Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly found a thin blanket to cover Xiaoyun's body and said to Aunt Zhang:

"Aunt Zhang, human life is at stake. Don't worry about the red tape at this time. Go and ask Uncle Ning to come in!"

Aunt Zhang was also frightened, and hurried out to the courtyard and shouted:

"Uncle Ning, come in and take a look, something happened to Xiaoyun!"

Zhang Tianhe hurriedly stepped into the room after hearing this. He saw that his wife's face was pale, her hair was soaked with sweat, and there was a faint trace of blood under the thin quilt. He felt cold in his heart and ran to Xiaoyun's bed, crying:

"Xiao Yun, what's wrong with you? I don't want the baby anymore. Wake up, I beg you to wake up. Xiao Yun, I was wrong. I shouldn't have let you have a baby. I only want you. Wake up!"

Seeing his confused look, Jiang Yuwei stepped forward, grabbed his chin, slapped him hard in the face and said angrily:

"Xiao Yun just fainted. If you continue to delay her treatment, she will die! Be quiet! Let Uncle Ning take a look at her!"

Zhang Tianhe seemed to be awakened by Jiang Yuwei's slap. He quickly stood up and made room for Ning Bo to go forward to check the situation.

Ning Bo frowned and observed Xiaoyun's complexion, then took out her hand and began to take her pulse. After a moment, he took out a silver needle and pierced the tips of Xiaoyun's two ears directly to let the blood out, and then used needles to prick the Shixuan acupoints on the tips of her ten fingers.

After these few injections, Xiaoyun suddenly opened her eyes, as if she had finally let out the breath she had been holding for a long time, and breathed in big gulps. Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly said:

"Uncle Ning, please go out first. I'll take care of this place."

Then he glanced at Zhang Tianhe who looked excited and shouted:

"Zhang Tianhe, you get out too!"

After the two men left, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly lifted the thin blanket. At this time, the child's face was already blue and purple. Jiang Yuwei knew that if she didn't give birth, the child would be suffocated to death, so she shouted:

"Xiao Yun! Keep exhaling, push harder, faster! Whether your child can survive depends on you!"

After hearing this, Xiaoyun did not dare to delay and began to breathe hard with all her strength. She did not dare to stop for a moment. She was afraid that her child would die in vain because of her incompetence. Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei increased the strength of massaging Xiaoyun's belly.

Just when both of them were about to be exhausted, a loud cry was heard:

"Woooooooo..."

At this time, Zhang Guang also rushed over with Sun Wenpo. Both of them were sweating. After hearing the loud crying, Sun Wenpo finally let go of her worries and said to Zhang Tianhe with tears in his eyes with a smile:

"Your wife and children are blessed with good fortune. I'll go in and take a look first."

As she spoke, she opened the door and entered the house. Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly wrapped the child in a small blanket and placed him in the crib, then said to Grandma Sun:

"Mrs. Sun, I don't know how to take care of a child. Please wash your hands and face with hot water and go help take care of the child. I'll wash Xiaoyun first."

Grandma Sun smiled and nodded, then went to wash her hands and hold the child.

Aunt Zhang was busy making the bed, while Jiang Yuwei helped Xiaoyun clean up, and then said to Xiaoyun:

"You've worked hard tonight. Have a good rest. I'll come see you again in a few days."

Xiaoyun pulled Jiang Yuwei and cried and thanked her:

"Thank you, Sister Yuwei. If it weren't for you..."

Jiang Yuwei hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe away her tears and said:

"Don't cry, you can't cry during the confinement period, otherwise your eyes will be damaged. Take good care of yourself and don't get too excited. I'm leaving first, you should rest more."

After saying that, Jiang Yuwei stepped out. Now there was a midwife taking care of them and their child, so she was not needed. It was getting late today, and Bandeng would have to go to Uncle Ning's house alone tomorrow. After all this busy work, Jiang Yuwei was exhausted, so she pushed the cart and walked towards the yard.

When Jiang Yuwei arrived home, Ning Wu and Tie Zhu were busy making paper in the backyard with lanterns. Ning Huaizhi was afraid that the lanterns were not bright enough, so he lit a torch to help them light the way.

When Tiezhu saw Jiang Yuwei coming back, he hurried forward and said:

"Sister Yuwei, look at how we are doing. It's already been pounded. We'll put it in the house to dry in the shade. Tomorrow we'll hang the pulp outside to dry."

Jiang Yuwei nodded, stepped forward to check the pulp and said with a smile:

"Well, you've done a good job. It's getting late. You should go back and rest after you finish your work. You don't need to come so early tomorrow. The paper mill is running low on firewood. Tomorrow you can put the pulp outside to dry, and then go to the mountain to chop more firewood."

Tiezhu and Ningwu nodded, moved the paper pulp into the house and spread it out to dry, then locked the door of the paper mill and went out through the pond.

Because Jiang Yuwei had instructed them to go through this door when they came to work in the paper mill in the future, and she also gave them a key to the main entrance of the paper mill and asked them to keep it safely. When they came to work in the morning, they could just use the key to open the door.

Jiang Yuwei was so tired that she didn't want to move. She was about to lie down when she suddenly remembered that the tofu she made today had not been wrapped in wood ash yet. So she got up with difficulty and walked to the yard. She saw that the tofu had already been cut into squares, wrapped in cotton cloth and covered with wood ash.

Jiang Yuwei was moved. She locked the gate and checked that the doors to the backyard were all locked. Only then did she feel at ease and went back to the house to look for Ning Huaizhi:

"Huaizhi, did you make those tofu?"

Ning Huaizhi smiled and said:

"Yeah, I did the right thing, didn't I? I saw you do it once that day so I tried it."

Jiang Yuwei stepped forward, patted Ning Huaizhi on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"You did a great job, and you seem pretty smart!"

Ning Huaizhi's eyes lit up and he smiled:

"Then let me do it from now on!"

Jiang Yuwei smiled and said:

"Okay, I'll satisfy you! By the way, I just went to help Aunt Zhang's eldest daughter-in-law Xiaoyun deliver a baby. She gave birth to a chubby boy, so cute!"

After hearing this, Ning Huaizhi immediately grabbed Jiang Yuwei's hand on his shoulder, looked at her seriously and asked:

"You, you want a child too?"

After hearing what he said, Jiang Yuwei quickly pulled her hand out and said with a red face:

"What are you talking about, Huaizhi? I have Ning Zhao and Ning Wan, that's enough for me. I, I don't want to have a baby. Today, Xiaoyun almost..."

Ning Huaizhi looked at his wife's complicated expression and immediately interrupted her:

"Okay, whatever my wife says is what I'll do. I'll listen to her!"

Jiang Yuwei nodded shyly and said to Ning Huaizhi:

"It's getting late. Go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow morning to make some more tofu, otherwise there won't be enough to sell at the next market. And the preserved eggs with peppers were very popular at the last market. We don't have any eggs at home now, and those chickens can't lay eggs yet. I have to go to the village tomorrow to collect some eggs and make some preserved eggs."

Ning Huaizhi nodded and said:

"Don't be too tired, wife."
