African Nationhood

Chapter 181 The Joy of Thousand Gold
  Prince Leopold's estate outside London.

Shi Jintang held Alice's hand and walked slowly through the manor filled with flowers and ornamental trees.

Since Shi Jintang helped His Royal Highness relieve his hemophilia, he has become more dependent on Shi Jintang and Nanhua Company's medicine.

Lawen Schneider has become a non-staff physician at Buckingham Palace, and he often travels among London's dignitaries.

Thanks to the pharmaceutical development of Nanhua Company and the nourishing effect of traditional Chinese medicine.

The nobles clearly felt their physical fitness improved after taking the medicine. For example, some male nobles were very fond of nourishing medicines such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills.

A small dose of aspirin can alleviate many sub-health conditions. If you encounter a "malignant" disease such as pneumonia, you only need to go to the medical school in Anhai Town to cure it.

Therefore, Nan Hua Medicine has gained quite a reputation among London's aristocratic circles.

In addition, Lucas Lao Ai has successfully achieved his strategic goal and became Queen Victoria's personal attendant.

Today, his status in Buckingham Palace is comparable to that of Prince Leopold.

His cooking and health care skills won him a lot of points with the Queen, and Queen Victoria became increasingly inseparable from him.

Shi Jintang expressed satisfaction with Lucas's development and secretly instructed him to just ensure that Her Majesty the Queen is kind to Nanhua Company, and there are no other requirements.

Lucas is satisfied with his current life and expresses his gratitude to Mr. Shi for "creating a new life".

He said that he would not forget his original intention and would successfully complete the tasks entrusted by Mr. Shi.

Shi Jintang doesn't care about such a promise. He is still in a critical period of development and therefore needs a good external environment.

When he matures, it won't matter whether he has the Queen's goodwill or not. At this stage, staying stable is the best result.

……

"Are you tired? If you are, let's rest for a while before leaving?"

Shi Jintang looked at Alice tenderly. Now her face and legs were swollen, and her overall appearance was compromised.

But it did not reduce her weight in Shi Jintang's heart at all, because her belly was pregnant with Shi Jintang's most intimate soul contract in the world.

He has pity and gratitude for Alice, but he lacks love the most. Alice is just a tool in his plan.

So he can leave Alice in Europe without asking anything at will, and only come over to have a good time when he remembers her.

But since he has a child, he is willing to spread his limited love on Alice.

Alice regarded Shi Jintang's thoughtfulness as a gift, and was moved and happy.

"I'm not tired. I want to walk again. I'll feel at ease when I'm with you."

Shi Jintang smiled and reached out to brush the hair in front of her forehead, "Then let's go for a walk."

"Have you thought about the name of the child? I have thought about it but I don't know if you are satisfied with it?"

"Well, I also thought of two names. One is for my daughter and my son. Which one do you want to hear?"

The smile on Alice's face became more obvious, "Let's talk about my daughter first. I heard that my daughter will be more like my father, so I want to hear my daughter's name first."

Shi Jintang turned around and scratched her white nose.

“My daughter will be like you, maybe she will be like you.

He has a pair of blue eyes, red hair, and a straight nose. Only his teeth and lips are like mine.

Do you think she would be the most beautiful girl in the world? "

Alice couldn't help but fantasize when she heard this, but she quickly reacted, "No, she has to have black eyes and hair like you, and a nose and chest like mine. Then she will be the most beautiful in the world." Girl."

Hearing what Alice said, Shi Jintang couldn't help but use his imagination, a busty mixed-race girl with black hair and black eyes.

"Well, you're right, she is indeed a beauty like that."

After hearing this, Alice thought her idea was quite beautiful, and then she patted Shi Jintang's hand and asked, "What's her name?"

Shi Jintang smiled and asked, "Tell me first, what name did you give her?" Alice pursed her lips and asked tentatively: "What do you think of sunshine?"

"Sang Xia'er, sunshine?
  Why not Angel? Don’t you Europeans and Americans all like angels? "

Alice lowered her head in embarrassment, "You don't like it? You can also call her Angel."

Shi Jintang gently touched Alice's cheek and said with a smile: "Sang Xiaer, it's very good, I like it very much.

Your idea is similar to mine. The Chinese name I chose for her is one word, called "Xi".

It also means sunshine, but more often it refers to the morning sun. She will be the light that illuminates my life! "

Hearing what Shi Jintang said, Alice felt a little sad.

What exactly is in this man's heart, and why does he compare his daughter's name to the light that breaks away the darkness in his heart?
  Shi Jintang noticed the tears in Alice's eyes, and he asked anxiously: "Do you have a stomachache, or are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Alice had no words, she just pulled her beloved man down to her, stood on tiptoes and pressed a kiss on his forehead, "I love you, my savior, and I hope our child can soothe your heart."

After hearing what Alice said, Shi Jintang was so moved that he couldn't help but hug her tightly, lowered his head and kissed her red lips.

But before touching Alice, she noticed that Alice's body began to tremble, and her face showed a look of pain.

"Honey, I, I think I'm going to give birth!"

Shi Jintang panicked. This was the first time in his two lives that he had encountered this situation.

"Don't be anxious, don't be afraid, I will carry you back."

After saying that, Shi Jintang picked up Alice across the waist and shouted as he walked: "Schneider, Lu Yi, Xia Wan, come here quickly, Madam is about to give birth!"

Shi Jintang's shout alarmed the people in the manor.

The well-trained Lu Yi, Xia Wan and the ten medical students who came with the ship all got into the mood one after another.

They had made all preparations long ago, just waiting for Alice to give birth, and now all the preparations were in vain.

When Alice entered the preset operating room in the manor, the female doctors from Nanhua Medical College were already in place one after another, with Dr. Schneider serving as an off-site guide.

Then came the anxious waiting. Shi Jintang's mood was like a dead leaf floating on the top of the clouds. He was filled with emptiness, fear and helplessness, without any sense of security.

He thought of the ridiculously high number of cases of dystocia in this era and the horrific infant mortality rate, and he became even more panicked.

Alice's cries in the operating room were more like a sharp knife piercing his heart, one after another, leaving him in unbearable pain and unable to resist...

Time seemed to have stopped. Shi Jintang had never been so eager for time to pass quickly in his life. He walked around the operating room impatiently.

Dr. Schneider had to hold him back and hand him a cigarette.

"Smoke, boss, it will relieve your tension."

Shi Jintang stuffed the cigarette into his mouth as if he had found a treasure. After Dr. Schneider helped him light it, he swallowed the smoke greedily and violently, and then he felt a stinging pain in his throat as if it were being burned.

He couldn't help but cough, but the pungency of nicotine and tar relieved his irritability and calmed him down a lot.

His steps slowly slowed down, but there were more and more cigarette butts under his feet, and he soon accumulated a pile.

Shi Ming sent a new cigarette case very wisely, and everyone was quietly waiting for the turn of events to come.

An hour passed, an hour and a half, "Wow~~~~"

A loud baby cry broke the tranquility outside the operating room!
  Shi Jintang's face showed joy and excitement. He suddenly pushed open the door of the operating room and rushed into the operating room. Then he saw Xia Wan with a tired face holding a ball of red and white soft objects and was treating it. Wear it and wipe the blood on your body.

She looked at Shi Jintang, who was full of surprises, and couldn't help but laugh: "Congratulations, Sir, Madam has given birth to a daughter of yours!"
