Chapter 68 Chapter 68 Can you find the one on the cliff...
"She's so small."
Xuan Jinyu subconsciously smiled at the tiny, wrinkled, red child, then panicked, "Why isn't she crying?"
Before she married Su Guanzhang, all of her brothers in the Xuan family, except her third brother, already had children.
After marrying Su Guanzhang, she also witnessed the birth of Su Yumu.
Therefore, she knew that newborn babies were not very good-looking. However, she also remembered that newborn babies had to cry, otherwise they would be in danger of dying.
Su Guanzhang slapped the child's feet a little harder.
"Wow." The child finally felt the pain and started crying with his little mouth open.
The couple breathed a sigh of relief.
Xuan Jinyu's eyes burned, and she felt like crying. This was her daughter, the daughter she'd carried for nine months, her and Su Guanzhang's flesh and blood.
She will only have this one child in her life.
Xuan Jinyu was filled with indescribable emotion, and her eyes were unconsciously filled with tears.
"Jinyu, don't cry." Su Guanzhang said hurriedly, coaxing the child unskillfully while observing her condition worriedly.
He couldn't even free his hands to feel her pulse.
Xuan Jinyu was about to cry, but when she saw him so flustered, she burst out laughing.
Just smile.
Su Guanzhang bent down and kissed her sweaty forehead.
He took out the dagger he had brought with him, which he had warmed over the fire at dinner yesterday, and carefully cut the umbilical cord.
Then he quickly took off his undershirt with one hand and wrapped the child tightly.
Of course, he still had to support Xuan Jinyu, who was completely exhausted. It was naturally not easy to wrap it with one hand, so Xuan Jinyu had to support him and pull up his shirt.
But that's enough.
Feeling the warmth and warmth as if it were in the mother's womb, the little baby suddenly felt at ease, made a sound of his mouth, and slowly calmed down.
"She fell asleep." Su Guanzhang said softly.
He was hugging the mother and daughter at this time, and his eyes had begun to turn red.
A drop of water fell on Xuan Jinyu's hand. She looked up with difficulty and saw that they were his tears, but she pursed her lips and smiled.
Su Guanzhang bent down and rubbed her cheek with his face, then kissed her with a smile. His wife was always happy to see him make a fool of himself.
He even wiped his tears onto his face!
Xuan Jinyu wanted to hide, but she had no strength left and her head was stuck between his shoulder and cheek, unable to move.
I had no choice but to let him kiss me to the end, and then use his face to wipe away the sweat and tears on my face.
"Su Guanzhang, you did it on purpose." Xuan Jinyu glared at him, her brows furrowed, and she was very disgusted with his behavior just now.
How could one use one's own face as a handkerchief? Even if it was her own face.
This is a bit too rough.
Where did the scholarly elegance and grace in his daily gestures go?
Su Guanzhang chuckled softly, "Yeah. Jinyu, I did it on purpose."
Xuan Jinyu was a little angry, so she turned around and bit his collarbone.
She had just given birth and her strength had not yet recovered, so the force of her breath was weak.
Su Guanzhang's features were gentle, and his gaze upon her was full of affection.
There was a breeze blowing, and it was warm.
Su Guanzhang's undershirt was already wrapped around the child, leaving him uncovered and only emitting warm body breath.
The lake water is also warm.
Wrapped in such warmth, Xuan Jinyu felt drowsy.
Su Guanzhang lowered his head and gently bit her ear, "Jinyu, don't sleep."
She couldn't sleep because the placenta had not been delivered yet.
Seeing that Xuan Jinyu didn't react, Su Guanzhang hardened his heart, used a little force between his teeth, and ground it.
Xuan Jinyu was disturbed by the slight stinging pain. She opened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief. "You bit me?"
Actually, it doesn’t hurt that much, not even as much as a mosquito bite.
But she was used to being held in his palm, and when he treated her like this, she felt an inexplicable sense of grievance in her heart.
As she spoke, a layer of mist had already gathered in her eyes.
Su Guanzhang lowered his head and looked at her, apologizing earnestly, "I'm sorry, Jinyu, did I hurt you?"
He kissed her watery eyes and said, "If you feel bad, bite me. Just don't cry or sleep, okay?"
Xuan Jinyu's heart softened at his gentle gaze and tone, and the grievance she felt soon dissipated.
After all this commotion, her sleepiness soon disappeared.
But she was still thinking about the inexplicable reason why he bit her, "You haven't told me why you bit me." She tilted her head and bit his collarbone, staring at him, as if she would not let go until he answered her.
Su Guanzhang was amused by her cute reaction and couldn't help but bent down and kissed her, "I was just worried that you would fall asleep, I didn't mean to bite you."
Okay!
Xuan Jinyu relaxed.
She was extremely tired, but he wouldn't let her sleep.
Xuan Jinyu glared at him again, turned her head to look at her newborn daughter, and carefully touched her tender little face.
"Won't we disturb her by talking like this?" she asked in a low voice.
Su Guanzhang was slapped in the face again, but he was already used to it. He replied, "No, let's just talk normally."
The more Xuan Jinyu looked at her daughter, the happier she felt, and she seemed to no longer feel tired.
She was so well behaved, sleeping peacefully in her father's arms. Xuan Jinyu placed her hand under her nose worriedly, and only felt relieved when she felt her warm breath.
"I want to hug her."
Su Guanzhang did not agree, "You are still weak."
Well, Xuan Jinyu just had this idea on impulse, she didn’t have to have a daughter.
She was able to stand firmly in the lake only with the support of the man's arms and body. If he agreed, she would be worried that she would drop her daughter.
After talking for a while, the fatigue of the body came back again.
Xuan Jinyu wanted to close her eyes.
"Jinyu, I really can't sleep." Su Guanzhang pressed his lips against her face, kissing her slowly, making her feel itchy. It was like a gentle breeze, or like catkins brushing against her face.
"Jinyu, hold on a little longer, ok?"
In this lake, he also had to take care of the child in his arms. With only one hand, he couldn't take care of her body as conveniently as before.
If it is postpartum hemorrhage, it will usually occur during this hour. He needs to keep her awake so that he can observe her.
Thinking of this, Su Guanzhang's eyebrows dimmed.
Xuan Jinyu didn't notice the change in his expression. She just let him rub and kiss her cheeks, and she couldn't close her eyes anymore.
"How long are we going to stay in the lake?" she asked, her voice full of grievance.
Su Guanzhang asked her to continue looking at the child in her arms, "Wait a little longer."
"I'm about to get wrinkled." Xuan Jinyu complained softly.
They had been soaking in the lake for most of the night, so their skin must be wrinkled. Thinking of this, she frowned.
His eyes fell on the child in his arms, and his brows relaxed unconsciously, and a smile appeared on his face.
The early birds, which were singing happily just now, have stopped singing now. One can only see them jumping on the branches, looking very excited.
The first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone into the mountains. The lake shimmered and the whole mountain slowly woke up.
Although Xuan Jinyu had no internal martial arts skills, she could still sense the rustling sounds in the nearby grass and trees.
The sleepiness that had just dissipated came back again.
Xuan Jinyu couldn't hold back any longer and closed her eyes again. Suddenly, she heard Su Guanzhang say in her ear, "Lan, how about calling me Sister Lan?"
Is this the name you gave your daughter?
She quickly opened her eyes again and looked up at him.
Su Guanzhang smiled and kissed her eyes. "Don't sleep yet. Our daughter's name is 'Su Yulan'. Is this a good name?"
Mist, fog in the mountains.
Xuan Jinyu pondered the name, recalling her daughter's first cry surrounded by clouds and mist.
"Okay." She smiled and carefully reached out to touch her daughter's face. "Just call her Sister Lan."
Last night they were discussing the name of their unborn child, and this word wasn't on their mind.
But now she felt that this word was most appropriate - she thought that this was the name her daughter chose herself.
The child was born in a dreamlike state amidst thick fog, and her arrival also fulfilled her dream of becoming a mother.
"Sister Lan." Xuan Jinyu murmured her daughter's name, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Suddenly, her stomach, which had just shrunk, felt a strong contraction again. She couldn't help but bend over and curl up.
Su Guanzhang hurriedly steady her body.
There was a slight sound of someone falling into the water.
Xuan Jinyu felt like she was hallucinating.
But it was a re-enactment of the scene.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Su Guanzhang quickly pick up something from the water, but he didn't show it to her. He just quickly put it on the hand that was around her.
It must be the placenta, Xuan Jinyu thought.
really.
"Let's go back to the cave." Su Guanzhang kissed her forehead which was wet with sweat again.
Now that the placenta had been delivered successfully, they no longer had to soak in the water.
The lake water beneath their feet had already been dyed red.
This lake has excellent self-cleaning ability, and the crimson color soon spread. It is estimated that the bloody smell will dissipate without waiting until tomorrow.
Su Guanzhang stepped ashore and used his internal strength to dry the lower garments of the two people that were soaked by the lake water.
Xuan Jinyu discovered that ever since the heavy rain in the mountains, he had liked this method of drying clothes before entering the carriage, which was quick and labor-saving.
Of course, she and her child can't stand the cold now, so this is the best solution.
Su Guanzhang found that Xuan Jinyu was looking at him with her eyes open, so he bent down and kissed her on the forehead. He quickly took down the clothes hanging on the tree, put them in her arms, and then used his lightness skills to go into the cave.
On the stone platform in the big cave, the two layers of clothes that Su Guanzhang had laid out yesterday were a little messy, indicating how busy they were last night.
Xuan Jinyu leaned on him and watched him carefully place the child inside. Her dissatisfaction with his "bad behavior" of disturbing her sleep just now had long since disappeared.
After all, the man she married is worthy of her love, which is great.
A child was born between them.
Although she was still in severe pain down there, she raised her lips slightly.
Su Guanzhang carefully helped Xuan Jinyu lie down on the bed he had made and covered her with her thin jacket - she had just given birth and needed thicker clothes.
"Are you cold? Do you want to cover yourself with your cloak?" He touched her cheek, which had turned pale due to blood loss.
Xuan Jinyu shook her head, "That's all."
It wasn't cold at the bottom of the cliff, and she was warm enough with a thin coat.
Su Guanzhang leaned over and kissed her pale lips, then took the child in his arms and replaced the undershirt that wrapped his daughter with his thin jacket.
He put on his shirt, squatted in front of the stone bed and asked her, "Does it still hurt?"
Xuan Jinyu touched the baby's fluffy hair, and the joy in her heart was about to overflow.
Just as she was about to answer, she heard the sound of a large bird flapping its wings from the outermost entrance of the cave.
Su Guanzhang's face changed, and he alertly protected the mother and daughter behind him. The sound had already reached this big cave.
The familiar cry of a white falcon reached my ears.
"It's the jade claw. It's coming to find us." Xuan Jinyu said happily, but she did not forget to lower her voice for fear of disturbing her sleeping daughter.
She had just touched her daughter's soft, furry little head, and for a moment she remembered the jade claw.
But I didn't expect it to find here at this time.
The coincidence was unbelievable, but I couldn't hide my excitement.
The white falcon had already flown in front of the two of them, tilting its head to look at the tiny human baby wrapped in a familiar aura, as if sizing her up.
As a ferocious bird, the thing on the ground that emitted a faint bloody smell did not attract its attention at all.
"She is my newborn daughter." Xuan Jinyu gave Bai Suan a gentle smile, and turned her head to look at the baby with eyes so gentle that they seemed to be dripping with tears.
The white falcon could actually find its way to the bottom of this cliff... Su Guanzhang seemed to be lost in thought.
"Can you find the people on the cliff?" he suddenly asked, remembering that the jade claw had brought them a goat not long ago.
