The conversation between Dong Hao and Bai Xiruo somehow got out. Of course, in the end, Dong Hao didn't take away Bai Xiruo's clothes. It's said that Bai Xiruo came back crying that day, her eyes full of grievance.
Qin Xiaoxiao thought that Bai Xiruo might have been seriously hurt by Dong Hao, but the male and female protagonists were destined partners, and unless something unexpected happened, they would eventually get back together.
Qin Xiaoxiao was happy to be the unexpected one; as long as the female lead was unhappy, she would be happy.
However, Qin Xiaoxiao now believes that Dong Hao has no feelings for Bai Xiruo, and the two of them will probably have a long way to go before they get together. But will she give Bai Xiruo that time? The answer is no.
The male lead is already together, what's the point of her playing around? She's about to lose her life, how can she pretend to be in an "accident"?
Meanwhile, Bai Xiruo's encounter with Dong Hao also made Qin Xiaoxiao very wary. She hadn't forgotten that she still had one last death to face, and the cause of that death was a wild boar.
Therefore, Qin Xiaoxiao hasn't left the house these days. She also told the Qin family that she was too pregnant to move around and that they didn't need to call her for meals, as Su Lu would prepare the food in the morning before going to work.
Grandma Qin was worried, so while helping to take care of Su Yun, she also personally made two trips a day to see Qin Xiaoxiao. Qin Ye was also worried about Grandma Qin, so he would accompany her every time she came.
He came out, and Su Yun became unhappy. Qin Ye couldn't stand her resentful look, so he added Su Yun to the list.
Su Yun was almost six months pregnant. Every time they went out, Qin Ye would carefully support her waist from the side and behind, just like a servant. His cautious and nervous attitude made Old Madam Qin reluctant to go out.
Once outside, Su Yun was as cheerful as a prisoner being let out for a break, wanting to run around the educated youth compound twice, which scared Qin Ye so much that his face turned pale.
Qin Xiaoxiao watched the young couple bickering as if it were a spectacle, laughing so hard her eyes were practically closed.
See? It still takes her to step in. Otherwise, if Zhou Ying takes over now, will the Qin family still have any good days?
How could her brother be laughing so happily!
Qin Xiaoxiao waited at home for half a month, but the wild boar did not come down from the mountain, and she was about to give birth.
Halfway through January, the night before Qin Xiaoxiao was to go to the hospital to give birth, she woke up in the middle of the night needing to urinate. She nudged Su Lu beside her and said, "Honey, I need to go to the toilet. I can't hold it anymore."
Ever since Qin Xiaoxiao became pregnant, Su Lu hasn't dared to sleep soundly at night. Over time, he's developed a light sleeper, and Qin Xiaoxiao can wake him up at the slightest noise. (Light sleeper: not in deep sleep, easily awakened by the slightest sound. Just to clarify for those who might not understand.)
Su Lu quickly got up, not even bothering to put on his clothes, and carried the chamber pot in from the outer room and placed it on the ground. He then helped Qin Xiaoxiao get off the bed and put on her shoes.
Qin Xiaoxiao had just stood still and hadn't even taken her next step when she suddenly stopped moving, and then a stream of water flowed down her trouser leg.
Qin Xiaoxiao looked down and then looked up at Su Lu blankly. "Honey, I think I wet my pants."
After she finished speaking, Qin Xiaoxiao's face turned bright red, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
She's so old and still wets her pants; she's really getting worse as she gets older.
Su Lu was also taken aback, then smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll find you some pants. Change them quickly, it's chilly, don't catch a cold."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Xiaoxiao's expression turned sour.
"What's the matter?"
Qin Xiaoxiao raised her hand to stop Su Lu from asking any more questions, and said softly with a frown, "My stomach hurts, I might be going into labor."
Upon hearing this, Su Lu was immediately terrified and paced back and forth in the small room. "She's going into labor? What should we do? What should we do? We haven't even been to the hospital yet. I should have gone to the hospital to prepare for delivery today. Xiao Xiao, how are you now? Does your stomach still hurt?"
Just as Qin Xiaoxiao was about to speak, she heard Su Lu start rambling again.
"Of course your stomach hurts, why are you talking nonsense?"
Su Lu slapped himself first, then grabbed Qin Xiaoxiao and tried to rush out, saying, "We're going to the hospital now, right now."
He pulled, but couldn't budge it. Su Lu turned around and looked at Qin Xiaoxiao in confusion.
Qin Xiaoxiao's face darkened, and her eyes widened.
"Are you stupid? You're going out dressed like that in the dead of winter? It's the middle of the night, are you planning to ride your bike to take me to the hospital? Can't you be a little more careful?"
"Don't rush, let me take it one step at a time."
When the time came, Qin Xiaoxiao calmed down. First, she ordered someone to call Mu Jin to come and keep her company, and then she went to the Qin family to call people for help.
Su Lu finally came to his senses, first put on his clothes, then helped Qin Xiaoxiao dress properly, and then ran out to call for help.
Mu Jin was sleeping soundly when Su Lu woke her up. She was a little grumpy when she woke up, but when she heard that Qin Xiaoxiao was about to give birth, she didn't care about anything else and quickly got dressed and went to open the door.
"Go to the Qin family and call for help. I'll take care of things here, Xiaoxiao."
Su Lu agreed and turned to run away.
Mu Jin closed the door, thought for a moment, then opened the door again, went back inside to get a hundred yuan, put it on her person, and then went out to keep Qin Xiaoxiao company.
When they arrived at Qin Xiaoxiao's house, they saw that Qin Xiaoxiao was already wearing her big cotton-padded coat. They were speechless and quickly helped her take the coat off.
"Going out dressed so early will definitely make you catch a cold. What is Su Lu good for? Doesn't he even know this?"
Qin Xiaoxiao was covered in sweat. She took off her coat, breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and smiled at Mu Jin.
"Mu Jin, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you tonight. You won't be getting any sleep tonight."
Mu Jin rolled her eyes at Qin Xiaoxiao, "What are you saying? Even if we were strangers, I would still help you, not just friends. After all, I'm a doctor."
After settling Qin Xiaoxiao in, Mu Jin looked around again, "Have you packed your things? Where did you put them?"
Qin Xiaoxiao raised her chin. "It's in the kang (heated brick bed). The cabinet door isn't locked. Take it yourself."
Mu Jin took off her shoes and climbed onto the kang (heated brick bed). She opened the kangqin (a traditional heated brick bed instrument), took out the package that Ma Dahua had packed earlier, put it aside, and then sat down to talk with Qin Xiaoxiao.
"Don't be nervous. Modern medicine is advanced, you'll be fine. What you need to do now is relax. Come on, do it with me. Inhale, inhale, okay, exhale, exhale all the air out of your chest. Okay, deep breath, relax, don't be nervous, I'm here for you."
Sure enough, after taking a few deep breaths with Mu Jin, Qin Xiaoxiao's tense emotions eased, and her stomach pain subsided.
Before Su Lu and the others arrived, Mu Jin explained to Qin Xiaoxiao how to give birth, how to relax, and how to push in accordance with the doctor's instructions. After listening for a long time, Qin Xiaoxiao only understood half of what was being said and looked completely bewildered.
Seeing this, Mu Jin didn't insist. She thought she would try to go in and see if she could help.
A short while later, Su Lu arrived with Qin Feng and Ma Dahua. Ma Dahua carried the bag, Qin Feng and Su Lu helped Qin Xiaoxiao, and Mu Jin carried two quilts. Finally, they closed and locked the door, and the group quickly left.
After standing outside the courtyard for a while, Qin Ye drove the oxcart over. The group got on the cart, and Mu Jin spread a quilt on the oxcart and let Qin Xiaoxiao lie down on it. Then she covered her with another quilt, and the group headed towards the county hospital under the cover of night.
