Chapter 151 Two Babies
Winter nights always come very early, just after dark, half an hour before the curfew, an ox cart stopped at the back door of Li's house.

Several servant girls helped a woman wrapped in a cloak, and carefully got on the bullock cart.

"Cousin, you can go with me, I'm afraid." Yu Susu got on the bullock cart, reached out and grabbed Jiang who was beside her, and said with a trembling voice.

"Don't be afraid, I'll let Liu Wenpo accompany you. If I also go there, it will be too conspicuous." Jiang Shi gently patted the back of Yu Susu's hand while comforting her.

Hu Susu seemed to be appeased, she nodded slightly, and slowly withdrew her hand.

Jiang watched the ox cart drift away until it disappeared completely, and then he was relieved.

After sending the man away, Mrs. Jiang went to Mrs. Li's place again. Knowing that the man had left, Mrs. Li was completely relieved, and she could sleep peacefully at night.

When Mrs. Jiang went back to her room, it was already past one watch. Li Yan had been waiting for her in the room. Seeing her coming back, he immediately brought her a cup of hot tea.

"Have a cup of tea to warm up first." Li Yan said softly while warming Jiang's hands.

After drinking a cup of hot scented tea, Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, and asked her husband softly, "Did Mei Meier and Kang Geer fall asleep?"

"Brother Kang went to bed early in the morning. I asked Baozi to take him to the cubicle. Mei Meier wanted to wait for you to come back. I saw that she was sleepy, so I drove her back to the room." Li Yan replied .

Knowing that the two children had rested, Jiang was relieved, and said with a sense of relief: "Finally, this big trouble has been sent away, and I don't know if my cousin can give birth to a child smoothly."

"We've done our best, don't worry about the next thing, take a good rest, whether it's good or bad depends on her fate." Li Yan didn't care about Yu Susu, only felt sorry for his wife who was so tired .

"Yeah, we did our best. I'm just wondering. My aunt knew that my cousin was going to give birth, so why didn't there be any news?" Mrs. Jiang was still a little confused about this, and said.

"If you think so much about what to do, she either doesn't want to come, or she can't come. The possibility of not coming is higher. When she can come, she will come naturally." Li Yan was much more thorough than Jiang's thought, Said lightly.

Jiang thought about it, and thought that the identity of the biological father of Yu Susu's child was not simple, and Aunt Zhuang must have been caught by someone or something, so she couldn't come here in time.

"Don't think about it, go to sleep." Li Yan took off his wife's coat, and after the couple washed up, they went to bed and rested.

At dawn the next day, Chunlan who had just left last night came back in a hurry.

Jiang Shi had just woken up at that time.Hearing that Nanny Lin said that she had returned, she guessed that it might be because of Hu Susu's birth.Because Mrs. Li hadn't woken up yet, Nanny Lin brought her to Mrs. Jiang first.

"Grandmother, our girl was activated last night, but she has been in pain all night, and the baby hasn't been born yet." Chunlan said to her with red eyes when she saw Jiang Shi.

Shocked, Jiang asked quickly, "Have you invited the doctor yet?"

"Please. At that time, Mrs. Wen said that it might be a dystocia, so the maid immediately went to invite Dr. Cui. After Dr. Cui went, he gave the injection immediately, which made it better. It's just that the lady has no strength and can't give birth. Cui The doctor said that it should not be delayed for too long, otherwise both adults and children will be in danger." Chunlan was sobbing as she spoke, with a helpless expression on her face.

"I'll go take a look with you." Jiang frowned, but decided to take a look, after all, it was two lives.She couldn't bear to ignore it.

Jiang immediately changed her clothes and followed Chunlan out.When they arrived at the family where Yu Susu was boarding, the old lady and the man were also anxiously waiting in the yard.

The family name is Wang, and the man's name is Wang Dalang. His father was a veteran who died on the battlefield shortly after he was born. He was raised by a widowed mother. Because of the poverty of his family, he did not marry his wife until he was 28 years old. , now that he is in his thirties, he has only had his first child. He naturally has a great desire for this child.

Jiang looked at the mother and the child, and felt a little puzzled, why they were so anxious when Su Su gave birth to a child.

"Grandma, in the early hours of the morning, their wife also mobilized." Seeing Jiang's puzzled face, Chunlan immediately explained in a low voice.

But she didn't say that the wife of this family was probably frightened by her own lady's miserable cry, so she activated it in advance.

Only then did Jiang suddenly realize, nodded, stepped forward and said politely: "Old sister-in-law, my younger sister has caused you trouble."

The old lady should be about the same age as Mrs. Li, but she seemed to be ten years older than her. She didn't look away from the door of the delivery room until Mrs. Jiang spoke to her, and she answered absent-mindedly. They are all hanging on the daughter-in-law who is giving birth inside.

Jiang Shi didn't say anything more, and waited patiently outside.Several people waited for another hour, and finally there was a loud cry of a baby in the delivery room.

"It's born! It's born!" Several people outside the house cheered up, and Wang Dalang wanted to rush into the delivery room immediately, but was stopped by the old lady, "Don't worry, the place in the delivery room is full of blood. It's not easy for men to go in, let's wait for a while, after Wen Po cleans up the child, it will come out naturally."

Wang Dalang nodded reluctantly, but his eyes were still glued to the door of the delivery room.

Jiang didn't know which one was born, but she thought she would find out after a while, so she didn't act immediately.

A moment later, another baby's cry sounded in the delivery room, but this one was obviously not as loud as the previous one, and the voice was thin and weak, like the meowing of a kitten.

A look of joy flashed across Chunlan's face immediately, two babies, which meant that their young lady must have also given birth.

Jiang Shi also breathed a sigh of relief, she finally survived, at least the child was born safely.

About a quarter of an hour later, Mrs. Wen came out with a child in her arms. Seeing the people waiting at the door, she glanced past Wang Dalang and Jiang, and immediately said to Wang Dalang: "Brother Wang Overjoyed, your wife gave birth to a daughter for you!"

When the old lady heard that she was a daughter, her old smiling face immediately collapsed, and her movements of connecting with the child froze for a moment.

Wang Dalang was still happy, and carefully took the child from Mrs. Wen, grinning almost to the ears, muttering, "Girl is good, girl is caring."

Jiang who was at the side glanced at the baby in the swaddle, saw that it was thin and weak, and had no bloody appearance, so she guessed that it should be the child born later.
