He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

As expected, after returning from a trip to Beidi, the caravans came to Lu Yan to rent a shop. To Lu Yan's surprise, they all planned to rent one in Youzhou and another in Liaozhou to facilitate the exchange of goods.

The matter of renting a shop in Liaozhou was handed over to Lu Sheng. Lu Sheng took people to visit places and introduced the development status and plans of Liaozhou for several days, and he was very busy.

After the caravan affairs were dealt with, summer was almost over and the wheat harvest season arrived in a few days.

Because the seeds are optimized year by year, this year's harvest is obviously much better than in previous years, almost three times the amount from the first year of planting.

Just like in previous years, the best growing ones were picked out as seeds for the next year. During the autumn harvest, Lu Zhao also went with them and watched with great interest. I don't know what he understood.

This year the prince arrived a little earlier than in previous years, and he was in a hurry all the way. If he hadn't wanted to see what fun things Lu Yan had come up with this year, he wouldn't have wanted to stay in Liaoyang County and would have gone straight to the military camp.

Lu Yan introduced allicin to the prince: "This thing is extracted from garlic. It is very useful. When used with alcohol, it can greatly reduce the incidence of fever and death after injury."

The prince was very surprised: "There is such a magical thing in garlic? Well, well, take it back and let the imperial hospital study it. The imperial doctors respect you very much now!"

Lu Yan waved her hands quickly: "This is too much for me. By the way, why are you so anxious this time?"

The prince counted the days and said, "It's almost four months now, I should be able to tell people. Hongling is pregnant, I want to finish it as soon as possible so I can go back to be with her."

Lu Yan was so excited that she was incoherent: "Really? This, this, this... I don't have any gift to give her..."

"You can give a lot. I know that your hot spring manor has fruits every winter. The price of fruits sold in the capital is ridiculously high." The prince smiled and said, "If you have a conscience, you can provide for your good sister for a few months."

Lu Yan nodded decisively: "Give it to her! Just tell her what you want to eat and how much you want to eat. I will provide for her until she gives birth."

The prince patted Lu Yan on the shoulder and said, "It must be because Manager Lu is so rich!"

Lu Yan was most concerned about Jian Hongling's health: "How is her health? Did the imperial physician say anything after examining her?"

"She is in good health. The imperial physician checks her pulse every day. There is nothing wrong with her." The prince said, "And the imperial physician said she is pregnant with twins."

Jian Hongling was pregnant with twins.

The prince mentioned this matter lightly, which caused an uproar in Lu Yan's heart.

In ancient times when medical resources were scarce, giving birth was like stepping on the edge of death, and having twins was even more dangerous. Twins would increase the chances of a dystocia, and in ancient times when there was no caesarean section, the mortality rate from dystocia was very high.

Lu Yan tried hard to think whether the original novel had written when Jian Hongling died. She tried to recall for a long time and found that it didn't. The original novel ended when the prince and princess got married, and the plot after that was completely out of the setting.

In other words, it is still uncertain whether Jian Hongling can survive.

Lu Yan suddenly became nervous and said to the prince, "You go first and deliver food to the military camp. I'll get you something good when you come back."

The prince didn't know what she was going to do, but he trusted her blindly, nodded in agreement, and set off the next day.

The good thing Lu Yan wanted to make was forceps.

If the pregnant woman can give birth normally, there is no need to use forceps. However, if she encounters a difficult birth with an extremely high mortality rate, forceps will be needed to assist in the delivery.

The principle of forceps is very simple, it is a clamp composed of two branched blades. The blades have a curve that conforms to the fetal head curve and pelvic curve. The shape of the head curve conforms to the fetal head, pulling the fetal head during delivery to assist delivery.

Since it is a one-time use, it is more gentle to make it out of wood, and you don’t have to worry about disinfection after you throw it away. If the prince wants to promote it, he can make it out of metal, which can be used repeatedly and is easier to disinfect.

Lu Yan has been busy making this thing these days. Lu Sheng was curious and came over to ask what she was doing. After Lu Yan explained it to him, he was completely shocked.

Lu Sheng couldn't help but applaud: "You can even intervene in matters of childbirth, that's amazing."

Lu Yan sighed: "I can't quite tell whether you are praising me or teasing me."

"Of course I'm praising you." Lu Sheng said, "You don't even have a child yourself, but you're still thinking about improving the maternal survival rate. How selfless."

Lu Yan laughed and said, "Thank you, it sounds more like yin and yang."

Lu Sheng protested: "You can't think of me like that. I've never raised any objections to anything you proposed."

"Really?" Lu Yan suddenly leaned close to Lu Sheng and said, "I said I don't want to have children, but you're still thinking about those dirty things every day."

Lu Sheng was choked. "You are being unreasonable, aren't you? I am a man, and my nominal wife sleeps next to me every day. Is it abnormal for me to think about her? I am not thinking about anyone else."

Lu Yan originally wanted to tease him, but she didn't expect Lu Sheng to care so much, so she simply patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, okay, I know everything. I didn't say you shouldn't worry about it. Wait for me."

Lu Sheng was a little confused: "What are you waiting for?"

Lu Yan: "Wait until I come up with a complete plan."
