Upon hearing the son-in-lawâs question, Han Chunxue noticed Yuan Yikaiâs forehead full of fine sweat: "Donât scare yourself, if there are no sounds, Gu Qing must have instructed her to save her strength."
At this moment, Yuan Yikaiâs aunt, Wang Xiaodan, stepped forward and took out the handkerchief from her pocket: "One would think you were the one giving birth, looking at all this sweat. Hurry and wipe it off."
Then she muttered under her breath: "At this rate, youâre trying to take credit away from our Lingzi."
This one remark eased Yuan Yikaiâs tension a bit.
Xinyan originally wanted to accompany into the delivery room, but Sun Zhenling absolutely refused.
She did indeed think about having her cousin accompany her, but a joke she heard while chatting with colleagues at work reminded her.
After all, her cousin hasnât given birth yet, firstly she might feel embarrassed, secondly, she might scare her cousin and make her unsympathetic about childbirth.
Han Jingchen and the others returned to find that their niece had already entered the delivery room, and hurriedly rushed to the delivery room area.
After inquiring about the situation, everyone waited outside the corridor.
At this moment, another pregnant woman was sent into the delivery room.
The husbandâs family saw so many people standing outside: "This delivery room is quite lively today, how many mothers are inside right now?"
He was somewhat worried that his wife wouldnât have space to give birth.
Upon hearing that there was only one mother inside and the crowd was all one family, he was filled with surprise: "Did your whole family come out for this? Looks like this birth is quite important to you all."
After speaking, though, he thought to himself: This whole family took time off to wait here, must be losing quite a bit of wages, really extravagant."
Just then, a scream of "Ah" came from inside the delivery room.
The sound startled him back to reality, urgently rushing to the delivery room door, shouting in: "Donât be scared, honey, Iâm outside."
Yuan Yikai looked at the man next to him, realizing this was an option, and called out without hesitation: "Lingzi, donât be afraid."
Just as he spoke, the sound of a babyâs cry came from inside the delivery room.
Yuan Yikai was full of excitement: "She gave birth, you all hear that, she gave birth."
The other man commented: "Bro, maybe itâs my wife who gave birth."
Yuan Yikai glanced at him: "My wife went in before yours."
The man peered through the crack in the door, trying to see inside: "That doesnât mean the one who goes in first gives birth first; my wife didnât take half an hour in the delivery room last time and birthed."
Yuan Yikai turned to Han Chun for help: "Mom."
Before Han Chunxue could answer, the delivery room doors opened: "Family of Sun Zhenling."
The entire family crowded around.
The nurse hadnât yet revealed the babyâs gender: "Nurse, howâs my daughter doing?"
"Nurse, howâs my wife?"
The two questions were spoken simultaneously.
The nurse laughed: "Donât worry, Deputy Director Shen is cleaning her up right now, if there are no issues, sheâll be out soon."
Xinyan stepped forward to ask: "Is my little nephew a boy or a girl?"
Everyone then realized the baby was still in the nurseâs arms.
The nurse handed the baby to the nearest Han Chunxue: "Mother and son are safe, the baby is six pounds and six ounces."
Han Chaohui quickly said: "Then letâs call him âLiu Liuâ as a nickname, itâs both auspicious and catchy."
Everyone was filled with joy, and there was no opposition to this nickname, so the little guy had his nickname as soon as he left the delivery room.
