Chapter 4: The Night Before Delivery

On April 19, before dawn, Yu Cai called out and said that he was uncomfortable, and Fang Jian asked in a panic, "What's wrong?" Is it going to give birth? ”

Yu Cai struggled from the pain and let out a voice, "The days are coming. ”

"So what to do?" Fang Jian is also a first-time father, and he doesn't know what kind of life method this child is, so he is naturally at a loss at this time.

"Find Mom and Dad." Yu Cai was already in pain and wanted to shrink her body into a ball, but due to her stomach, she could only change her body back and forth.

Fang Jian glanced at Yu Cai with some concern, but he still quickly jumped off the kang, put on his clothes quickly, and quickly ran out of his house and ran towards the courtyard of his parents' house.

Fang Jian's parents were still asleep, when they heard someone knocking on the door, Fang Jian's father pushed Fang Jian's mother with his hand, "Hurry up and go down to see who knocked on the door." ”

Fang Jian's mother was naturally unwilling, and she greeted the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the knocker in her heart, but she finally got up, if she didn't go again, maybe the man around her would beat her.

"Come on, don't knock." Fang Jian's mother ran to the door while buttoning her buttons, and the moment she opened the door and saw her son, she gave herself a few big mouths in her heart: she originally wanted to greet the eighteenth generation of other people's ancestors, but now she has been retributed, and even she has greeted herself.

Looking at Fang Jian, who was sweating profusely, Fang Jian's mother also became anxious, "What's wrong?" It's early in the morning, and it's not yet dawn. ”

Fang Jian gasped, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Mom, hurry up, my daughter-in-law wants... It's going to be born. With that, Fang Jian pulled his mother and walked out the door.

Fang Jian's mother slapped away Fang Jian's hand and dragged her, "Dead boy, wait first." ”

"Wait... Wait... Can't wait. ”

Fang Jian's mother slapped Fang Jian's head twice, "If you drag it again, I will be dragged to death by you first." ”

When Fang Jian heard this, he realized that his strength was great, so he could only endure the anxiety in his heart and let go of his mother, "Mom~"

"It's useless to call mom at this time, your mom and I are not immortals." Fang Jian's mother glared at her son angrily, "When did your woman start to hurt?" ”

Fang Jian had already recovered from his anxious helplessness at this time, and looked at his mother, "Just now." ”

Fang Jian's mother seemed to be thinking about something, "Is the amniotic water broken?" ”

"What is amniotic fluid?" Fang Jian looked confused, he was very unfamiliar with this new word that appeared in his mind.

Fang Jian's mother glanced at her son, is it really not a weapon, he is about to become a father, and he doesn't know what amniotic fluid is, doesn't he usually ask anything? "Is it that your woman's body is wet?"

Fang Jian thought back to the scene before he went out, and he couldn't find a clue in his mind about whether his woman's body was wet underneath. He was thinking, he slept on the same kang with his woman, and he was so close to each other, if his woman's body was wet, he naturally felt it, and he didn't feel it, so he said that the yin should not be wet.

"Probably not." Fang said ambiguously.

Fang Jian's mother glared at her son again, "What is the monkey anxious about, it's not time to give birth yet." With that, she turned and walked back into her house.

Fang Jian saw his mother walk in, and he could only follow, after all, the problem that should be solved had not been solved, he whispered behind his mother, "But she hurts badly, I look at her like that, I'm worried that something will happen." ”

Fang Jian's mother stopped, turned around and glared at her son again, "When I gave birth to you, I also died of pain, why didn't I see how much you care about me as a mother?" Then he turned and continued walking into the house.

After Fang Jian's parents got up and washed, Fang Jian's father finally spoke, "You came early in the morning, what's the matter?" ”

Before Fang Jian could speak, Fang Jian's mother spoke first, "What else can it be, or because his woman cried and shouted early in the morning that she was going to give birth, but the amniotic water hadn't broken yet." ”

Fang Jian's father glanced at his woman fiercely, "Count the days, it should be about the same." ”

Fang Jian's mother lowered her head because of Fang Jian's father's glance, "The days are almost the same, which woman in this world who gives birth to a baby is not a little painful." "Actually, Fang Jian's mother wanted to say that she was in pain when she gave birth to Fang Jian, and she didn't see what he asked when he was a father.

Fang Jian's father ignored the sour taste in his woman's mouth, turned his face to look at Fang Jian, and frowned, "You are so old that you have this child, hurry up and take your mother back to see your woman." ”

Fang Jian's father's words were like a rain after a long drought, moistening Fang Jian's anxious heart, "Okay, I'll go over with my mother." ”

Fang Jian's mother naturally didn't dare to contradict Fang Jian's father, she could only stare at her son secretly, "The mother-in-law at the west entrance of the village is a mother-in-law who specializes in delivering babies, you go over and call her at this time, let her bring two more mothers-in-law over, and I will clean up and then go over." ”

"What's there to pack?!" Fang Jian's father's voice was angry, he knew that his mother-in-law didn't want to see his daughter-in-law, in fact, he didn't want to care, after all, they were all so old, but his son was not very obedient, and he finally married a daughter-in-law and made noise every day, which made them upset, so he didn't expect his son and daughter-in-law to support their old couple, and they just lived their own lives.

"The mother-in-law who delivered the baby looked at the money, and I had no money on me, so I had to find something valuable." Fang Jian's mother's voice was very small, and she was afraid that a loud voice would make her man even more unhappy, and she would have no good fruit to eat at that time.

Fang Jian's father didn't say anything anymore, and lowered his head to eat the white porridge and steamed buns on the table.

Fang Jian didn't have the heart to eat white porridge and steamed buns, and he didn't say hello, so he got up and rushed to the midwife's house.

Yu Cai was dying of pain on her own kang alone, she felt that she was about to give birth, so in every pain, she only prayed to give birth to a son, so that everything she suffered was pain, and she couldn't imagine how she would face it if she gave birth to a girl.

In pain, Yu Cai shouted her father and mother in her heart, she knew that even if she really shouted out, her father and mother would not come, let alone come to care for her. The root of everything may be that Yu Cai, as the only living child of her parents, is not a male baby.

Yu Cai didn't know how long she had been in pain like this, and suddenly there was a human voice in the room where the pain was as silent as a cold cellar, in Yu Cai's blurred vision, she saw Fang Jian, at this moment, she was full of gratitude to Fang Jian in her heart, fortunately, there was such a person who could appear by her side at such a time.

When Fang Jian saw that Yu Cai didn't move, he asked the midwife in a little panic, and the midwife comforted him with an indifferent face, "A woman giving birth to a child is originally a life of nine deaths, where is this pain, it is not yet time to give birth, your daughter-in-law has slept in pain, nothing serious." ”

Saying that, the midwife walked to the kang, climbed onto the kang, looked at Yu Cai's situation, and saw that the amniotic water had not broken, so she immediately smiled at Fang Jian, "Fang is in charge, you are a manly husband, the place where women give birth to babies is not something you can stay in, you go out and help us boil some water." ”

After Fang Jian listened to the midwife's words, "Okay, I'll go boil water." ”

Fang Jian's two mothers-in-law came out behind him, found some pots, waited for the boiling water to boil, and then brought them in to prepare.

Fang Jian's mother came in through the door and saw her son standing at the door of the house without entering, the courtyard was very quiet, and there was a little sign of going to give birth.

"Urge, urge, early in the morning, the old lady has no stable sleep to sleep, and the old lady is dangling from home, your woman is quiet now."

Fang Jian didn't know how to deal with it, because he hadn't given birth to a baby, so he didn't know why it was quiet at this time when Yu Cai, who was still in pain in the morning, felt like he was about to give birth.

Fang Jian's mother glared at her son, didn't say anything more, and walked straight into the house.

The midwife and the other two mothers-in-law in the house were sitting on the edge of the kang, chatting in a whisper, when they saw Fang Jian's mother coming in, they all got up, "Mother-in-law is very happy." ”

Fang Jian's mother naturally laughed, "It's really hard, my daughter-in-law's restless commotion has made a few old sisters come here to guard." ”

"It's my life to do this job, and if you say it's hard, you'll see it."

Fang Jian's mother and the midwife were talking like this, and the two mothers-in-law who came with the midwife also responded on the side.

It wasn't until after noon that several people were a little hungry from chatting, and Yu Cai on the kang rolled in pain again.

Several people were in a hurry to deal with it again, and finally waited for Yu Cai to fall asleep again, and a few people stopped.

Fang Jian's mother brought some steamed buns and pickles from the kitchen, and entertained the midwife and the other two mothers-in-law to eat, and several people sat on the edge of the kang and continued to wait. It's not that they don't want to go, but Fang Jian at the door is begging in every way, so they can only stay.

In the evening, the amniotic fluid that had been harvested broke in the evening. Yu Cai felt a pain that was more intense than during the day, and her cries were louder and louder, making Fang Jian's heart furious.

Fang Jian's mother and the two mothers-in-law who came with the midwife hurriedly went in and out, basin after basin of hot water and basin of blood water out, so that Fang Jian could only pace back and forth outside the house in a hurry to pray.

This scene lasted until late at night, and the midwife ran out sweating profusely and asked Fang Jian, "No, the child's position is wrong, the head can't come out, and the adults have no strength, it may only be possible to keep one, you want to protect the big and the small, give my mother-in-law a word in advance, and I will act at the opportunity." ”

Fang Jian, who had always been bold, had no idea in an instant, and he didn't know whether to keep it big or small.

"Of course it's small." Fang Jian's mother's voice sounded behind the midwife.

The midwife looked at Fang Jian, didn't say anything, didn't ask again, hurriedly ran into the house, and continued to deliver Yu Cai.
