After all, if they can ensure the safe delivery of the child, they will receive a red envelope of 200 taels of silver, which is ten times more than what those rich families get when they give birth. Naturally, the two of them are willing to take good care of the mother of the God of Wealth. They have moved in here in advance because they thought the day is approaching. Although the place is not big, it is quite comfortable to live in.

Wang Shiyu was not idle either. Seeing that Zhou Qingyun would not let him go out, she locked Zhou Qingyun's door for her own convenience and even nailed the windows from the outside. In order to allow Zhou Qingyun to relieve himself in the room, she even placed a urinal at the door. The main idea was that even if Zhou Qingyun died today, he had to die in her room.

If the King of Hell came to visit, he probably wouldn't be able to get into Zhou Qingyun's room because it was physically locked. If he got in, Wang Shiyu would lock him in the room directly, and no one could disturb her mother.

Mr. Liu has not come these days, mainly because Wang Shiyu was told two days ago that the mistress of the family might be giving birth, and it would be inconvenient for him, a man, to be here.

Mr. Liu simply asked for a few days off. In fact, if it weren't for the tuition, he would not have been willing to come to teach Zhou Qingyun. After all, there was a pregnant woman and a child at home in the morning, and it was not convenient for him, a man, to come to the house for the sake of the woman's reputation.

Later, Wang Shiyu changed the time when Mr. Liu came to teach, and asked him to come in the afternoon to teach. When he came, Wang Shiyu sat in the yard with her embroidery stand and embroidered. Mo Ruru also walked back and forth in the yard and basically did not go back to the room. The main point was to be open and aboveboard.

In order to prevent other people from gossiping and to maintain peace in Mr. Liu's family, every time Mr. Liu came, he would go straight into the house to teach Zhou Qingyun. Wang Shiyu and Mo Ruru would open the door of their house wide for people outside to watch, and would not close the door until Mr. Liu left. This made many rumors that were unfavorable to Mo Ruru self-defeating.

Even when Mr. Liu's wife had nothing to do, she would bring her daughter to Wang Shiyu's house to play. Zhang Qingzhou (Zhou Qingyun's alias) was a very smart child, and her husband liked her very much, so sometimes he would bring his wife and daughter to teach together. While his wife and Mo Ruru were taking a walk in the yard, or making tea and eating snacks in their spare time, his daughter would be outside learning embroidery with Wang Shiyu, which made many onlookers embarrassed.

After all, the ones who said the most unpleasant things were her neighbors. Now the wife is living peacefully with the woman whose husband is doing business outside. No matter what, they are the ones who are wrong. After all, they were the ones who spread the rumors first. Yet no one takes it seriously, even the wife of the male protagonist of the story doesn't take it seriously, making them complete clowns in the city.

Wang Shiyu in the kitchen looked at the black chicken in her hand, stuffed it directly into the clay pot and started to boil it. Another large pot was also lit at this time, and even began to steam. She was not strong enough, so she asked Aniu's mother, a widow who lived here with a son. They had always relied on Aniu to collect firewood and his mother to wash clothes for others to earn some money to supplement the family income. The mother and daughter lived here relying on each other.

Aniu's surname is Niu. His father encountered a storm while sailing out to sea on a merchant ship and was stranded at sea. Even his body could not be found. The shipping company paid a lot of compensation, but Aniu and his mother were reluctant to touch the money and kept it in a money shop. They both had hands and feet and could support themselves, and Aunt Niu always wanted to use the money to help Aniu get married.

After Mo Ruru's belly became big, Aunt Niu helped with the housework and clothing. So when Mo Ruru was about to give birth, she went to find Aunt Niu next door and asked Brother Niu to send five loads of firewood to her house and asked Aunt Niu to help. When Aunt Niu heard that Mo Ruru was about to give birth, she didn't care about the things on the stove at home.

She quickly put out the fire, then followed her home and started helping with the chores, especially the basins of hot water that were delivered to the delivery room. If it were up to Wang Shiyu, she would probably be exhausted to death. Aunt Niu has been doing heavy labor for many years and is very strong, so this kind of work is nothing in her eyes. In fact, because Wang Shiyu was always generous when she asked her for help, she worked hard, which was much better than those who arbitrarily deducted her wages.

Wang Shiyu's hands are very precious, and she usually doesn't touch rough things. Mo Ruru usually lights the fire herself, and Wang Shiyu just stews a chicken, adds some firewood, and tidies up her room. When she has nothing to do, she will use various medicinal herbs and milk to protect her hands. After all, these are the treasures of their family's meals.

Even so, Mo Ru Ru felt sorry for her daughter's precious little hands. You know, the embroidery made by Wang Shiyu's slightly tender little hands is worth dozens of taels of silver. Moreover, Wang Shiyu's embroidery has many patterns and is deeply loved by those young ladies. Even if there are some flaws, they are in great demand in the embroidery shop.

Wang Shiyu sold all these patterns to the embroidery shop. After all, this was a one-time transaction. As long as the embroiderer had seen these embroidery methods, she could learn them directly after some study. It would be better to sell them to the owner of the embroidery shop as a favor. Therefore, even without the support of her grandfather, Wang Shiyu is living a very good life and has no shortage of money.

In order to make life at home better, she also deliberately learned some other embroidery methods. In order to be able to master them, she also worked very hard. If the space had not been as bright as day, she might not have been able to learn so quickly. After all, an embroiderer's eyes are also very precious. Those embroiderers who stayed up late to embroider eventually had to give up embroidery because of eye problems.

It didn't take long for Mo Ruru to give birth to this baby. It only took two hours. And because Mo Ruru didn't scream in pain, but held back her strength during delivery, the baby was born so quickly.

Granny Tan knew who gave her the money, and she also knew that Wang Shiyu was waiting at the door, so she took care of the child and swaddled him, then spoke to Mo Ru Ru, who was a little exhausted but in good spirits.

"Congratulations, Madam, on giving birth to a little boy. Look how energetic this child is. From his rosy skin, you can tell that he will be a fair and handsome boy in the future."

Mo Ru Ru's face was a little pale, her hair was wet with sweat, and she looked at the child with a smile on her face. He was still young and it was hard to tell who he looked like. His face was red like a little monkey.

"Mother-in-law, please take the child out and let Xiaoyu take a look. The child must be very worried."

After she finished speaking, she heaved a sigh of relief, closed her eyes and began to rest. Doctor Wen had been staring at Mo Ruru's condition and only breathed a sigh of relief after she was sure that Mo Ruru was just a little exhausted and closed her eyes to rest. No one could snatch the two hundred taels of silver from her.

Granny Tan happily carried the child out of the door. Wang Shiyu had already heard the baby's cry and Granny Tan's congratulations. She was relieved when she was sure that there was no big mess in the house.

She didn't expect that Granny Tan would actually hold the baby and let her see it. Wang Shiyu then remembered a local custom that when the midwife holds the baby out, she must prepare a red envelope and put it on the baby's swaddling clothes, which means that it can suppress the child's soul and allow the child to grow up safely.

When returning to the delivery room, the money will be taken away by the midwife, who is the first person to touch the child. This means that the midwife is the first person to witness the child and can lead the child to grow up healthily. Wang Shiyu did not expect that her mother would let her mother-in-law take the child out, so she did not prepare.
