who had been invited to see the patient frowned and said that her belly looked a lot bigger than that of women of the same pregnancy.

Therefore, there were even rumors in the mansion that the baby in her belly was not the master's child at all, but no one expected the reason to be here.

If this continues, the consequences will be disastrous! Not only will she be criticized, but she might even lose her life.

Mrs. Zhang fearfully grabbed Tian An's hand, which was casually placed on the table, and said, "My dear, please save us, mother and son!"

Tian An quickly stood up and comforted her, "Don't get excited! You still have a month to adjust! Just do as I say.

For the remaining month, please come and check every seven days and we will decide based on the situation.

If you still can't control it in the end, then choose a caesarean section! You can't hurt you and the baby in any way."

Mrs. Zhang listened to Tian An's orderly arrangements and gradually relaxed.

Finally, the two of them asked the maid for pen and paper and carefully wrote down all the things that Tian An said could no longer be eaten, should be eaten less, as well as the things that could be eaten and how much they could be eaten.

Tian An also told her not to stay in the room all the time to "nourish the pregnancy" but to go out more often and take a walk. Then he let Xiang Tao take her to eat the breakfast prepared for them in the mansion.

Based on her situation, we also temporarily notified the kitchen to adjust the breakfast items and quantity, and started helping her to adjust her food intake by avoiding certain foods.

Mrs. Zhang and her personal nanny thanked Tian An profusely before following Xiangtao out of the pharmacy.

Not long after they left, Lixiang also came over with another Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang's physical condition is generally good, the fetus's growth is within the normal range, and the due date is twenty days later.

Tian An still asked her to walk more often so that it would be easier for her to give birth later.

Mrs. Wang was expecting her second child, so she had some experience and was very careful throughout the pregnancy, which is why she took such good care of herself and the fetus.

But because she had suffered a lot during her first pregnancy, it left a scar on her heart. The later the pregnancy went, the more anxious and afraid she became. That's why she came to Tian An eagerly after hearing that he could help people with painless childbirth.

After Tian An agreed to help her deliver the baby, her anxiety finally subsided a lot without her realizing it, and her frown finally relaxed.

In the following period, Tian An would arrange for two pregnant women to come for physical examinations every day. If a lady who had been examined before was due to give birth, he would suspend the examination one or two days before and after the due date, and resume the examination only after delivering the baby for the lady who was about to give birth.

Having tasted the sweetness of painless childbirth, the wives whose babies were delivered by Tian An often praised her in front of their relatives and friends.

Everyone spread the word, and in the end everyone knew that in addition to being able to give people painless childbirth, Tian An was also an expert in treating difficult labors. As long as she was there, difficult labors were not a problem at all.

Thanks to everyone's help, it wasn't long before Tian An was awarded the title of "Midwife of Miraculous Hands", and more people came to see her.

Tian An started out by giving physical examinations to two ladies a day, and now he is arranging physical examinations for four ladies a day.

In less than ten days, it was almost impossible to arrange for six people every day.

In addition to the new wives, there are many people coming for follow-up visits every day, and Tian An is very busy.

He didn't even have time to eat lunch at noon, and he had lost a lot of weight. Nanny Xiao saw it and felt sad.

Every day he would go to the kitchen and watch the cooks prepare nourishing food for Tian An. He would even wash his hands and stew bird's nest, boil donkey-hide gelatin and other supplements for Tian An.

Fortunately, hard work always pays off.

Tian An treated these ladies and delivered babies. Although they never asked for consultation fees, they were generous in paying Tian An.

In addition to silver, he also gave away various high-quality bird's nests, ginseng, deer antlers and other supplements, precious fabrics with beautiful patterns, as well as jade, gems, pearls and jadeite of excellent quality. He was generous and not stingy at all.

Tian An was busy seeing patients all day and didn't realize that this was the second time Nanny Xiao had ordered people to clean up the new warehouse.

When Tian An finally had some free time, she heard Nanny Xiao mention the warehouse. She walked in and was shocked.

She looked at Madam Xiao in disbelief and asked, "Is this really our storehouse?"

Madam Xiao said cheerfully, "How could it be fake? It's absolutely genuine!"

Nanny Xiao pointed at the things and introduced them to Tian An, telling him which ones were sent from which families. She also teased Tian An with a smile, "If you keep doing this, when the young lady gets married in the future, you will definitely be able to save up a large dowry for yourself!"

Tian An's face flushed, and her voice subconsciously became coquettish, "Mammy, I just came of age last year, I'm still young!"

"Yes! You reached the age of 15 last year, and you are already sixteen this year. How can you still be young?" Nanny Xiao counted on her fingers and scolded Tian An, wanting her to pay more attention to her marriage and prepare for it earlier.

"My son-in-law will soon take the Imperial Examination, and after that the Palace Examination. Once he passes the Palace Examination, he can wait for an official appointment. Now that he has established himself, all that remains is to start a family."

After hearing what Madam Xiao said, it seemed to be true, but Tian An had his own plans and didn't want to get married so soon.

Not wanting Madam Xiao to keep nagging, she quickly found another topic to evade the topic.

Nanny Xiao thought she was just embarrassed and changed the subject to other things.

It was still about marriage, but the topic changed to Chun Xi and Deng Xue.

"The two girls are old now, and it's time to consider their lifelong affairs. I wonder if the young lady has any plans in mind."

"Arrangements?" Tian An was stunned. She had no plans in mind. If Madam Xiao hadn't mentioned it today, she wouldn't have thought of it at all. "I don't know what they like?"

Seeing Tian An's confused look, Nanny Xiao knew that she had never thought of this at all.

He turned around and whispered in Tian An's ear: "This old slave actually feels that Chen Feng treats Chun Xi very well. I think there is some interest in them."

"Huh?" Tian An said in disbelief, "How did Ma know? How come I don't know?"
