Chapter 256 Giving birth
Chapter 256 Giving birth
Zhou Ning only allowed two midwives to stay in the room and drove everyone else out.
"Ahhh, it hurts so much, An Ning, it hurts so much."
Zhou Wan was pregnant with twins, so her life was naturally more difficult than that of other women.
Zhou Ning handed Zhou Wan a ginseng slice and said, "Sister, calm down. Follow my lead and take a deep breath. You're only two fingers dilated. It's still too early for birth."
"Ah?" Zhou Wan was instantly in despair. How could it be so early?
"Sister, if you want to eat something, I'll ask someone to make it for you. Or if Yuzu is here too, I'll ask her to make something for you."
When Zhou Wan heard this, she endured the pain and said, "Osmanthus cake, I want to eat osmanthus cake."
"it is good."
Soon, Zhou Ning brought a large plate of osmanthus cake and fed Zhou Wan while comforting her.
Ever since finding out that Zhou Wan was pregnant with twins, Zhou Ning has been paying attention to Zhou Wan's diet.
Don't eat too much, otherwise the fetus will become too big and delivery will be difficult.
You can't eat too little, otherwise you won't get enough nutrition.
It can be said that Zhou Ning was at least half worried about the birth of her two little nephews.
When Shen Zhong, Shen Shi and Liu Qingxiu arrived, Zhou Wan was giving birth and screaming in pain.
Shen Zhong's legs and feet went weak and he wanted to lie on the ground right there.
Fortunately, Shen You was smart and had prepared a chair in advance. She waited for the right moment to let Shen Zhong sit down.
"Yuzi, Awan will be fine, right?" Shen Zhong said tremblingly.
How could Shen You make any promises? But seeing how nervous her family was, she could only comfort them: "A Ning is in there."
Shen Zhong breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Aning was inside, so Awan could feel a little more at ease.
The people inside were anxious, and the people outside were also anxious.
I only heard a "wow" sound, and the midwife inside shouted: "This is out, it's a little boy."
"Where's the other one?"
"Ah, this, why isn't this crying?"
The midwife held the second child, her face filled with worry.
In fact, in this case, the child is not in good condition.
Zhou Ning didn't say anything and started tapping the soles of the child's feet, making the child cry.
"This one is crying too. Oh, it's a little girl. Oh, this is a son and a daughter."
The midwives held one baby each and went out to show the mother-in-law's family.
You can earn a lot of money from this kind of work.
Zhou Ning smiled and said to Zhou Wan: "Brother and sister, I have checked, the sister is a little weak, but it's nothing serious."
Zhou Wan felt very weak just now, but she was still worried when she heard that her daughter didn't cry, but now she is relieved.
Shen Zhong was the first to rush in, holding Zhou Wan's hand and saying, "Awan, thank you for your hard work. Our child is very cute."
Zhou Wan licked her lips and smiled, "Have you thought of their names?"
Shen Zhong nodded solemnly, pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from his sleeve, and said, "I have studied it repeatedly and consulted many colleagues, and they all think these two names are good."
The note read: "The girl should be named Shen Qing and the boy should be named Shen Yan, which means - the sea is clear and the river is peaceful, how do you think?"
Now that Shen Zhong is employed at the Hanlin Academy, the people around him are naturally well-educated.
Zhou Wan smiled and said, "I think that's great. I've even thought of nicknames for them. The son will be called Little Coke and the girl will be called Little Sprite."
When Zhou Wan said this, she also glanced at Zhou Ning.
Is that really what it’s called?
Zhou Ning coughed awkwardly twice and said, "Well, I'll go see Dad. You guys take a rest first."
After saying that, Zhou Ning left.
Indeed, please take some care of your father.
Here, Choi Ji-eun has recovered and is eating some liquid food.
Seeing Aning coming over, Choi Ji-eun opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
Zhou Ning said very naturally: "Sister gave birth to a brother and sister."
Cui Zhien had tears in his eyes, he became a grandfather.
Cui Wangmei also felt very emotional. She became a grandmother without even having any children.
In Cui Wangmei's eyes, she is the mistress of the family. Although A Ning and A Wan are not her children, according to etiquette, she is their mother.
"I'll go see Awan. I've prepared a longevity lock for the child, so it's a good time to send it to her." Cui Wangmei said to Cui Zhien.
Choi Ji-eun said thank you for your hard work.
Cui Wangmei smiled shyly and left.
Zhou Ning felt Cui Zhien's pulse and said, "Are you feeling well? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is there anything different from before?"
Cui Zhien paused and said, "Yes, I, I have recovered my memory, Ning, I remember your mother and your sister."
Zhou Ning nodded, without being overly surprised.
In fact, what’s the point whether Choi Ji-eun remembers A-niang or not?
But my sister will be much happier.
"When I left, you were still in your mother's belly. I, I saw what you looked like." Choi Ji-eun said guiltily.
Zhou Ning waved her hand: "It's okay, I don't mind."
Cui Zhien said to herself: "I remember your mother's appearance. She was very beautiful. You and your mother have similar eyes. Although she was a refugee at that time, without makeup and without any memory, she was still smart and intelligent. After washing, she was still a beauty. I remember that I once truly loved my mother."
Zhou Ning didn't know how to comment, but if A Niang were still here, this place would probably be a Shura field.
Looking at Choi Ji-eun's expression, it seems that she is still missing her mother.
It's no wonder. After all, they didn't break up because of a breakdown in their relationship, and there was also a lot of guilt mixed in.
People always have some filters for the dead.
"But I always feel that your mother doesn't love me."
"She loves my face, or more precisely, the mole at the corner of my eye."
What?
Zhou Ning unconsciously touched the mole at the corner of her eye. The red mole at the corner of her eye was inherited from Cui Zhien.
Cui Zhien sighed and said, "At that time, even if she had no memory, she would always stare at my mole and sometimes call me - Kechu."
Zhou Ning swallowed and wondered how to respond.
Parental love is so complicated.
Cui Zhien continued: "I didn't know before, but now I know everything. I know about your mother's...affection with Ke Chu. I also saw Ke Chu in the court. He also has such a red mole in the corner of his eye."
Alas, substitute literature.
If cigarettes existed in ancient times, Choi Ji-eun would probably be smoking them now.
How can I explain this? Su Mingxia has no memory and acts entirely on instinct.
Deep in her heart, she has always loved Ke Chu, but perhaps even she herself does not know who Ke Chu is.
Even if Su Mingxia wanted to look for Ke Chu, she was just a peasant woman at the time and was tied to the Zhou family, so she couldn't find him.
She was trapped in that village day after day, relying on her remaining instincts - recognizing herbs, knowing some medical skills, and remembering some customs.
Maybe when she wakes up in the middle of the night, she can get a glimpse of her past life in her vague memories.
But when she woke up from the dream, she was no longer the pampered eldest daughter of the Su family, but an ordinary woman who was worried about her children not having enough to eat.
