Chapter 1388: Extra Episode 17: Born_2
Just then, the midwife’s excited voice came from the end of the bed, "It’s open, it’s open, the cervix is open, my lady, you can push now!"
After speaking, another midwife placed a clean cotton cloth to Mo Yan’s mouth for her to bite, to prevent her from biting her own tongue later.
Mo Yan’s spirits lifted, she bit down hard on the cotton cloth, ready to take deep breaths and gather her strength following the midwife’s instruction, but realizing her husband was still by the bed, she rolled her eyes to signal to him, hinting he should hurry out.
Xiao Ruiyuan understood Mo Yan’s meaning and gently but firmly shook his head, "Yanyan, I will stay right here with you, I am not going anywhere."
Upon hearing this, a look of urgency flashed in Mo Yan’s eyes and she uttered a whining sound, urging him to leave quickly.
Seeing that Xiao Ruiyuan remained seated by the bed unmoved, one of the midwives couldn’t help but advise, "Lord Hou, perhaps you should step aside. The appearance of a woman giving birth is usually not a pleasant sight, the lady may not want you to see her at her worst."
Not to mention giving birth, that is like having one foot in the coffin, and the pain alone is enough to be unbearable for any woman. Even the most beautiful woman cannot look good at this moment, what woman would want her husband to see her ugliest, most disheveled side?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruiyuan deeply gazed at his wife whose face was contorted in pain. He very much wanted to say he simply wouldn’t care, that in his eyes she would always be the most beautiful, but he also knew staying here wouldn’t be helpful and would only distract his wife. Without uttering a word, he bent down, placed a deep kiss on her forehead, and left without looking back.
Mo Yan watching the man’s silhouette disappear through the door, blinked away the tears in her eyes, and slowly gathered her strength with the reminder of the midwives.
Seeing Xiao Ruiyuan coming out, Liu Tinglan was about to inquire about the situation when she saw Xiao Ruiyuan standing motionless at the doorway, his expression unreadable, as if cut off from everything around him, and suddenly she found herself unable to speak.
The maids carried hot water and bloody water in and out, and occasionally the midwives’ voices leaked through the crack of the door. With Xiao Ruiyuan’s keen hearing, he could distinctly make out Mo Yan’s stifled moans amidst the noisy sounds.
He stood like a statue at the doorway, unmoving, his ten fingers unconsciously tightening, the hard fingernails sinking deeply into his palms, and the fresh red blood leaking onto the floor below him went unnoticed.
"Mm—umm—mm—"
Wave after wave of intense pain caused Mo Yan’s face to scrunch up, sweat on her face dripping down like rain, slithering along her temples into her hair, then down the nape of her neck into the pillow. The only thought in her mind was, before her strength gave out, she had to give birth to the child as quickly as possible, her man was still waiting for her outside.
"Madam, push hard, you’re about to see the baby’s head." One midwife felt the child’s head, less than an inch away from emerging, excitedly encouraging Mo Yan.
None of the three midwives expected that with such a big belly, the birth would be so swift. Previously, the women they had helped deliver were in labor pains for hours; even the faster ones took at least two hours. For someone with such a big belly, to have the child’s head appearing in less than two hours was unprecedented for them.
Earlier they were anxious, fearing that the child might be too big to deliver easily, that there might be trouble and they couldn’t escape responsibility. They really didn’t expect Mo Yan’s body to be so strong, that the child would so quickly enter the birth canal, which greatly relieved the midwives, making them even more careful in their actions.
"Umm—mmm—mmm—"
In the eyes of the midwives, it was quite fast, but to Mo Yan, who was enduring the severe pain moment by moment, it felt excruciatingly slow. Other than obeying the midwives’ commands to push, she no longer thought about why she ate so much, making the baby so big; she just focused on giving birth to the child safely, as her man was still waiting for her outside.
"The head is out, the baby’s head is out!" The midwives exclaimed, seeing that Mo Yan was conscious and not yet exhausted, they took the chance to boost her morale: "Madam, the baby’s head is already out, give it another push, and you’ll soon see your child."
Hearing the midwives’ shouts clearly, Mo Yan couldn’t help but burst into tears, not understanding why she was crying; perhaps it was the pain, or maybe because all this was finally ending, or perhaps because she was about to have a child of her own... ƒreewebɳovel.com
"How is it, how is Yanyan?"
Outside the room, Mo Qingze, having received the news, hurriedly arrived at the birthing room’s exterior to find his son-in-law standing still as if soulless at the entrance. He immediately asked Liu Tinglan, who seemed anxious by the side.
Liu Tinglan hadn’t expected Uncle Mo to come at this time and after a moment of stunned silence, she quickly replied, "The child’s head is out, Yanyan should be all right."
Upon hearing this, Mo Qingze slightly relaxed, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and leaned against the wall taking deep breaths.
When he learned his wife was about to give birth, Mo Qingze hurriedly took leave and rushed home, only to find after a short wait near the birthing room that people from the General Mansion had come to say his daughter was also giving birth.
Mo Qingze was worried both about his wife in the birthing room and his daughter at the General Mansion; he wished he could split himself in two, half to stay with his wife and half to watch over his daughter.
Knowing his wife was in stable condition and there would still be time before the child was born, he could not wait, and after speaking briefly to his wife in the birthing room, he hurried to the General Mansion.
"Wà wa~ wà wa~"
Just as everyone waited anxiously, suddenly a loud cry echoed from the birthing room.
This sound, like the singing of the heavens, caused Xiao Ruiyuan to awaken from his daze, and he stepped forward quickly to push the door of the birthing room. Just as he was about to exert force, the door opened from the inside, and a midwife came out, her face beaming with joy as she congratulated Xiao Ruiyuan, "Congratulations, Lord Hou, your lady has given you a beautiful daughter!"
