Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

"Okay, you'll know whether your skills are good or not when you put them to use."

Wen Shu said, "How about you become my subordinate and work for me...?"

When Xie Youcai heard this, he looked at Wen Shu with an indescribable look.

"I just like living this simple life and having enough to eat. It's enough for my brothers to eat. I don't want to sell myself into slavery."

Wen Shu glanced at the village chief and didn't respond.

She captured all the people in the village in one fell swoop, and she was dreaming of doing some small robberies and living a simple and leisurely life in the future.

I thought he was still the village chief——

“This is, you should think about it carefully and don’t rush to answer.

Your hill is nice, with a good terrain and a better location. But compared to my place, it's not as good.

Working under them will not make you sell yourself into slavery."

When Xie Youcai heard that Wenshu's place was better than his, and thought of the group of brothers following him, he was a little hesitant for a while.

At this moment, the door of the side room in the corner creaked open.

Jueyu hurriedly ran out of the house with a panic-stricken look on her face.

Wen Shu immediately stopped talking and asked, "What happened? Is the baby born?"

"I'm going to be a father. Has my wife given birth yet? What did she give birth to?..."

When Xie Youcai saw this, he immediately stood up, looked at Jueyu, and then looked into the house.

I'm almost heading in that direction...

The hair on Jueyu's forehead was wet with sweat, and water droplets were dripping down her fingers on her hands.

Just as he was about to report the situation in the room, he heard two people asking questions in succession.

Especially under Xie Youcai's scorching gaze, Jueyu thought of the situation in the delivery room, and perhaps because of nervousness, she swallowed unconsciously.

"Girl, I'm afraid the woman in labor is in trouble!"

Jueyu looked towards Wenshu, her voice unconsciously trembling. Although she was also a woman and knew that childbirth was difficult for women, she had never seen such a scene.

The woman had a hard time giving birth, and the baby was lying feet down.

After the midwife examined the baby, she said that it was difficult for both mother and child to survive, and there was a risk that both mother and child might die.

The doctor ignored the strict rules between men and women and gave the woman acupuncture directly. It took a lot of effort to make her regain consciousness.

Although the person regained consciousness, childbirth was still difficult.

Jue Yu came out to find ideas for this purpose.

"What's going on? What's the situation inside?" Wen Shu asked.

"The baby was born without a sound, and the mother is bleeding heavily. The doctor is trying to save her." Jueyu's voice became softer as she spoke.

"What, what happened to my wife, how is my wife...

My child, what happened to my child?"

After Jueyu finished speaking, Xie Youcai could no longer remain calm and ran to the room where the woman was giving birth.

Wenshu immediately got up and followed. When she reached the door, she heard a commotion in the house.

Xie Youcai was the loudest, clamoring to go in and see his wife and children.

The midwife inside was also very imposing. "What are you doing here at this time? Don't you see that everyone here is very busy?"

"Where's my wife? How's my wife? And the child..."

Xie Youcai didn't mind the man's rude remarks to him, and he was only thinking about his wife and children.

He was usually strong and used to being domineering in the village. When he heard that something bad had happened to his wife and child, he didn't care about anything else.

But I only realized it after I forced my way in here.

If he continues to act rashly, he won't be able to help them and might even cause trouble for them.'

The midwife was standing by the bed, preparing to give medicine to the pale-faced woman lying on the bed.

Because of this person's disturbance, I almost spilled the medicine in the bowl.

"Right now is a matter of life and death. If you come in and cause trouble now, it will be too late for the mother to die, right?"

The midwife has been busy since yesterday and has not had time to eat. On the way, the kind-hearted people in the besieged village gave her some bread to eat, so that she had the strength to deliver the baby.

She had originally been captured by the village chief and suffered an unexpected disaster. Now the village chief had also become a defeated opponent, and all the anger that she had been holding back was released all at once.

At this time, the midwife knew who the big and small kings of the village were.

After saying that, he didn't forget to glare at her.

"I, I'm just worried about my children and my wife." From the moment Xie Youcai stepped into the room, he felt surrounded by a strong smell of blood.

After the midwife yelled at him, he finally came to his senses and did something subconsciously.

But even so, he couldn't stop looking into the house.

Jingniang was lying on the bed, her hands hanging down unconsciously, and her exposed hands were completely bloodless.

His heart skipped a beat as he looked at the white-bearded doctor giving Jingniang acupuncture beside the bed, shaking his head from time to time.

The midwife was trying to pour the dark yellow medicine in the bowl into the unconscious Jingniang's mouth, and the medicine leaked out from her neck and chest, soaking a large area.

No—where’s the child!

Turn around and look around.

He saw that the female head of the family was squatting in the basket behind the door at some point, and he took a closer look.

A pale pink ball, a child not even as big as a civet cat.

But the child was very obedient and didn't cry or make a fuss. He allowed himself to be taken out of the basket, just like Jingniang on the bed.

When Xie Youcai saw this scene, his heart ached.

He walked forward and wanted to take a look at the child. He had just heard the girl say that the child was gone.

Looking at the current situation, it will be difficult not only for the child but also for the mother herself.

Taking a good look at the child can be considered as fulfilling the father-son relationship in this life.

But before he could say anything, he saw the head of the family holding the child and walking quickly to a table nearby.

Remove the cloth wrapped around the child and lay the child on the table.

He wanted to speak to stop her, but the girl spoke first.

……

Wen Shu looked at the child on the table and asked the doctor, "What's wrong with this child?"

The doctor had just finished inserting the needle in his hand when he heard the question.

Following the sound, I saw the child lying on the table.

The doctor sighed, shook his head helplessly and said, "The child has no pulse and died at birth."

At this time, the midwife walked to the side of the table, looked at the child on the table, and said with regret, "This child's fetal position is not right. I tried my best to help him turn the fetal position.

The woman had used up all her strength and didn't even have the strength to give birth.

When she came back, there wasn't much amniotic fluid in her belly, and with all the tossing and turning in the middle, the baby in her belly must have been in trouble.

This woman in labor also suffered.

The doctor prescribed strong medicine, gave me an injection, and then reached through the door to slowly and forcefully guide the child out."

As a woman, it was the first time for Wenshu to truly feel the difficulties of being a woman.

"Why did this child lose his breath..."

The midwife looked at the baby and said, "I don't know if the baby was held in the womb for too long and without amniotic fluid...it's gone."

As she spoke, her eyes were still looking at the woman in labor on the bed.
