Chapter 215 The Pain of Childbirth
In the room.
Su Hanchu was already lying on the bed. Jun Moye approached Jiang and held her hand nervously. He had never been so nervous in his life. Even when the Qin Palace was abolished and he was demoted to a commoner, he had never been so scared. But seeing Su Hanchu's nervous and scared face, as her husband and the father of her child, at this moment, he had to stay calm no matter what.
"Chuchu, don't be afraid. The midwife has been prepared long ago. Your fetus has been taken care of by Doctor Li. Mother-in-law has also asked someone to invite someone. Chuchu, we will all be with you."
The first person to rush over was naturally the midwife who lived in the Jun family. She washed her hands in the prepared hot water as soon as she came in, and then touched Su Hanchu's belly.
"Madam, the baby is in a normal position, but your water broke first. I'm afraid the birth canal is dilating slowly. We need to deliver the baby as soon as possible. Wait for the doctor to arrive so I can drink a bowl of medicine to induce labor."
Jun Moye hurriedly gave orders loudly upon hearing this.
"Someone, hurry up and rush Doctor Li. Why hasn't Doctor Li come yet?"
Whether in this life or the previous one, Su Hanchu has carried out countless missions and killed people. He has also lived the life of an ordinary person, been exiled to farm, and experienced trivial matters. The only thing he has never done is give birth to a child. It would be a lie to say that he is not nervous.
Especially in the stomach, waves of pain came. At the beginning, the pain was like the pain of menstruation. As the pain intensified, Su Hanchu held Jun Moye's hand tightly in panic.
Sensing her fear, Jun Moye hurriedly took her hand and put it to his mouth, kissing the back of her hand.
"Don't be afraid Chuchu, I'm here, I'm here."
Soon Wei Furong also arrived and came in to check on her daughter.
"Chu Chu, good boy, how do you feel?"
When Su Hanchu saw his mother, he couldn't help but look aggrieved.
"Mom, it hurts."
Wei Furong had given birth to several children, so she naturally knew what it was like to give birth. It was like stepping into the gates of hell and exchanging half of her life for a child.
Standing aside, he spoke with heartache.
"Mother knows, Chuchu. Mother knows you are the bravest one. We will definitely be able to make it through this. When we do, you will have a very cute child."
Every time Su Hanchu had contractions, she couldn't help but frown due to the pain. It turned out that being a mother was so difficult. She didn't frown at all when she was injured, but giving birth made her frown and experience fear and worry. Moreover, she had been drinking the spiritual spring water in the space, so her body was naturally stronger than that of ordinary women. This was just the beginning, and she was already in so much pain. Wouldn't it be even more difficult for those ordinary women?
About an incense stick later, Doctor Li was hurriedly pulled over by Jiang Like.
Jun Moye spoke hurriedly when he saw Doctor Li finally arrived.
"Doctor, please take a look at my wife."
Doctor Li quickly took Su Hanchu's pulse.
"My lord, you must be worried. Madam has a good constitution and was moving around before the birth, so there's no problem. The amniotic fluid broke first, but there's no bleeding. I'll make you a medicine to hasten labor. After you drink it, I'll prescribe a medicine to invigorate you. Both mother and child will be safe, but childbirth will still be painful."
Jun Moye finally felt relieved after hearing what Doctor Li said before. But when he heard the last sentence that she would eventually suffer, he began to feel distressed again and wished he could bear the punishment for her.
Soon the contractions became more and more intense, and beads of sweat appeared on Su Hanchu's forehead. Every time there was a contraction, he couldn't help but bite his back teeth tightly. Damn, this hurt more than a knife wound.
During this period, I also drank spiritual spring water several times to refresh myself.
Finally, Doctor Li came with the labor-inducing drug. Su Hanchu stood up with the help of Jun Moye and drank the drug in one gulp. The contractions became more frequent. Because the amniotic fluid had been breaking for a long time, Su Hanchu could only lie down and wait for the birth canal to open. Some traditional methods of midwifery were useless.
At this time, Su Hanchu's face was pale with pain, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and it felt like there was a giant beast inside his body tearing at his stomach. He knew what it felt like to have pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow. It was simply unbearable. There was only one voice in his head, constantly clamoring.
“It hurts, it hurts so much, it hurts so much…”
Occasionally, warm liquid would slowly flow out, and the midwife would watch anxiously.
"Madam, relax a little and let me check if your birth canal is open."
Ping'er took the maid to change the hot water again and again.
Every time the midwife washed her hands, the water turned blood red.
"Ma'am, gather your strength and push as hard as you can during each contraction."
Jun Moye looked at Su Hanchu's face which was as pale as paper. He took the hot handkerchief handed to him by the maid and wiped the sweat from her face and neck. His eyes were full of heartache which seemed to be about to overflow.
Wei Furong was happy to see Jun Moye's thoughtfulness, but she also felt sorry for her daughter.
"Mo Ye, it's not good to have a man in the delivery room. Why don't you go out and wait while I stay with Chu Chu."
Su Hanchu came from the modern era, so naturally he didn't believe this. He just glanced at him slightly, wanting to see what he would choose.
After hearing this, Jun Moye still held Su Hanchu's hand tightly.
"Mother-in-law, Chuchu is the most important. I don't care about those formalities. She is desperately trying to give birth to our child. If I can't even accompany her at this time, then why should I be her husband?"
After hearing this, Wei Furong looked at Jun Moye and said nothing more. However, she secretly decided in her heart that since he treated her daughter so sincerely, she would treat him as her own son in the future.
The room was filled with a tense and uneasy atmosphere, as well as anticipation for new life.
In the end, Su Hanchu couldn't bear it anymore.
"ah……"
He cried out in pain.
Jun Moye looked at her painful expression and felt his heart ache as well, but he was helpless and couldn't bear it for her.
"Ping'er, find Doctor Li and ask if there's anything we can do to relieve Madam's pain. Madam has always been strong-willed, but she even cried out in pain. How painful must this be?"
Doctor Li came soon and spoke after taking Su Hanchu's pulse.
"Sir, there is a kind of acupuncture that can reduce pain, but it can't be used too often, it can only be used once..."
Jun Moye spoke hurriedly.
"Then what are you waiting for? Use it on her now. Look how much pain she's in."
Doctor Li spoke.
"Wait a little longer, sir. This is still a long way to go. The acupuncture method can only be used when Madam is in unbearable pain."
Then he instructed the midwife.
"Mrs. Qian, you are a famous midwife in our town. Wait until your birth canal is five fingers dilated and tell me so I can give you acupuncture."
Two hours passed in a long and painful manner. Su Hanchu felt that he fainted from the pain every time he had a contraction, and was woken up by the pain during the second contraction.
"ah………"
Hearing her painful voice again and again, Jun Moye's eyes were already red, but he could only hold her hand to comfort her.
"Chu Chu, don't be afraid. I know you are the bravest. Our Chu Chu is the strongest. You must get through this. After this child is born, we won't have any more children."
