The city of Jingzhou was very unstable during this period. Women did not dare to go out at all. People were chasing runaway concubines in the streets and alleys, and everyone was scared to hide at home for fear of being caught by mistake.
Everyone knows that the Li family in Jingzhou City has absolute power. The third young master, Li, is a man who doesn't care about food or meat and likes girls from decent families the most. If he sees someone he likes, he will take them away. Even if you report him to the police, it will be useless.
His uncle is the governor, you can't sue him at all.
There is no problem with a girl like Yan Bao. She likes to go out and play with Brother Shen when she has nothing to do, eating, drinking, shopping, climbing mountains, boating, fishing, picking lotus pods and lotus flowers. She has a lot of fun.
The escaped concubine was captured for several days but nothing was found. The governor was very angry but could do nothing. He sealed the city for half a month and finally opened it. After all, everyone has to make a living.
It’s better for Brother Shen to go and talk to the Protector-General, otherwise it’s unknown when the title will be granted.
Big Brother Shen was afraid that Second Brother Shen would be exposed before, but after seeing that they went out several times without being discovered, Big Brother Shen felt relieved. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Big Brother Shen wouldn't have believed that the woman was his own brother.
They never thought of it.
Yan Bao is really smart.
The people were rescued, the Shen family was also freed, and the Protector-General did not suspect the Shen family. During this period, the Shen family lived a good life.
Soon, Xu Zhimo entered the late stage of pregnancy.
She is expecting twins, so she will probably give birth earlier than other pregnant women.
The midwife, wet nurse and so on have all been found.
When Lady Duhu heard that it was the midwife she recommended, she was secretly proud and sent people to keep an eye on them. If they got angry, she would immediately find a way to steal the child. With the child in her hands, how could she not control them?
Only those who have children know how important their children are to them.
Especially as a mother.
I heard that Lord Shen and his wife have a deep relationship. If he controls his wife, wouldn't that be the same as controlling her?
Thinking of this, Lady Duhu narrowed her eyes proudly.
Xu Zhimo's stomach started to feel uncomfortable when she was taking a nap at noon. She knew she was about to give birth, so she calmly asked her maid to call Brother Shen. Knowing that the midwife was unreliable, Xu Zhimo would not give her the chance to harm her child.
Soon, Brother Shen came running over, not even noticing that one of his shoes had fallen off. He was sweating profusely and looked nervous: "Are you okay? Does it hurt? What can your husband do?"
"Don't be afraid, it's just the beginning!" Xu Zhimo looked at her usually calm husband who was helpless, panicked and nervous, and comforted him softly.
Brother Shen finally calmed down and held her hand tightly.
Soon, the midwife came.
In addition to the one arranged by the Protector General's wife, there was another midwife who was also very experienced.
Yan Bao heard the noise and came over. He glanced at the midwife and snorted inwardly: "How dare you lay hands on my newborn nephew? You wish! I won't let you take my nephew away."
Brother Shen nodded secretly, he would not let anyone take his son away.
Second Brother Shen has already touched the hidden weapon and wants to kill someone.
The midwife noticed the way the Shen family looked at her. She didn't know if it was because she felt guilty, but she was a little nervous.
Soon, Xu Zhimo was in so much pain that she couldn't care less about Brother Shen: "You go and guard outside."
"Don't be afraid, your husband is outside." Brother Shen held her hand, not afraid of being laughed at by others, and kissed her: "If you feel uncomfortable, just shout it out."
Xu Zhimo nodded, looking at the man who truly cared about her and felt sorry for her, she forced a smile, but her face soon changed color due to the pain of severe contractions.
Yan Bao didn't want to go out, she had to stay in the delivery room.
Brother Shen knew what Yan Bao was thinking and didn't take him away: "Spend more time with your sister-in-law."
Yan Bao nodded silently: "Don't worry, big brother. I'm here. I won't let my nephew be taken away and used as a pawn for you. Madam Duhu is truly despicable for attacking a child."
Brother Shen nodded with emotion and touched Yan Bao's head: "Thank you, Yan Bao."
Yan Bao smiled and waved his hands: [What are you thanking me for? You are my big brother after all!]
Brother Shen was moved, and even though he didn't want to leave, he was still driven away by the midwife because she thought he was in the way.
Xu Zhimo was in excruciating pain. She knew how painful childbirth was, but only after giving birth did she realize how painful it was.
Yan Bao couldn't help much, he could only stay with her, wipe her sister-in-law's sweat from time to time, chat with her, and tell her what to do after her nephews and nieces came out, which made Xu Zhimo feel much better.
The two midwives were indeed professionals. Under their guidance, Xu Zhimo cried for an hour, drank some water, and ate something to replenish her energy. She would continue after her five fingers were dilated.
Now it’s just a matter of time.
Soon it was dark, and Xu Zhimo still hadn't given birth.
Brother Shen was in the yard, like an ant on the hot pan. He felt heartbroken when he heard the screams.
I didn't hear any sound and was anxious.
He wanted to lie on the window and call Xu Zhimo's maiden name twice. If she didn't respond, he would think something had happened. If she responded, he would want to say a few more words to her.
Not long after dark, the pain became more intense and the contractions became frequent.
After checking, the midwife said, "It's time to give birth. Madam, keep going. You'll be able to see the young master soon."
Xu Zhimo nodded sweatily, following the midwife's instructions on breathing, exerting force when necessary and stopping when necessary.
Yan Bao was extremely nervous. Thinking of the caesarean section, and then looking at her sister-in-law who had endured for two hours, she became anxious if the baby didn't give birth soon.
I didn't expect that giving birth would not only be painful, but also last for hours.
It’s not easy for mothers.
"Ahhhhhhhh..." Xu Zhimo knew that there was no turning back after giving birth. She had to give birth to the child no matter how painful it was. She was looking forward to her child and felt sorry for that child in her previous life.
