After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Chapter 262: Giving Birth in a Carriage

Shen Nanzhi came back quickly. The strange sled made everyone curious, but now was not the time to ask about this. The lady's screams of pain were heartbreaking.

"What's going on here?"

Shen Changan said, "I'm about to give birth. It's freezing and snowy. Where can I find a midwife? What should I do?"

Shen Nanzhi was also very worried. After all, it was a human life. If things went wrong, it would be two lives!

"What should we do? Hurry up and light a fire, heat some hot water, get the person into the carriage and turn it into a delivery room. We can't just let the baby give birth like this, right?"

Shen Nanzhi ordered everyone to do things. Aunt Liu suppressed her panic and discussed with Shen Nanzhi: "I wonder if we can find a midwife? Madam is still two months away from giving birth. This is a premature birth. What if something goes wrong?"

Shen Nanzhi couldn't blame them now. She ran back and forth even though she knew she was pregnant. What's the point of worrying now that something happened?

Thinking that they might have some unavoidable reasons, he softened his tone and said, "We didn't see the village when we came here, and it's too late to find a midwife. Let's just leave it to fate and do our best.

But I heard from someone that if the baby survives for seven or eight months, it will be fine. This is your second child, so you have experience. Let's keep them warm and prepare the baby's swaddling clothes and other things so that they don't get frozen."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, young master. Thank you very much, young master."

The carriage was originally windproof, and Shen Nanzhi lit a small stove inside. Fearing that the smoke would suffocate the woman in labor, he made a simple chimney with paper, so that even if the temperature rose, it would not suffocate her.

The hot water was boiled outside using Shen Nanzhi's iron pot, which was fortunately large enough to provide a constant supply of hot water.

Fortunately, there was no one passing by on the official road, so there was no need to worry about traffic congestion. The lady was giving birth to the child with great difficulty.

No one could help her with this matter. Shen Nanzhi herself had never given birth, so she could only do the logistical work and let her have the baby with peace of mind.

The little girl, Zhao Jie'er, was so frightened that she almost cried. Shen Nanzhi handed her over to Shen Changan and said, "Take good care of the child. Hold her tight and don't let her run around."

Shen Changan was at a loss as he hadn't married yet and didn't know how to take care of a child.

His cousin Shen Changxing took the child and said, "Let me do it. My son is two years younger than her and he's easy to coax."

“How to coax?”

"He will be very well behaved if you give him candy. I have some candy here. Please eat it, but don't cry. Your mother is giving birth to a younger brother for you. As a sister, you must be strong and take care of your younger brother in the future."

Zhao Jieer wanted to cry even more, "I don't want candy, I want my mother."

Shen Changxing threatened: "If you keep crying, it will be your fault that your mother can't give birth to a brother. You can't cry."

Shen Nanzhi couldn't listen any longer, "Why are you scaring the child? She's still a child. Who says that a sister has to take care of her brother?

Is it wrong to be born a few years earlier? If parents are so partial, why don’t they have so many children? Is that fair to the children?”

Shen Changxing: "Every family lives like this, the older ones take care of the younger ones, what else can we do? Sister Nanzhi, you are too soft-hearted, what do children know? Beat them when they should be beaten, scare them when they should be scared, otherwise they will turn the tables."

Shen Nanzhi glared and said, "You are not qualified to be a father. If there is a choice, the child will definitely not choose you as a father.

"You gave me your child, what did you teach him? Can you afford to pay for it if he becomes psychologically traumatized?"

Aunt Liu's attention was focused on the fact that he called her "Sister Nanzhi". She looked at her carefully and found that she was actually a girl?

Shen Nanzhi hugged Zhao Jie'er and coaxed her, "Don't be afraid, you should cheer up your mother, so that she can have the strength to give birth to a younger brother.

Your mother is in a life-or-death situation now, and she needs your encouragement. Crying won't solve the problem. Zhao Jie'er is a brave child, and she will definitely help your mother give birth to a younger brother."

Zhao Jieer stopped crying. "If I don't cry, will mother give birth to a younger brother? I am willing to take care of my younger brother and give him delicious food."

"Of course, Sister Zhao is a blessed child. She will definitely be able to see her brother is safe."

Zhao Jie'er was happy. She wanted to help A Niang instead of hindering her.

Nanny Liu kept pouring hot water in, bringing out basins of bloody water and pouring them aside, without paying any attention.

Shen Nanzhi wrapped Zhao Jie'er tightly with his cloak and held her tightly in his arms, while observing the guards and the coachman out of the corner of his eyes. Although they were standing far away, their expressions were sinister and they seemed to have bad intentions.

The driver was a simple and honest man. He had fallen and hit his head. He had just been rescued and was a little dazed. He sat by the fire and ate the corn porridge cooked by Shen Changxing. He looked very satisfied. Eating a bowl of hot porridge in such a cold weather warmed him up and made him feel less miserable.

"It's bad. Madam has no strength left and can't give birth to the baby."

Nanny Liu said nervously, walking down the stairs in a hurry.

"Does she need to eat? I have some ginseng slices here. You can make her a bowl of ginseng soup."

Aunt Liu was overjoyed: "You still have ginseng? That's great, you really saved our lady's life."

"Don't thank me yet, saving people is the most important thing."

Shen Nanzhi went back to her sled to search, actually she was looking for ginseng slices from the space. They were the century-old ginseng she had collected in her previous life, and she had spent tens of thousands of dollars on them.

Ginseng slices were boiled in water and brought in for the lady. With the ginseng soup and Zhao Jie'er's cries outside, there was movement inside again. A mother is strong, and the lady took her last breath and finally gave birth to the child with a scream.

Madam Liu said excitedly, "Madam, the baby is born, it's born."

The lady was about to faint, "Why isn't the child crying?"

"This……"

Aunt Liu was not a midwife and didn’t understand this. Looking at the child’s dark face, she felt heartbroken. Could it be that the child could not survive?

"my child……"

The lady's tears rolled down, she cried out sadly, and then fainted.

For a moment, the carriage was filled with crying. Zhao Jieer couldn't help crying: "Mother, what's wrong with you? Where's my brother? I want mother, I want my brother..."

Shen Nanzhi was so anxious, "Changan, hold the child, I'll go in and take a look."

The guard immediately came over to stop him: "How can you, a man, go in?"

"I'm a woman, is that ok? There must be something wrong with you two. You don't care about the life of the master, but are just looking for trouble. Wait for me to come out and deal with you. Keep an eye on them, and tie them up if they dare to do anything."

"You, you are talking nonsense..."

Shen Nanzhi took off her hairband, revealing her black hair, which made her look more feminine. She pointed at the two of them and threatened, "Behave yourself, or I'll throw you out to feed the wolves."

The two could only shut up and were shocked. It turned out to be a woman?

Shen Nanzhi bent down and went in, drove the two maids out, and left Nanny Liu to clean up the mess.
