Chapter 335 - This Is Not My Baby (1/2)

In fact, Shi Qingxue wanted to enter the room, too, yet she was afraid that so many people would affect Dong Hui.

After Dong Hui shrieked again, Shi Qingxue couldn’t control herself anymore but rushed in with a big stride.

“Mother, what’s wrong with you?”

As soon as Shi Qingxue asked, she was stunned.

It was because the scene in the room was beyond her expectation, and even Shi Baoning who came in behind her was shocked.

Their mother who wanted to give up her life in order to protect the baby pushed the midwife hard and shouted in a harsh voice, “Monster. Monster! Take it away. Take it away now. This is not my baby. This is a monster.”

Shi Junhe sat on the bedside, and his face turned terrible and pale. He stared at the baby in the midwife’s arms.

He didn’t rebuke Dong Hui when she pushed the midwife away. He just held her and winked at the midwife.

The midwife sensibly took the baby away and went back to the corner, curling up.

“What happened?”

Shi Qingxue was confused, while Dong Hui was emotional, still shouting crazily. Shi Junhe had to comfort her and didn’t have time to explain.

Shi Qingxue could do nothing but walk to the corner and wanted to see her brother.

The midwife raised her hand and covered the swaddling clothes in advance, advising hesitantly, “My Lady, don’t look at it.”

Shi Qingxue furrowed her arch eyebrows more deeply and didn’t know why she couldn’t see her brother.

“It doesn’t matter. Remove your hand. I will have a look.”

The midwife had no choice but to withdraw her hand.

Shi Qingxue leaned forward and finally saw the baby in the swaddling clothes clearly.

Her pupils enlarged in an instant, and she glared at the swaddling clothes, unable to speak.

The midwife thought that Shi Qingxue was scared by the “monster” in swaddling clothes, so she reached out her hand to cover the baby again, saying in a low voice, “My Lady, you’d better step back, in case you are frightened.”

Shi Qingxue blinked and didn’t believe what she had seen.

In fact, she just saw a little head, which was pointed with wrinkles all over the face. There was messy fetal hair on his head, and he looked like an ordinary newborn baby.

He was ugly yet not unacceptable.

However, it was weird that there was a birthmark on his face spreading from his left forehead, and it almost covered half of his left face. It was black and disgusting.

He was really like a monster.

Shi Qingxue had never seen such a big and horrible birthmark of a person, and she was really scared for a moment.

However, the midwife’s actions made her uncomfortable.

Shi Qingxue reached out her hand to stop the midwife and block hers. “Don’t cover him. I will look at him again.”

This time she took a deep breath and then opened her eyes to look at the baby again.

Nobody knew whether it was because of the poison or lack of nutrition. In Duke Shi’s mansion, the latter was almost impossible. This baby was quite thin, and there was no flesh on his face. The five sense organs were together, and the face was smaller than her palm. Moreover, with that black birthmark, he looked so scary.

When he grew up, it must be better.

Shi Qingxue thought with uncertainty and frowned.

The midwife thought that Shi Qingxue felt disgusted with this newborn baby. After all, the mother’s attitude was obvious. The midwife was afraid that she would be implicated, so she hurriedly said, “I will take the baby away first, in case that he distains your eyes, My Lady…”

As soon as she finished the words, she kept silent because Shi Qingxue glared at her.

Shi Qingxue furrowed her brows deeply, but she didn’t rebuke this midwife as the latter came from the imperial palace specially to deliver the baby for Dong Hui. She just stressed with displeasure, “He is my brother.”

The midwife instantly realized that she had said something wrong, so she admitted her fault. “I was brainless to say that. Please forgive me, My Lady.”

Shi Qingxue was not in the mood to bother about the midwife. She turned to the little baby again.

The baby was still asleep, and he closed his eyes. His eyes, nose and mouth were wrinkled, and he looked ugly at a glance, yet thinking that he was her brother and related to her by blood, Shi Qingxue had feelings beyond expression.

When she looked at the baby’s ugly birthmark, it seemed not so offensive to the eye. Especially he opened the little mouth from time to time, which made Qingxue’s heart soft.

He was so lovely.

Shi Qingxue looked at the midwife with expectancy and couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Can I hold him?”

The midwife looked hesitant.

Although it appeared that this young lady didn’t repel this baby but liked him, obviously she didn’t have experience in holding a baby. If she made him fall, it would be troublesome.

However, the midwife didn’t hesitate for long because Dong Hui screamed sadly all of a sudden somehow, and her voice got louder and louder. She just said that her belly hurt.

The servant who served her surprisingly found that the lower part of Dong Hui’s body started to bleed again.

Shen Luo walked forward and checked her pulse. Then he looked serious again. “There is one more baby in Madam’s womb. Prepare to deliver it.”
