After traveling through time, she still led the villagers to make money as a county magistrate

"Madam, the gifts are ready. Please see if there is anything missing." Xier handed the gift list to Ye Ranqing.

While looking at the gift list, Ye Ranqing pointed to the box beside him and said, "This is what I prepared. Please ask someone to take it together."

"What has Qing'er prepared? I'd like to take a look." Song Zhixing stood at the door dressed neatly.

Song Zhixing had grown a lot taller in the past six months, almost eight feet tall. If he were just an ordinary man, Ye Ranqing could spend the rest of her life with him, but he wasn't from an ordinary family, so it was impossible for Ye Ranqing to be with him forever.

Ye Ranqing, "They are just some women's clothes. Doctor Chu got married a few days ago, so I thought of giving him some women's clothes and children's clothes. This is what he likes, isn't it?"

Song Zhixing took back his hand that had touched the box awkwardly, "Since these are women's clothes, it is not convenient for your husband to check them. Xier, please record the gift list and remember to indicate that they are from my wife."

Ye Ranqing felt uncomfortable when he heard him say the word "husband". "Your Highness, you and I haven't gotten married yet. You can't say the word 'husband'. It would disrupt the etiquette. Isn't Your Highness the one who cares most about etiquette?"

To strike the snake at its most vulnerable part, Song Zhixing said, "Although it is only a matter of time before you and I get married, but since Qing'er has said so, I will just be patient for another month."

As a young man full of vigor and vitality, Song Zhixing had thought about Ye Ranqing countless times since he had sex with her. However, Ye Ranqing insisted on leaving the palace, so he suppressed these thoughts and focused all his energy on doing things.

It was not easy for him to wait until Ye Ranqing agreed to be his concubine, but she also refused to let him touch her on the grounds of the baby in her belly. He really looked down on other women, so he could only use his Five Finger Mountain.

So what he said about patience is a double entendre.

But Ye Ranqing pretended not to understand what he meant, "I'm afraid the prince can't go with me."

Song Zhixing asked, "Why?"

"Think about it! Your Highness, I'm so pregnant, and you're standing next to me with so many gifts. What will the people think when they see you? How will rumors spread? I'm afraid your reputation will be damaged."

He would marry a wife in the future, and the candidate for her was the daughter of the Minister of Rites in the capital, a true scholarly family, a wealthy and powerful family who cared deeply about etiquette. Song Zhixing thought for a moment and agreed. "Alright, then I won't go with you. Xier, you have to take good care of the lady, and I'll send more guards." Ye Ranqing got on the carriage, and Xier accompanied him.

"Xier, what kind of person do you think the prince is?" Ye Ranqing touched her belly and lowered her head in thought.

"Madam, the prince is naturally a very good person." Xier said with a smile.

"I always feel that I can't see through him." Ye Ranqing sighed. When I first met him, I thought he was just a child, a child who went to a foreign land. Later, when he came to Qinghe County, I felt that even if he was the leader of a place, he couldn't do whatever he wanted. He was restrained by the local ethnic forces everywhere. Since I became pregnant, I felt that he was just an ordinary man, but not so ordinary. He would also be scheming sometimes. But think about it, as a prince, a prince who was safe and sound during the change of dynasties. How could he be simple?

The carriage drove forward and finally arrived at the Chu Clinic. Ye Ranqing got off the carriage and saw Doctor Chu and his new wife waiting at the door, their faces filled with happy smiles.

"Doctor Chu, sister-in-law, I have been bothering you these days. Here are some gifts. I hope you like them." Ye Ranqing handed over the gifts.

"How can this be so embarrassing? Although Miss Ye is here to study, she has a solid foundation in medicine and has helped me a lot." Doctor Chu declined.

"This is a gift for my sister. I am pregnant like my sister, so I made some extra children's clothes. They are not expensive." Ye Ranqing ordered someone to carry the gift box to Mrs. Chu.

"Sister, open it and take a look. Do you like it?"

Mrs. Chu was a lively and active person with a chivalrous spirit. "I won't look at the things. Sister, you know my preferences. Needless to say, it must be good-looking. I'll accept it... Ouch."

Mrs. Chu suddenly covered her belly and said, "The baby... seems to be about to be born."

"Ouch!" Ye Ranqing also covered her stomach, amniotic fluid flowing out from between her legs, "Mine... seems to be the same..."

Everyone present was in a panic.

"Don't worry, Miss Xier, help Miss Ye into the clinic first, and follow me. There is a delivery room in the backyard." After all, Doctor Chu started studying medicine since he was a child, and he also knew something about women's childbirth.

Originally, the clinic did not have a delivery room. In that era, midwives were invited to deliver babies at home. It was Dr. Chu who opened a separate delivery room after he knew his wife was pregnant. Firstly, he planned to deliver the baby himself. Secondly, if he used the house where he usually lived to deliver the baby, it would be easy for bacterial infection. This delivery room would be disinfected with alcohol regularly, so it was relatively clean. Of course, these were all told to him by Ye Ranqing. He thought it made sense, so he set up such a delivery room.

There are two rooms separated from the delivery room, one for Mrs. Chu and one for Ye Ranqing.

Doctor Chu originally did not plan to separate the room. It was Mrs. Chu who suggested it. She said that she heard that many women would take several days to give birth, and since Doctor Chu had to stay with them the whole time, there must be a small room for them to rest.

"Fortunately, my sister is smart and prepared two rooms and beds." Ye Ranqing looked at Mrs. Chu gratefully.

"Miss Xier, please ask someone to invite the midwife and the prince," Doctor Chu arranged.

Suddenly, there were cries of pain coming from both rooms, and Doctor Chu could only open a few fingers for his wife.

As for Miss Ye, she could only comfort her through the door, "Don't worry, Miss Ye, the midwife will be here soon, just be patient."

After all, gender is a big deal. Although Ye Ranqing thinks it doesn't matter much, as a doctor, saving lives is the most important thing, but the times are like this. Just because she doesn't mind doesn't mean that Doctor Chu doesn't mind, and Mrs. Chu doesn't care.

Fortunately, she had also learned the breathing method during childbirth, so she did not feel as painful as she had imagined.

"The midwife is here"

Xier pulled a white-haired old woman into the delivery room

"Please wait a moment, Miss Xier, please ask someone to bring a basin of hot water. I, the old lady, please disinfect your whole body with alcohol before delivering Miss Ye." Doctor Chu saw that the two were about to rush in and stopped them.

This was the first time the midwife heard that she had to use alcohol to disinfect before delivering a baby. She only knew that tools that helped with delivery, such as scissors, needed to be disinfected with fire before cutting the umbilical cord.

However, human life is at stake, so the midwife didn't say anything and obediently disinfected herself. "Excuse me, Doctor Chu, which one needs an old woman to deliver a baby?"

Doctor Chu: "Miss Ye next to you"

The midwife entered Ye Ranqing's delivery room

Ye Ranqing's screams were obviously smaller than Mrs. Chu's. The midwife looked at Ye Ranqing in surprise and said, "Madam, you know how to use breathing techniques to relieve pain."

Although Ye Ranqing didn't scream as loudly as Madam Chu at this time, the pain in her labor was getting more and more intense. She had no intention of talking to her. She just hoped that the baby would be born quickly so that she would suffer less.

At this time, Song Zhixing hurried over and saw Xier waiting outside the door. "How is Madam? Can the midwife come?"

Seeing her prince so nervous, Xier was also incredibly scared. "The midwife is here, but...but..."

"But what?" Song Zhixing clenched his hands.

Xier was already nervous, and when Song Zhixing startled her, she fell to her knees. "I only heard Madam Chu's screams, but I didn't really hear Madam Chu's screams."
