Chapter 19

"Doctor, please bring the medicine and come with me." Chen Dazhong watched as the doctor at Renjitang took out a small string of copper coins and stuffed them into his hand, "We brought the money for the medicine, and I gave everything from ginseng to my eldest daughter." superior."

With Chen Dazhong's words, the doctor went to carry the medicine box.

"Xiuyan, you..."

"Father, you go, Xiaoyue and I are waiting for you here." Chen Xiuyan's words eased Chen Dazhong's heart, and when the doctor was ready to turn around, he dragged people away.

"Is shopkeeper Yan here?" Chen Xiuyan looked at the apprentices in the lobby and asked.

"Miss knows our Shopkeeper Yan?"

"What's going on, why are you making so much noise?" The shopkeeper came down from the second floor as soon as the apprentice finished speaking.

"Miss Chen?" Shopkeeper Yan held the abacus in his hand, and his eyes lit up instantly when he saw Chen Xiuyan.

"Trouble shopkeeper Yan, please help me find a stable woman to deliver the baby." Chen Xiuyan looked at shopkeeper Yan and said.

"Songbai, go and invite Madam Xu."

The shopkeeper Yan's words made the apprentice stunned for a moment, "The shopkeeper is talking about that mother Xu from your mansion?"

"Yes, what are you doing in a daze, go quickly."

"Oh, yes, yes." Cong Bai hurried out.

"Miss Chen, don't worry, Madam Xu is a good midwife I specially invited from the provincial capital. My daughter-in-law is going to give birth next month, and I went to pick her up just two days ago." Shopkeeper Yan explained.

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Yan." Chen Xiuyan thanked, "I will remember this kindness."

"Miss Chen is out of sight, right?" Shopkeeper Yan said warmly, "I haven't thanked Miss Chen yet, because Miss Chen is going to see me tomorrow."

"Shopkeeper Yan is being modest, these are Shopkeeper Yan's own abilities." Chen Xiuyan didn't want to talk about these things at this time, and Shopkeeper Yan is also a good person, so she immediately realized it.

"I'll ask someone to prepare things. Ms. Chen will wait here for a while." Shopkeeper Yan went to the backyard and ordered someone to tidy up a room, and also asked someone to boil hot water, boil new white cloth, scissors, etc.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Dazhong and his party returned, and Chen Muzhu hugged Chen Xiujuan, who was lying on the donkey cart with a pale face and sweat all over her body. Although her lower body was covered with a quilt, there was a strong smell of blood.

"Shopkeeper Yan, Mother Xu is here."

A woman in her forties, wearing a reddish-brown skirt and a wooden hairpin, presided over the overall situation as soon as she came in, "Take him to the backyard, is Mr. Yan's room ready?"

"It's ready, the second room on the left in the backyard, all the things we need are in the hot pot now." Shopkeeper Yan replied immediately.

"Hold people into the house." Madam Xu said, "Come help me, and don't let anyone else come in."

"I'll come." Zhang Cang hurriedly wanted to enter the door.

"You are not suitable, you are too dirty." Madam Xu frowned and stopped Zhang Cang.

"She is my wife." Zhang Cang's eyes were red and his words choked up.

"That's even more inappropriate. You can easily hinder me like this."

"I'll do it." Chen Xiuyan stepped forward and looked directly at Madam Xu, and volunteered.

"Mother Xu, Miss Chen knows medical skills." Shopkeeper Yan approached and whispered to Mother Xu, and Mother Xu turned sideways to let Chen Xiuyan into the room.

When Chen Xiuyan entered the room, she saw Chen Xiujuan lying on the kang with no strength to moan. She felt tense, and hurried over, took out a clean handkerchief to wipe Chen Xiujuan's forehead and cheeks, and took the opportunity to guide water to Chen Xiujuan's mouth. inside.

Seeing that people could still swallow, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Nanny Xu directly lifted the quilt from Chen Xiujuan's body, and took off the skirt on her lower body, "You haven't opened your fingers yet, let someone make something, otherwise she won't have the strength to wait."

Chen Xiuyan put away the handkerchief, and went out to ask Mrs. Liu to prepare food.

"Little sister?" When Chen Xiuyan returned to the bed again, Chen Xiujuan had already regained consciousness.

"Sister." Chen Xiuyan stuffed a piece of ginseng into Chen Xiujuan's mouth, "Hold this."

"This is... how can I use Han..."

"Sister, think about brother-in-law, Xiaoyue and sisters, the child in your stomach, and yourself." Chen Xiuyan comforted.

Chen Xiujuan looked at her own sister in front of her, and always felt that something was different, but the occasional labor pain made her have no time to think about it.

After that, I fed Chen Xiujuan a bowl of brown sugar eggs, and my strength returned even more.

Madam Xu has more than 20 years of experience in delivering babies, and Chen Xiuyan was on the sidelines to help her with the things she needed. Two hours later, a loud cry of a baby made everyone inside and outside the house breathe a sigh of relief.

"If there is no hemorrhage, then there is no problem. Your body is in good shape." Madam Xu smiled as she looked at Chen Xiujuan, who was exhausted but still somewhat energetic, and put the infant baby beside her, "Congratulations, it's a healthy baby." kid."

Chen Xiujuan burst into tears instantly, "It's my son, I finally have a son, and I can finally separate the family."

Realizing that what she said now was inappropriate, Chen Xiujuan restrained her emotions, "Thank you, doctor."

Chen Xiuyan sent Aunt Xu out of the house, and shared the good news with the Liu family outside the house, "Father, mother, brother-in-law, my sister gave birth, mother and child are safe."

"Mother and son!" Mrs. Liu exclaimed and began to pray, "Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless, my Xiujuan can finally straighten her waist."

Zhang Cang squatted down and began to cry, while Zhang Xiaoyue was also crying.

Chen Dazhong took out a red envelope and handed it to Madam Xu, "Thank you Madam Xu."

Mother Xu accepted it with a smile without refusing, "I'll go back first, let the mother eat better during the confinement period, and I can make up for the bleeding today."

"Hey, thank you Madam Xu, thank you." Zhang Cang finally came to his senses and thanked him again and again.

"Ms. Chen, it's already a curfew at this time. You can stay in the backyard of the hospital for one night today. I just had my room cleaned up and some meals cooked." Out and into the backyard.

"Trouble shopkeeper Yan."

Zhang Cang and Zhang Xiaoyue went to the room to see Chen Xiujuan and the child, Chen Dazhong and the others finally sat down and started to eat.

"This time we will personally send Xiujuan and the child back to Zhangjia'ao. I want to see the face of that tricky woman. Will I dare to say that our family is Xiujuan in the future? Hmph." After Liu was happy, she was angry with her in-laws.

"Why didn't I realize that the cunning woman is such a person before? If she is as good as that, it's two lives. My daughter's stomach is not the grandson of their Zhang family." The more Liu said, the more angry she became.

"Okay, what are you shouting about now, you can tell me when you go to Zhangjia'ao tomorrow." Chen Dazhong put a piece of chicken leg meat into Liu's bowl.

"Hey Xiuyan, how do you know the shopkeeper Yan? Not only did you invite a good woman, but you also prepared these. This dish is also rich enough." Mrs. Liu asked, looking at the dishes that also had chicken and eggs.

"I met yesterday when I was helping Mrs. Wang." Chen Xiuyan didn't explain much, and others could make up more by talking less.

"By the way, I just heard from my sister that she wants to separate." Chen Xiuyan changed the subject and brought the focus back to Chen Xiujuan.
