In order to prevent accidents during delivery, Yan Muxi prepared three midwives, two of whom were the most famous midwives in Huacheng, and the other one was found from Dafeng by Manager Wu.

The three midwives all asserted that Yan Muxi's fetal position was very smooth, and Doctor Lin also said that Yan Muxi's physical condition was very good and she would be able to give birth safely.

Yinxia was still very worried. Every time Yan Muxi frowned, she pinched her thigh hard, for fear that she would feel dizzy and unable to stay awake, giving people with bad intentions an opportunity to take advantage of her.

In the Sakura Courtyard not far away, Murong Wan looked eagerly in the direction of the main courtyard, "Mother, do you think the young lady of the Qian family can give birth to a child smoothly?"

"Who knows! Giving birth is like walking through the gates of hell for a woman. That girl is pregnant with twins. I'm afraid it will be difficult to give birth to this baby."

In fact, Murong was also nervous, but she appeared strong and calm on the outside. She hoped more than anyone else that Yan Muxi would have an accident, so that no one could suppress her.

In the afternoon, the contractions became more frequent. Yan Muxi's underwear was soaked with cold sweat, and after changing into dry clothes, they became soaked again soon after.

Yin Xia said with a look of heartache: "Miss, if you are in so much pain, just scream out. It is so uncomfortable to hold back the pain!"

"It's okay, I can still bear it." Maybe because she suffered too much in her childhood, Yan Muxi has a strong tolerance for pain. No matter how great the pain is, she can grit her teeth and endure it.

After all, crying out in pain would do her no good at the moment, and there was no one around to act coquettishly and rely on, so it would be better for her to save her energy and give birth to the baby as soon as possible.

But Yan Muxi underestimated the pain of childbirth. When the contractions were almost continuous, she still cried and asked the midwife in a sobbing voice, "How long will it take?"

The midwife coaxed him in a gentle voice, "It's almost there, young lady, make an effort. If everything goes well, the baby will be born in half an hour at most."

When she heard that she had to endure it for another half hour, Yan Muxi's tears flowed even harder. However, she was only upset for a short while before she calmed down and stopped being pretentious.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the outer hall. Yin Xia couldn't help but frown and hurried to comfort Yan Muxi, "Miss, don't worry. Shunzi is guarding in the yard. No one can enter the inner room."

Although Yan Muxi's head was dizzy from the pain, his ears were still working. He could clearly hear someone coming in from outside. Just as he was thinking about whether to ask Yin Xia to go out and take a look, someone unexpectedly opened the curtain and walked in from outside.

When Yan Muxi saw who was coming, she was stunned for a moment, and then tears flowed out uncontrollably, "Aunt Ming~ why are you here~"

Minghui walked quickly to the bedside, felt her pulse first, and then stroked her hair, saying distressedly: "This hair is soaked with sweat. Our Xixi has suffered a lot! Don't cry, be strong, giving birth will only take a while, and you can get through it with a grit of teeth. Once the bunnies in your belly are gone, I will never give birth again!"

Yan Muxi nodded with tears in her eyes, "Okay~ I definitely won't have another baby in the future, but it's really hard to endure~" Then she started to cry again.

Minghui was heartbroken, but she forced a smile on her face, took out a pill from the porcelain bottle in her purse, and put it to her lips, "Be good, open your mouth and take this pill, it will help you regain some strength, and when you have more energy, you will be able to give birth faster."

When Yan Muxi heard that she had to take a pill, she stopped crying instantly and stared at the black pill in front of her with suspicion, "Will the child become darker and uglier after taking this medicine?"

Not understanding why she asked this, Minghui answered truthfully: "No."

"Aunt Ming, are you sure?" Yan Muxi was still a little worried. She had heard Yan Muyun say that all medicines are poisonous. Especially for pregnant women, they must not take medicines indiscriminately. If they are not careful, they may give birth to stupid or ugly children.

Seeing that she was so confused from the pain, but still looked like a cautious and cunning little fox, Minghui felt both distressed and amused. "This pill is for replenishing your physical strength. It has no effect on the child. Don't worry about taking it." After saying that, she stuffed the pill directly into her mouth.

With the company of close elders when she was most vulnerable, Yan Muxi's fear faded away for the most part. She tried her best to cooperate with Minghui and the midwife's instructions, and her first child was born soon.

With a crisp sound, the baby pouted his mouth and cried "wa~".

The midwife smiled and announced the good news, "Congratulations to the nobles, it's a daughter."

The midwife did not say that it was a fat daughter. The baby in front of her was definitely not fat at all. She was skinny and small, much smaller than an ordinary full-term baby.

Yin Xia complained to the midwife distressedly, "Oh, don't say you should hit it lightly. This little thing is not much bigger than a mouse. How can it withstand such a strong hand from you!"

The midwife's smile froze on her face. Because the baby was a daughter of a noble family, she had patted the baby very lightly. Any lighter would have been just tickling. How could the baby cry out?

When she heard that she had given birth to a daughter, Yan Muxi's dizzy mind suddenly cleared up, and she tried to lean over to take a look, "Let me see, is it black or white?"

Yin Xia took a closer look, frowned and smiled: "It's neither black nor white, it's red."

Another midwife boasted, "The redder the skin of a newborn baby is, the more delicate its skin is. The little girl has a pink complexion. She will definitely be a beauty when she grows up."

Upon hearing that, Yan Muxi lay back down with relief. As long as it wasn't a black loach, it would be fine. As for its appearance, it wouldn't be that ugly no matter how hard he tried.

She actually hoped that her daughter could be born with an ordinary appearance, because a very beautiful appearance could often cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

After the first child was born, Yan Muxi felt relieved for only a moment before the labor pains came again like a tide.

Minghui held her hand tightly and tried to comfort her, "Xixi, bear with it for a while. Your grandpa is waiting outside!"

"Grandpa is here too?" Yan Muxi asked with gritted teeth.

Minghui nodded, "Yes, Uncle Qian heard that you were pregnant, and he was worried, so he took the risk and came to check on you."

Yan Muxi's nose felt sore and she wanted to cry again, "It's my fault that I'm too careless. I made Grandpa run around for me even at his old age."

Minghui frowned and scolded, "Don't say silly things. Uncle Qian only cares about you, Xixi, and your mother. You are still young and don't understand many things. In this life, it is better to have concerns than not to have any."

The two of them were talking, distracting most of Yan Muxi's attention. Half a quarter of an hour later, the second child was born.

"Congratulations, sir. It's a little boy." The midwife's voice trembled as she announced the good news.

"Wa~Wa~Wa~" The little baby cried happily while clenching his fists, but Minghui and Yinxia were dumbfounded, their faces pale.

I just can’t understand how Yan Muxi and Yu Wantai, both of whom are good-looking, could have given birth to a child like this!

After a pause, Minghui couldn't help but sigh, "This little thing is really good at adapting to local customs!"

Due to the strong sunlight on the island, the skin color of the people on Hua Island is generally dark, and the newborn baby is dark all over, and really looks like a native of Hua Island.
