Chương 15: Ninth Grade

Seeing this, Zhao Shuan also did not know how to comfort him. He could only stand at the side, firmly wrap an arm around Jiang Huanyu's shoulders, and repeatedly say, "It will be fine," and "Don't worry."

"Yufen, push harder!"

"I can see the head!"

"Yufen!?"

"Yufen!" The two men outside the room waited in torment. Wang Ying's cry of alarm from inside made Jiang Huanyu's heart nearly leap into his throat.

"Aunt, Yufen fainted!" Hearing this, Jiang Huanyu could no longer care about anything else and immediately rushed into the room.

"Wife!"

"Wife!" On the bed, Hu Yufen's eyes were tightly closed, her face pale, and her whole body was already soaked with sweat. No matter how he called to her, there was no response.

"Yufen…" Jiang Huanyu tightly held her hand, and tears could not help flowing from his eyes. At the side, Madam Sun and Wang Ying also did not know what to do. Hu Yufen had fallen into a coma, and the child still had not shown its head. They were also powerless. Madam Sun's hands were covered in blood, and her voice choked as she said, "The baby is stuck. Before long, it will… it will suffocate…" After Wang Ying heard this, her face instantly turned pale.

"Aunt, then what should we do now?" Madam Sun also looked anxious, thinking of a way. After Jiang Huanyu heard this, his heart twisted even more painfully. He had thought of many possibilities, but he had never imagined this result. Judging from the current situation, the child would be lost, and his wife's life would most likely be difficult to preserve too.

"Yufen…"

"Wake up…" He called out with a choked voice, but received no response.

"Yingzi, quickly have A-Shuan invite your Uncle Sun over."

"The situation is urgent right now. If we use some medicine to replenish qi and blood, we may at least be able to save one, whether adult or child." Medicine to replenish qi and blood? Madam Sun's words suddenly made Jiang Huanyu, who was trapped in grief, think of something. He hurriedly released his wife's hand, went to the wooden cabinet at the side, took out a cloth handkerchief, and took out the last remaining bit of the hundred-year-old Blood Toad's shed skin.

"Aunt, this is Blood Toad shed skin. Can it save Yufen and the child?" Madam Sun looked at the thumb-sized Blood Toad shed skin and frowned.

"The old man once said that Blood Toad shed skin strengthens the foundation, nourishes the origin, generates essence, and replenishes blood. Yufen is like this because she gave birth to two children in succession and exhausted all her strength."

"It can be tried." As Sun Fuchun's wife, Madam Sun had been influenced by him and also understood many things about medicinal principles. This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience. Hearing her say this, Jiang Huanyu hurriedly came forward, gently pried open Hu Yufen's mouth, and placed the remaining Blood Toad shed skin inside. As the Blood Toad shed skin slowly melted, a trace of rosiness gradually appeared on Hu Yufen's face.

"It has an effect!"

"Aunt, it has an effect!" Seeing this, Wang Ying could not help crying out in surprise. Jiang Huanyu also hurriedly knelt beside the bed and tightly held Hu Yufen's hand.

"Wife?"

"Wake up." Along with his calls, and the cries of the daughter who had just been born beside them, Hu Yufen's fingers suddenly trembled.

"Hus… husband."

"She's awake!"

"She's awake!" Madam Sun and Wang Ying hurriedly came forward.

"Yufen, quick!"

"Use some strength, or the child will suffocate." Hearing Madam Sun's words, Hu Yufen could no longer care about anything else. A strength born from maternal love made her squeeze out all the strength in her body!

"Ah—" A hoarse roar sounded, and her hand also clutched Jiang Huanyu's arm tightly!

"It's out!"

"It's out!"

"Yingzi, help!" With the help of Madam Sun and Wang Ying, the second child was finally pulled out! The two hurriedly cleaned out the amniotic fluid from the child's mouth and nose. Then they lifted the child by the feet and slapped hard for a while. After more than ten slaps, the child, who had not moved at all, finally let out a hoarse cry. At this moment, the people in the room finally let out a great breath of relief.

After placing the child beside Hu Yufen, Madam Sun and Wang Ying both collapsed weakly to sit on the ground. Jiang Huanyu looked with heartache at his wife, whose eyes were tightly closed. Discovering that her breathing was still steady, he did not have time to worry and busily helped Madam Sun and Wang Ying sit to the side. Afterward, he brought hot water and helped wipe the bloodstains from Hu Yufen's body. When things were mostly cleaned up, Zhao Shuan also arrived with Sun Fuchun.

"This old woman will step out for a moment." Hearing the movement, Madam Sun shakily stood up and went outside. Jiang Huanyu and Wang Ying also followed her out.

"How is it?" Sun Fuchun asked with a solemn expression. As a physician, he knew very well how dangerous giving birth to twins was. Some families with the means would prepare blood ginseng and other great tonics nearby when childbirth was approaching, precisely because they feared that the woman giving birth would run out of strength and faint halfway through. And that was only under the condition of giving birth to one child.

When he heard Zhao Shuan say Jiang Huanyu's wife was carrying twins, Sun Fuchun immediately brought over a section of blood ginseng he had treasured.

"Mother and children are safe. It was all thanks to A-Huanyu having a piece of Blood Toad shed skin," Madam Sun said with a smile. As a midwife, she had delivered so many children and had also seen the tragic scene of both mother and child dying many times. This time, being able to successfully protect the mother and two children made her very relieved.

"Blood Toad shed skin?" Sun Fuchun glanced at Jiang Huanyu. With his understanding of medicinal principles, he instantly understood that Blood Toad shed skin capable of taking effect quickly had to be at least hundred-year grade. For Jiang Huanyu to obtain a piece of hundred-year-old Blood Toad shed skin was truly good luck.

"As long as they are safe, that is good. Safe is good."

"A-Huanyu, congratulations." After learning that both mother and children were safe, Zhao Shuan quickly cupped his hands. Jiang Huanyu returned the salute, then turned and went into the room. He found a piece of red cloth and tore it into two pieces. From the wooden box under the bed, he took out four taels of silver and wrapped them separately. Coming into the courtyard, he handed the silver to Madam Sun and Wang Ying respectively.

"Today, it was all thanks to Aunt and Sister-in-law. This is celebration money." Seeing this, Wang Ying originally wanted to refuse, but Madam Sun smiled and said, "This is celebration money. It must be accepted. It can bring good fortune." Jiang Huanyu also echoed her and urged Wang Ying to accept it. Only then did Wang Ying smile and accept the silver.

"Uncle Sun, do you think you should prescribe some medicine to replenish Yufen's vitality?" After giving the celebration money, he was still rather worried about his wife's body. Giving birth to one child would damage vitality. Giving birth to two at once would definitely greatly injure her vital energy. Sun Fuchun nodded slightly.

"After returning, this old man will prescribe some medicine. When you are no longer busy, come get it." After the few chatted for a while, the Sun couple returned first. Wang Ying washed the blood from her hands, told Zhao Shuan to return home first, and stayed behind to help look after Hu Yufen. In the evening, Zhao Shuan helped bring Jiang Wenyan back from Lu Zhiyuan's house.

When the little fellow returned home and heard that his mother had given birth to a younger brother and younger sister for him, he was extremely happy. On the bed, Hu Yufen had already awakened. Seeing Jiang Wenyan lying at the side, carefully poking his younger brother's and younger sister's cheeks with his little hand, she could not help smiling.

"Anu, don't bother your younger brother and younger sister." The little fellow stood up, turned his head to look at Jiang Huanyu, and said, "Father, do younger brother and younger sister have names?" Jiang Huanyu's expression froze. Only then did he remember that he still had not named the two little fellows.

"Your mother was able to safely give birth to your younger brother and younger sister…"

"Your younger sister will be called Jiang Wenping from now on, and your younger brother will be called Jiang wenchen, taking the meaning of peace and safety."

"Wife, what do you think?" On the bed, Hu Yufen smiled faintly.

"I will listen to Husband." After the names were decided, Jiang Huanyu was thinking about what good food he should make later to nourish his wife's body, but suddenly, a slight movement came from his sea of consciousness. Ding!
