My Demon Husband Is a Snake-Chapter 942: Old Man, I’ve Got a Substitute!

"It’s not me doing the delivery; I’ve specifically brought our Rat Tribe’s renowned gynecologist and midwife." Qi Yaogang shook his sleeve and out tumbled a nest of small black mice. "All female, Madam, rest assured."

The little mice gathered around Qi Yaogang’s feet, squeaking incessantly.

To prevent Xuanjing from breaking in through the window, Yu Longting raised his hand and sealed the open window again.

"That’s all well and good, but..." I’m truly at my wit’s end, looking at the bright-eyed mice on the ground, feeling a headache coming on.

Could it really be that I’ve fallen so far as to need a bunch of mice to deliver my baby??

But these are well-cultivated mice, definitely very clean.

Not like wild mice, carrying a lot of germs.

Various discomforting thoughts raced through my mind like a speeding train.

Qi Yaogang asked worriedly, "Does the lady have any other questions? If not, this old man will check your pulse."

"No, no problem." I extended my wrist, despite holding a ginseng slice, my legs were still trembling from weakness. "Can you call me by my name? Stop calling me ’lady.’ It makes me feel like I’m in a Qing dynasty drama, and getting out of the scene will throw me off. How can I give birth then?"

"I shall call you Miss Wan. You have done this old man a favor; calling you by name seems improper." Qi Yaogang said stiffly.

Yu Longting immediately noticed my exhaustion and, without a word, carried me to the bed. "With Elder Qi here, my wife’s labor will certainly go smoothly, right? Elder Qi!"

"Haha, of course, Snake Lord. Just try to keep the lady’s spirits up by chatting with her; I’ll take care of everything else." Qi Yaogang followed us to the bedside, kneeling down with compassion befitting a true healer, and took my pulse.

Watching Qi Yaogang’s focused demeanor, I couldn’t help asking, "Have you been following us the entire way?"

"Considering my lady’s true body has not been tended to, how could I give up?" Qi Yaogang, still focused on checking my pulse, managed to split his attention to chat with me.

Yu Longting said, "If you can save my wife and child, I’ll even take care of your clothes, whatever it takes."

"No, no, no, I don’t want any demons caring for them. If demons could, I’d do it myself." Qi Yaogang said dismissively.

The vein on Yu Longting’s brow was pulsing, his face dark as coal.

Yet, I knew he definitely wouldn’t lose his temper.

We are all rookies at childbirth, causing a chaotic mess, and outside there’s Xuanjing already cursing away, jabbering incessantly.

At present, our only reliable support might be the naturally skilled Rat Tribe.

Yu Longting was silent for less than two seconds before he spoke, "If you can ensure their safety, I’ll let my wife undress from my cheongsam and wear your wife’s, satisfied?"

"Satisfied, satisfied!" Qi Yaogang beamed, but then he changed the subject, "However..."

This guy has quite a few demands??

I thought to myself, if not for the Dumpling, I wouldn’t give up Yu Longting’s cheongsam.

Yu Longting also narrowed his eyes dangerously, slowly drawing out a purple Mysterious Thunder Talisman from his sleeve.

At this, Qi Yaogang broke out in a sweat, not daring to tease further. "Haha, well, I’ve now realized, it’s not necessary for Miss Wan to wear it. I have a quite adequate substitute."

A substitute??

Since there’s a substitute, why not seek the substitute instead of rushing over to deliver for me?

Qi Yaogang pointed to Xiao Shenshen with a smile and said, "You don’t have to decide right away. After Miss Wan gives birth, you can consider it at leisure."
