In less than 15 minutes, Sister Tian rushed in and asked, How is she? When did it start to hurt?

Im not sure, but it seems like shes been in pain for quite a while. Zhou Ying shook her head.

About two hours. At first, it was just a burst of pain, but the real pain started about fifteen minutes ago. Qiu Niang replied, panting heavily.

Thats good. It appears that we will have some more time. Elder sister Tian heaved a sigh of relief, then said to Zhou Ying, Sister, please take care of her for a while. I must clean up the delivery room and boil some water quickly.

Alright. By the way, the midwife

Xing w.a.n.g went to get her. He ran fast. After Elder Sister Tian finished speaking, she turned around and left.

After a while, Tian Jiaw.a.n.g came over with a white-haired woman. Zhou Ying briefly explained the situation and turned to go home.

After dinner, Qiu Niangs screams finally stopped, and soon, the tender cry of a baby could be heard.

Zhou Ying finally heaved a sigh of relief. This delivery sounded scary. It took ten hours, and it should be life-threatening.

She should be fine. Some women give birth for two days and two nights. Otherwise, there wouldnt be so many women who died from difficult labor. Gu Chengrui paused for a moment. He was afraid of scaring her, so he quickly and carefully said, Of course, it will go smoothly with a healthy body.

Zhou Ying looked at his eager expression and smiled. Dont worry; I understand. I wont be scared.

Thats good. Gu Chengrui laughed and continued, By the way, tomorrow morning, send them 20 eggs and 5 pounds of black noodles.

Arent the eggs a little too few? Were their bosses, right?

Its quite a lot in these times. Nowadays, anyone who can eat an egg is living well, not to mention the black noodles.

At most, Ill send more over when we have the opportunity in the future. Otherwise, itll be hard to explain with just three chickens in our backyard.

Ill do as you say, then. Ill also give them a small jar of red sugar fermented rice.

Thats okay.

The following day, after Gu Chengrui left, Zhou Ying carried a basket and a small bag to their neighbor.

Seeing that Tian Jiaw.a.n.g was slaughtering chickens in the courtyard, she walked over and asked, Brother Tian, are you preparing to make chicken soup?

Yes, its for Qiu Niangs nourishment. Tian Jiaw.a.n.g stood up and answered.

Thats great. Anything for the mother and child, right?

There was nothing good I could give this year.

Ive brought some black noodles, eggs, and a jar of fermented rice in red sugar as a token of our appreciation.

This is already lovely. Qiu Niang needs these, so thank you very much. Tian Jiaw.a.n.g thanked her happily. He took the goods and said, Lets go in and see the child.

In two days. The child is too young now; I shouldnt risk the baby catching a cold.

Oh right, try not to let Qiu Niang eat the sweet potatoes as much as possible; that will make her stomach bloated. Zhou Ying asked curiously, Did she give birth to a boy or a girl?

Its a chubby boy, Tian Jiaw.a.n.g grinned.

Congratulations, Brother Tian. Alright, Ill leave you to your work as I have to go back to sun-dry the white potatoes. After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she turned around and went home to get busy.

When it was almost noon, they suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps, followed by Er Zhuangs barking.

She saw Qian s.h.i.+san rus.h.i.+ng in with a refugee carrying a three or

four-year-old boy; behind them was a woman crying.

Zhou Ying was stunned for a moment.. She quickly got up and asked while stopping Ere Zhuang, Thirteenth Uncle, um
