Chapter 295 The baby is born!
In the delivery room.
Under the guidance and care of the midwife and nanny, Qin Zhizhi's cervix has dilated to four fingers.
"Young Madam, come and drink some ginseng soup first to conserve your energy. It will take some time for the baby to come out."
The nanny helped Qin Zhizhi up, and a maid immediately fed ginseng soup into Qin Zhizhi's mouth.
"Young Madam, drink a few more sips. This will give you strength for giving birth. Qingliu, have someone bring some ginseng slices."
While feeding Qin Zhizhi ginseng soup, the nanny asked Qingliu to prepare some ginseng slices just in case.
Qin Zhizhi knew that she would need strength to give birth to the baby, and although it was painful, she still insisted on drinking the ginseng soup fed by her nanny.
Qingliu just told her that this was the ginseng that the emperor gave to her aunt.
After Qin Zhizhi drank the ginseng soup, she felt some of her strength restored. With the comfort and guidance of her nanny, Qin Zhizhi slowly figured out the rules of contractions.
The contractions come in waves, each lasting for a short while. As long as you hold on, they will ease for a while.
The nanny and the midwife also secretly admired Qin Zhizhi's patience, thinking, "This is the young lady's first child, and she can actually endure it. It's admirable."
There was no heart-wrenching pain in the delivery room, but the people waiting outside were extremely anxious.
Everyone in the Qin family came. When Mrs. Qin heard that her granddaughter was doing well, her first reaction was that her father-in-law had blessed her granddaughter.
So after coming to the Gu family to make sure her granddaughter was fine, Mrs. Qin returned to the Qin family and asked someone to call her eldest son, second son and third son back home.
She wanted to ask her father-in-law to bless her granddaughter to be safe and give birth to the child smoothly, and the Qin family was willing to pay any price.
Fearing that her father-in-law would ignore her and her sons, Mrs. Qin sent someone to the farm to call Old Man Qin and his two brothers.
She felt that although her granddaughter was the one chosen by her father-in-law, if they asked sincerely, maybe her father-in-law would hear them.
The Qin family all knew about Qin Zhizhi's affairs. After returning home, the Qin Shan brothers and their two children went straight to the ancestral hall and kowtowed to their ancestors.
I just ask my ancestors and grandfather to bless my daughter/niece with safety.
When Gu Jinghuai heard from Xiao Si at home that Qin Zhizhi had gone into labor, he rushed home without even asking for leave.
He kept urging the driver to go faster along the way, and he even regretted coming to work today.
Because he felt uneasy since he got up in the morning. He was worried about Qin Zhizhi all morning, but he didn't expect that it would happen again in the afternoon.
As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the mansion, Gu Jinghuai couldn't even wait for the main gate to open. He got off the carriage and ran into the mansion.
When he ran to the yard, he saw a yard full of people and the quiet delivery room. Gu Jinghuai's legs went weak and he almost knelt down.
Fortunately, Xiao Si next to him was quick to support him.
"Young Master, be careful!"
Gu Jinghuai didn't care about himself at all. After standing firm, he continued to walk towards the delivery room.
"Jinghuai, Zhizhi is fine. Let's wait outside. Don't go in and disturb Zhizhi."
Mrs. Mu held her son Gu Jinghuai, fearing that he would rush in without thinking and affect the midwife's delivery of his daughter-in-law.
"Mom, is Zhizhi really okay?" Gu Jinghuai felt relieved when he heard his mother say that she was fine.
"Yes Jinghuai, Qingliu just came out and said that Zhizhi is doing well."
Old Madam Gu looked at her anxious grandson and spoke to comfort him.
"Jinghuai, your aunt stewed the ginseng that the emperor gave her as a reward. After Zhizhi drank it, she regained a lot of her strength."
The Mu family was grateful to their eldest sister-in-law. After listening to his mother's words, Gu Jinghuai bowed deeply to the eldest princess. "Jinghuai, thank you, aunt!"
"We are all family, Zhizhi's safety is the most important." The eldest princess said with a smile.
Gu Jinghuai kept this kindness in his heart.
The people in the delivery room also heard the noise outside. Qin Zhizhi asked Qingliu to go out and tell them not to worry.
Qingliu is Qin Zhizhi's maid, so she naturally knows how good the relationship between the eldest son and the young lady is. She thinks the eldest son must be very worried.
The door of the delivery room was pushed open, and Gu Jinghuai was the first to rush over.
Seeing that it was Qingliu, Gu Jinghuai asked anxiously, "How is the young lady?"
Qin Liu saluted everyone and then replied, "Young Madam is fine. The midwife and the nanny are both experienced. Young Madam asked this servant to come out and tell you not to worry."
"Qingliu, go in and ask the young lady if I can go in and accompany her?"
Although Qingliu said that his wife was fine, Gu Jinghuai still couldn't help but worry and wanted to go in to accompany his wife.
"My dear, the young lady told you to just wait outside. The midwife and the nanny are here, and everything will go smoothly."
Qingliu felt that the young lady was really amazing. She could even predict what the eldest master was going to say.
"Jinghuai, since Zhizhi said everything went well, let's wait outside."
Zhang also followed suit to persuade her son-in-law. She also wanted to go in and accompany her daughter, but she knew her daughter's temper, so she didn't have to.
Gu Jinghuai looked into the house with a worried look on his face and said to Qingliu, "Take good care of the madam."
Qingliu nodded, then closed the door. Gu Jinghuai stood at the door and refused to leave.
It seemed that only in this way could he get closer to Qin Zhizhi.
The person he regarded as more important than life was now experiencing pain that he could not understand and was giving birth to children for him.
If this sin could be transferred, he hoped he could take all the responsibility for Zhizhi.
In the delivery room, the contractions became more and more frequent. Qin Zhizhi's hair was all wet with sweat. Qin Liu took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off her face.
The midwife and the nanny checked again and found that the cervix was now about eight fingers dilated.
The two of them didn't expect it to be so smooth, and excitedly said to Qin Zhizhi, "Young Madam, hold on a little longer, the baby will be out soon."
Qin Zhizhi nodded firmly. The midwife and the nanny were overjoyed and began to prepare for the delivery.
At this moment, Wanwan was also reporting the condition of her stomach to Qin Zhizhi.
"Master, hold on a little longer. It's already eight fingers wide. Come on, little master, you'll be able to come out soon."
After hearing Wanwan say this, Qin Zhizhi felt completely relieved. She knew clearly what she had to do now.
Just cooperate well with the nanny and midwife, so that the baby can be born.
"Master, when you give birth to the little master, remember to exchange baby items with Wanwan."
Maybe Qin Zhizhi is really fine, and Wanwan has already started to set his sights on the child.
A wave of pain came over her, and Qin Zhizhi had no strength left to say anything.
After about half an hour, the pain became more and more severe, and Qin Zhizhi finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Young Madam, push harder. You can see the baby's head. Adjust your breathing. Push harder, and push harder."
The voices of the midwife and nanny in the delivery room, and Qin Zhizhi's voice were intertwined.
Outside the door, Gu Jinghuai heard Qin Zhizhi's cry of pain, and his nails dug deep into his palms.
Zhang stood beside him and was even more nervous than him. She wanted to comfort her son-in-law, but her trembling hands betrayed her nervousness.
Just when everyone was worried about Qin Zhizhi, a loud cry came from the delivery room.
