Chapter 2239: Difficult Labor (Part 1)

Yang Ruxin smiled, so the man she set her sights on must be the best.

"Zhe’er, stop making trouble." At this moment Shu Niushi also walked over, "You won’t be of any help if you go inside, wait by the side instead." she said.

"Mother?" Shu Zhe frowned.

"Women go through Ghost Gate when giving birth." Madam Shu Lishi also came over, "Zhe’er, even if you go inside, it won’t help much, and it might even pressure Jiarong, making her uncomfortable." She paused, "Besides, childbirth isn’t that quick."

The midwife nearby also nodded, "The cervix has just opened three fingers wide, there’s still a wait ahead."

"Master, you and second brother help father back to rest." Madam Shu Lishi glanced at Shu Tongzhi, "It’s still early, there’s no need for everyone to wait here. I’ll stay with my sister-in-law, and if there’s any news I’ll send someone to notify you immediately." The father-in-law is getting old, if he exhausts himself it wouldn’t be good.

"That’s fine." Shu Tongzhi nodded, and then he and Shu Jingzhi together supported Shu Xing to go back.

Shu Xing, although very worried about his granddaughter-in-law’s safety, knew his own health, so he wasn’t stubborn and compliantly followed his sons back.

"You all should go back for now too." Madam Shu Lishi also sent the others back to rest, "There’s no need for so many people to stay here and wait."

"Mother, I’ll stay, you and second aunt..."

"You still have Yangyang to take care of, go rest. It’s just one night, it’ll be alright when the child is born." Madam Shu Lishi also refused Ning Xi’s decision to stay, "Hurry back, Yangyang is already sleepy."

"Auntie, second aunt, although there’s a female doctor here, I’m also a doctor. I’ll stay in case there’s any situation where I can offer help, right?" Yang Ruxin smiled.

Everyone thought it made sense as well, so they accepted it, but still had people tidy up the nearby room for them to rest for now.

The cries from Tian Jiarong grew louder, making it hard for anyone to sleep, they could only lie in bed and doze to regain energy.

After an unknown amount of time, someone suddenly called her from outside.

"What’s wrong?" Yang Ruxin foggily opened her eyes.

"It seems like there’s a problem in childbirth." Gu Qingheng had already brought over her coat, "Both the female doctor and the midwife are at their wits’ end."

Yang Ruxin startled awake, threw on her coat, and went out the door, seeing a midwife standing there with blood-covered hands, looking troubled: "The fetus’s position hasn’t corrected, if this continues, it’s going to be dangerous..." She originally wanted to say whether to save the mother or child but ultimately didn’t dare, it felt too ominous.

"Xinxin, how’s Jiarong..." Shu Niushi’s eyes were already red.

"The second young madam’s situation is special this time, the baby’s feet are coming out first, also, it seems like the umbilical cord has wrapped around the neck, in this situation... I’m helpless too." The female doctor also looked panicked and ashamed.

"Cousin-in-law, I’m begging you." Shu Zhe looked at Yang Ruxin with reddened eyes, "I know you’re the little Divine Doctor, surely you have a way, right? Please save my wife and child..."

Shu Jingzhi, however, glared at his son: "This depends on Jiarong and the child’s fortune, who can say for sure?"

"I know, I’m a bit too anxious." Shu Zhe realized he might have spoken overly assertively, couldn’t help tearing at his hair, "I don’t mean to force you, it’s just that I’m too worried. If I could, I’d rather suffer in her place..."
