Chapter 429: Chapter 236: Gave Birth to 3
In the end, the four brothers of the Qian Family united to make the family business thrive.
All four brothers of the Qian Family raised their bowls with smiles, as if no festival had ever occurred.
Duo Duo whispered to Qian Yixiu, "Embroidered older sister, I was so afraid you’d ignore me. I’m so happy you could come to my house today."
Duo Duo appeared somewhat thinner, and the baby fat on her face had greatly reduced. Since her family was well-off, she had never worked under the sun, resulting in her fair and delicate skin.
The young girl was very pretty, and as she grew older, she would certainly be a beauty.
Qian Yixiu pinched her face with a smile and said, "Embroidered older sister also likes Duo Duo. How could I ignore you?" After speaking, she picked up a fatty piece of braised pork for her.
The little girl happily put the meat in her mouth.
After the New Year’s meal, the second and third branches of the family returned to their own homes.
Qian Manpo, Shan Wa, De Wa, and Jin Wa, along with the rest of the third branch, came to the wasteland in the west of the village. Now, this wasteland was considered the liveliest and most festive area of Huaxi Village. Many red lanterns hung from the trees, and crowds of children and adolescents set off firecrackers, chasing and frolicking about.
Qian Yeejin and Qian Xiaolei also stayed behind to play with the children while the others returned to Guiyuan.
Cheng Yue had difficulty climbing stairs, so Qian Yixiu had her bedroom moved downstairs two months earlier. At this moment, Cheng Yue was sitting in the room waiting for her family to return. She had changed into a red satin embroidered peony robe and wore a peacock hairpin with rubies, dressed joyfully and in anticipation of celebrating New Year’s with her family.
As she became somewhat impatient, her daughter finally returned. Cheng Yue, with the support of Chen Yu, struggled to her feet, her belly round like a cannonball. She puckered her lips and held onto her daughter’s hand, saying, "Yixiu, you’ve finally come back. Mom missed you and Jinwa, as well as Brother Jiang."
Qian Yixiu smiled and said, "We missed Mom too and hurried back right after eating." She spoke for their father as well, "Daddy also missed Mom."
Then she led her into the main residence. Lady Wu saw Cheng Yue dressed so festively for the first time and laughed, "Wow, Yueyue, dressed like this you really resemble the wife of an imperial decree."
The whole family of the third branch spent January in tense anticipation. Cheng Yue’s due date was in early February, but because she was carrying twins, it was very likely she would deliver early. That is, the babies could possibly be born during January.
Furthermore, Cheng Yue’s belly was so large and her legs so swollen that she had trouble breathing and often complained of belly pain. Even with Doctor Du present, the family was extremely anxious.
Especially at night, Cheng Yue, taking up most of the bed, struggled to turn over. She also frequently woke up from nightmares, crying. Sometimes she dreamt that Brother Jiang was being chased and killed, or that her mother in heaven was calling for her.
Seeing Cheng Yue’s translucent belly covered in veins, as well as her unstable emotions, Qian Yixiu felt her own heart tighten.
Not only was Doctor Du constantly with her, but Zhang Yang also came every few days to check her pulse, and Doctor Lin visited almost every day.
This had Old woman Qian tsking and shaking her head as she murmured to Qian Sangui, "Aren’t you all doing a bit too much? It’s just giving birth to a child! You’re making a fuss as if it’s a princess or commandery princess giving birth. When Manjiang’s wife was pregnant with twins and gave birth to Jinwa and Yixiu, wasn’t it extremely easy? She didn’t even call the midwife and gave birth by herself."
Qian Sangui said, "Back then we were poor, and if something really happened, there was no way out. Now that conditions are better, we must ensure the safety of both the adult and the child to the greatest extent possible."
On the 20th day of January, Qian Yixiu and Qian Yeejin, after their long holiday, went back to Linhe Garden to resume their studies. Qian Yixiu, although attending for only an hour, still couldn’t concentrate and was lightly tapped on the head several times by Mr. Yu with a ruler.
Right after class, she hurried back with Zi Zhu.
Just past the Moon Gate, she saw Lady Wu and Lady He hurriedly walking towards Wangjiang Building. Seeing this, Qian Yixiu quickened her pace as well.
Lady Wu didn’t enter Wangjiang Building but instead went around it to the back. There were several small rooms behind the building, originally store rooms, but two had been cleared out specifically for Cheng Yue’s childbirth.
Qian Yixiu’s heart leapt. Was her little mother about to give birth? She followed to the backyard as well and heard Cheng Yue’s moans coming from one of the small rooms.
Just as Qian Yixiu was about to step onto the staircase, she was stopped by Lady Wu, who said, "Your mother is giving birth inside, you can’t go in." Lady Wu then sent someone to the east end of the village to call for Old Grandma Wong, who was also a midwife.
Cheng Yue’s intermittent groans and cries of pain emerged from the room, causing Qian Yixiu to occasionally cover her mouth and cry.
In the afternoon, Qian Sangui, Old man Qian, and Old woman Qian all arrived and sat in Wangjiang Building waiting for news.
Qian Yeejin didn’t go to class and stood waiting in front of the small room with Qian Yixiu, not leaving no matter what others said. The situation particularly worsened after dusk when Cheng Yue’s voice became hoarse and her cries even more terrifying. The two siblings were both distressed and frightened, hugging each other and sobbing bitterly.
Qian Yeejin cried loudly, "Mother, you must be all right! Jinwa and sister can’t be without a mother."
When Qian Manxia heard the news, she also rushed over to join the siblings waiting outside.
After dark, a midwife started to come out to spill bloody water, bucket after bucket, which made the siblings cry again, their bodies trembling nonstop. Qian Manxia embraced them, constantly trying to comfort them.
Suddenly, a loud cry rang out, and the midwife announced, "Congratulations, Madam, congratulations, big mistress, it’s a boy."
After that, Lady Wu’s laughter and talking could be heard.
Upon hearing this, the siblings stopped crying and watched the small window intently, awaiting the second cry.
About a quarter of an hour later, another crying sound emerged. The midwife shouted again, "My goodness, this time it’s a girl. The big mistress has given birth to another set of mixed-sex twins!"
