Chapter 189: Xiao Dang is born and Jia Zhang's ridicule
Chapter 189: Xiao Dang is born and Jia Zhang's ridicule
On the weekend, the sun is high in the sky.
A few days after Cui Yuan was promoted to a regular employee, peace returned to the hospital.
"Ah!" Qin Huairu suddenly covered her stomach and screamed in pain.
Jia Dongxu immediately supported Qin Huairu and asked anxiously, "Huairu, what's wrong?"
Qin Huairu frowned slightly and panted, "Dongxu, I...I think I'm about to give birth!"
"She's about to give birth?" Hearing this, he was instantly surprised and a happy smile appeared on his face.
"Master, Master!" Jia Dongxu hurriedly shouted outside.
"what's wrong?"
Yi Zhonghai rushed over after hearing the news and saw Qin Huairu being supported by Jia Dongxu with a painful expression on her face. He instantly understood what had happened.
"Hurry, take Xiao Qin to the hospital!" Yi Zhonghai ordered immediately.
"Jia Zhang, go get the prepared crocodile stuff!"
"Bang Geng, go and call your uncle Sha Zhu to come over and help."
"Xiao Tan, go and borrow a cart from Li Kailang."
Yi Zhonghai gave instructions in an orderly manner and everyone took action immediately.
Fortunately, they had been prepared and waiting for this moment to come.
An old lady hurried to Li Kailang's house and knocked on the door.
"Boom!"
"Who is it? Here we come!"
"Auntie, what can I do for you?"
Li Kailang looked at the anxious lady.
"Li boy, Xiao Qin is about to give birth. Can I borrow your cart?" an aunt said anxiously.
Hearing this, Li Kailang shook his head and said, "Auntie, I don't care about the Jia family's affairs. You can borrow from someone else."
Afterwards, Li Kailang planned to close the business, just as he had said before that he would sever ties with the Jia family.
The Jia family wanted to take advantage of him, but they had chosen the wrong person. Qin Huairu was giving birth to a child for Jia Dongxu, not for Li Kailang, so why should he help?
"Hey, Xiao Li, wait a minute!" An aunt hurriedly said when she saw Li Kailang was about to close the door.
"Auntie, what else do you want? If it's about the Jia family, don't come to me!" Li Kailang said coldly.
The aunt was a little anxious because they had made the reservation to borrow the room from Li Kailang and had not even informed Li Kailang in advance.
In their eyes, having a child is such an important matter, Li Kailang would not refuse and stand by and watch someone die.
The cart in the courtyard next door was used to transport goods, and for a while Li Kailang was the only one left.
"Well, can I borrow it from you?" the auntie asked quickly.
Hearing this, Li Kailang was silent for a while and then said: "Okay, since it's an old lady who wants to borrow it, then you can use it."
"Thank you. I'll have someone send it back after I'm done using it." The lady said gratefully.
After saying that, she quickly pulled the cart placed in the patio out of the yard.
Li Kailang has kept this cart here ever since he transported the grain.
Whether it is placed in a ring or in a planting space, it takes up space, so it is better to put it outside.
The cart has been put out for almost a month and no one has used it.
If others wanted to borrow the money, Li Kailang might not be able to lend it to them, but an auntie could.
After all, the aunt was not a bad person. On the contrary, she was quite enthusiastic and would help anyone who had problems, as long as Yi Zhonghai did not explicitly refuse.
After pulling the cart out and placing it outside the yard, the old lady immediately ran into the middle yard.
At this time, Banggeng called out Shazhu.
"Shazhu, Xiao Qin is about to give birth, quickly spread the quilt on the cart and we'll set off immediately."
"Oh, okay!" Sha Zhu responded immediately, snatched the quilt from Jia Zhang's hands, and hurried out of the yard.
“Xiao Tan, kill that old hen and make some soup. Xiao Qin needs some supplements after giving birth!”
"Oh, okay, be careful!" replied the aunt.
"Dongxu, hurry up and carry Xiao Qin out!"
After saying that, Jia Dongxu hugged Qin Huairu and walked quickly out of the yard.
At this time, the quilt had been spread on the cart. Jia Dongxu laid Qin Huairu on the cart and covered her with the quilt.
"Shazhu, hurry up and pull the cart to the staff hospital!" Yi Zhonghai ordered.
"Hey, be careful!" Sha Zhu put the rope on his back, grabbed the wooden blocks on both sides of the cart with both hands, and pushed the cart hard.
The group hurried towards the staff hospital.
"Be careful on the road!" Yan Bugui reminded.
The commotion at the Jia family attracted everyone in the yard, but no one rushed forward to help blindly. They just watched from the side.
"Qin Huairu is finally going to give birth, but we don't know whether it's a boy or a girl?" Liu Haizhong said.
"Who knows! But looking at Qin Huairu's condition and the fact that she is not liked by Jia Zhang, she should give birth to a girl." Second Aunt guessed.
"Qin Huairu has given birth to her second child, and Xiao Yuan should also hurry up and find a wife!" Aunt Cui said to herself.
"It's time for my son to find a wife, as he already has his second child." Aunt Zhang muttered to herself in the backyard.
Because Qin Huairu gave birth to a child, everyone started thinking about finding a wife for their own children.
Watching the group of people disappear and go back to their own places, Li Kailang went back to sleep.
I had agreed with Zhang Fen and Lu Wenjiang to go out and play on the weekend, but Zhang Fen and Li Kailang are single.
Lu Wenjiang got married, but they didn't have any children, so there was nothing fun to do there, so he finally canceled the marriage.
"Please make way, make way!" Sha Zhu shouted while pushing the cart.
"Ah——" Qin Huairu covered her stomach and screamed in pain, her brows furrowed, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
"Huai Ru, hold on a little longer, we'll be at the hospital soon!" Jia Dongxu comforted her, holding Qin Huai Ru's hand tightly.
After hearing this, Qin Huairu was still in pain, but she gritted her teeth and tried to hold on.
Not long after, they finally arrived at the hospital.
Sha Zhu dragged the cart directly into the hospital and shouted, "Doctor! Doctor!"
The doctors and nurses who rushed to the scene saw the bulge in the quilt and Qin Huairu's painful expression, and they immediately understood the situation.
"Take him to the delivery room quickly!" the nurse ordered to Sha Zhu.
"Bang!" As the door of the delivery room closed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Jia Dongxu wandered anxiously outside the delivery room, his heart full of worry.
Yi Zhonghai patted Jia Dongxu's shoulder gently and comforted him:
"Don't worry, Dongxu. Xiaoqin has given birth to a child before. She has experience and nothing will happen to her."
Seeing Yi Zhonghai's calm appearance, Jia Dongxu also slowly calmed down.
"Thank you, Master. I'm sorry to bother you with Huairu's matter again." Jia Dongxu said gratefully.
Yi Zhonghai shook his head: "It's not a big deal. You are my apprentice. As your master, I can't just sit there and watch you do whatever you want."
The two looked like a master and disciple with deep affection, which moved the passers-by watching. This is the simple master-disciple relationship of this era.
"Comrade, please pull the cart out. It's disturbing everyone's work!"
At this time, a nurse came to Sha Zhu.
"Oh, okay! I'll take it away now!" Sha Zhu responded quickly.
"Thank you for your help!" After saying that, the nurse left.
Sha Zhu looked at the nurse's back and was stunned for a moment.
"Shazhu! Shazhu! What's wrong with you?" Yi Zhonghai called out Shazhu several times.
"Hmm!" Sha Zhu finally came to his senses.
"Shazhu, what are you thinking about? Go and pull the cart out!" Yi Zhonghai ordered.
"Oh, I'll go now!" Sha Zhu pulled the cart out.
"Master, look at Shazhu, is he dazzled by that nurse and fell in love with her?" Jia Dongxu rarely made a joke.
"I don't know. I'll ask later. If I like it, it's time to look for it." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.
The nurse was indeed very beautiful, with big eyes, a sweet voice, and a well-proportioned figure, which completely met Sha Zhu's aesthetic standards.
In other words, conform to the standards of someone who just came in.
"A toad wants to eat swan flesh!" Jia Zhangshi suddenly said, breaking the relaxed atmosphere.
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu looked at Jia Zhang with some displeasure. Haozi and Shazhu had already gone out and didn't hear anything.
Jia Zhang continued, "What are you looking at? You are so ugly, and you still want to find a beautiful wife. Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself!"
This sentence made the originally relaxed atmosphere become heavy. Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu didn't want to argue with Jia Zhang.
Although Jia Dongxu was anxious, he also knew that there was nothing he could do as he had just been pushed into the delivery room.
He could only sit on the bench outside the delivery room with Yi Zhonghai and wait quietly.
"Ah——" Suddenly, Qin Huairu's shrill and painful voice came from the delivery room. "Huairu!" Jia Dongxu stood up in fear and walked to the door of the delivery room, wanting to see inside.
However, the door of the delivery room was closed and he could not see anything.
"Dongxu, don't be impatient, it's just the beginning!" Yi Zhonghai advised.
When Sha Zhu came back after pushing the cart, he also heard Qin Huairu's screams.
He couldn't help but feel a little worried, but he also knew that he couldn't help.
So, everyone waited anxiously amid Qin Huairu's screams.
With a "bang", the door of the delivery room was suddenly pushed open, and a nurse walked out quickly, holding a newborn baby in her arms.
She looked around and asked in a loud voice, "Who is the father of the child?"
"Me, me!" Jia Dongxu raised his hand excitedly.
The nurse smiled at Jia Dongxu and congratulated him, "Congratulations, it's a girl, both mother and daughter are safe!"
After saying that, she gently handed the girl in her arms to Jia Dongxu.
Jia Dongxu took the child and looked at her wrinkled little face, feeling a warm feeling in his heart.
"Daughter, my daughter is fine!"
Jia Dongxu felt a little regretful that it was actually a daughter, but fortunately his first child was a good boy, and since there was already a boy in the family, it would be fine to have a girl.
"Dongxu, congratulations! Now you have a son and a daughter!" Yi Zhonghai congratulated.
"Thank you, Master!" Jia Dongxu said gratefully.
Although Yi Zhonghai congratulated Jia Dongxu on the surface, he felt a little disgusted with the newborn girl in his heart.
In his eyes, only boys can continue the family line, while girls are less important.
Jia Zhang also came over. She looked at her granddaughter's wrinkled face and muttered in dissatisfaction:
"How could you give birth to a money-losing baby? I told you that you should have aborted it in the first place!"
"It's useless. When he grows up, he still eats and uses things at home. He should not have been born."
Jia Zhang's words were full of disgust and dissatisfaction towards the girl, as if the girl's existence itself was a mistake.
The nurse beside her heard what Jia Zhang said and immediately became furious: "Grandma, what do you mean by that?"
"It's just a girl, you complain about this and that, aren't you also a girl? According to what you said, your parents should have thrown you away in the first place!"
"With you like this, do you believe I will tell the Women's Federation to arrest you and put you in jail!"
Hearing the nurse's words, passers-by also looked over.
Although everyone dislikes girls in their hearts, this is the era we live in and some things cannot be said in public.
Jia Zhang wanted to refute at first, but when she heard the word "prison", she immediately became discouraged.
Jia Dongxu also looked angry. After all, she was his daughter.
Isn't it a slap in the face when Jia Zhang said this?
Jia Dongxu looked at Jia Zhang angrily: "Mom, if you're okay, go back first and don't make trouble here anymore!"
"Hmph!" Jia Zhang was frightened by her son's eyes and tone. She snorted coldly and turned away.
Looking at Jia Zhang's back as she left, the nurse couldn't help but complain:
"What kind of person is this! Aren't you a woman too? Why do you complain about this and that? Why didn't his parents just throw him away?"
She is also a woman and cannot bear to see this kind of situation.
"Nurse, I'm sorry, my mother was just talking nonsense, please don't take it seriously!" Jia Dongxu said apologetically.
The nurse glared at him and said unhappily, "Okay, I've seen this happen a lot."
"You are the child's father, you must fulfill your responsibilities. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, it is your child."
After what Jia Zhang said, the nurse didn't dare to use the word "girl" for fear that Jia Dongxu would not take it seriously.
"Bang!" The door of the delivery room opened again, and Qin Huairu was pushed out lying on the hospital bed.
Jia Dongxu hurried over and carefully handed the girl to Qin Huairu.
"Huai Ru, look, this is our daughter." There was a hint of trembling and excitement in Jia Dongxu's voice.
Qin Huairu turned her head and looked at the wrinkled little life, a tired but happy smile appeared on her face.
"It's so beautiful!" Qin Huairu gently stroked the girl's cheek, her eyes full of love.
Then he raised his head, looked into Jia Dongxu's eyes and asked, "Dongxu, what do you think we should name our child?"
"Forehead"
Jia Dongxu was stunned by the question. He really hadn't thought about this question. Looking at Qin Huairu's expectant eyes, he felt a little flustered.
Seeing Jia Dongxu's reaction, Qin Huairu and the nurse felt a little disappointed.
Jia Dongxu's silence undoubtedly showed that he did not value the girl.
Jia Dongxu never thought that the baby would be a girl, or guessed that it would be a girl, but he didn't care.
No matter which one it is, it shows that Jia Dongxu doesn't care about the girl, which makes Qin Huairu and the nurse feel heartbroken.
Looking at the silent atmosphere, Yi Zhonghai coughed twice, stood up and said:
"Xiao Qin, you just gave birth, it's most important for you to rest first. It's not too late to name the baby later!"
Jia Dongxu also quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, Huairu, it's most important for you to rest first. We can discuss the name of the child slowly after you wake up."
After saying that, Jia Dongxu gently placed the child next to Qin Huairu.
Looking at her daughter's sleeping face, Qin Huairu sighed helplessly, her heart full of grievances.
"Sorry to trouble you, nurse!" Jia Dongxu said to the nurse.
Seeing this, the nurse looked at Jia Dongxu angrily, then pushed the bed out of the delivery room.
Jia Dongxu and Yi Zhonghai were left standing at the door of the delivery room, looking at each other in bewilderment.
After they left, Jia Dongxu said to Yi Zhonghai in a hurry:
"Master, what do you say we should do? I haven't thought of a name yet. Master, how about you help me think of one?"
Jia Dongxu frowned and rubbed his hands together, trying to find the answer in his palms.
Yi Zhonghai gently patted Jia Dongxu on the shoulder, his eyes full of understanding and encouragement:
"Dongxu, this is your daughter. You should decide her name. You are her father. How can I name her for you?"
After a pause, Yi Zhonghai continued:
"I know you are very nervous now, but you still have plenty of time. Think about it slowly and carefully. This is your child!"
After saying that, Yi Zhonghai turned around and followed the nurse, leaving Jia Dongxu standing there alone.
Passersby around him looked at him and some began to whisper.
An old lady shook her head and sighed, "What a pity! This child first met a mother-in-law who didn't like girls, and now she has met a father who doesn't care much about her."
A middle-aged woman nearby also echoed, "Yes, this child will have a hard time in the future. Her grandmother doesn't love her, and her father doesn't love her. If she gets bullied in the future, I'm afraid no one will stand up for her."
"Yes, this child will suffer in the future. His grandma doesn't love him, his dad doesn't love him, and no one will care if he gets bullied. It's really hard to be a mother!"
A crowd of passers-by were talking about this, and these words pierced Jia Dongxu's heart like needles. Jia Dongxu ran out of here in shame.
At noon, an old lady came hurriedly carrying a large lunch box and asked the nurse about Qin Huairu's hospital room.
"Xiao Qin, are you okay?" An aunt looked at Qin Huairu and asked with concern.
Qin Huairu was looking at the child beside her intently, her face a little pale.
After a short rest, Qin Huairu's body gradually recovered her strength.
She looked at Auntie and asked softly, "Auntie, why are you here?"
The aunt held up the lunch box in her hand and said, "This is the chicken soup I made especially for you. Eat it while it's hot to replenish your nutrition!"
As she spoke, the aunt opened the lunch box, and a steaming aroma wafted into the air.
The soup was shiny with oil and there was plenty of chicken in the soup.
Looking at the chicken soup and chicken in front of her, Qin Huairu couldn't help but moisten her eyes.
The last time I ate chicken and drank chicken soup was after the chicken stick incident. More than six years have passed in the blink of an eye.
The aunt looked at Qin Huairu's moist eyes and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Xiao Qin, is the baby a boy or a girl?"
Qin Huairu looked at the sleeping child beside her and replied gently, "It's a girl!"
"It's a girl!" The auntie's voice was a little disappointed, but she immediately shouted: "Girls are good, Xiao Jia now has both a son and a daughter!"
Qin Huairu listened to the tone of the auntie and then looked at the eyes of the men in the room.
She knew very well that they didn't like girls, but she didn't care. After all, it was her own child and she would love her!
"By the way, Xiao Jia, what's the child's name?" the aunt asked again.
"My name is Jia Dang, and my nickname is Xiaodang!" Jia Dongxu replied.
While Qin Huairu was resting, Jia Dongxu had already thought of a name, and it did not change because of Li Kailang's arrival.
"Jia Dang! Jia Dang!" the old lady repeated silently, unable to comprehend the deeper meaning.
An old lady was about to ask Jia Dongxu what the meaning of his name was, but seeing the unnatural expression on his face, she decisively shut up.
In fact, Jia Dongxu named himself "Jia Dang" just as a temporary decision. He did not think too much about it, and the name did not have any deep meaning.
