Chapter 48 end

When the winter jasmine blooms, Duan Fei's wedding is held as scheduled. It is very simple, but very festive - the bride is wearing a red cheongsam, her hair is tied up in a bun, and her eyes are smiling.The groom wore a suit, but it was probably because he looked pretty good, so he didn't feel awkward, but rather a combination of Chinese and Western.As a temporary guardian, Xu Xin took Guoguo to sit in the room of Xi Niang's relatives, and Du Yibei followed closely beside his wife, never leaving her.Jiang Mingbo also came, and was assigned to the private room where Gu Xiaoying and Guan Tong were. He was dragged by Gu Xiaoying to consult the prenatal precautions within less than a few words with Guan Tong. Jiang Mingbo was introduced as "Avalokitesvara, a handsome unmarried living body giving birth to a child" - so the whole private room became an obstetrics clinic in a short time, full of married women including the bride's cousin and the groom's cousin.

Amid the din of people, Gu Xiaoying shook her head to watch the fun, and asked Guan Tong cheerfully: "Do you think we should set up a table at the door to collect the registration fee?" Guan Tong nodded, and cooperated with the leader to make a final decision: "Well, it's doable." The good-tempered Dr. Jiang took the time to look up from a crowd of women to look at the two people next to him who were calm and gloating, drinking tea and eating snacks, his heart was full of resentment. Maybe it was because she was so happy, Gu Xiaoying felt sick to her stomach after eating half of it, so she tugged on Guan Tong: "I'm going to the bathroom."

Guan Tong was worried about the slippery floor of the hotel bathroom, so he got up and went with Gu Xiaoying, but unexpectedly, Gu Xiaoying rushed out not long after entering the bathroom, grabbed Guan Tong's arm nervously and said: " I'm red!" "What do you mean? It's about to give birth?" Guan Tong was startled. "It can't be so fast... The book says that the baby will be born within 24 to 72 hours after seeing the red," Gu Xiaoying said with a sad face, "but this is not right, there is still more than half a month before the due date."

"Go and sit on the sofa, I'll go find Jiang Mingbo." Guan Tong took Gu Xiaoying to the hotel lobby, turned around and hurried back to the private room, not long after, Jiang Mingbo walked quickly behind Guan Tong. "Any other signs?" Jiang Mingbo asked Gu Xiaoying. "No, it's just red," Gu Xiaoying said silently about her stomach, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't feel tight, and I don't feel anything else." "Go to the hospital," Jiang Mingbo said with a smile to ease the atmosphere while walking out with the two, "Your baby can't wait to come to this world."

"Shouldn't this be considered premature?" Gu Xiaoying asked nervously. "It doesn't count, it's full term at thirty-seven weeks," Jiang Mingbo quickly opened the car door, and watched Guan Tong help Gu Xiaoying to sit in the back seat. Gu Xiaoying smiled, "You still saved me, after a while, I'm going to be asked crazy by three aunts and six wives." "Isn't answering medical questions your forte?" Once Gu Xiaoying relaxed, she started laughing again. "Didn't you realize that it has turned into a blind date?" Jiang Mingbo shook his head and sighed, "Why is it so difficult to be single..."

"Single has the advantages of being single, and being married has the fun of being married." Seeing that Gu Xiaoying was fine, Guan Tong was not nervous, and said while driving, "I seemed to be about the same age as you are now when I got married." "Doctor Jiang, don't worry, your lifelong happiness rests on me," Gu Xiaoying pointed at the sky and swore, "You bring me a baby, and I will return you a wife!" "Is the one you introduced...reliable?" Jiang Mingbo was very skeptical. "What's your name!" Gu Xiaoying stared and patted her belly, "Baby, he suspects your mother is unreliable, so kick him!"

"Then we have to wait," Jiang Mingbo looked at his watch with a smile, "he (she) is still kicking you now, but it won't be long before he (she) can really kick me." It seemed to be in response to Jiang Mingbo's prophecy—it didn't take long at all, and Gu Xiaoying entered the waiting room the next morning. The cheerleaders outside the delivery room were very strong: Guan Liming, Xie Jiarong, Guan Tong, Gu Dad, Gu Mom, Xu Xin, Du Yibei, Duan Fei, Jiang Yueyang... stood in a long row. Needless to say, Gu's father and mother, the girl in my family loves her the most. The anxiety and expectation cannot be described in words. She can only stare at the door of the waiting room, and occasionally stand up and walk to the door of the waiting room to look along the crack of the door. For a while, I walked around anxiously when I couldn't see anything, occasionally talked in a low voice, and then sat down absent-mindedly, and so on.When Xie Jiarong gave birth to Guan Tong, she hired a midwife in her own house, so both she and Guan Liming were unfamiliar with places like the delivery room, so they could only sit on the rest chair a little numbly and stiffly, neither moving nor moving. Speaking, it looks like two sculptures from a distance.

Guan Tong is undoubtedly the most important person here - because he is also responsible for entering the delivery room to accompany the delivery after Gu Xiaoying's bones are almost healed.It was the first time for him to experience this kind of scene. Although he thought that giving birth was just a normal process, but when it was his turn, he felt that the seconds were like years.Especially when he was most nervous, some women in the delivery room had a little problem. When the nurse passed by Guan Tong with a blood bag, he felt that his heart stopped beating immediately - it seemed that he had arrived. At this time, he realized more deeply that giving birth to a child is indeed a matter of life and death, and at this moment, a woman is really gambling with her own life.

As for Duan Fei and Xu Xin, each had their own nervousness: Duan Fei had a cesarean section when she gave birth, and she had never experienced such a long period of suffering, and now she was a little nervous. Jiang Yueyang could see it, and just held her hand behind his back until the The cold palms gradually warmed up; Xu Xin was going to give birth in a few months, so she was a little scared after seeing this scene. Du Yibei was afraid that she would have a psychological disorder, so he had to quietly mobilize her to go home first, but Xu Xin shook her head, with an expression of wanting to persevere to the end, Du Yibei sighed, and stopped persuading her, just thinking that if Gu Xiaoying didn't enter the delivery room after a while, he would fight her The wife drove away... But Gu Xiaoying couldn't see everything outside, she could only hear ghosts crying and howling in the waiting room: Some women couldn't hold on and asked for a caesarean section; Bite your arm hard to relieve the pain.The doctor has seen too much, and he has long been used to the strangeness, and occasionally scolded a few words, "Slow down, save effort, and see how quiet he is." She couldn't even roll her eyes—in fact, she wanted to say that she wanted to howl too, but she bit her lip, her hands were still tightly clutching the railing at the head of the bed, and she basically couldn't spare the energy to howl!

It was a process she never wanted to recall. It was also a long time later, when Gu Xiaoying went to the mother-to-be forum she used to go to and saw those happy announcements, she really admired those mothers who could describe their childbirth experiences in detail—she Gu Xiaoying could do it, At most, it’s just a brief summary of when the uterine contractions started, when the three fingers were opened, when she entered the delivery room, and when she was born... The only time she had the courage to describe it was when the baby was dragged out of her At that moment in the stomach, that kind of indescribable, relief-like "super pleasure"!

It was a super pleasure——At that moment, she only felt that the strength in her whole body suddenly disappeared, and her stomach was suddenly empty, and then she heard a cry of "wow", and the doctor said: "At 2:18 in the afternoon, boy, six Seven taels of catty." At that time, Guan Tong was standing beside Gu Xiaoying, too excited to speak.He just held Gu Xiaoying's hand tightly, watched the doctors work around the child without blinking, and seemed a little nervous and trembling. Gu Xiaoying couldn't count on him, so she could only breathe hard, and said with all her strength, "Give me a look." It just so happened that the midwife cleaned the baby, wrapped it up, and hurriedly reported it to Gu Xiaoying. She brought the baby's face close to the mother's cheek and said, "Kiss mother." But before Gu Xiaoying took a closer look at the child, he hurriedly took him away again? ! Gu Xiaoying looked anxious, turned her head and asked Guan Tong: "Who do you look like?" Guan Tong has not recovered from the excitement, but subconsciously replied: "I can't tell, it's all red..." "Are you stupid? You don't even look carefully at your son!" Gu Xiaoying was anxious. In this way, the baby's first "gift" in this world is that the father has another angle of being scolded by the mother. But Guan Tong will always remember that day. That day, in order to welcome a small life, his wife still gritted her teeth and kept silent when the waiting room was full of ghosts and wolves. Because she had said before that she must maintain her strength, she would rather bite her lips until blood flowed. That day was the first time he entered the delivery room. He held his wife's hand tightly, took deep breaths with her, wiped her sweat, and encouraged her.Although he later realized that the four-hour labor process was considered short, at the time, he felt that every second was so long. He couldn't imagine what kind of pain it was, but it was precisely because he couldn't imagine that he respected all mothers in the world. He didn't tell his wife that the reason why he didn't see the child clearly was because at that moment, his eyes were wet.Although he was looking forward to holding this child in his arms, at that moment, he just wanted to hold the hand of the woman in front of him, be by her side, and wish her well. He remembered that in those days when H1N1 was raging, Gu Xiaoying had told him thousands of times: "Guan Tong, remember, if I get infected with the virus, you must ensure that the child lives." At that time, he answered her jokingly: "Only if the green hills remain, can we not worry about running out of firewood." But now, he just wants to tell her: even if there is no child, you will still be there. As long as we are together. As long as we support each other, we will never leave. Honey, I love you.
