While going to pour herbal tea for everyone, Gao Shan found Deng Hao, the boss of the Deng family, and whispered a few words.
Deng Hao is twenty-three years old this year and is already married with children, so he should be able to strike up a conversation with Liu Rong.
So Deng Hao and Gao Shan went to the yard to distribute the herbal tea to everyone.
After sending the message, Deng Hao sat down next to Liu Rong, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a face that I know what I've been through: "How many years have I grown, and I call you Brother Liu, will it scare you?"
Alas, this is what women do when they give birth.
"I still remember when my wife gave birth to a baby, I was so frightened that I didn't come back to my senses until the baby was born. It was only when my dad slapped me that I knew I was finally a dad!"
Deng Hao couldn't help but feel a little emotional when talking about the situation back then, but he still didn't forget Gao Shan's explanation.
He continued to say to Liu Rong: "Old people say that when a woman gives birth to a child, she has one foot in the gate of hell. We can't do much to help except waiting outside..."
Liu Rong: "..."
Although he had been sitting in the corner, painful groans could be heard in the delivery room. He was not deaf or really cold-hearted, so it was definitely a lie to say he didn't care.
But he kept thinking about what the doctor said before.
The fetus was in an incorrect position on the first day, and it was a transverse fetus. It was absolutely impossible for mother and child to be safe. It was God's blessing to save one, and it was almost certain that one would die and two would die.
He started seeking medical treatment at seven months old, and he was worried at first.
He had been married for less than two years, and the two of them were still mixing honey with oil. This child was also his first child.
If possible, he naturally hopes that everything will go well.
However, the doctors who had seen her all concluded that it would be difficult for both mother and child to survive. Some even said that even if the mother could be saved, it would be difficult for her to become pregnant again in the future.
As time passed, Liu Rong gradually lost confidence. Under the instigation of thoughtful people, he increasingly felt that a wife who had difficulty conceiving would be better off earning compensation for himself.
In this way, he might be able to earn back the money he spent on marrying his wife, so that he can marry someone younger and more fertile.
But listening to Deng Hao's words at this time, hearing him talk about how hard his wife worked after the child was born, how cute the child was, and how happy he was, Liu Rong couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
Yes, it is his wife who is struggling in the house, and it is his child who is hovering on the line of life and death!
He raised his head and glanced at his brothers who were standing under the wall not far away, discussing how much compensation they should pay. Liu Rong's heart gradually hardened again.
He kept saying to himself, it's not that I want to give up mother and son, but because my wife has a difficult childbirth, one dead body and two lives are already the destined outcome.
I have been kind to her over the years. In order to change her fetal position, my family spent a lot of money to help her.
But if you are really desperate and can make up for some losses for your family, your wife and children should be able to understand.
With these words, Liu Rong suppressed the guilt that surged in his heart. He reluctantly smiled at Deng Hao, rubbed his face vigorously, and said nothing more.
Seeing this, Deng Hao stood up and said, "I know you are in a complicated mood now, so I won't disturb you any more."
He walked out of the yard. As soon as he was out of everyone's sight, he immediately quickened his pace and went to Gao Shan and said, "Uncle Gao, I also think there is something wrong with Liu Rong. He doesn't look like a man who is looking forward to his wife having children at all. He looks more like
It seems that he already knew that his wife and children would not survive, and most likely he came here deliberately to extort money. What should we do now?"
Gao Shan touched his chin and thought for a long time, but he couldn't think of any good solution.
The mother-in-law has already been welcomed into the house, and her family members have also come in. Unless everyone can be controlled, there will definitely be trouble if something goes wrong.
Losing money is a trivial matter, but the most important thing is that once you lose money, it is equivalent to admitting that it is your own fault, and it will inevitably damage Lady Tong's reputation.
Just when Gao Shan was thinking about whether to say hello to Xie Yan and see if he had any good ideas, Shen Tianshu had no idea that the mother-in-law was already calculating how much compensation they could get from her and was concentrating on helping the mother give birth. .
Breech position is also prone to accidents, especially if the mother gives birth for the first time.
Before the cervix is fully opened, the baby's little feet can't wait to stick out.
Shen Tianshu immediately grabbed a piece of cloth that had been boiled and dried and stuffed it up.
The head of the fetus is the largest and hardest part. If the birth canal has not been completely opened, the legs and body of the child are allowed to come out first, and the head of the fetus is left until the end. The birth canal will not be stretched enough to allow the head of the fetus to pass through the birth canal. Over time, it can easily lead to fetal death.
So seeing the child's feet exposed, Shen Tianshu immediately blocked them back and waited for the birth canal to fully open.
Fortunately, the medicine she drank before took effect quickly. The mother's physical strength recovered a lot, her belly continued to shrink, and the birth canal gradually opened.
Shen Tianshu felt that he was almost done, so he finally let go of his hands and began to prepare for the birth of the child.
The fetus's legs and buttocks were delivered quickly. Shen Tianshu immediately wrapped the child's legs and buttocks with clean cotton cloth, supported the child's body while rotating it, and pulled it downwards to help deliver the shoulders and upper limbs.
Zhang Muqiu was paying attention to the condition of the mother and Shen Tianshu's movements.
As her upper limbs and shoulders were fully exposed, her heart began to lift.
This is the most difficult and critical time.
"Mu Qiu is here to help." Shen Tianshu greeted.
"Yes!" Zhang Muqiu hurried over and followed Shen Tianshu's instructions, gently pushing the fetal head from the direction of the mother's belly to help the fetal head descend.
Shen Tianshu fixed the baby's body with both hands, trying to turn it in another direction so that the fetal head could be delivered more smoothly.
But the child refused to cooperate no matter what, and the resistance was very strong. She did not dare to force herself, so she could only hold the child's body with one hand.
Shen Tianshu's sweat kept flowing down like water, but he didn't bother to wipe it at this time.
She adjusted her posture, held the child's body with her left hand, and raised it appropriately.
Put your right hand in, use your fingers to hold the baby's head, and try to help the baby adjust the angle to better coordinate with delivery.
"Harder!" Shen Tianshu's voice became hoarse.
The mother seemed to know that this was the last moment, so she gritted her teeth and tried her best.
I don’t know how long it took, but the mother finally felt her body loosen up, and she heard Zhang Muqiu shouting excitedly: “It’s out!”
The mother just breathed a sigh of relief. Before she could ask whether it was a boy or a girl, her heart suddenly thought, since the baby was born, why didn't she hear the baby's cry?
She wanted to ask, but found that all her strength seemed to have been lost with the delivery of the child, her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, her mouth opened and closed several times, but no sound came out...
