Su Yu's movements were smooth and skillful. With professional techniques, she quickly cut the umbilical cord connecting the baby to the mother's body, and then patted the baby's soft buttocks and back forcefully but gently. The "pa pa" sound was crisp and loud, which seemed particularly abrupt in this tense atmosphere, making the onlookers' hearts beat faster and they dared not slack off at all.

At this moment, the whole room seemed to have frozen in time, and everyone's heart was in their throat.

This little life may have suffered from hypoxia due to the long birth process. If it cannot make the cry that symbolizes new life in time, all previous efforts will be in vain.

Su Yu observed that simple patting did not work, and a trace of determination flashed across her brows. Then she gently lifted the baby's feet, carefully hung it upside down, and increased the strength of the patting on the soles of the feet. Every contact was filled with eager expectations.

"Cry it out, baby, cry it out..."

There is infinite tenderness and persistence in Su Yu's voice, like a spring breeze blowing across the frozen lake, trying to awaken the dormant vitality.

This heart-wrenching scene made Yu Yan, who was standing aside, feel tense. Her mind seemed to be suddenly pulled away, and her brain was blank. All her worries and prayers condensed into an invisible force, surrounding this fragile little life.

The silence of a newborn is like a huge rock, weighing on everyone's heart, and its heavy meaning is self-evident.

Su Yu did not give up. She continued to work hard, while Yu Yan's eyes were fixed on the frail, purple-skinned, lifeless little body. The pain in her heart was like a sharp blade cutting her, almost making it impossible for her to breathe. Her body trembled involuntarily and her breathing became difficult, as if an invisible hand was strangling her throat and it was difficult for her to breathe smoothly.

Just when everyone was almost in despair, the baby finally let out a long cry of "Wow", breaking the silent air, like the sound of nature.

This voice was like a key that instantly unlocked Yuyan's spirit that was tense to the limit. Her body softened, she lost consciousness and fainted.

Sweat dripped from Su Yu's forehead like rain. She looked at the baby in her arms whose face was gradually regaining its rosy color and whose vitality was gradually emerging. The heavy stone in her heart finally eased a little.

The child was carefully handed over to the two midwives who were still immersed in shock, and they were instructed: "Please clean him, wrap him up properly, and send him to a place with the most lush greenery."

The room was as warm as spring. Apparently, in order to keep out the cold, heaters were carefully placed everywhere. However, these warm devices inadvertently reduced the oxygen content in the room.

This is not the best environment for a baby who has been deprived of oxygen for a long time in the womb and who, although surviving, still needs high oxygenation to promote recovery.

Green vegetation under sunlight can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis. The lush greenery is the natural oxygen bar that babies need most.

Faced with this sudden instruction, one midwife seemed to be frightened and at a loss, standing there frozen, while the other midwife with more experience and a calm expression quickly took the child and answered loudly: "Okay, I'll do it right away."

At this time, Zhang Yufei walked into the room holding a medicine bowl, and saw Su Yu sipping tea leisurely at the table, but her slightly trembling fingers revealed the tension and intensity she had experienced before.

He turned his gaze to the unconscious wife of the county magistrate, his brows full of worry: "Is she... okay?"

Could something unexpected really have happened? In a horizontal birth, the mother and child could be safe, but the adult's physical condition was indeed unpredictable.

"It's okay. I was physically weak after giving birth and my emotions were volatile. I couldn't handle it and fainted."

Su Yu's tone was calm and firm, which made Zhang Yufei feel relieved. "This is the best outcome."

"Then this labor-inducing drug..."

Zhang Yufei secretly speculated that since mother and child were safe, the labor-inducing drug might have lost its effect.

However, Su Yu gave an unexpected answer: "The medicine should be taken as soon as possible."

Looking at the puzzled expression on Director Liu's face, Su Yu patiently explained: "This labor-inducing drug can not only speed up childbirth, but more importantly, it can strengthen uterine contractions and help postpartum women expel lochia and debris from their bodies faster, which is extremely beneficial for recovery..."

Zhang Yufei suddenly realized and felt a little ashamed of his negligence. It turned out that the art of medicine was so profound and the key to its application lay in one's heart.

"I am shallow, thank you for your advice."

Zhang Yufei was very humble and had more respect for Su Yu, a young man with great medical skills, rather than jealousy or dissatisfaction.

He noticed the tiredness on Su Yu's face, and considerately did not disturb her any further. He walked straight to the bedside, took out a slender silver needle from his lapel, and gently tapped Yu Yan's Ren Zhong point several times. His movements were gentle and professional.

Not long after, Yuyan slowly opened her eyes and murmured, "Child...my child..." Her voice was full of love and worry as a new mother.

At this moment, the midwife gently lifted the layers of soft cotton cloth and carefully displayed the newborn baby in front of Yu Yan. Her eyes were full of tenderness and relief, and her voice was warm and firm: "Madam, you see, this little boy is safe and sound, and healthy. Please be at ease."

As the words fell, the midwife gently wrapped the baby again, as if holding the most precious treasure, and slowly walked out of the room.

Outside the door, the spring sunshine shines through the gaps in the leaves, sprinkling on the stone road in a mottled manner, as if silently welcoming the arrival of this new life.

In my memory, the female doctor with a solemn expression but revealing unquestionable authority specifically instructed that the child's early years should be spent in a green place, where the fresh air and harmony with nature can give him the best nourishment and protection.

Although everyone couldn't help but feel a little doubtful and curious, their trust in the female doctor's superb medical skills made them follow every instruction without hesitation.

After all, at such a tense moment between life and death, even the midwife, who was experienced and had seen many ups and downs, could not hide the shock and relief on her face - there were many similar crises, and the outcomes were often not satisfactory. Today, the child was able to escape a disaster, all thanks to the miraculous hands of the female doctor. Her superb medical skills are truly admirable.

The midwife held the baby in her arms and walked towards the county magistrate's study with uncontrollable joy.

Wu Wenxing, the county magistrate who was usually obsessed with gardening, immediately put down the book in his hand upon hearing the news, his face filled with excitement and happiness of becoming a father: "Okay! Okay! Hurry up, send the child to the greenhouse!"

His words were full of impatience.

The Wu family's greenhouse is located deep in the mansion. It is spring all year round, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants are competing for beauty. It is not only the result of Wu Wenxing's hard work, but will also become the first shelter for this young master.
