there holding you back”"Revenge" Si Tu Lin sneered, "Whether or not to seek revenge doesn't matter. Huang Dao Cun was born to be used for sorcery rituals. Do you know how much evil energy I've absorbe..."Little princess, come down quickly~"

"Come down, please~~~"

My scalp was tingling with fear, you guys! Even the Great Witch King wouldn't be this nervous, right

Mu Wanchen was practically a doormat for me now. He was about to take a shower, and I said I wanted to go up on the rooftop, so he took me there himself and had Bai Ni guard me.

Being so accommodating and lenient, I feel like I'm floating.

However, the people who saw me scaling the roof below were about to cry, one after another sighing and begging me to come down quickly.

Humph, I was hugging Bai Ni's neck!

Not even if the house collapsed, would I be harmed in the slightest, right

An old woman ran to the outside of the crowd, as if she wanted to speak to me, but she was too shy to shout. She was blocked by the crowd on the outside and looked at me awkwardly, opening her mouth repeatedly but not knowing what to say.

I was afraid the people below would jostle me, so I quickly said to them, "Hold on, don't move!"

"Huh Are you going to jump down We'll catch you, we'll catch you!" The people below were crowding at my feet, ready to act as padding.

I glared at them. As a pregnant woman, how could I possibly jump out of a building Are they crazy! If I was going down, I'd be holding Bai Ni's neck and sliding down the slide.

"Everybody stay still, and be quiet... That old lady, is there something you need from me" I nodded towards the elderly woman at the back of the crowd.

Everyone turned to look at her, and the old woman blushed immediately.

He looked like an honest man, and I felt a little more goodwill towards him. I asked: "Sir, you're an elder, you shouldn't be crowded with these young people. They might accidentally bump into you."

“Yes… the Princess said…” The old woman nodded and bowed to me.

The people here still behave with the etiquette of hundreds of years ago. Women don't have bound feet, but their demeanor is very formal.

An elderly person bowed to me, and I was standing on the roof like a hill king. It made me feel a little awkward.

I hugged Bai Ni's neck tightly, and she brought me down from the rooftop. I walked around the house and stood before the old woman, asking, "Is there something you need me for"

The old woman's face was etched with the marks of wind and sun. She blushed and spoke in a soft, embarrassed voice: " … Logically speaking, I shouldn't bother the young princess again, but…but…"

Um Is there something you need from me

Seeing the elderly person so helpless, my heart ached for them. I quickly said, "If there's anything you need, please tell me. Don't feel embarrassed. If I can help, I will. If I can't, please find someone else as soon as possible and don't delay matters."

"Yes... It's me... I have... a daughter-in-law..."

"Got a daughter-in-law I'm speechless. What would my daughter-in-law want with me"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty please listen to me… My daughter-in-law, she seems about to give birth, but the midwife just checked and said that it's over, this delivery will most likely be difficult, scaring my whole family…"

The old woman cried in distress.

I understand that. For ordinary families, having a child is a major event. But within the monastic order, these children are even more precious than ginseng dolls.

This small tribe's ability to have a child is truly a momentous occasion. I'd guess this old woman is the chieftain's wife, and her daughter-in-law is surely the one carrying the hopes of the entire family

"The midwife said... such a child is unlikely to be born, and it's feared there will be two deaths instead of one. The old woman was so frightened that she fainted. After my husband pinched her awake, he said, taking advantage of the fact that you are here, let's ask you for help... You, you could go take a look, couldn't you" The old woman looked at me with anticipation.

This... you think I'm Doraemon

While I was saying "Okay, okay," my mind was racing with plans.

If it's just a breech birth caused by an ordinary malposition, I'll immediately send the person out and contact Big Boss Lin Yanhuan for help. We'll take them to the nearest hospital. Right now, as long as it's a regular hospital, a cesarean section shouldn't be a problem. This isn't something that's hopeless.

But when I entered the room where the pregnant woman was, I was dumbfounded —

Everyone was in excruciating pain, nearly fainting. Because of the lack of nutrition recently, the pregnant woman's stamina couldn't keep up, her lips were pale, she was sweating profusely, and her eyes were almost rolling out of their sockets.

This look, don't say it's being sent out, wait another moment, not to mention giving birth, the pregnant woman probably wouldn't be able to breathe in one breath!

"You guys—" I wanted to shout, "How come you're not rushing me to the hospital yet!"

But before I could speak, I realized the mindset and environment here.

Where are there any hospitals

Before, wasn't that how women gave birth Just staying at home and leaving everything to fate.

Of course, it also depends on the skill of the midwife.

There was a middle-aged woman with streaks of silver in her hair. Sweat beaded on her forehead, more than a pregnant woman's. She kept pressing her fingers on the center of the pregnant woman's forehead: "Wake up! You can't lose your energy! If you run out of breath, the baby will too!"

I haven't studied obstetrics and gynecology!

And I, myself, am just a half-baked individual. My studies are not profound, and my family background is also unremarkable.

These pregnancy and childbirth conditions, I just recently reluctantly flipped through my phone and looked at some books, barely understanding anything.

However, after all these years of exposure, when I encounter a patient, I can still quickly calm down. I said to the elderly woman wiping her tears, "Calm down, calm down, let me think of a way. Just tell me, and I'll order some young men to wait outside with stretchers, ready to take them out at any time... Then prepare hot water, blankets... Do you have these"

"Yes, yes, alright." The old woman nodded in agreement.

Actually, this pregnant woman's condition probably means she can't be transferred. She can only give birth here.

Her belly was very prominent, with thin fat deposits. This was a stark contrast to the plump and white pregnant women we see in the outside world. Her energy and vitality were noticeably lower.

I quickly rolled up my sleeves and washed my hands in the basin. I reached out and touched her belly, wow, it's so hard!

It must have been intense contractions, she was in so much pain her hands and feet were twitching.

How terrifying... Is childbirth like this

"Hey, Granny Midwife, what's wrong with her" I reached out and touched the pregnant woman's calf, pulling a needle out of my little handbag.

These needles have not been used for “hundreds of years”.

"What else could possibly go wrong I just pressed down, and the baby's head isn't aligned right! It hurts so much already, before labor even started, I might faint! This can't be good! Definitely going to be a difficult birth!"

Haven't you started giving birth yet

"There's still hope!" I blurted out.

Thump, thump, two muffled sounds rang out at the door. I turned around and saw two men kneeling before me. They must be the pregnant woman's father-in-law and husband.

"Your Highness, Your Great Kindness and Virtue! Please save my family!"

"Get out, get out! Help me heat water and do chores. Having children You're useless! You should be serving women, if you have the ability, go give birth yourselves!" I waved my hand irritably to shoo them away.

This simple temporary housing unit was originally crowded with many people. At this time, because the pregnant woman was about to give birth, everyone held their bedding and moved away, clearing out this room for her to give birth.

The midwife saw me pull out the silver needle and her face turned pale with fright: “Your Highness! What are you doing! It’s taboo for a woman in labor to see needles!”s is a long and meticulous task, and it cannot be entrusted to others. The efforts of others would be like patching something up haphazardly – it wouldn't hold for long.Therefore, the Heavenly Emperor...
