Chapter 176 The Too-Normal Midwife

I know she said that on purpose, just to put her mind at ease.

"Guihua, Yang Zhiqing's gift is also a token of his goodwill, so please don't refuse."

You just gave birth, you should get some sleep.

The women's director gestured to her, telling them to go first.

Yang Leyu remained sullen throughout the journey.

Jiang Shi'an gave her a wink, and Ji Shuyin leaned over to strike up a conversation with her.

"Leyu, don't be like this. Sister Guihua has already given birth, and the baby is fine. You should be happy."

"Yes, that's right."

But this pregnancy is another daughter, and I doubt that annoying old woman will let her have an easy time.

She's a traditional woman, and she can't leave the Zhang family. I'm really worried about her!

This is absolutely true; it seems that women of this era all share this trait.

Even though gender equality has been achieved, the idea of ​​husbands being the head of the household is still deeply ingrained.

"We can't make that decision either, so don't overthink it."

Everyone has their own destiny and choices, and we've done the most we could.

Upon hearing this, Yang Leyu sighed again.

"I just feel sorry for them. How will they live their lives from now on?"

Ji Shuyin understood perfectly. She had a good relationship with Tian Guihua, so it was normal for her to think of her.

"Don't worry unnecessarily, we have other things to do."

"What's going on?"

Sure enough, her attention was diverted.

Do you remember that midwife?

When you mention it, she naturally remembers it.

"Well, what happened?"

"She said the baby was breech and needed to be pushed, but there was no guarantee it would be successful. We need to ask Zhang San and the old lady."

But once he went out, he never came back.

Yang Leyu recalled it now, and it was true; at least until she left, she did not encounter this person again.

“I was watching the old woman outside. Later, Jiang Shi’an and the others came over, so I asked them to watch her while I went inside.”

She came out then, but then...

Shuyin, what do you mean by this?

"It's meaningless. I think this person is very strange."

Think about it, even if a lot of people come into the house.

Her midwife shouldn't have left either; childbirth is a life-threatening event.

At this point, Jiang Shi'an also spoke.

"After she came out, she did say a few words to Zhang San and his mother."

"Where did they go next? Did you see?"

The man shook his head and said, "I wasn't paying attention at the time, and I really don't know where she went."

Therefore, the person's whereabouts became a mystery.

"Let's go to her house and ask her what's going on."

Only Ji Shuyin knew that Tian Guihua must have died in childbirth.

If it weren't for their intervention, this person would have left and never returned.

They have no grudge against each other, they shouldn't have done that!
There must be something fishy going on here.

Yang Leyu was also feeling uneasy, as if something was amiss, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

However, since Ji Shuyin said she was going, then she would go.

This midwife was also from the same production team and lived in the village.

When the three people arrived, her house was tightly shut behind the front door.

Jiang Shi'an went over and knocked, then called out twice, but no one answered.

"not at home?"

"No, let's go inside."

The door wasn't locked, it was just closed; you could push it open and get in.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Granny Liu came over from behind the house.

"What are you educated youth doing at my house? Why are you so curious?" She looked surprised, without any guilt or impatience.

Upon hearing this, Ji Shuyin sighed, looking somewhat sorrowful.

"Grandma Liu, we just came from the hospital. The captain asked us to come and tell you."

Upon hearing this, the other person quickly asked a question as well.

"How are you? I was worried about the osmanthus!"

From beginning to end, this person showed no flaws whatsoever.

"Oh dear, this is not good, it's too late."

Yang Leyu was somewhat shocked. Why would Ji Shuyin say that? Weren't the mother and daughter safe and sound?
Jiang Shi'an remained calm and didn't say a word.

Over there, Granny Liu sighed.

"Oh dear, this breech presentation definitely carries risks."

If I had known it would end like this, I should have pushed her. What a waste of such a good person.

He looked very sad, as if he really felt guilty.

Ji Shuyin even doubted whether she had really misunderstood her.

However, she trusted her intuition even more.

"That's right. When I left, I even said I wanted you to come with me."

"If something happened on the way, we could have saved you in time, but we didn't even see you."

Finally, the question hit the nail on the head, and Yang Leyu also became indignant.

"Yes, where did you go when we left? You didn't hide, did you?"

"Yang Zhiqing, what are you saying?"

It was quite a coincidence that my stomach was hurting so badly that I went to the outhouse.

When I returned, you were already gone.

Zhang San said he went to the hospital and didn't need me anymore, so he told me to come back.

They didn't give me a single penny for my two yuan of hard work. Who can I complain to?

She also deliberately acted a little angry, of course, towards Zhang San.

"Oh, that's such a coincidence."

However, if your in-laws disagree in this situation, would you stop helping to push it away?

Granny Liu nodded, then looked somewhat displeased.

“Ji Zhiqing, this is a matter of life and death.”

We're doing a good thing by helping with the delivery, but it's the husband's family who have the real say.

Stop being sarcastic; you have nothing to say to me.

"We didn't say anything to you, why are you in such a hurry?"

Her behavior didn't exactly suggest she was guilty, but it was close enough.

It's just that there's a perfect reason, which is rather strange.

"You're here to cause trouble on purpose, aren't you? The fact that someone is gone has nothing to do with me."

"Get out of here, don't bring me bad luck."

Ji Shuyin quickly put on a shocked expression and raised her voice considerably.

"Grandma Liu, what are you saying?"

"Sister-in-law Guihua is perfectly fine, how come she's not in your mouth?"

"What? Didn't you say it was too late?"

"Yes, it's just too late."

The child almost choked, and the adult also bled.

"If only I had come earlier, I wouldn't have suffered so much."

Granny Liu felt like she had been tricked and was quite upset.

"Hehe, it's good that you're alright. Did you really need to tell me?"
Thank you for your trouble. Now I understand. Goodbye.

Wow, she has quite a temper.

Several people were "asked" to leave, but they weren't angry.

"Shuyin, I think this Granny Liu seems to be fine. Could we be suspecting the wrong person?"

Hearing this, she shook her head.

"Don't you think this person is behaving too normally? He's a participant, but he doesn't seem to feel any guilt at all."
