Become a founding empress in ancient times with the system

Sheng Changan touched her belly and found it was very tight, but the baby still hadn't come out. If you hold it in for too long, not only adults but also children will have problems. "You can try pushing it down. Maybe it will work if you push together."

The women standing nearby looking at each other said, "Miss, we've heard what you said. In case of a difficult birth, the midwife would use a stick to press down, but none of us has ever done that. If it presses on the baby, I'm afraid..."

With the ginseng slice in her mouth, the woman regained some consciousness. She stretched out her sweaty hands and grabbed Sheng Changan's clothes. "Try it. If something goes wrong, it's because I don't have the blessing. If it really doesn't work, just save the child."

In this era, the way to save a baby is to perform a caesarean section. In this situation, there is no anesthesia, bacteria are everywhere, and there is no way to suture the abdomen after the incision. The woman will have no choice but to die.

"Xu Qing, you try it." Sheng Changan sighed. In this situation, he could only give it a try.

Xu Qing was a little at a loss as he knew nothing about childbirth.

After hesitating for a long time, a woman pushed Xu Qing away and said, "I'll do it." This was how she pushed her first child out.

Since she had decided to use this trick, the woman must have strong strength. It was too late to find a wooden stick, so she could only push with her hands.

The woman also knew that she couldn't scream at this time, but under the double pain, she bit her lips until they bled, but she still couldn't help it.

Fortunately, this trick did work and the baby came out smoothly, but instead more blood began to spread from under her.

At this time, the effect of acupuncture again was not great, so Xu Qing could only stuff the hemostatic pills he had prepared long ago into the wound.

Although the bleeding has slowly stopped, she definitely won't be able to walk tomorrow in her current condition.

The woman held her newborn baby in her arms, and said with relief in her tone, "Leader, you guys go ahead. I'll wait."

But the old lady knew very well that in this era, it was too dangerous for two women with a child of eleven or twelve years old, plus a newborn baby, to be here alone.

But it is unrealistic to let them all wait here. There are floods everywhere in the south now, and the court cannot take care of so many things at once. Once they react, I am afraid they will kill them all.

Even if they were fine, his son would definitely not be able to be saved. It would be fine if he died at his age, but his son was still young. So at this time he could only acquiesce.

Sheng Changan was moved by this scene. She had helped them, but these people were not greedy and asked her for help. This was quite rare.

"I can help you. In about two days, a woman will lead a team passing by here. You can find her and tell her my name. She will agree. My last name is Sheng."

"Thank you, thank you." The woman knelt down quickly. It was impossible to say that she had no selfish motives at the beginning, but later on she really helped her so much that she felt embarrassed to ask her to take them with her.

They are now a burden. "Why don't you let this child wait for the lady? Although he is young, he is quite flexible in his work. Call him master quickly." As he said this, he patted the child on the back.

"Master, I will work hard. I can do everything," he said while kowtowing.

Sheng Changan didn't have time to stop him, "Get up."

Xu Qing was very tactful at this time. He directly pulled the two of them up from the ground and said, "My lady has no shortage of servants. Just survive and don't let her kindness down."

The woman felt a little embarrassed, and she really couldn't think of how to repay the favor.

"It's okay, just like he said, it's good that you can survive." Sheng Changan looked at the head of the village and said, "Old man, I want to ask when you heard the news."

The old man was a little embarrassed, he really didn't know.

"Miss Sheng, why don't you let me explain it to you?" A pale young man came over, supported by an old woman beside him. She looked like his mother.

"My name is Sun Yuan. This is news from my classmates. It appeared around the second day of the flood, and most people knew about it after that."

"I suspect someone deliberately leaked the news. I don't know their purpose, but many people believed it. However, the law doesn't punish everyone, so I decided to lead the villagers in a fight."

It is true that the law does not hold everyone responsible, but the mastermind behind this incident will inevitably be killed as a warning to others. Judging from the young man's appearance, he should be aware of this.

But he still did it. Sheng Changan nodded calmly and said concisely: "Thank you."

"I'm glad you could help. We are all here thanks to you. I wonder if we can join you on this journey? We're just going the same way." Sun Yuan put forward his idea directly.

"I know this is presumptuous, and it's okay if you disagree."

Sheng Changan listened to the repeated "you" and glanced at Xu Qing with an ambiguous expression. "Okay, but if you want to follow, you must follow my rules."

"no problem."

"Xu Qing, go talk to him in detail. I'm sleepy." Sheng Changan yawned. He could sleep for at least two hours now.

"I'm sleepy too." But looking at Sheng Changan's kind eyes, he didn't dare to say anything.

The next morning, their village specially left two strong men to accompany the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. As for Sun Yuan, although his cold had improved a lot, his father advised him to wait two days before leaving to recuperate.

But he still insisted on following Sheng Changan and his group. "Dad, don't worry, I'm fine. This is a good opportunity."

Although the old man didn't know what this sentence meant, seeing that the old man had made up his mind, he said nothing.

Perhaps it had rained enough before, so the next few days were sunny, and Sheng Changan and his group could not avoid walking into the county town that was flooded.

There was no one inside, only corpses scattered on the street, emitting a rotting smell.

Sheng Changan stopped at the door and didn't move forward, frowning.

"Do we need to take a detour?" This road is the closest way back. Xu Qing didn't expect the situation here to be so serious.

There were collapsed wooden houses and corpses everywhere, even the corpses of children of a few years old were very common.

"Send someone in to burn them. Cover your mouth and nose with something. Don't touch the bodies directly. Shower immediately after returning. We will stop for now."

Now that we have seen it, we can't just leave it alone. Fortunately, the weather has been good these days and the wood has dried up, but that is also why the corpses started to stink so quickly.

All she could do was deal with what she saw, and she was powerless to do anything about what she couldn't see. However, in this way, the water source might have been polluted.
