Li Heng was also stunned by this scene. It was the first time he experienced such a situation, so much so that Li Xuejiao had to shout several times before he reacted.
"I'll go right now...I'll go find our mom right now." Li Heng ran out.
Li Xuejiao held her stomach, unable to sit or stand, so she half-leaned on the edge of the kang, anxiously waiting for someone to come and help her.
Li Heng rushed out of his room and ran straight into Old Lady Xu's room, shouting in a trembling voice: "It's time to give birth, Mom, Xuejiao is going to give birth."
When Old Mrs. Xu heard that her daughter-in-law was about to give birth, she was not in a hurry at all.
She herself gave birth to ten children without any danger. The eldest and third daughter-in-law also gave birth smoothly, so there is no need to worry.
"Just give birth, why are you in such a hurry? Look at you, your voice has changed. The first birth usually takes a long time, you don't have to be in a hurry, just let her lie down and wait quietly."
"Go see her, go see her." Li Heng had no experience at all. The old lady talked for a long time, but he didn't hear a word. The only thing in his mind was to pull the old lady away and talk again.
Old Mrs. Xu had no choice but to follow her son to see Li Xuejiao. When she saw the puddle of water on the ground, her face changed.
Li Xuejiao obviously saw it too. She panicked and asked the old lady anxiously, "Mom, what should I do? I'm about to give birth. Hurry, take me to the hospital."
"Don't worry, lie down first. You must lie down! Lao Si, go boil some water and use some wine to disinfect the scissors. I'll help your wife deliver the baby!"
When Li Xuejiao heard that Old Lady Xu was going to deliver her baby, her face turned pale.
She didn't want Old Lady Xu to deliver the baby. There were deaths during every birth in this village, and it was not like she couldn't afford to go to the hospital.
"I want to go to the hospital, take me to the hospital!"
"Why are you so squeamish? You can just give birth at home, why go to the hospital? Why are you so squeamish? How many of the people in our village gave birth in hospitals? I have given birth to ten children, and I also delivered your eldest sister-in-law and your third sister-in-law's children. Why are you so scared? Lie down and don't move!"
Old Mrs. Xu disliked her daughter-in-law for being too pampered, so she reprimanded her severely and then urged the fourth son to prepare the things for delivery.
Li Heng comforted Li Xuejiao with a few random words and then hurried to the kitchen to boil some water.
Li Xuejiao didn't feel anything at the moment, purely because her water broke first and she was scared. There was no sign of contraction at all.
For some reason, she was just worried that something might happen to her, so she kept wailing, trying to get Li Heng's attention.
Li Heng was boiling water in the kitchen when he heard his wife screaming non-stop. He got so anxious that he couldn't continue boiling the water. He had to drop his work and go see Li Xuejiao.
"Do you have a stomachache? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"It doesn't hurt, I'm just scared. Can you take me to the hospital? I don't trust your mother!" Li Xuejiao covered her twitching eyelids. "My right eyelid is twitching badly. This is not a good sign. Li Heng, listen to me and take me to the hospital. If anything happens to the child, I will never forgive you!"
After hearing what she said so terribly, Li Heng went to find Old Lady Xu.
When Mrs. Xu heard that her stomach didn't hurt, she calmed down and said, "Don't be afraid, just lie down. I'll make some castor oil and scrambled eggs to induce labor. She'll be able to give birth in a few hours! Going to the hospital is so expensive. We don't have money at home. Why should we waste that money?"
Li Heng said he was not convinced by his mother, so he went to persuade his wife: "It's okay, it's really okay. Look, the eldest sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law were both delivered by mom, don't be afraid."
As they were talking, Liang Lanlan came in.
She heard the noise and came to see Li Xuejiao. When she heard that her stomach didn't hurt, she comforted her: "Don't worry, don't scare yourself. When I gave birth to Pan Di, I was just as scared as you, but didn't I give birth to him in the end?"
Li Xuejiao believed Liang Lanlan, and after hearing her say that it was not a big problem, she felt a little more at ease.
backyard.
Ning Jia and An Ye also heard the noise in the front yard, but they were cleaning the kitchen and did not go forward.
The original text said that Li Xuejiao gave birth to a daughter normally, so no one had to worry about anything.
Li Tao walked around the front yard to take a look at the situation, then went to the backyard to help her two sisters-in-law clean up the kitchen, and mentioned the situation in the front yard.
"Fourth sister-in-law is about to give birth. She is so scared that her face is pale. Third sister-in-law is comforting her."
Ning Jia remembered that the book said that she was born after the birth of the baby, so how come she was born before the birth of the baby?
This seems a bit early.
"It's been so short and you're already bleeding?" An Ye asked.
When her sister-in-law gave birth, her brother happened to be on a business trip, so she and Ning Jia accompanied her sister-in-law to the hospital first, and were with her throughout the birth.
After the child was born, the elder brother rushed over from another place and dared to announce the good news to the parents and relatives on both sides.
"Seeing blood?" Although Li Tao was not married, she was familiar with the birthing situations of her sisters-in-law, so it was not difficult for her to understand the meaning of these two words. "No, it's strange to say that the fourth sister-in-law didn't see blood first, but her water broke first."
Ning Jia and An Ye were stunned.
"Jia Jia, do you still remember what my sister-in-law was like back then?"
"Remember, my sister-in-law's water broke first. We went to the hospital without delay. The doctor said that this situation is still quite dangerous. If we come too late and the amniotic fluid is gone, the baby will be deprived of oxygen in the uterus, and in serious cases, the baby will die in the womb."
"Oh my god!" the two people blurted out at the same time.
Li Xuejiao encountered this situation.
"Oh, then we have to go and remind Fourth Sister-in-law quickly. Mom is preparing fried eggs with sesame oil to induce her labor!" Li Tao panicked when she heard this.
"This old lady Xu is so bold!"
"Who said it wasn't? Let's go take a look!"
Although the two best friends are not the kind of people who like to meddle in other people's affairs, this matter may involve two lives. It would be extremely immoral to sit back and do nothing at this time!
How could people like them, with such positive values, ignore it?
The two of them put down their work in the kitchen and went to the front yard. Perhaps they both looked a little nervous, which attracted the attention of the two brothers who were sawing the sycamore tree in the yard.
Li Yao: "What's wrong?"
Li Xu: "Where are you going?"
Ning Jia: "Fourth sister-in-law is about to give birth, and the situation is not good."
An Ye: "Let's go over and take a look."
Upon hearing this, Li Xu loosened his grip on the saw and brushed off the sawdust on his body: "I'll go with you to take a look."
An Ye raised his eyebrows and said, "Why did you go and watch a woman giving birth? It's my fourth sister-in-law giving birth, not me, why are you meddling in it?"
Li Xu didn't dare to say anything after being yelled at by her. He just hummed softly: "I'm just worried... I just said I'd go take a look. I didn't mean anything else."
An Ye glared at him fiercely: "It's enough to have Fourth Brother to worry about. It's not your turn to worry about it! Cut down your tree!"
Li Xu shut his mouth awkwardly and said nothing.
Li Yao thought for a moment and said, "If you need any help, give us a call."
Ning Jia paused and said, "I think you should go and help."
