At this moment, Shaojiang finally came back with his people, walked to the courtyard and asked, "How is Zuiyao? Is she giving birth?"

Ms. Jiang shook her head anxiously: "No, I sent someone in to ask, and they said it was due to premature birth."

Shaojiang hurriedly said to an elderly nanny behind him: "Mom, please go in and take a look."

This was a palace attendant sent by the Queen Mother. She was a nun in the palace who specialized in attending to the birth of the empress. She was very experienced, so she quickly entered the room.

Afterwards, Shao Jiang said to the man in official uniform: "Imperial Physician, do you have any idea?"

The imperial doctor listened to Jiang Zuiyao's painful cry and asked, "You didn't invite a doctor to your house?"

Li Yan on the side spoke: "The doctor has been invited, but it is not convenient for him to go in when the young lady is giving birth. He can only wait until the birth is over before taking the young lady's pulse."

When the imperial doctor heard this, he frowned and said, "You can tell from the sound that it is a sign of difficult labor. How can you let the mother suffer? I will prescribe a prescription right now. You can quickly make the medicine and give it to the mother."

As expected of someone from the palace, he is experienced after all.

The imperial doctor wrote the prescription according to the procedure, took the prepared medicine from the medicine box, and ordered: "Three bowls of water are used for the medicine. Boil the water and add a stick of incense to give it to the mother. Go quickly."

Li Yan responded, took the medicine and went to get it done quickly.

Anxious Mrs. Jiang muttered: "I've brought all the medicine, why bother to prescribe it?"

Li Yan glared at her displeasedly and said coldly: "The palace has to prepare records. Is it convenient for you to treat it as our own doctor?"

The nun in the palace entered the house, quickly walked over to take a look, and then said to the midwife: "I will deliver the baby to the young lady. You can rest for a while."

The midwife looked up at her and said displeasedly: "Who are you?"

Mammy rolled her eyes at the midwife and said arrogantly: "I am the midwife in the palace who is specially assigned to deliver the baby. I am here to deliver the baby to the young lady on the order of the Queen Mother."

When the midwife heard that she was from the palace, she immediately got out of the way without daring to offend her.

At this time, Xiyun came in with a bowl of porridge and shouted eagerly: "The porridge is here, the porridge is here, Master, hurry up and eat something to eat again."

Upon hearing this, Grandma's expression changed. She turned around and was slightly startled when she saw Xijun.

Xiyun was also shocked when he saw Nanny: "Nanny Huang, why are you here?"

Grandma glanced at Jiang Zuiyao who was in pain and said, "Now you serve Mrs. Shao?"

Xiyun nodded. Delivering the baby was urgent at the moment, and the two of them had no time to reminisce about the past. Xiyun was about to send it to Jiang Zuiyao, but Nanny Huang immediately stopped her: "What should you eat when you have a baby?"

Xiyun explained: "The midwife said she was afraid that the young lady would be exhausted. She would like to eat something to give her strength."

Aunt Huang said helplessly: "Pregnant women who give birth normally can do this, but your wife has a difficult delivery and has to go back and forth. What if she vomits?"

Then, Nanny Huang took out a pill from what she brought, handed it to Xiyun and said, "Give her to take this."

Xiyun put down the porridge bowl and gave Jiang Zuiyao the pills to take. After a while, Jiang Zuiyao felt less pain and gained strength.

Nanny Huang supported Jiang Zuiyao's legs and ordered: "Madam, don't panic. Just listen to my words and be patient."

Jiang Zuiyao nodded, raised his head and smoothed away the broken hair from his forehead, then lay down with renewed vigor, and worked hard.

At this moment, Shaojiang outside was already walking back and forth in a hurry. Mr. Jiang sat on the chair and said irritably: "Sit down and wait. I feel dizzy from walking back and forth."

Shao Jiang was also anxious: "Do you know what the Queen Mother said to me? As soon as the Queen Mother heard that Zuiyao was born prematurely, she immediately became anxious and said to me, if there is anything wrong with her, let me come and see her! Whether the child will be born or not

It doesn't matter right now, nothing will happen to Zui Yao."

Jiang didn't like hearing these words, and said coldly: "What do you mean it doesn't matter whether the child is born or not? That is my direct grandson!"

Shao Jiang frowned and said, "How do you know it's a boy? Can you pinch it? What if it's a girl?"

These words made Jiang's enthusiasm subside instantly, and he sat there in silence.

When Shaojiang saw Jiang's behavior, he said, "Even if Zuiyao gives birth to a girl, we will still love her very much."

Jiang rolled her eyes reluctantly: "If it's a girl, just let Zuiyao be reborn."

Shao Jiang became anxious again: "Let me tell you, no matter whether Zui Yao gives birth to a boy or a girl, we will all be happy. Don't forget why Qing'er was beaten like that by the Queen Mother a while ago."

Just a reminder, the Jiang family has finally sobered up. With the Empress Dowager supporting Jiang Zuiyao, the Shao family now dare not offend their daughter-in-law.

About half an hour later, Jiang sent Xue Qing in to investigate. Xue Qing came back and said: "Madam, I asked you clearly. The young lady is having a difficult delivery. Fortunately, the nanny from the palace is here. She said that although the birth was difficult,

But it shouldn’t be a serious problem and I’ll definitely give birth before dark.”

This was a reassurance for Mr. Jiang, who nodded repeatedly and said: "That's good, that's good. I'm really afraid that like the Wang family's daughter-in-law, the birth took a whole day and a night to be over."

Shao Jiang never forgot the Queen Mother's warning and asked: "What about Zui Yao?"

Xue Qing replied: "Mommy said that the young lady will suffer a little, but she can also be safe."

Shaojiang finally took a breath. As long as Zui Yao was alive, he didn't care whether he was punished or not, as long as he could report to the Queen Mother.

Just when everyone took a steady breath, Shao Ziqing came.

The injury on his body had just healed, but it was not yet healed. He was walking a little slowly while holding Chi Rong's hand.

When Jiang saw Shao Ziqing coming, she quickly got up and walked over and said, "Why don't you take good care of your injuries? The doctor asked you to have a good rest this year."

Shao Ziqing's face is much paler now than before. Fortunately, he comes from the Taixuan clan and has some foundation. Otherwise, others would have been disabled even if they didn't die after going through these repeated hardships.

Shao Ziqing said: "I heard that Jiang Zuiyao was having difficulty giving birth, so I came over to have a look."

There is no fault in what he said. He is Jiang Zuiyao's husband. When his wife gives birth to a child, he wants to be there to care about her, but no one can see a trace of concern on that indifferent face.

In order not to worry Shao Ziqing, Jiang said: "Don't worry, although Zuiyao has difficulty in giving birth, the Queen Mother has brought people from the palace and she will give birth before dark. You can go back and rest."

Unexpectedly, Shao Ziqing was a little surprised when he heard this: "So, you can give birth smoothly?"

Mrs. Jiang nodded: "What the nun in the palace said should be reliable. Don't worry about it. Just sit down and wait."

But Shao Ziqing had no intention of sitting down and waiting patiently. He turned around and walked out. Jiang quickly asked: "You are still injured, where are you going?"

Shao Ziqing replied perfunctorily: "I'll go take a look."

Jiang said: "When a woman gives birth, a man can't go in. Just wait outside."

Shao Ziqing nodded: "Well, I'll go to the door and have a look."

Shao Jiang made a point at this time: "The Queen Mother values ​​Zui Yao now. This baby must be born smoothly to ensure the safety of mother and child. Don't be arrogant and don't forget the injuries on your body."
