It's said that a woman's IQ drops after she gets pregnant, and it's true.
Han Luoxue had only just discovered that there was already a bottle of medicine in her system space: painless childbirth pills.
She had completely forgotten about it. She remembered that when she saw the medicine in the mall, she couldn't wait to buy it.
At that time, she also said that the system was really thoughtful, giving her this painless childbirth pill as soon as it knew she was pregnant.
And there are two more. Although they're not cheap, she's a rich woman now, and she has quite a few points.
Because the grain is being supplied to the army continuously, and the Zhou family is also selling it, plus the wine that Du Linlang is making, all of these can contribute to the points.
She immediately clicked on it, wondering why they gave her two. Was it to save one for when she had a second child?
But now, with the time for childbirth approaching, she had completely forgotten something so important. Han Luoxue wanted to slap herself in exasperation.
She hurriedly took out a pill. When Yunniang saw it, her expression changed. She looked uneasily at the people in the room, then turned around to block their view.
She didn't ask Han Luoxue what she was doing. Her daughter had plenty of strange things on her body, and her daughter certainly wouldn't do anything reckless at this time.
The pill melted instantly in her mouth, and Han Luoxue felt a warm current flow down her throat and down to her lower abdomen and waist. The waves of pain were indeed relieved quite a bit.
Han Luoxue breathed a sigh of relief; all the pain she had just endured was for nothing.
In just a short while, the pain in my lower back subsided considerably.
However, cold sweat still dripped down Han Luoxue's face, and Yunniang hurriedly wiped it away for her. At this moment, Han Luoxue finally understood the effect of the medicine.
The painless childbirth pills are indeed painless, but it only means that you can't feel the pain. Your body will still be the same as when you give birth normally.
"Dinner's here!"
A simple meal was served, but Han Luoxue didn't want to eat anything.
"Xue'er, you should eat something, you need to replenish your energy."
Thunder and lightning still raged outside, and the people who went to fetch the midwife had not yet arrived, nor had Han Luoyu and Doctor Xu.
Yunniang glanced at the heavy rain outside. A bolt of lightning flashed by, followed by a deafening clap of thunder, even louder than before.
Traveling outside in this weather is terrifying. I hope Yu'er and the others come back soon and that nothing bad has happened to them.
"Mom, I don't want to eat, I don't want to eat anything!" Han Luoxue felt uncomfortable all over, but she didn't feel hungry.
"No, you need to eat something to replenish your strength so that the delivery will be faster later."
Han Luoxue was on the verge of a breakdown. How could she have imagined that childbirth would be so grueling? Even if it didn't hurt, it was still enough to make one suffer.
Yunniang took the bowl, scooped out an egg. At this time, Han Luoxue couldn't eat anything else. She had just had someone make a brown sugar braised egg and reheated the leftover roast chicken from yesterday.
Seeing the eggs, Han Luoxue frowned but obediently ate them anyway. And you know what? After eating two eggs and drinking some brown sugar water, she really did feel a lot more energetic.
Yunniang tore off a steaming hot chicken leg. Han Luoxue frowned, but seeing her mother's expectant gaze, she ate it anyway. After finishing the chicken leg, she really did feel much better.
"Madam, it's good that you eat something; you'll need to exert yourself later!"
The old woman said happily, she had heard her young mistress say that this woman was very important to her, and if she performed well, her young mistress would definitely reward her.
...
"This is the first time Yancheng has ever experienced this kind of weather!"
Outside the room, Wang Yan was also very anxious. She kept going to the door to look at the torrential rain and the occasional thunder. Wang Yan shrank her neck in fright.
She dared not go out in such a stormy weather. She wondered how the person who went to fetch the midwife was doing. Hopefully, he was alright; she had sent the best coachman in the manor.
She hasn't told her father about this yet, and she doesn't know if her younger brother will resent her if he finds out. Probably not, she's only thinking of the family.
Her relationship with Madam Han wasn't very good to begin with, unlike Mu Yurou's. But today she brought the midwife, which was a great help. Would Madam Han treat her badly in the future?
Perhaps out of gratitude, Madam Han will give her the spice recipe.
Thinking of the aroma she smelled in her yard that day, Wang Yan couldn't help but swallow a few times. Although she hadn't gone over to taste it, the smell was just too intoxicating.
If their shop had this spice, wouldn't everyone who smelled it on the street rush in to try it?
How could the business in the store be bad? Wang Yan was excited. She stood directly at the door, staring straight into the rain.
"Miss, Madam Han wouldn't choose the weather to give birth!"
The little girl pouted and complained behind her. She had wanted to go in and help, but the people inside wouldn't let her in.
But only a few old women were left inside, and the maid was boiling water outside.
"What are you saying? Who picks the weather to give birth?"
Although Wang Yan was never married or had children, she had seen it all. Generally, when labor begins, someone can't leave your side; babies don't care about the weather or whether someone else is around.
"Miss, I've noticed you've changed," the little maid said, tilting her head.
“You weren’t this patient before. If this were the situation, you probably would have already…”
“Your young lady genuinely wants to be friends with Mrs. Han.”
Wang Yan sighed, filled with deep regret. Why had she harbored resentment towards Madam Han simply because she was beautiful?
Actually, they didn't do anything wrong. Who says that a woman can't go out when she's pregnant and has a big belly?
Thinking about it, Mrs. Han is somewhat pitiful. How many normal women come out when they are this pregnant? Don't they all stay at home obediently, resting and waiting to give birth?
I wonder where Mrs. Han came from. She's so heavily pregnant and has traveled so far, with her husband not even by her side; it's heartbreaking to think about.
"Wait a minute, something's not right. Why do I feel like I haven't heard Mrs. Han's voice for a while?"
I remember when I first arrived, I could still hear Han Luoxue groaning from time to time. But now it's eerily quiet inside.
Wang Yan was about to go in and take a look when she saw Yunniang anxiously wiping Han Luoxue's sweat. The old women from their city were also saying, "Madam, don't be in a hurry, we still need to wait a while!"
With a crack, another thunderclap struck.
Xiao Tao stumbled in, clutching an old woman tightly; both of them were soaked through.
"Oh dear, Miss Peach, are you trying to kill me?"
The old woman groaned as she walked, saying she didn't want to come out in such heavy rain.
But this girl is too wild; she grabbed her and ran away, refusing to let go.
"Please, please check on my wife! Please, save my wife!"
