Wait until Lin Feng comes back driving the donkey cart.
Lin came up to her brother and asked, "What do you think of Miss Zhou?"
"What, what happened?" Lin Feng asked stutteringly.
Lin angrily slapped her brother on the body: "You are such a fool, and you still want me to explain it clearly. What I mean is, what do you think of the girl? Do you want me to ask her for you?"
After hearing what his sister said, Lin Feng's ears turned red. He did not give a direct answer but changed the subject: "Sister, well, I'm leaving first. I'll come to see you tomorrow!"
After saying that, he took the horse and was about to leave.
Looking at her brother running away in a panic, Lin finally had an idea in her mind.
Over the years, Lin has known her younger brother's character. Although he didn't say it explicitly, judging from his behavior just now, if he really didn't like her, he would definitely not let her arrange a match.
Li Yan looked at her mother standing under the eaves, watching her uncle walk away with a silly smile, and couldn't help asking: "Mom, why did my uncle leave? Why didn't you let him eat before leaving?"
Lin was in a good mood and said, "If he doesn't want to eat, then don't eat. Let him starve today!"
When the couple lay in bed that night, Lin told her husband what had happened today: "I think the girl from the Zhou family is a good match for Brother Feng in terms of age and appearance. Why don't I find a chance to ask Aunt Wang what she thinks and help Brother Feng find out?"
"You're about to give birth, so don't worry about this. I'll go and find out what Doctor Zhou has to say another day!" Li Erlang said as he smoothed the hair around his wife's ears.
Lin nodded, feeling at ease leaving the matter to her husband.
However, neither of them expected that Mrs. Lin, who was due to give birth in more than half a month, would suddenly have stomach pain in the middle of the night.
Lin was first awakened by waves of pain, and felt her lower abdomen sinking. Having already given birth to two children, she knew that she was about to give birth!
Lin was panicked and pushed her husband who was sleeping next to her.
Li Erlang, who was sleeping soundly, felt the movement beside him, sat up suddenly, and asked sleepily, "Wan'er, what's wrong?"
"My stomach hurts, I feel like I'm about to give birth!" Lin forced herself to suppress her inner panic and said in a calm tone.
Li Erlang woke up immediately after hearing this. Wasn't there still more than half a month before the birth? Was it premature?
Li Erlang hurriedly got up and lit the oil lamp in the dark. Then he hurriedly put on his clothes and tried his best to calm down and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'll go find a midwife right away!"
Li Erlang rushed out of the courtyard in a panic and knocked on the door next door: "Mother, mother, wake up quickly, Wan'er is about to give birth!"
Following the rapid knocks on the door, Mrs. Wu heard the noise and hurriedly got up and patted her husband who was still sleeping beside her: "Wake up, wake up quickly, the second son's wife is about to give birth!"
Mr. Li was woken up by his wife. He hurriedly put on his clothes after hearing this. At this time, his aunt Liu also heard the noise outside and shook the sleeping man: "Second son's wife is about to give birth. You should quickly accompany him to get the midwife!"
The whole family quickly put on their clothes. Mrs. Wu was the first to tidy up and ran to open the door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw her youngest son with disheveled hair and only a casual blue shirt on.
"Mom, Wan'er is complaining of stomach pain. I'm afraid she's about to give birth. Please take care of her for me first. I'll go get the midwife!" After saying that, she hurried to get the midwife.
Mrs. Wu grabbed her panicked son and said, "It's dark and windy this night. How can you see the road clearly by yourself? Ask your eldest brother to light a lantern and accompany you. It will be safer this way!"
At this time, Li Dalang also came to the door and echoed, "Yes, second brother, go and harness the carriage first. It's the middle of the night, and you can't let the midwife walk over here with you!"
He was so worried that he was confused. Li Erlang was only thinking about finding a midwife and didn't even think about getting into the carriage first!
A group of people came to the next room again. Li Xiaomei and Li Yan, who heard the noise, had already gotten up and were standing in Lin's room at a loss.
Mrs. Wu walked into the room and first looked at her daughter-in-law: "Does it still hurt now?"
Lin shook her head: "That period has passed, it should still be early, don't worry!"
How could Mrs. Wu feel at ease? The child was born half a month early, and she didn't know whether it would be easy to raise the child.
But she didn't dare show any panic in front of her daughter-in-law. She first instructed her eldest daughter-in-law and daughter: "You two, hurry up and boil some hot water now. Your sister-in-law will need it later!"
After the two left, he instructed Li Yan, who was standing beside him, "Go find all the small clothes your mother made, and also find a pair of scissors!"
Several people were busy following Wu's instructions. After everyone left, Wu went forward and touched Lin's belly. Her daughter-in-law's belly was really too big, and the child was going to be born a few days earlier. What if something went wrong?
If things don't go smoothly, it will lead to a difficult delivery, which means the whole person will go to the gates of hell. Thinking of this, Mrs. Wu couldn't help but shudder and quickly stopped the bad thoughts in her mind.
On the other side, Li Erlang cracked his whip, making a whirring sound. The donkey cart moved forward rapidly amidst the bumps. The journey that originally took half an hour was shortened by an extra cup of tea.
The donkey cart stopped in front of Doctor Zhou's door, and Li Erlang hurried forward and knocked on the door.
Hearing the noise, Doctor Zhou shook his wife and said, "Is that voice Erlang from the Li family?" It must be an urgent matter for him to find their home in the middle of the night, so the two of them quickly lit the lamp and got dressed.
Doctor Zhou was already used to being called up in the middle of the night to see patients, so he would quickly finish everything and come to open the door.
As soon as Doctor Zhou opened the door, he saw Li Erlang with his hair disheveled and an anxious look on his face.
Before Doctor Zhou could ask any more questions, Li Erlang said anxiously, "My wife is about to give birth. Please come with me, auntie!"
Wang, who was following behind Doctor Zhou, was very surprised when she heard this. She had just gone to see Lin today. If there was no midwife by her side with such a big belly, and there was a problem during the delivery, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Without giving it much thought, Wang said hurriedly, "Let's go, let's go!"
"Wait a moment, I'll get a medicine box and go with you!" Doctor Zhou then took the medicine box from his grandson and instructed, "Your grandmother and I will go over and take a look. You and your sister stay home and keep the door closed."
Zhou Xun had long been accustomed to such things and nodded. Although he also wanted to go with his grandfather to take a look, he was also worried about leaving his sister alone at home.
After the two of them sat down on the donkey cart, Li Erlang immediately waved the whip in his hand and hurried all the way with concern for his wife, just wanting to go faster and faster.
