Jin Yanzi shook her head and said, "If it's just one baby, I can tell from the shape of your belly. But if mommy's belly is filled with two, I can't tell. I hope there will be both a brother and a sister..."
Chen Afu's child hasn't been born yet, but this little thing has become so spoiled that it even calls its belly "dudu".
Before he could finish his words, there was another noise among the branches and leaves of Yan Chenxiang, and a golden house was shaking violently.
Jin Yanzi laughed and said, "Don't worry, Beibei. I will bring you out to play with your brothers and sisters right away."
When Chen Ahfu saw the golden swallow flying to the golden house, she lifted up her clothes. The golden swallow took Beibei down with its mouth and placed it directly on Chen Ahfu's belly, and it also stood on it.
Miracles happened again. The previously obedient fetuses became naughty again. Now that they could not do somersaults, they punched and kicked, and bulges appeared here and there on their big bellies.
The golden swallow jumped from one bag to another, laughing loudly. The golden beetle was also "happy". As long as it was attached to the small bag, its wings would open a little and its small pointed beak would stretch a little, as if it wanted to kiss the fetus in the belly.
Now, every fetal movement is a painful experience for Chen Afu, because her belly has grown to its maximum size, and it hurts when the little one hits or kicks her.
But seeing this scene, she was happy no matter how painful it was.
She stroked Jinbei and said, "They will come out soon. I don't know when Beibei will hatch life. If Beibei has life first, he will be the older brother or sister. If they come out first, Beibei will be the younger brother or sister."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Bei's body began to shake, and a circle of faint golden light emanated from his body.
Chen Ahfu quickly coaxed, "Don't worry. In fact, it's good to be a brother or sister. Brothers and sisters will always love you and feel sorry for you."
Only after hearing this did Jin Bei calm down.
The golden swallow chirped, "Beibei is the younger sister, I can feel it. It hatched very quickly. If it weren't for the help of mommy's big belly and the younger brothers and sisters in her belly, it would have taken who knows how many years it would have taken to hatch."
Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "Then I deserve to be Beibei's mother, right?"
Golden Swallow chirped, "Of course, Mommy has done a great deed, and I am very grateful to you."
As soon as it finished speaking, Chen Afu felt a sudden and severe pain in her stomach, so painful that she could hardly breathe.
She said, "Oh no, I might be giving birth."
After saying that, she endured the pain, put her clothes in order, and left the room. She held onto the table and began to moan loudly, while she ate the green bird's nest in the handkerchief.
The people outside heard the noise and rushed in. The midwife comforted her, "Don't panic, grandma, you are just starting to have labor pains, it's still early."
A side room in the east wing had been cleared out long ago, and Chen Ahfu was helped there by Li Ma. She would lie down when she felt pain, and get up and walk around when she didn't feel pain.
At night, the pain worsened.
Chen Afu had never imagined that giving birth would be so painful or take so long. It felt like she had experienced two lifetimes.
The labor pains started at 5 p.m. on the 29th day, and by 10 p.m. at night, the cervix was only four fingers wide. Then at 7 p.m. the next day, it was ten fingers wide, but the baby was not in the right position, and she still couldn't give birth. Chen Afu felt like she was dying, and fainted from the pain, and was woken up by the midwife, and fainted again from the pain. She could first hear the children crying outside the window, and Dabao's cries were even more piercing, "Mom, mom, if you're in pain, I won't give birth... wuwuwu... I don't want a brother or sister..."
She could also hear the crying of Miss Chu and Little Li Xuan, but she couldn't hear what they were saying.
The children's cries stopped, but the cries of the Wang family women could be heard again. And accompanying these cries was Chu Lingxuan's call.
"Afu, you have to hold on..."
"Ahfu, you have to give birth to the baby safely. We will be waiting for you outside..."
"Afu, if you're gone, what will I do? What will the children do..."
Later, Chu Lingxuan's calling turned into sobbing, and Chen Shiying's crying could also be heard.
Later, Golden Swallow's crying voice was heard again, "Mommy, I'm sorry. If I had known that giving birth to you was so hard, I should have given you more green bird's nest. Mommy, it's all because I'm stingy... wuwuwu..."
She gave birth until the hour of Yin on October 1st. When she felt she was about to die and her soul seemed to have floated out of her body, she heard the midwife shout, "All right, grandma, push harder!"
Chen Afu exerted her last bit of strength and heard a loud cry, and her body finally felt relieved.
I heard another midwife shout, "It's a boy, a healthy fat boy."
There was a cheer outside the window.
Just as Chen Afu was about to fall asleep, a midwife said, "Grandma, there is another baby in your belly. Don't fall asleep. Try harder. It will come soon..."
Chen Afu rested for a while, then felt a sharp pain in her stomach. Half a quarter of an hour later, she gave birth to her second baby, and then she knew nothing.
The baby's cry was still loud, and the midwife shouted again, "Congratulations, congratulations, another boy, another big fat boy."
When they heard that the two children were born safely, the eldest weighed 5.4 jin and the second weighed 5.1 jin, the people outside cheered again.
Chen Shiying and Wang cried again, this time out of excitement.
At this time, the main courtyard was brightly lit, and Chu Lingxuan, Wang, Chen Shiying, and Chen Ming had been waiting here. At first, Jiang and the old marquis were also there. Jiang had gone home the night before, and the old man was persuaded to go back at midnight.
Chu Lingxuan was kept outside and not allowed to enter the delivery room. He heard Chen Afu was silent again and asked anxiously, "Where is Afu? How is Afu?"
Nanny Li came out and said with a smile, "Don't worry, sir. The grandmother is asleep."
Now it was even darker and the dew was heavier, so they didn't dare to bring the child out for them to see. Knowing that the baby was safe and that their daughter had given birth to two big fat boys for the Chu family, Chen Shiying and Chen Ming were very happy. Although they regretted not being able to see their grandson in the first place, they were relieved and went to the outer courtyard to rest.
Chu Lingxuan sent someone to inform the old man and Jiang.
After the midwife had finished cleaning up Chen Afu and carried the unconscious girl to another room, Chu Lingxuan and Wang hurried in.
When Chen Ahfu woke up, it was already noon. She woke up because she was hungry. She had been carried back to the bedroom. There was a small bed next to the big bed.
Wang was holding a boy and teasing him. When she saw Chen Ahfu wake up, she smiled and said, "Awake? My girl, you found a good son-in-law. He has been watching over you and just went to the west wing. The old marquis, your father, and the other father, they are all in the west wing..."
Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "Mom, let me see the child..."
