Around the second quarter of Yin hour, it is the time when the rooster crows.

At this time, the servants in the mansion had already gotten up to work. Gu Jingxi usually got up at this time, but today he didn't get up until he was taking a bath. After waking up for a while, he saw that the people around him were sleeping soundly, so he continued to sleep.

Meng Jinyao was sleeping well, but she had a dream. She dreamed that a little baby called her mother. Just when she was about to respond, she suddenly woke up and subconsciously touched her belly.

After a while, Meng Jinyao heard a "pop" sound. It was not loud, but she could hear it. Then she felt like something was flowing out of her body. She instantly realized something and quickly reached out to push the man next to her.

Gu Jingxi woke up quickly, and in a daze, he heard Meng Jinyao say in a nervous voice: "Husband, husband, I think I'm about to give birth."

Hearing this, he lost all sleep in an instant and couldn't care about anything else. He quickly got out of bed, and he really got out of bed.

He turned over violently and fell directly to the ground.

Meng Jinyao: "?"

She asked blankly: "Husband, what's wrong with you?"

"No, it's okay."

After Gu Jingxi said that, he stood up immediately, put on his slippers, and left the bedroom as quickly as possible.

Meng Jinyao was a little confused. Why did her husband run away when she was about to give birth?

When Gu Jingxi came out of the house, he found the maid and asked the maid to notify Granny Wen to come over. He also asked the maid to invite the Baili imperial doctor to come over in case of unforeseen needs. Finally, he asked the maid to notify the old mother and two sisters-in-law. , they have experience, and with them around, Ayao won't be so scared.

Back in the room, Gu Jingxi sat on the edge of the bed, held Meng Jinyao's hand and said comfortingly: "Ayao, don't be afraid, I'm with you. I've just sent people to ask Po Wen and the imperial doctor to come over. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

His voice was trembling, and he didn't know whether he was trying to comfort Meng Jinyao or himself.

Meng Jinyao saw that Gu Jingxi was so nervous that cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Even though she was also very nervous, she still had a smile on her face: "Husband, I'm fine. I feel fine now. I've been waiting for so long that the baby is about to come out, but now I don't feel so good." Anxious.”

Gu Jingxi felt that she was pretending to be relaxed and asked distressedly: "Ayao, does it hurt?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head gently: "I haven't felt any obvious pain yet."

Gu Jingxi was doubtful: "It really doesn't hurt?"

Meng Jinyao replied: "I don't feel it yet."

Seeing that she was in good condition, Gu Jingxi believed her words for the time being and talked with her.

Mrs. Wen arrived earlier than Madam Gu and the others. She observed Meng Jinyao's condition and said, "Madam, it's still early for you to give birth. This is your first child, so it will take a longer time. Once labor pains appear, it will take a few hours. I guess it won't be born until the evening." After that, he told Gu Jingxi that he needed to have someone prepare hot water and all the necessary things first.

How long does it hurt?

Gu Jingxi frowned when he heard this.

Meng Jinyao was calmer than him. After all, she knew her own body well. She felt good about herself at the moment, so she was not too panicked. She said, "Husband, I want to eat something, otherwise I may not have the strength to give birth to the baby."

When Gu Jingxi heard this, he hurriedly said, "I'll have someone prepare it now."

Not long after, Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Chen rushed over to visit Meng Jinyao.

At this time, Meng Jinyao was being fed breakfast by Gu Jingxi and was in good spirits.

When Mrs. Gu learned that her daughter-in-law was about to give birth, she was happy at first, and then became worried. Although now she saw that her daughter-in-law was well, she still felt worried, and asked with concern: "Ayao, how do you feel now?"

Meng Jinyao replied truthfully: "Don't worry, mother, I'm fine now."

Just after she finished speaking, she suddenly felt tightness and hardness in her lower abdomen, accompanied by a sinking pain in her lower abdomen. The pain made her frown. Because of this sudden pain, her tension reached its peak in an instant, and she felt fear in her heart. , subconsciously holding Gu Jingxi's hand.

Gu Jingxi was also startled. He quickly put down the bowl and asked nervously: "Ayao, what's wrong with you?"

Meng Jinyao touched her stomach and replied: "It hurts, my stomach hurts."

Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Zhang were both experienced. When they saw this, they knew that uterine contractions had begun and labor pains would occur. As the labor pains became more frequent and the pain intensified, they could give birth by opening the uterus with ten fingers.

Ms. Chen comforted her, "Don't be afraid, third brother and sister. Take a deep breath and relax. It'll be okay."

Mrs. Gu thought of the time when she gave birth to a baby, and Po Wen said that hot water can relieve the pain of contractions. She turned around and asked Chunliu: "Have you prepared the hot water?"

Chunliu replied: "Old madam, we have asked someone to boil the hot water. It should be ready by now."

Mrs. Gu ordered: "Bring hot water in later, and for the rest, follow Po Wen's instructions."

After they came in, Mother Wen stood aside and acted like a transparent person. She rarely saw women from wealthy families giving birth. Mother-in-law was so nervous that she even went into the delivery room to visit in person. She usually waited outside or went to the delivery room. The old lady of the Gu family was so nervous in the Buddhist hall to pray to the gods for the safety of the mother and child. It was probably because this was the first child of Marquis Changxing, a child she had been waiting for for so many years.

Facing these people, Mrs. Wen felt pressured and was cautious in speaking and doing things, which affected her performance, so she thought carefully and said: "Master Marquis, old lady, eldest lady, second lady, the delivery room is a filthy place, how about you guys Go out first?"

Seeing her concerns, Mrs. Gu comforted her daughter-in-law for a while, and then took the other two daughters-in-law out to wait.

Meng Jinyao's abdominal pain had subsided now. Seeing that Gu Jingxi was still there, she said softly: "Husband, please go out first. I don't feel any pain now."

Gu Jingxi said: "I'm not going anywhere, I'm just here with you."

Meng Jinyao felt warm in her heart, but she still insisted: "I'm really fine. The delivery room is dirty. You can go out. I heard that men are not allowed in the delivery room."

Gu Jingxi said warmly: "Don't listen to Po Wen's nonsense. Why is giving birth to a child dirty? Our children are very clean."

Po Wen: "...?"

She is not saying that the baby is unclean, she means that women will bleed when giving birth. This blood is filthy and the scene is bloody. The delivery room is an unlucky place of blood. Men will lose their luck in such a dirty place. , this is not what she said, it has been said like this since ancient times.

However, Po Wen was also very sensible and said: "Madam, it's early for you to give birth. It's okay to let Mr. Hou stay here with you, and then let Mr. Hou go out when you are about to give birth."

Gu Jingxi glanced at Po Wen appreciatively.

Po Wen: "..."

Fortunately, she knew how to watch her words, otherwise she would have been disliked today. Mrs. Hou was also lucky. She met such a good husband, a husband from another family. After her water broke, she was waiting for delivery in the delivery room. She was taken care of by the maid and the mother-in-law. The husband did not set foot in this place. If you don't take a step into a dirty place, you're afraid of getting bad luck.
