Chapter 581: Chapter 581: Sisi Production (Part 2)
Liu Sisi had always been delicate. Since she arrived in this world, especially during the later stages of her pregnancy, she had paid particular attention to maintaining a balanced diet to keep her body in good shape.
The women here were required to rest and take care of themselves before giving birth. Yet, Liu Sisi was constantly busy, running between the county, riverside, small bridges, and academy field. Apart from her high spirits, it seemed that she had not gained much weight, except for her belly, which had swollen like a blubber ball!
From ancient times to present, childbirth has been like stepping into the gate of hell for women!
The midwife had been living in the official residence more than a month in advance, and Dr. He had been checking Liu Sisi’s pulses almost daily, repeatedly assuring that the mother and child were in good condition.
Today was no exception, but unexpectedly, the crisis suddenly developed!
Blood-soaked water was carried out of the room in basin after basin, leaving everyone both inside and outside the room extremely anxious!
Dr. He caught one of the midwives as she came out and asked anxiously, “How is it? How is the situation inside? Is Sisi alright?”
The midwife, who had been brought into the manor more than a month ago, rushed out of the room in panic. When a hand suddenly appeared beside her, she was startled!
“Doctor… Madam… Madam is hungry and wants to eat something…”
Dr. He’s eyes lit up!
“Eating is good! Eating will give her strength! Wait! I have a 500-year-old wild ginseng here! Take two slices and stew them in her food, then let her take another slice… No, no, no! Let our medicine pageboy prepare the herbs! Pageboy! Pageboy…”
Dr. He was in a muddle!
In the delivery room, Liu Sisi was sweating profusely. At this moment, it was scorching June, and the moment she felt pain, her clothes and sheets had been soaking wet. Her hair was clumped and stuck to her face!
Despite her pain, she gritted her teeth and refused to cry out!
“Madam, if you’re in pain, just cry out! Crying will make you feel better! Be careful not to hurt yourself like this!” The nearby midwife couldn’t bear to watch and advised her.
Most women would scream in pain because of fear, and they had never seen anyone give birth without making a sound! They couldn’t risk any accidents!
As soon as a wave of pain subsided, Liu Sisi caught her breath and smiled, “No problem! It’s not time to cry yet. By the way, why hasn’t the food arrived?”
What she truly wanted to ask, was why Ye Lei hadn’t come back yet?
She remembered when he left, he had said he would be back before the birth. But now, she was about to deliver, and he was still on a boat far away!
She wished she could push the baby back inside and wait one more day for him, but…
It was too late!
“Madam, the soup medicine is here! This is what Dr. He personally prepared for you! Drink it while it’s hot!”
An old woman brought in a bowl of ginseng soup.
“Alright, bring it over.”
Liu Sisi quickly finished the soup medicine in the bowl and handed it to the side: “Quick! Go and get the Old Master’s letter for me!”
Before her words had faded, Ms. Gao hurriedly pushed open the door and ran in.
