Chapter 296: If It Doesn’t Work, We’ll Operate on Her

Zhang Kun nodded. “I should go to work. If you need anything, just call me!” he said.

“Go, be careful on the road,” Li Xu instructed.

The others were all gathered at the door of the delivery room, looking nervous, and had no time to talk to Zhang Kun.

Zhang Kun looked up and turned to leave.

Meng Xiaoning had not given birth until four in the afternoon.

Li Xu went home in the afternoon to take care of the children and cat lunch. The rest of the time, she stayed outside the delivery room and waited for Meng Xiaoning.

Hearing the howls coming from inside, Li Lei became very anxious.

The other three women were calmer than Li Lei because they had given birth before.

The doctor came out very quickly with a serious face. “The pregnant mother has no strength left. If this continues, her amniotic fluid will be gone, and the child will be in danger. Family members, please, go in and feed the pregnant woman some food, then observe her for another half an hour. If she can’t do it, we’ll operate on her!”

Liang Huimci’s vision turned black, and she almost fainted when she heard the word ‘operation’.

People of their age didn’t have enough medical awareness. The moment she heard that she was going to be operated on, she thought it was a big deal.

Seeing this, Li Lei quickly went forward and held Liang Huimei. “Mother, don’t worry. Xiaoning will be fine.”

When Li Xu heard this, she was a little anxious.

Although it was safe to perform a C-section, Xiaoning had already suffered for almost a day and a night. If she were to undergo surgery, all her previous suffering would have been in vain.

However, she had no more strength. If she waited for the amniotic fluid to dry up, the child would suffocate to death in her stomach.

Suddenly, Li Xu seemed to have thought of something.

If the pregnant woman had the strength, she might be able to give birth.

“Wait here. I’m going home,” she said immediately.

She glanced at the wall. It was already five o’clock, and Yuanyuan had already left school.

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.

She arrived home in less than ten minutes on her tricycle.

At home, the children were indeed all there.

The children were surprised when they saw Li Xu coming back panting.

Li Xu felt that Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang were in the way and quickly took out the money from her pocket. “I have to go to the hospital later, so I don’t have time to cook for you. Take the money and go downstairs to buy some dumplings.”

Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang did not suspect him and left after taking the money.

After the two brothers left, Li Xu went into the kitchen and took out a kettle. She instructed Ji Yuanyuan, “Quick, bring in some fresh spiritual spring water.”

Although the bucket was also filled with spiritual spring water, it had been taken out for many days. Li Xu felt that it was not as good as the fresh water in the interspace.

Ji Yuanyuan obediently poured the spiritual spring water into the kettle. Li Xu turned on the gas, and after boiling the water, she found a thermos cup in the corner of the kitchen when she bought the TV.

The water didn’t need to be boiled. It was spiritual spring water anyway, and there wouldn’t be parasites inside.

After the water was heated up, Li Xu poured the water into the vacuum flask that had been washed.

Ji Zi’ang and Ji Zixuan returned and bought three servings of dumplings.

Li Xu held a thermos in one hand and took three servings of dumplings with the other. “I’ll take these with me. You guys go and buy another set!”

As she walked out, Li Xu thought, “There were five people in the hospital, but there were only three servings of dumplings. It should not be enough.

But it was fine as long as the pregnant woman could eat her fill. They could cushion their stomachs first.

Behind them, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang looked at each other in surprise when they saw that their hands were empty.

A moment later, he sighed and looked at Ji Zi’ang. “Forget it. You stay at home with Yuanyuan. I’ll go buy more!”

Ji Zi’ang asked, “Can you carry it? Why don’t we go with you?”

Ji Zixuan shook his head. “No need. I can carry it!”

With that, he left the room.

Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zi’ang sat on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Ji Zi’ang was carefree and happy.

Ji Yuanyuan, however, was a little worried.

Just now, her mother was so anxious and even came back to get the spirit spring water. Could it be that Eldest Aunt’s condition was not good?

They could only wait for their father to come back and take them to the hospital to see the situation.

Li Xu hurriedly returned to the hospital and passed the thermos flask and dumplings to Li Lei. She instructed, “Go in and feed her some food and water. The water temperature is just right. Let her drink more. Otherwise, her throat will definitely hurt tomorrow after shouting for so long!”

Li Lei nodded quickly. After getting the doctor’s permission, he changed his clothes and went into the delivery room.

After running all the way, Li Xu was so tired that she sat down on the chair beside her.

She didn’t know if the spiritual spring water worked or not!

There were two portions of dumplings left. She called out to Liang Huimei and Liu Guihua, “1 bought some dumplings. Have some first.”

Liang Huimei waved her hand. “You guys go ahead,” she said in a low voice. “I can’t eat.”

Her daughter was suffering inside. How could she, as a Mother, take it?

Upon hearing this, Li Xu persuaded her in a low voice. “Sister-in-law, eat some. Otherwise, you won’t be able to hold on. When the child comes out, we’ll still have a lot of work to do!

“That’s right, in-law, ” Liu Guihua also advised. “If you can’t eat, you can have a few bites.”

After much persuasion, Liang Huimei finally managed to eat a few dumplings.

In the delivery room, Li Lei half-supported Meng Xiaoning’s upper body and brought the glass of water to Meng Xiaoning’s mouth, mumbling, “Drink more.

Drink two more mouthfuls…”

Meng Xiaoning had been in pain and shouting for the whole day, and her throat was indeed a little sore.

She gulped down all the water in the thermos in one go.

Li Lei picked up another dumpling and placed it near her mouth. “Eat two dumplings and get more strength!”

Meng Xiaoning obediently gritted her teeth and forced herself to stuff a few dumplings into her stomach.

She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but after eating the dumplings, Meng Xiaoning felt like she was full of energy.

She grabbed Li Lei’s hand with all her might, gritted her teeth, and exerted all her strength.

A few seconds later, the doctor suddenly said in surprise, “Continue. The child is coming out soon. I can see the head…”

When Meng Xiaoning heard this, she quickly started to exert force again.

She worked hard again and again to match the doctor’s rhythm.

Her eyelids were heavy, but she knew she couldn’t fall asleep.

“Waa…” The child was finally out.

Meng Xiaoning lay on the bed, exhausted. She could not even open her eyes.

“Congratulations, it’s a little princess.” The doctor said.

Hearing this, Meng Xiaoning finally fainted with relief.

When Zhang Kun arrived with the children, Meng Xiaoning had already been transferred to the ward.

Zhang Kun put the thermos on the bed. “This is chicken soup. It has been stewed for several hours!”

“Sorry to trouble you, Brother-in-law. You still think about us even when you’re at work.” Liang Huimei said politely.

He had been stewing it for several hours. He had started stewing it at work.

Zhang Kun smiled. “We’re family. It’s what I should do. Besides, it’s convenient for me to go to work, so I made it.”

“Thankyou, Brother-in-law!” Meng Xiaoning said in a hoarse voice.

Ji Zi’ang was not happy to hear these adults talk. He was more curious about the baby.

“Uncle, is the baby a little brother or a little sister? Where are you now? Why can’t I see it?”
