Unable to drive Fengjiu away, the village chief immediately glared at her. His family was already miserable enough, and now a young girl with no known background came to cause trouble and bring bad luck.
Do you think he's crazy enough to be bullied? The village chief picked up his shoes and tried to attack him.
But at this moment, a middle-aged woman dressed in a proper manner came out of the room and said, "Let her in."
Her hair was combed meticulously, and her eyes were slightly red, but her face looked calm.
"Mother-in-law?" Why bother tormenting someone when you know there's no hope? The village chief didn't understand.
Even if you have to try your best, you should find a more reliable old doctor, right?
The middle-aged woman turned out to be the mother of the woman who had just given birth. She didn't explain much, but instead made a gesture of invitation towards Fengjiu, "Please."
Fengjiu followed his instructions and hurried in.
The delivery room was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the atmosphere was sad and solemn. The woman in labor on the bed was breathing in more than out and was unconscious.
Her husband knelt in front of the bed, crying and holding her hand tightly, refusing to let go, as if he was holding on to the last glimmer of hope.
Four maids stood by with solemn expressions, cleaning up the dirty blood from the woman in labor, but they also gave up helping with the delivery and just waited for the woman to die so that they could tidy up her appearance.
When they saw Fengjiu, the ugly and young girl, come in, they all frowned tightly. Is this the new midwife?
I've never seen or heard of it, but what did Madam Sun think? Did she think such a little girl could save her daughter's life from the devil?
Fengjiu ignored these people and focused on the woman in labor. She immediately turned on all the gynecological instruments in the space and conducted various examinations.
First, she measured the woman's heart rate. It had slowed down. Fengjiu took out surgical gowns and masks from her medicine box and put them on. She also took out silver needles from her cloth bag and said, "Everyone, get out of the way. Ten feet away."
Fengjiu's face was serious and solemn. Holding a long silver needle, she urged the people surrounding the bed to leave.
"Huh? Little girl, you know acupuncture? But you have never taken a pulse, how do you know how to insert the needle? It's too late, alas..." At this time, even if Hua Tuo were alive, it would be useless. An old doctor shook his head and sighed, not optimistic about Fengjiu at all.
"Miss, how is it?" Madam Sun tried hard to block out the doctor's words and not be affected. When she saw Fengjiu take out the silver needle, a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes again.
You know, in today's world, there are very few people who can use silver needles, but they are always effective when used, just like the imperial doctors in the palace.
Fengjiu turned on the ultrasound machine and scanned the mother's belly. The baby was lying feet down with one foot exposed, and the umbilical cord was strangling the baby's neck.
If the foot comes out first, the umbilical cord will not be long enough and it will be uncomfortable for the baby, so the baby does not want to be born and uses the other foot to block the cervix.
In fact, this is just the child's instinctive self-rescue. He just wants to stay in a comfortable way, but of course he doesn't know that if he does this, both mother and child will die.
"There's hope, get out of the way!" The situation is urgent and we must race against time because the baby in my belly is also struggling due to lack of oxygen.
"Get out of the way!" Mrs. Sun ignored etiquette and directly pulled her mother-in-law and son-in-law apart.
"You're just kidding! The child's exposed feet are all purple and blue. How could he possibly be saved..."
"Yeah, he was struggling quite hard at first, but now he's not moving much..."
"The fetus is in an abnormal position. The mother is almost dying. It's impossible for her to give birth so quickly..."
So it was a dead end, and several midwives were discussing it.
Doesn't this ugly girl know about Madam Sun's background? If she really kills someone with this treatment, it will be a huge problem...
But it just so happens that the responsibilities on them can be completely handed over to the ugly girl.
Fengjiu blocked out the surrounding noise and inserted the sterilized long needle directly into the woman's head. Her technique was swift, fierce and accurate.
This immediately caused gasps from all around. The husband of the woman in labor wanted to step forward to stop her, but Madam Sun pushed him back, preventing him from disturbing Fengjiu.
Her whole body was shaking, and the string in her heart was stretched tight.
Fengjiu stimulated the woman's brain, allowing her to regain consciousness, and then used another silver needle to insert it into her chest through her clothes to stimulate her heartbeat.
"My dear, can you hear me? Your baby is almost here, just a little bit longer. Don't give up."
After the injection, Fengjiu took out medical surgical gloves and put them on. She rubbed the woman's stiff face and encouraged her.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Let me check on the baby first. When I tell you to push, just cooperate. You're a good mother, don't be afraid."
After Fengjiu finished speaking, she took out some spiritual spring water from the medicine box and fed her some of it, as well as some ginseng dew to keep her alive.
As the smell of the medicine wafted out, the whole room became filled with enthusiasm, surprising everyone. This ugly girl seemed to be really simple.
Fengjiu lifted up the skirt of the woman in labor. Seeing this, the old doctor turned around hurriedly, but he was very curious and wanted to see what the ugly girl was doing.
Fengjiu first waved towards Madam Sun, "Madam, you can go and talk to her." She had to divert the woman's attention before she could take action.
Madam Sun nodded happily, because although Fengjiu's actions looked rough and brutal, her daughter was obviously awake, her heartbeat was stronger, and even her breathing was much smoother.
"My daughter, it's okay. I've got a miracle doctor for you. The baby will be born soon. Both mother and child will be safe."
Although she said this, Mrs. Sun's voice was trembling, and it was obvious that she herself was not sure.
The woman in labor on the bed nodded, not knowing how many times she had escaped death.
Fengjiu fumbled around the woman's belly for a while. In fact, she was using a machine to monitor the baby. She could see the condition of the baby in the belly clearly. She did this just to deceive others.
Then she slowly stuffed the baby's exposed feet into her belly, reached one hand into the birth canal, stared at the baby's position, and slowly adjusted his direction.
The woman's belly swelled and deflated, making everyone around her shudder. How could this happen?! I've never seen anything like this before. Even animals don't give birth this roughly.
Fengjiu turned the fetus around, loosening the umbilical cord a bit, so that the head was facing downwards towards the cervix. "Alright, follow the contraction pain and try to push!"
Fengjiu took out her bloody hand and gave instructions to the woman in labor.
"Daughter, did you hear that? Use more force..." Madam Sun's face was pale. If this wasn't her own daughter, she would have fainted from fright.
The woman had already regained consciousness, and nodded immediately, using her last bit of strength to endure the pain.
With a random "poof!", she felt her stomach loosen up, and not only the baby but also the feces came out, making the mother feel embarrassed.
However, the family members were very happy, "It's out! It's born!"
"Oh my god!" Was it really born? Everyone saw that the umbilical cord was still wrapped around the baby's neck twice, and the color of its body was wrong.
"Oh, there's something wrong with the baby. He's so blue! He's not crying. Could he be..." A dead baby?!
