It was a good thing that he did this, it eased the tense atmosphere a bit and everyone started laughing.
Zhou's cervix was dilated a little slowly, and even at nightfall her amniotic fluid had not broken. However, the pain was so severe that she didn't even have the energy to speak, and her forehead was covered in sweat.
One after another, other members of the Xiao family returned and all ran to guard Zhou's door.
The Xiao family hasn't had a new life born in many years. The last one was Yuan Ge'er. Everyone is looking forward to the arrival of these two little lives.
In the room, there were only Xiao's mother, Aunt Jinxiu, and two midwives. The rest of the people were driven out.
I’m afraid that if too many people stay inside, the air will not flow smoothly.
In fact, when Xiao Qin saw this kind of birth scene, he still felt a little traumatized, because Yuan Ge'er's mother died of heavy bleeding during childbirth.
He is still unforgettable about that scene, it was covered in blood and had a strong smell of rust. Yuan Ge'er's mother was still alive at the time, and when she held his hand, her eyes were full of reluctance and helplessness.
Hearing Zhou's screams while giving birth inside, Xiao Qin's back felt cold and numb, and his face turned a little pale.
But Song Wan was so considerate that she understood him and could sympathize with him, so she said to him:
"Take Xuxu to Brother Yuan's place. Children should not watch these things. I will be the one guarding here."
When Xiao Qin saw his wife speaking softly and smiling tenderly to him, he immediately realized that she understood him.
So Xiao Qin took Xuxu and left temporarily.
Xiao Mian was walking around there, pacing back and forth, and Xiao Yi felt like his head was dizzy because of him.
"Brother, please move a chair and sit down. You've made me dizzy."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mian glared at him and retorted:
"There's the day you become a father."
His wife was suffering in there giving birth to a child for him, how could he not be anxious?
Just wait, little brat, this day will come sooner or later, and then you'll see how I vilify you.
Xiao Mian complained silently in his heart.
Zhou had already started to push under the guidance of the midwife. She was in so much pain, a tearing pain, as if her body was being crushed by something.
She couldn't stand it anymore and started to cry out.
When Xiao Lanlan heard the sound outside, she couldn't help but hug her fourth sister-in-law's hand tightly.
"Fourth sister-in-law, is giving birth so scary?"
When her ex-sister-in-law gave birth to a child, she was still young. Xiao's mother wanted her to avoid suspicion, so she sent her to the neighbor's house next door. When she came back, she heard that her ex-sister-in-law was gone.
So, it was the first time that she felt so directly the shock of giving birth.
My mother said that giving birth is something every woman must experience in her life, but it sounds so painful.
"You just feel scared now. When you become a mother yourself, all you will feel is happiness," Jiang Sui comforted.
She was not afraid of the pain of childbirth. She was mainly worried that the medical conditions in ancient times were backward, and if something unexpected happened, it would really be an accident.
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly felt a force on her shoulder. Xiao Hechuan came back at some point and put his hand on her shoulder.
After school, he stayed with the teacher for a while, and then accepted Su Yanqing's invitation to have dinner with him, so he came back late.
He doesn't do this often, just occasionally.
It was only after he came back that he found out that Zhou was giving birth, so he hurried over.
"You're back? What did you do so late?"
In fact, Jiang Sui usually doesn’t ask because she trusts him and knows he won’t mess around outside, but now she suddenly wants to ask.
"I had dinner with Su Yanqing and talked about some things, so I came back late." Xiao Hechuan answered truthfully.
When Xiao Lanlan heard Su Yanqing's name, her heart began to pound and her face became hot.
She thought, what could the fourth brother have to talk about with him? When did they become so close?
But she didn't ask any more questions. After all, there must be a reason for what Fourth Brother did.
It was feared that Zhou would not be able to give birth for a while, so everyone waited anxiously, and the wait lasted until almost midnight.
When Zhou was halfway through giving birth, she had no strength left and had to rely on the wild ginseng slices brought by Mr. Qin to sustain her strength.
Finally, she cooperated with the midwife and successfully gave birth to her first child.
Finally, the baby's first cry was heard in the room, and the people outside were very excited.
The first one was born successfully, so the second one would be born soon. In about ten minutes, the second one came out.
When Zhou heard that her two children were born successfully, she used her last bit of strength to ask Xiao's mother who was standing by her side:
"Mom, how are the children? Are they all right?"
Mother Xiao was overjoyed. Looking at the two healthy little ones, she smiled and replied:
"Yuemei, you've worked hard. The children are all fine. They are twins, a boy and a girl. The one who came out first is the brother, and the one who came out later is the sister!"
"Oh, what a blessing! We are born with twins, a boy and a girl!"
The midwife has delivered twins several times, and it is rare to see twins, a boy and a girl. Some gave birth to a pair of girls, and some gave birth to a pair of sons. In short, the probability of twins, a boy and a girl, is still not high.
So, their family is blessed.
Hearing that her children were all healthy, Zhou finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell into a sound sleep.
When Xiao Mian heard the crying of two children outside, he was so excited that he rushed to the door, as if he wanted to peek through the crack in the door to see what was going on inside.
Not long after, the door finally opened, and Xiao's mother walked out with her eyes narrowed into slits while smiling.
"It's born, twins, boy and girl, both the adult and the child are safe!"
As long as you are safe, as long as you are safe.
Everyone in the Xiao family breathed a sigh of relief, and Xiao Mian even burst into tears.
It was as if a string that had been stretched to its limit had finally loosened. The first thing he did when he entered the room was not to look at the child, but to look at his wife. Seeing her sitting there quietly with her eyes closed, his heart skipped a beat.
Aunt Jinxiu saw this and was afraid that he might misunderstand her, so she quickly explained:
"Madam is too tired to have any strength and has fallen asleep. She is fine. Second Master, please go and look at the child!"
The two babies have been bathed and swaddled, and are now sleeping peacefully.
Xiao Mian looked at the two children. The older brother was swaddled in a dark green blanket, while the younger sister was swaddled in a pink blanket. The two little ones looked almost exactly the same.
It’s just that my younger sister was born a little later and stayed in my mother’s belly for too long, so her little face is purple and red.
Xiao Mian shed tears of emotion again. He...finally became a father!
Because the baby had just been born, it was inconvenient for the men to come in, so only Jiang Sui and a few other women came in to take a look.
After making sure that both adults and children were safe, and after hugging their children one by one, they returned to their rooms and went to sleep with peace of mind.
