Three or Two Things about Rebirth

Qiu Luming was walking with Qin Huifang in the corridor when he heard someone in the next ward whispering:

"Look, that girl who just walked over was a grown-up girl, how did she end up in the delivery room? Now nothing matters, it's a complete mess!

In the past, couples would go out one after the other, but now, couples are leaning against each other’s arms before they even get married, sitting on bicycles and hugging each other’s waists, how shameless they are!”

"Aunt, you are too pushy. People in the south are all like this now. There are even people kissing on Ge Street!"

"Oh my god, please stop talking, this is too shameless! Why don't you learn good things and just learn these messed up things! Your brother and his girlfriend have been very obedient in front of me, but if they dare to get together, I will beat him to death!"

"Haha, you are so capable, my daughter-in-law will definitely be obedient in the future."

"She dares not to listen!"

"Hehe, old aunt, you're so easy to scare people like this. If I don't marry you, you won't have time to cry."

"I'm crying? My son is capable, there are plenty of girls who are willing to take advantage of him!"

Qiu Luming accompanied Qin Huifang around and came back. She looked towards the next ward. She wanted to know what a woman with such a harsh and sarcastic voice looked like.

The woman in her fifties just turned her head and stared at Qiu Luming for two seconds before looking away.

He Manshu always said that a person's appearance is given by their parents before the age of thirty-five, and after the age of thirty-five, it is cultivated by themselves.

This woman was similar to the image that Qiu Luming had imagined in his mind when he suddenly heard the voice. She had droopy eyes, high cheekbones, two deep vertical lines between her eyebrows, and two deep downward bracket lines at the corners of her mouth. In short, she seemed extremely difficult to get along with.

Qiu Luming turned around and saw that Qin Huifang's contractions were becoming more and more intense. She could not stand at all, so she had to go back to the ward and lie down.

"Hey, auntie, is she listening to us talking?"

"Just listen!"

"You don't know that she has been a vicious person since she was a child. That group of people is called the Seven Weirdos of Jiayang. Their parents are all officials, and they dare to do anything!"

"Tsk, she dares to hit me, did you see she dare to fart just now?"

In the ward, Brother Qin hurried in with a mobile phone and handed it to Qin Huifang, "Quick! Jiaming!"

Qin Huifang grabbed the mobile phone and said, "Lu Jiaming, you bastard! I will kill you! I am in so much pain! Why don't you come back? I won't have any more children! I want to divorce you!"

After scolding for a while, she started crying again, casually grabbing teacups and fruits and throwing them on the ground. A bunch of relatives and female family members hurriedly avoided them. This big scene frightened the pregnant woman at the door who was crying and shouting just now, and she was silent, staring at Qin Huifang in a daze. The one in the middle bed had not moved the whole time, probably because the pain was not severe, and now he was also frightened by Qin Huifang.

Qiu Luming heard Lu Jiaming's incoherent apology on the phone and vowed to come back by train tonight.

Qin Huifang had cursed enough, and the contractions came again. She screamed, dropped her phone, and hugged her stomach. Lu Jiaming on the other end of the phone also cried out anxiously.

Qin Erge picked up the mobile phone from the broken pieces of the teacup with a distressed look on his face. "My dear, this is more than 10,000 yuan. How dare you drop it? Mom! You have to compensate me for her! And I spent ten minutes on the phone just now. I spent 20 yuan on it. You have to compensate me for it all!"

Mother Qin slapped Qin Er on the back of his head and said, "Get lost, what kind of place is this? If you have nothing to do, just get out and go home to get food for your sister!"

Qin Er walked out while pressing the mobile phone, muttering, "It still works... ah, there's a mark on it!"

Qin Huifang's cousin called the cleaner to sweep the floor, and then the nurse came and said she wanted to check Qin Huifang to see how many fingers dilated she was. Qin's mother's face suddenly turned black, "I've checked three times since this morning. Who cares how many fingers dilated it is? It's not time yet anyway. My daughter is not a practice for you!"

The nurse blushed. Knowing that this was the wife and daughter of the grain director, she did not dare to say anything more and urged the person at the door to go for the check. The person also hesitated and did not want to go. The nurse glared at him and said, "You are almost done. Don't blame me if you delay anything!"

The pregnant woman immediately gave in and followed him obediently to the examination room next door.

Qin Huifang seemed to suddenly think of something, and said to Qiu Luming and Han Meifen, "You two haven't gotten married yet, so just come and see me. Don't stay here, it's a mess."

"Why is it a mess? Being a mother is a sacred thing." Qiu Luming said with a smile. "But this room is a bit crowded. Why don't we all go to the corridor and wait so that you can have a good rest and recuperate."

After hearing this, most of the people in the room followed suit and went out. There were only two long chairs in the corridor, and they were both occupied at once. Qiu Luming and Han Meifen were unable to get a seat, so they had to stand by the window.

Everyone was waiting and not leaving. Qiu Luming had never experienced this before and didn't know whether he should go home or continue waiting here.

Just then, Qin Huifang's cousin came with Lu Jiaming's mother.

Mother Lu was in her early fifties, with short curly hair and a light grey sportswear, looking much younger than her actual age. She laughed as soon as she entered the ward, "Oh, dear, I'm late. There's nothing I can do. Today is the National Sports Meeting, and it's a long-arranged schedule that can't be changed. And I can't just leave so many people and so many things to do at work and do nothing!

Alas, I finally finished my work, and I hurried to see my daughter-in-law! Haha, how is it? Huifang, does it hurt? Mom will go home and make you a bowl of fragrant chicken soup and a bowl of thick millet porridge! "

In the corridor, Qin Huifang's other cousin snorted and turned her head away.

Mother Qin said softly, "No need, in-laws. Huifang started to make trouble in the middle of the night, so I took the hen out of the refrigerator and let it cool down. Her second sister-in-law started to stew it at six in the morning, and her second brother will be able to bring it over soon. Look, it's been ten hours, and my daughter can't even drink a sip of chicken soup. That would be a big joke for Jiayang!"

Sports meets and the like are secondary, they happen every year! My daughter will only have this one child in her lifetime! Our unit also has parades and the like! I won’t go at all, my grandson is more important than anything else, I am so old, why would I want to be in the limelight! "

"Look at you, my dear in-laws. You've already given birth to three children, but why are you still so flustered? The first child would take a day or two. Don't panic. If you panic, our Huifang will panic too. Don't panic, be steady!"

......

Qiu Luming and Han Meifen looked at each other, and Han Meifen whispered, "Huifang's mother-in-law is so powerful."

"Huifang is not a pushover either. Lu Jiaming will have a lot of fun in the future."

The two were chatting in low voices when suddenly a loud shout was heard from the ward, "What? Jiaming is coming back today? Is he stupid? What good will his coming back do? Can he take Huifang's pain or give birth to a child for her? There are only 20 days left before the exam to get the certificate. He's coming back now, but he won't be there for a few days before he has to go to Harbin again! What's the point of all that!"

It turned out that when Lu's mother learned that Lu Jiaming had to rush back overnight, she got furious.

"Haha, mother-in-law, Jiaming is the father of the child. He couldn't be with Huifang to give birth to the child, so he should come back to take care of her during the confinement period!" Qin's mother said coldly.

The two mothers-in-law had been arguing with each other, and Qin Huifang yelled at them to get out, and only then did they stop.

Qiu Luming remembered that Fang Yuan's mother was also a powerful character, and couldn't help but sigh that among these women who grew up under the red flag, each one was self-reliant and confident, strong and domineering, and it was difficult to find a gentle and intellectual one.

At half past eleven, Qin's second brother brought chicken soup to Qin Huifang, but Qin Huifang couldn't eat a single bite. Qin's mother said anxiously, "You couldn't eat breakfast. If you don't eat now, how can you have the energy to give birth to a child?"

After much persuasion, Qin Huifang finally drank half a bowl of chicken soup and ate a piece of chicken. ——She started howling again.

Qiu Luming and Han Meifen also went to the small restaurant opposite the hospital to eat a bite and then rushed back immediately.

Who would have thought that in just twenty minutes or so, Qin Huifang entered the delivery room, and even the pregnant woman on the bed at the door also entered the delivery room.

Everyone moved to the door of the delivery room. Mother Qin paced back and forth at the door, listening to the screams from inside, and couldn't sit down at all.

Because two people were giving birth at the same time, Lu's mother was a little anxious, "Oh my God, how come they both went through the same door? Will the babies be mixed up?"

After she said that, Qin's mother also became a little anxious. She forced herself to remain calm and said, "No, Doctor Jiang has delivered at least 800 babies, if not a thousand, and he has never made a mistake!"

Mother Lu suddenly slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, I didn't bring any money. Do I have to give the doctor a red envelope?"

Mother Qin rolled her eyes and said, "I've given it all."

"Oh, that's good, that's good!"

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the door of the delivery room finally opened, and the nurse called out, "Song Shuang, Song Shuang's family!"

The mother-in-law and husband of the woman in labor at the door all rushed over.

The nurse smiled and said, "A boy! 7 pounds and 2 ounces!"

"Ah, thank you, thank you!" The family member smiled and thanked the nurse repeatedly, as if the baby was born by the nurse.

"Ah! A boy!" Mother Lu fell asleep in a chair at the door of the delivery room. When she heard the nurse's voice, she jumped up, rushed over, and took the child in her arms. "Haha, I have a grandson!"
