Yan Bao leaned over to look at his niece: [Hmm, a little ugly.]
Brother Shen: β?β
What nonsense are you talking about.
Second Brother Shen looked at his eldest brother cautiously, hoping that his eldest brother didn't know that Yan Bao said the baby was ugly.
Although she was telling the truth.
The baby seemed to hear their thoughts. His little mouth pouted, his brows furrowed, and he cried loudly.
Big Brother Shen was so frightened that he trembled, nervously and helplessly looked at the nanny: "Why is she crying? How can I comfort her? She's crying!"
The nurse immediately took action: "Master, don't panic. The child is crying because he is either hungry, wet, or uncomfortable. I see that he is hungry. I will take him down and feed him."
Brother Shen nodded and asked the nanny to take good care of the little lady.
The wet nurse nodded.
At this moment, Xu Zhimo in the delivery room began to have contractions again. She was pregnant with another baby!
Yan Bao didn't chat anymore and immediately stayed by Xu Zhimo's side.
After giving birth to the first child, the second one was much easier.
Xu Zhimo was in excruciating pain. Yan Bao frowned as he watched basins of blood being carried out. Giving birth was such a great thing, but it was terrifying to see so much blood flowing.
Fortunately, Xu Zhimo took good care of herself during her pregnancy, and the fetus was in a normal position. When her second son was born, she still had the strength to speak and asked the midwife, "Is it a son or a daughter?"
"Congratulations, ma'am, it's..."
The midwife was about to plot against the newborn, intending to make the child unconscious and disguise it as a dead fetus, but Yan Bao snatched the nephew away. Zi Yun subdued the midwife: "How dare you murder the young master!"
When the baby was in Yan Bao's arms, he probably felt uncomfortable and started crying with a pout.
When Xu Zhimo heard Ziyun's words, her expression changed: "What's going on?"
Yan Bao couldn't speak, so Zi Yun spoke on his behalf: "Madam, this midwife wants to harm the young master."
The thing that was snatched from the midwife's hand was a needle containing medicine.
Xu Zhimo's expression changed: "Let me see it."
Ziyun gave the needle to Xu Zhimo. Xu Zhimo knew what it was after sniffing it. Her face changed: "Why did you harm my son? Did the Protector General ask you to do this?"
"I... I don't know." As she said this, the midwife was about to bite the poison hidden in her teeth. She knew that if she gave away the information about the Protectorate, her whole family would die.
If she was caught, she would be the only one to die.
Yan Bao had anticipated this, and when the midwife was about to bite the pill, he dislocated her jaw to prevent her from committing suicide by taking the poison.
Yan Bao gave Xu Zhimo a soothing look and handed the baby to her. The baby seemed to know who his mother was. As soon as he was in Xu Zhimo's arms, he stopped crying.
Brother Shen and the others heard the commotion inside and were about to rush in, but Yan Bao and the others had already subdued the midwife and thrown her out: "Humph, you want to commit suicide by taking poison and save the Protectorate? Dream on."
Brother Shen pretended not to know Yan Bao's thoughts and asked, "What's going on?"
Yan Bao didn't say anything. When Ziyun told him what happened, Big Brother Shen was so angry that he kicked the midwife and said, "Take her away and keep her under strict guard. Don't let her die after you've dealt with her."
The servant nodded: "Yes."
Brother Shen was worried about Xu Zhimo and entered the delivery room: "Are you okay? Are you not scared?"
"It's okay, the baby is fine too, they're twins, a boy and a girl." Xu Zhimo didn't even have time to clean up. She looked at the baby in her arms with a face full of maternal love: "He looks a little skinny."
"The two children must be thin. If you take good care of them, they will grow up to be fat and healthy." Brother Shen comforted Xu Zhimo and glanced at his son in his arms. His appearance was not as small as his sister. He looked more like a monkey.
Brother Shen didn't despise her. He knew that as long as she had a son and a daughter, she wouldn't have to suffer.
Having children is so dangerous, two is enough.
Brother Shen can't stay in the delivery room for long, Xu Zhimo still has to clean up.
He carried his sons out and handed them to the wet nurse. The two children lay in the cradle and slept soundly. Brother Shen would go over to take a look from time to time.
Brother Shen asked what to do with the midwife.
Brother Shen wanted to kill his way to the Protectorate, but he knew he couldn't act impulsively.
He went to interrogate the midwife in person, and the poison was dug out. The midwife could not die, and she knew she was finished.
No matter how Brother Shen asked, the midwife didn't say anything.
Yan Bao couldn't help but complain in his heart: [She is also stupid. She thought that if she died, the Protector General would protect her family. The Protector General used the midwife's family to threaten her.]
γFor the sake of her family, the midwife would rather sacrifice herself.γ
[The Protector General's wife is quite cruel. She is not afraid of my father at all.]
[They actually wanted to take my nephew away, use him to threaten my sister-in-law, and then control my brother. The Protectorate is really calculating.]
Brother Shen listened to the Protectorate's plan, his fists clacking. The midwife's scalp tingled, and for the sake of her family, she dared not speak of the Protectorate's wife. "This is all because of the old woman's evil mind. You can kill her or chop her up, my Lord. The old woman deserves death. She deserves it."
Brother Shen snorted coldly: "Do you think you can protect the people behind you like this?"
"Come here, take her away and put her in jail." Brother Shen would never let the protector's family go like this.
That night, except for Xu Zhimo, who was extremely tired from giving birth, everyone else in the Shen family slept uneasily.
The two babies were taken care of by a wet nurse, so Xu Zhimo didn't have to worry about anything.
Yan Bao slept uneasily at night. She knew that it would not be so easy to bring down the Protector-General. She was thinking about how to get rid of him. This man deserved to die.
The next day, the wife of the Protector General learned that the midwife's affair had been exposed and she had been thrown into prison.
Last night, when the child was not sent to the place he was supposed to go, the Protector-General knew that the plan had not been accomplished.
