Priceless: A widow with a baby asks the prince to marry again

Chapter 128: Beat the snake and follow the stick

Even if everything goes smoothly, giving birth is still a torturous experience.

After lunch, at 3 p.m., the rosy glow on the short and fat man's face that had been returning from lunch disappeared, and the delivery of the fetus actually began in the female doctor's clinic.

The people in the front yard also understood, because the woman's wailing became more and more shrill! To the point that the heart-pounding sound could be heard in the front yard!

Chu Shiyu started to panic again.

Yue Ziqian did not go into the study to teach Qin Hao. He believed that Qin Hao should abide by the agreement with his mother. He just chatted with Qin Hao in the living room about some extracurricular poems and songs.

"Was it this painful when my mother gave birth to me?" Little Qin Hao frowned, feeling the pain his mother had once suffered.

Chu Shiyu paused, feeling a little uncomfortable. Having children seemed to be a tribulation that most women would experience...but he could hardly imagine what Liu Rusi had experienced. Was such pain really necessary?

"The greatest filial piety is to respect one's parents."

Yue Ziqian took the child's hand and said in a clear voice: "You should be grateful for your mother's kindness. In the future, you should remember to do your best to do what you promised your mother, instead of being obedient on the surface but lying."

Little Qin Hao lowered his head slightly. Although the teacher didn't specify what the matter was, he understood that he had agreed to teach for only an hour and a half, but he was taking advantage of the situation and asking the teacher to teach more...

However, Xiao Qinhao secretly glanced at his adoptive father. His adoptive father had supported him before. Before, when the time was exceeded, his adoptive father would take the initiative to ask him if he wanted to learn...

Chu Shiyu turned his head to see what he was doing. He had to do it to get close to Liu Rusi! How could he blame him for the boy's lack of determination?

"Wa~Wa~" A loud cry like a cat's meow was heard!

"Born! Born!"

Chunlan came out jumping up and down to announce the good news. Before she even opened the door of the women's clinic, she heard shouts of surprise from people far and near!

The short and fat man finally showed an excited look of anticipation, and hurried over to ask eagerly, "Do you have a penis?"

Chunlan's joy disappeared immediately after she opened the door. They were happy that they had successfully welcomed a new life for the first time and did not care about the gender of the baby...

Seeing Chunlan remained silent, the short and fat man also knew what was going on. He ignored the presence of an important figure and immediately roared like a demon: "Another money-loser?!"

"How come the third one is a girl?! Did you make a mistake? The fortune teller clearly said this baby is a boy! Or are you all girls, so the boy in your belly was washed away!"

“Brother, please don’t talk nonsense! Most births are done by women!” Yue Ziqian frowned.

"Drag him out." Chu Shiyu didn't care whether he was the husband of the woman in labor or not. In this situation, it might be better without this husband.

The two guards immediately stepped forward and dragged the short and fat man out without any explanation!

"There is still one!"

There was another faint call from the women's clinic!

The short and fat man who had just been dragged a few steps immediately struggled and shouted, "Wait! Let me wait a little longer!"

"Make him kneel there and gag him."

Chu Shiyu came up with an idea in his mind. If the second child was also a girl, he would castrate the boy. As long as there was no possibility of having a boy, these girls might be treated well.

However, his "good plan" was not put into use.

Less than a moment!

"Another baby! Twins, a boy and a girl!"

The short and fat man's eyes suddenly widened with excitement! A son! He had a son! But he was pressed to the ground and couldn't get up, and his mouth was tied with a cloth! He could only cry "woo woo".

Everyone turned a deaf ear to his movements, most of them were happy that the women inside had accomplished this difficult task.

"Mrs. Liu, can you come out and have a rest? You have been busy for four hours!" Chu Shiyu asked Qiuju who came out to report the good news.

It was Caiyun who just came out who answered: "It will take a while. Sister Si needs to take care of the mother. Let me ask the family first if they want the mother to stay here for a few days...

Chu Shiyu was slightly dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do, so he signaled to the guards to let go of the short and fat man's mouth.

"Where is my son? Let me see my son!" the short and fat man shouted excitedly as soon as he was released.

"Sister Si said that the baby has just been born and cannot go out to be exposed to the wind right away. He will need to be breastfed in a few minutes and cannot be separated from his mother. Is there anyone in your family who can take care of the mother and the child? If not, you can let them stay here first." Caiyun was not as shy as usual, and she spoke very seriously.

"Then let me go in and take a look!" The short and fat man struggled to get up.

"This is a female clinic, no men allowed." Chu Shiyu said coldly. He was no exception, and no one else should be! He could barely ignore the newborn baby!

The short and fat man's face turned red, and after a long while he asked, "Then what am I here for?"

In fact, it was useless. Caiyun secretly complained, then took out two pieces of paper and said, "This is for your lady's treatment fee, loss fee, and accommodation fee for the next month..."

The short and fat man's heart tightened. Could it be that they were going to detain his son and charge him a high price? !

"The total amount is eight taels and three cents. Would you like to pay it now?" Caiyun stated the amount.

A meal for a short and fat man is expensive, but not sky-high. If I had only given birth to a daughter, I wouldn't have wanted to do that. But now this little bit of money is no big deal!

"I'll pay! I'll pay now, but can you let me see my son first?!"

"Sister Si said that for the sake of your child, you can't see him for the time being... If you really want to see him, when you bring food to Madam later, I can wrap him up and bring him out so you can have a look."

"Deliver food?" The short and fat man was stunned.

"Yes, a new mother needs to eat. Of course, we can cook for her, but the food here is more refined. One meal costs one tael, and three meals a day costs two and a half taels at the cheapest."

Caiyun followed what Sister Si said and gave a choice: "Do you want to cook it and send it to us, or let the mother eat our food?"

"I'll deliver it! But I have to ask for leave from Zui Xiang Lou first! Can you deliver it later?" The short and fat man asked hurriedly. Is the food here expensive? Actually, it's not that bad. The expensive dishes in Zui Xiang Lou cost more than ten taels! But he is just a cook. It's the best he can make a few taels a month.

Caiyun smiled knowingly and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you something. A new mother should eat light but nutritious food, otherwise she will have no milk and your baby will go hungry! When making chicken soup, you need to skim off the oil, and the crucian carp soup should be stewed until it turns milky white..."

The short and fat man nodded and left, silently noting down those requests in his mind. For a cook like him, these were not difficult tasks.

Caiyun couldn't help but smile with her eyes curved, jumping up and down, and was about to go back and tell Sister Si about the short and fat man's reaction.

"Hey! Let Rusi finish her work and come out early! She must be tired too!" Chu Shiyu urged again.

In the women's clinic.

"Is this my son?" The woman was very weak after giving birth, but there was still obvious joy on her face.

"No, this is your daughter. She was born first. You should feed her first." Liu Rusi said softly.

"I'll feed my son first. I don't know if my milk is enough..." The woman's eyes immediately left the baby in front of her and looked elsewhere.

Liu Rusi gently held her face and said something ambiguous: "The girl in front came first, then the boy in the back. You have to treat them equally."

"This..." The woman in labor looked confused.

"Just listen to me. Feed the baby girl first, then feed the baby boy. This way, neither child will be hungry." Liu Rusi handed the baby girl over again.

The mother still didn't understand, but she didn't object. She had given birth before and was very skilled at breastfeeding.

After both babies were fed colostrum, the women moved the mother to the bed area.

Liu Rusi neatly cleaned up the messy sheets in the clinic and said to Lin Qingzhi, "Mrs. Lin, you have worked hard today. You will also get a share of the consultation fee..."

"No need, I want to help." Lin Qingzhi shook her head and refused.

"Don't refuse. It's not a lot of money. I'm giving you six cents, just symbolic." Liu Rusi said with a smile.

Whether it is for Lin Qingzhi who could earn three hundred taels of silver by teaching, or for her who is now rich, this amount of money is insignificant, but the money still needs to be collected. Free things can easily make people take advantage of it.

Lin Qingzhi smiled and said softly, "Okay."

Not only Lin Qingzhi, but every girl who came to help got money, even Xue Fei who came in the afternoon. She was teaching the security guard to read in the stable across the street in the morning, so she didn't hear anything.

After everyone happily took the wedding money, Xuefei and Meihong were left in the ward to take care of the mother and baby.

After much urging from Chu Shiyu, Liu Rusi finally walked out of the women's clinic!

Ruifeng's eyes lit up, and he took two or three steps forward and hugged her! He hugged her so hard that she flew off the ground and spun around! He didn't care that there were people around!

"Let go, I'm so tired." Liu Rusi protested weakly. After the exciting work, she felt exhausted all of a sudden.

"Hmph...if you're tired, why don't you come out earlier..." Chu Shiyu complained in a low voice as he put the person down.

Everyone avoided looking away. Yue Ziqian and Lin Qingzhi looked at each other and nodded slightly. Their hard work was evident without words.

Only Qin Hao blinked his eyes. How could this be possible? Was his adoptive father going to abandon being his father and marry his mother? !

"It's time for dinner. Let's eat before leaving." Chu Shiyu suggested, trying to keep Lin Qingzhi because she had been busy with Liu Rusi for a long time today.

"Who cooked?" Liu Rusi asked curiously. After all, all the maids were in the female clinic in the afternoon. Although it didn't really require so many people...

The four people plus Yue Lin and his wife walked into the living room, and a sumptuous meal was already laid on the dining table.

Chu Shiyu pulled Liu Rusi over and asked her to sit at the head of the table, while answering, "It was sent by Zui Xiang Lou."

"Isn't Zui Xiang Lou the place where that family member works?" Liu Rusi hesitated for a moment in front of her seat, but still sat down. This is her home, so it is reasonable for her to sit at the head of the table.

“Zui Xiang Lou is somewhat famous in Beijing. You can try it. If you like it, you can have food delivered to you more often in the future.” Chu Shiyu then sat down on her left, little Qin Hao sat on her right, and Yue Ziqian and his wife sat next to the child.

Zhi Caiyun hesitated for a few moments and sat down next to Lin Qingzhi. She didn't care about the order, but sitting next to the prince must be extremely stressful!

After tasting a few dishes, Liu Rusi's eyes brightened up and she couldn't help but sigh inwardly that Zui Xiang Lou was quite good.

Chu Shiyu paused for a moment while observing her, and spoke at the right time after she swallowed a mouthful: "Do you like it? It just so happens that the cooking skills of the maids here are average, how about asking Zui Xiang Lou to deliver three meals in the future?"

Liu Rusi drank a mouthful of the soup before shaking her head and saying, "It's delicious, but it's heavy in oil and salt. It's okay to try it occasionally, but eating it three times a day is not good for your health. Besides, Zhuqing and the others are good at cooking, and their home cooking is good enough."

"Well, then I'll have food delivered when you're busy next time."

After finishing the meal, Yue Ziqian and his wife said goodbye.

Liu Rusi looked at the dark night and suggested, "It's so late, why don't you two stay here? The west wing is empty anyway."

But before the couple could decline, Chu Shiyu pulled her from behind and said coldly to the guards beside him: "It's getting late. Drive the carriage to send you two back. Make sure you get there safely."

Humph, wasn't he kicked out in the middle of the night? Why should others be able to stay here just because it's late?

Yue Ziqian had also somewhat understood Prince Duan's temperament, and said goodbye to the two as if nothing had happened: "I live not far away, and my wife and I can walk there in a minute or two. Thank you Madam Liu and the prince for your kindness."

Watched the couple leave leisurely.

Liu Rusi pulled little Qin Hao back, and Chu Shiyu followed them with big strides, holding her other hand very naturally.

Xingmu stared at him speechlessly, and couldn't help but reflect that maybe I shouldn't tell him that I need to consider it. Chu Shiyu is just hitting the snake with the stick! Originally, these intimate actions would be avoided in front of others, but now they are almost unscrupulous!

"Mom...Haohao wants a hug..." Little Qin Hao suddenly leaned on Liu Rusi, acting sticky and coquettish.

Liu Rusi turned around and saw her son's big eyes flickering. Her heart softened immediately and she wanted to pull back her hand to hug her son...

But the other party did not let go, but said quietly: "Qin Hao is getting heavier, and you will get tired easily if you hold him. Besides, boys should not be too clingy to their mothers."

Liu Rusi hesitated for a moment. Her son had grown up and she really couldn't spoil him all the time. She also didn't want to raise a mama's boy...

However, little Qin Hao was already dissatisfied with his adoptive father, and when he saw his adoptive father asking his mother not to hug him and his mother still hesitated, she could no longer hold back her grievance. She frowned, pursed her lips, and tears fell!

"Wuwu... don't listen to him! Haohao wants mom to hold him! Does mom not want Haohao anymore in the future? Wuwu..."

"How could mother not want Haohao? Stop imagining things." Liu Rusi felt distressed and wanted to hug her son to comfort him. She anxiously shook her hands away, but when he still did not let go, she immediately turned around and glared at him.

"If you can't stand the way I get along with my son and you want to interfere! Then there's no need to consider anything else! There's no way I can get along with you!"

Chu Shiyu's scalp tightened, and he quickly let go and defended himself: "No! I didn't interfere! I just felt that he was too heavy, and you were tired today..."

"Shut up!"

Liu Rusi scolded angrily, then picked up her son, patted him gently to comfort him, and walked towards the main room, completely ignoring the big tail that was following her anxiously on both sides.

After carrying Qin Hao into the right room, Liu Rusi became even angrier when she saw Chu Shiyu wanted to follow him in!

"If you take one more step, everything I told you today will be invalid!"

The long legs that had already taken a step forward were abruptly retracted halfway!

With a "bang", the door closed. It was not locked, but it blocked the adult man tightly.

From the room came the intermittent sound of a child crying and the faint sound of someone soothing him...

Chu Shiyu sighed in his heart. This guy is still someone you can't offend! You have to find a way to quickly repair the relationship, otherwise it might really collapse!
