Tietou took the silver and drove the donkey out of the village.

Kaoshan Village is far from Wuan City. It takes at least one hour to get there, and two hours to go back and forth.

Even if Doctor Lin came, the baby had already been born and he could help check on both the adults and the child.

Ye Qing saw that there was no water in the water tank, so he called Ye Dalang to fetch some water.

Ye Dalang was very panicked, but he had some work to do, which could help him relax.

The well was right in the yard. Ye Dalang put the bucket in and pulled it up with a rope.

Just when he had lifted half of the bucket, Wei Xin screamed, and Ye Dalang was so scared that he loosened his grip and the bucket fell back into the well.

"Wife, what's wrong? Is the baby born?"

"Shut up." Zhou's voice scolding Ye Dalang came from inside.

Ye Dalang continued to fetch water pitifully, as he needed hot water.

After all the trouble, the baby still hasn't been born.

"Qingya, have you asked someone to pick up Doctor Lin? I'm so panicked."

"Yes, Brother Tietou went there in person."

"Qingya, you hit me, why do I feel like I have lost all feeling on my face?"

"Brother, calm down and stop spinning. You're leaving marks on the ground."

"I couldn't sit still. I was very nervous."

Ye Qing didn't know how to comfort him, she was also very panicked.

In order to stop his mind from wandering, Ye Qing went to the kitchen to cook.

They have been busy in there for so long, they must be hungry.

I boiled brown sugar water and poached eggs for Wei Xin, and prepared noodles with eggs for others.

I also made millet porridge for Wei Xin so that she could drink it after giving birth.

Two hours passed, Wei Xin had not given birth yet, and Doctor Lin had not come either.

Ye Qing went outside the yard to look several times, but did not see Tietou.

Wei Xin's cries became weaker and weaker, and Ye Qing outside became nervous.

Just when Ye Qing was about to find someone else to go and greet Doctor Lin, their figures finally appeared outside the door.

"Grandpa Lin, you're here. My sister-in-law has been in for most of the day and hasn't given birth yet."

Doctor Lin tilted his head to listen to the noise inside, then called Mrs. Wang to ask her a few questions, with a relaxed look on his face.

"It's okay, everything is fine inside. It's normal for the first baby to be born a little slowly."

With Dr. Lin in charge, the family felt at ease.

Even Wei Xin regained his strength and ate two bowls of rice while the pain was not severe.

Doctor Lin went to the backyard and talked to Old Man Ye.

Ye Qing brought the prepared meal to the backyard and asked Boss Ye to eat with the two old people.

Ye Qing brought the ginseng slices he bought into the house. Although they were not needed now, Wei Xin was less afraid knowing that there was ginseng.

By the evening, Wei Xin still hadn't given birth. After the contractions were over, she was able to get up and walk around.

Several scholars came back. Wei Jia and Wei Xiu were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They only felt much better after seeing Doctor Lin.

Wei Jia and Wei Xiu sent someone to send a message to their family that they would not be going back today and would stay at Ye's house for one night.

She didn't dare tell the two old people that Wei Xin was about to give birth. She just said that the homework assigned by the teacher was difficult and she and Ye Chenjing would discuss it together.

Wei Jia and Wei Xiu often lived in the Ye family. The two old people did not suspect anything and even sent someone to bring back a message asking them to be more diligent in their work at the Ye family.

At about 10 p.m. in the evening, the sound of a baby crying was heard.

"It's happening, it's happening."

Ye Dalang looked at the door with shining eyes, but there was no sound from inside.

Ye Dalang and Wei Jia didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the people inside.

Ye Qing also stood in the yard, waiting for news from inside.

After a while, Zhou came out holding a child and said to everyone, "It's a big fat boy, 8.6 jin, both mother and child are safe."

Wei Jia quietly turned around and wiped the tears from her face. It was really great that her sister gave birth to her nephew safely.

Ye Qing walked forward excitedly and stretched his head to look at the baby in the cradle.

The baby was just born and hasn’t grown up yet. It was red and looked like a little monkey.

Wei Jia and Wei Xiu came to see their nephew. Looking at the wrinkled little child in front of them, they were a little skeptical. They wondered how could their sister and brother-in-law, who were so good-looking, give birth to such an ugly child.

Only Ye Dalang looked at the child happily, feeling that the child was cute no matter how he looked at him.

Zhou looked at the expressions on the faces of several people with a funny look on her face and explained, "Babies are all like this when they are just born. They will be more beautiful when they grow up."

Brothers Ye Qing and Wei Jia both had joy in their eyes, as they finally didn't have to worry about him not being able to find a wife.

Only Ye Dalang looked at the child lovingly, muttering to himself, "He's so pretty now. When he grows up, he will surely charm many girls."

Wei Jia and Wei Xiu looked at their brother-in-law in disbelief. They had never noticed that he had any eye problems before.

Ye Dalang looked at him twice more before asking, "Mom, why can't I hear my wife's voice?"

"I fell asleep because I was tired. I'm in good health."

Wei Jia and Wei Xiu finally felt relieved. When they looked at their little nephew again, he was not as ugly as he used to be.

Ye Qing watched Zhou carry the child into the room and quickly set the table. The people helping inside had not yet had dinner.

Ye Dalang happily went to the backyard to announce the good news, "Grandpa, Grandpa Lin, my wife gave birth to a big fat boy, weighing 8.6 jin."

"Good, good, I have a great-grandson." Old man Ye never thought that he would live to see his great-grandson.

Boss Ye was also very excited. This was his first grandchild and he had been looking forward to his birth.

Doctor Lin congratulated Old Man Ye, "Congratulations, Old Man Ye, four generations living under one roof."

"Congratulations, you can stay at home tonight. Your house is not cleaned up, so help look after the children tomorrow morning."

"Listen to Brother Ye." Doctor Lin did not consider himself an outsider and agreed readily.

The few people who came to help had dinner with Mrs. Wang, and Ye Dalang personally sent them home.

Zhou was happy and gave Wang Po five hundred coins as a thank you gift. Wang Po happily went home with the brown sugar and red envelope.

Wang Po was old, so Ye Dalang helped her back home. They lived in the same village, not far from each other.

The Ye family members were tired after a day of work and started snoring the moment they lay down on the bed.

The next morning, Wei Jia and Wei Xiu talked to Wei Xin in the yard before going to the private school with peace of mind.

Wei Xin drank the brown sugar water prepared for her, ate the poached eggs, and stared at her son's little face, which became more and more adorable the more she looked.

"Xin, lie down quickly after eating. You need to rest more during the confinement period." Zhou watched her daughter-in-law sit down and look at her grandson after eating.

"Listen to mom. I'll lie down now." Wei Xin lay down obediently, looked at her son who was sleeping soundly, and fell asleep as well.

Ye Dalang left home early in the morning and first went to his grandfather's house to tell the good news, and then went to Ji Village to inform the two old people of the good news.

The two old people had been worried about them these days, and they were relieved to hear that the mother and child were safe.

Since Ye Qing was no longer at home, she went to Yipinxiang.

"Sister Xi, Yipinxiang is having a three-day promotion with 20% off on everything to celebrate the birth of my little nephew."

Ye Xi also had a happy look on her face and agreed readily.
