Chapter Fifty-Six: Twins

Listening to the rain pavilion, Cui Shuyan wanted to put Qian Yuning on the bed, but Qian Yuning grabbed his sleeve and didn't let him go, with an extremely frightened and frightened expression on his face, and with every miserable moan from her, more blood flowed from under his body. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Su Chunqiu has already diagnosed Qian Yuning, and now he has avoided the door, and now there are Qian Yuning who is about to give birth and Yue Zhenniang, the midwife, and two maids who are about to give birth, and there is one person, that is, Cui Shuyan, who is not allowed to leave by Qian Yuning. Seeing that the mother was getting more and more dangerous, there was no way, Yue Zhenniang had to tell the two maids to put down the bedspread, let the little marquis sit outside the bedspread, and put his hand into the cover to hold Aunt Qian's hand, Qian Yuning began to cooperate with the production, if Cui Shuyan left at this time, she was afraid that she and the child would not be saved.

Cui Shuyan sat cross-legged on the ground under the bed, holding Qian Yuning's right hand and feeling her uneasiness and nervousness, as well as the slippery sweat on her hands, with her screaming one by one, a plate of hot water came in, and another basin of blood water was brought out, the whole room was filled with a thick bloody atmosphere, Cui Shuyan also felt a little scared, this is like a battlefield, is it so terrifying for women to give birth? In the past, I saw that Shi's was very relaxed after giving birth, and I thought it was easy for women to give birth, but I didn't expect it to be so terrifying.

When the labor pain started, Qian Yuning felt as if her lower body was about to be torn apart, as if someone was breaking her bones, the pain was very painful, and she even wished that someone would knock her unconscious with a stick or hope that someone would give her a knife, kill her, her consciousness was already blurred, and she couldn't feel anything except pain. In a daze, someone broke her mouth and poured in some soup, bitterly, with the taste of ginseng. After a while, she felt some strength in her body again, and subconsciously shook her left hand, and found that she had been holding the big hand of the little marquis in her hand, and her heart couldn't help but widen, turned her face sideways, and saw a vague figure outside the bedspread, she suddenly felt so relieved in her heart, he was still there, it turned out that he had been there all the time, did not go away, and was accompanying himself. didn't have time to say a word to him, Qian Yuning only felt that the labor pain in his lower body had started again, and he couldn't help but start screaming again.

Yue Zhenniang reached in and groped for a while, and then said to Qian Yuning: "Auntie, now you have to hold back, don't scream, hurry, take a roll of white cloth and bite her in her mouth." She instructed a maid, and the maid quickly took a white cloth and rolled it up for Qian Yuning to bite in her mouth. Yue Zhenniang said again: "Auntie, you inhale slowly, exhale, don't scream and move, save your strength, and when I tell you to exert yourself, you will exert yourself again." Qian Yuning nodded obediently.

Yue Zhenniang ordered another maid to come forward and feed Qian Yuning a bowl of ginseng soup, and took out two more ginseng slices for her to hold under her tongue. When Qian Yuning was in labor again, Yue Zhenniang scraped her stomach with her hand and said to her loudly: "Auntie, inhale, exhale, force, force, right, inhale again, exhale, force." Qian Yuning only felt that she was pushing her child down, one hand kept squeezing down from the round belly, and after repeating it five or six times, she felt that something seemed to fall into the urine, and she was trying to squeeze it out. At this time, Yue Zhenniang let go of the hand that squeezed her stomach, touched it with her hand, raised her head and said in surprise: "Auntie, breathe slowly first, endure the pain, you can already see your head, wait a minute, I will tell you to exert yourself harder and harder." Qian Yuning had no choice but to endure the pain, breathing as long as possible, the sweat on her face flowed down like running water, and her lower body was in a hot pain, which was about to tear her apart.

Just when she felt that she couldn't bear it, Yue Zhenniang said: "Auntie, take a deep breath, yes, inhale slowly, spit out slowly, inhale again, spit out again, inhale again, spit out again, suck again, okay, hard, hard, hard!" Auntie, the little boy is about to come out. Qian Yuning only heard the sound of a card rubbing, and he held back all his strength and pulled hard, only to feel that his stomach was loosened, and something fell out of his lower body, and then, a violent pain hit, and a stronger smell of blood in the room could not be dispersed. Yue Zhenniang picked up the newborn baby, cleaned up the blood blocked by his mouth and nose, and looked at it, it was a boy, he cried loudly, loud and high-pitched, as if announcing that he had come to this world. Qian Yuning was still moaning and crying out in pain, Yue Zhenniang handed over the newborn baby to the little girl standing aside, went up to check, and found that Qian Yuning had another one in her stomach, she saw that Qian Yuning seemed to faint, and she really had no strength, so she hurriedly said to her: "Auntie, there is one more, quickly, inhale, exhale, come again, again, inhale, exhale, just once!" Hard, auntie, hard, hard! It's a pity that Qian Yuning has fallen into a coma at this time, she heard the words of the midwife, she also wanted to give birth to the child hard, but she really had no strength, now she feels so tired and tired, she really wants to sleep, she doesn't want to do anything, she doesn't care about anything. Yue Zhenniang saw that something was wrong, and said to Cui Shuyan, who was sitting dumbfounded under the bed: "Little Hou Ye, talk to your aunt quickly, ask her to wake up and give birth to this second child, if my aunt faints at this time, I'm afraid that the other child in this belly and her will be the same corpse and two lives!" ā€

A sentence woke up Cui Shuyan, he reacted, grabbed Qian Yuning's hand and shouted in her ear: "Yuning, Yuning, wake up quickly, our child is about to be born, hurry, get up, work hard again, give birth to him, I will be good to you for the rest of my life." Qian Yuning raised her eyelids, but she really didn't have the strength.

Cui Shuyan clenched her sweaty hands, and her eyes were red: "Yuning, I know you can, you and the child can't leave me, the eldest child just now has been born, listen, he's crying, you can't have an accident!" Poor motherless child, what should you do if he dies? Yuning, wake up quickly, as long as you give birth to the child in this belly, you are a meritorious person in our family, as long as you are all at once, wake up quickly. Cui Shuyan beckoned, the maid holding the child came over, Cui Shuyan hugged him and put him next to Qian Yuning's pillow, the child seemed to know that his mother was suffering at this time, and cried loudly. Cui Shuyan put Qian Yuning's hand on the child. Suddenly, a miracle appeared, Qian Yuning opened her eyes, and looked at the little guy who was crying and dancing next to her, she seemed to have the strength to produce again. Yue Zhenniang saw the opportunity, went up and pressed Qian Yuning's stomach a few times as she did just now, Qian Yuning also cooperated, and finally, Qian Yuning screamed, and the second child fell to the ground. The child didn't cry after being picked up and cleaned up by Yue Zhenniang, but just hummed a few times like a kitten, and in a soft voice, Yue Zhenniang saw that it was a female doll. She hugged the child to Cui Shuyan and Qian Yuning and handed it over, and said, "Little Hou Ye, auntie, this second one is a daughter, congratulations!" Cui Shuyan took the child over and put it with his brother, and Qian Yuning finally fell asleep.

A little maid went out and called two grandmothers in their forties to come in and clean up Aunt Qian, and suddenly, a grandmother screamed: "It's not good, Auntie, she's bleeding." The other looked at it and cried out in horror: "Auntie's blood has collapsed." Yue Zhenniang immediately took out two red pills from the small medical box she carried with her and gave her a ginseng soup, and asked the maid to go outside the house and ask Su Chunqiu to ask Su Chunqiu if she wanted the decoction that had already been boiled, and she personally took the two grandmothers to clean Qian Yuning's lower body, and took out the special needle and thread she carried with her to stitch up the wound cut by the scissors just now. There was a rush, Cui Shuyan watched Qian Yu lying quietly on the bed on the side, his face was getting worse and worse, gray and gray, he began to feel a little scared, he remembered that when he killed someone for the first time, he also felt this way, although he was on the battlefield, killing the enemy, but he felt very painful at the time, this pain made him almost collapse, an enemy took advantage of his pain to sneak attack, fortunately he was seen by his father at that time, and he was killed by a knife. From then on, he told himself that he must never be merciful to his enemies, and that he should never be afraid, because fear will not help but cause him to be in chaos.

But now, looking at Qian Yuning's appearance, he felt uncomfortable and began to blame himself, if he came back earlier, Yuning would not have suffered such a big grievance, and he would not have suffered so much, besides, she desperately gave birth to a pair of children for him, he is really ashamed of being a father. "If Yu Ning leaves like this this time, he will definitely not forgive himself. Cui Shuyan stood up, called two grandmothers to pick up the two children and go out with him, and instructed Mama Liu and Mama Sun Yingfang, who were guarding the door, to go in and serve Qian Yuning, and let her dress neatly. Then in a deep voice, he called Dr. Su to come in and treat her, while he waited outside the door. After a while, Dr. Su and her wife Yue Zhenniang came out together, both of them looked heavy, Cui Shuyan's heart sank, frowned and asked, "What?" Doctor Su, what kind of medicine do you want to use, just say, I'll go to the treasury in the house to get it. ā€

Su Chunqiu raised his head and frowned and said: "Little Hou Ye, this, my aunt has lost too much blood, and there was bleeding at the beginning of her previous pregnancy, and now she is deficient in blood and qi, and there is blood congestion in the body, so you need to use a big tonic medicine, but this medicine must not be dry, otherwise it will be counterproductive." Its Tianshan Snow Lotus nourishes yin and nourishes blood, which is the most suitable for qi and blood deficiency, Cordyceps sinensis collects qi to nourish the lungs and kidneys, and is the most suitable for nourishing the five organs. This three-flavor medicine plus ginseng, angelica, white peony, and rehmania are combined into the seven-flavor Yangyuan Dan, if the aunt takes it, the condition will be slowed down, and slowly recuperate, it can be cured in less than a year. ā€

Cui Shuyan was puzzled: "Tianshan Snow Lotus, Cordyceps Sinensis, Western Regions Red Flower." How come I haven't heard of any of them? Such a weird drug name! ā€

Su Chunqiu continued: "This Tianshan Snow Lotus, Cordyceps Sinensis, and two-flavor medicines are extremely rare, I heard that there is a Tianshan Snow Lotus in the palace to pay tribute, but Cordyceps Sinensis has never seen any trace of it, and I just heard my master mention it." This medicine is a worm frozen in the snow in winter, buried deep on the plateau of more than 4,000 meters, when the ice and snow of two or three meters thick melt in summer, it is found that this thing has grown from the head of the insect A piece of tender green spores, this is called Cordyceps sinensis, it is a worm in winter, and it becomes grass as soon as summer arrives, it is very magical, because it gets its cold spirit in the ice and snow, and gets the masculine spirit of the scorching sun in the summer, so it can accommodate the two poles of yin and yang, which can make people yin and yang conditioning, and the stubborn disease can be cured. ā€

Cui Shuyan said: "What about the saffron of the Western Regions? ā€

Su Chunqiu arched his hand and said: "Su once went to the beach to collect medicine, and accidentally got some safflower from a merchant who came by boat from the Western Regions, which has been treasured, and has been tried on the mother, and the effect is indeed a hundred times better than ordinary safflower. Because it is not a thing in Middle-earth, it is very rare, so Su has been reluctant to use it, and if the little marquis wants to use it, Su must offer it with both hands. ā€

Cui Shuyan said: "Okay, I'll go into the palace and ask the emperor for medicine, Dr. Su, you can help me inquire about the whereabouts of Cordyceps sinensis, Cui is grateful." ā€

Su Chunqiu said: "Little Hou Ye is polite, Xiao Hou Ye, you must be fast, my aunt can't delay it for three days, if you don't take the medicine for three days, you will definitely collapse again, and Su will be powerless at that time." ā€

"Okay." Cui Shuyan took two grandmothers holding children to his nurse's residence, and saw Nurse Zhang sitting in the house in a daze, so she stepped forward and called: "Nurse!" Grandma Zhang came back to her senses, saw the little marquis coming, and hurried to catch up, Cui Shuyan entrusted the two children to her, met each other, and after two or three sentences, she left in a hurry. Nurse Zhang held the baby boy in her arms distressedly, looking at him chirping and looking for food, she couldn't help but automatically help find the nurse, forgetting the pain on her head.

In the end, I found a family in the house who had just given birth to a child, that is, Fang Mancang's family who fed the horse, his mother-in-law had just given birth to a little girl, this is already the third girl, Fang Mancang was in the next room and his mother-in-law grabbed the child, to give the child away, Fang Mancang grabbed the small quilt wrapped in the child, but his mother-in-law hugged tightly and did not let go, he was scolding the mother-in-law loudly, let her let go, one hand was raised, in the Fang family, beating the wife is simply commonplace, what often happens, Fang's sister-in-law holds the child and does not dare to let go, Seeing that the man's iron fist was about to hit her, she was powerless to resist, so she had to hug her little daughter tightly and cry, this is because she failed to give birth to a son, the sorrow of a woman!

The arrival of the steward rescued Fang's sister-in-law, he entered the door and saw this scene, and hurriedly went up to grab Fang Mancang and said: "Brother Mancang, stop fighting, your family is blessed, there is a little boy in the Hou Mansion, quickly, tell your mother-in-law to clean up and follow me into the house to be a nurse." ā€

Fang Mancang couldn't believe his ears, and asked his mother-in-law to go into the Hou Mansion to be a nurse, this is a great thing, why is it his turn Fang Mancang's turn, he smirked happily on the spot, and put down the hand holding the little daughter's quilt. He yelled at his mother-in-law in a rough voice: "Don't hurry up and put down this money-losing goods, and go to the Hou Mansion with the wooden housekeeper to serve the little boy, let me tell you, if you miss such a good thing and delay Lao Tzu's future, see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you." ā€

Seeing the evil voice and evil appearance of the master, Sister-in-law Fang shuddered, hugged tightly and slowly moved to the corner, not daring to make a sound. Fang Mancang saw his mother-in-law's cowering look, and he didn't hurry up to get up and follow the wooden butler, he was suddenly angry, and he made a gesture to step forward to beat people.

When the wooden butler saw it, he had to step forward to stop him again, and his tone became unhappy: "What's the matter, Fang Ma'er, are you crazy, you dare to do it in front of me?" You said that you beat your wife to a bad time, and the little boy in the house has no milk to eat, so I see that the little marquis doesn't need to whip you to death. Hearing what Steward Mu said, Fang Mancang was scared, put down his hand, and said with a smile: "How can you not give Grandpa Mu face, you can just take my mother-in-law away, I have to clean up this little girl." ā€

When Sister-in-law Fang heard Fang Mancang's words, she rushed behind the wooden housekeeper with the child in her arms, and said loudly in a trembling voice: "I don't, the wooden housekeeper, I beg you, let me take our Niuniu with me, I must feed the little boy to his heart's content, I have enough milk, really, please!" Sister-in-law Fang was so frightened that her voice trembled, and the whole person was very uneasy, for fear that as soon as she left, the ruthless Fang Mancang would take out her newborn daughter and give it away. Now I heard that the wooden housekeeper said that she wanted her to be a nurse for the little prince of the Hou Mansion, so she kept begging the wooden housekeeper as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

The butler turned his head to look at the frightened bird-like woman, and in a panic he held the daughter in his arms and begged him, and the child lay in his mother's arms, crying uneasily, softly, like a kitten, pitiful.

The wooden housekeeper remembered that the grandmother Zhang in the house had said that the little boy had been born for half a day now, and he had not drunk milk, and he was afraid that he would be hungry, so he asked himself to find a nurse to go back as soon as possible, and when he saw Sister-in-law Fang like this, he couldn't help but feel compassion. I thought to myself, if I really don't let her take her daughter, she will definitely not feed the little boy with peace of mind, that's it, my old Mu will be a good person today, let her take her daughter with her, first let the newborn little boy in the house eat is serious, and if the master doesn't like it in the future, then slowly look for a nurse with good milk to replace her.

At that moment, the wooden butler took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and threw it to Fang Mancang: "Fang Ma'er, then, this is the Hou Mansion rewarding you, I will take your lady to the master first, if you see it, you will have a heavy reward." The wooden butler spoke, Fang Mancang got the silver again, how could there be any unwilling, it was simply a thousand and ten thousand willing, Fang Mancang held the ingot of silver tightly, his face was so smiling that he couldn't see his teeth, and said vigorously in his mouth: "Then please take care of Grandpa Mu more, my mother-in-law, don't look at her thin and not smart, but the milk is very good, this is still not full, this is full, it is not a problem to feed the three little boys, and keep the little master in the house who feeds the white and chubby." ā€

Where does the wooden housekeeper have time to talk to him now, well, he snorted, and was about to leave with Sister-in-law Fang, Sister-in-law Fang remembered to pack some clothes at this time, and asked the wooden housekeeper to wait for a while, and the wooden housekeeper allowed her to clean up slowly, and said: "I said Fang's family, let's go quickly, the master can wait for you in the house, you have to eat the board if you are late." Besides, as long as the master looks up to you and serves the nurse as the little boy's close-quarters, he will enjoy the four seasons. Sister-in-law Fang then took the child and went to the front yard where the masters of the Hou Mansion lived.
