Chapter 871 Close to the truth
But the inspiration was fleeting, and before Lu Xi could catch it, she was interrupted by Zhuang Yi's crying. She didn't have time to think quietly about why, so she simply gave up thinking about it.
"Doctor, don't you have an pain-relieving device?" Lu Xi couldn't bear to see her best friend suffer, so she couldn't help but ask.
Director Chen was also very nice. He patiently explained to her, "She was given an epidural when her cervix was dilated, but it was turned off just now. With the epidural, she can't feel the contractions and can't exert any strength, so it's going to be hard to give birth. If it takes too long, the baby might be deprived of oxygen."
After hearing this, Lu Xi opened her mouth, but could only hold her best friend's hand distressedly, "Yiyi, let's try harder. We've come this far and suffered so much, we can't give up halfway."
Zhuang Yi closed his eyes tightly, gritted his teeth, and continued to accumulate strength.
After two hours of hard work, the sun was about to set and the sunset glow could be seen floating in the sky outside. The loud cry of a baby finally echoed throughout the delivery room.
The nurse took the baby out and said, "Where's the father? Come and see, my daughter, she weighs 15 pounds and 5 ounces. Both mother and daughter are safe."
Jiang Yizhou rushed over, tears in his eyes, and wanted to take the child but was at a loss.
Fu Nanzhou frowned and cursed, "What a shame!"
But his Adam's apple rolled, and he wanted to reach out his hand, but his movements were stiff.
The nurse smiled and said, "Don't worry, I haven't given the baby a bath yet. I'll bring him here for you to see. Now I'm going to give him a bath."
"When will my wife come out?" Jiang Yizhou asked anxiously.
"It will be out soon. Because of the episiotomy, two stitches will be needed." The nurse explained and then carried the baby back to the delivery room.
Zhuang Yi was in excruciating pain, but when she saw her daughter, it seemed as if all the pain had disappeared. "Let me see it quickly."
The nurse washed the baby and then brought her to Zhuang Yi. "Pretty little princess, you look like your mother, especially your eyes, which are so big. It's rare to see such a beautiful baby."
The nurse kept praising me, and it was obvious that she really liked me.
Zhuang Yi also felt very happy, "She is really pretty, hahaha, my daughter will definitely not be ugly."
Zhuang Yi is still the same Zhuang Yi, she is still carefree even after becoming a mother.
Lu Xi glanced at Zhuang Yi's daughter from the side and was also very fond of her. Then she pushed all the hair that was stuck to Zhuang Yi's cheeks behind her ears.
Rather than liking the baby, she felt more sorry for her best friend. Zhuang Yi was a person who had never suffered any hardship since childhood. When had she ever suffered such hardship?
It is said that only after becoming a mother can one understand how great a mother is. Lu Xi truly felt this.
Not to mention the suffering during pregnancy, just talking about childbirth, the level 10 pain is unimaginable to others.
Especially Zhuang Yi, who struggled for several hours before giving birth. You can imagine the pain she went through.
"Xixi, is my daughter pretty?" Zhuang Yi said with a bit of showing off, completely forgetting who was the one who had just bared his teeth and shouted that he didn't want to have children.
Lu Xi smiled and said, "Of course she looks pretty. I envy you so much. I hope I can give birth to a little princess too."
"Hahahahahahahahaha, that's hard to say. Quickly let that bastard Jiang Yizhou come in and see me. He got so scared when I was giving birth that he ran away. He's so useless."
Jiang Yizhou had been waiting outside impatiently, and when he heard Zhuang Yi's voice he hurried in.
He couldn't let go of his daughter, his eyes red with emotion. He looked at his daughter and then at Zhuang Yi, then lowered his head and kissed Zhuang Yi on the forehead, "Thank you, Yiyi, you've worked hard."
Zhuang Yi's eyes widened, and she looked like she wanted to tickle him. "I'm telling you, I absolutely don't want to have a second child. Find time to get yourself sterilized."
"Okay." Jiang Yizhou said without any hesitation.
Zhuang Yi was pushed into the ward. Fu Beibei and Zhuang Guanlin, Jiang Buhui and Tan Xiangjun, Pei Shaoqing and Ji Rou, Jin Yu, almost everyone who could come came.
The corridor was bustling with activity, as people lined up to hold their babies.
Fu Nanzhou also awkwardly picked up the baby, who was so soft that he was almost boneless, and looked at his sister, "Should I call you uncle?"
"He is my great uncle." Fu Beibei laughed heartily, "You are so young and you have become my great uncle. Nanzhou, you are great."
Fu Nanzhou's handsome face was a little dark. He was only 31 years old and had not yet become a father, but he had become an uncle first. He suddenly felt that he had aged by dozens of years, as if he had become an octogenarian.
Looking at Lu Xi, he smiled and said, "Aunt, come on."
Lu Xi's face flushed, and she glared at him in shame and anger, "Go away, I'm just 23 years old, I don't want to be an aunt, I want to be a godmother."
"Then there's a generation difference." Fu Beibei joked, "But your generations have been messed up for a long time, so just call each other by your own names."
Zhuang Yi lay on the bed, looking at her daughter eagerly, "Xixi, I've already given birth, the next one is up to you."
Lu Xi nodded, lowered her head and stroked her belly, and said softly: "If you give birth, I will be there soon."
In the evening, the group had dinner together at a restaurant near the hospital and then went back home.
Along the way, Lu Xi always felt that he had overlooked something, so he looked out the window absent-mindedly.
At this time, a gentle big hand touched her hand, "Are you scared?"
Lu Xi hummed, but she wasn’t actually afraid, she just felt like she had missed something.
"After you give birth to the baby, I will also get sterilized."
Lu Xi came back to her senses at this point, and couldn't help wanting to laugh when she heard Fu Nanzhou's words. He said so, but he couldn't really do it.
All wealthy families need heirs, and if it is a daughter, it is impossible not to have a second child.
But none of this matters. She has seen her sister give birth and Zhuang Yi give birth, so she is mentally prepared.
Now she just wanted to figure out the clue that suddenly popped up in her heart but was always playing hide-and-seek with her.
what is it?
"Are you worried about something?" Fu Nanzhou noticed that something was wrong with her.
Lu Xi nodded and frowned as she answered, "When I was in the delivery room, there was a flash of inspiration that seemed to be a crucial point, but I suddenly forgot it."
Fu Nanzhou began to guide her, "Then think about the situation at that time, who was it, and what did they say?"
Lu Xi thought about it carefully, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "I remember, Director Chen said at that time that some people are born infertile, you say..."
After a pause, she continued, "My imagination may be a little far-fetched, but do you think it's possible that Hao Mengting can't get pregnant?"
Fu Nanzhou widened his eyes in shock, his mind recalling what Lu Xi had just said...Hao Mengting couldn't get pregnant.
Before coming to the hospital, the couple were talking about something and had a flash of inspiration in their minds at the same time, but their thoughts were completely disrupted by Jiang Yizhou's call.
Oh, yes, at that time they thought that Hao Mengting and Shen Pingting had their children at the same time!
