Chapter 408: Chapter 408: Jiang Hong Gives Birth

If it weren’t for the support of Xiyang Food Company, and if the villagers had to pay for it themselves, just the cost of the plastic film for the greenhouse would be enough to empty many people’s life savings.

"Alright, Uncle got it. Also, County Magistrate Bai let the town mayor bring a message, asking if you could go to the county government when you have time."

"Mhm, okay," Lin Chuxia directly responded.

After everything was explained, Qin Shusen tested the waters and asked Lin Chuxia if she would be coming back to the village soon.

For some reason, although everything was arranged and they only needed to follow Lin’s plan, having Lin there to oversee it just felt different.

Qin Shusen had never felt this way before.

The other person was only a few years older than his daughter but he never dared to underestimate her.

Knowing that Lin Chuxia would be returning to the village soon, he was completely at ease.

The village chief was at a loss on the phone, but once he hung up, he was overjoyed and even hummed a little tune, leaving the small office clerk beside him completely baffled.

.........

On the day of February 2nd, Lin Chuxia planned to return to Qin Family Village for a visit.

Qin Yang still had work to do and couldn’t accompany her back.

Lin Chuxia didn’t insist, she told him to take care of himself as she planned to stay a few more days at home this time.

The village chief had called earlier to mention that it was time to start sowing the first batch of seeds.

These seeds were all brought over by the technicians from the Agricultural Research Institute, and were well-suited for planting in vegetable greenhouses.

This was also their new research project, coincidentally being promoted as a pilot in Qin Family Village.

Lin Chuxia was driving out of the family quarters when she spotted Sister-in-law Feng hurriedly coming out of an alley.

And that alley was where Li Wei’s house was located.

Lin Chuxia thought of something, stopped the car at the side of the road, and greeted Sister-in-law Feng, "Sister, where are you off to?"

Sister-in-law Feng didn’t expect to run into Lin Chuxia, and even more so that Lin would take the initiative to greet her, smiling she pointed in the direction of the school, "The school’s about to finish for the day, I’m going to pick up the kids."

"Sister, did you just come from Li Wei’s house?" Lin Chuxia asked again.

"Yes, I had a talk with Li Wei’s family, and I won’t keep you, I need to go to pick up the children."

After saying this, Sister-in-law Feng hurried off.

The more Lin Chuxia thought about it, the more she felt something was off; Sister-in-law Feng’s expression coming out from the alley wasn’t quite right.

Still uneasy, Lin Chuxia decided to lock the car and head over to Li Wei’s house.

Just as she entered the courtyard, she heard Jiang Hong’s moaning from inside the house.

She hurried over and was about to push the door open when Jiang Hong opened it from inside first.

She was supporting her waist with one hand and the door with the other, her face pained, and her trouser leg was already soaked.

"Jiang Hong, are you about to give birth?"

Lin Chuxia’s face changed dramatically, broken waters couldn’t be delayed.

Jiang Hong nodded, "Chuxia, can you go call Li Wei to come back? I’m about to have the baby."

"Call Li Wei? I’m taking you to the hospital first."

Jiang Hong clutched her belly, wincing in pain, "I’m in too much pain to walk."

Without another word, Lin Chuxia picked her up.

Jiang Hong was startled and forgot to let go of the door she was holding.

Lin Chuxia tried to turn around to leave but couldn’t move for a moment, she glanced at her hand, "Let go, I’m taking you to the hospital first, and we’ll call Li Wei on the way."

It was then that Jiang Hong came back to her senses and hurriedly released her hand.

It wasn’t that she was fixated on calling Li Wei; she simply hadn’t expected Lin Chuxia, who was thin and frail, to have so much strength.

Lin Chuxia didn’t care about what Jiang Hong was thinking, she put her in the car first, "Where have you put the things for childbirth?"

"It’s in the cabinet next to the bed, the one you saw last time."

Lin Chuxia went back into the room and got her the things she needed.

When she came out, she ran into the sister-in-law from next door, who probably heard the commotion and came over to check on the situation.

Lin Chuxia asked the sister-in-law to let Li Wei know that his wife was about to give birth, and then she drove straight to the hospital.

On the way, she passed by Qin Yang’s workplace gate and asked the gatekeeper to notify Li Wei that his wife was giving birth and to find him at the hospital.

By the time Lin Chuxia took Jiang Hong to the hospital and got her into the delivery room, Li Wei had only just arrived in a rush.

It was the dead of winter, and he was sweating profusely, showing how hurriedly he had come.

"Little sister-in-law, how’s Jiang Hong doing? How... how is it that she’s giving birth today? It’s still half a month early."

He was extremely anxious, and if not for the nurse stopping him, he almost wanted to push open the delivery room door to check on her.

"I don’t know what’s going on either. When I got to your house, Jiang Hong’s water had already broken."

On the way, Jiang Hong was enduring the pain, and all Lin Chuxia could do was to keep comforting her.

Suddenly, a suppressed moan from Jiang Hong came from inside the delivery room. Li Wei immediately forgot about Lin Chuxia and leaned against the delivery room door, shouting, "Jiang Hong, Jiang Hong, don’t be afraid, I’m right outside..."

Before he could finish, the door to the delivery room suddenly opened, and a female doctor with a cold expression said, "What are you yelling for? Don’t you know this is a hospital?"

"My wife, my wife is in there."

Li Wei tiptoed to look inside, but the female doctor blocked him firmly, "Stop looking; there are two women giving birth in there. Family members, behave. This is a hospital, not your home’s kang (heated bed)."

With a "bang," the door closed again.

Had Li Wei not dodged quickly, his face would have been squarely hit.

Footsteps were heard again, as Qin Yang also arrived.

He passed by Li Wei and came directly to Lin Chuxia’s side, "Is everything alright?"

"What could be wrong with me? It’s Jiang Hong who’s inside giving birth. I just happened to be there, so I rushed her to the hospital. Li Wei is the nervous one. Perhaps you should go and comfort him?"

Only then did Qin Yang glance at Li Wei, "It’s fine."

At that moment, another painful cry from a woman came from the delivery room; everyone could tell it was Jiang Hong’s voice.

Lin Chuxia instinctively grasped Qin Yang’s arm, her little face turning a shade paler.

She had never given birth, but she knew the pain of childbirth, which is like having ten ribs break at the same time, unbearable for ordinary people.

At this time, with medical conditions being poor and no pain relief measures, one could only endure the pain by sheer willpower.

Li Wei was now even more flustered, and if it weren’t for the fear of affecting the doctors’ work, he really wanted to rush in to see for himself.

Qin Yang noticed the change in Lin Chuxia and took hold of her hand in response, "Don’t worry, it will be all safe."

Lin Chuxia nodded her head.

Jiang Hong was giving birth inside, and she couldn’t rest easy until she saw the outcome, so she simply joined Qin Yang in accompanying Li Wei to wait outside.

Fortunately, it wasn’t a long wait. Accompanied by a suppressed scream from Jiang Hong, the loud cries of a baby echoed in the delivery room.

"She’s given birth!" Lin Chuxia suddenly stood up.

Li Wei also spun around happily at the doorway, "It’s born, it’s born..."

After a little while, a nurse came out with a newborn baby, "Family member of Jiang Hong."

Li Wei hurried forward, "Here, I’m here."

"Congratulations, it’s a boy, both mother and child are safe."

Li Wei took the baby, and without looking twice, he quickly asked the nurse as she was about to re-enter the delivery room, "When will my wife come out?"

"She’ll be out in a little while."

"Ah! Okay... good..."

Li Wei held the baby, grinning foolishly, as if he was holding a fragile treasure.
