The Fallen Medicine Woman: The Daily Life of Chun Nuan-Chapter 340 - 203: A New Addition to the Xia Mansion

This was what Nanny Su told Nanny Zhou. One was Mrs. Xia’s loyal servant, and the other was her wet nurse. The two got along like old sisters, without a hint of intrigue, having deep affection and exchanging needs, all ultimately for the good of their masters.

Nanny Zhou was very impressed that the family traditions of the Xia family and the Xiao family were truly similar.

Not like the Wu family, where the masters and the servants were playing mind games, all scheming like a mess of black chicken eyes.

Saying even a word requires careful thought, fearing that one mistake might cause trouble for the lady.

At Xia Mansion, there’s no need to worry about these issues.

Each performs their duties, all for the good of their masters, without exception.

"Mother, have some too."

"Don’t worry about me, let Cheng’er accompany you, we’re resting outside." Mrs. Xia said, "After you’re done eating, if you’re able to move, it’s good to walk around, the more you move, the quicker the childbirth will be."

This is something Mrs. Xia has experience with.

"When Cheng’er was born, the midwife told me to move, so I walked around continuously, circled the pomegranate tree in the yard three times, and just as I returned to the room, I had him." Mrs. Xia recalled her courage of that year: "The midwife said she had never seen a woman deliver as quickly as I did in all her years of experience."

Mrs. Xia concluded that it was because she didn’t rest even when she was pregnant.

"Back then, border warfare was tense, the city guarded by the old General was besieged by the enemy for three months, with severe food and water shortages. We had to keep the unity between the military and civilians, so even with a big belly, I went to the city wall to visit the injured soldiers, bringing them water and porridge."

It’s no exaggeration to say that back then, her reputation as Mrs. Xia surged not because of General Xia, but because she was genuinely doing good work.

She truly treated those soldiers as her own brothers. When there were many injured in battles and military doctors were overwhelmed, she would roll up her sleeves and help bandage wounds; if a soldier was feeling down, she would act as a big sister to gently comfort and guide them... Thus, much of Mrs. Xia’s prestigious title of commendation was earned by herself.

Among the wives with commendations, her honor was the strongest!

Xiao Chunyu ate a bowl of soup and two pieces of cake, feeling a bit full.

During eating, she experienced pain twice, but when the pain subsided, she quickly ate.

She knew deeply that childbirth is a strenuous affair.

"Yu’er, need some food relief?"

"Yes."

Xia Guangcheng held her hand and walked slowly with her. When she was in pain, Xia Guangcheng let her rest using his leg as a stool, as she leaned on him to relax. After recovering, he supported her to walk again.

They walked like this for almost half an hour, and Xiao Chunyu felt a warm flow gush out.

"I think the amniotic fluid has broken."

As soon as she spoke, Xia Guangcheng lifted her in his arms and carried her back to the pre-prepared delivery room.

The midwife inspected and told her it was fast approaching.

"Madam, your baby is positioned well, and the dilation is quick, it will be very smooth."

"Thank you for your good words and for your hard work."

"No need to thank me, Ma’am. Rest assured, I will ensure you and your child’s safety."

This brought tears to Xiao Chunyu’s eyes.

Even when it came to childbirth, when she had Panpan, she was panicked, without a sense of security, not knowing what to do, with her mind blank.

With this child, everyone was well prepared, eagerly anticipating the arrival of the child.

Yes, she remembered, Nuannuan sent her two bottles of pills, each containing only two pills.

"Molan, bring me one pill from each of those bottles."

Nuannuan instructed that these pills are to be taken before childbirth.

Nuannuan didn’t specify the effects, just advised taking them before labor began.

The other bottle, with dark green pills, is to be taken if necessary after childbirth.

"Madam, which one should be taken first?"

"Take the pill from the yellow bottle," Chunyu said, "Molan, remember, if there’s severe bleeding after childbirth, give me a pill from the dark green bottle, if not, don’t use it."

"Ma’am, you definitely won’t need it, trust me." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Hope so."

Xiao Chunyu was comforted by these words, yes, she was indeed a bit worried.

She was also grateful that her second sister Nuannuan considered her early.

Her second sister knew what she went through when Panpan was born, so she developed two types of pills and had them sent.

In the delivery room, Xiao Chunyu endured the pain, while Xia Guangcheng walked back and forth outside.
