Auntie Yan took a deep breath and rolled up the sleeves on her wrist. She looked at Gao Lang and said, ”Madam, bear with the pain, I'll try again!”

Auntie Yan could not bear to part with the child that had grown up in Jin Xiaolou. If she really wanted to protect her master, then she could only use a pair of pliers to cut the child out.

However, if he did not take out the child now, the delay would be too long. He was afraid that even the size of the child might not be preserved.

Auntie Yan had delivered many children. Almost all of the juniors in the Gu family village had been born from her hands. Thus, she wanted to give it her all.

She rubbed her hands together to warm them, then reached over and pulled the child's leg inside. Her hands quickly reached in and grabbed both of the child's ankles, pulling with all her strength.

This movement seemed light and swift, but it was actually extremely dangerous and dangerous.

Jin Xiaolou screamed in pain, followed by the sound of a baby crying.

She used the handkerchief to wipe the child's body clean and wrapped him in a blanket. She passed it to Nan Yang who was beside her: ”Madam, it's a boy, he's so strong!”

Then, he looked at Jin Xiaolou's stomach. ”There's still one more.

Jin Xiaolou only felt her stomach loosen, but then the pain struck again. Hearing Aunt Yan's words, Jin Xiaolou could only grit her teeth and nod.

After the first one came out, the second one was much faster. Not long after, Jin Xiaolou felt that the bloating discomfort in his stomach disappeared, and her body relaxed along with his empty stomach.

Jin Xiaolou released Gao Lang's hand and gently closed his eyes, muttering: ”I'm too tired, I'll sleep for a while, just a bit more.”

When he woke up, he felt extremely satisfied. The surroundings felt warm, and his body and mind were extremely comfortable, but the moment he opened his eyes, he heard the cries of a baby, followed by Lin'er's happy voice: ”Father, Mother is awake!”

She caressed Lin'er and saw Gao Lang running over to squat on the bedside, Jin Xiaolou immediately asked: ”How is the child?”

”A pair of twins. Healthy.” Gao Lang lovingly kissed Jin Xiaolou on the forehead, ”My wife, you've worked hard.”

Hearing that the child was safe and healthy, Jin Xiaolou relaxed. Struggling to sit up, she asked Nan Yang to carry the child to him.

Two toddlers were wrapped in red scarves, revealing only their small, pink faces. One of them was quietly sleeping with her small mouth moving, while the other was crying until his nose and eyes were red. Jin Xiaolou hugged one of them on one side, looked left and right, and felt that the two of them were the same as the Lin'er when he was young, which made her heart melt and soften.

”Maybe he's hungry.” Seeing one of them unable to stop crying, Nan Yang spoke out.

Jin Xiaolou naturally untied her clothes and fed the child. This time, she had plenty of milk, but the moment she thought about one of the children being sent to Jinjun Mountain, her heart throbbed in pain.

”Let's call them Sier and Nian Er.” Jin Xiaolou suddenly said. Since the two of them were her flesh and blood, she could not choose who to send away. However, no matter which one she sent away, she would miss him for the rest of her life.

”Alright.” Gao Lang understood what Jin Xiaolou meant, ”My wife has the final say.”

Just as he finished speaking, a rumbling sound suddenly came from outside the tent, followed by a figure appearing hastily in front of the tent in a flash. Chang An's voice was still calm: ”Seventh Elder, someone is attacking from the desert.”

”How many?” Gao Lang frowned, these people were truly unlucky, it was the new year, and the small building had just been produced, he did not want to leave his wife's side at all.

Chang An replied: ”The dust brought by the horses' hooves is too big, I can't see the number of people, but... Seeing that the number of troops is higher than in the past, General Hu Shan has already led his team out.

”Bring the horse.” Gao Lang shouted out, and turned to Jin Xiaolou, ”My wife, I will be right back.”

Jin Xiaolou unwillingly held onto Gao Lang's hand, and only let go after a while: ”I'll wait for your return.”

Gao Lang nodded, then said to Nan Yang: ”Take good care of Madam.”

Then, he turned around and walked out of the tent.

There was a long whine from the horses, and soon they were lost in the din.

Nan Yang leaned on the side of the tent entrance, opened the curtain and took a peek, with just a glance, she could tell that the form was completely different from before.

In the past, it was just some bandits. They didn't have many people and they didn't have much courage. They could only harass the surrounding people and not charge into the barracks.

However, this time, there were at least several hundred people watching as the yellow sand got closer. They all headed straight for the army camp.

Gao Lang led the majority of the soldiers in the army camp, leaving behind a small portion of them to guard Jin Xiaolou's camp. He and Chang An were the leaders of the cavalry, moving towards the surging yellow sand, determined to block the enemies outside of the camp.

Hu Shan and the rest were not far ahead. Gao Lang saw that when Hu Shan was about to get close to the yellow sand, he suddenly pulled on the reins tightly and stood still, then he hurriedly turned his horse around.
