Chapter 34 Mother and Child are safe
The officials were initially extremely reluctant, but after hearing Xie Moyao say he would bring them fried chicken and dry rations, they thought for a moment, coughed twice, and reluctantly nodded.
"Alright, alright, since that's the case, then rest a little longer where you are. But let me tell you, hurry up! If we find those disaster victims catching up with us, I'll call for the journey no matter if you're ready or not."
Food is important, but life is more important.
Moreover, they didn't want to break ties with Ji Yunshu unless absolutely necessary, since among all of them, only the people from the Prince's Mansion had some provisions.
Besides, the fried chicken yesterday tasted really good!
Sherin got into the carriage and rummaged through it to find some leftover fried chicken from yesterday, as well as other dry rations.
The owner of Haitang didn't know they had a large group, so he didn't prepare much dry food yesterday.
They gave us quite a bit of fried chicken, but we ate some yesterday, and the officers received even more last night, so there's not much left today.
Xie Lin and Xiao Lan kept some fried chicken for themselves, and as Xie Moyao instructed, they sent the rest to the officials.
The officer smiled and took the fried chicken from his hand, telling everyone to rest where they were and find their own food.
The other families harbored some resentment, but dared not say anything. The officials were clearly in a bad mood, and if they spoke up, they would probably run into trouble.
Fortunately, there were some crumbs of dry food left on the ground of their carriage. They picked them up and made do with them for a meal this afternoon, which helped them get by.
Inside the space, Ji Yunshu was completely focused on the surgery, unaware of what was happening outside. She was all alone in the operating room, having to rely on herself for everything, and was somewhat flustered, but she dared not be distracted at all.
The monitor showed that Li's physical condition was good.
Ji Yunshu successfully removed a baby from Li's belly.
As soon as the baby was taken out, a series of cries rang out in the operating room.
She looked at the baby in her hands and felt extremely curious. The arrival of new life was really strange, as if it could dispel all the gloom.
She tore two pieces of cloth from the side, wrapped the baby in them, put the baby in the stroller, and then turned back to continue stitching up Li's wound.
Mending wounds is a big project, and she dared not be careless at all. She bent over and carefully and meticulously mended Li's wounds, stitch by stitch, to make them look as neat as possible.
The baby cried a few times when it was born, but now it is lying peacefully asleep in the stroller. The operating room is extremely quiet, except for the occasional sound of needles and thread pulling on the skin.
outside the carriage
Everyone was getting increasingly anxious, but there was no sound from inside the carriage. They had no idea what was going on. How could a woman give birth without making any noise? Besides, Ji Yunshu hadn't asked them to boil water or anything like that.
They really wanted to go into the carriage to check on Li's condition, but then they remembered Ji Yunshu's repeated instructions that no one was allowed to enter the carriage without her permission.
The people of the Prince's mansion sat together, anxiously waiting to see what was happening inside the carriage.
Xie Moyao lay in the carriage, extremely nervous. After his elder brother left, his sister-in-law and second sister-in-law had always treated him well, regarding him as a younger brother. The child in his sister-in-law's womb was his elder brother's only child, and he hoped that his sister-in-law could give birth to the child safely.
As time passed, the carriage remained quiet. The officials grew impatient and began urging them to set off.
Xie Lin and Xiao Lan were extremely anxious and were about to step forward to plead with the officials to let them wait a little longer.
The curtain of a carriage was lifted, and Ji Yunshu emerged from the carriage carrying a swaddled baby.
Everyone was shocked. My God!
The princess actually helped the first wife deliver the baby, but they were standing outside the carriage, so why didn't they hear any noise from inside?
The old princess excitedly stepped forward, craning her neck to see the baby Ji Yunshu was holding. When she saw that the baby was fast asleep, she was so excited that she couldn't speak.
Xie Mohuan pointed at the baby in Ji Yunshu's hand, and said excitedly,
"Wow, Third Sister-in-law, you're amazing! You actually helped Eldest Sister-in-law deliver the baby! By the way, is the baby a boy or a girl? And how is Eldest Sister-in-law? How is she feeling?"
Ji Yunshu smiled and looked at the sleeping baby in her arms.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law and baby are safe. She was just too tired and was resting in the carriage. It's a boy."
The old princess stroked the baby's cheek with trembling hands, tears streaming down her face.
"Alright, alright, as long as mother and child are safe, it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. Our Zhenbei Prince's Mansion has finally been blessed with offspring again. Thank you for your hard work, eldest son's wife. And thank you for your hard work, third son's wife. You've all worked hard."
She held Ji Yunshu's hand, almost kneeling down before him.
Ji Yunshu quickly helped her up; she felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to the old princess.
Besides, she is now a member of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, and it is her responsibility to help Li give birth safely.
Ji Yunshu was also grateful that she had a powerful space. The medical system in the space gave her enough confidence to save her sister-in-law today. If it weren't for the space, even though she had some medical skills, she would have been helpless without the necessary resources.
This time, Li did not suffer the same fate as in the original story, where she and her unborn child died.
Xie Lin moved closer to Ji Yunshu and whispered something.
"Your Highness, the officials have already set off. We must hurry and catch up."
Ji Yunshu nodded and handed the baby in her arms to Xie Mohuan.
"Little sister, please take Mother and Second Sister-in-law to your Third Brother's carriage for a bit. Eldest Sister-in-law is still a little weak and needs to rest. You can come over when she's feeling better."
Xie Mohuan and the others nodded without suspicion, and carried the baby into the carriage where Xie Moyao was. The group then drove the carriage behind the exile procession, moving forward leisurely.
After Ji Yunshu boarded the carriage, she looked at Li Shi, who was pale-faced, and frowned. Li Shi was too weak. She had been given anesthesia, and she should have woken up by now, but there was no sign of her waking up at all.
Reaching out to feel Li's pulse, her heart sank. Li's body was severely depleted. She had exhausted all her strength to give birth to the baby. Even though she later delivered the baby via cesarean section, saving Li a lot of effort, Li's condition was still not optimistic.
Worried that something might happen to Li Shi in the carriage, and for Li Shi's safety, she gritted her teeth and tried again to send Li Shi into the spatial dimension with her mind.
This time, however, no matter how she tried to control it, when she opened her eyes, Li was still lying in the carriage. Not only Li, but even she couldn't enter the space with her mind and was directly bounced out.
Helpless, Ji Yunshu had no choice but to temporarily abandon the idea of sending Li Shi into the space. Fortunately, she was not too affected by taking things, and could temporarily use her mind to take out a few bags of nutrient solution and infusion tubes from the space and slowly infuse the nutrient solution into Li Shi's body.
As she probed into the space, she was surprised to find that the spring water in front of the villa was even more vibrant in color than before.
Even the front door of the villa was no longer gray-white, but turned vermilion, and the entire villa was now revealed.
