Old Cui had also told him in private that if it really acted up in advance, he would urge Yu Wan to give birth. The pregnancy month is full, so there was not much risk of urging her to give birth. He would try his best to ensure the safety of the mother and child.
Yan Jiuchao was unwilling. Even if there was a one in a million chance, he did not want his wife and child to take the risk.
After Yu Wan finished eating the candied hawthorn, she was a little sleepy and went to take a nap.
Yan Jiuchao circulated the Longevity Technique in the room, trying to suppress the poison in his body that was on the verge of erupting. However, he realized that it was useless. It was actually a miracle that the Longevity Technique could suppress it for so long. After all, it was not a cultivation technique to detoxify the poison, so if he wanted to eliminate it completely, he had to take the antidote.
“Young Master!” Shadow Thirteen walked in. He was stunned when he saw the bean-sized sweat on Yan Jiuchao’s forehead. “Young Master, has your poison acted up?” Yan Jiuchao’s face turned pale. Shadow Thirteen turned around and walked out. “I’ll call Old Cui!”
Old Cui did not live in the Young Master Manor, but he was not too far away. After all, Yan Jiuchao’s poison could act up at any time.
“I’m fine. Come back first,” Yan Jiuchao said weakly.
Shadow Thirteen looked at Yu Wan, who was sleeping soundly behind the curtain, and secretly clenched his fists. Young Madam, Young Master’s poison has acted up. If you don’t give birth soon, Young Master won’t be able to take it anymore…
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, Yu Wan’s stomach moved. Right on the heels of that, Yu Wan was woken up by the pain.
“Yan Jiuchao!” Yu Wan opened her eyes.
Yan Jiuchao quickly walked over and lifted the curtain. He looked at Yu Wan, who was suddenly sweating profusely. “You…” Yu Wan grabbed his hand. “I… I think I’m going to give birth…”
The Young Master Manor instantly became busy.
Although they were busy, Prince Yan and Uncle Wan were waiting for this day every day, so they had long arranged everything in the manor.
Nanny Liu entered the delivery room. More than twenty famous doctors from Yan City were guarding the door. The hot water in the kitchen had been boiling since last night, one pot after another, and it had never stopped.
“Where’s the ginseng soup?” Uncle Wan asked.
“It’s done!” Ping’er said. “I’ll bring it over to Young Madam now!”
Giving birth required a lot of strength, so experienced midwives would ask rich families to prepare ginseng soup and brown sugar water. Sometimes, they would ask them to prepare something else, but pregnant women usually could not eat it.
Ping’er brought the ginseng soup in. After a while, she came out again.
“That…” Ping’er looked at Uncle Wan awkwardly.
“What’s wrong?” Uncle Wan asked.
Yu Wan’s scream came from inside the room. Nanny Liu comforted her in a low voice. “This isn’t the most painful time yet. Save your strength and shout later, okay?”
“Oh.” After that, Yu Wan really stopped shouting.
Uncle Wan was puzzled. There was such a thing? “By the way, what did you want to say just now?” Uncle Wan looked at Ping’er.
Ping’er said, “Young Madam said she doesn’t want to drink the ginseng soup.
She wants to eat.”
Uncle Wan hurriedly said, “What does she want to eat? I’ll get the kitchen to cook!”
“She wants to eat roasted goose, crispy duck, braised pork knuckle, vinegar cabbage, cured meat stewed with noodles…” Ping’er said a total of seventeen to eighteen dishes in one go and saw the corners of Uncle Wan’s mouth twitch.
Was she really giving birth? Wasn’t she scamming them?!
It was no wonder that Uncle Wan thought this way. It was really because after Yu Wan entered the last month of pregnancy, Old Cui had instructed them to control Yu Wan’s diet. He was afraid that the children would be too big and difficult to give birth to. At that time, Yu Wan would be dangerous if she could not give birth.
Therefore, although Yu Wan was always eating, they had secretly reduced the portion of dishes and rice by half. They even lied that they could not buy ingredients for some of it which were too greasy and used other dishes to replace them.
It was also because Yu Wan had a good temper and did not make things difficult for servants like them. If it were someone else with a hard temper, they would have long chased this group of “incompetent” servants out of the manor.
“Ahem.” Uncle Wan walked to the door. “Isn’t this too much…
“I’m about to give birth. Aren’t you going to let me eat my fill… Boohoo…” Yu Wan’s aggrieved wail came from inside. Uncle Wan, who instantly felt guilty:
“Do it!” Yan Jiuchao instructed.
Uncle Wan slipped away. Roast goose, crispy duck, braised pork knuckle, vinegar cabbage, cured meat stewed with noodles… They were all carried into the room.
Yu Wan ate very well. She had a duck leg in her left hand and a drumstick in her right. Nanny Liu couldn’t bear to look at her anymore. Was she delivering a fake child?
“Not good!” Nanny Liu touched Yu Wan’s stomach and her expression suddenly
changed.
“What’s wrong?” Yu Wan stopped chewing on the drumstick.
“The fetal position of the child is not right! It’s…” Nanny Liu touched it carefully.” It’s the most dangerous horizontal position!”
How could this be? It was clearly fine yesterday. What was this child doing in her stomach? In just one night, it had turned itself into an endangered state?
Nanny Liu was a very experienced midwife. Most of the children she delivered were in the normal fetal position, and only a small number were in the butt position, which was to sit upside down in the womb. This kind of difficult birth was not completely impossible, but the horizontal position was different.
It was horizontal in its mother’s womb. How could she give birth?!
Nanny Liu was about to despair. This was the Regent’s child. The Regent was someone who could cut off Assistant Minister Ma’s waist if he was unhappy. If she lost his child, would she be dragged out and cut off by him?
Of course, this was not Nanny Liu’s fault, but would the nobles care about this? They would only blame the midwife.
Yu Wan: “Oh.”
Compared to Nanny Liu’s shock, Yu Wan was very calm. Nanny Liu looked at her as if she had seen a ghost. Oh? What did that mean? Do you know that you’re in labor? Even an immortal can’t deliver this child’s fetal position for you! At that time, just cry! No, you might not even have a chance to cry! This would be two lives!
Yu Wan calmly took a bite of the drumstick and looked down at her stomach. “Hey, turn back.”
The corners of Nanny Liu’s mouth twitched. Haha, Princess Consort, are you kidding me? Do you think it will turn back just like that?
The next scene was unbelievable. The little fellow in her stomach obediently turned around and returned to its position.
Nanny Liu :
At this moment, Nanny Liu really felt like she had seen a ghost. She had delivered babies for so many years, but this was the first time she had met such an indecent pregnant woman and such an unruly child.
“What were you shouting about in there just now? Did something happen?” Yan Jiuchao entered the room.
“It’s fine. It hurts just now. It doesn’t hurt anymore,” Yu Wan said.
Nanny Liu was dumbfounded. The delivery room was a bloody and dirty place. Men shouldn’t come in! It was inauspicious!
Yan Jiuchao ignored her and went straight to the bed with a newly cooked braised chicken in his hand. “Do you want some?”
Yu Wan’s eyes lit up. “SlurpYes!
After Yan Jiuchao handed the braised chicken to Yu Wan, he left because Yu Wan suddenly wanted to eat stinky tofu again.
Yan Jiuchao had come and gone countless times, and every time, he would bring back new food. Nanny Liu almost knelt down. Is this how you give birth? Have you forgotten to give birth?
After Yan Jiuchao went out to buy food for Yu Wan again, Nanny Liu said solemnly, “Princess Consort, you can’t eat like this anymore. If you eat too much, your stomach will feel uncomfortable and you won’t be able to give birth…”
“Achoo!”
As soon as Nanny Liu finished speaking, Yu Wan sneezed heavily.
Nanny Liu felt her hand sink.
Oh my god! The child was out!!!
