Chapter 309: The Birth of a Child
Brilliant rays of light lingered above the roof of Ningxin Garden, painting a beautiful picture. The Empress Dowager, who was hurriedly entered the house with the help of the palace maid Wanting, looked up and said in surprise, "Good luck! My precious grandson will surely be a man of great fortune and luck."
Empress Dowager Zhaoning also smiled and said, "Li'er's child must not be an ordinary person. This celestial phenomenon is an excellent omen."
Regent Zhao Defang, who had been pacing anxiously in the yard, hurried over to greet his mother, the Empress Dowager and the Empress' sister-in-law.
Maids and old women hurried in and out, all with happy faces. On normal days, Ning Xinyuan only had a few maids, but today, some experienced old women were called over to serve.
The two most famous midwives in the capital were invited, but the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor was still worried and sat in the yard personally to take charge, so as to be able to use golden needles to provide first aid in case of emergency.
The Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Zhaoning were welcomed into the main hall. Madam Luo had already been brought in. When she heard her daughter's groans of labor pains in the inner room, her eyes were red with heartache and she had to hold back her tears.
After paying her respects to the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Zhaoning, Madam Luo was so nervous, worried, and distressed that she didn't bother to say any polite words. She sat at the table, clutching the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, and silently followed the painful groans of her daughter in the inner room and exerted force in her heart.
The Empress Dowager, whose face had been beaming with joy upon hearing that her daughter-in-law was about to give birth, clenched her handkerchief nervously when she heard the noises coming from the inner room, and pressed hard along with the rhythmic groans of pain with heartache.
"The ten fingers are open, Princess, push harder!" the midwife instructed with experience.
Luo Li's face turned pale with pain, and her shirt was soaked with sweat. She grabbed the bed sheet with her hands, concentrating all her strength, and couldn't help but cry out in pain, "Ah!..."
Ruhua and Siyu were helping on the side, tears of heartache in their eyes. From childhood to adulthood, the young lady had never suffered such suffering!
When Zhao Defang in the yard heard the cry of pain, his heart trembled and he was about to rush into the house, but was stopped by Lord Luo.
"Your Highness, you can't go in. Men can't go in when a woman is giving birth."
Zhao Defang retracted his steps and paced anxiously in the yard again.
"Ah!..." Then another more painful sound came.
Zhao Defang couldn't control himself any longer, "Li'er, can I go in and watch you?"
The two midwives in the room shouted hurriedly, "You can't let the prince in. There are rules. Men can't enter the delivery room. Otherwise, they will be contaminated with filth and ruin their fortunes."
[Fuck! What kind of broken rule is this? When a woman is giving birth, she is risking her life and going through such unbearable pain, but the culprit man cannot enter the delivery room to accompany her, for fear of being contaminated by filth and ruining her fortune. Who made this rule? ]
Luo Li cursed in her heart and shouted, "Zhao Defang! Come in!..."
Upon hearing this, Regent Zhao Defang lifted his feet and used his lightness skills to float into the room. He rushed to the delivery bed, squatted down, and held the princess' hand tightly.
"Your Highness, men cannot enter the delivery room. It will bring them contamination and ruin their luck!" The midwife was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead.
Regent Zhao Defang held the princess's hand, his eyes filled with tears of heartache, "I am not afraid of losing my luck. I want to stay with the princess and have a baby together."
Luo Li chuckled and the pain seemed to be relieved a lot. Her exhausted body also had strength.
: "Okay! Zhao Defang, let's have a baby together."
Alas! ... The two midwives shook their heads in amusement and helplessness. How can a man give birth to a child with a woman? Your Majesty, do you know how to do it?
Maybe it was the blessing of the power of love, or maybe it was because the baby in her belly was afraid that her father would spank her if she didn't work hard, Luo Li used all her strength and pushed hard...
"Wow..." The loud cry of a baby made everyone in the house and the yard burst into tears of joy.
"It's born!" Mrs. Luo couldn't help but shouted in surprise with tears streaming down her face.
"Congratulations! Your Majesty, it's a baby." A midwife announced the good news with a smile on her face while holding a baby.
Regent Zhao Defang, however, used a handkerchief to wipe the princess' sweat, "Li'er, you've worked so hard!"
Luo Li collapsed on the delivery bed exhausted, with a smile on her lips, "If you don't raise a child, you don't know how hard it is for a mother! Bring the brat over here and let me see it."
The midwife smiled and handed the child wrapped in a quilt to the princess. "Princess, look, when the little prince grows up, he will definitely be a handsome man of unparalleled beauty."
The baby announced his arrival into the world with a loud cry when he was born. At this moment, his eyes were closed, his forehead was full, his nose was straight, his wet hair was stuck to the top of his head, and his little mouth was moving as if looking for food.
Luo Li reached out and touched the baby's face. It was a wonderful feeling. Was this the baby who had been in my belly for more than nine months? My son? There was one more blood relationship in this world.
Luo Li's eyes were so soft that they could turn into a pool of spring water. "Baby, be good! Mother will love you well."
The baby opened his eyes, looked at his mother, and his little mouth moved.
Zhao Defang carefully took his son in his arms, looked at him and said, "My dear boy, when you grow up, join your father in protecting and loving your mother."
The child was carried out by the midwife. Luo Li was exhausted and drowsy. Zhao Defang held her hand gently and squatted beside the bed, looking at her motionlessly.
The Empress Dowager held her grandson in her arms and smiled from ear to ear, "Madam Luo, look, my precious grandson's forehead, eyebrows, nose and mouth are exactly the same as his father's. He will be a handsome man when he grows up."
Madam Luo felt something was a little different: "The eyes and mouth are like Li'er, exactly the same as when I gave birth to her. A man with a girl's appearance is a blessing, and he will be handsome and beautiful when he grows up."
The Grand Empress Dowager took another close look at her grandson. There was no way she could argue with this. Li'er was born to Madam Luo herself, and Zhao Defang was not hers. Hadn't she seen what he looked like when he was just born?
When it was Lord Luo Jiluo's turn to hold his grandson, he was so fond of him that he kept praising the boy for his good looks and said he would become a great man in the future.
The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor circled Lord Luo three times, and finally couldn't help but said, "Lord Luo, have you hugged enough? It's time for me, the big brother, to hug the little brother, right?
Looking at the big brother with gray hair and beard who was scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously, Li'er was naughty and made a fuss about this generation, so Luo Ji smiled and handed the child to the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor.
Ghost Hand Poison Doctor carefully took the child, his beautiful eyes squeezed together, "Little brother, we are close relatives. I am your mother's disciple, and you are my master's son. In the future, we will be as close as possible. Ghost Hand Big Brother will teach you all his skills."
