Chapter 619 Production
He also hoped that the other party would have a smooth delivery. After a checkup, the buds were all normal and the body was in good condition. Except that she was a little thin and needed more nutrition, everything else was good.
Li Yuanpan was relieved. Hualei was doing better and he felt less stressed. So he prescribed a few recipes suitable for pregnant women for Hualei and asked her to follow them regularly.
Hearing that everything was fine, Hua Lei was very happy. She asked Qingqi to give two silver ingots to Li Yuanpan, and then politely sent Li Yuanpan out of the courtyard.
Li Yuanpan came to Mobei mainly to prepare for the new Huimin Pharmacy in Mobei, so he was actually quite busy. However, every five days, Li Yuanpan would come to Hualei's house to check her pulse and adjust her diet in time.
Sometimes, Hualei would ask Zhenzhu to come over and ask Li Yuanpan to help take her pulse or something. Of course, Zhenzhu also gave a lot of money. So, both sides were happy.
The Imperial Medical Bureau has a heavy responsibility, but the salary is average. Hualei and Zhenzhu are generous, which makes Li Yuanpan more concerned about it.
In mid-August, Zhenzhu, who was full-term pregnant, went into labor. With the cooperation of Li Yuanpan and several midwives, she successfully gave birth to a son. Both mother and child were safe, and Hualei also breathed a sigh of relief.
Before Zhenzhu gave birth, Hualei sent a batch of nourishing herbs such as bird's nest and ginseng that Mrs. Pei had sent over. After the birth, she also sent Zhenzhu a lot of red dates and eggs as food supplements.
Maybe because it was her second child, Pearl didn’t suffer much during the birthing process this time. She completed the delivery smoothly in just two hours, which made Hua Lei very envious.
The child was healthy, and changed every three days, and changed a lot in ten days. Because we were in Mobei, the child's baptism ceremony was relatively simple.
Apart from a few people from her family who had a meal together, no outsiders were invited. However, Hualei still prepared pure gold bracelets and anklets for the children, which symbolizes perfection and stability.
In the following days, Hualei also asked Qingqi and Qinghong to wash and dry all the items related to the children sent by Mrs. Pei and Yun Siwan. She also followed the recipes listed by Li Yuanpan and followed them carefully.
Hualei is both excited and afraid of the upcoming child. It is said that when a woman gives birth, it is like stepping into a coffin.
There is no caesarean section technology and no advanced medical equipment now. There is no other way except giving birth yourself.
Fortunately, the midwives sent from the capital city were all experienced, and with the help of Li Yuanpan, a top expert in gynecology, and Xiaoyuan visiting from time to time, Hualei was able to keep herself steady.
I just don’t know if Hualei’s mood affected Rong Jin, or if Rong Jin himself was more nervous than Hualei. During this period of time, Rong Jin made mistakes every now and then when doing things.
During this period, Madam Han came over every day. She would first visit Zhenzhu, then go to Hualei to take care of the kitchen and the midwife, and give her tips on everything that should be paid attention to.
That morning, Hua Lei was still asleep when she felt a dull pain in her stomach. Now, she could only sleep on her side with her back to Rong Jin.
After calculating the date, she knew she was about to give birth. She moved slightly, and Rong Jin leaned over and asked softly, "Sister Hua, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I just have a slight pain in my stomach. I should be giving birth in the next two days. Don't panic, let Qingqi and Qinghua come in and find a midwife." Hua Lei leaned on Rong Jin's arm and sat on the head of the bed.
Although she had no experience in childbirth, Hua Lei knew from her experience in her previous life and the fact that she had been by Zhenzhu's side during the birth, that there would be some time between labor and birth and that she should not panic.
During this time, Qingqi and Qinghua had been taking turns to stand guard outside. When they heard the noise, they immediately came in and helped Hualei put on her coat. They also asked Qinghong and Qinglu to prepare food and water.
By the time the flower buds finished their bath and breakfast, it was already daybreak. The dull pain in my stomach not only did not go away, but became even more pronounced.
Xiaoyuan, who received the news, rushed into the yard like the wind, "Sister..." The fifteen-year-old boy could not hide the panic on his face.
"It's okay, don't panic." Hualei smiled at Xiaoyuan, holding Qingqi's hand, and walked slowly in the yard. The midwife said, walk more to distract your attention.
Pei Jingyang and Madam Han also entered the yard. Looking at the flustered Xiaoyuan, Pei Jingyang patted Xiaoyuan on the shoulder and comforted him silently.
Li Yuanpan, whom Rong Jin had asked to invite, also came hurriedly. After taking Hua Lei's pulse carefully, he told Hua Lei to tidy up the delivery room first, as it might be needed today.
Half a month ago, Hua Lei had been thinking about her own childbirth, so she prepared a delivery room for herself in the wing.
According to the midwife's experience, a bed of appropriate height was made, the place was cleaned, a screen was placed, and clean mattresses, quilts, scissors, cloths, etc. were prepared to keep it as clean as possible.
When Qinghong and the others were tidying up the delivery room and the midwife was using hot water to sterilize the scissors and towels, Hualei's pain was intensifying and her face became a little ugly. Rong Jin, who was supporting Hualei, also looked a little pale.
The pain came again, and Hualei was helped into the delivery room. The pain came again and again, and slowly became regular. The midwife kept looking down and talking about the degree of dilation of the cervix.
Time became infinitely long, and the pain became more and more intense. Hualei felt that she was on the edge of endurance every minute and every second.
Rong Jin was sitting restlessly outside the door. Inside the delivery room, Hua Lei's suppressed cries and the midwife's soothing and assisting voices made him feel dazed.
He knew how difficult and arduous childbirth was for women, but when it really came to him, he realized what it felt like to live each day like a year and to feel like a year.
Xiao Yuan stood at the door of the delivery room like a wooden stake, staring blankly at the closed door. This had been going on for several hours. He was panic-stricken and at a loss as to what to do.
"Wow..." A loud cry came out.
"It's born, it's born, it's a little boy. Come, come, rub, rub." The midwife's surprised voice came out.
"Sister Hua..."
"elder sister……"
Rong Jin and Xiao Yuan stood at the door of the delivery room.
Hua Lei in the delivery room was exhausted. She didn't have time to respond to the two people at the door and fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already pitch dark outside. I looked at the hourglass in the corner and it was already late at night.
"Sister Hua...how do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Are you hungry?" Rong Jin, who had been guarding the bed, asked Hua Lei nervously.
