The person who came was Zhao Duan. Zhao Duan was also dressed in disguise. Although he was not as bearded as Chu Xiuming, but his skin was dark and he was wearing patched cloth shoes. He did not look like a scholar at all. Zhao Duanzheng was holding a big bowl of chicken noodle soup and eating delicious food. He has been running around all the time, but it is not like Shen Jin and the others who eat meat every day in their courtyard. They eat vegetarian all day long, and his eyes are almost green .
When Chu Xiuming arrived, Zhao Duan was finishing his last sip of soup, and then he spat out comfortably and said, "I feel alive."
"Would you like some more?" Chu Xiuming was flipping through the letter brought back by Zhao Duan, without raising his head.
Zhao Duan thought for a while and said, "No need." Holding the teacup, he drank slowly, "These are the names of those people."
Chu Xiuming nodded, read all the letters, and divided them into three parts. The one on the far left was the least, with only three copies, the middle one had more, and the one on the right had five or six.
Zhao Duan walked over after cleaning his hands, looked at it and said, "Is there a problem with the one on the right?"
Chu Xiuming responded, "I'm not sure."
"What about the one on the left?" Zhao Duan asked.
Chu Xiuming's eyes darkened, and he said, "The person who betrayed the first prince."
Zhao Duan's face turned serious, and Chu Xiuming sneered, "It was thanks to these three families that Emperor Cheng was able to go so smoothly at the beginning, but they did it in a concealed way, and it took so many years to find out."
At that time, they were all suspecting that some people were not from the former prince, but Emperor Cheng dealt with them. Everyone knew that they were probably traitors, and because of this, Chu Xiuyuan's father did not Many people who dared to be involved with the people left behind by the former prince were involved. In the end, they deduced several suspects based on the situation of the betrayed person, and after so many years of investigation, they confirmed them.
Zhao Duan frowned and said, "Dispose of it?"
Chu Xiuming said, "It's not the time yet."
Zhao Duan picked up the three copies on the right and looked carefully, wrote down all the people and said, "What about the middle one?"
"Temporarily believable." Chu Xiuming said after a moment of thought.
Zhao Duan picked out a few and said, "But these people are a little vacillating."
Chu Xiuming looked at Zhao Duan, "Because they don't know Chu Xiuyuan yet."
Zhao Duan was stunned for a moment and then he understood that these people just had no faith in King Rui. Zhao Duan nodded and wrote them all down. The two of them talked about the next arrangement. Zhao Duan didn't plan to go back to the border city , he wants to stay to be a bridge between the border town and the capital, and Chu Xiuming will stay for the time being, just to take care of Shen Jin. Xiuming returned to the room and glanced at Shen Jin on the bed. None of them dared to leave Shen Jin alone at night, lest some things would not be discovered, so Chu Xiuming was not there, and An Ning rested on the soft couch beside him.
Seeing Chu Xiuming, An Ning bowed and went down first.
As soon as Chu Xiuming took off his clothes and went to bed, Shen Jin turned over and rubbed into his arms. Chu Xiuming gently stroked Shen Jin's back and asked softly, "Why did you wake up?"
Shen Jin didn't open his eyes, obviously very sleepy, and whispered, "I'm a little hungry."
Chu Xiuming tucked the quilt for Shen Jin and said, "May I go and cook two eggs for you?"
Shen Jin thought for a while and nodded, "I want brown sugar."
Chu Xiuming complied, and turned directly out of bed. Aunt Qian and the others had already woken up, and Anyi was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Seeing Chu Xiuming, she asked, "What do you want Madam?"
"It's fine if I come." Chu Xiuming also knows how to cook, and besides, it's just simple sugar water eggs. After thinking about it, he boiled six eggs, then put them in a large bowl and brought them back to the house.
An Yi waited for Chu Xiuming to leave before getting busy again. When Aunt Qian came in, An Yi had already cooked the porridge.
When he returned to the room, Shen Jin was sitting on the bed with the quilt in his arms. Chu Xiuming put the bowl aside first, then waited for Shen Jin to rinse his mouth with water, and then sat on the bed and fed Shen Jin. Shen Jin was in a daze , Leaning on Chu Xiuming's body, his eyes were closed, and he just opened his mouth to eat something when it was fed to his mouth. After eating two eggs, he stopped eating. Chu Xiuming used up the rest, He put the bowl aside and saw Shen Jin frowning slightly, and asked, "But it's uncomfortable?"
Shen Jin nodded and said, "My stomach hurts a bit, but it's not too painful."
Chu Xiuming's face turned serious, and he reached out to touch Shen Jin's head, "I'll call Doctor Qian."
Just as Shen Jin grabbed Chu Xiuming's hand and wanted to say something, he felt a warm current... His eyes widened suddenly, and then he looked at Chu Xiuming and said, "Call Aunt Qian, take me to the delivery room."
Chu Xiuming also understood. He didn't care about anything else, wrapped Shen Jin in a quilt, and ran outside. Hearing the movement, Jia Yi and Jia Si looked over, and when they saw Chu Xiuming's direction, they were stunned for a while and then understood One of them hurried to call Anyi and Aunt Qian in the kitchen, and the other called Dr. Qian who was making medicinal materials in the backyard.
An Yi was choosing vegetables, and after listening to Jia Yi's words, she turned to Aunt Qian. Aunt Qian said after cleaning her hands, "You stay here to boil the water, and An Yi and I will go and have a look."
"Yes." A nodded, and started to fetch water to boil.
An Yi supported Aunt Qian and walked quickly towards the delivery room. An Ning lived here, and everything inside was packed. Chu Xiuming put Shen Jin on the bed and said, "Don't be afraid."
An Ning hurried to get some more charcoal basins, Shen Jin nodded, her stomach was just throbbing, and said, "I'm not afraid."
Chu Xiuming responded, wiped Shen Jin's sweat, held Shen Jin's hand and said, "I'm here to accompany you."
Shen Jin just wanted to nod, but thinking of Dongdong's appearance when he was born, he said, "No, you wait outside."
Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Jin's eyes, and didn't care about Aunt Qian who had come over. He lowered his head and kissed Shen Jin's forehead and said, "Okay, I'll be outside."
Only then did Shen Jin nod, and Chu Xiuming sat beside Shen Jin, let Shen Jin rest on his lap and said, "I'll go out later."
"Okay." Shen Jin didn't feel any pain anymore, and he was much more energetic.
Aunt Qian came to ask a few words, and checked Shen Jin carefully, and then Doctor Qian also came to feel the pulse, "I'm afraid it will take a while, I will use some things first, so as not to run out of energy for a while. "
Shen Jin thought about it for a while, she didn't even use breakfast, at this time Shen Jin had completely forgotten about the two sugar-watered eggs just now, An Yi asked with a smile, "Madam, what do you want to use to tell me? Here we go."
"Sour noodles." Shen Jin looked at Anyi expectantly, she suddenly wanted to eat this kind of hot and sour food.
Chu Xiuming rubbed Shen Jin's head, An Yi agreed, and hurried down to get ready.
Now the pain is intermittent. After running out of things, Chu Xiuming was kicked out by Shen Jin. He stood at the door of the delivery room and looked inside. Zhao Duan also heard the movement and woke up. When he saw Chu Xiuming, he didn’t know why. He actually felt chills in his heart, and he even had a premonition that if something happened to Shen Jin, Chu Xiuming... wouldn't be so vicious that he would kill him all
Doctor Qian had already prepared the medicinal materials, and comforted him at this time, "Don't worry, General."
Chu Xiuming nodded, Doctor Qian thought for a while and said, "Madam will be fine." But the child couldn't guarantee it.
"En." Chu Xiuming lowered his eyes slightly, watched his fingers move, and then said, "Jiayi, go and buy some soft pastries, sweet ones."
Shen Jin likes to eat sweet things, and the same goes for pastries. She doesn't like dry ones very much. She likes glutinous rice and yams. It's a pity that Mother Zhao is not here. As soon as A gets the order, she rushes to buy pastries up.
Zhao Duan stood by Chu Xiuming's side. He couldn't help much now, but said, "When the child is born and confinement is over, it's better to let them go to Chuyuan." The border town is too far away from the capital, and at that time the capital Fearing that there would be chaos, Chu Xiuming wouldn't be at ease if they were left here.
After hearing the words, Chu Xiuming thought for a while and said, "That's fine."
Zhao Duan responded, "I will pass by Chuyuan when I return to the border town, and tell my father."
Chu Xiuming nodded, "Then please trouble Mr. Zhao Ru."
"It's okay." Zhao Duan said, "Auspicious people have their own destiny." Foolish people must have good fortune, "Jin girl and children will be fine."
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything more, and Zhao Duan also knew that Chu Xiuming was restless, so he stayed with him for a while and then left.
When Jia Yi bought the cakes and came back, Shen Jin hadn't started to make them yet, so Chu Xiuming personally cut the pastries into sizes that Shen Jin could eat in one bite. Doctor Qian has already boiled ginseng soup. This ginseng was brought out by Shen Jin from the palace. No one knows how much it will be used, but it is better to prepare first. He doesn't care about these things, what he cares about is his wife.
With the passage of time, Shen Jin's face in the delivery room became paler, and An Yi and An Ning lost their previous composure. Shen Jin clutched the mattress tightly with both hands, endured the pain, and worked hard to cooperate with Aunt Qian. She looks delicate However, her temper was not like that. Shouting out loud would only waste her energy.
The smell of blood in the delivery room became stronger and stronger, Aunt Qian gritted her teeth and said, "Anning, please help her walk in the room."
An Ning looked at Shen Jin when she heard the words, Shen Jin actually couldn't hear Aunt Qian's voice clearly, An Yi nodded, An Ning and Anyi firmly helped Shen Jin get out of bed, Aunt Qian put on Shen Jin's shoes An Ning and the others almost carried Shen Jin and walked around the room, Shen Jin couldn't hold back the pain, gritted his teeth and followed An Ning and the others.
At this time, it was already dark, and Jia Yi and Jia Er didn't say a word, they stood in the yard with Chu Xiuming, Chu Xiuming's fists were clenched tightly, Jia Yi looked down at the ground, the blood on the ground was a little dry, a little It was still fresh, and blood beads kept falling from Chu Xiuming's fist.
The ginseng soup had already been sent in, and An Ning fed Shen Jin to drink with red eyes.
Shen Jin only felt pain, and there was an indescribable feeling. She really wanted to hear An Ning and the others' voices, but she couldn't hear them clearly... But she knew that her husband was still waiting outside, and her son was still there. A further place is waiting for her to go back... Husband, Dongdong... Mother...
When the cry of the child came out, it was already dawn, and it was the Shangsi Festival on the third day of March.
After the first child was born, Shen Jin turned her head to look at the child that An Ning carried to the side for cleaning. In fact, she couldn't see the child's appearance clearly at all, but the cry of the child was really loud...
