Chapter 56 Giving birth
In the previous life, the person who found these two midwives was Old Madam Yan, but in this life, Old Madam Yan is paralyzed. Logically speaking, the people Lin Hongrong found may not be the same as the two midwives in the previous life.
There are many good midwives in the capital, but these two are slightly famous in this area. To say they are the best is completely an exaggeration.
Qin Mingzhu looked at the two midwives thoughtfully. She had chosen to return to the Marquis' Mansion to give birth this time. Firstly, because Old Madam Yan was paralyzed and the threat was greatly reduced, and also because...
The child’s biological father was also there.
After Yan Fengxiao moved into the Marquis' Mansion openly, even though they lived in their own courtyards on weekdays, Qin Mingzhu still felt very safe.
In his previous life, Yan Fengxiao left the capital during this period, but in this life, Yan Fengxiao used the excuse that Old Madam Yan was seriously ill to postpone the time the emperor arranged for him to leave the city.
She had already changed so much of the past, and she really wanted to know if anything would happen to the baby on the day of her birth...
Of course, she couldn't risk the safety of herself and her child. In fact, the midwife who would deliver her baby had been secretly prepared by Yan Fengxiao, and she was now living in a restaurant not far from the Marquis' Mansion.
Qin Mingzhu raised her eyes and glanced at Lin Hongrong.
"Did you invite these two?"
Lin Hongrong was stunned for a moment, seemingly unaware of anything, and replied, "Sister-in-law, the old lady has been talking about inviting these two here for a long time, and I've naturally heard about it, so I'm willing to spend a lot of money to invite them here to ensure that everything is safe."
What the other party said was very appropriate.
It seems like he is thinking about Qin Mingzhu everywhere.
Even though Lin Hongrong is now in charge of the rear house of the Marquis' Mansion, she still treats her with a humble attitude, which is no different from the way she treated her before.
Qin Mingzhu frowned.
To put it bluntly, although what Lin Hongrong said made sense, the coincidence of this matter made her doubt her second brother's wife.
It would be fine if she didn't know what happened on the day of her delivery in her previous life. There was nothing unusual about Lin Hongrong's explanation.
However, since she already knew the result, she couldn't help but feel wary when she saw these two people again.
"Sister-in-law, if you are not satisfied with these two, I can ask for other midwives."
Qin Mingzhu shook her head: "No need, just the two of them will do."
The two midwives immediately showed surprise on their faces and knelt down to pay their respects to Qin Mingzhu.
"Don't worry, Madam Hou, we two old servants will do our best to protect you and your child!"
"Back off."
Qin Mingzhu waved her hand.
Lin Hongrong immediately called the servants and took the two midwives to the guest room next door to rest.
After everyone left, she moved closer to Qin Mingzhu and whispered, "The old lady's illness won't be cured so quickly. The Marquis's wife promised me..."
Qin Mingzhu raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this: "What's the matter?"
Hearing Qin Mingzhu say this, Lin Hongrong's face froze obviously.
The corners of her lips moved, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
Qin Mingzhu seemed to have just remembered something. "Oh, you want to send your brother to the Imperial College? That's easy. After the baby in my belly is born and I recover a little, I will take you to see a scholar in the Imperial College. With his recommendation, your chances of getting in will be much higher."
She didn't lie about this matter.
General Qin had a close relationship with this scholar from the Imperial Academy.
Although it is not that easy to enter the Imperial College, as the child must be of good age, have good character and be talented, he does have some places to recruit students.
In her previous life, she used this connection to send Yan Yunrui in.
No matter what, he is a direct descendant of the Marquis's Mansion and has status. As long as he hires a good teacher to teach him and passes the exam, he can successfully enroll in school.
Hearing Qin Mingzhu's sincerity, Lin Hongrong immediately smiled.
"Thank you very much, sister-in-law. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
"good."
Qin Mingzhu watched Lin Hongrong leave.
Her fingers tapped lightly on the table.
In the previous life, Lin Hongrong did not mention this matter on her own initiative. This time, things have changed a lot, but Qin Mingzhu likes this change.
As for whether Lin Hongrong's brother can enter the Imperial College, it depends on how well she does next.
This time, she not only has to protect her children, but also has to find out the mastermind behind the plot against her in her previous life!
…
Three days passed in a flash.
Just after noon that day, Qin Mingzhu felt waves of pain in her lower abdomen.
Qin Mingzhu, who had been counting the hours and calculating the time, immediately understood what had happened.
Chunhua, who had been guarding her, saw the liquid under Qin Mingzhu's skirt and shouted loudly.
"Someone come quickly, the Marquis's wife is about to give birth!"
Almost the next moment the voice was shouted.
All the servants in the mistress's courtyard of the Marquis' Mansion began to get busy.
A large pot of hot water had been prepared in the kitchen long ago. The two midwives who had been staying there for two or three days were led to the door of a room in the main courtyard by Qiuyue, another maidservant of Qin Mingzhu.
The two midwives were not familiar with the layout of the courtyards in the marquis's mansion.
After turning left and right, I almost got lost.
Qiuyue stood at the door and looked at the two midwives and said, "Come here, search me."
"yes!"
Several maids guarding the yard immediately stepped forward and grabbed the package and box from the midwife's hands.
One of the midwives quickly shouted, "Be careful! There are many things in there that you can't touch with your hands. If something gets contaminated, it'll be bad for your health!"
Qiuyue and other servants in the marquis's mansion ignored her.
Seeing that no one paid any attention to her, the midwife could only let others look through the things in her box without saying a word.
After a while.
"Nothing suspicious."
Qiuyue glanced at the two midwives.
"Search them to prevent assassins from sneaking in."
The expressions of the two midwives changed instantly.
However, the two of them were completely surrounded.
They had no way to resist in the hands of so many people and could only allow themselves to be searched thoroughly from head to toe.
The midwife's face was very ugly, and Qiuyue was satisfied and said, "Okay, you guys go in."
The door was finally opened.
Two midwives walked into the room one after the other.
The room was quite spacious, with a light fragrance wafting through the air.
The two of them ran towards the direction of the bed. The curtains had been dropped, and the figure inside could not be seen at all.
For some reason, the two midwives always felt that something was wrong in the room.
There was no wailing from the woman in labor, and few servants entered the house. The group of people guarding outside the door had cold and serious expressions, blocking the entrance tightly.
"Marquis... Madam Marquis?"
One of the midwives asked.
Her surname was Li, and she happened to be the midwife Li whom the old lady had once praised.
No one answered.
The two of them took a look inside the room, then at the tightly closed door. They were frightened and could only move their feet slowly as they walked inside.
Suddenly, the curtain was pulled open.
A figure suddenly appeared on the bed.
The moment they saw that figure, the two midwives were so frightened that their eyes widened and they almost fell to the ground.
