Now Zhou is almost nine months pregnant. At this stage, twins must be prepared for delivery at any time.
Now Xiao Mian doesn’t dare to sleep in the same bed with me, Zhou, at night, for fear of touching his belly.
His wife's belly is so big that not only Jiang Sui and the others, but even he feels a little nervous when he sees it.
I was worried that if the delivery went wrong, my wife would suffer a lot.
He slept in the next room every day. At night, Aunt Jinxiu would accompany her, help her turn over, and help her get up at night, taking care of her meticulously.
Because of the good care during pregnancy, Zhou became plumper, her face became rounder, her body became bloated, and her calves were swollen every day. No matter whether she was lying, sitting, or standing, her pubic bone was painful.
She has to get up many times to urinate during the night, which is a normal reaction to pregnancy. And she has two children, which makes it even more serious.
The midwife found for her has already moved into the house, and all the delivery tools are ready.
Two rocking beds were also built for the baby to sleep in after he was born. When Aunt Zhou and Aunt Jinxiu had nothing to do, they made their own swaddling clothes and small clothes for the baby at home. They were small and very cute.
The fetal positions of both babies are normal. Someone has checked them a few days ago. When it comes time for delivery, there shouldn't be any unexpected accidents.
Xiao Lanlan was afraid that Zhou's side was short of manpower, so she left Baoxia in the mansion and asked her to help take care of Zhou.
…
It was seven days later when Jiang Sui, Xiao's mother and others received the news of Zhou's attack.
Counting the days, it’s been exactly nine months, and the two little ones can’t wait to come out and see the world.
When she heard that Zhou was about to give birth, Xiao's mother became extremely anxious. She dragged Jiang Sui back and asked Xiao's father to look after the business in the store.
The men couldn't help much, and if they went back they would just be anxious and cause trouble.
However, Xiao Mian still had to inform them. As he was the child's father, he had to be there to witness this great moment of the child's birth, right?
Xiao Mian was originally in the store learning how to use an abacus with Xiao Qin and Xiao Yi when the gardening boy at home came to tell him that the Second Young Master's wife was about to give birth and asked him to return home quickly.
This guy hadn't reacted at that time. He stood there at a loss as to what to do, and his face turned pale with fright.
It was the two brothers who urged him:
"What are you still standing there for? Go home quickly. You're going to be a father soon!"
It was already late afternoon, and the store would be closed in two hours.
Xiao Mian ran home as fast as he could, using his long legs to run as fast as he could. Poor gardening boy, he had a hard time chasing after him.
What I'm saying is, can't the mansion have a carriage or something? After all, there is such a large family business, so running errands can be easier in the future.
Shortly after Zhou finished lunch, Aunt Jinxiu helped her take a walk in the garden.
She always wanted to urinate, and when she went for the fourth time, she found that she had spotting. She was shocked and quickly asked the midwife for advice.
The midwife said that the baby was about to be born and that the pain would probably start soon.
Fortunately, my water didn’t break first, otherwise it would be a bit troublesome.
She didn't feel much at first, and the nanny asked her to eat small amounts of food to conserve her strength, as giving birth was a very physically demanding task.
Having two midwives is not enough. We also have to go to Jishan Hall and invite Mr. Qin to come and take charge so that he can prescribe medicine immediately if there is any emergency.
When Mr. Qin received the news, he did not dare to delay at all. He took his medicine box and medicine boy, prepared all the necessary medicinal materials, and also took a wild ginseng.
If a woman runs out of strength during childbirth, she can keep herself energetic by putting wild ginseng slices in her mouth. The remaining slices can be used to make soup to quickly restore her strength after delivery.
When the contractions first start, you won't feel much pain. At first it's like the slight stinging pain you feel when you have your period.
As the pelvis expands, the contractions will become more intense and the time between them will shorten.
When the penis was opened to three or four fingers, the pain started to become more and more obvious, and Zhou began to frown.
Aunt Jinxiu told her to endure it as much as possible while she could and conserve her energy to deal with the big project later.
Giving birth requires the most energy. Don't waste your energy on crying out in pain.
Since Zhou has no experience, it will always do him good to listen to other people's opinions.
When Xiao's mother and Jiang Sui came back, Zhou was already feeling obvious pain, with beads of sweat on her forehead.
She didn't lie down, but was supported by Aunt Jinxiu and walked back and forth in the room. The midwife said that the baby would be born faster this way.
This was her first child, and she had two, so it would definitely be slower than those women who had given birth before.
Seeing her daughter-in-law like this, Xiao's mother felt really distressed. On the one hand, they were all women and could empathize with her. On the other hand, she suffered so much just to give birth to a child for the Xiao family. As her mother-in-law, she could only feel infinite gratitude towards her.
"Yuemei, thank you for your hard work. If you want to eat something, tell me and I will make it for you."
Xiao's mother took a clean handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat off her face, with a look of heartache.
Zhou smiled and shook her head. She had just eaten something and couldn't eat anymore.
A few days ago, Xiao's mother asked Grandma Liang to collect eggs for her from the farm. She wanted to collect as many eggs as possible, and she wanted to save them for Zhou to eat during her confinement.
She also bought more than a dozen free-range chickens from the farm in the backyard, all of which were hens, and prepared them for Zhou to eat during her confinement. In addition to these, she also prepared brown sugar, angelica, wolfberry, and various medicinal herbs that are nourishing and help women recover. This shows how much she cares about her daughter-in-law.
Having a mother-in-law like Xiao's mother is such a blessing and great luck. Other mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law dislike each other every day, but the Xiao family is the most harmonious and the whole family is happy every day.
This is also thanks to the fact that Xiao's mother was very fair and did not give her daughter-in-law any room for criticism.
When Xiao Mian rushed back, he was sweating all over his forehead. He rushed into the room, but he was not paying attention and his foot tripped over the threshold, and he almost fell down.
Everyone in the room was frightened by him, and Zhou was even more frightened and trembled.
"Wife, I'm back. How are you? Are you in pain?"
Xiao Mianren had just stood up when his eyes were filled with his wife. He rushed over, put his hand on her shoulders and looked her up and down. Her belly was still so big, so he knew she hadn't given birth yet.
Zhou patted her heart with her hand and gave him a scolding look:
"You are such a grown-up, yet you are still so reckless. You are a joke. You are so jumpy that the child was almost scared to death by you!"
"It's my fault, it's my fault, I will be more careful next time!" Xiao Mian hurriedly admitted his mistake.
