Chapter 290 Birth
The moment Qin Suisui fell, while she still had the strength, she quickly pricked her hand with an acupuncture needle before finally fainting.
Tu Xiaoqi was being pushed and shoved by her own mother when, in a flash, she saw Qin Suisui, who was heavily pregnant, being knocked down by the fat ball her mother had brought!
"Soo! Soo!"
"Get away from me, you fat slob!"
Tu Xiaoqi immediately broke free from her mother's grasp like a madwoman, grabbed the unconscious Qin Suisui, and shouted, "Help! Sisters! Is anyone home? Come quick! Suisui's in trouble!"
Since Qin Suisui became pregnant, Pei Jiuyan, who is usually very cold, has surprisingly "melted" on his own. He goes door to door delivering food and saying nice things, hoping that if Qin Suisui needs help when he is not home, they will definitely lend a hand.
Ever since Qin Suisui's excellent medical skills were revealed, the women in the family compound would often ask her to treat them. Qin Suisui readily agreed, which won everyone's favor.
In addition to the child's previous contributions to the research on the Japanese encephalitis virus, and his later feat of single-handedly destroying the Japanese stronghold, everyone admires him even more.
Now that she's pregnant, the usually aloof Pei Jiuyan has suddenly started speaking sweetly to everyone. Regardless of whether people are afraid of him or not, I ask you, in this day and age, which man can be as serious about his wife's affairs as he is?
The sisters-in-law readily agreed, so when Tu Xiaoqi called out, several doors opened hastily, and many people rushed over:
"What's wrong? What's wrong, Sui Sui?"
"Ouch! Who the hell pushed the pregnant woman down?!"
"She's bleeding! Stop talking, get her to the hospital right away..."
Qin Suisui was then sent to the military hospital amidst all the commotion.
After the doctor quickly performed some emergency treatment, he took the person to the operating room.
Qin Suisui was still unconscious, and because she was bleeding from the impact, there was a risk of the baby suffocating. Therefore, the doctors had no choice but to perform an emergency cesarean section. (Cesarean sections have been performed in China since 1892, but the rate was low and the technology was not as advanced as it is now.)
However, the pregnant woman is currently in a coma, and her family members are not present. Cesarean section technology was not very advanced at this time, and the surgery carried certain risks. No relatives signed the consent form for Qin Suisui.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Qin Suisui woke up thanks to her strong will.
Knowing her physical condition, the injection she received before fainting was a lifesaver for her and her baby. With her last breath, she signed the surgical consent form.
When I woke up again, it was already the morning of the next day.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Pei Jiuyan's red-rimmed eyes.
Upon seeing her awake, Pei Jiuyan's seemingly lifeless eyes suddenly blazed with fervent hope: "Wife, you're awake? Are you alright? Is anything bothering you? I'll go call the doctor right away!"
Others quickly gathered around. Qin Suisui then realized that her parents-in-law, master and senior brother, Chi Donglin, Song Yunlai, Jia Zhenzhen, Su Yunyi, Sun Ruwen... were almost all there.
What she found most unbelievable was that her parents were there too!
When she saw her mother's face, filled with endless heartache, all the fear and grievances of childbirth welled up inside her. She pouted, and just like when she was a child, large tears fell down her cheeks: "Mom, it hurts so much!"
Hua Qing, who had been holding back her tears, let them stream down her face in an instant. She bent down and hugged Qin Suisui tightly, her voice choked with sobs, but her hands were extremely gentle, as if comforting Qin Suisui when she was a child, stroking her hair gently: "My darling, you've suffered, darling, it doesn't hurt, Mommy's here, darling, don't be afraid..."
Qin Suisui didn't know why she was crying. Perhaps it was because the pain was too much, or perhaps it was the fear of childbirth, or perhaps it was postpartum hormonal imbalance as the doctor had said. In any case, she hid in Hua Qing's arms like a wounded fawn and cried for a long time. Even Qin Xingzhi and Liu Qianyun had tears in their eyes.
After crying in her mother's arms for half an hour, Qin Suisui belatedly reached out and touched her belly, her face turning pale: "Where's the baby! Where's my baby!"
Her reaction made everyone else in the ward laugh.
Liu Qianyun then came forward carrying a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes: "Look, this is your and Ayan's daughter. She's fair-skinned and looks exactly like you when you were little!"
"It really is a daughter?!" Qin Suisui was overjoyed.
It is said that a woman's dreams during pregnancy are particularly accurate. When she first became pregnant, she dreamed of a beautiful peacock and firmly believed that she was having a daughter.
But the woman in the family compound insisted that her pointed belly meant she was pregnant with a son.
But Qin Suisui and Pei Jiuyan both wanted a sweet and soft daughter. Now that their dream had come true, she couldn't care less about the pain and took her daughter to examine her carefully.
Although the baby is sleeping with her eyes closed, it's not hard to see that she has beautiful double eyelids, a high nose, and her nose isn't wrinkled like other babies; instead, it's very full.
"Wow! I'm so amazing, I actually gave birth to such a beautiful baby!" Qin Suisui couldn't help but exclaim.
Suddenly, everyone in the room burst into laughter.
Hua Qing laughed while wiping away tears: "Look at what this girl is saying. She's still a child herself, how come she's a mother in the blink of an eye..."
Qin Xingzhi pulled her into his arms: "Wife, no matter how old our daughter is, in our eyes she's still a child..."
While the hospital ward was filled with joy, in the family compound on the other side, Tu Xiaoqi pressed her fingerprint directly onto the document severing ties.
She shoved the five hundred yuan into Old Lady Tu's arms and said angrily, "Here's five hundred yuan. Take this money, put your fingerprint on it, and we'll have nothing to do with each other anymore! And don't come back here to cause trouble for people again!"
Old Mrs. Tu originally didn't think much of this daughter. She was stubborn and not as well-behaved or easy to control as her other daughters, nor was she as pretty. But after marrying Shen Shen, she managed to keep him firmly under her control. Shen Shen treated her even better than he had treated his eldest daughter.
So Old Lady Tu started clinging to her daughter again, coming to her every now and then to ask for things or money.
This time, it was her younger brother Gangzi's family who wanted to build a house and asked her for money. Naturally, she couldn't afford it, so she thought of coming to Tu Xiaoqi.
Just kidding, that's her own younger brother, Tu Xiaoqi's maternal uncle. If her maternal uncle wants to build a house, it's only natural for her, as his niece, to help.
Upon hearing that they were coming to the military compound, her brother's son, the fat guy Shao who knocked Qin Suisui down, immediately wanted to come along. The military compound must be very prestigious! If he could make a few friends there, he'd have face wherever he went!
