Golden Branch

Wang Mian went through more than two hours of labor and suffered great physical and mental pain.

She was still conscious when she gave birth to her first and second children.

She clearly felt one child after another being squeezed out, and clearly heard the crying of the babies, as well as the encouragement and comforting voices of her best friend at the door.

But by the third time, she couldn't hold on any longer.

The pain in her body had reached a point where she could no longer bear it, and her mind began to wander.

Before falling into coma, he vaguely heard the words "There is, there is one more" and "Young Madam, try harder."

She was like a drowning person, the water had already reached her head and she was about to suffocate to death.

At the critical moment, she suddenly realized: I can't sleep! There is another child! I have to give birth to him!

Wang Mian bit his lips hard, and squeezed hard with his last bit of strength.

puff!

Finally, she felt relieved from her constipation.

However, no loud baby cry was heard.

Wang Mian was half-conscious, but still instinctively fearful: the child didn't cry, could there be something wrong?

She tried desperately to open her eyes, but her eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.

She wanted to speak, but she didn't even have the strength to open her mouth.

Just as Wang Mian was struggling hard, a thin, weak cry rushed into her eardrum.

Cried!

Finally cried!

Child, it's okay!

After confirming this, Wang Mian let out the breath she had been holding and fell into a deep sleep.

In a trance, she seemed to hear the voice of her best friend:

"Amian! Amian!!"

"What's going on? What happened to the young lady? Why is there no sound?"

Wang Mian really wanted to tell her: Ajiu, don’t worry, I’m fine!

But her condition was very strange, as if her soul had left her body.

He was still vaguely conscious, but he could no longer control his body.

She could hear Ajiu's voice and even a slight tremor in her words.

Ajiu is worried about her!

She is indeed her best friend, the beloved relative she chose for herself!

Ajiu came and was right next to him, and Wang Mian felt extremely relieved.

The soul that had floated out of her body also returned safely, and her world became completely dark.

"…Reporting to the princess, the young lady simply fell asleep from exhaustion. She'll wake up soon after a short rest!"

Wang Mian fell asleep, but the midwife, the doctor and others did not dare to slack off.

After they checked Wang Mian's body, they reported back cautiously with trembling voices.

Wang Heng didn't say anything.

After hearing the cry of the third child, she finally couldn't help it, asked someone to open the door, and rushed in herself.

As soon as I entered the door, a strong smell of blood hit me in the face.

The delicate Wang Heng instinctively wrinkled her nose.

But she still insisted on walking to the delivery bed.

One midwife was cleaning the newborn baby, while the other was helping Wang Mian expel the placenta, lochia, etc.

The female doctors were also busy, one was taking the patient's pulse and the other was helping to examine the patient's body.

Wang Mian's personal maids were busy but not chaotic, cleaning her and preparing clean underwear for her.

When Wang Heng rushed in, Wang Mian had already been cleaned up and carried up by two or three strong women.

The other slaves quickly pulled off the bedding stained with blood, amniotic fluid and other dirt on the delivery bed.

After changing into new bedding that was clean, soft, and filled with the scent of sunshine, the maids carefully put Wang Mian back on the delivery bed.

"Amian!"

Wang Heng walked quickly to the bedside, without even looking at the three swaddling clothes lined up in a row.

In her eyes, there is only the best friend who has been with her for more than ten years.

After being properly dealt with, Wang Mian no longer looked as embarrassed as before.

Her hair had been braided into a long scorpion braid.

After half a day of labor, my hair was wet with sweat, but my hairstyle was not messy.

All the hair was braided tightly at the back of the head, revealing the smooth forehead.

The sweat on the forehead, face and neck was all wiped clean.

Even the inner clothes that were soaked with sweat were changed.

Except for his face which was still a little pale, Wang Mian's condition had returned to normal.

The air still had the smell of blood, but it was also scented with soap.

Wang Heng's nose twitched slightly. She was very familiar with this smell.

This is the rose soap that Wang Mian usually uses. It has a subtle rose fragrance, but it is not too strong.

The faint fragrance is almost imperceptible, making people feel as if they are in a flower garden.

Wang Heng knew that this should be the smell of underwear and bedding washed with soap.

"Well, these servants of Amian are not bad! Although they are not life-long servants, they are well-behaved and capable!"

Wang Heng was secretly satisfied.

Xiao Wuji is not at home, and there is no reliable elder to take charge. It is rare that Amian's servants can still serve Amian carefully and attentively.

In addition to the character and ability of the slaves themselves, what is more important is that A Mian has the ability to train and manage her subordinates!

Wang Heng gently pulled one of Wang Mian's hands out from under the quilt and stretched out three fingers to probe upwards.

She was taking Wang Mian's pulse.

Yes, as a disciple of Mr. Shen, Lou Yu was proficient in literature, history, mathematics, medicine, divination and other subjects, and Wang Heng also had some knowledge of them.

It’s just that Wang Heng is lazy and spoiled, and is not willing to spend all her time on studying.

She only had a "little understanding" of it, not the proficiency that Lou Yu had.

However, the "brief understanding" of the disciples of the famous scholars is also relative.

The key is that Wang Heng has too many and too good resources.

Whether it was the Wang family's collection or the Lou family's spoils of war on the battlefield, many of the "textbooks" Wang Heng used for study were "legendary" ancient books and rare editions.

In addition to books, there are also countless handwritten notes from our predecessors over the past hundreds of years.

It’s okay for other subjects, but medicine requires “experience” the most.

Although Wang Heng is a "half-baked" doctor, she has read more medical books and seen more cases than many so-called famous doctors!

Even if it is just talk, it will be useful if you read it more.

"..."

Wang Heng quietly took Wang Mian's pulse. Wang Mian's pulse was relatively calm, but his qi and blood were a little depleted.

This is normal.

She had just had a difficult childbirth and was exhausted.

However, Amian was in good health, and the delivery was safe and sound.

Just take some good supplements and you can make up for it!

Seeing that Wang Heng's tense little face finally relaxed a little, everyone in the delivery room finally let go of their worries.

The princess is not angry!

They successfully survived the disaster!

……

Wang Mian fell into a coma and woke up after sleeping for half an hour.

She was confused at first, and seemed not to know what had happened to her.

However, Wang Mian finally reacted after seeing the surrounding environment and the faint crying sounds.

I remembered!

She remembered it all!

Just this morning, she suddenly started.

There was spotting, the amniotic fluid broke, and then the baby was born with the sound of "poof, poof, poof."

Wang Mian: ...

"I actually gave birth to a human being?"

"Oh no, that's not right, not one!"

"One, two, three... Holy shit, there are three?!"

so amazing!

How incredible!

Wang Mian looked at her best friend standing by the bed, then at the three little babies brought in by the wet nurse, and she felt as if she were in a dream.

She murmured to herself, she couldn't believe it.

Although I have lived two lives, the total age of both lives is only forty years.

Although she always feels that she is old in mentality, most of the time, she still feels like a baby.

At the age of 20, she would still be a clear-headed and foolish college student in modern times, but she actually became a mother?

A very "short drama" of triplets from one birth?

"Aren't I a supporting actress? How could I be treated like a leading actress?"

Wang Mian seemed to be anesthetized. Even with his eyes open, his brain was still confused.

"Yeah! You gave birth to three!"

"A Mian, you're amazing! Twins are rare, but I didn't expect you to have three!"

Wang Heng couldn't help laughing when she saw her best friend looking confused.

She sighed, "Two sons and a daughter. Amian, you're the upgraded version of twins!"

As an ancient native, Wang Heng's thinking is obviously still "feudal" -

For a big family, having only one legitimate son is not enough.

Children are difficult to raise.

Being born does not mean that you can grow up safely.

Wang Heng is not a curse, this is the truth—

Not to mention poor families, even the powerful and wealthy, and even the queen, had children who died young.

A single child is definitely not enough for a noble who wants to inherit a title, and it may even be dangerous.

Wang Mian was amazing. She gave birth to two legitimate sons at once.

Even if you don't have children anymore, you don't have to worry about inheritance issues.

Of course, according to Wang Heng's ancient thinking, if there is no legitimate son, there can still be a concubine's son.

Wang Heng had just experienced the birth of her eldest daughter. She was worried and frightened. She was afraid to face the tragedy of "one corpse, two lives".

But when a woman gives birth, the probability of the baby being born is 50% and the probability of the baby dying is 50%.

The greatest blessing is that both mother and child are safe.

Wang Heng loves herself the most, and she will never sacrifice her life for a man's inheritance or for her children.

In order to avoid the possible "death during childbirth" after marriage, Wang Heng began to deliberately train slaves who could serve as concubines when she was in her teens.

Zheng Shisan was originally chosen by Wang Heng as a concubine.

Unfortunately, my brother changed his mind and did not allow Zheng Shisan to be a concubine. He even decided to marry her off.

But don't worry, without Zheng Shisan, she can still choose other concubines.

Wang Heng did love Chong'er, but she had not fully come to understand. She had a vague understanding of love affairs between men and women, so she was not too jealous.

Moreover, for a royal lady like Wang Heng, slaves, concubines, etc. could not even be considered as human beings.

They are tools used to give birth to children.

Wang Heng was afraid of childbirth and didn't want to take the risk herself, but she still needed a child, so she let someone else do it.

Wang Heng thought so herself and made preparations in secret.

But Wang Heng knew that her approach was not suitable for Amian.

Amian is the most jealous woman in Dayu.

In order to prevent her husband from taking a concubine, she would rather be "jealous".

In the future, if she gave birth to a bastard due to her selfishness, her image of "loving her husband deeply and not allowing anyone else to come" would collapse.

The acting must be complete and the character cannot collapse, otherwise it will not be a simple loss of power, but may be irreparable.

Wang Mian's pregnancy with three children, two sons and a daughter, is very good. It's a double insurance policy, a real blessing...
