Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 37

Premature Birth
Chi Xinru took a deep breath to calm down and asked, “Xin Xin, do you know how to deliver a baby?”

Hearing this question, Duan Yixin nodded and said, “I know. What’s wrong? Is someone going to give birth now?”

Seeing her calm expression, Chi Xinru held her hands and said, “There is an elder sister near my home. Her husband was killed when the bandits attacked our village a few days ago. Due to shock and sadness, she was going to give birth prematurely and had been in pain since last night. Because there were still two months before the due date, she hadn’t found a midwife yet. Can you help her deliver the baby?”

Duan Yixin thought for a moment and said, “Wait for me. I go get my medicine box.”

After saying that, she quickly returned to her bedroom. Before leaving, she took some emergency medicines from the warehouse and put them in the medicine box. After making sure that she had already packed all the basic items and medicines, Duan Yixin closed the medicine box.

After leaving the bedroom, she thought of the pot of medicinal porridge and hurried to the kitchen. After putting the pot of medicinal porridge into the warehouse, she went to the front yard.

Seeing her coming with the medicine box, Chi Xinru said, “Let’s go.”

When the two left Duan Yixin’s house, the sky just started to change color. Duan Yixin and Chi Xinru arrived twenty minutes later.

Before they could take a breath, Madam Chi saw them coming. She quickly pulled Duan Yixin and said anxiously, “Xin Xin, hurry up! Wen Niang can’t hold on anymore!”

Seeing Madam Chi rushing in with Duan Yixin and Chi Xinru, the other women took a step aside. Looking at the bed that was soaked in blood, Duan Yixin’s face became serious.

She put down the medicine box and said, “Please prepare hot water and clean towels.”

Upon hearing this, the women quickly left the bedroom to boil water, leaving Madam Chi and Chi Xinru to help Duan Yixin.

After all the women left, Duan Yixin opened the medicine box, put on surgical gloves, and bent down to check Lu Hanwen’s bleeding condition. When she saw that the bleeding was severe and the baby was in the wrong position, Duan Yixin took out a small ceramic box from the medicine box.

Opening the lid, she took out a thin slice of thousand-year-old ginseng. She walked up to the weak Lu Hanwen and said, “Open your mouth.”

Lu Hanwen’s consciousness was weakened by blood loss, and her body lost strength due to pain, but she still opened her mouth, according to Duan Yixin’s words.

Putting the thin piece of ginseng under Lu Hanwen’s tongue, Duan Yixin looked at her tearful eyes and said calmly, “Don’t be afraid. I will save you and your child.”

When Lu Hanwen heard this, she nodded weakly and gritted her teeth. Seeing that she had regained a little bit of strength, Duan Yixin gently pressed Lu Hanwen’s belly to check the baby’s position and said, “I’m going to reposition the baby. If you feel pain, please endure it.”

After speaking, Duan Yixin skillfully adjusted the baby’s position. After that, Lu Hanwen suddenly felt contractions coming like a tsunami. She grabbed the sheets and clenched her teeth to endure the pain.

Duan Yixin noticed this and stood at the end of the bed, and then said, “When you feel the contraction, push hard.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Hanwen felt another contraction and pushed with all her strength.

“Ahh!!”

After Lu Hanwen pushed a few times, Duan Yixin saw the baby’s head and said, “You are doing great. I can see the baby’s head now. Gather your strength and keep pushing.”

After hearing this, Lu Hanwen felt that she must endure and give birth to her baby. A second later, she accumulated more strength and pushed the baby out. Outside the bedroom, the women could only hear Lu Hanwen’s screams and Duan Yixin’s calm instructions.

Seeing that Lu Hanwen had exhausted all her strength but the baby was still stuck inside, Duan Yixin took the forceps delivery and assisted Lu Hanwen in delivering the baby. With her help, the baby finally came out of the mother’s belly.

Duan Yixin turned the baby upside down and patted the baby a few times. Soon, the baby started crying.

“Oa~ Oa!”

Hearing the baby’s cry, all the women outside the bedroom breathed a sigh of relief. Inside the bedroom, Duan Yixin looked at Chi Xinru and asked, “Where are the hot water and towels?”

After coming back to her senses, Chi Xinru hurriedly said, “I’ll get it now.”

When Chi Xinru rushed out to get hot water and towels, Duan Yixin cut the umbilical cord and handed the newborn baby to Madam Chi. After that, she went back to check on Lu Hanwen.

She looked at the bleeding that hadn’t stopped, then looked at the unconscious Lu Hanwen, and then took out a surgical kit and several bottles of medicine from the medicine box.

Upon seeing this, Madam Chi turned pale and asked, “Xin Xin, what are you going to do? What happened to Wen Niang?”

Duan Yixin looked at Madam Chi and said, “Wen Niang’s blood loss was too serious. I need to remove the placenta manually and suture the wound to stop the bleeding. Otherwise, she will die from blood loss and complications.”

Hearing her answer, Madam Chi was almost scared to death. How could anyone stitch that place up? If Duan Yixin really sewed it up, what would happen if something happened to Lu Hanwen? Wouldn’t Duan Yixin be caught by Yamen Guards for killing someone?

Not knowing that Madam Chi had written a long and dramatic story about her tragic future inside her head, Duan Yixin looked at Lu Hanwen calmly and found that she had fainted. Time was running out, so Duan Yixin ignored Madam Chi and started emergency surgery.
