Chapter 4 Section 13 Do You Want to Change Your Child?
Finally, when it was my day of giving birth, the people in the East Palace were nervously listening to the movements of the Mingxia Hall every day.
Xiaowu is also due to delivery, and I can't go back myself, so I send a little eunuch back every day to take a look. By the way, I would also like to report my situation so that my family will not worry.
On this day, news came from home that Xiao Wu had begun to have seizures.
I thought I would be better than Mr. Xiaowu, thinking that she was born in front of me. All morning, I waited anxiously for news from home. But until lunchtime, the eunuch sent to wait for news had not returned.
Lunch was delivered, and I didn't want to move a bite. Xiaocui persuaded me on the side, "Miss, why don't you eat a little, you are now eating two people's meals alone, even if it is for the baby in your belly, you have to eat." ”
Shan Wan also persuaded beside her, and added another bowl of soup and said, "If you don't eat, let's drink some chicken soup first, and this soup should be drunk while it's hot." As he spoke, he brought the soup to my lips, scooped a spoonful, looked at me with a mouthful of it, and begged me to take a sip.
Seeing them like this, I had no choice but to take two sips.
After filling in my stomach a little stuff, I stood up and prepared to go to the door to see if the little eunuch had returned. The moment I straightened up, a wave of pain hit me, and I jerked down on the table. Xiaocui and Shan Wan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
I smiled at them and said, "I think I'm going to give birth too." ”
They said "ah" together, one helped me into the room, and the other hurried to arrange various matters.
There was chaos in the Mingxia Palace.
Those lovers also rushed to offer condolences when they heard the news. At this time, Shanwan came in and asked for instructions, if you want to go and inform the queen, I said, "Don't do it for the time being." It's still early. The queen mother has not been in good health recently, and giving birth to a child is a very nervous and even terrible thing, and the update is the fastest."
After thinking about it, he said, "Your Highness, don't notify me." He'll be back in the evening anyway. ”
The last time I had Meow Meow, it completely freaked him out. Although he is a few years older now, he seems to be more sensible than before. But this kind of thing, whether it can stimulate him or not, is good. Anyway, they can't help much, and when they are born, it will not be too late to notify them to come and see the baby.
After another hour, my labor pain was still not intensive enough. The two midwives in the palace said, "Concubine, it's still early, it's good to be born tonight." ”
Since it's still early, I'll tell a few of my loved ones to go back and rest, so why sit here? Besides, there were too many people, and the dormitory was noisy.
Zhang and Wang said a few more words and left, but only Zuo Ying insisted on staying.
She helped me squeeze my shoulders and asked, "Your Royal Highness, I heard that your sister also gave birth today?" ”
That's when I was in a throb of pain. He snorted "yes".
Xiaocui said unceremoniously, "Zuo Liangren, my young lady is in pain like this, where can I still have the strength to chat with you." You'd better go back first. ”
Zuo Ying also said politely, "What do you know, at this time, I want to talk to the concubine." This is called distraction. It doesn't hurt so much when you talk about it. It is also easy to pass the time. ”
Xiao Cui listened. Well, it makes sense. So his face was a little pale, and he didn't drive anymore.
Zuo Ying asked again: "Then is she born now?" ”
I breathed a sigh of relief and replied to her, "Not yet, I had a seizure early in the morning, and I haven't given birth yet, so I'm really dying." That Xiaoxi is like missing, and you came back to report a letter before you were born, what a stupid minion! Next time, I will not go to him for this kind of thing, don't rush me to death. Ouch ......"
It hurts so much, do those two midwives know how to deliver babies? I'm in so much pain that I don't have to give birth until the evening? Then my little life will not end, wipe my sweat and say, "You take care of yourself first, you are dying in pain, and you are still worrying about other people's affairs." ”
At this time, Zuo Ying said, "Why don't I go back and take a look for the concubine." ”
Why is she so enthusiastic today? However, I'm really worried about Xiao Wu, she's young and firstborn, but don't let anything happen. Since Zuo Ying volunteered to help me inquire about the news, let her go.
Zuo Ying asked Manager Zhang to arrange a car and left quickly.
Xiaocui and Shan Wan looked at each other, looked at me with puzzled expressions, and asked, "If you go to the Taiwei Mansion and find a random eunuch, why do you want her to go out in person?" ”
I gasped in pain and said, "She's going, so let her go." ”
Almost an hour later, Zuo Ying came back, her face full of joy.
I hurriedly asked, "Raw?" She smiled and nodded.
Xiao Cui and Shan Wan chased after each other and asked, "What is it that gave birth?" ”
She smiled mysteriously and whispered in my ear, "Your sister has given birth to a child!" But I want them to block the message for the time being. Now no one knows that your sister has given birth except for your parents, your sister and brother-in-law, the midwife and me. ”
"Oh, thank you for your hard work, go down and rest."
"What do I have to work for, anyway, I take the car to the land."
"It's still hard, Xiaocui, take Zuo Liangren to the front hall to sit, make her a pot of tea, and prepare a few dishes
Zuo Ying smiled and said, "Concubine, you are exaggerating, I am not a rice bucket, I have to replenish food when I go out by car." ”
I tried to restrain another round of labor pain, and said with a pale face, "You go out and sit for a while, I don't have the strength to talk to you now, you go out for some tea and some food." I seem to be about to give birth, and it's scary to give birth, so it's better for you to go out, I don't want my horrible appearance to be seen. ”
Zuo Ying wanted to say something, but was dragged out by Xiao Cui's arm. Shan Wan asked strangely, "Why is she so enthusiastic today?" ”
I couldn't speak anymore, and the enormous, dense pain made me finally cry out. Because last time, he was so scared that he ran away after hearing my screams, so I didn't scream today. I don't know if they listened to me and didn't shout too back, I'm afraid that he is still outside like he did last time, and I don't want him to be scared away by my screams again.
But when the great pain came over me, I couldn't help but let out a scream that even I felt terrible. Fortunately, the child did not toss me into the evening, as the midwife said, and when the sun was still setting on the window lattice, I could already hear the child's first cry. At this time, Zuo Ying had already come from the front hall and was standing in front of the bed.
In the moments before I gave birth, she evacuated the palace maids who were scurrying around the house, leaving only Xiaocui, Shanwan and the two midwives and, of course, herself.
Because of the shortage of manpower, she did not hesitate to roll up her sleeves and serve in person. Looking at the beads of sweat on her forehead, Xiao Cui said movingly, "Zuo Liangren, you have worked hard, you can sit and rest for a while, just let me and Wanwan work together." ”
After the child was born, Shan Wan wanted to give the queen and the Tai Bao good news, but Zuo Ying stopped her.
Under everyone's shocked gaze, she leaned into my ear and whispered, "Your Royal Highness, your sister's birth is now in my Qiulanxuan, and I have brought him here with the car." ”
