Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 400 Labor pains, birth of the eldest daughter (2)
Even Pei Yan would sit up suddenly in the middle of the night and ask her, "Is it labor pains? Is it going to be a labor?" Ji Chonglian couldn't laugh or cry, so she had to calm him down while letting him lie down and sleep for a while .

Everyone's nervousness didn't affect Ji Chonglian. She still ate and slept as she wanted, but she didn't dare to take a walk in the garden when the weather got colder, but she still had to walk around the house every day.

On the third day of December, as if with a premonition, Ji Chonglian specially took a fragrant plum blossom bath to make her whole body refreshed and comfortable, and changed into clean clothes before lying down on the bed and sleeping peacefully.

As soon as the sound of the midnight clock rang outside the wall, Ji Chonglian felt as if a hot current gushed out from under her body. She turned to look at her husband beside her. Pei Yan was soundly asleep, so she agreed to pat She patted his arm and called softly: "A Yan, I may be about to give birth!"

"Ok?"

Pei Yan was a little dazed, before he could react, he turned sideways again, and asked in a daze, "What did you say?"

Ji Chonglian took a deep breath, and said word by word: "I think, I'm going to give birth!"

Another hot stream gushed out from under her body, Ji Chonglian didn't dare to move at all, and she didn't have any experience in childbirth, she was afraid that the amniotic fluid would flow when she sat up, and if the amniotic fluid would run dry before the baby landed, then Not to suffocate.

Pei Yan heard it clearly now, and suddenly lost all sleepiness, turned around in a jerk, turned her head to comfort Ji Chonglian, "Don't panic, I'll call someone right away, Mrs. Wen is already living at home, and I'll be here soon ,You wait……"

Said that she didn't even care about her shoes, put on a cloak and ran out the door, Ji Chonglian couldn't help laughing, who is in a hurry, she is still very calm now.

After a while, Liang Fen and Liu Li rushed over, all the lamps in the room were lit, illuminating the whole room brightly, like quicksilver leaking to the ground.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Liuli also lost her mind, so she just turned her head and told Yinghong, "Quickly, go to the back alley and tell Sister Caiqiu, and Sister Lin Tao and her sister-in-law are also called over."

After all, Caiqiu and Lin Tao are married women, so they know more than these little girls. Besides, Lin Tao's sister-in-law, Bi Yuan, has given birth to a child, so she is more experienced.

Yinghong responded and ran out, Huanzi also looked at Ji Chonglian anxiously, "Madam, do you want to invite Miss Guiying?"

Ji Chonglian shook her head, frowned and said: "Don't bother them, there are still a few children here, let them have a good rest."

"Yes."

Huanzi responded in a panic, and the maidservants stood in front of Ji Chonglian, feeling a little confused, but Liuli calmed down a little.

Pei Yan quickly ran over with Mrs. Wen, who turned out to be the one he went looking for in person.

Ji Chonglian turned her head to look at his bare feet on the bluestone bricks, they were already red from the cold, and a layer of tears appeared in her eyes, she hurriedly ordered to Liuli: "Go and bring a basin of hot water, here we go!" My lord, soak his feet well, and let the kitchen cook a bowl of brown sugar ginger soup for him to keep out the cold!"

Liu Li went away in response, and Wen Po said to Pei Yan: "My lord, you should stay outside, this woman is the most filthy in giving birth, so as not to bump into your noble body!"

Pei Yan nodded, but when she turned around, she squatted in front of Ji Chonglian's bed, wiped away the tears on her cheeks with her thumb, and said softly: "Lian'er, don't be afraid, I'll just stay outside, what can you do?" Just call me!"

The corners of Ji Chonglian's lips slowly pulled up, and she said with a smile: "I'll be fine, put your shoes on quickly, such a grown man is still so frizzy, be careful of freezing your feet!"

Pei Yan grinned, rubbed her forehead hair affectionately, planted a kiss on her smooth forehead, and then backed out.

Liang Fen and Huanzi blushed a long time ago, lowered their eyes and pretended not to see anything, but the steady lady was generous, and still smiled and complimented Ji Chonglian, "I have never seen any adult treat his wife like that." So good, my wife is really blessed!"

Ji Chonglian smiled, and said: "If you want to prepare something, just let mom tell them to do it."

"Everything is ready-made, and there is nothing missing. Let the old woman see how much the wife's cervix is ​​opened."

After speaking, Wen Po lowered her head and probed under Ji Chonglian for a while, then she raised her head and said with a smile: "The mouth of the palace has only opened a finger, it's still early, if you want to wait for the child to be born, I'm afraid at least you can wait for it." It will take two hours."

"However, hot water must be prepared in the kitchen at all times, and then please ask Miss Liang Fen to go to the old woman's room to bring the blue cloth bag in the corner of the Kang, and Miss Huanzi will go to the kitchen to give instructions, and then cook a hot bowl for the wife. Here comes the chicken noodle soup.”

Wen Po moved into Pei's mansion a month in advance, and she became familiar with the maid in front of Ji Chonglian, but after listening to Wen Po's order, the two maids still turned their eyes to Ji Chonglian, waiting for her to show her.

"Go ahead and do what Mommy tells you to do!"

Ji Chonglian nodded, watching others bustling around for a while, she didn't feel anything at first, but now she calmed down, and felt her stomach throbbing.

Wen Po stood aside, looked at Ji Chonglian's frown, and followed her heart, "Don't be afraid, madam, the pain is right, it's the contraction of the uterine cervix, and the opening will widen as soon as it contracts. Only then can the child come out."

"it hurts!"

Ji Chonglian gritted her teeth, her forehead was covered with sweat from the pain. Of course she knew the theory of the contractions, but it was the first time she actually felt them. First, the contractions were not regular for a while, and the duration was not long. The pain was so painful that she wanted to bite her tongue.

Wen Po was still on the sidelines to cheer her up, "My wife should save some effort, it will be even more painful to have a baby later, I have to smooth this heart out by myself, and it will get better slowly..."

Liuli had already brought hot water to soak Pei Yan's feet, and he couldn't sit still when he heard Ji Chonglian's painful groans in the inner room, so Liuli could only persuade him from the side: "My lord, don't worry, there is a steady woman here, madam It's going to be all right."

How could Pei Yan listen to these words, but fortunately Caiqiu and Biyuan arrived in time, he hurriedly said to Biyuan: "Go in and see how your wife is, come out and call me back!"

Bi Yuan smiled, "Don't worry, my lord, it's always painful for a woman to give birth, so don't be in a hurry!" Even so, several women saluted Pei Yan and entered the inner room one after another.

Seeing a familiar face, Ji Chonglian felt a lot more at ease, Bi Yuan stepped forward and held her hand tightly, comforting her: "Madam, don't be afraid, this servant is with you, if you feel hurt, just squeeze the hand of this servant hard. Yes, the servant girl has thick flesh and is not afraid of pain!"

Caiqiu and Lin Tao laughed when they heard it.

Caiqiu glanced at the little maids, and said to Liuli: "There are not so many people here, you and Huanzi go down to rest, and come tomorrow morning to replace Liang Fen and Yinghong, don't stay here together, tomorrow I will serve my wife Instead, he lost his spirit.”

Liuli and Huanzi looked at each other, then bowed their knees to Ji Chonglian, and then said to Caiqiu: "I'm sorry to trouble you, sisters!"

After Liuli and Huanzi left, Caiqiu sent Liang Fen and Yinghong out to wait on Pei Yan. Ji Chonglian took advantage of the pain and said, "Bring a big woolen coat to your lord, and light the brazier in the outhouse." Come on, don't be cold!"

Bi Yuan jokingly said, "Oh, Ma'am, you have to take care of the big and the small!"

Ji Chonglian was already so weak from the pain that she just gave Biyuan a blank look and didn't even scold her.

Brown sugar ginger soup was boiled in the kitchen, and two large bowls of shredded chicken noodles were cooked. Pei Yan used one bowl and brought the other bowl to Ji Chonglian. A large pillow was placed behind her, and then she waited for her to eat bite by bite.

Ji Chonglian's appetite was surprisingly good at the moment, she ate up a bowl of chicken noodle soup, and there was not even soup left.

Bi Yuan watched from the side and laughed, "Madam must have lost strength from the pain just now, and now I just need to make up for it, and I will have more strength when I have a baby."

"That's it."

Granny Wen agreed, turned her head and unwrapped her blue cloth and floral bag, sterilized the things used in production one by one, and placed them on the long desk.

Biyuan and the others accompanied Ji Chonglian to chat from time to time, although the labor pains still came in waves, but it was probably much better if someone distracted them.

Wen Po came to check the opening of Ji Chonglian's palace mouth in about half an hour, and at the end of Yinshi, she began to deliver the baby formally.

Hearing a loud scream in the inner room, Pei Yan's brows were almost twisted into a rope. He walked back and forth in the room anxiously. If Lin Tao didn't come out every quarter of an hour to report that he was safe, maybe He was about to rush into the delivery room.

At a moment's notice, a baby's cry suddenly resounded, like clouds at dawn, instantly dispelling the uncertain haze in Pei Yan's eyes, leaving only a brilliant glow!

Before a few maids could stop her, Pei Yan strode into the inner room.

Wen Po had already scrubbed the child neatly, applied ointment on the umbilical cord and sealed it with gauze, then wrapped it in a thick padded jacket and carried her to Pei Yan, smiling, "Congratulations, my lord, on the daughter!"

Pei Yan glanced at the child, only to feel that her little face was so red that she couldn't tell who she looked like at all, but a pair of eyes miraculously increased in size, and the bright black pupils seemed to be looking at him.

In an instant, Pei Yan felt a warm current of excitement gushing out of his heart, rushing straight to the tip of his nose, and a sour feeling rippled in his chest.

But Ji Chonglian called weakly from the side, "Bring the child to me to see!"

Only then did Pei Yan take over the baby's baby, and both father and daughter came together to Ji Chonglian, looking at her face covered in sweat, with strands of long hair sticking to her cheeks, she couldn't help but feel distressed and said: "Lian'er , you have suffered!"

Ji Chonglian shook her head, and turned her eyes to Pei Yan's arms. The little baby's facial features have not yet opened, and it looks very small and delicate.

Ji Chonglian rubbed her head against the swaddle, tears welled up in her eyes, and murmured: "My daughter... my... daughter..."
