Chapter 584: Midwifery

sent it all to my yard. Am I supposed to live picking up the scraps she doesn't want”>Chu Tianqi looked at her hysterical and unfamiliar appearance, shaking his head in disappointment: "F'er, I didn't...Seeing Xiao Yuge and Chu Tianqi's intimate gestures, Qian Sichin felt anxious, but when he met Xiao Yuge's icy eyes, he couldn't help but stop.

After some inquiry, it was learned that Qian Sichin's trip was actually for the Empress Dowager. She had heard that the divine tea from the Wen family could cure various ailments, so she wanted to come here and get some back; while Chu Tianqi was here because Xiao Zhan's old injury had recurred these days, so he also wanted to come here to ask for some divine tea to take back. However, they didn't know that the Wen family had rules, and anyone from the royal court would not be given divine tea.

"Ge'er, where are you staying at the inn now" Chu Tianqi naturally followed her after seeing her.

"We live at the inn on the west side of town."

"We also live at the West City Inn!"

It turns out they were all living in the same inn. They must have arrived ahead of us when we stopped along the way.

"Brother, I'm now called Xiao Yu, the rain from the sky. Please don't get it wrong," Xiao Yuge said, and then glanced at Qian Sichin, but still didn't give him a good look.

"Well, alright." Chu Tianqi saw that she didn't like Qian Sichin. There was a slight sense of satisfaction in his heart.

They unwittingly wandered off course, but happened to see an elderly couple arguing in front of them.

“Old man, I won’t go get the tea today. There are three days for offering tea, so there’s no need to rush this one. Our son is still at his in-law's place and hasn't returned yet. His wife is about to give birth any day now, but the midwife hasn’t shown up yet. If you leave again, leaving me all alone, what will I do” The old woman pleaded with tears welling up in her eyes.

Unexpectedly, the old man remained unmoved after hearing this. Instead, he pushed his wife away: "You old hag, these three days are free tea distribution days. If we don't go and get some, what will we eat later Relying on our son's few coins earned from working on the farm to buy tea won't be enough! You can endure it without that tea, but I can't. So, no matter what you say today, I'm going. Figure it out yourself."

After the old man finished speaking, he hunched over and walked away, leaving only a cold and indifferent figure behind.

The old woman was knocked aside, her thin body struggled for a long time but couldn't stand up. At this moment, there were heart-wrenching screams coming from inside the room. She endured the pain and stood up again.

"Auntie, are you alright" Xiao Yuge hurried forward to help her up.

The old woman raised her tear-filled eyes, glancing at them with a look of apprehension: "Gentlemen, you... what do you want"

"Auntie, don't be afraid, we're not bad people." Xiao Yuge knew that their attire was out of place, and it was normal for her to be suspicious.

"Mother!"

At that moment, there came again from the house a heart-wrenching scream from a woman.

"Tao'er!" The old woman, upon hearing this, immediately panicked and disregarded Xiao Yu Ge and the others. She trembled as she turned around and entered the room.

Xiao Yuge glanced at the others, and they decided to go in and see what was going on.

"Ah!"

Screams echoed from within the house, followed by the wife's voice intermittently: "Tao'er ah, bear with it a little longer, the midwife will be here soon."

"Mother, my daughter-in-law is about to die!" The woman's cries were piercing and desperate, sounding terrifyingly real.

Outside, Xiao Yu Ge and the others looked at each other, glancing at the door from time to time, but there was no midwife in sight. Among them, Chu Tian Qi and Qian Si Chen didn't know medicine, but Xiao Yu Ge couldn't deliver babies either. He Ming was a divine doctor, but he was just a man, and had never delivered a baby before.

"Ta'er, Ta'er, don't frighten your mother! Hold on!" The voice of the wife inside the house sounded as if she was in a state of utter panic and desperation.

The woman who was once called Tao'er now seemed to have a weaker voice. The several people outside also seemed to realize the seriousness of the situation.

"Brother, can you deliver the baby" At this point, there was no way to stand idly by. The midwife was taking too long; couldn't they just let the woman inside die

"I'm a man, how could I possibly deliver a baby" Crane's brow furrowed with a bead of sweat; he truly couldn't do such a thing.

"We can't worry about that now, as doctors, we can't stand by and watch someone die!" He said, grabbing Crested Bird's arm and heading into the room.

"Little junior sister!" Hé Rmíng was pulled with a jolt, couldn't stop his feet, and walked in after her.

“Master, who are you” The old woman saw them burst in and immediately became alert, grabbing a stick to defend herself. “Who are you What are you doing here Get out! My daughter-in-law is about to give birth! Leave now!” In fact, at her age, wielding that stick was just to scare little children.

Xiao Yu Ge hurriedly explained: "Auntie, please don't misunderstand us. We are both doctors. This lady looks like she's about to give birth. We came in to see if we can help."

“You, you are really doctors” The old woman looked them up and down, but still blocked her daughter-in-law’s way: “But my daughter-in-law is about to give birth, you are men, how can you deliver the baby Get out quickly, the midwife will be here soon!”

"Ah!" At that moment, the woman on the bed clutched her swollen belly and cried out in agony again, her hand clutching the sheets, already damp with sweat.

The old woman anxiously glanced outside again and again, but her eyes returned to disappointment.

Seeing the woman's condition worsen, Xiao Yuge also grew anxious. Thinking quickly, she took off the ornate hair comb from her head, letting down her long, glossy black hair. "Auntie," she said, "Look, I am a woman and also a doctor. Although I haven't delivered a baby before, my senior brother is a divine physician. We can try together."

"You, you are really a woman" The old woman saw Xiao Yu Ge's black hair, and upon closer inspection, she was indeed a beautiful young woman. However, her voice still made her doubtful.

Xiao Yu sang from her body took out a sound-changing pill and swallowed it. In a moment, she spoke again, her voice now that of a young girl: "Auntie, you should believe me now, the midwife won't be coming, if we delay any longer, this sister will be in danger."

"Alright. Please save my daughter-in-law and the child in her womb!" At this point, the wife had lost all sense of composure and could only believe Xiao Yuge's words.

"Senior brother, what should I do" Xiao Yu Ge wanted to help, but she was still a child herself. She had no idea how to handle this kind of situation, so she could only ask for help from He Ming.

He stroked his chin, turned to her and said calmly, "Junior Sister, why don't you go get some hot water from outside first, and prepare some rice porridge as well." Though he hadn't personally treated someone before, he had read some books on this subject, so he wasn't completely unfamiliar with it.e with His Highness the Crown Prince, and now she is also the chosen one by Heaven. Naturally, they are a perfect match made by heaven. I just felt a bit stifled, so I took a few turns at the door.""...
