"Okay, I'll go right away," Green Fairy replied and quickly walked away.
Wen Nongnong breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
Seeing that her forehead was covered in sweat, Madam Ding couldn't help but laugh and said, "The Princess Consort is giving birth, why does Miss look even more nervous?" As she spoke, she went to wash a towel and came over to wipe her face.
After wiping her face, Wen Nongnong couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's my first time experiencing a loved one giving birth, and I'm a little excited and nervous."
"Don't worry, Miss. The Crown Princess may look frail, but she's a very capable person. She's been exercising every day lately, so she's in good health and will get through this," Madam Ding reassured her.
Wen Nongnong nodded. "Aunt Ding is right."
"This old servant has someone bring up breakfast; Miss hasn't eaten yet since she got up," said Mama Ding.
Wen Nongnong didn't have much of an appetite, but she still nodded, "Alright."
The Wen residence and the Xiang Prince's residence were not far apart. When Lü Qiao arrived with Physician Lin, Lu Yingying was still giving birth, and the courtyard was already full of people.
Except for Wen Tingyun, who went to the military camp with Gu Linchao, everyone from the Wen family was here.
Even Madam Wen couldn't stay in her own courtyard and, despite being advised against it, came here to wait.
This is her own great-grandson, so naturally she cares about him.
The heart-wrenching screams of Lu Yingying echoed continuously from the main house. Lü Qiao, who had never experienced such a scene before, turned pale with fright.
Even Wen Tingyun, a man of such composure, had a deathly pale face, devoid of any color.
He tried to barge in several times, but was stopped each time by the old woman Lu Yingying had instructed.
Naturally, the old women couldn't stop him, but before he entered the house, Lu Yingying begged him not to go in.
Therefore, Wen Tingyun was in a very difficult position.
He was worried about Lu Yingying, but he was also afraid that if he barged in, he would startle Lu Yingying and affect her delivery.
"Tingyun, don't worry, your mother is inside. Yingying is a strong person, she will get through this." Wen Shiqing saw that his usually composed son was now completely lost, so he stepped forward to comfort him.
Back when Mrs. Xu was giving birth, he was just as anxious and worried as his son.
But sometimes, he really doesn't understand women. Why would they still consider whether someone is ugly or not when faced with such a big decision?
When Ms. Xu was giving birth, she absolutely refused to let him into the delivery room, saying that she didn't want him to see her disheveled and ugly side.
Yingying probably thinks the same way.
Tingyun lingered outside the door for so long, wanting to rush in several times but stopping himself each time. He could empathize with the torment Tingyun went through.
After comforting his son, Wen Shiqing turned around and saw Lü Qiao standing there with a pale face. He frowned and said gently, "Lü Qiao, there's nothing wrong here. You can go back now."
Green Fairy came to her senses and shook her head. "No, Miss sent me here. I have to wait until the Crown Princess gives birth safely before I can go back. Otherwise, Miss will have to come here in person."
"Then go to the outer courtyard and wait. I'll have someone notify you when the Crown Princess gives birth," Wen Shiqing said.
Look how scared this child is, his face is completely pale.
"No, it's alright, I'd like to wait here," Green Fairy insisted. What she was actually embarrassed to say was that her legs were so weak that she couldn't move at all.
Upon hearing this, Wen Shiqing had no choice but to give up, saying, "Then so be it."
In fact, Lü Qiao had heard other servants talk about how painful childbirth was for women, but she had never witnessed it herself, so she just listened and let it go.
But now, she heard with her own ears how Lu Yingying screamed in agony when she gave birth.
Just by hearing that sound, you can tell how much pain it causes.
She got goosebumps all over.
She silently prayed for Lu Yingying, but at the same time, a shadow seemed to fall over her heart.
I never knew childbirth was so painful for women.
That kind of pain felt like it was about to break my bones.
She couldn't help but wonder if she would have to go through this kind of pain after she married Si Yi.
Thinking of this, she shuddered.
No wonder Madam Ding didn't let Miss come over. Miss is pregnant. If she came over and heard the Crown Princess screaming so horribly, she would probably be terrified. Not to mention whether it would affect the fetus, it would also be very bad for her future childbirth.
Fortunately, the young lady didn't come over.
She thought to herself with relief.
Those inside endure hardship, and those waiting outside suffer immensely as well.
By evening, the baby was finally born, its loud cry piercing the air above the Wen residence.
Lü Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, feeling completely exhausted and drenched in sweat.
As soon as the door to the main house opened, the midwife came out carrying the baby, her face beaming with smiles. "Congratulations, Madam, Duke, and Prince! The Princess Consort has given birth to a little prince."
Madam Wen and Wen Shiqing were overjoyed and reached out to hug the child, but Wen Tingyun only glanced at him briefly before quickly going into the house.
Lü Qiao leaned over to take a look at the child and was delighted to see that the child was healthy and fair-skinned.
Seeing that Lu Yingying had successfully given birth, Physician Lin did not linger and quickly returned to the Prince's Mansion to continue preparing the antidote.
Afterwards, Lü Qiao went into the house to check on Lu Yingying. Seeing that she was only a little weak but otherwise fine, she returned to the palace to tell Wen Nong Nong the good news as soon as possible.
