Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

Listening to the cries of pain, Gu Yichuan's expression changed even more.

"Why is this happening? It's my wife who gave birth to the child, and I'm her husband, so why can't I even look at her? Besides, I have something to say to her!"

He took a step and rushed inside, but was held back tightly by the midwife.

She said angrily, "You look so handsome, but how come you don't know the rules? Didn't your mother teach you that giving birth to a child is very bloody, and if a man gets involved in this, he will be in big trouble. You are so young, don't you want to get promoted and make a fortune in the future?"

"Nonsense!"

Gu Yichuan turned his head to look at her and said in a deep voice: "I am where I am today, all thanks to my wife's support. Now she is stepping into the gates of hell to give birth to a child for me. I have missed so many days. At this critical moment, how can I not be by her side?"

After saying this, he shook off the midwife and strode into the inner room.

The midwife couldn't stop him and could only let him do what he wanted.

I was secretly surprised. I didn't expect that there would be someone in the world who loved his wife and children so much. In order to be with his wife, he even disregarded the taboos since ancient times?

Shen Nankui was surprised when he saw him come in. "What are you doing here?"

She looked painful, her face was as pale as paper, and her breathing was a little unstable.

Gu Yichuan felt extremely distressed and only hated that he couldn't suffer for her. Suddenly, his eyes turned red.

"I came to see you."

After half a year, the two met again.

But it happened at such a critical moment as giving birth.

Even though Shen Nankui had a thousand thoughts and countless questions in her mind, she couldn't even look at him quietly.

"I'm busy. If you have anything to say, wait until I give birth."

After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath.

It hurts.

It really hurts.

She was in so much pain that she had no time to care about the old things. She just wanted to get this annoying little thing out of her belly as soon as possible.

Seeing her like this, Gu Yichuan was a little at a loss, and all the words he had in mind were stuck in his throat.

Before coming to Yongzhou, he had calculated the time. Thinking that Shen Nankui's due date was at the end of October, he rushed here day and night. After explaining everything to her, he would be able to stay by her side and wait for the baby to be born with her.

But he had planned everything, but he never expected that his wife would be secretly murdered and suffer premature birth.

If he had come a little later today, would the child have already been born?

Then he is a very incompetent husband.

After the midwife had brought in the hot water, she came over to persuade him, "It's a good thing that you care about your wife, but it's not appropriate for a man to watch a woman giving birth. Your wife is about to go into labor, so you should leave first."

Shen Nankui gritted his teeth and said, "...Go out. If you stay here, I will be distracted."

Gu Yichuan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly held her hand and said, "Nan Kui, we haven't seen each other for half a year since we parted in Beijing. I know you must still blame me in your heart, and I know it's not appropriate to say this at this moment, but I still want to tell you that I have done nothing wrong to you and the child. I am late today. I will tell you everything after you give birth safely. I will take any punishment you want, okay?"

Shen Nankui nodded slightly, "Go ahead."

Hearing her promise in person, Gu Yichuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll be guarding you outside, Nankui, you must hold on."

He walked out the door, looking back every few steps.

Shen Nankui watched him leave, a smile unconsciously appearing on his lips.

He clearly hadn't explained anything yet, but after hearing his words, the stone pressing on her heart seemed to loosen a little.

The midwife lifted the quilt and said excitedly, "I can already see the baby's head, madam, please try harder!"

"Listen to the old lady's command, inhale, exhale, one, two, exert force!"

"Slow down, and try harder!"

……

The delivery room was bustling with activity.

Gu Yichuan was standing outside the door, like an ant on a hot pan, and was extremely anxious.

He asked Zhongshan questions from time to time.

"How much time has passed? What time is it?"

"Why hasn't it been born yet?"

Occasionally, when she saw no movement in the delivery room, she would call out in a panic, "Nan Kui, how are you?"

This fearful look not only made Shen Nankui, who was almost exhausted in the room, laugh.

The four subordinates who came with him to Yongzhou today also widened their eyes. They looked at each other in bewilderment. They had not expected that Gu Yichuan, who had always been calm and composed, would be so flustered when his wife gave birth to a child.

As time passed, it gradually became evening.

Before the midwife could say anything, Gu Yichuan had already panicked. Seeing the midwife coming out to pour water, he quickly grabbed her and asked, "How is my wife?"

He didn't even realize that his hands were shaking.

The midwife comforted him, "Don't worry, my lord. Madam is young and this is her first child, so the delivery process will inevitably be slow. Just wait a little longer."

After saying that, she hurried back into the house.

Gu Yichuang waited outside the door without eating or drinking until it was getting dark, and finally heard the loud cry of a baby coming from the house.

"Born, born!"

Hearing this voice, Gu Yichuan finally felt relieved.

Soon, the midwife came out holding the child and congratulated him, "Congratulations, sir, congratulations, sir, your wife has given birth to a daughter, and both mother and daughter are safe!"

The child in her arms had a red and wrinkled face, with a pair of extremely pure eyes, looking at the world blankly and curiously.

Gu Yichuan couldn't help but feel happy.

This is their child, his daughter.

However, he only took a glance and quickly glanced into the house, "Where is my wife, how is she?"

The midwife smiled and said, "Madam is fine, but a little weak. Once I clean her up, you can go in and see her."

The wet nurse had already been brought over by Hei Niu and was waiting in the yard. The midwife handed the child to her and went back to her room.

After a while, the midwife finished packing and finally called Gu Yichuan in.

The wet nurse just happened to have finished feeding the child, so Gu Yichuan carried the child into the house. The midwife couldn't help but praise him, "Is this the young master's first child? It's rare that you know how to hold a child when you're a father for the first time."

Gu Yichuan smiled and said, "I have held my nephews and nieces in my arms before, so I know how to do it."

The little baby fell asleep after eating. He looked so quiet, just like a well-behaved kitten, which made people feel infinite love for him.

Gu Yichuan carefully carried her into the house.

Shen Nankui was dozing with his eyes closed. He opened his eyes when he heard some noise. He was startled to see him coming in with the child.

"I didn't expect you could hold a child."

Gu Yichuan also smiled, "Don't worry, I have already experimented on A Yuan and A Qiao."
