Chapter 178 The First Child is Born
Aunt Zhou frowned deeply. "Never mind that for now. Let's wait until Wanchun gives birth."
Granny Zhuang nodded.
Upon hearing the knocking, the Third Prince outside hurriedly came into the courtyard and opened the gate.
A young couple was standing outside the courtyard.
The couple stood in the moonlight, their bodies glowing faintly, as if they were immortals.
The Third Prince was stunned for a moment, rubbed his eyes, and looked ahead again. He saw the young couple walking towards him like ordinary people.
"Brother, we're just passing by and would like to ask you for a bowl of water."
The Third Prince paused for a moment, but didn't think much of it. He turned around and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go get a bowl of water."
Not long after, the Third Prince brought two bowls of water to the young couple.
The couple took the bowl from his hand and drank the water in one gulp.
At that moment, Du Wanchun's painful cry came from inside the room.
The Third Prince was startled and looked up into the room.
One of the women in the young couple looked over as well, a hint of worry in her eyes. She asked the Third Prince, "Is someone in your family giving birth?"
The Third Prince nodded. "Yes, our eldest daughter-in-law is about to give birth."
After hearing this, the woman took out a small box from her bosom and handed it to him, saying, "Brother, this is a secret recipe from our hometown. It can relieve the pain of women giving birth."
The Third Prince was startled. He stared at the thing in her hand for a long time, hesitant to take it. "Can it really relieve pain?"
The woman nodded and placed the box in his hand. "Don't worry, this stuff is harmless. You can try it if you don't believe me."
The Third Prince held the box, hesitating, but upon hearing Du Wanchun's shouts from inside the room, he couldn't bear it any longer. "Alright, thank you both, I'll go try it on my eldest daughter-in-law."
After saying that, he walked into the house.
The couple stood at the door, looking on with worry on their faces.
"Third Brother, do you think they'll take this medicine?"
"Of course, wait a moment."
At that moment, the shouting inside the house suddenly stopped.
The woman's face immediately lit up with a smile, "You made me worry for nothing."
The man took her hand and said softly, "Do you want to continue looking here, or go back?"
The woman smiled and looked at the lit window inside the room. "Let me take another look."
inside the house.
After Du Wanchun took the medicine that the Third Prince had asked Aunt Zhou to bring in, her stomach really didn't hurt as much anymore.
Aunt Zhou quickly asked her, "Wanchun, are you feeling better?"
Du Wanchun slowly sat up and smiled, "Mother, I feel much better."
Zhou Ruiyuan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and he held Du Wanchun's hand tightly in his palm.
Granny Zhuang exclaimed with delight, "This really is a miracle medicine! The pain will stop immediately after taking it!"
After she finished speaking, she checked Du Wanchun again and said, "Wanchun, it'll be soon. The baby should be out before dawn."
Du Wanchun nodded.
Aunt Zhou quickly got up to bring over the red ginseng soup and sat down to feed it to Du Wanchun.
An hour later, Du Wanchun and Zhou Ruiyuan's first child was born.
When Granny Zhuang took the child in her arms, she exclaimed with joy, "Madam, Wanchun has given birth! It's a big, healthy boy!"
After saying that, she quickly cut the child's umbilical cord, flicked the soles of the child's feet, and after seeing the child cry, she packed the bundle and handed it to Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou was still in a daze as she held the child, staring at him for a long time, her hands trembling slightly.
Du Wanchun peeked out, wanting to see the child.
Granny Zhuang laughed and said, "Wanchun, there's still more, hurry up and use your strength."
