Chapter 397 Giving birth
Wenzhu said, "This is the general's wife. Let's go to the farm to see her."
The man then said nervously, "Forgive my poor eyesight, I really didn't see it, but it's the General's wife. Come in quickly."
He opened the door.
The driver drove the carriage into the farm, unloaded the carriage and led the horses to feed grass.
Jin Yuyao and Wenzhu got off the carriage and saw that the yard was very large, much larger than the yard in Lanshan County.
The man asked, "The General's wife is finally here. We've been waiting for someone from the General's Mansion, but no one has come. Come out soon, Shan Gen's mother. The General's wife is here."
A woman about his age came out from the side room in the backyard.
The old woman was about to kneel down when she saw Jin Yuyao.
Jin Yuyao quickly supported her and said, "Hurry up and get up."
As they heard their voices, a young couple came out of the room next door.
The old man Liu said, "They are my son and daughter-in-law. Shangen and Juhua, come and meet the general's wife."
Liu Shangen supported Chen Juhua and came to Jin Yuyao and saluted: "Greetings, General's wife."
Jin Yuyao said, "You don't need to be so polite when you are in such poor health."
Shan Gen Niang brought Jin Yuyao into the room.
Jin Yuyao looked at the room and saw that it was cleaned very well.
Jin Yuyao looked at the young couple and said, "Have you planted crops in the fields recently?"
Liu Shangen said, "Don't worry, Mr. Farmer. Although we are short on manpower, we will never let the land go to waste. We have been planting as quickly as possible recently."
Jin Yuyao asked, "Then everyone else left. Why did your family stay?"
Liu Shangen: "Everyone else has a new place to go, but we don't have any relatives or friends here. We've been farmers for generations and don't know anything else. If we leave, we're afraid we'll starve to death, so we stayed."
Jin Yuyao saw that the room was very clean.
Chen Juhua said, "Don't worry, Madam. We come to clean the room every day. We are also waiting for the people from the General's Mansion to arrive."
Jin Yuyao said, "How much land is left to be planted? It seems that the time is almost up. How about you find some people to help and pay them according to the local price?"
Liu Shangen said, "Madam, that's great! We were just worried about what to do today. It would be a shame if such good land were left uncultivated. We didn't dare to come here."
Jin Yuyao said: "If you do your best, I will not treat you unfairly."
"Thank you, Madam Jinjun"
Chen Juhua said, "Madam, I will go cook for you this afternoon."
Jin Yuyao said, "You're about to give birth, you should rest for a while."
Chen Juhua said, "Madam General, it's the same for all of us farmers. It's okay. We're used to it. It's just that there's nothing delicious to eat."
Jin Yuyao watched him go down.
Shan said to his father, "Old woman, I am going to work in the fields. Let Shangen go to the village to hire some people."
After saying this, the father and son walked out.
Jin Yuyao wanted to take a look around, so she walked out of the room and looked at the yard. The environment seemed pretty good.
The Yamane woman said, "There are some fruit trees and vegetables planted behind the yard, but there are no vegetables at the moment. If there are any fruits, I will have someone send them to Madam."
Jin Yuyao has been very busy recently. After coming out and looking at the yard with its lush greenery, she felt completely relaxed.
The location is pretty good. There is only a farm nearby, a mountain not far away, and a village at the foot of the mountain.
She suddenly heard the sound of porcelain breaking in the kitchen, followed by a cry of pain.
Shan Gen Niang said, "Madam, my daughter-in-law is in the kitchen. I'll go see what happened."
Jin Yuyao said: "I'll go with you."
After saying that, he ran to the kitchen: "Juhua, what's wrong with you?"
Jin Yuyao followed behind her and heard the painful cries from inside, as well as Shangen Niang's anxious cries.
She quickly followed him in.
Jin Yuyao saw Chen Juhua lying on the ground with sweat all over her head, she couldn't help but make a sound of pain, and her lower body was already bleeding.
Shan Gen Niang hugged Chen Juhua's upper body, terrified and bewildered. She kept saying, "It's not even the due date yet, and she's about to give birth? We haven't even found a midwife yet. What should I do?"
Jin Yuyao looked at Wen Zhu and said, "Hurry up and send the woman to her room. She's giving birth."
Wenzhu walked over and went to help.
Several people carried Chen Juhua to the kang in the house.
Shan Gen Niang stamped her feet and said, "There is no midwife in the village. What should we do? Madam, please take care of her first. I will go find Lai Shan and his father and ask him to find a midwife in the neighboring village."
Jin Yuyao asked, "Is there no midwife in the village?"
Mrs. Liu shook her head.
Jin Yuyao said, "No need to go. Go boil some water and prepare some scissors, clean cotton cloth, and so on."
Old Lady Liu was a little stunned when she heard what Jin Yuyao said.
Jin Yuyao said, "I am the doctor. You should get ready. I will go see Juhua."
Yamane-san then said, "Thank you, ma'am."
After Shan Gen Niang left, Jin Yuyao said to Wen Zhu, "Wen Zhu, are you scared?"
Wen Zhu shook his head: "Madam, don't worry, I have seen all kinds of scenes."
"Then you stay here and help me."
Jin Yuyao looked at Chen Juhua and said, "Juhua, relax. You've just started having contractions. The more nervous you are, the more painful it will be. I'm a doctor, trust me."
Chen Juhua nodded reluctantly.
Jin Yuyao checked the fetal position and found nothing wrong.
The baby is not too big, so it should be possible to give birth naturally.
Jin Yuyao helped Chen Juhua breathe, hoping to relieve her pain.
I thought it would open very quickly, but Chen Juhua's cervix opened very slowly.
It was less than three fingers until the evening.
Jin Yuyao was comforting the mother inside, saying that they couldn't wait too long to check on the child's condition, otherwise the child would easily suffer from hypoxia.
She knew it was time to pick up a pen and paper, write down a prescription, and leave the room. There were no more pills to induce labor in the space, so she could only pick some herbs and boil them.
She said to Liu Shangen, "Go get the medicine quickly, and bring it back as soon as possible after boiling it."
Liu Shangen didn't dare to delay any longer.
Yamane's mother and father were waiting anxiously outside.
Wenzhu was wiping Chen Juhua's sweat.
She watched anxiously from the side and said, "Madam, why hasn't she given birth yet after being in so much pain for so long?"
"Her cervix is not fully dilated yet. Only when it is dilated can the baby be born smoothly."
She never had a caesarean section because she was afraid that the conditions in ancient times were too poor and if it got infected, it could be fatal.
Liu Shangen finally knocked on the door with the medicine.
Jin Yuyao brought it in and asked Juhua to drink it.
After a while, the cervix opened little by little.
At this time, the three people waiting outside were also waiting anxiously.
Shan said to his father, "Old woman, is it okay for the lady to be in here? Why are you letting her deliver the baby here? Otherwise, why don't you go to the capital and find a midwife?"
Mrs. Liu said, "Juhua fell to the ground, and the ground was covered in blood. Madam said he was a doctor, and then we..."
Shan Gen said, "Dad, I asked when I got the medicine, and the doctor said there was nothing wrong with the prescription. We can only rely on Madam now, but I heard there's a very famous doctor in the capital, who was given the title of County Master or something."
