"What? Twins?" When Cai Jingyun went to Xia's house to pick up Xiaosan, he was a little dizzy when he heard the news.

Xiaosan sat in front of the brazier and bit the pickled radish sticks in his hands. When he heard the news, he was very calm.After all, in the previous life, twins were everywhere, even triplets and quadruplets.In his opinion, one is also a child, and two are also a child. It is just right to put them together, to save one time of suffering, and to have an extra baby...

"Will that be dangerous?" Cai Jingyun frowned. He had only heard about twins. Among the people he met, there was no such thing as twins.For this unexpected thing, he felt a little inexplicably nervous.

"I heard from Uncle Wuhua that there may be a premature birth, but this kind of thing is rare, and he is not sure! I think it's better to go to the temple tomorrow to see the gods!" Of course, Liansheng also had a look on his face. Feeling nervous, seeing Xiao San who was leisurely eating radish sticks beside him, he couldn't help but stare.This kid is about to become a father, why is he still so heartless?Looking really anxious to death!

"Hey~ I said you don't have to worry about that, okay! Aren't they twins? It's okay!" Xiaosan saw that the family members were nervous like ants on a pot, and waved her hand to comfort everyone.As a result, everyone in the family stared at him.

Xiaosan's stomach is a pair of twins, which explains why his stomach is so big after only five months.In this world, twins are rare. Even the old doctor in the village has been practicing medicine for 50 to [-] years, and he has only seen three or two cases.So it's no wonder that the Xia family and Cai Jingyun are so careful with Xiaosan, after all, giving birth to a child is a very dangerous thing, and if one is not careful, one body and two lives may be lost.If something happens to Xiaosan, there will be an extra life.

Liansheng went to the temple the next day to inquire once, and it was revealed that the father and son were safe, which made everyone feel a little more nervous.However, in order to take care of Xiaosan's special situation, Liansheng packed up and lived in the bamboo courtyard nearby to take care of Xiaosan. No matter how well outsiders take care of Xiaosan, he still doesn't feel at ease, and must keep an eye on Xiaosan by himself.

Xiaosan was closely watched from morning to night all day long, everyone was afraid that something might happen to him, and the whole bamboo courtyard was tense.Cai Jingyun originally wanted to buy two more servants to take care of Xiaosan, but Xiaosan got angry and pushed them away. Cai Jingyun had to ask everyone in the yard to work harder, saying that if they took good care of Xiaosan, they would all be rewarded.

These days, Xiaosan really had enough, he was kicked by the child in his belly, and these people were clamoring to find a doctor.If two more people looked at him, he was afraid that he would go crazy.Of course, Cai Jingyun was not allowed to hire another servant.

This year's Chinese New Year festival is the most boring one for Xiaosan.The boring little San doesn't even want to mention it.

Because he can't move here, he can't move anywhere, everyone in the family is very busy, but he is not allowed to intervene in setting dishes and so on.Even if you look for a book to read, you can't read it for too long. Either help him go for a slow walk, or send him to bed.

In the end, Xiao San was very angry and said that if everyone was so neurotic again, he would go on a hunger strike!Although it was just angry words, it finally calmed everyone down.Coincidentally, the old doctor was also invited back and forth by them, and he was exhausted enough, so he helped Xiaosan and said a few words.I think that it is also beneficial to the production to let the juniors do activities appropriately.Cai Jingyun had no choice but to agree after listening, and asked Xiao San to do what he could.For example, serving a bowl for dinner, doing needlework or something...

If Xiaosan were to say it, he could only say that his current life is too capitalized and too corrupt.He really stretched out his hands and opened his mouth, if he met a lazy person, he might be very happy, but Xiaosan is not that type, he feels uncomfortable and uncomfortable all over his body when he is waited on like this. .For this reason, he and Cai Jingyun even had a lot of quarrels.

As the number of months of pregnancy increased, the mistress felt more and more hard.Due to the pressure of the fetus, he sometimes feels difficulty in breathing, and his bones all over his body are sore from time to time, the most obvious is the waist. Sometimes he can't stand up straight after lying down for a long time.When I wake up in the morning, I often suffer from toothache. If I stand for a long time, my feet will become swollen, and when I press my hands, there will be a small pit.

As a result, Xiaosan's temper became more and more erratic, and sometimes she would get angry at Cai Jingyun because she was managed to be impatient.Or he slept too much during the day and couldn't sleep at night, kicking Cai Jingyun out of bed to help him get something to eat.Because of various physical discomforts, he will show his teeth and claws at Cai Jingyun, and show off at any time for no reason at all.

Not long after the Chinese New Year, the appearance of the couple changed significantly.As Xiaosan became fatter and fatter, Cai Jingyun became thinner and thinner. His hard-lined face and slender figure made him look absolutely not like a 20-year-old.After being tossed about by the mistress every now and then, he became more mature super fast.

Liansheng lived in the bamboo courtyard, and he saw everything about this young couple.Cai Jingyun's performance finally reassured him, this person is sincere to Xiaosan!He was finally able to feel at ease and handed Xiaosan into his hands!

After the first lunar month, there is an increasingly warm atmosphere between the sky and the earth, and the vegetation begins to sprout small buds.According to Cai Jingyun, he transferred all the commercial shops in Fuzhou City to Nanhe Town, and he planned to buy land with the extra funds.He was worried about Xiao San's situation, so he slowed down his business plan. For the time being, he only sent Uncle Tian to help him check the market conditions in various places, while he himself took care of the business in Nanhe Town.

Since she was pregnant, Xiaosan felt that her brain was even more difficult to use.Sometimes Cai Jingyun would accompany him to work, and tell him something by the way, but he was confused. He only knew that Cai Jingyun used to be a wholesaler, but now he wanted to become a supplier.Xiaosan also knew that he was not a god, and there was no need to pretend to understand some things, and he had no intention of getting involved in Cai Jingyun's business.Now he is just trying his best to calm himself down and wait for the delivery. He keeps thinking in his heart that after this period of time is over, life will be easier!

From the beginning of the year, the court of Nanqing Kingdom issued notices to every township and village, saying that they wanted to encourage Nongsang.It is even stipulated that each household of the villagers must try their best to raise pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks, and plant a number of fruit trees.Also for this reason, Cai Jingyun helped Xiaosan buy some fresh and rare fruit seedlings and saplings in Nanqing, such as yellow apricot, chestnut and cherry.

It is impossible for Xiaosan with a big belly to cultivate the land with a hoe, so she has to think about other things, such as using her mouth to ask someone to help plant fruit and flower trees in the backyard.

When the calamus was first born, Xiaosan asked the servants at home to help move some calamus to the side of the small pond. This kind of thing can not only be used as spices but also kill mosquitoes. The stems and leaves can also be used as medicine. It is the most ornamental and practical. One of the representatives of the best plants, of course the mistress likes it, and if she likes it, she will plant it naturally.

When calamus grows, it is also the time when farmers start preparing to grow grain.At this time, Xiao San's belly was a bit scary, and Tong Lu even came up with a bad idea, asking Xiao San to go on a diet, so that the child in her belly would not grow too big.His words naturally made Butler Tong scold him bloody.

In February, Xiaosan was eight months pregnant.The growing abdomen made him often unable to breathe, and the cramps and pain in his legs existed every day. At night, because of the stomach, he could only sleep on the left or right side, and he finally fell asleep , The child can make him sleepless with just one kick.There are also frequent urination, flatulence, general fatigue and so on.From Xiaosan's point of view, being terminally ill is nothing more than that...

To be honest, the mistress who is being a father-to-be is very hard.After going through all kinds of pain, Xiaosan was finally willing to follow Liansheng's guidance and began to study the precautions during pregnancy seriously, such as abdominal breathing, or learning to calm the baby in the stomach by stroking and talking.He even attended a special lecture by Lian Sheng about what it takes to go through childbirth.Although this topic made Xiao San extremely embarrassed, at least he had heard something with a blushing face.

When the spring breeze blows, it is the best time to fall asleep.On a spring afternoon, Xiao San accompanied Cai Jingyun to work at home, while he read some idle books. After a while, Xiao San was blown drowsy by the spring breeze.Cai Jingyun saw Xiaosan yawned several times in a row, so he stopped what he was doing and helped Xiaosan back to bed.

When Xiaosan was lying down, she was kicked several times by the child in her stomach, and all sleepiness disappeared immediately.He just lay lazily on the bed and listened to the chirping of the birds outside the wooden window.Cai Jingyun also slept on the side, rubbing the sides of Xiao San's waist, and the comfortable Xiao San hummed like a little pig.

"Cai Jingyun, why can you bear my unreasonable troubles?" Xiaosan felt a little regretful about her inexplicable actions when she thought of these times.His nature was not like this, but he was a little scared and panicked because of the change in his body.In fact, every time he gets angry and makes trouble for no reason, he himself regrets it a little, but sometimes when the anger comes up, he really can't control it.

Cai Jingyun continued to pinch Xiaosan's waist without speaking, he was actually quite happy to see this kind of unreasonable trouble.He never expected the little three to be obedient, and he didn't want that kind of complete, silent attachment.He is very happy to see that Xiao San can fully let go of his emotions on him!The more he lives together, the more he has this experience.

"Withdraw from Fuzhou city and buy land in the countryside. You really plan to be a landlord! Do you want to stay in this kind of country for the rest of your life?" Xiao San's tone was not very specific, as if he was asking casually.

"Well, that's pretty good!" This is the truth. Compared with the days in Cai's house, life is much better now!Although looking at Xiaosan is a little frightening recently, it is also a willing burden!He quite enjoyed this behavior of taking care of Xiaosan, wishing he could hold Xiaosan in his hand and put it in his pocket all day long.

Xiaosan then said a few more words, all of which were trivial matters at home.Maybe it was comforted by being rubbed by Cai Jingyun, coupled with the spring breeze, he yawned and became confused after a while.

Because the old doctor said that twins are more likely to be born prematurely.So after Xiaosan was eight months pregnant, everyone was nervous every day. They asked Xiaosan if she was not feeling well during three meals a day.

The children's clothes had already been prepared, most of them were made by Liansheng and Xinhe, and some were Xiao Xiali's old clothes, anyway, Xiaosan didn't sew any of them.Under the spring sun, Liansheng was busy washing clothes, diapers and drying them again.Little San also took Xiao Si and Xiao Xia Li with him, knowing that it would be troublesome to prepare children's things, but he had to be so careful.

Cai Jingyun didn't understand these things at all, and he couldn't understand why Xiaosan had only two children in her belly, so why did she have to expose a yard of diapers.

By mid-March, Xiaosan had to ask Cai Jingyun to turn over in bed.

At a certain dawn when the sky was slightly bright, Xiao San was awakened by bouts of abdominal pain.His stomach was tense and stiff from the pain, and he cried out on the spot in fright.Cai Jingyun had to be busy with business in the business during the day, and took care of Xiaosan at night. At that time, he was sleeping soundly, but when he was called by Xiaosan, he immediately woke up again.There is no way, Xiaosan is now at a critical moment, and she can't be careless at all.

"It seems...it's about to come out..." Xiaosan sat on the bed with her stomach in her arms. After a few moments of pain, he finally calmed down.That's right, whether it's good or bad depends on the present!If they had come out sooner, he would have suffered less.Anyway, a nine-month-old child would be easy to feed as long as he came out alive.

On the contrary, when Cai Jingyun heard this, he tossed off the quilt and became a little at a loss.He might want to comfort Xiaosan, but his lips trembled slightly, and it was a little awkward to speak.

"My dad said, there is still a period of time from the stomachache to the baby coming out, don't worry, it's just dawn, help me wake up dad!" Calmly ordered Cai Jingyun.

"Okay!" Cai Jingyun ran out of the house from the bed without any clothes or shoes on hearing this, Xiaosan was stunned.

Then there was another dingling noise outside the house, followed by a panic of soldiers and horses.

When Xiaosan's abdominal pain started again, Cai Jingyun came into the room with bare feet, with a rare panic on his face.

As soon as Liansheng entered the room, when he saw Cai Jingyun wandering around the room like a headless chicken, he waved his hand and told him to go out and find someone.Cai Jingyun was anxious and flustered, and he didn't know who Liansheng asked him to go to.After leaving the house, he wandered around outside the house.

Fortunately, Uncle Jing also came at this time, first went into the room to ask, and then calmly directed the awakened people.Wang Wu went down the mountain in a carriage to find the old doctor in the village and the uncle who knew how to deliver babies.The two unmarried brothers were directed to boil water in the kitchen, and the more the better.For the rest, Wang Si and Chen Daniu were in charge of cooking, and the uncle housekeeper was in charge of preparing the things for the children after they were born.Even Uncle Wang, who took care of the yard, sent a task to find some mugwort leaves to make mugwort water.

Cai Jingyun followed Uncle Jing and the others into the house because he was worried about Xiaosan.Seeing that Xiaosan was in pain, her face was pale and her whole body was tense, and she couldn't help but also broke out in a cold sweat as her face turned pale.He held Xiaosan's hand tremblingly, and finally asked Xiaosan to comfort him: "Don't be afraid! Isn't it just having a baby? It's no big deal! You see, my dad has given birth four times, and nothing happened. !"

Cai Jingyun smiled stiffly with the corners of his mouth pulled, still trembling uncontrollably.

By the time the old doctor and the midwife arrived, the sky was already fully lit.One felt the pulse, the other touched the belly, and then said in unison that Cai Jingyun's legs were going weak.

The doctor and the midwife uncle all came, and Cai Jingyun was driven outside the house.The wooden door closed in front of him with a bang, and Cai Jingyun faintly heard Xiaosan screaming in pain in the room.

Not long after, several members of the Xia family also rushed over. Little Xia Li still didn't know anything, and fell asleep sweetly in the stone's arms. "What's going on? Isn't it time yet?"

Cai Jingyun was so anxious that his mouth was foaming, and he couldn't answer anything at the moment, so he just wandered outside the house, and from time to time he would lie on the crack of the door and look into the house.In fact, you can't see anything, everyone stays in the back room.

As soon as Xin He came over, he went into the house to help, leaving a few big men staring outside the door.

From dawn to lunch, apart from the whispers of the people in the room, there was only the occasional cry of the mistress, which made Cai Jingyun's heart tug together.

"Don't worry! It's useless for us men to be anxious about having a baby!" Seeing Cai Jingyun's flustered look, Shitou couldn't help comforting him, but his words of comfort were not very good.It didn't have any effect on Cai Jingyun, Cai Jingyun still looked nervous after comforting him.

Cai Jingyun couldn't eat enough for lunch, and he didn't even look at the food brought by Tong Lu before he was brought down again.

When it was Shen Shi, the mistress began to yell more and more frequently in the room, and Xinhe began to bring hot water inside and outside the house, a basin of clear water went in, and a basin of blood came out, which made Cai Jingyun almost collapse.

When Xinhe opened the door to change the water, Cai Jingyun rushed in.After such a long time, he was really a little scared, and he was trembling with fear.When rushing to the back room, everyone in the room was also very nervous, and their hearts couldn't help but shrink.

At this time, Xiaosan's head was covered with sweat, strands of hair were sticking to her head and face, her face and lips were all pale.Because of the severe pain, he also bit out several bloody wounds on his mouth.

Xiaosan was sleeping on her back on the bed, with a quilt or something under her body, slightly raising her upper body, with her legs propped there weakly, and a large area of ​​bright red blood was under her body.

"What's going on?!" Cai Jingyun yelled in the room, anxiously wanting to hug Xiao San in his arms.But Lian Sheng hurriedly pulled him back.

"...Some...bleeding..." Xin He was also pale, and he replied softly standing behind him.

"We have already asked the master to suck the ginseng slices. The old doctors are here, so we will deal with it naturally. The master should wait outside the house!" Uncle Jing also persuaded Cai Jingyun, wanting to drag Cai Jingyun out of the house.

"Cai Jingyun...I'm in so much pain!" Xiaosan opened her eyes dizzily, and spoke softly to Cai Jingyun.

Cai Jingyun shook off Uncle Jing and walked to the bed, ignoring Liansheng's obstruction, gently hugged Xiaosan's head, and kissed a few times: "Don't be afraid, I'm right here! We're all here to accompany you! Hold on, it will be fine in a while! Do you hear me?"

"Hmm..." The mistress in her arms seemed to have no strength to nod, and her voice was as thin as a kitten.

Seeing Xiao San's appearance, other people in the room couldn't help but inhale.

"Master Cai, come here." The old doctor greeted Cai Jingyun and walked outside the house.

"At this point, I dare not hide it. Your husband is having a difficult delivery! The child must come out as soon as possible, but I have to ask, in case something happens, do you want to protect the child or the adult?"

"What do you mean? Is mistress dangerous? What is protecting adults and children?" Cai Jingyun's face faded, and his face became as pale as mistress.

The old doctor said again with a serious face: "In case something happens, will you protect the adults or the children!"

"My lord!" Cai Jingyun turned and went back to the back room after finishing speaking.Of course it's Mr. Bao, how could he endure the accident of the third child?

After the old doctor returned to the back room, he whispered a few words to the uncle who delivered the baby. After speaking, the two immediately got busy.Cai Jingyun refused to go out again, holding Xiaosan's hand with one hand, and the fingers of the two equally pale and cold hands were tightly intertwined.

The uncle who delivered the baby was checking Xiaosan's birth canal, while the old doctor was sticking needles in Xiaosan's body. The shiny silver needles stuck in Xiaosan's body. Xiaosan immediately cried out in pain, her stomach was tight and bulging, and the blue meridians were clear visible.

"Master Cai, we will help your husband with some strength, but this may hurt the child or even the fetus. It is possible that after this time, it will be difficult for your husband to conceive. Have you considered it clearly?" the old man The doctor rolled up his sleeves and explained to Cai Jingyun in a heavy tone.

"I want Xiao San to live well, as long as he can live well! Nothing else matters!" Cai Jingyun said through gritted teeth.

"...Don't,...don't hurt...the child..." Although it was awkward, it was impossible for Xiaosan to have no feelings for the child conceived in his own body, so he naturally shouldn't let him give up the child.

"I don't want you to have an accident! I just want you to stay with me! Do you hear me!" Cai Jingyun hugged Xiao San's head, his eyes were red, and his growling voice was like a wounded beast.

Seeing the scene, the old doctor didn't say much. He stood beside Xiao San, fisted and pushed hard on Xiao San's stomach, and the midwife uncle under him was also busy doing something with a white cloth.

In her previous life, Xiao San heard that human pain is divided into twelve levels in medicine, and childbirth is the highest level of all pain. It is a severe pain that men cannot imagine and cannot understand.But now, Xiao San knows this pain, like countless time bombs are pressed in his body, one after another explodes, and even bombs in one piece at the end, he just feels that if this continues, he will be out of his wits .

He had long lost his strength, the old doctor's fists pressed against his stomach and pushed harder and harder, Xiaosan felt that the internal organs were pushed out of position, and they were mixed together to form an unbearable pain!

When I was in a daze, I heard someone shouting excitedly and came out...

Then there was the cry of a child.

Not long after, someone shouted excitedly, the second...

When she heard the second weak cry, Xiaosan's strong body couldn't take it anymore and passed out.
