About half an hour later, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside, and Wen Sitian, Daya, Erya, Funiu, Lele and others walked in hurriedly.
Xu Jianguo was unable to make it because he was in a meeting at the 937 Institute, but Xu Zhengyang still found Liu Yang by phone and asked him to help convey the message.
After waiting for about another hour, the door of the ward was pushed open again, and Xu Jianguo walked in from outside with Mr. Hu, Xu Ping'an and Xiao Hongdou.
Lin Hongtao couldn't get away for the time being because he had a case to try, but he promised to come over immediately after the matter at the court was concluded.
Because Xu Jianguo arranged for Hu Xiaohui to stay in the obstetrics ward in advance, and all the things a mother needs for delivery have been prepared, so everyone in the Xu family and Grandpa Hu were relatively calm. However, the old man still felt distressed when he looked at his precious granddaughter's pale face.
Xu Zhengyang had also called Hu Zhijun and Tian Guifang to inform them. The couple said on the phone that they would immediately take leave and go to the train station and rush to Jingzhou as quickly as possible.
As Hu Xiaohui's mother-in-law and a mother of three children, Wen Sitian naturally knows that giving birth to a child is like walking through the gates of hell for a woman.
So since she entered the delivery room, she has been sitting by the bed, holding Hu Xiaohui's hand, comforting her in a low voice and encouraging her.
Hu Xiaohui could naturally feel the worry in her mother-in-law's heart. Although every contraction made her feel excruciating pain, she would still hold Wen Sitian's hand and say to her, "Mom, don't worry, I'm fine!"
Daya, Erya and Funniu, the three aunts, also showed concern for their niece-in-law and asked about her well-being. Even Lele and Xiao Hongdou came to the bedside.
Instead, the four old men, Xu Jianguo, Xu Zhengyang, Xu Ping'an and Mr. Hu, seemed to have nothing to do.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Hu Xiaohui's contractions began to become more and more frequent. Looking at the painful expression on his daughter-in-law's face, Xu Jianguo reached into the space in his pocket and took out the Dragon Spirit Needle, and inserted the needles into two acupuncture points behind Hu Xiaohui's ears at the same time.
As the golden needle was inserted, Hu Xiaohui, who was originally in excruciating pain, suddenly felt as if she was soaking in a hot spring. The comfort she had never experienced before made her feel that giving birth did not seem so scary after all.
The reason why Xu Jianguo did not insert gold needles into her at the beginning was actually to make it easier for the obstetrician and gynecologist to observe the condition of the mother in time.
After all, the medical equipment and medicines of this era were not as advanced as those of later generations. Therefore, in the absence of painless injections, doctors would most likely make judgments based on the physical condition of the mother.
In the blink of an eye, it was five o'clock in the afternoon.
Because of Hu Xiaohui, the director of obstetrics did not leave work on time today, but directly led several night shift doctors to the ward.
When they checked Hu Xiaohui again, they found that the woman's cervix was dilated enough for her to be pushed into the delivery room.
However, because of Xu Jianguo's acupuncture, Hu Xiaohui herself did not feel anything.
Afterwards, with the help of doctors, nurses and everyone else, Hu Xiaohui was pushed into the delivery room. Before going in, Xu Zhengyang held his wife's hand and gave her a lot of instructions reluctantly, telling her not to be afraid, as he would be waiting for them outside the delivery room.
Mr. Hu was very satisfied with the performance of his grandson-in-law, and felt very comforted.
While waiting for news outside the delivery room, Xu Jianguo asked Erya, Funiu and Xu Pingan to go to a restaurant outside and buy some food.
The family had a simple dinner. Of course, only Xu Zhengyang didn't eat a single bite. He still stood outside the delivery room like a javelin, waiting for good news.
Neither Xu Jianguo nor Wen Sitian tried to comfort him about his situation. After all, they had gone through the same thing in the past, so the couple felt that this was the responsibility a man should have.
Otherwise, it would be unacceptable for the wife to suffer inside while the husband eats and drinks to his heart's content outside.
…
At 6:37 in the evening, as a loud baby cry came from the delivery room, everyone immediately stood up and gathered around.
A moment later, the door of the delivery room was pushed open, and two nurses came out with smiles on their faces, holding a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes.
"Family of Hu Xiaohui!" one of the nurses shouted.
"I am Hu Xiaohui's lover! How is my wife?" Xu Zhengyang asked immediately.
"The mother and child are in good condition. This is the first one, a boy! The girl and her mother will be out soon, don't worry!"
"Okay, okay, thank you, nurse, thank you!"
When Xu Zhengyang heard what the nurse said, he immediately felt relieved.
The situation of other people was similar to his. At this time, Wen Sitian, who was standing nearby, could not wait to come over, stretched out her hands to take the baby in the nurse's arms, and held it in her arms as if it were a treasure.
Because the baby has been soaked in amniotic fluid for nearly ten months, his skin is a little wrinkled, and his eyes haven't even opened yet.
But even so, Wen Sitian can still see the shadows of her eldest son and daughter-in-law in her grandson's eyes and eyebrows. In short, he is a handsome guy.
The nurse naturally knew the identity of Xu Jianguo's family, so she did not urge them.
A moment later, the door of the delivery room was pushed open again, and the director of obstetrics and several nurses walked out.
