Chapter 3254 Shen Tianyu 654

At this moment, Jing Hong was in the next delivery room, touching Bai Chenxue's belly and scolding Jing Bai: "Jing Bai, Jing Bai, man proposes, God disposes. Your father planned everything for you, timing your pregnancy and birth. To ensure you and Xianxian could be a couple, your father even sent his own grandfather to Shen Tianyu's house, all to help you from the inside out, but you're so disappointing. Now that Xianxian is born, even if you were to jump out right now, you'd be younger than her. If Xianxian doesn't like relationships with older women when she grows up, your father will have truly wasted his time."

Bai Chenxue found his worried expression amusing.

There's no point in being anxious.

She shows no signs of labor yet; she has no abdominal pain and her water hasn't broken.

She reached out and touched Jing Hong's stiff, thick hair, saying, "Second Brother, some things can't be forced. Don't be anxious."

Jing Hong disagreed, "I had to force you to be with me. If I hadn't forced you, we wouldn't be where we are today."

Bai Chenxue was speechless.

Master Mao was also extremely anxious at this moment.

He stood between the two delivery rooms, peeking into Yuan Jinzhi's delivery room one moment and then glancing at Bai Chenxue's delivery room the next.

Finally, he lost his patience, pushed open the door, and said to Bai Chenxue, "I'll also urge Xiao Jingbai a bit. Jing Hong is so impatient, why is Jing Bai so slow?"

Seeing that he had relented, Bai Chenxue asked, "Grandpa, should we call a doctor to give me an oxytocin injection?"

Master Mao waved his hand, "Even a fetus has a spirit, so I'll just recite a few words to Jing Bai."

Jing Hong stood up and made way for him.

Master Mao walked to the bedside, took a deep breath, gathered his strength, put his hands on his hips, and exclaimed with great force.

Bai Chenxue felt that the shout was like thunder in her ears, as if she had been enlightened, and her mind became clearer.

Master Mao pointed at her lower abdomen and said, "You brat, Xianxian has already been born. How long are you going to dawdle? I can give up anything, but not this. If you don't give birth soon, I'm packing my bags and going back to Maoshan tomorrow!"

Jing's mother said, "Dad, don't worry. It's already too late anyway, so a few days later is fine."

Master Mao waved his hand, "No, it would be best if he were born today. Today is an auspicious day, and he and Xianxian would be born on the same day, month, and year."

He took out a gourd that had been handled and polished until it developed a patina from the cloth bag he was carrying.

Unscrew the stopper and pour out three dark, unidentifiable pills.

He handed the pill to Bai Chenxue and said, "Xiaoxue, take this and try it."

The nurse who knocked and entered happened to see this scene. She was shocked and exclaimed, "Master Daoist, I know you Daoists are very capable, but this is a hospital. Can we try to trust medicine as much as possible? If you really want to feed her these pills, we should have them tested first. Otherwise, who will be responsible if something goes wrong with the mother?"

Master Mao waved his hand and said, "No need for testing, I'll take care of it."

"Then we need to sign a contract stating that the hospital will not be responsible for any accidents."

Master Mao stuffed the gourd into his robes. "Alright, you go and prepare. I'll sign."

After signing the contract, Bai Chenxue took the pill.

She took quite a few of these dark pills during her pregnancy, but the ones she ate today tasted the best. She didn't know what had been added to them; they were sweet and sour.

It feels soothing in the stomach, and I quickly felt warm all over.

The lower abdomen feels especially warm.

About an hour later, she began to feel a dull ache in her stomach.

Each subsequent time the pain was a little more intense.

This is labor pains.

The doctor came in and examined the patient, and was also surprised.

It is true that medicine and Taoism share the same origin, but because Taoist priests live deep in the mountains, ordinary people rarely come into contact with those who are truly skilled, and few people have witnessed their abilities.

Like the nurse, he asked Master Mao about testing the elixirs.

This time, it wasn't to evade responsibility, but purely out of curiosity about the ingredients of the elixir.

He was rejected by Master Mao again.

The tests were useless; those rare medicinal herbs grow on cliffs deep in the mountains and cannot be mass-produced.

Western medicines can be produced as substitutes, but their effects are not as good. Just like artificially cultivated ginseng, no matter how well it is grown, it can never achieve the same effect as wild ginseng. Similarly, even though the ingredients of Niuhuang Wan (a traditional Chinese medicine) have been changed from rhinoceros horn to concentrated water buffalo horn powder, the ingredients are similar but the effects are vastly different.

Jing Hong hugged Bai Chenxue and offered her his hand, saying, "If your stomach hurts, pinch my hand to relieve the pain."

Bai Chenxue pushed his hand away, "Take a towel, I'll hold it."

Jing Hong slipped the back of his hand under her fingers, saying, "Pinch my hand, it feels good."

Bai Chenxue glared at him reproachfully.

She pinched his hand, feeling sorry for him.

She pushed him away again.

Jing Hong then shoved his hand over.

Bai Chenxue said, "The baby is about to be born, why are you still playing the victim? You're just making things difficult for yourself."

Jing's mother couldn't stand it anymore and exposed Jing Hong's little scheme: "He just wants to hear you say that you feel sorry for him. This kid has been cunning since he was a child, more so than his older brother and younger sister. Whatever he wants, he'll always get it through a roundabout way."

Bai Chenxue could only say to Jing Hong, "I feel sorry for you. Be good, I won't pinch your hand, I'll pinch the towel instead."

Jing Hong hugged her tightly, oblivious to everyone else, and nuzzled his face against hers. "Xuexue, I feel even more sorry for you. It's all Jing Bai's fault for making you suffer so much. Let's only have Jing Bai, and not Jing Muxue."

Bai Chenxue felt embarrassed.

My mother-in-law and grandfather are both here.

Her grandfather, Bai Hanzhu, and her brother, Bai Chenshu, also came from Suzhou, along with doctors and nurses.

With so many people standing guard nearby, how did he manage to ignore them?

Master Mao couldn't stand it anymore.

He coughed and said, "Judging from the situation, Jing Bai will definitely be born today. I'm going to go next door to check on Xian Xian."

He turned and left.

It's already time to visit Xianxian.

The once bustling corridor was now empty; some people had already left after their visits.

Some women stayed in the delivery room and refused to leave.

Master Mao raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Upon entering the room, one immediately spotted the tiny baby in Dugu Cheng's arms.

Those eyes were dark, big, and bright.

Master Mao exclaimed, "Indeed, she is a fairy! As expected..."

He stopped talking.

The secret cannot be revealed.

Master Mao strode up to Dugu Cheng and stretched out his hand, "Dugu, quick, let me hug Xianxian!"

Dugu Cheng did not let go.

He has mysophobia.

When Shen Tianyu was a child, he took great care of him. Now he takes even better care of Xianxian. His clothes were newly changed today. Before coming to the hospital, he took a bath, changed clothes, washed his hair, brushed his teeth and rinsed his mouth. Before entering the delivery room, he washed his hands again and again and disinfected his whole body before coming in. Even the people who accompany children in labor are not as meticulous as him.

He thought Mao Junzhen was slovenly.

Master Mao was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Dugu, let me hold the child."

Dugu Cheng said, "Xianxian is shy."

Shen Tianyu's beautiful thin lips curved slightly.

Even a master who never lies can lie.

Why is Xianxian afraid of strangers?

Dozens of people came in to visit, but Xianxian's expression was calmer than anyone else's. Her dark, large eyes scrutinized all living beings like God.
