Chapter 1018 -1017: What’s with the way you speak?

“Yes, yes, yes, we will follow the instructions to the letter, definitely!”

The two midwives nodded like they were pounding garlic, not daring to hesitate for even a moment.

The doctor’s eyes were covered, unable to see anything, fortunately, the woman doctor beside him was sensible, following the doctor’s commands, her acupuncture incredibly accurate.

As the silver needles were inserted, Feng’er indeed regained consciousness, her open eyes exceptionally bewildered.

“Feng’er, listen carefully, at the moment, to save you and the child, you need to cooperate with the two midwives and give birth to the child. Can you hear me speak? Do you understand?” While speaking, she stuffed a handkerchief into her mouth.

Liu Sisi’s heart was a mess, but the words she spoke were extremely clear and sharp.

Feng’er’s gaze, initially muddled, gradually became lucid, and she nodded at Liu Sisi while biting on the handkerchief.

Only then did Liu Sisi stand up and nodded at the two midwives.

She spoke four words: “Do your very best!”

The midwives’ bodies shook, but they forced themselves to remain calm. At present, the arrow was already on the string, their lives were now tied to Feng’er’s, with no way out, leaving them no choice.

As the woman doctor pulled out the last silver needle, she nodded to the two midwives: “Quick! The birth canal is open, push together.”

This was the path to life forcibly opened by the woman doctor with her silver needles. Where would the two midwives dare to slack off? One pressed down on the stomach, while the other reached in to pull, soon followed by a cry of joy.

“It’s out, the child is born!”

“Quick, quick, take care of the aftermath, there are still things to attend to,” the faces of the two midwives showed joy.

One began to clean up Feng’er, taking care of the mess, and receiving the placenta. The other turned to the child, clearing the fluids in the child’s mouth, then grabbed the legs and held them up, slapping the small buttocks twice—”pa, pa”—sharp sounds followed by the child’s loud cry.

Liu Sisi let out a long breath, a smile of relief spreading across her face.

She tightly held Feng’er’s hand, her smile mixed with tears: “The child is born, it’s a boy, a plump little boy! Feng’er, you can relax now!”

Feng’er, soaked as if pulled out of the water, finally showed a relaxed smile upon hearing this; even the handkerchief in her mouth fell without her noticing, and with a tilt of her head, she passed out.

Outside the room door, Ironsmith Fan was already beside himself with worry.

Upon hearing the child’s cry from inside, he could no longer hold back and covered his face, weeping bitterly.

Feng’er’s father, Ironsmith Fan, had married into the Feng family and, unfortunately, Feng’s mother had died in childbirth. Thus, Ironsmith Fan raised Feng’er single-handedly.

Originally, Ironsmith Fan had intended for his adopted son and apprentice to be the suitor who married into the family, but the two children had no feelings for each other, and Feng’er had instead taken a liking to Di Cheng, determined to marry him, leading to subsequent events.

He had hoped that the second child born to Feng’er would carry on the Feng family bloodline, but as it turned out, the second child was a daughter, which led him to pin his hopes on this birth.

Now that his wish was fulfilled, how could he not be ecstatic?

After crying for a while, he was persuaded by his adopted son to stop the tears and hurriedly instructed a few apprentices to buy some firecrackers and set them off. The crackling of firecrackers drew a crowd from the street, and many came forward to congratulate him. Ironsmith Fan responded with excitement and invited the neighbors into the inner room for tea.

For a time, the sound of joyous laughter was incessant, and the blacksmith shop was filled with jubilation.

Liu Sisi within the house did not relax in the slightest. After sending off the elder doctor with profuse thanks, she watched as the two midwives took out the antidote and carefully fed it to Feng’er. Only then did she sit next to Xiao Feng, watching coldly as the two midwives and two maids tidied up the room.

The child had also been cleaned and wrapped snugly in bedding before being brought to Feng’er’s side. The newborn, tiny in size, was wrapped up revealing only a little face with tightly closed eyes, looking exceptionally adorable.

“He weighs a good five catties and six taels, this little guy is clean and white, truly a big fat boy.”

The midwife who brought the child over spoke in a particularly pleasing manner, clearly looking much better herself.

Beside her, Ms. Gao also breathed a long sigh of relief, her face revealing joy: “When I first arrived, the Eldest Young Madam’s complexion frightened me terribly. Thankfully, we’ve safely made it through this ordeal, it’s truly a blessing!” As she spoke, she even pressed her hands together and silently chanted a Buddhist prayer.

Liu Sisi couldn’t help but smile, “Once Feng’er wakes up, things will be better. The child is indeed charming. It’s just hard to say whether he’ll resemble Feng’er more or Di Cheng when he grows up?”

“The old servant is guessing that he will mostly resemble the Eldest Young Master. Look at his eyebrows and eyes… so handsome,” exclaimed Ms. Gao repeatedly.

Liu Sisi also couldn’t help but burst into laughter; the birth of new life was always delightful.

Although the little guy was premature, his looks and cries were remarkably mature; he should be easy to raise. But upon further thought, Feng’er had been running around while carrying this little guy, so it was quite possible that the child would be more mature than other premature babies.

“Princess, this is a great joy. We must quickly send someone to inform the Eldest Young Master.”

Ms. Gao’s face was all smiles, but when she thought of Third Young Master, who had been abducted, the smile on her face suddenly lifted.

She wondered how the search for Third Young Master was going and whether any good news had come back.

Leaving aside how everyone was searching for Chou Chou, at the moment, Chou Chou himself was sitting at a table, fully engaged in devouring an array of food before him.

Egg-cattle meat soup, Scallion crisp crucian carp, cabbage meat rolls, stuffed tofu of East River… all sorts of famous dishes and snacks were being sent non-stop into his mouth, with Chou Chou eating to his heart’s content.

“Hey! Did you even tell her, huh? I’ve been out for quite a while now, it’s already late and I still haven’t returned home. My mother is sure to be worried about me. Let me out now!” Chou Chou spoke as if it were a given, not being at all polite to the married woman sitting opposite him.

If Liu Sisi were here, she would surely recognize the woman sitting across from Chou Chou. Unfortunately, at the moment, Liu Sisi was not present.

A burly man who had been standing by the side and serving could not stand it any longer!

He stepped forward and scolded, “Insolence! How dare you speak like that? You really are not…”

“Ah—Chou Chou is still young, who hasn’t been young once? I, the Empress, actually find Chou Chou’s behavior rather endearing,” said the woman.

Not mincing her words, the married woman smiled and pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the soup dribbling down the corner of Chou Chou’s mouth.

“Heh! This beautiful lady is right, unlike this rotting piece of wood beside her who always tries to scare people at the slightest provocation. Do they really think everyone grew up being scared stiff?”

Chou Chou exhibited outright arrogance, glaring sideways at the burly man and then turning back with a squint-eyed smile toward the married woman.

Yet, he was extremely vigilant on the inside. The woman didn’t seem to show any abnormalities, appearing quite happy to see him, indulging all his unreasonable demands, which only grew more and more strange as he observed.

Why had they brought him here, after all? What exactly was their intent?
