The old man's eyes turned red.
He had never been so nervous before. Even if someone pointed a gun at his head, his heart wouldn't beat a beat.
But now, he was in a state of confusion and didn't know what to do.
Mr. Shen sniffed and said weakly, "My good granddaughter has suffered a great crime!"
After hearing these words, Xu Moxin felt even more pain.
He secretly decided that he never wanted his wife to have babies again.
Never let her suffer this again.
The three brothers of the Shen family all glared at Xu Mo with gritted teeth. At this moment, they all wanted to drag him out and give him a good beating.
It's this guy who made Jiaojiao suffer. It turns out that all men are not good.
Mother Shen and Liu Xiaolan helped Shen Jiaojiao massage her body to relieve her pain.
Xia Shumo, Huahua and Li Ermei went to get hot water and put a hot towel on Shen Jiaojiao's back. The three of them changed the water and towels back and forth to ensure that the towels remained warm and would not cool down.
After a while, the contractions came again.
This contraction was more intense than any previous ones.
Shen Jiaojiao's cries of pain became louder and louder.
"Ah... it hurts, my waist is so sore..."
It feels like someone is breaking my waist, then reconnecting it and breaking it again, over and over again until the food in my stomach is emptied.
Xu Mo looked at Mother Shen for help, "Mom, is there any way to relieve the pain? Can you give me anesthesia? Jiaojiao won't be able to bear it if this continues."
"Who dares to use anesthesia nowadays? So far, there is no medicine that can reduce the pain of childbirth.
Xu Mo, go find a doctor and ask her to check how many fingers Jiaojiao is dilated. "
Xu Mo ran out immediately, "Doctor, doctor, please go and see my wife. She is in pain. Please help her."
The doctor who delivered Shen Jiaojiao this time was the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department. He had excellent medical skills and rich experience in delivering babies.
The doctor quickly went to the ward, drew the bed curtains, and began internal examination.
Soon, the conclusion was reached, "The woman's cervix is dilating very quickly. It is now three fingers dilated. It is estimated that she will be able to give birth in another three hours.
Her delivery conditions are very good. Now she just needs to maintain her strength, stop her from yelling, and feed her as much as she can."
After the doctor left, Xu Mo made a cup of malted milk and fed it to Shen Jiaojiao.
Shen Jiaojiao was in so much pain that she couldn't drink the liquid. But when she thought about the physical strength she would need to give birth later, she forced herself to drink it.
Time passed little by little in anxiety.
Two hours later, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
There was a chaotic noise outside.
"Your daughter-in-law is a money loser. She had heavy bleeding during childbirth. She is the most useless woman in our village.
Now we have to rush to the hospital for rescue, and it costs a lot of money!
I don't know how much money it will cost, and I will lose money on the stuff.
If she doesn’t give birth to a son this time, I will definitely beat her to death.”
Medical staff hurried past the ward door carrying a stretcher, followed closely by an old woman and a man in his thirties.
Those words just now were spoken by that old woman.
The old woman's daughter-in-law suffered from difficult labor and heavy bleeding during childbirth, and had to be sent to the hospital to give birth.
This was because the old woman imagined that the pregnant woman was pregnant with a boy, so she gritted her teeth and sent her to the hospital.
If the baby was born prematurely and if it was a girl, the old woman would definitely not care about her daughter-in-law's life or death, let alone send her to the hospital.
As a bystander, Shen Jiaojiao felt sorry for her daughter-in-law after hearing what the old woman said.
Not to mention the person involved.
She really couldn't understand why there were people in the world who were so strict about favoring boys over girls.
After diverting her thoughts for a while, Shen Jiaojiao ignored the pain of contractions.
The good times didn't last long, and another severe contraction pain came.
"ah……"
Shen Zhenhua couldn't wait any longer and asked, "It's almost time! Let the doctor come and see if we can send the baby to the delivery room for delivery. If we delay any longer, my granddaughter will pass out from the pain."
The three brothers ran out in a flash, shouting, "Doctor, doctor, please come and see my sister."
The doctor's legs are almost broken from running around today.
Almost every half hour, she would be called to perform internal examinations on women in labor.
There is no other way. Who says these people have so much power? She doesn't want to offend them.
The doctor performed another internal examination on Shen Jiaojiao, but this time the result was different.
"The woman's cervix is now eight fingers dilated. She can go to the delivery room now."
Everyone was delighted and helped to put the person on the trolley and sent him to the door of the delivery room.
“Family members are not allowed to enter.”
After the doctor finished speaking, he closed the door of the delivery room.
The Shen and Xu family members were all isolated outside the door.
Shen Jiaojiao was pushed onto the cold operating table and began to welcome the arrival of her little life.
There was also a pregnant woman lying on the delivery bed next to her.
Shen Jiaojiao recognized her. It was the pregnant woman with heavy bleeding who had just passed by her ward.
At this moment, the pregnant woman was in great pain, with tears streaming down her face.
At this time, the doctor who delivered the pregnant woman said, "You are bleeding severely and have lost too much blood. You must receive a blood transfusion immediately, otherwise both you and the fetus will be in danger."
The pregnant woman closed her eyes helplessly and asked weakly, "How much does a blood transfusion cost?"
"You've lost too much blood. You'll need about twenty."
The pregnant woman almost fainted.
twenty?
How could her mother-in-law be willing to spend twenty dollars to give her a blood transfusion?
The pregnant woman dared not speak.
The doctor shook his head helplessly, then went out to inform the family and explained the situation to the pregnant woman's family.
"What? Twenty? Why don't you just go and rob her! Her life is not worth twenty? Just let her die. As long as she gives birth to my good grandson, that will be enough." This was the pregnant woman's mother-in-law speaking.
The production room at that time was not soundproof at all, and one could hear clearly what was said outside.
Shen Jiaojiao obviously saw the pregnant woman's despair and the increasing tears on her face.
Then, the old woman's voice was heard outside, "Is she pregnant with a boy or a girl?"
The doctor said numbly, "I don't know. You should decide quickly! If it's too late, both the adult and the child will die."
The old woman was a little hesitant.
The husband of the pregnant woman felt sorry for his wife after all, and said, "Mom, twenty is twenty! Maybe your wife gave birth to a boy, and if you don't save him, the boy will die!"
The old woman burst into tears of heartache.
He slapped his thigh and cursed his mother.
"What a damn bad luck! She is here to bring disaster to our family. She is a money-loser and a short-lived ghost. Why can't she just give birth to the baby and then bleed to death? She is really going to kill me!"
Finally, under the persuasion of her son and with the hope of having a grandson, the old woman agreed to pay twenty yuan to save the man.
But she also said something harsh, "I can give her twenty yuan, but she will have to go to work in the fields right after she gives birth. We don't want to keep idle people who waste money."
