My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

Dingkanghou Mansion was in chaos, and Chang'an's courtyard was also the first time that so many servants gathered. Some brought hot water, some took towels, and none of these servants, whether maids or servants, were dressed neatly.

At this time, Chang Qi and Chang Qi each carried a midwife and ran directly into Chang An's room. Chang An was in the room at this time, wiping Gu Li's sweat with his sleeves.

"Sir, the midwife is here."

Chang An turned around at this time and saw the two experienced midwives hired by the family were still lying on the backs of Chang Qi and Chang Qi.

"Hurry, you two!"

Chang An then moved aside to make room for the two midwives. The two midwives came forward and looked at Gu Li. Midwife Qin said, "It's time to give birth. Hurry up and get some hot water and towels. The more the better."

"Hot water! Towel!"

Chang An shouted, then continued to look at Gu Li, and said softly and comfortingly: "It's okay, Mother Gu, it's okay."

"It hurts..." Gu Li grabbed Chang An's hand at this time, and Chang An was immediately distressed, "It hurts so much..."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm here."

Chang An wiped the sweat off Gu Li's face. At this time, another midwife, Yang Wenpo, said, "Marquis Dingkang, please go out first and leave a few maids with better hands and feet for me."

"it is good."

Chang An nodded immediately, turned around, and found that his servants and maids were all at the door, looking over. When they heard that someone had to stay to help, several maids immediately stood up, including Zhen'er. They all said:

"My Lord, I can!"

Chang An nodded at this time, and then he felt himself being helped up and pushed out.

Then, Qin Wenpo's voice came from behind, saying, "Marquis Dingkang, don't be anxious. Please wait outside for a while."

Chang An was pushed to the door, and then he saw Yang Wenpo saying to the maids who volunteered, "You guys, I will tell you what to do later, wash your hands and wait in the house."

Chang An saw that he was about to be pushed out, and he became anxious and said, "I will accompany Gu Niang, I...I...I will take care of her."

Yang Wenpo then advised: "Marquis Dingkang, please go out and wait. You are not allowed to watch when the lady is giving birth."

"I... She is my wife, I..."

Qin Wenpo said to Chang An, "Marquis Dingkang, don't be anxious. Wait outside for now and don't delay. We still need to wash Madam, otherwise it will be difficult to give birth."

As Chang An said this, he didn't even see Gu Li's face before the door was closed.

Chang An was standing at the door with a crack in front of him. He looked a little lost and didn't know what to do. Huaiqin came forward and said softly:

"Son."

This shout brought Chang An back to his senses. He sniffed, then turned around and looked at his servants. He was stunned for a moment, but after seeing their expressions, he said:

"You guys go back and rest. I'm sorry to disturb your rest."

"My lord, let's not go back." At this time, a maid standing in the front said.

"Yes, my lord, your lady is about to give birth, and we are afraid that we will waste so much of your monthly salary, so we wanted to come and see if there is anything we can do to help you." said another person.

"My Lord, even if we can't help, maybe we can stay with Madam outside the house. If anything happens, you can send us."

"Yes, my Lord, please don't let us leave. We will stay here with you, my Lord."

"..."

Chang An listened to the servants talking to each other, and his heart was filled with indescribable feelings. He looked at the servants, and finally waved his hand and said, "It's cold at night, you should go back and put on your clothes, don't catch a cold."

The servants left in a hurry, and now only Chang'an and Huaiqin were left in the yard. Chang'an went to the pavilion and sat down. Huaiqin tentatively called out to Qi:

"Son."

"You should also put on your clothes." Chang An leaned against the table nervously, his eyes fixed on the door.

"what--"

Hearing Gu Li's cry of pain coming from the room, Chang An's legs suddenly softened and he almost fell off the stone bench. Fortunately, Chang Qi and Huai Qin supported him. Seeing Chang An like this, Huai Qin said:

"Let's wait until everyone at home comes back before Huaiqin changes her clothes."

Chang An didn't say anything, just stared at the door. Huaiqin said to Chang Qi and Chang Qi, "You should go change your clothes first, I'll just look after the young master here."

Chang Qi shook his head and gently touched Chang Qi, and the latter left.

Soon, the servants who had gone back to change clothes appeared in the yard again. When they saw Chang'an's nervous look, two of them left. Seeing someone coming back, Huaiqin called them over and asked them to look after Chang'an while she went to change clothes.

Chang An stared and stared, with an expression as if he was about to burst into tears without any anger.

The servants seemed to have never seen their usually calm Marquis have such an uncalm side. At this time, a maid holding tea said softly, "Marquis."

But Chang An did not respond, and the maid called out again: "Lord?"

"Young Master, someone is calling you." Chang Qi called Chang An at this time, and he came back to his senses.

"what happened?"

"Young master, drink some tea to moisten your throat and calm your mind." At this time, the maid who served tea said, then carefully placed the tea on the table and poured a cup for Chang An.

Chang An took the cup and was about to take a sip when he heard another scream of pain from inside the room. He clenched his hands nervously, and then heard the sound of the porcelain cup breaking and porcelain pieces falling and shattering.

Huaiqin happened to come back at this time. Seeing this scene, she hurried forward and wiped Chang'an's face. At this time, Changqi also said, "The young master is injured, didn't the two imperial doctors come?"

"I'm coming."

"what happened?"

Ma Huai and Yang Mo didn't know where they came from at this time. Huaiqin said, "The young master's hand is broken, can you help take a look?"

"It's okay, just my fingers are cut." Chang An shook his head and spread out his hands. It was just five fingers that were cut, and he just wiped them on his clothes to deal with it.

Huaiqin simply found a wet towel and stuffed it into Chang'an's hand. Not only could it keep the wound clean, but it would also prevent him from getting too nervous and causing his fingers to pierce his palm.

......

Chang'an seemed to have been maintaining this posture all the time. Some of the servants in the house were still awake, while others were sitting in the yard, squeezing each other to sleep.

Chang Qi had already changed her clothes and stood beside Chang An without moving. She looked up at the sky, which was already slightly blue, a sign of sunrise.

suddenly--

"Whoa!"

Although the cry was not loud, everyone stood up, including those who were sleeping on the ground. All the people who had been waiting here all night were excited and happy.

Chang An wanted to go in directly and see what was going on inside, but he heard:

"There's one more! There's one more!"

So Chang An could only stop at the steps at the door.

"Madam, Madam, push harder! Take a deep breath, take a deep breath..."

"Sanniang, try harder, there is one more!"

Chang An was looking at the door very nervously, as if he wanted to see through the door and see what was going on inside. After standing there for an unknown amount of time, another cry was heard from the room:

"Whoa!"

I don’t know if it’s because I’m closer to the door, but this sound seems louder.

"Come out, come out!"

At this time, the door opened, and two midwives stood at the door, each holding a child. Seeing Chang An standing outside the door, they hurriedly congratulated him, "Congratulations to Marquis Dingkang, congratulations to Marquis Dingkang."

"Are they twins? Or one..."

Chang An saw the door open at this time, and without hearing what the two midwives said, he just rushed straight in, leaving the two midwives a little stunned.

At this time, Gu Li was lying on the bed, and the maids who stayed behind were cleaning her exposed body. When they saw Gu Li lying on the bed with a pale face, they could no longer restrain themselves and almost rushed to Gu Li. Even the maid who was wiping Gu Li's body was startled.

"Mother Gu, Mother Gu!"

Gu Li slightly opened his eyes at this time and responded weakly: "Chang Lang."

Hearing this response, Chang An couldn't hold back any longer, tears welled up from his eyes like a dam bursting. He took Gu Li's hand, and it was the first time he felt her hand was so slender.

"Why are you crying, Chang Lang? We already have Xiaoguai... and Erguai."

Chang An was already sobbing and could only squeeze out a hoarse voice: "It... hurts a lot, right?"

"Don't worry, Chang Lang, it doesn't hurt anymore." Gu Li looked at Chang An crying, and his own tears began to well up in his eyes.

"It hurts..." Chang An held Gu Li's hand tightly, afraid that he would lose it.

"I'm sorry..." Chang An choked up again and said, "Mother Gu, it must be painful. I'm sorry."

Gu Li gently shook Chang An's hand and said, "It's okay. It doesn't hurt anymore. Please don't cry, Chang Lang."

The wife gave the order, and Chang An quickly wiped the tears from his face and sniffed his nose. Gu Li smiled and said, "Chang Lang, go see Xiaoguai and Erguai."

Chang An turned his head stiffly at this time. At this time, Qin Wenpo and Yang Wenpo each held a child in their arms.

"Congratulations, Marquis Dingkang, it's twins."

"Twins...twins?"

Chang An then gently opened the swaddling clothes and looked at the children inside. There were two identical children inside. Then the midwife said:

"The one who came out first was the elder sister, and the one who came out later was the younger brother."
