"Ah~ah~ah..." The screams in the delivery room were getting louder and louder, but strangely, most of them were Zhang Shiyi's voice, but Qu Yi's voice was much smaller. Ma Ye kept covering his stomach and holding back his laughter. The bearded guest stared at him while asking Li Xiu again. It was not until this time that Li Xiu had the opportunity to explain a few words in his ear. As a result, the bearded guest turned dark after hearing this, and the corners of his mouth were twitching, not knowing what he was thinking.

It is not possible to give birth in a short while, especially Qu Yi is not only young, but also has premature birth, and the risk of giving birth is also greater. Li Xiu originally thought it was interesting to let Zhang Shiyi suffer a little, but when he was really standing outside the delivery room, he was unintentional to make fun of Zhang Shiyi, just worried about Qu Yi and his son inside. As for Princess Pingyang and Yi Niang, they even held their hands tightly, and their faces were full of nervous expressions. It seemed that they were worried about Qu Yi.

It was not until the second day of the evening that a loud baby cry suddenly came from the delivery room, which made everyone outside breathe a sigh of relief. After a while, Hong Fu Nu walked out with her hands and said to the bearded guest: "Brother, it's a granddaughter, mother and daughter are safe!"

Hearing Hong Fu Nu's words, the bearded guest couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then he asked with some concern: "Where is Eleven, how is he?"

When Hongfu Nu heard the eldest brother mention Zhang Shiyi, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and smiled. After a while, she said, "I don't know about Eleven's situation. He is upstairs. I will pack up Qu Yi and her daughter and carry it back to deliberately. You can go up and take a look at him!"

"Li Xiu, what happened to that Zhang Shiyi? Why did he scream so loudly just now?" Princess Pingyang finally let go of her worries about Qu Yi, and immediately came to Li Xiu with the romance of Yi and asked. After all, Zhang Shiyi's scream just now was too miserable, which made people have to wonder what he had experienced in it?

"This...you should ask Qu Yi in the future!" Li Xiu held back his smile and said. It was at this time that Li Xiu had the intention to laugh at Zhang Shiyi.

"Is it so mysterious?" Princess Pingyang said with some dissatisfaction when she saw Li Xiu not saying it. Then she walked over to ask Ma Master Ma, but Ma Master, who was so smiling that his stomach hurt, refused to say it, which made her have no choice but to wait for Qu Yi and his daughter to come out.

This delivery room is actually very simple. After giving birth, Qu Yi and his daughter must still live in their original bedroom. So after a while, Qu Yi was carried out of the delivery room by several maids. The newly born little guy was also lying beside her. Li Xiu curiously leaned over and took a look, but he saw that the little guy had red skin, his face and hands were wrinkled, which was as ugly as it was.

"It's so ugly. Do all the premature children look like this?" Li Xiu couldn't help but whisper to himself when he saw this ugly little guy. He remembered that in later TV dramas, the newly born children were all white and fat, one was more cute than the other. Why was it so ugly when he arrived at Qu Yi?

"It's like this when a child is born. What's the relationship with premature birth? When you were born, you were uglier than this child!" Hong Fu Nu's ears were pointed, and she couldn't help but glar at him when she heard Li Xiu's words.

Li Xiu didn't dare to argue with Hong Funnun, and he smiled and said nothing. In fact, he seemed to have heard of the fact that a newborn child was ugly before, but he had never seen it before. Today, he finally opened his eyes. A newborn child was even ugly than his.

After Qu Yi and his daughter left, the bearded guest immediately rushed into the delivery room and then went up to the second floor a few steps. Li Xiu and Ma Ye hurriedly followed. When they arrived at the second floor, Zhang Shiyi was lying on the ground in sweat, humming, as if he had given birth to the child just now. When he saw the bearded guest, Zhang Shiyi suddenly stood up and hugged the bearded guest's thigh. He started crying with a "wow~", as if he had suffered some great grievance.

"Brother Eleven, you are suffering!" Li Xiu wanted to make a heavy expression at this time, but for some reason, he couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhang Shiyi's embarrassing look. As for Mr. Ma, he even covered his mouth and turned around, and his shoulders shook. He knew what he was doing without asking, which made Li Jing next to him keep glaring at him with his eyes.

"Li Xiu! Tell me, did you know about this before?" Zhang Shiyi suddenly raised his head and stared at Li Xiu with red eyes and questioned. If Li Xiu had explained this to him yesterday, he would probably not agree no matter what. It would be too late to regret it later.

"Okay, Brother Eleven, I admit that I did know this in advance, but Qu Yi asked me not to tell you, so you can't blame me for this!" Li Xiu spread his hands at this time. What he told the truth was that when building this delivery room, Qu Yi had told him this custom and asked him to keep it confidential, so Zhang Shiyi could not blame him.

"You...I..." Zhang Shiyi didn't know what to say when he heard Li Xiu's words. Finally, he suddenly hugged the bearded guest again and cried bitterly. This custom was even more terrifying than what he looked like. If he had known this, even if he died, he would not have agreed to follow the customs of Qu Yi.

The bearded guest comforted Zhang Shiyi a few more words again, and then suddenly thought of something. He hurriedly lifted Zhang Shiyi's robe, then fiddled with it for a few times before he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, I have untied the rope, and it's just some skin trauma, which will not affect the future of having children!"

"I'll still live? I won't be born if I'm beaten to death!" Zhang Shiyi screamed in pain when he heard this, but this made Ma Master next to him laugh even more happily. Even Li Xiu almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

In fact, it is not a big deal that Zhang Shiyi had such a reaction. Who would have thought that Qu Yi and his hometown had such a strange custom. In the city-state of Wahakton, when a woman gave birth, her husband had to sit in the small building above, and then tied the descendants with a rope, and the rope was at the other end in the woman's hands. In this way, the woman would tighten the rope in pain during childbirth. It is said that this was done to let men experience the pain of a woman's childbirth.

Zhang Shiyi couldn't walk at this time, so Li Xiu helped to carry it down. The bridal chamber was occupied by Qu Yi and his daughter, so Zhang Shiyi could only stay in the guest room. After Zhang Shiyi was arranged, Li Xiu and Ma Ye came outside the yard and laughed loudly. Zhang Shiyi was probably the most tragic groom in the world. Not only did he fail to get a moment on his wedding night, he almost became a eunuch, and probably would have left a psychological shadow in the future.

In the next few days, Yi Niang and Princess Pingyang also visited Qu Yi and her children every day, especially the child was born one month prematurely and was relatively weak after birth, which really made people worry about her safety. You should know that in the Tang Dynasty, the mortality rate of babies was very high. However, perhaps because this mixed-race child had stronger vitality or Qu Yi's body was stronger, this premature baby girl was actually very healthy. According to Yi Niang, her appetite was surprisingly large. She felt that she had grown up in just a few days, and her skin was not as wrinkled as she was when she was just born, and she looked much more beautiful.

On this day, Li Xiu accompanied Yi Niang and Princess Pingyang to Qiuyan again. The two women entered the inner house to talk to Qu Yi, and Li Xiu came to the guest room to visit Zhang Shiyi. After several days of recuperation, Zhang Shiyi could walk at this time, but his posture was a bit strange when walking. The Qiuyan was also here, talking to Zhang Shiyi. When he saw Li Xiu, he also stood up and said, "Nephew, I will go back in a few days, so the Eleven and his wife asked you to take care of you!"

"Uncle, why are you going back soon?" Li Xiu couldn't help but say in surprise when he heard this. The bearded guest only lived for a few days last time, but this time he only lived for a few days before leaving. But he had just returned from America, so there was no need to be so busy, right?

"Haha, it's not okay if I don't leave. You also know that I have reached an agreement with the Wahakton city-state in the Americas to build a port there and transport the silver they produce. Last time I came back in a hurry and was not familiar with the route, so I only brought back a small amount of silver. But this silver alone is already several times the cost of my going out to sea. I can't give up such a large profit, so I plan to organize a fleet to the Americas for the second time!" The bearded guest said with a smile.

He is a pirate and a maritime businessman. Merchants always go for profit, not to mention that he has a bigger plan in the Americas, which requires preparation in advance, and he is not young anymore, so he is unwilling to waste any time.

"Okay, that nephew can only wish you a good luck in the uncle. As for Brother Eleven, you don't have to worry. I will definitely take good care of them!" Li Xiu also understood the thoughts in the bearded guest's heart. He did not advise him to stay anymore, but nodded.

"Thank you, Brother Li, but I think I can take good care of myself!" Zhang Shiyi said when he heard this, but the words he said later still revealed his resentment towards Li Xiu.

"Haha, Brother Eleven, we will be neighbors in the future, so we naturally have to take care of each other!" Li Xiu did not care about Zhang Shiyi's resentment, but instead laughed and said things to take care of each other, cleverly resolving the hard thorn in Zhang Shiyi's episode.

"Seeing it, this is what I call my mind. Put away your petty little bit of your heart!" The bearded guest glared at Zhang Shiyi at this time. After saying that, he glanced at Li Xiu again, and said in his heart that it was a pity that he didn't have such an excellent son, otherwise he could have given the son the matter of developing America to take his time, instead of taking everything himself.

The bearded guest was about to leave, and Li Xiu was also preparing to see him off, but at this moment, something suddenly happened, interrupting the bearded guest's plan to leave Chang'an. (To be continued.)
