The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Yang Chuxia nodded at the words.

Afterward, the midwife also came forward to check her pulse and so on.

Downstairs, the helpers were boiling water and running to the Yang Family to call for people.

Very soon, Ms. Wang also arrived.

"How is it now?"

"The cervix hasn’t dilated yet."

A while later, Grandma Lin said, "The cervix has just started to dilate, we still need to wait."

"Mingcui, go down and ask Li to make some brown sugar ginseng soup." Ms. Wang hurriedly instructed. Then she took out some ginseng slices from her own bosom.

Yang Chuxia said, "Mother, I have ginseng here, Granny Meng has already helped to cut it."

"I was just worried you might forget," Ms. Wang said from the side.

Yet another while passed, and Yang Chuxia felt the pain intensify, noticing a wetness below.

Grandma Lin then said, "The water has broken, it won’t be long now. Everybody who isn’t needed, please go out."

"Mother, you stay!" At this time, Yang Chuxia felt some panic, Ye Zi’an was not there, and without a familiar person by her side, she was worried.

"Oh, don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere; I’m right here watching, don’t be afraid," Ms. Wang comforted her by patting her hand.

"Mother, if there’s any mishap, remember to save the child," Yang Chuxia added.

Upon hearing this, Ms. Wang hastened, "Tush, tush, tush, don’t talk nonsense. Rest assured, there are not so many ’what ifs’."

Grandma Lin was also somewhat amused and comforted her, "Madam Ye, you just relax. Your pregnancy is healthy, and though it’s your first time, I’ve never seen a cervix dilate as quickly as yours. I bet the little ones inside can’t bear to see their mother suffer."

It must be said, the midwife was very good at talking and at easing the mother’s worries.

After about one hour, the midwife announced that the cervix was fully dilated and instructed her to start pushing.

Her labor was indeed as the midwife said, very quick. The cervix dilated rapidly, and the birth went swiftly and smoothly. Just as dawn was breaking, the first cries were heard.

Then the midwife congratulated her, "Madam, it’s a young master!"

No sooner had she spoken than Yang Chuxia felt another wave of pain.

Then the midwife said, "Ah, another young master, Madam truly is fortunate, giving birth to two sons in one delivery."

"Good, good, that’s excellent!" Ms. Wang was ecstatic. "Rewards, everyone get your rewards!"

The helpers outside, including Li, also heard the news and were overjoyed.

Yang Dachuan, who had just come from outside, heard the news as well and, learning about his two grandsons, was so excited he scarcely knew what to do with himself.

He kept exclaiming, "Rewards, rewards, rewards..."

The servants nearby were thrilled. They were always hoping for more happy occasions to receive more rewards.

When Yang Chuxia awoke again, it was afternoon.

Upon opening her eyes, she saw two wrinkled little babies, wrapped in thin blankets, lying side by side.

"So ugly!"

Tsk tsk, some Xiaxia’s first comment about her sons was just this. In the future, the two children would harbor this grievance for a long time.

Ms. Wang, who had just come in with a food tray, burst into laughter upon hearing her words, "All newborns look like this. These two children are actually quite good-looking already. You were even less appealing when you were born."

Yang Chuxia knew that newborns were not attractive, but thinking about her own appearance as a baby, she childishly couldn’t accept it. "Mother, wasn’t I at least a little better looking than these two?"

After Ms. Wang took a serious look at her grandsons and thought it over carefully, she still shook her head, "You really weren’t better looking than them; there wasn’t much to eat or drink when I was pregnant with you, and when you were born, you were just skin and bones, quite a pitiful sight. Your father and I were even worried we couldn’t keep you alive."
