When she was bored before, Lin Yinan learned an external rotation technique from Yu Xiaojia. She memorized it after watching it a few times, but she had never actually tried it and didn't know if it was useful.
"There's a massage technique for correcting alignment, it might be a little uncomfortable, please bear with it. If you feel uncomfortable, let me know immediately."
Lu Yashuang nodded through the pain; for the sake of her child, she could endure any amount of pain.
"Come on, I can handle it."
Lin Yinan washed his hands and began to gently massage her stomach.
After pushing for a while, she felt the fetus turn slightly.
"Miss Lin, the baby is moving inside!" Lu Yashuang exclaimed with wide eyes.
Lin Yinan touched the baby's head several times to confirm that it had turned around.
Just then, the guards carried in an old woman wrapped in a quilt and dressed in thin clothes.
This is the most famous midwife in the village; she delivered almost all the babies in the village.
Yunyan held the hot water basin upright, and the midwife placed her hands into the boiling water basin and rubbed them repeatedly.
After washing her hands, she stood by the brazier to warm her body. New mothers should avoid being exposed to drafts, and she brought in a chill from outside, which she didn't want to pass on to the new mother.
The midwife walked behind the screen, and Lin Yinan quickly stepped aside, while Yunye remained kneeling motionless on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Second Master Yun, childbirth is a very unclean process for women. You should wait outside first."
Lu Yashuang didn't want her husband to see her at her worst, so she gently advised, "Husband, you go out first. I'll call you if I need anything."
Not wanting to embarrass her, Yunye obediently got off the kang (heated brick bed), put on his shoes, and went outside the screen.
The midwife saw that Lin Yinan, who was usually bold, was standing still, so she just glanced at her and didn't chase her away.
She checked Lu Yashuang's fetal position and cervix. The fetal position was correct, and the cervix was almost fully dilated.
Upon hearing the midwife say that the baby's position was fine, Lin's husband and Yunwu decided not to stay there any longer and went to the next room.
Yunying helped Yunmu in, and they waited outside the screen with Yunye.
An hour later, a baby's cry pierced the sky, loud and powerful.
"It's a boy! A big, healthy baby boy!" Yunyan smiled broadly, her voice filled with joy.
The midwife cleaned the baby, wrapped him in a blanket, and took him outside.
Lin Yinan followed him out in a daze.
"Congratulations, Madam and Young Master! Mother and child are safe and sound!"
Yunmu took the child, her joy barely concealed in her eyes and brows, and said "good" three times in a row.
"Good! Good! Good! You've worked hard. The Yun family will reward you handsomely."
Having received Yunmu's promise, the midwife happily returned behind the screen to continue cleaning Lu Yashuang's body.
Seeing Lin Yinan leaning over to look at the baby, Yunmu thought that she deserved a lot of credit for her grandson's safe delivery.
She handed the baby to her, saying, "Anan, you can hold him for a moment."
Lin Yinan looked at the tiny bundle with its eyes closed and skin flushed, and fearing that she might accidentally fall, she quickly waved her hand to refuse.
"No, no, I can't hold it properly."
Mica forcibly placed the baby in her arms and taught her how to hold it.
Holding the soft, cuddly baby, Lin Yinan's hardened heart gradually melted, eventually becoming completely soft.
Suddenly, the thought popped into my head that having a baby like that wouldn't be so bad.
She thought that it didn't matter who the child's father was; the child belonged only to her. If she had a child to accompany her in this life, she wouldn't be as lonely as she was in her previous life.
Regardless of gender, all members of the Yun family are good-looking. Even at such a young age, you can already see that their eyebrows and eyes resemble Yun Ye's.
She handed the child back to Yunmu.
Yunmu smiled and took out a handkerchief. Inside, she found a jade pendant, which she gently placed in the baby's swaddling clothes.
Lin Yinan glanced at the jade pendant, and her pupils suddenly contracted.
This jade pendant is similar to the one in the cave; the patterns are very similar, but it doesn't have a tiger's head in the center.
Seeing her staring at the jade pendant, Yunmu kindly explained, "This is something that every child in the Yun family is born with; the jade was inherited from our ancestors."
To confirm her words, Yunye took out his jade pendant from his waist.
Lin Yinan was even more shocked. In the center of Yunye's jade pendant was a lifelike fish with almost identical patterns.
"Huh, is there a fish carved in it?"
Seeing that she seemed to have never seen jade like this before, Yunyan kindly began to explain it to her.
"My eldest brother's is a Qilin, my second brother's is a fish, and my third brother's is a tiger."
Yunmo!
The person who left that jade pendant in the cave was Yun Mo!
Lin Yinan's heart skipped a beat. She tried to hide her emotions and pretended to be nonchalant.
Just now she was saying that the men of the Yun family were good-looking and that their children would be good-looking too. Now it's good to see that the child she's carrying is from the Yun family.
The midwife quickly cleaned Lu Yashuang up, and Yunying brought in two thick cotton coats from the outside.
Yunyan carried the child back to Lu Yashuang's side.
Yunmu took the cotton coat from Yunying's hands and handed it to the midwife. She said gently, "Thank you so much for today. I think you need this more than money."
The midwife reached out her trembling hand and touched the cotton-padded coat. The stitches were neat, and the coat was folded in quite a bit, so it could be altered to fit her size.
The midwife was moved to tears and bowed deeply to the departing mother, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Madam."
Yunmu was in a good mood today and waved her hand, "The Yun family has a new addition today. I will have the guards go to the accounting office to collect another fifty catties of grain for you later."
"Thank you, Madam!" The midwife was practically kneeling down to kowtow.
Yunmu wanted to give Lin Yinan a thank-you gift, but she politely declined.
Lin Yinan felt that she hadn't been of much help and resolutely refused to accept the money. Seeing this, Yunmu had no choice but to give up.
He bid farewell to the Yun family and came out of the house.
