Because a doctor has long said that the birth of twins is often advanced, so Yan Bing's delivery room has been prepared at home after seven months of pregnancy.

"Boil hot water, scald scissors, hurry. Don't be afraid, lady, women will experience this, just boil it out. The older mother-in-law, surnamed An, instructed the little maid to do chores, and untied Yan Bing's skirt and leaned over to check.

Then she gave way to the young one to rub and investigate, Kang Niangzi rubbed slightly, and immediately straightened up and looked at Yan Bing and said softly: "I'm afraid I will have to wait a while before I give birth, what do you think, lady?" ”

Kang Niangzi was standing at the end of the bed at this time, Yan Bing, who was lying flat on the bed, could only see her face, and she didn't know that this person put her hand on her wrist and made a gesture of taking a pulse, signaling Nuan Xiang to hurry up and ask the doctor - the fetal head has not been completely down, how can this be born?

"Just, just stomach, throbbing a little, it's a swelling pain at this time, it's not bad," Yan Bing found herself trembling nervously as soon as she spoke, and quickly took a few deep breaths, and then asked again, "Yuan, Yuanlang...... What's going on? ”

Yaxiang immediately said with a smile next to her: "Lang Jun is fine!" Helping people catch demons and thieves has made another contribution, and he can't come back for the time being when he asks about the case in the yamen, and the slave has already asked someone to inform him. It's that little girl who can't speak, so I'll tell you the good news first. ”

In essence, God knows if Rong Langjun is okay, anyway, he has to say so.

Yaxiang is used to not lying, so Yan Bing naturally believed it and breathed a long sigh of relief, before she began to continue to pay attention to her body. The vague abdominal pain was not terrible and I don't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing, the legs were wet, and I gradually smelled blood because there was no incense in the room.

Yan Bing looked at An Niangzi and asked a little overwhelmed, "This, do you need to stop the bleeding?" ”

"No, no, it's just a small amount of bloodshed, which means that it is about to give birth, and it is not dangerous." An Niangzi gently helped Yan Bing rub her abdomen while explaining, wanting to adjust the position of the fetus and assist it to sink into the birth canal.

An Niangzi suddenly remembered this, and quickly raised her voice and asked, "Did Niangzi change her clothes before?" ”

"I didn't change my clothes." Yan Bing's face was dazed, and she replied casually. At the same time, Nuan Xiang said on the side: "No." ”

She and Kang Niangzi exchanged glances again, and without waiting for the doctor for the time being, they quickly made another decision, one left and one right, set up Yan Bing, and led her to the right side of the bed behind the magpie spring three-fold screen, where a tall mahogany bucket with a backrest and armrests was placed.

Yan Bingzheng was a little confused, so she heard the two of them say respectfully at the same time: "Please change your clothes, Qingqing Valley Road." ”

“…… Am I having a difficult birth? After she sat down, she realized that Qinggu Road meant that the fetus had not yet entered the pelvis, and she wanted to use this method to see if she could make room for the baby to fall smoothly.

"How is it possible, it will definitely go smoothly!" Seeing that the master said something stupid, Nuan Xiang hurriedly pretended to spit and said, "Bah, there are no taboos, no taboos!" ”

“…… Well. Yan Bing smiled, and then acted on the midwife's instructions with both nervousness and confusion.

Not long after, Mrs. Ye hurried from the front yard with the doctor, and the old man with a goatee checked her pulse through the curtain, and then went to the outside room to explain softly that Yan Bing was born prematurely due to fear and cowardice in labor.

"Huh?!" Mrs. Ye was suddenly flustered and weak, and hurriedly asked, "Is it serious?" What should I do? ”

The doctor explained while writing the prescription: "The old man prescribes a prescription and quickly decoctions the medicine." Atractylodes, yams, poria cocos, ginseng, eel bones, cinnamon, etc. are used to make the soup. After eating, see if it is effective, and then supplemented with massage and acupuncture. If the attack has not been officially carried out by night, then you can only take oxytocic drugs. ”

"Okay, then Bai Zhi, hurry up and prepare the decoction." Mrs. Ye pointed to a maidservant to take care of the matter.

At the same time, I calculated: The common medicines for eating at home have long been prepared, and the medicine can't be delayed, although the decoction is a little slower, but it just makes room for Yan Bing to eat something to pad her stomach.

Not long after, a servant girl presented meat soup and steamed eggs to Yan Bing to add food, and later drank medicine, and after a break, it was dusk in the blink of an eye.

The abdomen was still full of swelling, but there was no "sharp throbbing" as the midwife said, and Yan Bing, who had read a few pages of medical books before, suddenly understood that she had not yet had real contractions during labor.

Yan Bing sighed helplessly, and then used snacks and hot buttermilk to maintain her strength. Subsequently, another doctor came to acupuncture and massage her, but it had no effect.

"Help me up." Yan Bing gritted her teeth, ordered Nuan Xiang and Ya Xiang to help her out of bed, and began to take steps under the frightened sight of the personal maid.

"What are you going to do here?! Hurry back and lie down. Mrs. Ye, who was sitting outside and was full of anxiety, was suddenly startled when she saw Yan Bing walking out of the screen with her big belly up.

"It's uncomfortable to sleep for a long time, and I'm active." Yan Bing smiled lightly at her mother-in-law, not only did she keep walking indoors, but she also planned to do dangerous actions such as squatting and climbing ladders.

"How can this work? Stop! Mrs. Ye hurriedly spoke out to stop her, but she was already a soft-tempered woman, and she couldn't command Yaxiang and Nuan Xiang, so she could only watch her daughter-in-law stubbornly continue to move.

"Hey! You are really ......" Mrs. Ye was so anxious but helpless, she only pointed to a servant girl and said, "Hurry up and ask the doctor next door, is this okay." ”

There was not only a doctor sitting next door, but also General Duan, and within a few words, he walked to the door and said sharply: "Ah Bing, go back and lie down!" Do you want me to have you bound up? ”

"......" Yan Bing knew that General Duan was doing what he said, so he couldn't help but stop, but he was full of grievances and had nowhere to say.

It's just that the water didn't break when she saw the red, she remembered that when she was with her best friend in the obstetrics and gynecology hospital in the past, she saw many pregnant women climbing the stairs to give birth, this method must be easy to use, but unfortunately the ancients didn't understand, and the husband who could explain it well was not around.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look out the window and wondered, "It's almost dark, why hasn't Yuanlang gone home yet?" ”

"I'm almost back, and I've already handed him a letter, saying that I'm on the way. You are obedient, lie down quickly. Mrs. Ye hurriedly answered, and personally stretched out her hand to help her go back to the inner room to rest.

However, her words made Yan Bing suspicious: "Didn't you already deliver the letter at noon?" My father has already returned...... Isn't it, is it true that Maitreya disciples ......? ”

Speaking of the end, Yan Bing's voice trembled, lest her husband have a big accident. Under this startle, another wave of heat gushed out from between his legs, and when he buried his head, he saw a clear puddle of water on the ground.

Broken water...... Now he had to lie down with his legs raised.

"Look at this, alas! Hurry up, help in! Mrs. Ye was so anxious that she couldn't complain, so she hurriedly asked her to lie down.

Just when there was chaos in the house, Yan Bing was crying silently and feeling uncomfortable, but Wen Yuan really went home!

I saw that he first glared at the little maid who was in trouble, and then he broke into the delivery room directly despite everyone's objections, strode to Yan Bing's bed and sat down, looking at her white little face and couldn't help sighing.

Then, he raised his hand slightly, carefully wiped away the tears hanging on Yan Bing's cheeks, held her hand tightly, and smiled lightly and comforted: "You see why are you in a hurry? Am I just coming back? There are too many things to do, and you can't get away from it. ”

"Well, it's good to be back." Yan Bing burst into tears and laughed, the big stone in her heart finally fell, and she suddenly felt that her foreboding and entanglement were really wronged.

"I'm back safely, can you also put your mind at ease and give birth smoothly?" He leaned over lightly and rubbed the tip of his wife's nose with his forehead, and gave him an affectionate kiss of encouragement on his pink lips.

Without waiting for Yan Bing to answer, he got up again and said, "I'll go and ask the doctor about your condition first, and then wait outside, don't be afraid, if you feel uncomfortable, I'll come in and accompany you when you feel uncomfortable, okay?" ”

"Okay." Yan Bing gently agreed, and then smiled and watched her husband leave the delivery room at the urging of the maidservant.

She didn't know at all that Wen Yuan had just stumbled around the screen and just went out, and it was only by General Duan that she stabilized her figure and didn't fall down.

When he went to the next door, he immediately gasped and collapsed in the circle chair, in exchange for General Duan's cold gaze: "What is strong?" You should lie down too! ”

"After Ah Bing is successfully born, my son will go to lie down and recuperate." After Wen Yuan replied hastily, he turned his head and went to the doctor to discuss Yan Bing's situation with the midwife, and he didn't have time to take care of his adoptive father.

He didn't listen to two sentences when he saw the doctor say with a sad face that he needed to give birth, and couldn't help asking, "What's the matter?" Does the Birth Pill need to be made? ”

"That's not necessary, there are ready-made ones, just eat one." As he spoke, the doctor took out a white porcelain bottle sealed with a cork from the medicine box and placed it on the desk.

It is made of musk, frankincense, ejiao, Sichuan aconitum, aconite, southern star, mother clove and rabbit brain marrow, etc., and needs to be served with half a bowl of wine.

Medicines are not expensive and often have miraculous effects, but there are difficulties in using them......

"Although this pill is not a medicine for tigers and wolves, it is a birth after all, if it cannot be born within an hour or two after taking the medicine...... The lady may faint with weakness or even collapse in blood. Although the doctor found it difficult to speak, he still did not hesitate to tell the danger first, so that everyone could be mentally prepared.

The doctor just heard the midwife say that the fetus is the head position that can be delivered smoothly, so if it is a single child, it will definitely be able to give birth smoothly an hour after the medication, but the twin babies take more time, and it is not clear whether the second one will still be in the head position, which is naturally very dangerous.

Wen Yuan took a deep breath, only to feel a pain under his ribs, and it seemed that blood was oozing out again, he didn't care about checking his injury, he only stared at the doctor and said, "What happens if you don't use medicine?" ”

"Wait for another half an hour at most, this is both red and broken, if you don't induce labor, it must be ......" The doctor spread his hands and said in a low voice with a stiff face, "The fetus is stillborn." ”

General Duan immediately figured out the key point, and muttered: "That is to say, if you induce labor, you can get at least one?" ”

Wen Yuan's focus was completely different, and he immediately asked, "Will it hurt her a lot to induce labor now?" ”

"If you don't give birth, you're gone...... In the end, you have to use medicine to induce labor, and there is not much difference. The doctor said the final result, and then looked at General Duan, in his opinion, the decision should be in the hands of the patriarch.

"Hey." General Duan replied without thinking.

Wen Yuan suddenly jumped up regardless of the pain, reached out and grabbed the medicine bottle firmly in his hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Wait!" ”
