After Zhou Quan came in, everyone wanted to kick him out.
Zhao said helplessly, "Xiaoquan, this is the delivery room. What are you doing in here? Get out quickly. Your mother is here and won't let anything happen to Xiaomai."
Zhou Quan shook his head, went directly to Li Mai's side, squatted down, took her hand, and whispered in her ear, "Xiaomai, can you still hold on?"
If she couldn't hold on, he planned to use his spiritual power to help her.
Upon hearing his voice, Li Mai's mind cleared instantly. She turned to look at him in disbelief, "You, you're back? Are you alright?"
Zhou Quan shook his head, "I'm fine, everything's taken care of. I'll tell you the details after you give birth."
Li Mai glanced at him, but her mind was a little muddled at the moment. She didn't notice anything unusual about Zhou Quan. Seeing that he was fully clothed, she was relieved and replied with a "okay".
Just as she finished saying "okay," another wave of pain struck. She was alright, but it took her a while to bear it. In the beginning, she was too weak to shout out because of the pain.
Seeing that her face was pale with pain and covered in cold sweat, Zhou Quan quickly took the hot towel his mother handed him and wiped the sweat from her face.
After Li Mai recovered from the pain, Zhou Quan leaned closer to her and whispered, "If you can't hold on, I'll use my spiritual power to help you?"
“No, let the children be born naturally. Too much intervention will affect their health later in life.” Li Mai shook her head. “Give me some water.”
Zhou Quan took the warm water from the bowl and fed her with a small spoon.
This water is from a sacred spring. Li Mai drank a bowl of it every day beforehand and saved up a small jar of it, just in preparation for when she gave birth.
While Li Mai was not in pain, Zhou Quan fed her two steamed buns that the kitchen had just steamed, which Zhao had ordered as soon as she returned.
Zhou Tao was in the kitchen helping to boil water and then carrying it into the house.
The eldest sister-in-law's delivery couldn't have any mistakes, so she personally oversaw everything her sister-in-law used in the kitchen.
My mother said that seeing how nervous my older brother and the others had been these past few days, she guessed they were worried that someone might cause trouble while my sister-in-law was giving birth, so she took the initiative to go and keep an eye on the kitchen.
Fortunately, another hour later, Li Mai's abdominal pain became more intense and didn't stop at all. The midwife said that the baby's head was showing.
Zhou Quan immediately tensed up.
After drinking the spiritual spring water several times, Li Mai had much more strength. At the hour of Xu (7-9 PM), her first child was born.
The first child was a girl.
When the baby was just born, Zhou Quan's lips twitched. His daughter had already awakened fire-type superpowers at birth?
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the second child was born. It was a boy, which was good. He had water-based superpowers and was born with them.
Just like when I was born, I was born with dual superpowers.
However, unlike the two children, I was born in the form of a beast, and only later cultivated my human form.
What sets the other two children apart is that they only awakened one special ability at birth, and were not dual-elemental beings. This means that they did not inherit the divine beast bloodline from their father god.
This also relieved Zhou Quan.
The two children were born, and they were twins, a boy and a girl. Everyone was overjoyed. Outside, everyone who was supposed to come had arrived, including Yun Chang and Xu Changhuan, who had just returned that evening.
Old Man Zhou, Zhou Lei, Zhuzhu, Magpie, and even Xu Yue and Lu Qian were there.
Even Zhou Heng, after finishing work, heard that Li Mai had given birth today and rushed over.
When Zhao came out and told the crowd the good news, everyone burst into laughter.
Great, that's wonderful. My brother and sister-in-law are truly blessed.
Zhuzhu was even more eager to see her younger brother and sister. She happily told the magpie several times that her mother was amazing, giving birth to both her younger brother and sister at once.
By this time, Li Mai had been cleaned up by the midwives, changed into clean clothes and bedding, and was now asleep with her eyes closed.
Zhao and Zhou Tao were looking after the two children.
Zhou Quan sat down next to Li Mai, held her hand, and slowly channeled his spiritual energy into her to warm her body.
Even though Li Mai was already asleep, her face was still very pale.
After opening the windows to ventilate the room and dissipate the stench of blood, Zhou Tao added some incense. Once the room was free of other smells, Zhao invited everyone to come in and see the child and Xiaomai.
Everyone took turns coming in to see the children. Zhuzhu was among the first to excitedly come in to see her younger siblings. She happily covered her mouth and cried out "waaaaa!" several times, telling Zhao that her younger siblings already had black hair right after they were born.
Zhao smiled and accompanied her to see her younger siblings, explaining that by this time next year, she would be able to play with them. Zhuzhu immediately became excited.
After Gu Zhe came in, he went to check on Li Mai first. Seeing her pale face, he felt a little sorry for her and handed two bottles to Zhou Quan.
Zhou Quan took one look and saw that it was spiritual liquid!
This is something from the apocalypse; it seems to have been hidden in the Ancient Ochre Space.
This is even better than ginseng chicken soup.
"Thank you, Uncle!" Zhou Quan said softly.
"This is good for your baby's health. Take it three times a day, one capful each time. If your baby's recovery is slow, you can increase the dosage," Gu Zhe said in a low voice.
"Yes, thank you!" Zhou Quan put the item inside Li Mai's pillow so she could see it when she woke up. Anyone who had lived through the apocalypse would recognize it.
Gu Zhe then turned to look at his two grandsons.
Hmm, she really looks just like my baby when she was first born!
Gu Zhe glanced at the people in the room, pursed her lips, and really wanted to take a picture of the two children when no one was looking, but that would scare these people who had never seen a camera before.
