"Jinhua!" Liu shouted, but it was too late.
Jinhua used a lot of force in that move just now.
Jiang was caught off guard and the back of her hand turned red after being slapped like that.
She was already pregnant and had difficulty moving. She bent down with great effort to support Jinhua who was kneeling on the ground. She lost her balance after being hit so suddenly and couldn't help but take a step back.
She didn't know how she stepped back so quickly that she stepped on a vegetable leaf that someone had dropped on the ground. Her foot slipped and she fell backwards on her back.
After Jiang fell, she couldn't get up and her stomach started to ache.
It looked like she was about to give birth.
Jinhua felt extremely aggrieved when she saw that she had gotten into trouble. She couldn't help but burst into tears. Xia Youtian yelled, "Shut up!"
At that moment, Xia Youtian wanted to kick Jinhua to death.
Xia Youtian picked up Jiang in a panic and went to the main house of the elderly couple which was closest to him.
Liu's face turned pale as she murmured, "This is going to be a big trouble..."
Zhou was still able to hold on. She told Sun to boil water and prepare scissors, wood ash and other things. She also asked Wu to invite a doctor and a midwife, and asked Cheng to send someone to the fourth room to give the children a message.
After all, Jiang's death has not yet arrived. If something happens to her, the children cannot miss the chance to see their mother for the last time.
Zhou's arrangements were well-organized, and the panicked crowd felt reassured.
At this time, Jiang had severe stomach pain and had already seen blood. She felt that she was losing blood. She was panicked and her face was pale.
Xia Youtian stood beside her, holding Jiang's hand tightly, completely forgetting the rule that men were not allowed to enter the delivery room.
Zhou didn't bother to say anything to him. After all, Jiang was on the verge of life and death at this moment.
If something really happened to Jiang, the knot between the fourth and first wives would be unbreakable. Xia Youtian might even hate the old couple together.
Why should she say anything more at this moment?
Upon hearing the news, Lihua and Linghua immediately dropped their work and ran towards the old house.
Xia Daohua deliberately fell behind. Not only did she calmly lock the door, but after leaving the house, she did not rush to the old house like Lihua and the others. Instead, she took out a small electric scooter from the space and rode it to the town.
Because he was wearing a helmet and driving at the maximum speed, even if someone on the side of the road saw him, they would only see a strange-looking person who left a trail of smoke and ran away in a flash.
Xia Daohua rushed to the town, put away the electric scooter, ran to the carriage shop to hire a large carriage, went to Pujitang to hire a doctor, and went to find the midwife to whom she had paid a deposit before, and asked the carriage owner to rush back to Beiguan Village as quickly as possible.
Along the way, Xia Daohua was anxious and kept urging the car owner to go faster.
The doctor and the midwife were also infected by Xia Daohua, and both looked serious.
The coachman also cracked his whip and drove almost recklessly along the way. Fortunately, today was not a market day, so there were not many cars and people on this road.
When they arrived at the gate of the Xia family's old house in Beiguan Village, Xia Daohua jumped out of the car, pulled the doctor and the midwife down, threw a purse full of small change to the car owner, said "I'll give you the extra as a reward", and ran forward, holding the doctor in one hand and the midwife in the other.
This place is not far from the old couple's main house, and Jiang's shouting can be heard.
Without Xia Daohua's urging, the doctor and the midwife quickened their pace.
Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stopped Xia Daohua: "Hey, this delivery room is no place for you! Daohua, get out of here, you little girl, what are you doing here joining in the fun!"
Xia Daohua said nothing and pushed Zhou away: "Human life is at stake. I'll talk to you after you come out!"
Zhou was startled by Xia Daohua's push. Daohua had already violently pushed the door open, lifted the curtain, and pulled the doctor and midwife into the room.
When the three of them rushed into the house, they saw Jiang holding Xia Youtian's hand and crying "Dad" and "Mom".
The blood under her body had soaked the mattress.
The village doctor invited by the old house was helpless, and the midwife was also trying to help, like a panicked chicken. Xia Youtian didn't cry out loud, but his face was already covered with tears.
Xia Daohua shouted, "Mom!"
After hearing this, Jiang looked up at Xia Daohua.
Xia Daohua said anxiously, "Mom, I've called a doctor and the best midwife from town for you. You must hold on!"
The doctor nodded, stepped forward to take Jiang's pulse, and then quickly inserted dozens of needles into the acupuncture points. In less than two minutes, Jiang's bleeding stopped.
The midwife came forward to help check the birth canal, rubbed several acupoints on Jiang's belly, and instructed Jiang to follow her rhythm and adjust her breathing. Less than a quarter of an hour later, Jiang let out a cry and saw the baby's head.
About half a minute later, the wet little baby was born.
The midwife picked up the baby and slapped it on the buttocks, and the baby cried loudly.
"It's a young lady. She's so pretty!"
The midwife always spoke well of him.
Jiang was exhausted and soaked all over. Her hair was scattered in strands and stuck to her pale face, making her look extremely haggard and tired.
She said weakly, "Let me see."
The midwife came forward with the child in her arms. Jiang took a look and said to Xia Youtian, "This child seems a little dark..."
Before he could finish his words, he passed out.
Everyone was busy again. The doctor came forward to confirm the situation and said that Jiang was simply too tired and had lost too much blood, so she fell asleep. It would be beneficial to let her sleep at this time.
Only then did everyone quiet down.
Xia Youtian even put his ear close to Jiang's ear to confirm, and found that Jiang's breathing was even and she was really asleep, so he was relieved.
He wiped his face with his sleeve and looked at Xia Daohua deeply.
Xia Daohua couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
Am I being too outrageous?
But, human life is at stake! Moreover, Jiang had always been kind to him. Since he had taken over her body, he naturally took over the original responsibility of this body.
Not to mention that Jiang is a good mother, even if Jiang is a reckless person like Sun, it is impossible for me to just stand by and watch her die, right?
After Jiang fell asleep, everyone left the delivery room.
The village doctor and midwife the Xia family had invited from the village were a bit panicked. After all, Jiang's life had nearly been in their hands. However, Xia Youtian didn't settle accounts with them. Instead, he sent them away with kind words.
The red envelope was given, but it was only a few dozen copper coins, which was customary in the village.
Xia Youtian sincerely thanked the doctor and midwife hired by Xia Daohua. Not only did he say a lot of words of gratitude, he also gave both of them real money.
When Liu saw this, her eyes turned green.
That was money! Pure silver! Xia Youtian actually spent it so carelessly!
