Ruixue was searching her intestines and leading Lei Zi's daughter-in-law to speak, for fear that she would not wake up if she fell asleep, but when she saw that the ginseng soup was ready, she hurriedly took it and blew it slightly cold, so she let Lei Zi's daughter-in-law drink it while it was hot.

Soon a layer of blush appeared on Lei Zi's daughter-in-law's face, Rui Xue felt that the hand she was holding her arm was much stronger than just now, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and was about to speak, when she heard a shout outside the door, "The midwife is here, the midwife is here." ”

Soon, Aunt Yun brought in a fat woman, the woman was wearing a gray dress, her sideburns were a little crooked, and her appearance was not kind, and even a little fierce.

As soon as she entered the house, she sat on the chair, didn't look at the mother, and shouted to eat tea first, Aunt Yun was anxious and half dead, but she didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly poured her a cup, and watched her finish half of it, so she cautiously urged, "Old sister, my daughter-in-law here has been in pain for almost an hour, and the amniotic fluid is gone, you can help take a look." ”

The woman's triangular eyes rolled and said, "Big sister, what are you anxious about, people give birth to children, day and night, it's only an hour, it's still early." ”

Second Aunt Yun was annoyed in her heart, but she didn't dare to offend this life-saving straw, so she only accompanied her to beg carefully, and listened to Rui Xue's face pale, because it was not her own business, it was not good to intervene.

At this time, Leizi's daughter-in-law exhaled again, and the midwife felt that she had enough shelves, and stepped forward, and before she could visit, she drove everyone in the house like a chicken, "Just leave one person to give me a hand, and the rest will go out." ”

Zhang Liuniang and a little daughter-in-law looked at Aunt Yun, saw her nodding, and retreated, Rui Xue also got up and wanted to leave, but Lei Zi's daughter-in-law grabbed her arm and didn't let go, her eyes were full of pleading, Rui Xue was embarrassed, and she was reluctant to let her be afraid, and she was about to open her mouth to discuss with the woman, but she didn't want to, the woman saw that Rui Xue didn't move, and felt that her authority was being questioned, so she reached out and grabbed her, and shouted, "Let you go out, you don't understand." ”

Rui Xue saw that her big hand on her sleeve was even stained with black ash, so she couldn't help it anymore, such a person can be a midwife, it's too hateful.

She slapped the dirty hand off her arm, and without waiting for the woman to get angry, she said coldly, "Put away your face, you are invited to deliver the baby, not to show prestige!" If you give us the child today, the mother and child are safe, I will reward you with two taels of silver, if so, the mother and son have a bad one, I will make you regret it for the rest of your life, you can do it yourself! ”

When the midwife heard this, her face was filled with annoyance, her eyes were dripping and rolling, and she had a small calculation in her heart, she delivered the baby once a weekday, but two hundred yuan, if she really got two taels of silver, it would take a big advantage, and it would not be in vain for her to put on the shelf just now, but who is this woman, you have to ask clearly, in case the family can't get the money, wouldn't it be a vain joy?

"Who do you think you are! It's so deceitful to be my mother-in-law! ”

Rui Xue's gaze at her was even sharper, "There is no one in Yunjia Village who doesn't know my Zhao Niangzi, everything in the family is bad, just not bad silver!" If you want to get a reward, show me the skill! ”

Mrs. Fan's eyes lit up, "It's the Zhao family who makes tofu!" ”

Rui Xue nodded, and Mrs. Fan was about to step forward and stammer, but she was glared at by Rui Xue, "I don't believe anyone, and I can't believe Mrs. Zhao." ”

"Then hurry up and deliver the baby, I want the mother and child to be safe!"

"Hey, hey, good!" Mrs. Fan, who heard the promise of rewarding silver, was like being beaten with chicken blood, and hurriedly opened Lei Zi's daughter-in-law's legs to visit, and was about to reach out to touch it, but was stopped by Rui Xue and called the second aunt Yun who was a little stunned next to her, "Make a basin of hot water and let her wash her hands!" ”

Aunt Yun came back to her senses and immediately went out to Zhang Luo, and soon Mrs. Fan endured the heat, washed her hands, and reached out to Ruixue in a flattering manner, "Lady Zhao, take a look at the clean." ”

Rui Xue had the intention of killing her at this time, she didn't raise her eyelids, gritted her teeth and said, "Delivery!" ”

Mrs. Fan hurriedly replied, "Okay, good, this daughter-in-law is protected by Mrs. Zhao, and she will definitely be able to give birth to a big fat boy." ”

After she finished speaking, she asked Lei Zi's daughter-in-law to follow her shout, and Rui Xue patted Lei Zi's daughter-in-law, "Don't worry, it will be fine soon." ”

Lei Zi's daughter-in-law used all her strength, and Mrs. Fan also had some ability and experience, and after tossing for half an hour, she finally gave birth to a little doll covered with mucus.

Mrs. Fan carried the doll's legs upside down, slapped the big rough hand on the buttocks, the doll immediately cried, her voice was loud and powerful, and it was obviously a very healthy one, Aunt Yun trembled and took a piece of muslin cloth to wipe the eldest grandson clean, wrapped a small quilt, and carried it out to report the good news to Uncle Yun and others.

Leizi's daughter-in-law was exhausted and drowsy, and the arm holding Ruixue was released.

Rui Xue barely stood up, and saw that Mrs. Fan was picking up the afterbirth, so she said, "Serve well, I'll have someone bring you silver when I go home." ”

Mrs. Fan immediately thanked her and wanted to send her off, but was stopped by Rui Xue.

When she got out, the cold wind at midnight blew, Rui Xue shook her spirit, only to feel that her clothes were already soaked, and she turned her head to look at the people who were talking and laughing around the child, and slowly walked out of the yard and walked home.

There was a light on in the hall, obviously waiting for her to come back, Rui Xue's heart was warm, and when she opened the door, she saw Zhao Fengnian and Wu Yu sitting opposite each other, and when she came back, she got up and said, "Why did you come back so late?" ”

Ruixue shook her head tiredly, "It's born, it's a big fat boy." ”

Zhao Fengnian and the two remembered the appearance of the second elder of the Yun family looking forward to their grandson on weekdays, and they were happy for them, Rui Xue went into the house and took two taels of silver and handed it to Wu Yu, "Send it to the Yun family, give it to the midwife, and then sleep, you don't have to come over." ”

"Okay, sister, go to bed early." Wu Yu responded and ran out.

Ruixue got on the kang at this time, took off her clothes and got into the quilt, and let out a long breath.

Zhao Fengnian put the book away, blew out the lamp again, and then lay down beside her and asked, "But, the birth didn't go well?" ”

"It's not going well, Leizi's daughter-in-law almost died, and giving birth to a child is a ghost gate."

"Didn't you invite a midwife?" The Zhao family only has two brothers, no sisters, and Zhao's father's concubines have never given birth to children, so Zhao Fengnian has never seen anyone give birth to a child, and everything will be fine if he consciously invites a midwife, I don't understand why there is still danger?

Rui Xue was funny and wanted to explain, but she was so sleepy that she was half asleep and half awake, and only said perfunctorily, "That midwife is not good..."

Zhao Fengnian wanted to ask again, but she heard her rarely snoring, and then she remembered that with her enthusiasm, she must have been busy and tired, so she put it away, stretched out her hand to tuck the quilt for her, and waited quietly for Wu Yu's footsteps in the yard before she fell asleep with confidence.

Early the next morning, when Zhao Fengnian woke up, he saw Ruixue still lying beside him, not like usual, half an hour earlier than him.

He got up lightly, planning to make breakfast with his own hands, Ruixue could eat it when he got up, but when he went to the ground, he suddenly saw that her face was wrong, as if she was a little flushed, he immediately went to probe his forehead, sure enough, it was scary, and he didn't care about any etiquette, he reached out and touched the quilt again, his clothes were already soaked, he couldn't wait to give himself two slaps, why did he sleep so hard last night, and he didn't find that she had a fever.

He jumped off the ground and went to the box to rummage through a small wooden box, found the pill with the word wind and cold written on it, and brought warm tea, wanting to feed Rui Xue to eat, helpless, he was the eldest young master before he was poisoned, and he had never done this job, after being poisoned, Rui Xue was also unconscious when he fed him medicine, so he had no experience at all, he was busy for a long time, half of the tea was spilled, but the pill still didn't put it in his mouth.

Wu Yu swept the yard, and went to the front yard to open the door to welcome Zhang Dahe and Qian Heitan to come in to make tofu, but before he saw his sister get up, he ran to the window and asked, "Hasn't my sister gotten up yet?" ”

Zhao Fengnian immediately seemed to see a savior, "Brother Yu, come in and help." ”

Wu Yu was puzzled, pushed the door and looked at it, he felt bad, and immediately ran over, "What's wrong with my sister?" ”

"I have a fever, but I can't feed the medicine." Zhao Fengnian was so anxious that he couldn't wait to help him eat it.

Wu Yu glared at Zhao Fengnian fiercely, gently opened his sister's mouth, fed a sip of tea, and then put the pill behind his tongue, lifted his chin, and the pill slid into his throat, and after feeding two more mouthfuls of water, he completely fell into his stomach.

Zhao Fengnian breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat that rushed out of his head, "You go out first, I'm going to change her clothes." ”

Wu Yu's face was not good, but he didn't want his sister to continue to suffer, so he opened the door and went out.

Zhao Fengnian took out the dry clothes in the cabinet, his fingers trembled a little, and he took off the wet clothes for Rui Xue one by one, his face became redder and redder, and he was left with only a belly pocket and dirty pants, and the large piece of white skin like jade made his heart beat wildly, and he tried his best to put on the dry clothes for her, but suddenly saw a few pieces of black green on her left arm, and immediately picked it up and looked at it carefully, looking like someone pinched it with his hands...

"I'm here... What's wrong? Rui Xue woke up in a daze, feeling weak, and couldn't help but ask, so startled that Zhao Fengnian immediately threw down her arm and smashed it on the futon, it didn't hurt, but it made Rui Xue more sober, looked down and glanced at her body, immediately hugged her chest, and stared at Zhao Fengnian.

Zhao Fengnian waved his hand again and again in embarrassment, his face turned even redder, "You have a fever, your body is soaked, I am changing your clothes." ”

Rui Xue raised her eyebrows, wanting to say that she could let him go out and change it herself, but just raising her arm, she already seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and she was afraid that she couldn't do it by changing clothes, so she had to close her eyes and say, "Then let's change." After speaking, he closed his eyes, and was still shy and apprehensive in his heart, but he couldn't bear the wind and cold, and after a while, he fell asleep again.

Zhao Fengnian picked up the dry clothes, carefully put it on her, tied the last belt, exhaled a long breath, carried her back to his bed, and then escaped out of the house.

When Rui Xue woke up again, she opened her eyes and saw that Wu Yu was sleeping next to her, and Zhao Fengnian was sitting at the kang table with her back to the window.

The sunlight spilled in from the window, shining on Zhao Fengnian's body, as if he had been plated with a layer of golden light, different from the cold appearance of the past, extremely warm and dazzling, Rui Xue thought that she was lying in his arms half-naked just now, and couldn't help but blushed again.
