The general's wife knows medicine

"Aunt Tang, Aunt Tang~~" There was a heavy knock on the door outside the Tang family's courtyard.

"Gouzi, what's wrong?" Tang's mother was feeding the pigs. When she heard the voice, she walked away while wiping her hands with her apron.

"Aunt Tang, my mother asked me to come and call you. She told you to go to Sister Peipei as soon as possible. Sister Peipei seems to be about to give birth." "What?" Tang's mother quickly took off her apron and ran towards Tang Peipei's thatched hut.

"Oh, Aunt Tang, you're finally here. Come on, go and invite Grandma Qi for Peipei." Gou Zi's mother, Aunt Du, quickly grabbed Tang Peipei's mother who wanted to go into the house to see Tang Peipei.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm confused." After saying that, he ran towards Grandma Qi's house.

Grandma Qi is the only midwife in the village who can deliver babies. Because she is an outsider and is one of the older grandmothers in the village, everyone in the village calls her Grandma Qi. She lives not far from the thatched cottage where Tang Peipei lives.

After a while, Tang's mother took Grandma Qi over.

"Grandma Qi, Peipei is sorry to bother you."

"Don't worry, I will try my best to ensure the safety of the mother and child. You can go and prepare hot water." After saying that, he went into the house without any further delay.

Grandma Qi came into the room and looked at Tang Peipei lying on the bed, feeling distressed.

I saw Tang Peipei lying on the bed with a big belly, but her body was so thin that her bones were just skin and bones. I don’t know if it was due to malnutrition or because of the pain, but her sallow face was pale.

"Peipei, grandma will help you take off your skirt and pants now. If it hurts, bear it. Don't use force on your lower body. I'll let you do it later. Can you do it again?"

Tang Peipei was in so much pain that she couldn't speak and could only nod weakly.

Grandma Qi took off Tang Peipei's skirt and pants, and saw that her cervix was only one finger dilated. She knew that she would not give birth for the time being. After all, the cervix of women who give birth for the first time dilates very slowly.

Grandma Qi covered Tang Peipei with a quilt and went outside.

"It will take some time for Pei Pei to give birth. Is there anything to eat at home? It would be best to feed her some chicken soup or something, otherwise she might not have the strength to give birth."

Grandma Qi's words made Tang's mother feel embarrassed. Tang Peipei was kicked out of the house by Tang Ren, so she naturally would not let Tang's mother kill a chicken and stew it for Tang Peipei. What's more, in ancient times when life was difficult, chicken was a precious food.

Grandma Qi saw the difficulty Tang's mother was in, and she sighed and said, "Go to my house and ask Kunzi to stew a chicken and bring it over."

"How can we do that?" Tang's mother felt full of guilt. Everyone else felt sorry for her daughter, but she and her husband drove such a difficult daughter out of the house. After giving birth to such a big thing, they couldn't even make chicken soup for their daughter.

Seeing Tang's mother like this, Grandma Qi was a little angry. She really couldn't understand Tang's mother's thinking. She felt sorry for her daughter, but she didn't do anything.

"There's nothing wrong with that. I watched Peipei grow up and she has called me grandma for more than ten years. I'm willing to give her this cup of chicken soup."

After saying that, he ignored Tang's mother and went into the house.

"Oh, Aunt Tang, since Grandma Qi said so, you should go quickly. I'll help you watch the water in the pot." Aunt Du couldn't understand what Mother Tang did and could only sigh that she was too cowardly.

Tang's mother went to Grandma Qi's house to stew chicken soup, but Tang Peipei entered a new round of pain.

This time, Tang Peipei clearly felt that she was about to die. She was almost dying from the pain.

Thinking about the man she had been waiting for for so long, on the verge of death, she suddenly felt how ridiculous she was. How could she be so sure that man would come back?

From beginning to end, except for that glance, the man never looked at her or spoke a word to her.

At this time, Tang Peipei regretted her decision and regretted keeping the child for her ridiculous expectations.

But it was no use regretting it, she was afraid she couldn't bear it anymore.
