Chapter 416: Are You Ready to Eat Shit?

~8 min read 1,522 words

Setting aside the differences in diet between home and abroad, the act of a woman giving birth alone involves a major ordeal for the gastrointestinal tract and other abdominal organs.

There will also be bleeding, tearing, and similar wounds.

It is said that it takes a hundred days to recover from broken bones or tendons, yet a woman only rests for one month after giving birth.

The golden words of wisdom passed down by our ancestors are naturally reasonable.

"After all, the child is important, isn't it?"

This sentence finally moved Jiang Qi, and she nodded.

In truth, having her stay over didn't cause Si Rong much trouble; the one who was mainly tired was Wang Ma, who had to cook for one extra person, though the laundry was fine since the family had a washing machine.

However, Si Rong prepared to give Wang Ma an extra red envelope this month.

Although in this life and the last, her bond with Wang Ma could no longer be measured by money, everyone was a mortal after all, and everyone needed money.

And she was not short on money right now.

Thinking that there were many things to do the next day, Si Rong went to sleep very early, but she did not expect to be woken up in the middle of the night.

Jiang Qi?

Jiang Cheng had already woken up and was putting on his clothes; seeing her wake up, he said, "Don't get out of bed yet. It seems the power is out; don't bump your legs. I'll go see what's wrong with our sister."

"Okay."

Si Rong did indeed find it easy to bump her legs at night, and she envied Jiang Cheng's eyesight; he was worthy of having been tested by the military, as his night vision was excellent.

After a while, she heard the sound of Jiang Cheng entering the room and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with our sister?"

"She says her stomach hurts."

"Then it's likely she's going into labor," Si Rong said, fumbling to change her clothes. "Let's go accompany Sister to the hospital first and let Wang Ma stay home to look after the children."

"Okay."

Jiang Qi was sweating from the pain, and seeing that she had dragged her brother and sister-in-law out of bed in the middle of the night, she felt quite embarrassed.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know it would happen so fast."

"We're family, why say sorry?" Si Rong grabbed her hand. "How are you feeling now?"

"It hurts, it hurts in waves."

Hearing her description, Si Rong knew it was the labor pains before a woman gives birth.

"It's okay, lean back on the seat and rest when it doesn't hurt, and save your strength for giving birth at the hospital."

"By the way, I also brought some things that might be needed after the baby is born."

It was what Hu Qian and Mother Si had prepared when she gave birth, and they had prepared quite a lot.

"They are all new and clean."

Jiang Qi felt only gratitude and could not say anything else.

She hadn't prepared anything at all, thinking that the hospital would sell everything.

"When is our mom coming?"

Jiang Qi suddenly wanted to see her mother very much, even though she knew in her heart that no one could help her with the act of giving birth.

"Once we get to the hospital, we'll have Jiang Cheng call our mom."

After arriving at the hospital, Si Rong accompanied Jiang Qi to the emergency room, and soon, they were taken to the delivery room.

"Rongrong, I'm a little scared," Jiang Qi felt that she had broken out in a lot of sweat; she was very nervous, so nervous that her body was trembling. "The elders often say that when a woman gives birth, one leg is already in the gates of hell. Will I..."

"No, you won't!" Si Rong hurriedly interrupted her inauspicious words. "I am certain that you will safely give birth to the child."

"By the way, when Jiang Cheng comes over, I'll go help you find the director of the obstetrics department. She is very experienced in delivering babies and won't let anything happen to you."

"Okay, thank you."

Jiang Qi knew that for a sister-in-law to do as much as Si Rong had was truly not easy.

Although she had given the other party's child a red envelope, Si Rong was not short on money to begin with.

She had heard her mother say that Si Rong's business was very large now, and it had long since surpassed Jiang Cheng's monthly salary by a wide margin.

With the obstetric director Si Rong had invited, the Jiang Family felt much more at ease.

The family sat outside the delivery room; it was already the early hours of the morning. Jiang Cheng took off his coat and draped it over Si Rong's shoulders, and her body warmed up.

Jiang Yu followed suit, wanting to take off his own coat to give to his wife and look cool.

"Do you want to freeze to death?" Xu Yan pointed at the thin shirt inside his cotton-padded jacket. "Put it on immediately!"

Jiang Yu didn't take it off again; he simply wrapped his wife inside his coat and then looked at Jiang Cheng with a provocative expression.

How about that? His move, wasn't it cool?

Jiang Cheng:...

You don't say, you really don't say.

It was quite greasy.

"You all should just go home and rest," Hu Qian didn't want the two daughters-in-law to be dragged along. "Rongrong has two little ones at home, and Yanyan is pregnant now. All of you go back; your father and I will be here."

Jiang Yu immediately looked at his wife, and seeing her face was sallow, he said, "Then we'll head back first. Yanyan has had morning sickness these days and hasn't rested well."

"Wife, I'll take you back first," Jiang Cheng also said. "Tomorrow morning when the little ones wake up, they'll be clamoring for you."

Si Rong didn't insist further; she had already done everything she could, and with so many people guarding here, she really couldn't help with much.

"Alright, then I'll head back first and come to bring food to Sister tomorrow at noon."

Si Rong went back to catch up on sleep, and when she woke up the next day, she had Wang Ma make a bowl of five-red soup and egg pancakes to take to the hospital.

Jiang Qi had already successfully given birth, and both mother and daughter were safe.

The little girl inherited her mother's good looks; although she was sleeping with her eyes closed, one could tell from her bone structure that she would be a beauty in the future.

Hu Qian saw Si Rong's fondness and asked her, "Do you want to hold her?"

"No rush, let the little one sleep first."

Hu Qian nodded, half-closed the door, and went out to say to Si Rong, "She cried so loudly when she was born, she only fell asleep now because she's tired."

"Do we need to prepare some milk powder?" Si Rong asked.

Hu Qian shook her head, "Don't bother, I already had your dad buy everything."

"It's just worrying, your sister here, she suddenly gave birth to a child, what will happen in the future?"

"When asked about that man, she won't say anything."

Si Rong advised, "My sister shouldn't get angry right after giving birth, otherwise her milk might dry up. The matter has already happened and the child is born, so it's better to let things take their course for now."

"Hmm, what you say makes sense. I had your dad send Nainai back to the village too, and we've prepared a room at home for her to return and have her postpartum confinement."

"Do you think that's okay?"

Si Rong knew that her mother-in-law was cautiously testing her attitude; after all, there is an old saying that if a woman has brothers in her maiden home, she cannot return to her maiden home for postpartum confinement.

"Mom, I have no objections."

Si Rong didn't say anything else; after all, she wasn't the only daughter-in-law in the Jiang Family.

"Hmm, you and Yanyan are both good," tears flashed faintly in Hu Qian's eyes, "Mom thanks you both."

Jiang Siyu also came to the hospital to see her aunt and little sister.

Yes, in her past life Jiang Zhi was the older sister, but in this life, she has become the younger sister.

Jiang Siyu was very happy; in this family, she was finally no longer the youngest.

However, what she was even happier about was that it was finally Monday.

She had never longed for school so much before.

As soon as she saw Xiao Pang, she asked, "Hey, are you ready to eat shit?"

Xiao Pang:...

"It's not certain that I'll lose," he shook his chubby head, "Did you bring money to buy me crispy noodles?"

Amidst the two of them arguing, Huang Laoshi walked in carrying a stack of test papers.
