Chapter 246 Gu Lan Gives Birth to a Child
Jiang Xinyue's expression changed, and she added, "She's in the wrong."
"What's wrong with that? Miss Lan'er would never do that."
Jiang Xinyue snorted coldly, "When she left our house, she said she had a miscarriage. We didn't even know the child existed, otherwise how could we let her go?"
Zhuwa's mother curled her lips. The Gu family members were very tight-lipped and seldom talked about the past.
She had only pieced the information together on her own, and only knew that the man from the Pei family was a heartless man who had wronged Gu Lan.
But she didn't know whether Gu Lan told her that the child was gone when he left.
"That must be because that brat of yours made Miss Lan'er sad. Otherwise, how could she, such a reasonable person, be so heartless?"
Jiang Xinyue didn't deny it. "But now Yuan Qing knows he's wrong. As the saying goes, a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. The two of them will reconcile sooner or later. Don't worry about it."
After she said this, everyone felt that Gu Lan would compromise even for the sake of the child.
After all, we are all honest and decent people.
Word has spread that Gu Lan is going to reconcile with Pei Yuanqing!
Naturally, this news also reached Gu Lan's ears. She knew that the Pei family did it on purpose.
Because of the Gu family's face, the Pei family has had a much better life these days.
There will be someone to help you chop wood.
It’s all because of the kindness the Gu family has shown to their fellow villagers.
But Gu Lan didn't want the villagers to be deceived. "No, I'm going to go find Pei Yuanqing and explain clearly why he is so shameless. What does my child have to do with him?"
"Lan'er, don't get excited..."
"Hiss!" Gu Lan took a deep breath. Perhaps because she was in a hurry to get up, she felt her stomach tighten, the kind that made her breathless.
Then she felt something was wrong with her body, and when she looked again, she found that her water had broken.
"Is she about to give birth?" Old Madam Gu quickly called her family members over.
But the men could not help much, so they just asked the experienced women in the village for help.
Li Mumu heard the noise and hurried in, "Cousin, don't be afraid."
After all, it was her first child, and she was a little premature. How could Gu Lan not be nervous?
However, she had also heard about the little girl performing a caesarean section on the road, so she had some idea in her mind.
She held Li Mumu's hand tightly, "Mumu, will I be okay?"
Li Mumu shook her head. "Although it's a little premature, it's full-term. It's okay, don't be nervous. I'm afraid you'll have to go through this for a while."
Madam Gu nodded. "The first child was somewhat difficult. I was in a state of turmoil for two days when I gave birth to your father. It wasn't easy for your mother to give birth to you either. My Lan'er, you suffered so much."
Gu Lan shook her head. Her family was around her, so she was willing to endure this hardship.
When Zhang Yi heard that his daughter was about to give birth, he quickly asked the children to go back and come back the next day.
When the old woman in the village heard that Gu Lan was about to give birth, she put down her work and came without saying a word. But when she arrived, she also asserted that she would not be able to give birth today and the earliest would be tomorrow morning.
"Miss Lan'er, all women have to go through this pain, so don't worry. I see that the baby in your belly is not very big, and you are in good health. Eat something when you are not in pain. I, your fifth aunt, will accompany you, and this baby will be safe and sound."
"Thank you very much, hiss...ah..."
Li Mumu was even more worried that her cousin would be too weak to bear the pain, so she quickly took out some marshmallows from her space and gave them to her to eat.
"What is this?" Gu Lan felt a very strange taste spreading in her mouth. It was sweet and had a milky aroma. It was a taste she had never tasted before.
"Medicine to give you strength." Li Mumu blinked.
Gu Lan took the time to smile.
Gu Yuru over there had already asked her what she wanted to eat.
"Aunt, I... I have no appetite. I don't want to eat anything." Gu Lan's face was pale and his forehead was covered with sweat due to the pain.
Because my water broke, I can only lie down now.
Her entire pregnancy was under Li Mumu's watchful eyes, so Li Mumu knew that her pregnancy was safe and she would just suffer some pain.
But how can giving birth to a child not be painful?
Otherwise, how can we say that mothers are great?
"Mom, I know what to do for my cousin."
Gu Yuru looked at the red dish in the pot with lots of chili peppers and asked again, "Mumu, is this...really okay?"
"Okay, otherwise, after my cousin gives birth, she won't be able to eat spicy food for a long time, and she will be craving it."
"But this..." Gu Yuru had never seen someone who was about to give birth eat so much spicy food.
"Mom, don't you even believe me?"
Gu Yuru nodded reluctantly and continued.
In the evening, the Pei family also heard about Gu Lan's premature birth.
Pei Yuanqing didn't know whether he was truly concerned or just taking the opportunity to show off, so he didn't dare to enter and just stood guard at the door of the Gu family.
Many women in the village came to check out because they were worried. When they entered, they told Gu Yuru that Pei Yuanqing was outside.
Gu Yuru frowned, "If he wants to stand, then he can stand."
The midwife has some experience.
After having an appetizer, Gu Lan felt quite comfortable in the first half of the night. Although the pain was severe, it was not that intense, and she could still talk and laugh with her family.
But in the second half of the night, things were different.
The Gu family didn't bother to care whether Pei Yuanqing was still there.
Gu Lan's suppressed voice of pain could be heard from the room, and Pei Yuanqing also shouted: "Lan'er, I'm here. Don't be afraid. You will be fine, and our child will be born safely."
Gu Lan was already in excruciating pain, and upon hearing Pei Yuanqing's voice, he became even more furious.
"Third Uncle!"
"Got it, Lan'er, leave the things outside to us, you take care of yourself."
The next moment, Gu Mingjing threw the man back to the dilapidated courtyard of the Pei family and warned him coldly, "Lan'er and the child have nothing to do with your family. If you dare to come here again, don't blame me for being rude."
"Third Uncle, Third Uncle!"
Gu Mingjing kicked him directly. Although he could have kicked the man to death, he still controlled the strength and just wanted to make him feel pain.
The Pei family rushed out to check. Pei Zhen tried to reason with him, but Gu Mingjing pointed at Pei Yuanqing lying on the ground and asked, "What? You want to be beaten too?"
Pei Zhen pursed his lips. Of course he didn't want to do that.
"After all, the child in Gu Lan's belly is Yuan Qing's flesh and blood. Aren't you going too far?"
"Excessive? Are you as excessive as me?" Gu Mingjing said coldly, "What you did is outrageous. I won't tell you right now. Lan'er and the child are more important. Don't let me see you again."
When the sky was just getting light, a baby's cry was heard from Gu Lan's room.
"Congratulations! It's a big fat boy, fair and tender, and very handsome!"
Hearing the noise, Gu Mingyu wiped away his tears. He couldn't bear to see his daughter suffering.
Gu Lan immediately decided that the child’s surname would be Gu!
