"I've been here, Liu Erniang said that it wasn't so fast, but the amniotic water broke, and I would call her when my stomach hurt."

"Really? Is it just waiting? Will this work? Don't hold my son back. Jizong stroked Shumei's unusually big belly, looked at Wu Ju with suspicious eyes, and then looked at Shumei.

"It's okay, women give birth to children like this."

"Okay, A-Niang is from here, A-Niang said the same, then it must be no problem, wait a minute! I've been waiting for so long, and I don't care about waiting for a while and a half. ”

Tang Boyi, who was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, was worried when he heard such a conversation! If Wen Xiaomei could have been sent to the hospital earlier, Xiao Youchen would not have lost his mother as soon as he was born.

"Jizong, Jizong, you come out, I have something to tell you."

Hearing Tang Boyi's voice, Shumei was really a little surprised, "Boyi is also here?" ”

"If he has to come with him, I can't stop him, okay, you can rest! I'm going to see what farts he has to put out. Jizong reluctantly let go of Shumei's hand and impatiently went out of the room.

As soon as he went out, Bo Yi pulled Jizong into the courtyard and persuaded him to send Shumei to the hospital in the town. At the beginning, Jizong felt that it was unnecessary and resolutely opposed Boyi's excessive approach. But Bo Yi was willing to give up, and put Wen Xiaomei's experience in front of Jizong, almost begging for him to think about Shumei's safety.

Jizong felt that what Bo Yi said was not entirely unreasonable, and considering the safety of the child and Shumei, after all, this child was looking forward to the stars and the moon, so he reluctantly agreed.

When he returned to the house, he looked for a quilt in the closet and told Shumei about Boyi's idea, "Shumei! Bo Yi suggested taking you to the hospital to give birth, and I will take you to the hospital in town. ”

Shumei is also the first time, and she doesn't know much about this aspect, "Is this necessary?" ”

"Yes! What kind of crime did you suffer when you went to the hospital? Jizong's grandmother gave birth to eight daughters and a child, all of whom were born at home, aren't they all full of children and grandchildren now? I was born at home, so isn't it true that all the children born in our entire village are born at home? Don't toss around, it costs money and energy. Hearing Jizong say that he was going to the hospital, Wu Juke was not happy and opposed it vigorously.

"What about Little Sister Wen? Auntie, hurry up and pack your things! This is your own grandson and daughter-in-law. ”

Jizong's words made Wu Ju speechless, and she didn't know how to object.

Jizong carried the quilt to the courtyard and spread it on the small cart he made himself in the courtyard, and Bo Yi was also helping beside him.

Everyone pulled the cart and rushed to the town hospital in a hurry. Jizong completed the formalities, Shumei was admitted to the waiting room of the hospital, and Jizong stayed in front of the bed every inch.

Wu Ju, Zhang Binglin, and Tang Boyi stood on the wooden bench outside the clinic.

After a while, a doctor with a nurse came in to give Shumei a prenatal check-up. There were several pregnant women in the waiting room, and their families were waiting. As soon as the doctor came in, he asked Jizong to pull up the curtain, and the doctor lifted Shumei's stomach and began to press and examine.

This is an old doctor about fifty years old, and he seems to be quite experienced, "Yo! Is this still a twin? ”

"Twins?" Shumei and Jizong asked in unison, both of them a little hard to believe their ears.

"You don't know yet? Look how obvious this is! One on a side, let's steal the fun! This is a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes! The doctor pointed to Shumei's belly, which looked a little like Luo Feng, and explained to them, with a little envy in his tone, "Rest well, if you are hungry, you can eat something quickly, and then you will have the strength to live, and if your stomach hurts, you will come to the consultation room and call us." ”

"Okay, thank you, doctor!" Jizong smiled and sent the doctor out of the waiting room, his heart was full of joy, and as soon as he returned to the bedside, he went to touch Shumei's belly, "Shumei, twins, did you hear that?" You're amazing, aren't you? Give me two in this life, you are a great hero of our family! No wonder your belly is so big than theirs, daughter-in-law, thank you for your hard work, I will definitely be doubly good to you in the future......"

Shumei was also smiling like a flower, looking at Jizong's happy smile, she couldn't stop smiling.

Early in the morning of the second day, Shumei's stomach reacted, at first it was only a slight pain, Shumei saw Jizong crawling on the bed and sleeping soundly, and did not disturb him, and waited until her stomach hurt so much that she couldn't bear it, she woke Jizong up.

"Jizong, I'm afraid I'm going to give birth, go and call a doctor."

Jizong rubbed his confused eyes as he walked, and hurriedly ran out to find a doctor. The doctor pushed Shumei into the delivery room with the bed cart, and everyone waited anxiously outside the delivery room.

The isolation effect of the delivery room door is not good, Shumei's cry came out of the door, and Jizong was anxious to hear it! After wandering around the door of the delivery room several times, he finally sat down on a long wooden bench in the corridor in despair, perhaps tired.

Tang Boyi was also so nervous that he walked to the courtyard of the hospital alone to breathe.

The courtyard of the town hospital was covered with golden fallen leaves, and a few unknown birds were chirping in the trees, looking particularly depressed. Bo Yi leaned against a big tree, smoking cigarettes one after another, the smoke swirling on his face, and his expression was a little heavy.

Zhang Jizong sat on the stool with his head in his hands, the red I-shirt on his body was stained with brick ash, and the pair of army-green canvas shoes on his feet could no longer see the original color.

Zhang Binglin sat beside Jizong, wrapped in tobacco leaves as if nothing happened. Since Wu Ju knew that it was twins, she was more interested in Shumei, to be precise, she was interested in the child in her belly, she wandered anxiously at the door of the delivery room, and muttered from time to time, "Is it a golden doll?" Tossed all the way over, but couldn't give birth for half a day. ”

Zhang Binglin wrapped the tobacco leaves, took out the cigarette stick he carried with him, knocked lightly on the wooden chair a few times, inserted the wrapped tobacco leaves into the cigarette butts, took out a match and lit the cigarette roll.

"I'm sorry, but the hospital doesn't allow smoking." A nurse in a nurse's uniform said to Zhang Binglin with a smile.

Zhang Binglin looked at the fairy-like nurse, smiled awkwardly, and quickly snuffed out the cigarette butt.

Hearing the nurse's voice, Zhang Jizong subconsciously glanced up. Even though his face absorbed too much of the sun's color, he could still see that he was a handsome young man.

"Who is Kang Shumei's family? Is Kang Shumei's family not there? "The door to the delivery room suddenly opened, and a doctor wearing a mask, was there shouting.

"I am, I am, I'm his man." When Zhang Jizong heard the sound, he quickly got up from the chair and walked quickly to the door of the delivery room.

Zhang Binglin and Wu Ju also followed, and before the doctor could speak, Wu Ju hurriedly asked, "Is it with a handle?" ”

The highly educated doctor, who was not used to seeing such patriarchal and ignorant people, replied with a serious face, "You will know when you are born." ”

"O my fathers! Haven't you given birth yet? What kind of bullshit hospital, it's not as good as Liu Erniang who delivered a baby in our village, and it's so hard to give birth to a child......"

"Ah Niang......" Zhang Jizong yelled, she stopped chattering, stopped dancing, and stood aside and muttered quietly.

"Doctor, how is my daughter-in-law?"

"Sign it! Letter of responsibility, is the critical moment to protect adults or children? ”

The doctor handed him a copy of the agreement and asked him to sign it, and he looked at it carefully, every word was about his life, his heart tightened, his hands trembled violently, and fear and fear came to the door.

He didn't want to give up his daughter-in-law and child, because they had experienced too much in the past five years, and the child had been looking forward to it for five years.

"Jizong, you sign! It's definitely to protect the child! You don't know your own situation, this child is expensive, you can't be emotional, this family's incense can't be broken in your hands, you can find it again if your daughter-in-law is gone, I don't know if there is still a fate between this child and you! Sign now! Keep the kids. Wu Ju came to Jizong's side and persuaded him in a low voice.

"Doctor, is it true that if we sign an insurance officer, our child will not be saved?" Jizong didn't listen to what Wu Ju was saying at all, and after struggling in his heart, he raised his head and asked the doctor.

"Not necessarily, we're just telling you the worst, because your daughter-in-law is twins, and the first child is not in a very correct position, so there will be a certain risk."

After listening to the doctor's words, Jizong did not hesitate to sign for the child.

The doctor took the letter of responsibility and went back to the delivery room. Then there was a long wait, and the joy of being a father before was gone, and Jizong's heart was now filled with endless fear, his world turned from color to gray, and his whole heart felt as uncomfortable as if it had been burned.

Little by little, time walked and walked......

The door of the delivery room finally opened, and when he heard the doctor call his name, Jizong rushed to the door of the delivery room like crazy.

"Doctor, how is my daughter-in-law? Raw? Is she okay? Jizong's first concern was Shumei's safety, and he asked Shumei about her situation vigorously.

Wu Ju is still the same old tune, anxious to know whether the child is safe, whether it is a man or a woman.

The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Jizong with a smile, "Congratulations! Mother and daughter are safe, such a beautiful pair of sisters. ”

"Thank you, doctor, thank you, it's safe, it's safe, when can I go in to see my daughter-in-law and child?"

"Don't worry, you wait at the door, and the nurse will push them out later."

Jizong thanked the doctor again, and the doctor returned to the delivery room with a smile.

The big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and Jizong finally showed a smile on his face, and sat back in his chair with a long sigh of relief.

Wu Ju's face was longer than a horse's face, and Zhang Binglin didn't say a word, secretly happy that he was happy to have two little granddaughters, in his heart, whether it was a man or a woman, it was the blood of his Zhang family, and it was a happy event worth rejoicing, as long as the child was safe and healthy.
