Chapter 582: Chapter 582: Sisi Production (Part 3)

After devouring a large bowl of poached eggs, Liu Sisi finally felt some strength coming back to her body. As the sky began to brighten, Liu Zhi’er arrived just in time. At the sight of a familiar face, Liu Sisi’s fluttering heart finally harbored some peace and she managed to muster a smile.

“You! I don’t know what to say about you!”

Liu Zhi’er carefully washed her hands with boiled water, put on the clothes Liu Sisi had sterilized by boiling and dried in advance before making her way to her.

“You had contractions last night, why did you wait until daybreak to call me? Didn’t we agree that as soon as you begin labor, someone should wake me up? You always take your body so lightly!”

Liu Sisi smiled: “I knew I wouldn’t give birth so quickly. You coming earlier would just make you anxious!”

“You… when will you learn to take better care of yourself?”

Filled with both worry and frustration, Liu Zhi’er says, “Stop talking now, close your eyes and rest. By the way, is there anything else we need to be careful about?” Having given birth to three children herself, Liu Zhi’er instinctively thought to ask Liu Sisi.

“There is nothing much to worry about. Just instruct everyone who enters this room to change their clothes and clean their hands with boiled water. Understood?” After saying this softly, Liu Sisi closed her eyes. Giving birth really was a tiring process…

The reason for changing clothes and cleaning hands with boiled water was her way to prevent any possible spread of infection.

However, Liu Zhi’er interpreted it as Liu Sisi being worried about someone trying to harm her! Given Sisi’s current status and considering past events, it was indeed a possibility!

Therefore, throughout the process of the birth, she strictly enforced Liu Sisi’s instructions.

Soon, good news from outside reached them, Granny Xu had arrived and was waiting outside the door.

With Granny Xu’s arrival, Liu Sisi’s heart was further eased.

Upon entering the delivery room, Granny Xu immediately dismissed the superfluous midwives, each to their own duties. Even Liu Zhi’er was tasked with guarding the door, leaving just a short, plump woman as her assistant.

She examined Liu Sisi’s stomach, lightly exclaiming “ah”, her expression momentarily turning sour before quickly regaining her composure.

Despite her quick reaction, Liu Sisi was keen enough to observe the change and immediately felt a sinking feeling. A wave of thoughts surged in her heart. As a wave of pain subside, Liu Sisi clutched Granny Xu’s hand.

“Granny Xu, is my baby not properly positioned?”

Granny Xu retained her usual gentle composure: “Madam, please be at ease. Every woman since ancient times has had to pass the test of childbirth. Truly, a woman’s journey isn’t complete without it. Your baby is well positioned, keep your mind at ease!”

“Is that so?”

Responding lightly, Liu Sisi’s grip on Granny Xu’s arm eased and she slid her hand back onto the bed, her smile all the more poignant.

“Granny Xu, if it becomes impossible to save both myself and the child, please, I beg you, do your best to save the baby in my stomach!”

She already considered her own life as one borrowed. Living through another life in this world was more than enough, she was satisfied! But her child in her womb had not yet seen this beautiful blue sky, and must not be lost so soon!

“Madam, please be at ease! You will definitely give birth safely, and I, Granny Xu, cannot afford to lose my reputation!”

Granny Xu responded as usual, with an amiable smile.

Outside the delivery room, a growing crowd gathered at this moment.
