"Qingqing..." Yang Ming took out his phone, saw that it was Wei Qingqing's number, and immediately answered.

"Husband, hurry home, Aunt Liu is about to give birth..." Wei Qingqing's voice was urgent.

"What???" Yang Ming was shocked. "You mean..." But then, thinking that Liu Shugen and Liu Nannan were right next to him, Yang Ming swallowed the rest of his words.

"Sister Liu's water has broken, you need to come back quickly..." Wei Qingqing said.

"Right away, right away..." Yang Ming quickly hung up the phone and said to the others, "Something happened at home, I have to go back right away..." Before they could say anything, he had already run off quickly.

"Brother Yang, has something happened to Sister Yang? I'll go with you..." Liu Nannan had never seen Yang Ming so anxious before, so she quickly followed after him.

"Don't follow me. It's not your sister-in-law Yang, and it's not a bad thing. You should hurry up and prepare the banquet. As the top scorer in the college entrance examination, you have to treat everyone..." Yang Ming's voice drifted over from afar.

"Huff..." Liu Nannan ran a few steps, but seeing that she couldn't catch up with Yang Ming, she could only stop panting heavily.

Yang Ming quickly returned home. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Wei Qingqing standing at the door, pacing anxiously.

"You're finally back! Aunt Liu has been in labor for three hours and still hasn't given birth. It seems like she's having a difficult labor..." Wei Qingqing saw Yang Ming and immediately came over, grabbed his hand, and hurriedly walked towards the back garden.

"Difficult labor???" Yang Ming's face darkened. The skills mastered by the all-around girls on Weijia Star definitely included childbirth.

"It's not their problem, it's that child, he's just too big..." Wei Qingqing and Yang Ming were of one mind; she could tell what Yang Ming was thinking from any slight change in tone or expression.

"How is it now?" Yang Ming asked.

"I heard it was excruciating pain, and my parents were all outside watching over me..." Wei Qingqing said.

"These brats, they really have no backbone. They make a fuss over the slightest thing..." Yang Ming said angrily.

Mrs. Liu originally planned to give birth secretly and hadn't appeared in public for quite some time. After giving birth, she could decide for herself whether to announce the child's birth or when to announce it based on various factors. Little did she expect that everything would be exposed at once.

"It wasn't them who notified us. When Aunt Liu was having a difficult childbirth, Mom and Dad happened to come home, and they heard Aunt Liu's screams..." Wei Qingqing said.

"That's more like it..." Yang Ming's expression finally improved.

As the two were talking, they arrived at the World Tree. Yang Ming had an idea, and a portal of light appeared in front of them. Without hesitation, the two of them passed through it hand in hand.

Weijia Star has been developed into a tourist planet, and Weijia Town is the only city on this planet.

Emerging from the World Tree, one is immediately greeted by Zhang Shufang, dressed in a magnificent milky-white Hanfu, standing before the tree with a gloomy expression.

"Mom..." Yang Ming was startled by his mother's expression and felt uneasy.

"Good son, you are truly my good son..." Zhang Shufang's voice was so cold it seemed to drip ice. After saying that, she ignored Yang Ming, stepped forward, and helped Wei Qingqing walk towards the courtyard where Liu Sao had given birth.

"Mom, it's not Yang Ming's fault, it's all my fault..." Wei Qingqing knew why her mother-in-law's face was so gloomy, so she quickly explained in a low voice.

"Phew..." Zhang Shufang's eyes welled up with tears. She patted Wei Qingqing's little hand. "Our Yang family is so sorry..."

"Mom, that's not how it is..." Wei Qingqing said with a face full of shame, "Sister Liu is pregnant, and the responsibility really lies with me..." As she spoke, she quietly and concisely explained the whole story.

"Oh, this is something..." Zhang Shufang suddenly realized, and her expression wasn't so bad anymore.

"Yes, to be honest, this is all my fault. I was too careless and slept too soundly, which gave Aunt Liu an opportunity to take advantage of me..." Wei Qingqing scratched her head awkwardly. She had already caught this habit from Yang Ming.

"Don't say that. This kind of thing can't be prevented. Those things are tiny and there are a lot of them. No one would expect someone to steal them..." Zhang Shufang was just blaming her son for being a womanizer and daring to get Liu Sao pregnant, but now that she heard that the matter had little to do with her son, her thoughts changed. After all, the baby in Liu Sao's belly was her own grandson.

"I'll be content as long as Mom doesn't blame me for letting our Yang family's offspring be leaked..." Wei Qingqing said obediently.

"Hehe..." Zhang Shufang chuckled, turning to look at her son who was following behind her, "Why don't you hurry up and go check on Aunt Liu? What are you standing there for..."

"Oh, oh, oh, oh..." Yang Ming quickly responded and ran towards the house where Liu Sao had given birth.

The house where Aunt Liu lived was the same house where they first moved in, and it was also the first house in Weijia Town. She also gave birth here.

Liu Sao gave birth in the third courtyard, which was already crowded with people. Yang Zhengfang, Wei Jianguo, Xue Hua, Zhang Yingning, Aunt Pang, Sun Haichao, Feng Lin, Zhao Fen, Zhang Yang, Sun Fangfang, Zhao Dongge, Xu Haixia, Zheng Dongfang, Xiao Tiantian, Zhang Jianhui, Zhu Yun, Zhang Fenghuang, Liu Lili, Zhang Yue, Zhu Jinghua, Wang Zhengzhi, Lu Huifen, Wang Yufang, Li Xuefei, Zhuo Mengfei, and Grandpa Huang, among others, were all dressed in various gorgeous Hanfu and waited quietly outside. Their expressions varied: some were embarrassed, some were gloomy, some were disdainful, some were admiring, some were gloomy, and some were incredulous.

"Everyone's here..." Yang Ming ran into the courtyard, immediately attracting everyone's attention, and couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

"Hmph..." Xue Hua snorted coldly and turned her head away. To be honest, as a mother, she couldn't be happy about her daughter's marriage being interfered with by a third party.

Xue Hua let out a cold snort, which immediately made Yang Zhengfang even more embarrassed.

"Why is there no sound?" Yang Ming frowned as he stared at the wooden door.

"Um..." Wang Yufang was the most considerate one; she glanced at everyone and whispered, "I heard she fainted from the pain..."

"I'll go in and take a look..." Yang Ming said, taking three steps at a time and rushing into the house.

"Hmph..." Xue Hua was even more displeased to see Yang Ming so nervous.

"Hehehe..." Not long after Yang Ming went in, Wei Qingqing chuckled and walked in with Zhang Shufang. "Everyone's here???"

"You brat, how dare you laugh..." Xue Hua looked at his daughter's heartless appearance and immediately scolded her angrily.

"What did I do wrong???" Wei Qingqing's little face immediately filled with grievance.

Everyone who saw Wei Qingqing's expression felt a sense of awe and reverence for Yang Ming. This man looked unassuming, but his methods were incredibly skillful.

"What do you mean, 'what's wrong'...?" Xue Hua glared at him, "You heartless brat..."

"Don't say that, watch your manners..." Wei Jianguo said in a low voice.

"Hehehe..." Wei Jianguo's words made Yang Zhengfang even more embarrassed. "Mind your manners?" That meant his son had no manners? Of course, playing such a fashionable game as cheating—what kind of manners could someone like that have?

"Hey..." Zhang Shufang chuckled, "The two kids told me what happened. This child really is a descendant of the Yang family..."

"Yo yo yo..." Seeing Zhang Shufang's excited expression, Xue Hua's tone became somewhat sarcastic, "Some people are really quite sentimental..."

"Mom..." Wei Qingqing blushed slightly, "This matter, to be honest, isn't Yang Ming's fault, it's my fault..."

"It's said that a woman should follow her husband after marriage, but you shouldn't take on everything yourself..." Wei Jianguo's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"Sister Liu's child was conceived through artificial insemination at the hospital, and it was..." Wei Qingqing blushed at this point, "......the sperm came from me..."

"Pfft..." Several people burst out laughing as soon as Wei Qingqing said that.

"Cough cough cough cough..." Xue Hua was about to scold his daughter, but his daughter's words choked him, and his saliva flowed back into his throat, blocking his trachea, causing him to cough violently.

"Mom, are you alright?" Wei Qingqing stepped forward to pat her mother's back and help her catch her breath.

"It's alright, it's alright..." Xue Hua caught her breath, her face still filled with disbelief as she stared at her daughter. "What you said, is it all true???"

All eyes turned to Wei Qingqing.

"We're all family here, there's no harm in saying it..." So, Wei Qingqing recounted the whole story, "...Logically speaking, this child should be mine, and should take our family name..."

"If that's really the case, then it's not Yang Ming's fault at all..." Xue Hua's anger subsided without her realizing it. "Let the child have the surname Wei, then let it have the surname Wei..."

"I think we should leave it at that. Let's not delve too deeply into this matter. Let's reluctantly give the child the surname Wei..." Wei Jianguo seemed quite pleased.

"What do you mean we won't delve deeper??? We've already dug into the root of the problem and gotten to the bottom of it..." Yang Zhengfang protested. "And you're still forcing it??? This child, after all, is a descendant of the Yang family. He has absolutely no blood relation to your Wei family. If you want a child, you might as well adopt one from an orphanage..."

"You bet..." Zhang Shufang clapped her hands, "If you put it that way, there's really not much difference between them and those adopted from an orphanage..." Of course, she couldn't bear to give her precious grandson away to someone else...

"The child's biological mother has said that she agrees to the child taking the surname Wei..." Xue Hua said.

"But the child's mother prefers the child to have the surname Yang..." Zhang Shufang refused to budge.

"I won't talk to you, I'm going inside to take a look..." Xue Hua gathered his sleeves and quickly went into the house.

"I'll go in and take a look too..." Zhang Shufang said, not wanting to be left behind, and followed her into the house.

The two women turned through the front hall and entered the inner room. They were greeted by a strong smell of blood. Liu Sao was lying on the bed, her face deathly pale. Her clothes had long been stripped off, and she was covered in sweat. The sheets were stained with blood. Yang Ming was squatting by the bed, holding her hand tightly, his face full of anxiety. Several girls stood by the bed with panicked expressions.

"How is it???" Zhang Shufang disregarded the filth, climbed onto the bed, and checked the situation. It is said that anyone who has given birth can act as a half-midwife.

"It's nothing, I just fainted from exhaustion. The baby is just too big, at least ten pounds..." A girl covered in blood said, her eyes filled with panic.

"We have to get the baby out right away, or he'll suffocate..." Xue Hua climbed onto the bed, glanced at the baby, and said.

"How about a C-section?" Zhang Shufang said.

"No need..." Xue Hua shook her head, "I can have a natural birth..." She then instructed the girl beside her, "Hot water, go get some hot water..."

"Yes..." The girls were overjoyed and immediately ran out to prepare hot water.

"Get out! What are you doing inside watching over a woman giving birth?!" Zhang Shufang glanced at her son beside her and saw him holding Liu Sao's hand, only knowing how to be anxious. She immediately scolded him.

"Let him stay inside..." Xue Hua waved her hand. "Let him see how difficult it is for women, so he won't think he's so great and start flirting with other women all the time..."

To be honest, Yang Ming wasn't just daydreaming. He was making a difficult decision: whether to take Liu Sao into the farm space. Once inside, he could easily remove the child from her womb using the farm's spatial power. However, the downsides of taking her into the farm space were also obvious. So, for a moment, he couldn't make up his mind.

Zhang Shufang and Xue Hua's half-baked experience was really impressive. After waking up Liu Sao, they got the baby out in just half an hour. Amidst the baby's loud cries, they picked up scissors, cut the umbilical cord, and cleaned the baby's body.

"Amazing..." Several girls were stunned. They had spent three hours trying to deliver the baby, but the expert did it in no time. And this expert was only a half-baked one.

"Let me see..." Aunt Liu was so weak that she could barely open her eyes.

"What are you looking at? You should rest..." Yang Ming held Liu Sao's hand and pulled a blanket over her.

"I want to see..." Aunt Liu pleaded, her eyes filled with an apology, "Just one look..."

"Don't make it sound like a life-or-death situation..." Yang Ming smiled, pinched her cheek, took out a bag of milk, and poured it into her stomach.

"Ugh..." Aunt Liu's eyes closed, and she murmured, "I just feel like I'm going to die... You're so cruel. I'm about to die, and you won't even let me see my son one last time..." As she spoke, she fell into a deep sleep.

"Son, you're a grown man, you have to be responsible. You stay here with Aunt Liu..." Zhang Shufang held her grandson, her smile stretching from ear to ear.

"Come here, let me hold you..." Xue Hua leaned in, wanting to take the child.

"It's all blood, it's made your clothes dirty..." Zhang Shufang said, stepping aside to block Xue Hua's hand.

"Your clothes are white, and mine are red..." Xue Hua was naturally not going to stand for it and was about to rob it.

"Take her out and let Aunt Liu rest properly..." Yang Ming said, feeling a headache coming on as he saw the two of them looking like they were about to fight.

"Okay, okay, we'll take her out..." Zhang Shufang said, and ran out with the child in her arms.

"You're utterly shameless..." Xue Hua gritted her teeth in anger, stomped her foot, and chased after him.

"Phew..." Yang Ming let out a long breath, glancing at the girls standing in the corner. "Clean up the room, wipe all the bloodstains clean..."

"Yes..." The girls quickly responded and began looking for tools to tidy up the house.

"You've suffered..." Yang Ming brushed the stray hairs from Liu Sao's forehead behind her ear and gently stroked her burning forehead. Now, the effects of the gene repair drug had begun to take hold.

"Oh my goodness, isn't this child a bit too big???" Zhang Shufang had just come out carrying the child when Wei Jianguo, quick as a flash, rushed forward before Zhang Shufang could react, took the child from her, and held him in his arms, laughing heartily.

"I'm telling you, you're a grown man who's never held a baby before..." Zhang Shufang said anxiously, and immediately tried to snatch the baby away.

"Who said I've never held a child???" Wei Jianguo glared. "I held Qingqing when she was little, and look how beautiful she is now! It's all thanks to me..."

"Old Wei, well done..." Xue Hua stepped out the door and saw her child in her husband's arms. She immediately smiled broadly and gave her husband a thumbs up, praising him sincerely.

"Qingqing, you are a good child..." Yang Zhengfang said, pointing at Wei Jianguo with his chin, the meaning was clear, he wanted to take the child over.

"Um..." Torn between her in-laws and her own parents, Wei Qingqing was immediately at a loss. "I...I'll go check on Aunt Liu..." she said, and went straight into the house.

Can't we just not help each other?

"Hand over the child..." Yang Zhengfang stood in front of Wei Jianguo, his eyes wide open, and said with great force.

"On what grounds???" Wei Jianguo glared, his eyes no smaller than Yang Zhengfang's, and as he spoke, he hugged the child tightly in his arms.

"On what grounds??? On what grounds..." Yang Zhengfang glared and directly reached out to snatch it.

"What are you two doing??? You've hurt my grandson, I'll smash you both to death with a brick..." Zhang Shufang was furious when she saw that these two old geezers were actually going to use force, and she pointed at their noses and started cursing.

"The baby is so delicate, it was just born..." Xue Hua was terrified, afraid that the two of them would get rough and hurt the baby.

"Aren't you all getting a little too excited?" Sun Fangfang jumped in. "What the child's surname is, that's up to Aunt Liu. Maybe she'll even let the child take the Liu surname..."

"Go away..." The four of them shouted in unison. As Sun Fangfang's godmother, Zhang Shufang was even more impolite, putting her hands on her hips and saying, "Shut your mouth, no one will think you're mute if you don't speak..."

"Hehe..." Sun Fangfang laughed awkwardly and immediately hid behind Zhang Yang.

"Honey, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and tell the kitchen to make chicken soup for Aunt Liu..." Wei Jianguo glared at Xue Hua and said.

"Yes, yes, yes..." Xue Hua quickly responded and ran towards the kitchen.

"Old woman, Sister Liu is not well. Go inside and keep an eye on her. If she wants anything, be diligent in helping her..." Yang Zhengfang said.

"Okay, okay..." Zhang Shufang hurriedly agreed and turned to go inside.

The entire courtyard stared at this scene, all looking on in disbelief. Wasn't this a bit too exaggerated?

"So much blood! I'm scared..." Wei Qingqing entered the room and saw several girls washing rags in a basin. The water in the basin was bright red, which immediately frightened her. She clung to Yang Ming's arm, trembling. "Will I bleed this much when I give birth???"
