Thinking of the scenes of foreign invasion in those historical dramas, Xu Bai was a little worried. This was going to be a real fight, not just a movie. People would really die. His father was the magistrate of this small border town, and he would lead the people of this town to resist the invasion of the Northern Di people. His mother was a doctor, and she would also stay here to save lives. Even his gentle older sister and his decisive future sister-in-law were starting to prepare for resistance.
Xu Bai was a little worried. He knew that his birth time was approaching, and he didn't want to be born at this time, as it would really cause trouble for many people.
The war had finally begun. Xu Bai listened to the commotion outside with trepidation, feeling his heart pounding faster and faster. His brother and father had already climbed the city wall. He heard that the Northern Di had brought a wheeled wooden fish-shaped siege tower, a formidable weapon for attacking cities. As a young man of the new era, who hadn't read some action-packed novels? Xu Bai knew what a fish-shaped siege tower was from a time-travel novel. It seemed that the Northern Di were determined to take this county town.
Xu Bai heard his mother calmly examining the wounds of the injured people and instructing them to send them to a doctor for further treatment. He also heard his brother come over and say that they were preparing to evacuate, letting the Northern Di people in to trap them. Xu Bai also felt his brother gently patting him, telling him to stay calm and wait until everyone was safe before coming out. Xu Bai dared not move, afraid that if he moved too much, he would come out prematurely.
Xu Bai could feel his mother's hurried footsteps. Slowly, Xu Bai felt himself falling. He was very scared. He was afraid that he would put his mother in danger because of him. He tried his best to control himself and not fall, but he felt that his lower body was becoming looser and looser. He could no longer hold on.
Ultimately, he was going to give birth halfway through the process. Xu Bai slowly gathered his strength, but after working hard for a long time, he still couldn't get the amniotic fluid out. He was very anxious because the amniotic fluid was decreasing. If this continued, he would suffocate.
Xu Bai felt someone pushing him down from the outside. He could vaguely hear Granny Lu telling his mother not to sleep. Xu Bai knew that his mother had been busy saving people all day while heavily pregnant. If he didn't get out quickly, the two of them would be in real danger.
Xu Bai held his breath and squeezed outwards with all his might until he was exhausted. Only then did he feel the restraints around him suddenly disappear, followed by a bone-chilling cold.
As soon as Xu Bai opened his mouth, a loud baby's cry was heard. Thinking that the sound would attract the enemy's attention, Xu Bai dared not cry anymore, quickly closed his mouth, and tightly closed his eyes. He was just too tired.
After a quick wash, she was wrapped in a thick quilt and handed over to Miss Li. Miss Li told her to take her to Yanmen Pass to meet her sister, saying that her mother was still unable to move. Miss Li then carried her and ran towards Yanmen Pass.
Xu Bai wanted to stay with his mother, but he was just a newborn baby and would only be a burden to others if he stayed. It would be better to go to a safe place and wait for his loved ones to come and join him.
Xu Bai was in a daze, wondering about his father and brother. They needed to lure the Northern Di people into the city before they could leave. His brother had told their mother that his guards were very skilled in martial arts, and he hoped that they were indeed highly skilled and could safely lead his father and brother out of the city.
When I woke up again, as soon as I moved, I heard my older sister say, "My little brother moved! Aunt Li, is he awake?"
Xu Bai knew this Aunt Li; she was his brother's mother-in-law.
Madam Li looked at him and said, "I guess he peed. Let me see." Then she felt someone unwrapping her baby blanket. Thinking that her privacy was about to be violated, Xu Bai became anxious and wanted to protest, but what came out was the sound of a baby crying. When Xu Bai was lying naked on her baby blanket, she couldn't hold it in any longer and urinated a stream of warm urine.
When Madam Li saw this, she quickly covered Xu Bai with the diaper she had placed under him. After Xu Bai finished urinating, she changed the diaper. The older sister next to her said, "Auntie, please teach me how to change my brother's diaper. I want to help my mother take care of my brother from now on."
Madam Li explained to Xu Zhi in detail, saying, "Your younger brother is truly a blessed child. He was born into a good family and is loved by his parents and pampered by his older brothers and sisters."
Xu Bai heard his sister say with a smile, "Auntie, you haven't told us yet, your sister-in-law also spoils you."
Madam Li smiled and said, "That's true. Your sister-in-law practically watched her little brother-in-law being born. She'll really have to take care of him as he grows up with you. He's a chubby little guy, a lucky fellow."
Xu Bai was initially a little embarrassed and annoyed, but when he heard Madam Li say that about him, he felt happy. He had been living alone for a long time and longed for a loving family to accompany him and live a lively life. Now his dream had come true, which was truly a happy thing.
Xu Bai heard his sister say worriedly, "I wonder how Mother is. Sister Li said Mother was coming soon, but she hasn't come yet."
Madam Li comforted her, "With Granny Lu leading the way, everything will be alright. Just relax and wait, your mother will be here soon."
Xu Bai felt hungry and called out several times. When Madam Li saw this, she sighed and said, "He's probably hungry. Let's give him some water first, and then he can breastfeed when his mother comes."
