\u201cSheets?\u201d Zhao Liu was stunned for a moment but very quickly said with a smile. \u201cYes yes, bring some sheets. It\u2019s good.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The people in Hexi Village gave birth in a straw bed then burned the straw after giving birth, not to mention the sheets that would usually be empty.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Once there was a young daughter-in-law who didn\u2019t understand it and gave birth to a child in her own bed. At last, just after the birth, she was forced by her mother-in-law to wash the sheets . . . Because she did not know, she soiled the quilt at home.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Zhao Liu was also habitually thinking. Although she tried her best to think for Zhao Jinge, she did not think of preparing bedsheets for him. However, although Zhao Liu did not prepare, Jiang Zhen said that she should go and get their bedsheets, and she was very much in favor of it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Thinking that straw might sting a bit, Jiang Zhen dug out three sheets and brought them over. The two coarse cloth mattresses they had bought when they first got married were placed underneath, and a new sheet was laid on them. At the same time, he also prepared two pillows and a small quilt for Zhao Jinge. By the time when he had already done all of this, t<\/span>he midwife had already arrived.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cAll right, Jiang Zhen, go out first.\u201d When Zhao Liu saw the midwife coming, she quickly faced Jiang Zhen and said that men were not allowed to enter the delivery room. It was not appropriate for Jiang Zhen to stay here.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Jiang Zhen did not seem to hear and his eyes stayed on Zhao Jinge, who was already lying on the bed: \u201cJinge, are you okay? Does it hurt?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Zhao Jinge was frowning and seemed to be in pain. Zhao Jinge was really hurting, but the pain didn\u2019t last long. After Jiang Zhen asked, it almost did not hurt anymore. Seeing Jiang Zhen staring at him, he said, \u201cI\u2019m okay. You go out first.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cNo, I\u2019ll stay here,\u201d Jiang Zhendao said that although he lived alone in modern times, he would get together with his comrades in arms from time to time. He didn\u2019t even have a suitable companion, but his comrades in arms got married one after another and had their own children. When chatting, they would talk about children.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

One of his comrades in arms went to accompany his wife when she gave birth, and he still remembers what the comrade-in-arms said at that time: \u201cHow painful it is for the woman to have a baby. As men, we should take care of them. Even if we can\u2019t do anything, we can at least cheer them up . . .\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Even though he knew that men would not go into the delivery room in this era, Jiang Zhen still wanted to stay.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cI\u2019ll just sit here and won\u2019t cause you any trouble,\u201d Jiang Zhen said to Zhao Liu. \u201cYou won\u2019t even notice I exist.\u201d Jiang Zhen moved a stool and sat at the head of Zhao Jinge\u2019s bed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

His comrade in arms who accompanied his wife giving birth also sat at the head of the bed. At the end, his legs became so numb that he could hardly stand up.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cIf a man stays in the delivery room, he will get bad luck\u2014\u201d the midwife said. But before she could finish, she was glared at by Jiang Zhen. She immediately did not dare to speak any more. In the countryside, they were not as fastidious as big families, so Jiang Zhen could stay if he really wanted to.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Although she had never seen a man accompany his wife in giving birth, there were still these young couples in some families. Husbands also go in and out of the delivery room, bringing in hot water and scissors. The patient would give birth very quickly and sleep well. At that time, the husband would still be at their side . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The midwife had no problem with it, so Zhao Liu had no problem with it either, and so, Jiang Zhen stayed. Only at this time, Jiang Zhen remembered one thing, \u201cMother, you should go and ask Wang Haisheng to go to the county town and invite a doctor to come.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cWhat do you want the doctor for?\u201d Zhao Jinge was puzzled.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cJust in case,\u201d Jiang Zhen said. In modern times, children were born in hospitals, so even if something went wrong in the middle, other arrangements could be made immediately, such as a cesarean or something, but there was nothing here. . . \u201cMother, when the doctor comes over, ask him to take some medicine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cOh good.\u201d Zhao Liu nodded. Jiang Zhen\u2019s attitude made her even more nervous.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

After Zhao Liu went out, she immediately found Wang Haisheng and asked him to bring a doctor.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Wang Haisheng might not be very clever, but he was very obedient. After Zhao Liu gave an order, he hurriedly ran out without delay. Someone on the way asked him about it, but he only hurriedly said, \u201cI am going to get a doctor.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Thanks to the scene Jiang Zhen made earlier, basically the whole of Hexi knew that Zhao Jinge was going to have a baby. So when they heard that Wang Haisheng was going to get the doctor, there was immediately a lot of speculation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cWang Haisheng went to bring a doctor in such a hurry. Isn\u2019t it because Zhao Jinge didn\u2019t have an easy birth?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cMaybe it\u2019s harder for gers to have children than it is for women. \u201c<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cNo wonder Jiang Zhen was so nervous before. I\u2019m afraid it was already not good at that time. . .\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cZhao Jinge is really unlucky. It\u2019s difficult for him to give birth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u00a0. . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Everyone talked about it and sympathized with Zhao Jinge, who was still lying in bed at the moment and then endured a burst of pain. He had suffered a lot of pain. This pain was not unbearable, but in the end, it was still uncomfortable, especially at the waist . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cI\u2019ll rub it for you.\u201d Hearing Zhao Jinge say his waist was uncomfortable, Jiang Zhen immediately said and asked Zhao Jinge to lie on side, so he could rub Zhao Jinge\u2019s waist.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The midwife was hurriedly invited over, so she thought the baby would be born soon, but looking at Zhao Jinge like this . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cHe has not just started to hurt, has he?\u201d the midwife couldn\u2019t help but ask.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cHalf an hour ago, it started to hurt.\u201d Jiang Zhen had already asked Zhao Jinge about the specific situation and quickly answered.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not uncommon for a first-time baby to be born only after it hurts for two days,\u201d the midwife said. \u201cZhao Jinge looks like he will not give birth for a while . . . Shall I go home first?\u201d She was cooking when she was called over, so she thought it was a close birth as a result . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cWhat if he is going to have a baby when you go back?\u201d Jiang Zhen could not help frowning. Thinking for a moment, he took out 2 silver and gave it to the midwife. \u201cPlease wait here.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

If a midwife helped people deliver babies in the countryside, she can basically get dozens of copper coins, eggs, and some other things but this was two silver! The midwife didn\u2019t want to go back anymore and decided that even if Zhao Jinge gave birth tomorrow, she would still stay with him all night! Speaking of which . . . With Jiang Zhen\u2019s generosity, she would probably get a large reward if she helped Zhao Jinge deliver a son. The midwife no longer said that she was going to leave while Zhao Jinge, who was resting in bed, felt his stomach was not hurting as much as before.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

After lying down for more than half an hour, he became a little restless and was about to get out of bed and walk around.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cJinge . . .” Jiang Zhen was a little confused about what was going on with Zhao Jinge and why he still looked so . . . high spirited.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cI\u2019m a little hungry,\u201d Zhao Jinge said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Jiang Zhen was silent for a while and finally said, \u201cI\u2019ll ask Mother to make something delicious. When you are full, your strength will be renewed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

There were a lot of people outside the Zhao family house. While everyone was wondering how Zhao Jinge\u2019s childbirth was going, they saw a curl of cooking smoke rising from the house. This . . . Zhao family was still free to cook?<\/span><\/p>\r\n

At the same time, Wang Haisheng, who hurriedly rowed a boat to the country town brought an old doctor on board.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cDid that family have a dangerous childbirth?\u201d the old doctor asked worriedly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d Wang Haisheng said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cWell, hurry up and row, and I\u2019ll take care of the medicine I brought,\u201d the old doctor said. These men hurried to find him and asked him to bring medicine, so he thought the person giving birth or the child was not in good condition . . . <\/span>He had brought several kinds of life-threatening medicine, and he was arranging them in advance so it would be easier to use them when the time came.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Wang Haisheng nodded and rowed as fast as he could.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The first time Sun Xiaoshan gave birth to his baby, it was very dangerous. At that time, let alone a doctor, he couldn\u2019t even afford to invite a midwife. In the end, he delivered Sun Xiaoshan\u2019s baby by himself. It was already more difficult for a ger to have children than a woman, so he hoped nothing happened to Zhao Jinge . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Many people were worried about Zhao Jinge but he himself still felt good at this moment.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

He\u2019s just having a baby, so he could let people care about him a little . . . He was so satisfied that he could even endure the pain.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Zhao Liu was already in a bit of a panic and couldn\u2019t cook well at all . . . so in the end, the meal was cooked by Cook Li and Jiang Xiaomei.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Speaking of which, Jiang Xiaomei was a little confused at the moment . . . She always loved money, and after she was almost sold by the Jiang family, she began to love the money even more. Originally, Jiang Zhen did not intend to let her do any work. Anyway, he could afford to support the girl until she married. However, after hearing that she could earn money at Zhao Jinge\u2019s brick kiln by making bricks, Jiang Xiaomei went there without hesitation. Recently, she made a lot of bricks for money every day.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

She was not very diligent originally. After all, she didn\u2019t want to end up like her elder brother, but recently, she could earn money by playing with mud, so Jiang Xiaomei became totally devoted to this brick kiln.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Over the past few months, she had unexpectedly earned two silver. If it went like this, she might be able to save more than 20 silver as her private property?<\/span><\/p>\r\n

She was also making bricks there that day, but later, when she heard that Zhao Jinge was going to have a baby, she rushed back. On the way, she was told that Zhao Jinge was having a difficult labor, so she was full of anxiety. But when she came back home . . . Zhao Jinge hadn\u2019t even given birth yet . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n
