Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Granny Chen was a midwife in San Cha Kou Village. She delivered almost all the babies in the village, so her skills were guaranteed.
Gu Hui was really strong. She carried her mother all the way back without stopping.
Lady Zhang’s howls were quite loud. Before they entered the courtyard, everyone in the house heard them.
There were only the old couple and the Zhang family’s youngest daughter, Gu Si. Gu Shouren and Gu Shouyi had gone out, while Gu En had gone to school.
“What’s wrong with Mother?” Gu Si put down the chicken food in her hand and clapped her hands as she ran over.
“Go boil the water. Mother is going into labor,” Gu Hui instructed without further ado.
Cai Xiaolian turned to Gu Nian and said, “Nian Nian, help your cousin boil the water.”
“Okay.” Gu Nian placed the basket beside the pigsty and followed her to the kitchen to help boil the water. Just as she reached the kitchen door, she ran into an energetic old lady.
Gu Nian guessed that this was the original owner’s grandmother, Gu Xianglan, the only daughter of the hunter family. It was said that she was capable of killing a wild boar by herself. She hurriedly called for help, “Grandma…”
“Okay, I’ll go take a look.” Gu Xianglan nodded. She only gave Gu Nian a curious look before walking away.
She wasn’t familiar with the eldest granddaughter of the second wife. Other than seeing this girl on New Year’s and festive occasions, this girl rarely came to the old house. It was rather strange today.
“Eldest Cousin, I’ll start the fire. You just add water to the pot.” Gu Si had already started the fire with the fire that had not been extinguished by the morning cooking.
“Okay.” Gu Nian saw the water ladle and also the water tank. She nodded and went to scoop the water.
After a while, Gu Xin pulled Granny Chen over. The old and the young were both panting.
“Second Girl ran really fast. This old woman can’t keep up with her!” Granny Chen patted her heart.
“Ouch! Ouch! Ah! Ah!…” The screams of Mrs Zhang came from inside the house.
“Granny Chen, my aunt is very uncomfortable. You should go and take a look!” Gu Xin wiped the sweat from his forehead and spoke anxiously.
“Okay!” Granny Chen went into Mrs Zhang’s house.
Gu Xin ran to the kitchen to help boil the water.
Mrs Zhang had been crying for an hour. Her voice was hoarse, but she hadn’t given birth yet.
She was almost exhausted, but she didn’t forget to grab Cai Xiaolian.
“Mother, you have to work harder. It’s coming out. You have to work harder!” Granny Chen encouraged Mrs Zhang.
“Ah! I have no strength! Mother, I have no strength. It’s all Cai Xiaolian. Cai Xiaolian scolded me. That’s why I had an attack so early! Mother, if I die, you have to make a decision for me!” Mrs Zhang said without strength, but her voice was very loud.
“If you die, I’ll immediately find a stepmother for my grandchild and his siblings. The stepmother abused your son, so you can watch from the sky and cry!” Gu Xianglan said coldly.
Cai Xiaolian also said from the side, “Sister-in-law, it’s not that I want to scold you, but you deserve it. You came to my house so early in the morning for no reason! The heavens can’t stand it anymore. Even the child in your stomach can’t stand it anymore and wants to come out and stop you! Why are you glaring at me? You want to hit me? You want to scold me? If you have the ability, give birth to the child! I’m afraid of you! If you die, I’ll pass on your son to me as my son in the future. Anyway, you said that I can’t give birth to a son!”
Gu Xianglan looked at Cai Xiaolian in surprise.
“Ya! Cai Xiaolian, you shameless woman, just you wait! Don’t even think about it! That’s my son, you old hen who can’t lay eggs!”
“Ah! Ah! Ah!”
Lady Zhang was furious. Just now, she felt that she was going to be exhausted, but in an instant, she felt refreshed.
