Chapter 74: Enduring Topic



"Okay, sister, I'll go right away!" Huang Yueqiang didn't dare to delay and ran out with the money.

Huang Yueqiang just ran two steps when he remembered something. He stopped and turned around to tell Huang Yuehu in the yard, "Yuehu, take good care of your nephew and remember to boil some hot water."

They used to watch movies in the village, and childbirth scenes were often shown in the movies.

Every time there was a birthing scene, the midwife would ask them to boil some hot water, so the two brothers were deeply impressed.

They don’t know how to do anything else, but both brothers know how to boil water.

"I got it, brother. Go call the midwife quickly and leave everything at home to me." Huang Yuehu helped his sister into the house and closed the door to prevent his little nephews from running around. He then took a large bundle of firewood from the firewood room, went to the kitchen and started to boil the pot.

The Third Production Brigade was a little far from their First Production Brigade, and without a car, Huang Yueqiang took the mountain road and the shortcut to get there.

Along the way, the horse did not stop and ran as fast as a 100-meter sprint.

Villagers who were working on the roadside saw Huang Yueqiang running out of breath on the road and looked at him curiously.

I couldn't help but wonder in my heart: What's wrong with this child? Why can he run so fast?

"Yue Qiang! Yue Qiang!" some villagers shouted, wanting to ask him what happened.

But Huang Yueqiang only heard the sound of wind in his ears and couldn't hear clearly what others were asking.

"I have something urgent to tell you. Come back and tell me." Huang Yueqiang wished he could have eight more legs so that he could run faster. He had no time to stop and chat with others.

"No wonder you didn't stop even though you were sweating profusely. It turns out you have something urgent to do!"

"See he's running towards the Third Squadron, but who is he going to find?"

Logically speaking, if something happens, one should look for the captain of the first brigade. If he runs to the third brigade, he doesn't have any relatives there.

However, the midwives in the third brigade were very skilled, and they delivered many women who had difficulty giving birth.

"Do you think Yue Qiang is going to find a midwife for this child?"

"It's hard to say. I saw his sister a few days ago. Her belly was so big that I felt like she was about to give birth."

"Yueqiang is a really good kid. He knows how to feel sorry for his sister, and he ran so fast."

Half an hour later, Huang Yueqiang really brought Aunt Wang back.

"Auntie Wang, please hurry up. My sister just felt a lot of pain." Huang Yueqiang walked in front, and the midwife lagged behind by a long way.

Aunt Wang said, "I'm already walking fast enough. You're young, and I'm old. I can't compare with you."

"Auntie Wang, let me hold these things for you." Huang Yueqiang stepped back and helped the midwife take all the things.

After the things were taken over by Huang Yueqiang, the midwife felt much more relaxed and walked faster than before.

When the villagers saw Huang Yueqiang coming back with the midwife from Team 3, they immediately knew why the child had run away.

"You guessed it right. Yue Qiang really went to find a midwife just now."

"It looks like his sister is really going to give birth!"

Then everyone's attention came again.

"How many babies do you think Yuelan will give birth to this time?"

As soon as this topic was brought up, the other villagers became interested.

This topic has been a hot topic in their village for a long time. After all, in the entire Hongqi Commune, only their production team had twins and only their production team had triplets. This had never happened in other production teams since the village was established.

"I guess it's at least twins."

"I think the belly is also full of at least two, maybe even three."

Everyone was curious and envious. Other people gave birth to two or three children at a time, but they only gave birth to one at a time. After making the comparison, they immediately felt that Huang Yuelan was amazing.

"Child, take a break. I'm so tired." The midwife was so tired that she sat on a stone by the roadside to rest for a while.

Huang Yueqiang: "But my sister is about to give birth. When I came, she kept complaining about the pain."

"Don't worry, I've been delivering babies for so many years. How can a baby be born so quickly? The fastest one will take two or three hours. A difficult birth may take several days," said the midwife.

When Huang Yueqiang heard about the difficult labor, his heart tightened. He hoped that his sister would not have a difficult labor. When he saw that midwife Wang was indeed exhausted and sweating, he accompanied her to rest on the side of the road for a while.

The midwife did not dare to delay too much. After resting for a while, she immediately got up and followed Huang Yueqiang on the journey.

After all, she has been delivering babies for many years and knows that giving birth is a very dangerous thing. If things go wrong, it may result in two deaths. She cannot be careless and cannot delay.

She started delivering babies when she was in her thirties. It is no exaggeration to say that half of the members of the commune in the surrounding area were delivered by her.

Not only are they experienced, but the mortality rate is also extremely low.

The mortality rate and success rate are compared with those of other midwives.

There are many people who make some extra money by being midwives, but she is the only one who can turn danger into safety in most cases, and she is the only one who can deal with difficult births. Others can only deliver babies born naturally.

Finally arriving at Huang Yuelan's home, the midwife saw some small children in the yard, one of whom was triplets and the other was twins.

Not only do they look the same, but their height and expressions are also the same.

Seeing this, the midwife immediately knew it was Huang Yuelan.

Although no one had seen her yet, her deeds had already spread throughout the Red Flag Commune.

"Sister, the midwife is here!" Huang Yueqiang said after rushing into the house.

Seeing Huang Yueqiang push open the door, the midwife pulled Huang Yueqiang out and said, "Men should not go into a place where women give birth."

"The person inside is my sister." Huang Yueqiang asked back.

Midwife: "Your sister can't do that either. Stay at the door. No, go get some hot water in a basin."

Frightened by the midwife's aura, Huang Yueqiang stayed obediently at the door and dared not go in. He could only follow the midwife's instructions and go get some hot water.

He had seen this in a movie before: when a woman gave birth, the man really had to wait outside, so maybe some men couldn't watch it.

When Huang Yuelan saw the midwife come in, she immediately felt like she had seen a savior.

Just now I was looking at the beam eagerly, hoping that the midwife would come soon, and now the midwife has arrived.

Huang Yuelan could guess that her brother hardly stopped along the way and must have run there.

Because she knew the distance between the first production team and the third production team, even if she took a shortcut, it would take more than an hour to go back and forth.

But now, less than an hour later, my younger brother brought the midwife. It can be guessed that my younger brother must have used his fastest speed to call the midwife.

"How do you feel? Does your stomach hurt a lot?" the midwife asked after coming in.

Huang Yuelan: "It hurts in waves. Just now I felt like something fell out of my body."
