When the baby is due for delivery, the water breaks unexpectedly.
Warm amniotic fluid trickled down Ye Nian'an's trouser leg, leaving dark watermarks on the floor.
Fortunately, they had made preparations in advance.
After a brief moment of shock, Meng Sufang and Chi Xinyao quickly recovered.
Having gone through childbirth themselves, they all know the process to some extent.
"Sufang, quick! Go and call the midwife over! I'll help Niannian into the sterilization room inside!"
As Chi Xinyao spoke, she helped Ye Nian'an up.
"Niannian, are you feeling alright now? Does your stomach hurt?"
"I...am I alright?"
Ye Nian'an was a little confused.
She only felt that her pants were soaked with warm amniotic fluid, but she didn't feel any abdominal pain.
I felt as refreshed and clear-headed as if my water hadn't broken yet.
However, this is a good thing.
This means that childbirth will not be too difficult.
"good!"
Meng Sufang rushed to the midwife's house and banged on the door frantically.
"Wang Po, open the door quickly! Nian'an is about to give birth!"
The midwife's family had also received Ye Nian'an's kindness and knew that her due date was in the next few days, so they dared not slack off and rushed to the medical station as soon as they heard the commotion.
"Quickly boil some water!"
"It's already burning!"
Chu Yan had just finished work and came over when he saw others bustling around.
With a sudden pang of anxiety, he immediately abandoned his bicycle and rushed forward to Meng Sufang, who was standing outside, asking, "Comrade Meng Sufang, what happened to my wife?"
"Nian'an is about to give birth! Aunt Yao and the midwife are inside!"
Is she about to give birth?
Chu Yan's heart was pounding in his throat.
Although I had prepared for this long time, it still came as a blow when it happened.
"How...how can I help?"
"Boil water and put a hot towel in."
"good!"
Soon, Chu Zhenyuan and Chu Xin'er also arrived.
Now that everyone knows Ye Nian'an is about to give birth, her safety is of paramount importance.
Upon learning that Ye Nian'an's water had broken, Chu Zhenyuan and Chu Xin'er were extremely anxious.
She wanted to help, but didn't know what to do, so she could only stand aside and pray for Ye Nian'an inside the delivery room.
Chu Yan waited outside the delivery room, looking at the closed door, hesitating back and forth, wanting to go in but afraid of disturbing the midwife, since he was a man and couldn't help even if he went in.
At this moment, he felt extremely regretful for his lack of ability, for being able to only anxiously watch from the outside during Ye Nian'an's most crucial time.
"Chu Yan, calm down. Niannian hasn't made any movement inside, which is a good thing. Some people have a smoother childbirth process with almost no burden."
Chu Zhenyuan had lived for so many years, and even as a man, he had heard quite a few things.
With Ye Nian'an's strong physique, even if childbirth is tiring, she will not encounter difficult situations such as being unable to give birth or needing a cesarean section.
"Dad, are you telling the truth?"
Chu Yan was extremely worried, and so was Chu Xin'er.
The reason I keep asking questions now is simply to put my mind at ease.
Chu Zhenyuan nodded emphatically: "Of course it's true!"
Meng Sufang chimed in, "Yes, my third brother's wife's childbirth went very smoothly, so you don't need to worry. There's no noise coming from inside right now, which is a good thing!"
At that moment, sounds finally came from inside the delivery room.
All I could hear was the midwife saying, "Push! Push! We can see the baby's head! One's out, now for the second! The third one's coming out too!"
Everyone was stunned.
Ye Nian'an had previously guessed that she might be carrying three babies.
I never imagined it was actually true!
Moreover, compared to Meng Sufang's arduous two-hour ordeal, which nearly led to her fainting from the pain, Ye Nian'an delivered her three children in just half an hour.
There was absolutely no pressure.
The midwife placed the three children in a basket that had been prepared beforehand. After Chi Xinyao helped Ye Nian'an clean up the mess and change her clothes, Chu Yan and the others were allowed to come in.
Upon hearing this news, Chu Yan was like a tiger released from its restraints, and he rushed into the delivery room.
He didn't have time to see the children; his only worry now was his wife's safety.
Ye Nian'an used a pillow as a backrest and sat half-upright on the bed.
Although he had sweated a lot, soaking his whole body and hair, his eyes were still bright and he didn't look tired.
Chu Yan walked over and took Ye Nian'an's hand, his voice trembling: "Niannian, are you alright?"
"I...am I alright?"
This was also Ye Nian'an's first time giving birth.
Seeing how difficult Meng Sufang's life was before, it would be a lie to say I wasn't worried.
I just didn't expect the birth to be so smooth this time. It was like laying eggs, one after another with every push.
When all three children were born, Ye Nian'an felt as if it were all real.
Was the birth really that simple?
Isn't that too easy and too fast?
Perhaps it was the combination of drinking the spiritual spring water for more than two years and traditional Chinese medicine conditioning that greatly enhanced Ye Nian'an's physique.
She also learned self-defense techniques and Tai Chi from Chu Yan, and would practice them on her own in her spare time to recuperate.
If you are in good physical condition, childbirth will not be so difficult.
Chu Yan tenderly smoothed Ye Nian'an's hair and said softly, "Niannian, take a good rest."
Ye Nian'an shook her head: "I'm full of energy right now, so I probably won't be able to sleep. I want to check on the children first."
