At Cheng Su’s house, doors were opening and stoves were lighting up with the sound of people talking, which wasn’t quiet, and it startled the neighbors. Hualing was the first to wake up.
She walked out with bleary eyes and saw that it was indeed brightly lit, not the imagined burglar scene. Then she saw the door to Cheng Su’s house wide open. After thinking for a mont, her mind cleared, and she understood.
Such a commotion in the middle of the night could only an that Cheng Su was about to give birth. It was expected within these few days, so it wasn’t surprising if it was early.
Hualing walked over, went straight into the house, and saw Cheng Su with wet hair sitting in the living room, inhaling and exhaling deeply. She asked, "What’s up, are you in labor?"
Cheng Su saw her and nodded.
At this mont, Mother Cheng also brought over a bowl of freshly cooked egg soup rice: "Quickly eat this, there’s Ginger in it."
Seeing this, Hualing said, "I’ll go back and change clothes, and go to the hospital with you!"
Mother Cheng was delighted with this and said, "Oh, so grateful to Sister-in-law Chen!" She knew Hualing was a nurse, and that Cheng Su was giving birth at their hospital.
These days, having connections makes things easier. With Hualing around, they wouldn’t have to worry about the doctors delivering the baby at the hospital.
By this point, Cheng Su couldn’t respond to Hualing as she was adjusting her breathing, enduring the pain of contractions, and gulping down the soup rice.
After eating most of the soup rice, Qi Taiguo also returned. He wanted to carry Cheng Su out, but she stopped him.
"Let her walk by herself, it’s good for the delivery later!" Hualing and Mother Cheng both said in unison.
Qi Taiguo looked at Cheng Su, seeing her pale face with sweat all over her forehead, and couldn’t help but worry: "Are you sure you can do it?"
Cheng Su, in pain, clenched her teeth and nodded, saying, "Yes, let’s go."
Qi Taiguo listened and had to help her walk, and the group of them set off for the hospital in majestic fashion.
On the way, Qi Taiguo drove fast, feeling extrely anxious.
When they arrived at the hospital, it was already five-thirty. It was sumr, so the day broke early, and the sky was already sowhat bright at this ti.
Upon entering the hospital, with several people accompanying her and Hualing, the familiar nurse, helping out, Cheng Su only needed to wait. The rest, such as admission and accompanying for childbirth, naturally had others to take care of.
With Hualing’s help, a duty doctor soon ca over to examine Cheng Su.
After an examination, Cheng Su looked at the obstetrician with high hopes, thinking, with all this pain, she should be ready to give birth, right?
"Only two centiters dilated; you can’t give birth yet. Get up and walk around!" the doctor announced blandly.
What?
The pain was at this level, and only two centiters? Heaven, might as well kill her now!
Hualing, who ca along, gave her a sympathetic look.
Mother Cheng, who was good at handling things, quietly slipped the prepared red envelope over and said in a flattering tone: "Doctor, we leave my daughter’s care in your hands!"
The doctor quickly pocketed the red envelope and said, "It’s what we’re supposed to do, and besides, she’s Nurse Hua’s friend, don’t worry! First, get up and walk around; it’ll be helpful when you give birth later!"
"Yes, yes!"
Mother Cheng hurriedly helped Cheng Su up and said, "Listen to the doctor, walk around more, it’s okay. When you give birth later, it’ll be like taking a dump, just push, and it’d co out!"
This crude comnt made everyone there twitch their mouths.
Cheng Su blushed and turned pale repeatedly. What kind of talk was that, calling it taking a dump? Taking a dump wasn’t this painful, alright?
But she couldn’t be bothered by her mother’s bold words because the pain began again.
