[Sense and Sensibility] Fascinated by you

If a woman makes up her mind to do something, then a man probably cannot stop it.

Including having a baby.

Colonel Brandon walked up and down the delivery room violently, and no matter what anyone said, he could not stop him from doing so.

Hathaway didn't sleep well yesterday morning, tossing and turning, which made Colonel Brandon, who was always worried about his wife, unable to sleep well. Since his wife became pregnant, he has been in a state of anxiety, worried that Hathaway's body would not be able to bear it. , Worried that the bumps in the carriage will hurt the fetus (during the honeymoon period), worried that Hathaway won’t be able to eat, worried about this and that, the situation will become more serious as the expected date of delivery is reached, according to Hathaway’s words, this is called prenatal depression .

I've never heard of this disease, but it does sound similar.

"Brandon, come and sit for a while, I'm dizzy from turning around." Andrew yelled while sitting on the sofa in the living room, and he didn't know how he saw Bran in the corridor from the living room. boarded the colonel.

"Why is there no sound at all inside? What's the matter?" Colonel Brandon seemed not to have heard what Andrew said just now.

"You'll be like this if she doesn't call you. If she calls you, you have to rush in..." Andrew rolled his eyes and muttered.

"Okay, shut up." Philip yelled at Andrew, with a calm and calm look on his face, but his knuckles holding the sofa were white.

"Your brother was also nervous when I gave birth to Hannah. You don't need to persuade him." Elena finished the last two mouthfuls of chicken soup, and then rubbed her belly in satisfaction. The food here is delicious.I heard that this chicken soup uses a lot of oriental medicinal materials, which is very nourishing, and I will have to ask for the prescription when I go back next time.Thinking of this, she became worried again. It has been more than 4 hours since Hathaway went in and there is still no sound at all, so it's not really difficult to deliver, right?

Since the doctor diagnosed her two months pregnant last month, she has been very worried about this matter. After all, she is already in her 30s, and her body is far inferior to that of a young girl. Pregnancy at this age is very risky. I hope she It will be smoother when you are born.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, there was still no news from the delivery room. London in November was already cold. Elena felt chills all over after sitting in the living room for five hours, but Colonel Brandon, who was in the corridor, was in a hurry. sweating a lot.

At this time, Mr. Green came out of the delivery room. He was not young, so he looked very tired, and everyone surrounded him in panic.

Colonel Brandon's face was extremely pale, his eyes were blank and his expression was empty, "Mr. Brandon, your lady's condition is not very good, so I can only have a caesarean section." Caesarean section... Caesarean section... this... The voice kept echoing in his ears, which reminded him that whenever he forced her to take supplements during Hathaway's pregnancy, she would tell her not to take too much, otherwise if the fetus was too big and difficult to deliver, she would have to have a caesarean section.

In this era, the medical level is not developed, and there are no examples of pregnant women surviving a caesarean section. Therefore, a caesarean section means death for pregnant women, and we should not take chances.

"No, no... no... no!" Colonel Brandon yelled and rushed into the delivery room.

Everyone stared blankly at the door that was still flapping, "What's wrong with him?" Mr. Green looked surprised.

"Cough..." Philip coughed embarrassingly, scolding this worthless guy in his heart, wondering how he came back from the battlefield alive. "He may be too nervous, don't worry about him, what's going on inside?" The tone of the voice was a little nervous.

"Congratulations, the fetus' head has come out, I believe it will be over soon. Mrs. Brandon is in good condition, the fetal position is very upright, and the fetus is not too big, it is only slow because of the first child." Mr. Green's face There was a smile on his face, in fact, he had been worried that Hathaway would have a heart attack, but the situation was very good, and the delivery was smooth, so what he was worried about did not happen.

The expression on Philip's face stretched out, and the joy in his heart could not be expressed, "Mr. Green, I'm very sorry for delaying your time all night."

"Needless to say, your father and I are old acquaintances, and my diagnosis back then caused a lot of trouble for you and your sister. I am obliged to come and see my patient. Although my diagnosis has been proven wrong Yes, but I feel very happy, and I believe it will be the same if your father is still alive." Mr. Green yawned, after all, he is not young, and he is tired after being invited here in the middle of the night.

"I'll prepare the carriage to take you home now." Philip changed back to the reserved and polite nobleman, and ordered the servant to prepare the carriage.

When Colonel Brandon broke in, his wife was lying on the bed weakly, her legs were bloody, her clothes were soaked in sweat, her golden hair was sticking to her forehead and neck, Hathaway In his eyes, any time is beautiful, and he has never seen her in such distress.

"Sir, please get out, this is not the place for you to come in!" The older nurse stepped forward and wanted to drive Colonel Brandon out, which would affect the mood of the mothers and their work.

Colonel Brandon ignored him completely. He pushed the nurse away and rushed to the bedside. The expression on his face was more painful than that of a person who gave birth, "My dear, I am here! Don't worry, I will never let them have a caesarean section Yes! I can't live without you..."

Hathaway and the nurses: ==

Hathaway gritted her teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "Get out!"

"No! I must be by your side at this time!"

Hathaway: "..."

Nurses: -_-|||

Hathaway couldn't laugh or cry, although Colonel Brandon's behavior moved her very much, but it was really embarrassing, right?If it wasn't for her being so painful that she couldn't move, she would have to drive him out.

The nurses and midwives have seen all kinds of people in the hospital, and quickly adjusted their emotions to continue to guide the mother, "Mrs. Brandon, push hard, push hard, the head has come out, try hard!"

Hathaway grabbed the bed sheet hard, her neck was stuck, and her lips were bitten by her, but as long as she tried a little bit harder...

"It's out! It's out! Mrs. Brandon! The baby is out!" The midwife quickly wiped the baby with the muslin cloth prepared on the side, and patted the baby's back skillfully, "Congratulations, Mr. Brandon , Mrs Brandon, it's a boy."

Hathaway breathed a sigh of relief, and her whole body relaxed. She looked at the baby in the nurse's hands with all her strength, well, this is her blood, the blood she shares with Colonel Brandon, it's great, it's really good to be alive good.

Colonel Brandon stretched his neck and looked at the child in the nurse's arms like a creature. It looked like a skinny red monkey. Is this really his and Hathaway's child?He quickly turned his head back, focusing on his wife again, "I will never let you have children again, I promise." The eye circles were still red.

Hathaway smiled slightly and said nothing, just like she did when she decided to conceive.She glanced at him lightly, and soon fell asleep.

Three years later

Same place, same scene, same people.

Colonel Brandon was walking around anxiously outside the delivery room again. This time, no one tried to persuade him. Everyone knew that it was a thankless effort.

"Why is there no sound at all! What's going on inside?" Even if no one persuaded him, Colonel Brandon still wanted to say.

"Dad, you have asked this question more than ten times." The boy sitting on Philip's right hand licked the strawberry ice cream in his hand vigorously, and gave his father a little bit of attention very generously.

The boy sitting on Philip's left was also immersed in licking the blueberry ice cream in his hand, and nodded earnestly with half understanding.

Philip secretly laughed in his heart for a while, wishing to applaud his nephew loudly. "Blake, go to bed after eating." Turning his head, he looked at his two-year-old son with a serious face.

Little Mr. Black pouted his red lips that were frozen by ice cream, and looked at Philip pitifully with those big ice blue eyes inherited from his father, which were moist and shining with starlight.

But it's clear that his father is totally out of it and blind to his stars.

On the other hand, Andrew couldn't stand it anymore, "Philip, Black is also worried about his aunt, let him stay here." Little Mr. Black nodded desperately, the hair on his forehead fluttered with his movements. .

Philip looked at his son for a while, and just when Blake Jr. thought he was about to achieve his goal, Philip ruthlessly crushed his hope, "No, boys should develop the habit of self-discipline since childhood, and go to bed right away."

Little Blake pursed his lips, his ice-blue eyes were filled with tears, but they didn't flow out. He knew it was useless and would make his father more angry and harsher. He stood up dejectedly, and turned to his room go.He knew his father didn't love him at all. If only Mr. Brandon had been his father, alas!

Little Mr. Edward on the other side of Philip also put down the ice cream in his hand, and wiped his mouth politely with a napkin, "Uncle, I'll sleep with Black today."

Philip nodded kindly to his nephew, looking at little Edward, how sensible he is! "Okay, you go, watch your cousin order."

Little Mr. Edward jumped off the sofa with his squat legs, bowed to Philip and Andrew like a grown-up, and went after Blake.He also thought that his uncle treated him the most kindly, if only Philip were his father, alas!

On the other hand, because Hathaway's delivery this time was much safer than the previous one, Philip did not invite Mr. Green to come. Naturally, no one would come out of the delivery room early at this time.

But this didn't stop Colonel Brandon's decision to break into the delivery room. This time, he couldn't bear it anymore four hours after Hathaway entered the delivery room, and broke in again desperately.

This time they hired the same midwife as three years ago, so they were not surprised by this situation. After seeing Mr. Brandon coming in, only the elderly nurse stopped him symbolically and was pushed away. After opening, they continued their work just now.

Well, maybe Hathaway is the only one here who is still struggling to hope that her husband can go out, but she is destined to be disappointed again.

"Honey! Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Colonel Brandon said affectionately.

Hathaway: (#‵′)

She could only work harder, hoping that the child would come out as soon as possible.After less than half an hour, the nurses finally heard shouting again: "Mrs. Brandon, push hard, push hard, you can already see the child's head!"

Mr. Brandon has always been deaf to the words of the nurses, and he is still talking sweet words to his wife, as if there is no chance if he doesn't talk now.

After another wave of tearing pain, Hathaway finally felt something slip out of her body.

After the midwife cleaned up the baby, she congratulated the Brandon couple again, "Congratulations, Mrs. Brandon, Mr. Brandon, you are a little princess."

This time the labor was much less labor-saving than the last time, and Hathaway was also more energetic. She looked at her daughter with the hands of the nurse, um... the same as last time, and the newborn baby was really wrinkled .

"Honey, our daughter! We have a daughter! Oh my God, look at her little hands, how cute! And her little head, so small! This is so sweet! We have a daughter!" Brandon The colonel watched his daughter yelling in surprise, and seemed to have completely forgotten what he said about the skinny monkey when his son was born last time.

After he was happy for a while, he turned his attention to his wife. No matter how cute the daughter is, the wife is the most important thing. "Honey, I swear, I will never let you have children again!"

Hathaway looked at him and smiled silently, like she decided to get pregnant again.

Colonel Brandon just felt a chill down his spine, where did he seem to have seen this scene before?
