Female-to-male: I live on farming
Chapter 155 Mother and daughter are safe
The midwife and the doctor lived in the courtyard next to their house. They were all experienced veterans in the city. They had handled at least eight hundred women in labor.
When they hurried over, Qin Ke was half-kneeling in front of the bed, holding Lu Youqing's hand tightly.
Lu Youqing had already slightly closed her eyes because of the pain, her brows were furrowed, and her wet hair stuck to her pale cheeks. Another wave of pain came over her, and the hand that Qin Ke was holding suddenly tightened, and the knuckles turned white from the force.
When the midwife examined Lu Youqing, she wanted to ask Qin Ke to leave. Qin Ke did not even raise his head and urged, "Do your job. I will not hinder you."
Seeing that they couldn't persuade him, they stopped trying.
Since ancient times, men in the family would avoid a woman's delivery room, disliking the strong smell of blood. At most, they would wait outside the door for the baby to be born.
But they also saw that there was no mother-in-law in charge in this mansion, and the husband and his wife were in charge of the affairs together. Now that the husband insisted on staying in the delivery room, they could not say anything. After all, they were just servants who were paid to do the job.
But I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that it is rare to find people with such deep love and loyalty in this world.
Qin Ke might not know much else, but he knew that the umbilical cord needed to be cut when giving birth, so he prepared the scissors early. In ancient times, disinfection was just a matter of boiling hot water, so he distilled and purified the wine he bought in advance. Although he might not be able to purify it into pure alcohol, it was always much higher in alcohol content than the wine on the market.
After Lu Youqing recovered from the pain, she saw Qin Ke's face as if he was facing a great enemy. She held her arm and trembled slightly, but she still had the energy to comfort him, "Don't be afraid, this is how women give birth."
Qin Ke lowered his head and put his hand against her cheek, and said "hmm" softly.
In fact, he was terribly scared. He was afraid of the backward medical conditions in ancient times. Although he had done his best to make full preparations, he was still afraid of any accidents. If something happened to his wife...
He simply couldn't bear to think about it.
Hearing Lu Youqing's words at this time, he didn't want her to have to take care of him while giving birth, so he tried to calm down.
Fortunately, the midwife and the doctor were very experienced, and Qin Ke didn't need to do anything. Although the bedroom looked messy with people coming and going, everyone was doing their job, so Qin Ke was the most free.
"I want to eat the fish soup you made. Can you make it for me?" Lu Youqing suddenly spoke.
"Okay, okay, wait a minute."
According to the midwife, Lu Youqing's water hasn't broken yet, and it will probably take some time. Now she can eat something when she can, so that she can have some strength when she gives birth.
Thinking of this, Qin Ke hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen. The whole mansion was already busy at this moment, and the cook also got up and was waiting in the kitchen just in case.
Seeing Qin Ke coming over, he hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"Okay, go catch a fish and prepare some fish soup."
Nowadays, Qin Ke rarely cooks by himself. Whenever he thinks of something new to eat, he gives the recipes to the cooks and asks them to make it. He also knows that Lu Youqing doesn't want to eat the food he cooks by himself, but just wants to find something for him to do to stop him from thinking too much.
The cooks in the kitchen were all skilled. They cleaned the fish quickly and neatly and stewed it in no time.
After thinking about it, Qin Ke ordered them to prepare some food for the other people in the mansion. It was estimated that they would have to toss and turn all night. When he returned with the fish soup, Lu Youqing's labor pains became more and more frequent, and the midwife was checking her cervix opening.
"My lady, come here, have a couple of bites." When the pain was over, Qin Ke blew the cold fish soup hurriedly to coax her to eat a few bites. He coaxed and fed her until she drank half a bowl of soup.
At this time, Lu Youqing couldn't eat anything.
"The cervix is dilated!" After checking several times, the midwife finally saw that the cervix was wide dilated and hurriedly ordered people to prepare.
Lu Youqing, who had never cried out in pain, finally couldn't help but scream out. She lay in Qin Ke's arms, sweating profusely from the pain, and her messy black hair had long been soaked with sweat.
All Qin Ke could do was hold her tightly and continue to comfort and encourage her in her ears.
The midwife was busy under the cover of the quilt on the other side, instructing Lu Youqing on how to breathe in and out and when to use force.
Qin Ke couldn't remember how long he had been struggling. By the time Lu Youqing in his arms was exhausted, the sky outside had gradually brightened. The first rays of light rose in the east, illuminating the uneven clouds with colorful colors. Their child was finally born.
A loud baby cry was heard, the cry was clear and powerful, full of vitality and energy.
"Mother and daughter are safe! Mother and daughter are safe!"
Only after the doctor finished taking Lu Youqing's pulse and said this did Qin Ke finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, it still needed a lot of cleaning up. Qin Ke carried Lu Youqing, who had fallen asleep due to exhaustion, to the bathroom to clean him up. The bedding in the bedroom needed to be replaced with clean ones. After he carried Lu Youqing back to the bed and settled him down, the midwife had already wrapped the baby in a swaddle and handed it to Qin Ke.
Qin Ke looked at the little ball wrapped in the swaddling clothes, sleeping soundly with its little hands curled up. A newborn baby was not that good-looking, being red and wrinkled, but so tender and soft. Qin Ke felt filled with joy.
Carefully she carried the child to the bed and placed him next to Lu Youqing. Looking at the mother and daughter leaning on each other, Qin Ke's eyes were full of tenderness and love.
These two women are the most precious things in his life, one is his beloved wife, and the other is the fruit of their love.
At this moment, Qin Ke felt that he owned the whole world.
He just wanted to keep watching, but the mansion was in a mess now, and he had to make arrangements.
He ordered to give rewards to the servants in the mansion, arranged for the wet nurse to live in their courtyard, sent someone to report to the Princess's mansion, and asked for leave for Lu Youqing. Fortunately, Li's mother still lived in the mansion, and with her help, everything was arranged.
It was already bright outside. Although Qin Ke had slept for only an hour last night and had been tossing and turning for half the night, he was still very excited. After eating a few bites of food, he went back to the dormitory to look after Lu Youqing.
Han Qi looked at her husband's excited expression and thought that her husband would not leave the house for a short time, so she felt relieved.
He teased his daughter in the cradle. It was called teasing, but in fact he just tapped the baby's eyebrows with his finger. As soon as he withdrew his hand, he saw his daughter, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened her eyes.
Her black eyes stared straight at Qin Ke, and the next second she opened her mouth and was about to cry.
Qin Ke: “!!”
The nurse next to him saw that he was a little frightened and couldn't help laughing. She quickly picked up the child and patted her to comfort her, saying, "The young lady is hungry, so don't worry, my dear."
