The Fallen Medicine Woman: The Daily Life of Chun Nuan
Chapter 512 - 330:
Yes, they have all delivered dozens of babies under the guidance of the teacher, so they are already accustomed to such scenes.
"Elder sister, how are you feeling?"
"Fifth sister, you’re here." Zhong Huimin saw Zhong Xiuxiu as if seeing a savior, her eyes suddenly brightened: "Fifth sister, it hurts so much, I can’t bear it anymore."
"Elder sister, let me check your pulse."
After checking the pulse, she also felt the fetal position.
The midwife glanced at Zhong Xiuxiu, her eyebrows remained furrowed, still a young maid, looking a bit displeased.
"What, does the Minister’s Mansion not trust Granny Chen? You still need another expert? In this case, I’ll leave."
"Aunt Chen, it’s not like that, this is the sister from Young Madam’s family, she is a female doctor."
Nanny Yu serving Zhong Huimin hurriedly introduced.
"What female doctor? I only know that your Minister’s Mansion didn’t get anyone else, and now you’ve invited someone else, clearly you don’t trust me, so I’m leaving."
After speaking, she turned and left.
"Aunt Chen, my Young Madam has already started labor, why are you leaving now after being invited?"
"I told you, since you don’t trust me, why invite me?" Granny Chen said: "I’m that kind of person, if I’m here, you can’t have her, if she’s here, you can’t have me, you choose yourselves."
"Aunt Chen, elder sister’s fetus is not aligned, it’s a transverse fetus, since you are so skilled, you must be able to correct it, right?"
Granny Chen was stunned... she even detected the fetal misalignment!
Yes, it’s a transverse fetus, labor has begun, very dangerous for the mother, a life and death situation, she didn’t want it to go wrong under her hands, so she decided to leave early.
"I’m not skilled, you are, you stay, I’ll leave."
Granny Chen insisted on leaving.
"What’s going on?"
Mrs. Fang and Madam Zhong heard the commotion from outside and came in asking.
They were furious upon learning Granny Chen wanted to leave.
The child is about to be born, and the invited midwife wants to leave, how irresponsible.
"You are the midwife, naturally it should be your call, my Fifth Girl is just learning medicine, she just came to see her elder sister, having seen her, she should withdraw now." Madam Zhong took a deep breath: "Fifth Girl, you step outside."
"Mother, I cannot leave, elder sister’s fetus is transverse, the situation is very dangerous, I must correct the fetal position first."
What?
"Look, you’ve invited a real expert, I confess I’m not capable, let me leave first."
With a swing of her arm, she left.
"This..." Mrs. Fang was stunned: "What are we to do now? If something happens to Huimin..."
This chaos was caused by someone from your own family, don’t blame the Fang family.
"No, Huimin won’t have any trouble."
Madam Zhong knew why Granny Chen was leaving after hearing about the transverse fetus; she feared liability.
She was so flustered, she couldn’t even be bothered to be angry with the old midwife.
"Fifth Girl, is your elder sister alright, should we call..."
"Mother, do you trust me?"
Zhong Xiuxiu said: "Trust your daughter, she will do everything to help elder sister deliver this child."
"I trust you, Fifth Girl, you must help your elder sister."
"Fifth sister." Zhong Huimin grabbed Zhong Xiuxiu’s hand: "Elder sister also trusts you, the lives of elder sister and child are entrusted to you."
"Yes, elder sister, relax, these are minor issues, I can handle them." Zhong Xiuxiu looked at Zhong Huimin: "Elder sister, do you want a son or a daughter?"
"I want a son." Zhong Huimin said: "Because daughters suffer the pain of childbirth when they grow up, I can’t bear it."
"Then elder sister will have her wish come true."
"Fifth sister, are you saying..."
She had actually asked the doctor, but the doctor didn’t say if it was a boy or girl.
Everyone in the family naturally preferred a boy, as the Minister’s Mansion still had no male grandchildren.
If Zhong Huimin bore a son, what great merit that would be.
"Elder sister, trust me, I will correct the fetal position, it might hurt a bit, bear with it."
"Yes, for the child, I can bear any pain or hardship."
There’s nothing she couldn’t endure, for her son, Zhong Huimin gritted her teeth, enduring all kinds of pain.
After a while, Zhong Xiuxiu was sweating profusely, finally letting out a long sigh of relief.
"Alright, little one, come out, your Fifth Aunt is really tired."
"Fifth sister..."
"Elder sister, take this pill, it will help you during childbirth."
