Chapter 385 New Life
Chapter 385 New Life
The men immediately put their ears to the door frame to listen to the noise inside.
"Hey, why is the master silent?"
"Isn't he fainted?"
"Stop talking nonsense to me."
“Wow, Yaoyao, you have to do your best! You have to do your best!”
The next moment, the door was opened by Mingjue from the inside.
"Can you guys be quiet? A woman giving birth needs a quiet environment. If you have time to make a fuss here, why not find something to do?"
Hearing Mingjue's harsh criticism of those people, Lin Congmo chuckled.
"When Wan Ning gave birth to Yao Yao, Zi An and I stood at the door in panic, crying, and the midwife scolded us in the same way."
Xuanying nodded without saying anything, his thoughts gradually drifting away.
"Brother, what can we do at this time?" Huaichuan didn't understand. The master was giving birth, so did he want them to cheer him up?
Mingjue said, "Go prepare some food. Yaoyao is the first child, so the birth process will be long."
Then he said to Langyue: "Why don't you just go back and play the zither? The stars are used to your music and maybe they will be eager to come out after hearing it."
The two received the order and quickly prepared.
"What am I doing?" Ye Sinan asked.
Bai Huahua also looked at Mingjue seriously, waiting for his instructions.
"You two, each find a place to sit down, keep quiet, and wait for good news."
Ye Sinan and Bai Huahua looked at each other. Although they were reluctant to leave, they were finally persuaded by Lin Congmo and Xuan Ying to step aside.
The two of them sat down on the chairs, and although their bodies were still, their eyes would occasionally drift towards the closed door.
Lang Yue was ready, and as his fingertips lightly touched the strings, a melodious and peaceful sound slowly flowed out.
Not only did it comfort the people anxiously waiting outside the door, it also seemed to quietly penetrate into the delivery room through the closed door, giving Yao Jia a kind of invisible strength and comfort.
Nangong Xiu Lan, Shuang Hua, Gu Xi Yan, and even Le Wu You also hurried over, and they all sat or stood, waiting quietly.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and every passing second made people anxious.
In the delivery room, Yaojia is experiencing unprecedented challenges. The painkillers given by Mingjue have worn off and can no longer be used.
Fortunately, I just ate the longan, lotus seeds and bird's nest porridge made by Huaichuan, and I have regained a lot of strength.
She gritted her teeth and tried hard to cooperate with the guidance of the midwives and Mingjue.
"Master, hold on a little longer. The child has already appeared. Let's make a concerted effort and try our best—"
While giving instructions, Du Wenpo massaged Yaojia's abdomen to help the fetus adjust its position.
"Yaoyao, listen to the piano music outside and start to relax your body." Mingjue held her hand and reminded her softly.
The people outside the room seemed to feel the tense atmosphere in the delivery room. Their heartbeats unconsciously quickened and they began to move towards the door one by one.
In a place where no one could see, Nanshan stared at the tightly closed gate of Nangong Mansion, his hands clenched into fists, his nails deeply embedded in his palms, but he felt no pain at all.
His gaze seemed to want to penetrate those layers of barriers and give Yao Jia the most firm support.
"Yaoyao, you will be very brave, very brave..."
Finally, after a long wait, the clear cry of a baby was heard in the delivery room.
This cry was like a ray of warm sunshine that penetrated the dark clouds and illuminated everyone's heart.
"It's born! It's born!" the midwife shouted excitedly and wrapped the baby in a swaddle.
Outside the door, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and was replaced by the excited cheers of the crowd.
"Is it a boy or a girl?" Ye Sinan asked impatiently.
"Congratulations to the Nangong family on the birth of their daughter."
Grandma Du came out holding the baby in her arms, with a kind smile on her face, "Look at this little girl, she will definitely be a beauty in the future."
Everyone gathered around, vying to catch a glimpse of the little star.
Xiao Fengyi could no longer suppress his inner excitement, and walked quickly forward to take a look.
Little Xingxing's skin is as white as snow and his face is chubby. He was born not long ago, and his eyes kept rolling but couldn't open. Maybe he was tired of keeping them open, so he held his little face with his two little hands, opened his mouth, and yawned.
It instantly melted the hearts of all the fathers.
Everyone couldn't wait to grab the hug.
After much arguing, Lin Congmo directly gave the order to let Nangong Xiu Lan hold her first.
He was both excited and delighted. After holding the baby in his arms, he couldn't let it go and was reluctant to hand it to Shuanghua.
"Xingxing and Yaoyao looked exactly like each other when they were little."
Lin Congmo and Xuan Ying stood on his left and right, nodding repeatedly.
As if thinking of the scene when Yao Jia was born as a child, Lin Congmo's tears actually flowed out.
She wiped away her tears and reminded Nangong Xiulan, "Give the child to Yaoyao. Once the child is born, he needs to be fed."
“Yes, yes, yes.” Nangong Xiu Lan hurriedly carried Xingxing into the delivery room.
The delivery room had already been tidied up, and Yao Jia had been washed and changed into dry clothes.
Incense was burned in the room to block the smell of blood.
Beside the bed, Mingjue was feeding Yaojia water.
Seeing him come in, Yao Jia smiled at him gently, with a maternal light flashing in her eyes, which seemed to dispel all the fatigue and pain.
"Xiu Lan, let me see the child."
Nangong Xiu Lan gently brought Little Star close to her, her movements so gentle as if she was afraid of disturbing this little life that had just come into the world.
"My star, my little darling, mother loves you so much."
Little Xingxing also sensed his mother's call. He rubbed his little face gently in the cradle, then opened his pair of black and shiny eyes, looking at the world curiously.
Yao Jia's eyes were suddenly filled with tears.
I gently touched my daughter's tender cheek with my fingers, and my heart was filled with unprecedented satisfaction.
"She's so pretty, she looks just like you."
Yao Jia glanced at Nangong Xiu Lan, then at Xing Xing. The same willow-leaf eyes had already revealed who the child belonged to.
Nangong Xiu Lan understood what he meant and almost cried for joy.
Mingjue naturally also saw Xingxing's eyes, but he remained calm. It was just a matter of probability. As long as it was Yaoyao's child, it didn't matter whose it was.
At this time, the child in my arms made a "hmm" sound.
Du Wenpo reminded, "Master, the child is hungry and needs to be fed."
"Breastfeeding?" Yao Jia was a little surprised and had no idea how to respond.
Du Wenpo was naturally experienced and skillfully unbuttoned Yao Jia's clothes, "Master, I am sorry for the offense."
As he said this, he began to rub and massage, squeezing and releasing her milk.
"what--"
The pain from the squeezing made Yao Jia's eyes well up with tears, but Midwife Du still didn't stop.
"How is this more painful than giving birth?"
"Master, please bear with it. It will be a little painful when the breast is opened. It will be fine after the milk comes out."
Fortunately, after only six or seven squeezes, the milky yellow colostrum flowed out.
She immediately moved the child's head closer.
Yao Jia felt the strong suction force, and her heart was filled with warmth, but her chest was actually a little swollen and painful.
"Eat it, eat it. Look how hungry the little guy is."
Bai Huahua, who came in at some point, cried out in curiosity.
Yao Jia looked over when she heard the sound, and except for Lin Congmo and a few others who had not come in, the rest were gathered around the bed.
She glanced at several people one by one, but her eyes met with Xiao Fengyi's.
She was so frightened that she immediately pushed the child away from Du Wenpo's arms, turned over and lay down, covering her body tightly with a quilt.
Suddenly, Xingxing's loud and aggrieved cry was heard in the room.
Everyone looked at each other, not realizing why Yao Jia was like this.
Until he saw Xiao Fengyi's face.
"Why did you follow in?" Ye Sinan glared at him with an unhappy look on his face.
Several other people also began to accuse Xiao Fengyi of violating male ethics by entering someone else's wife's delivery room.
Nangong Xiu Lan had an even colder face and had no intention of rescuing him at all.
Xiao Fengyi said this with no intention of offending anyone, and did not dare to refute. He looked annoyed and hurried out.
Sitting in the carriage on the way back to the palace, I covered my face all the way.
"It's really embarrassing."
