Chapter 105: Protect the Child or the Mother!

“I don’t understand. If the child in her stomach is so important to you, why did you take such a risk to bring her out?!”

Pei Qian pretended not to know.

“Your aunt is stubborn.” Gao Xuwei’s expression froze for a moment before it was replaced by an awkward smile. “Sigh, I had no choice.

In our family, she always had the final say.

The matter of my descendants had been left hanging.

She always told me to wait a little longer. But you know how your aunt’s health has been over the years. She’s not young anymore. When she returned to the capital a few years ago, the imperial physicians had seen her a few times. Didn’t they say that it wouldn’t be easy for her to give birth?!

I just thought that if it didn’t work out, I would carry a few children back and give them to your aunt to raise. Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds?!

But your aunt is stubborn and won’t agree to anything!

Sigh!

The family has been in chaos for the past two years. I’ve tried to persuade your aunt countless times, but she just refused to agree! Sigh!

There was no other way!

“Now that she has finally gotten pregnant, your aunt is causing more and more trouble every day. I have no choice but to bring her to pick you up. I want you to go over and persuade your aunt.”

Gao Xuwei sighed. It seemed that he had been mentally and physically exhausted these past few years.

But what did that have to do with him?!

Pei Qian didn’t reply. He lowered his eyes slightly and took another sip of tea.

Pei Qian and the others didn’t wait long before Lin Suisui and Lu Ze walked over.

“Go in and take a look.” When he saw Lin Suisui, Pei Qian’s attitude was very stiff. His arrogance made Gao Xuwei, who was pacing around, frown.

Wasn’t this sort of attitude towards a weak woman a little too overboard?

Lin Suisui wasn’t surprised at all. She lowered her eyes and bowed to Pei Qian before turning around and walking into the tent.

In the eyes of General Gao, this unfamiliarity seemed just right.

The situation in the tent was even more chaotic than what was happening outside.

Although there were four girls and three women with this woman, to be honest, they couldn’t handle the situation! If it was a normal delivery, they would be able to handle it, but this was clearly a premature delivery!

Moreover, from the looks of it, it was very likely that she would have a difficult labor!

“When did it start?!” As Lin Suisui walked forward, she went to the copper basin at the side to wash her hands. Then, she walked to the bed to sit down and pulled the wet nurse’s wrist to take her pulse.

“Ever since we arrived at this camp just now, she said that she had a stomachache. We’ve been traveling for the past few days and didn’t rest well. We thought that she would be fine after drinking the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine.

“But about two hours ago, her water suddenly broke. We really don’t know what to do!”

Hearing Lin Suisui’s question, the anxious old granny quickly bowed and reported to Lin Suisui in detail. She was afraid that she would miss a detail that might affect Lin Suisui’s diagnosis.

Others might not know, but she did.

The general had high hopes for this little girl, no, for the child in her stomach!

If anything happened to this child, they would probably have to die as punishment.

“The position of the fetus isn’t right. Half of the amniotic fluid has leaked! If we delay any longer, it will be difficult to protect the mother and child.” Lin Suisui took her pulse and checked the fetus’s condition before retracting her hand. Then, she turned to the nanny at the side and said calmly, “I’ll have to trouble you to go out and ask your general if we should protect the child or the mother.”

Although this question was cruel, it was the kind of question doctors or midwives asked every time they encountered such a situation.

Sometimes, it was difficult to save both.

“Protect the child of course.”

Not long after the old woman left, Gao Xuwei’s anxious roar came from outside the tent. “As long as you can keep this child safe, Doctor, feel free to use whatever method you want!”

Although she had expected this outcome, Lin Suisui still felt a chill run down her spine when she heard it.

Judging from the woman’s attire, she must have been doted on by General Gao previously.

However, no matter how much he doted on her in the past, now that he had to face a choice, women were often the first to be abandoned!

In front of children, women were nothing!

“It hurts… It hurts…”

The woman had been exhausted after most of the day. Her entire body trembled as she moaned softly, but she still didn’t forget to reach out to protect her bulging abdomen. Although her eyes were unfocused, she still looked straight at Lin Suisui.

The yearning in her eyes was heartbreaking.

“Are you willing to believe me for once?!” Lin Suisui bent down slightly and whispered into the woman’s ear, “Let’s take a risk. If we win, you and the child will be fine. If we lose, at least we can save the child!

“But if you want to win, you have to listen to my instructions. How about that?!”

“Alright… I’ll listen to you. No matter what, I beg you, at least save my child!” The woman’s originally unfocused eyes suddenly lit up. With a trembling hand, she reached out and grabbed Lin Suisui’s sleeve.

Lin Suisui patted the back of the woman’s hand gently. She comforted her first before standing up and walking out of the tent.

Gao Xuwei, who was still waiting for news outside, didn’t expect Lin Suisui to come out at this time! He couldn’t help but walk over anxiously. If Lu Ze hadn’t come over first and shielded Lin Suisui, this General Gao probably would have attacked.

“Didn’t I ask you to protect the child with all your might? Why did you come out at this time?!

“Let me tell you, if anything happens to my son, I’ll be the first to cut off your head and bury you with him!”

“The child hasn’t been born yet. How do you know it must be a son?! I came out because I have something to tell you! The situation inside is very bad now. If you want to save the child in the woman’s stomach, some preparations are necessary!”

Lin Suisui stuck her head out from behind Lu Ze and met Gao Xuwei’s gaze very calmly and without any fear.

“How do you want to save that child?!” Before Gao Xuwei could speak, Pei Qian stood up and asked curiously.

“By having a C-section!” Lin Suisui turned around and said firmly!
