This congratulations made Shen Xi slightly surprised, he blinked his eyes, and asked a little strangely: "Wu Gongzi, you suddenly didn't have a reason to congratulate, but you don't know where this joy came from?" ”

Wu Xingyu showed an indescribable smile on his face, and shook his head slightly: "Of course, Shen Gongzi has to verify this kind of thing." After staying in Fucheng for many days, he had to rush back to Qingliu County after sending the long case, and he could no longer talk to Shen Gongzi and said goodbye. ”

Although Wu Xingyu did not say it very clearly, his meaning was clear, and it was obvious that Shen Xi's ranking in this government examination was very high.

Shen Xi was a little curious, and went to the front of the government with Su Tong, at this time, the candidates outside the government office, but everyone who saw Shen Xi pointed their fingers, and they didn't know what was going on until Shen Xi went up to see it.

There are two circles of people listed on a piece of paper, twenty in the inner circle and thirty in the outer circle. And in the position directly above the inner circle, there is a person whose name is slightly raised, which is his Shen Xi's name.

What this means is that in this government examination, he Shen Xi got the position of the head of the case.

Seeing this, Shen Xi was not happy, but instead had a slightly bitter smile on his face.

Shoot out the birds......

Shen Xi looked down, the second place was Wu Xingyu who said "congratulations" to him just now, and the third place was Su Tong, who came to see the long case with Shen Xi.

Su Tong couldn't help but shake his head slightly when he saw that his name was listed behind Shen Xi and Wu Xingyu, but he seemed to have known this result for a long time, and only after sighing did he smile and said to Shen Xi: "Brother Shen is at the head of the case, which is gratifying, no wonder Wu Gongzi also wants to say congratulations sourly." ”

When the first case of the government test occurred, Su Tong showed his disdain for Wu Xingyu, but in the end, Wu Xingyu directly won the second place in the government test, and the ranking was still above his big favorite, so Su Tong's tone was very wrong.

Shen Xi didn't care, and replied: "Rejoice and rejoice." ”

No matter how you say it, they are all candidates of the same year, and their names are listed on the same long case, so they must have little communication in the future.

After reading the long case, Su Tong was in a lost mood, and Shen Xi couldn't be happy.

Su Tong felt embarrassed because he was ranked behind Shen Xi and Wu Xingyu. After all, Shen Xi and Wu Xingyu are the youngest among the candidates in this year, and he is also twenty years old, so he is disappointed that he can't pass the test for two hairy boys.

And Shen Xi found out that he was listed as the head of the case. The strange gaze of others is not admiration or jealousy, but suspicion.

There were rumors before that the reason why Shen Xi was able to pass the government test was because Hui Niang stuffed silver into the government. Now that Shen Xi is listed at the top of the case again, it is tantamount to being forcibly pushed to the forefront, and outsiders may not know what kind of nonsense they will make up.

"Brother Shen, you might as well be the boss for your brother, how about we go to the wine shop for a celebration banquet at noon?" After a short loss, Su Tong quickly showed his bearing and sent an invitation to Shen Xi.

Shen Xi remembered that the candidates who were in the teahouse just now had asked Su Tong to eat and drink together, and if he went with him, those people would definitely not be welcome. It's just self-deprecating.

Shen Xi saluted and said goodbye: "I have to rush to inform my family of the good news in the future, and I can't accompany him." Brother Su, there will be a chance to get together again in the future. ”

Su Tong nodded: "Okay." ”

The two officially said goodbye, and Shen Xi hurried home.

Su Tong reminded him to be careful before, and he didn't care, but now that he has been hit by the case, he has to be more vigilant. Those candidates who were angry because they couldn't pass the government exam didn't have the courage to go to the provincial capital to complain, but it was possible to block him from being angry with him.

Shen Xi did not take the street, but walked through the streets and alleys. Also keep an eye out for anyone following along the way.

Shen Xi was somewhat anti-stalking, and hid several times, and after verifying that there was no one, he went to the back door of the pharmacy in a panic. Reach out and knock on the door.

"Open the door." Shen Xi shouted.

"It's Brother Shen Xi who is back." Lu Xi'er's voice came first, and soon, Ning Er came over and opened the door.

Shen Xi trotted all the way back, panting, and after entering the door, he first found a small bench to sit down and rest.

At this time, Zhou had a big belly and walked out with the support of Hui Niang: "Han Wa'er." Why don't you go through the front door and go through the back door, it's still like this......"

Shen Xi coughed twice, and then said helplessly: "I'm afraid that someone will follow me and it will be bad for me." ”

Hui Niang glanced at Shen Xi and said, "We are all waiting for the results of your house exam, you are good, play hide and seek." What was the final result? ”

Shen Xi said with a bitter face: "The head of the case." ”

"The head? Isn't that the first? Hui Niang reacted for a moment before she smiled dumbly, "Xiaolang, aunt heard me right, right?" Are you saying that you took the first exam? ”

Shen Xi nodded.

Hui Niang and Zhou's were pleasantly surprised, and Zhou's excitement suddenly became very happy and sad, and his stomach began to hurt again. Hui Niang hurriedly helped her sit down and waved her hand to Ning Er: "Why don't you go inside and call Sister Yun'er out?" ”

When Xie Yun'er heard the news, she asked about the situation, and she was also happy for Shen Xi. But after checking Zhou's pulse, there was worry on his face: "It looks like ...... It's going to give birth. ”

Hui Niang asked in surprise: "No, this amniotic water hasn't broken yet." ”

Xie Yun'er has superb medical skills, and her face is serious: "The time should be almost up, hurry up and help my sister inside, and let Ning'er and them go to boil hot water." ”

Now Hui Niang was a little panicked, originally she rushed back from the main hall of the Chamber of Commerce to ask Shen Xi about her results, but she didn't expect that things were unlucky, Shen Xi had just won the case here, and Zhou was so happy that even the delivery date was a few days earlier.

Zhou's childbirth, the shop can no longer open for business, Hui Niang hurriedly asked Shen Xi to write a notice of "the owner is happy", asked Xiu'er to go out and post it, and then instructed the preparation of the guy to deliver the baby for Zhou's, water basins, hot water, towels and scissors are necessary.

Although Xie Yun'er is a doctor, she has no experience in delivering babies, and at the moment she can only provide "technical references" rather than specific details, and she still has to go to the midwife.

The backyard of the pharmacy was in chaos, boiling water, closing the door of the store, the maids didn't know where the midwife lived, and Hui Niang had to go in person, as for Shen Mingjun's side, he also had to be notified.

Xie Yun'er stayed in front of the bed, always paying attention to Zhou's physical condition, and a few maids were busy, cutting some shabby clothes, and then boiling them in boiling water, which would be useful for a while.

As for the baby cloth, the Zhou family had already prepared it, and they needed to find someone to go to the Shen family to get it.

Shen Xi wanted to go into the house to help, but was kicked out by Xie Yun'er, Xie Yun'er glared at him and said, "This is not a place where children can come. ”

In this way, Shen Xi could only sit side by side on the bench in the courtyard with the two little Lori. Seeing the family busy, he sighed: "Mother." ”

……

……

Zhou's delivery was a bit special, and the pain was extremely strong at the beginning. The sound in the room was like killing a pig.

Soon Hui Niang invited the midwife. The two entered the house together, and the intensity of Zhou's screaming inside continued unabated.

Because Zhou's delivery was not on the second floor, but in the rooms of several maids in the backyard, only separated from the courtyard by a door. The voice was so strong that even Lu Xi'er and Lin Dai couldn't help but cover their ears in horror. To them, it was as if something horrific was happening in the house.

As the hot water boiled, Shen Mingjun got the news and rushed back. Shen Mingjun was just about to step into the courtyard, when he suddenly thought that the courtyard was full of women, and he couldn't help but retract his feet again. The more miserable Zhou's shouts inside, the more worried he became, but even if he was worried, he could only wait for news outside the back door.

"Dad, why are you still stuck with these at this time? Go into the yard and wait. How else would it be like to walk around outside the back door? Shen Xi went over and pulled Shen Mingjun by the hand.

Shen Mingjun's face was hesitant, but when he saw Hui Niang coming out of the house, he nodded to him, then scratched his head and walked into the backyard with some embarrassment.

Hui Niang came over full of worries and said to Shen Mingjun: "Wen Po said that my sister's situation this time is a bit special, and it is likely to be a difficult birth, so that the family should be psychologically prepared." ”

Shen Mingjun was flustered when he heard this: "He'er, she is no longer the first child, how can this be?" ”

One excited. Shen Mingjun called Zhou's boudoir name again.

Usually when a woman gives birth, it is usually the first child that is the most difficult to give birth, and it is very easy to have a difficult birth. But when the first child is born, it will be reborn. Generally, it will be smooth and smooth, and it is rare for a second child like Zhou's to have dystocia. This can only be explained by the fact that Zhou has not given birth in these years, and the interval between the first and second children is too long.

Hui Niang shook her head, she still had to go back to take care of the situation inside, and she couldn't stay.

Wait for Hui Niang to turn around and go back to the room. Shen Xi originally wanted his father to sit down and wait, but seeing Shen Mingjun's helpless appearance, he knew that Shen Mingjun couldn't sit still at all at this time.

Listening to Zhou's painful screams inside, Lin Dai also panicked, pulled Shen Xi's arm and said nervously: "Mother...... Mother, will she be okay? ”

Shen Xi shook his head and smiled comfortingly at Lin Dai.

In fact, Shen Xi himself has no bottom in his heart, but it stands to reason that there are midwives in it, as well as Xie Yun'er, a goddess doctor who has a wonderful hand to rejuvenate, so there shouldn't be much of a problem.

After half an hour, Zhou's voice was hoarse when he shouted, and there was still no news inside.

Shen Mingjun cried with a sad face, what he was most afraid of was that Hui Niang came out and asked him: "Protect the big or the small." "He doesn't have a choice at this time.

Shen Xi waited a little impatiently, and took advantage of Lu'er to carry the water inside, and Shen Xi followed him into the house. But before he could get close to the bed, Hui Niang came up and covered Shen Xi's eyes and pushed him out: "Xiaolang, don't say that you are still young, even if you grow up, you can't go to this kind of place." ”

Shen Xi wanted to say, what is this scene, no matter how big the scene is, I have seen it......

But after all, his strength was not as strong as Hui Niang, and he was pushed into the yard.

"Auntie, I want to go in and help, do you know I can do acupuncture, or can I help my mother?" Shen Xi said urgently.

Hui Niang shook her head and said, "There is your Aunt Xie inside, and your mother will be fine." ”

Shen Xi nodded...... Thankfully, although Zhou had a difficult birth, he did not have a major hemorrhage, which means that the situation has not progressed to the worst.

Shen Xi could only sit back and wait.

After another half an hour, a baby's cry finally came from inside, and the cry was so loud that Shen Mingjun's father and son's hanging hearts finally let go.

"It's a daughter." Hui Niang walked out, her face was slightly complicated, after all, the Zhou family had said more than once that what she and Shen Mingjun wanted was a son.

Just after Shen Mingjun was surprised, his face suddenly became gloomy, and Hui Niang added, "Brother-in-law, don't worry, my sister is in her stomach...... And one more. ”
