After explaining this to Tian, Song Yuehua turned around and said to Gu Qing, "I can lend you the cart, but I also have a midwife here. Do you want to let her take a look first? Otherwise, it might not be safe to go all the way to the county town. If you feel it is not appropriate, I can lend you the ox cart."
"Midwife!" Gu Qing exclaimed in surprise, "We need a midwife! We need a midwife!"
Song Yuehua nodded and said, "Then don't worry, the midwife will come to your house soon, you should go back and accompany Liu Meiniang and comfort her."
"Okay! Okay! Thank you, Miss Song." Gu Qing bowed hastily and hurried home.
Song Yuehua sighed helplessly.
It was not until the evening of that day that Tian came back with a message saying that Liu Meiniang had given birth to a boy, and both mother and child were safe.
"I understand. Aunt Tian, you should go back and have a rest as well." Song Yuehua said.
The next day,
Gu Qing came over with a small bag of corn to express his gratitude. "If it weren't for Miss Song's help, I'm afraid my wife would have suffered a lot. This little thing is not a token of respect, and I'm afraid you won't despise it."
Song Yuehua took it with a smile.
Gu Qing added, "When the baby is one month old, please invite Miss Song to come over for a glass or two of light wine."
Song Yuehua calculated the date and thought that by the time the baby was one month old, she should have returned from Qingzhou, so she agreed.
After some polite exchanges, Gu Qing bowed and left.
In the afternoon, Aunt Pang came over to chat with Song Yuehua.
It turned out that Gu Qing initially went to the Bian family to borrow a ox cart.
The Bian family, Song Yuehua almost forgot that there was such a family in the village.
Auntie Pang described vividly, "Having a baby is a big deal! Even a dog's puppies need to be taken care of, let alone a human. I don't know what the Bian couple are thinking. They don't usually interact with others, but who would have thought they would have such a bad temper."
"At that time, they didn't even open the door for Gu Qing. Later, Huang Fengjuan cursed at him loudly, and he came out. He said that his cow was sick. The day before yesterday, everyone saw the man of the Bian family coming back from the county town in a bullock cart. But it broke down just one night. This is a blatant excuse. I think no one in the village will pay attention to the Bian family now."
Song Yuehua thought of Bian Wu who was still in school. He seemed to have no problems with his temper. She didn't expect that his parents had such strange tempers.
