Chapter 436 The Breath of Death
He felt that even if he had children in the future, they would never be as well-behaved, cute, sensible, and considerate as his son.
Chen Jianye stood to the side, listening to their conversation, his expression somewhat complicated.
Although the fourth son wouldn't think this way once he had a son, the fact that he said those words to coax his daughter already shows how much he loves her.
I just hope that the fourth child won't forget what he said and won't mistreat the baby, and won't treat his biological children and adopted children too differently.
Da Ni was boiling water in the kitchen, hoping that her mother and child would be safe and sound, and that she would give birth to a healthy and chubby little brother, just as her parents wished.
Erni, standing to the side, didn't care at all. It didn't matter whether it was a younger brother or a younger sister. Anyway, they had separated the family and each family lived their own lives. There was no need for a younger brother to compete for affection. She just wanted her mother to finish giving birth and rest as soon as possible.
She has to get up early to go to school tomorrow.
Inside the room, Zhao Mei lay on her back on the bed, her face deathly pale, her whole body drenched in sweat.
She was so nervous and worried that she would give birth to another girl that she didn't give birth for a long time and almost exhausted all her strength.
"Mom, Mom, I have no strength left!"
After Zhao Mei finished speaking in a weak and feeble voice, her legs suddenly went limp and she collapsed onto the bed.
Zhou Zhaodi and Liu Lanzhi immediately stepped forward to help support her legs, both looking somewhat nervous.
No matter how many times a woman gives birth, she is always on the verge of death. A slight mistake could result in the death of both mother and child!
Ma Xiulian immediately brought over some sweet soup and eggs from the kitchen and stood by the bedside, feeding her: "Eat quickly, you'll have strength after eating!"
Seeing her eldest daughter-in-law's condition, Ma Xiulian knew that the child was probably having a tough time today, so she stayed in the house.
Seeing that she hadn't come out for a long time, Chen Jianjun took his little girl to brush her teeth and wash her face. After washing her, he stayed by her bedside and coaxed her to sleep.
Apart from Da Ni and Er Ni, the other children had all gone back to their rooms to sleep, while the adults waited at the door.
Chen Dazhu squatted at the gate of the courtyard, smoking his pipe in silence. Everyone else remained silent as well; it had been going on for far too long!
The atmosphere began to become tense and heavy.
Chen Jianguo paced back and forth, his dark face filled with anxiety and worry: "Why is there still no news? Why hasn't the baby been born yet?! Dad, do you think Amei and the baby will be alright?!"
Giving birth doesn't take that long, it's not like it's your first child.
"What's the rush? Your mother's here! Nothing will happen!" Chen Dazhu scolded him in a low voice, seeing his disoriented state.
Chen Jianguo knew that there was no use in being anxious, so he suppressed his eagerness, turned around and went back to the door to wait. He waited until dawn.
At this point, Zhao Mei's amniotic fluid had almost completely drained, and if the baby didn't come out soon, it would suffocate and die.
"Mom! What should we do?" Zhou Zhaodi cried out anxiously as she saw Zhao Mei's consciousness beginning to blur as she was being dragged along.
If this continues, it could really result in the death of both mother and child!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ma Xiulian immediately went out and shouted, "Second and third sons, hurry! Go to the village and fetch the barefoot doctor. The eldest son's wife is probably not going to make it."
The people outside the door gasped. Chen Jiandang and Chen Jianye responded and immediately ran towards the gate.
Chen Jianguo's face turned pale instantly, and Da Ni and Er Ni also showed fear and panic on their faces, worried that something might happen to their mother.
At the same time, Helian Jiao, who was sleeping in the house, sensed the presence of death.
She opened her eyes with a frown, her misty black eyes filled with disdain.
