388 Childbirth (1/2)

Soujin and Jun Hua's Residence

Inside Soujin's workroom, there were two people inside, completely engrossed in their own world until Qin Shie broke the silent.

”You seem to read a lot of these books now,” she pointed to one of the books on the table. The title of the book was 'Childbirth Difficulties'.

Soujin peered towards the book his mother pointed at. He smiled wryly at his mother remarks, ”I'm just worried of her condition and the fact that I almost know nothing before this always make me worry.”

”Childbirth is always hard for women,” Qin Shie acknowledge that fact, ”But I'm sure she is going to be alright when the time comes for her. Rather than worrying about her, shouldn't you deal with the matter of your grandfather-in-law breaking your grandfather's workroom?”

Soujin's face stiffened at the mention of that matter. Because he kicked out Jun Zhenxian and didn't allow him to bother the two of them, he decided to bother his grandfather instead. Just a few days before, he received the report that the two of them got into a small fight and some of the things inside the room were broken.

”Let them finish the matter themselves, I don't want to bother cleaning up after them again,” Soujin said indignantly.

”You can say it that way,” Qin Shie looked towards the window, ”the time for childbirth will soon come for her. It might be today or a few days more.”

Soujin frowned when Qin Shie reminded him about that. Come to think about it, he was completely engrossed in his work today that he hadn't met with her for hours. It would be better to check on her first and finish the work later.

Seeing her son cleaning up the table, Qin Shie smirked, ”You want to see her again?”

”Mother, stop teasing me,” Soujin said helplessly. Ever since he got married, his mother's tongue has become even sharper and continued to tease him. It seemed her mother was determined to make sure he can't retort since it was always the other way around in the past.

Qin Shie smiled, ”It was just really fun to tease someone in love. Your grandfather did the same in the past too.”

”I would prefer Mother didn't become more similar with him anymore,” Soujin's face darkened.

Qin Shie laughed at Soujin's remark. She couldn't help but tease him since this young boy always seemed so composed in his action. It was only on the matter of Jun Hua did he show much more expressions that he rarely did. As a mother, it would be a lie if she said that she didn't want to see them.

She was about to say more things when a servant came in a hurry to their place. Seeing the panicked, worry, yet happy expression on this servant's face, Soujin felt his heart tighten.

”Your Highness, Princess Hua is giving birth.”

”What?” Soujin has just talked about this with his mother, and it really did happen right now? Without caring about his appearance anymore, he rushed out from the room as fast as he could, making the servant nearly toppled out from the aftereffect of Soujin's prowess and speed that he showed.

Qin Shie was obviously stunned speechless at her son conduct. This was one of the rare occasions in which Soujin completely forgot about himself. Come to think about it, every time the other party lost his composure, it would be related to the little lass. Shaking her head, she quickly followed after her son.

When she arrived in front of the room, she could see the pale face Soujin. The servants around him were all trembling in fear because Soujin's face was just too scary. However, what came to her ear the next moment was the sound of a woman scream.

”Ah!”

Qin Shie first stunned to hear the sound, but come to understand that even someone like Jun Hua would feel pain upon childbirth. Still, for a former general to shout in pain at this time, could it be there was some complication?

”How long has it been since Hua'er is inside?” Qin Shie asked her son.

”This morning,” Soujin answered. The servants told him that she felt her stomach hurt not long after she woke up this morning. Because he was busy with his work, he hadn't accompanied her this morning, so he didn't know.
