Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 1053: Can she do it?
Yu Dong walked close to the mer who was crying on the ground. She did not know why the woman was asking her to save her husband but she couldn't watch a mer die in front of her either.
She reached out and placed her hand on the mer's belly to check what was going on with the mer, as soon as she placed her hand on the pregnant belly of the mer, Yu Dong was a bit amused by the feeling of two hearts beating together as one.
In the apocalyptic world, women hardly gave birth to children.
And if they were awakened, it was simply impossible for them to get pregnant as the government officials did not allow them to take maternity leave. Her mother was awakened and thus she and her brothers were born in an incubation room like chickens and ducks, maybe that was why her mother did not have much feeling towards her three children because she never carried them in her womb.
This was the reason why Yu Dong was always fascinated by pregnant mers even after having three kids of her own. Though she did not have much idea about obstetrics, she had learned a few things from her grandmother who used to be the grim reaper of the apocalyptic world.
And thus when she placed her hand on the swollen belly of the mer, she knew that the mer's child had shifted into an abnormal position. No wonder the child couldn't come out even though the mer was using a lot of force to push the child out.
" This… This is not right," one of the mer who was helping Du Shiyi push the child out could not help but speak up when he saw Yu Dong touch the mer. " How can a woman be allowed to aid a mer in giving birth? This is a taboo, a sin."
The other mers also nodded their heads. After all only a mer could assist a mer to give birth to a child. A woman was never allowed to touch or get close to a mer who was close to giving birth or was in labour.
Yu Dong rolled her eyes as she raised her head and pointed to Du Shiyi before saying, " His child is in an upside position, do you understand what I mean? His head is not facing the entrance instead it's his feet. If we don't turn the child's head around, then he will suffocate to death."
She then turned to look at the woman who was the wife of the mer and then explained the matter to her, " Do you understand what I am saying? If you don't like it then I will not touch your mer. If it bothers you, then I would rather let this mer give birth to a stillborn and stay with you as your husband. Rather than being questioned and blamed for ruining his reputation.
Of course, I will not help him give birth, once the child is in the right position, I will leave and let the mers help him."
Yu Dong knew that it was a big thing for a mer to be seen by another woman, which was why she said these words. She did not want the mer to be ruined by her lest his wife later refuse to accept him just because she helped him give birth.
When the woman heard the word of Yu Dong, she immediately stiffened. Her gaze fell on her husband and then she raised her head to look at Yu Dong before gritting her teeth as she said, " Fine. I am all right with Madam Yu helping my husband give birth."
This was her first child and she was so poor that it was already a miracle that she could marry a husband. If her husband died while giving birth to her child then who would she marry? Wouldn't she be losing her child and husband both for absolutely nothing?
When Yu Dong heard the words of the woman, she turned to look at Chen Mi who arrived after hearing the commotion and said, " Bring a contract let her sign it. Write everything down carefully and mention that she is not allowed to divorce her husband later on."
If the woman backs down after the child was born then the contract would protect the mer.
Chen Mi nodded before rushing back to the house, while Shen Li also followed him as Chen Mi was still learning how to write. Ye Liu on the other hand turned to help Yu Dong, " You have never helped anyone give birth, I will come with you to help."
" Me too," Fang Chi raised his hand as he asked the mammy to bring the mer inside the greenhouse. They couldn't move the mer too much which was why they could only bring the mer to the inside of the greenhouse which was closest.
The mer was still crying in pain and because he had suffered from long-term malnutrition, he was terrifyingly thin. His body was all skin and bones with a big, bulging belly.
" Go and bring some sugar water," Yu Dong asked the mammies who helped the mer inside the greenhouse. Since the Yu family house was not far from the greenhouse, it did not take long for the mammies to bring the sugar water. Yu Dong took the bowl from the mammies and then instilled some spiritual energy inside it and then handed it to Ye Liu.
" Pour it in his mouth, let him drink as much as he can," she told him.
Since the mer had not eaten anything for a long time, it would be troublesome if she was to feed him something nutritious. It would only backfire as the mer was too weak to stomach anything even more than Chen Mi.
" I thought that I had given special funds for pregnant mers, why is he so malnourished ?" She could not help but muse but since it was not important, Yu Dong did not ask the mer anything and started to work on adjusting the position of the child.
" Er… Dong Dong, do you really know how to position the child?" Fang Ci asked, as he had heard from a mer mid-husband that it was quite difficult to adjust the position of a fetus. Could Yu Dong really do it?
