Chapter 36. Dragon Raising Head Day (part1)

Old Mrs. Chen didn't hold any hope of Mrs. Su giving birth to a son. However, Yue Da Fu had some vague expectations: "On the second day of the second month, the dragon raised his head. If she really give birth to a son, won't he have great achievement in the future!"

"You're the abnormal one! She already given birth to seven money-wasters. I don't believe that she can give birth to a baby with a handle this time!" Old Mrs. Chen firmly believed Mrs. Su couldn't give birth to a son on this good day. She couldn't be bothered with west wing's matter.

Doctor Ma and his wife came quickly. Mrs. Lin scalded her hands with hot water and gave the children a soothing look: "Don't worry, your mother will be able to give birth to a little brother safely." Then she pushed the west wing's door and went straight in.

On the other side, Wan Niang was giving birth for the first time. Inexperienced her was already panicking. Her glistening pale face was raised high as she looked at Mrs. Chen who was entrusted by Yue Chang Lu to come in to guard her. She asked: "Eldest Sister-in-law, why is it so noisy outside? Is Second Brother Yue ba, back?"

Sitting on the side, Mrs. Chen was bored tot death. She got up and went out to take a look. Then she came back with a slightly evil smile: "Oh, it's not old Second coming back. Mrs. Su also got into labor. Those girls invited the village doctor over."

Hearing that Mrs. Su had also gone into labor, a trace of hatred flashed in Wan Niang's eyes. What? She had to fight with on this good day too? "It's not Elder, Sister Su's, delivery day yet, no?"

"Who knows? Maybe she find today is a good day and gone into labor in advance!" Enjoying the drama, Mrs. Chen chilled on the side and jollily spoke.

Wan Niang wanted to say something else, but a sudden burst of pain struck her. It made her unable to open her mouth to say anything. She could only grudging grit her teeth and hated Mrs. Su and second branch's daughters even more.

Back to Mrs. Su's side. The situation was in critical condition as this was premature birth. On top of that, Mrs., Su's body was weak and couldn't exert her strength. Mrs. Lin went in to check her condition. She quickly came out and explained Mrs. Su's condition to her old man: "She had given birth before, so the cervix opened fast. However, her body is weak and her strength can't keep up. If this continue on like this, I'm afraid both adult and babies are in danger.”

When they heard that Mrs. Su and the babies might meet with mishap, You Jin sisters' hearts sank. Despite this, they all gritted their teeth and did not dare to cry. All their expectant eyes fell on Doctor Ma.

Dr. Ma twirled his beard and pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "I'll prescribe medicine for her. See if she'll get better after drinking it."

He took You Jin back to Ma's house to pick up the medicine. Then he groped around before took out half a pinky-sized ginseng from the top layer of the medicine cabinet, cut it in half, and handed it to You Jin. He instructed: "Put this in as well and boil the medicine together. Boil with five bowls of water into a bowl of concoction. Get your mother to down it. If she have the strength, she should be fine. But if she still can't use any strength, then this old man can't help."

You Jin gratefully took the medicine that Doctor Ma had chosen and hurried back to Yue's house. At this time, Yue Chang Lu, who went to invite Granny Wen, also came back. Granny Wen entered Wan Niang's room, while Yue Chang Lu closely guarded outside the door. They were just separated by a wall but he didn't even give Mrs. Su a look. As if the babies in Mrs. Su's belly had nothing to do with him.

You Jin's eyes darkened by a few degree. However, she didn't have time to worry about that much. She hurried to the kitchen to make the medicine and then sent it to Mrs. Su's room to be consumed. After that, she was kicked out by Mrs. Lin: "This isn't a place for children. Don't stay here. I'll call you if I need anything."

Once out of the west wing, You Jin felt a little empty in her heart. She didn't know what to do. Seeing her few younger sisters standing in a row outside the door of the west wing, You Jin hugged the two little ones into her arms and then stood with the rest. She silently prayed to Heaven to bless Mrs. Su and the babies.

Mrs. Su's side went quite fast, while Wan Niang was tortured on her side.

After checking Wan Niang's situation, Granny Wen came out and instructed Yue Chang Lu to get someone to prepare some food: "This is little wife's first child. It won't be born until midnight! Quickly prepare some food and send it here. Least that she become hungry and have no energy to birth in the evening."

Hearing that it'll take half a day, Yue Chang Lu frowningly acknowledged it. Afterward, he ordered You Jin to prepare food: "Go and prepare some food for your mother!"

To his surprise, You Jin sent him a vicious glare: "My mother didn't say she wanted to eat!"
Now that her whole heart was hanging in the air, how can she care whether Wan Niang is hungry or not?

This was the first time for Yue Chang Lu to be directly confronted by his daughter. Looking at her somewhat penetrating gaze, he can't help but feel a chill in his heart. But seeing that his eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law were standing at the door of the main room, Yue Chang Lu felt that he can't lose this face. He immediately wanted to teach her a lesson.

Unexpectedly, You Jin dodged his slap and coldly stared at him: "I won't bother you, so don't bother me either. Or I will go all out and not let you off!" Six kiddies stood behind You Jin and looked at him with hatred. As if they were going to fight with their life.

Only then did Yue Chang Lu realize that his position in the second room had been shaken. He was so furious that he pointed at You Jin and cursed: "You disrespectful money-wasting thing. You instigated your younger sisters to be disobedient, right?"

"What do you have worthy of my respect?" You Jin glanced at him coldly. Since the jar was already broken, why would You Jin continue to endure? She accepted the pole handed over by You Zhu and spoke her sisters standing firmly in front of Mrs. Su's door: "Kill us today then. Try it!"

Why else was Yue Chang Lu called a coward who bullies the soft and fears the hard? He was frightened a few steps back by daggered glares from a few money-wasters who had been beaten up by him since they were young. On that end, Yue Chang Fu took in his retreat and a hint of disgust appeared at the corner of his mouth. This younger brother was as unpromising as always. He couldn't even hold his position against a few money-wasting things!

However, looking at scarlet-eyed You Jin, who was like a she-wolf protecting her cubs, Yue Chang Fu's heart also flashed a coolness that he didn't even detect.

It was Yue Da Fu who came out of the main room and broke the deadlock: "Eldest's wife, you make some food and send it to Wan Niang."
Spectator Mrs. Chen didn't expect another job had fallen on her shoulder. But seeing Father-in-law's serious face, she reluctantly went.

Only then did Yue Da Fu turn his head and steadily glanced at You Jin's sisters: "Old Second, both of them are in labor now. Those who should be disciplined will be disciplined later."

However, Yue Da Fu was also pondering how second branch's few money-wasting things' gut grown! It was necessary to discipline. Now that they dared to hold a pole to face their father. Wouldn't they dare to hold a kitchen knife to him when they are older?

You Jin wasn't afraid of him though. At most, it'll be dead fish breaking the net. Her life for a dozen lives of Yue Family. It was worth it. Life-cherishing Yue family might be eager to drive them away then!

It went without saying Mrs. Su didn't know what was going on outside. After drinking Doctor Ma's soup with a small piece of wild ginseng, she gained some strength. Seeing this, Mrs. Lin felt relieved: "If you have strength, just follow my breathing pace.”
Mrs. Su had given birth to seven girls. Naturally, it will be much faster. Now the cervix was ​​fully opened. As long as Mrs. Su push with strength when needed, the birth can be completed in less than half an hour.

Sweat was all over her slightly red face. Mrs. Su resisted the pain and responded with an 'e'. Then listened to Mrs. Lin's words and took a long breath and exhaled. The tearing pain spread to all limbs. Mrs. Su had to grit her teeth to hold back.

"I've seen the child's head! Come, listen. Exhale and push!" Mrs. Lin shouted in delight, "Quick! Push!"

"Waa!" The baby's weak cry came out. Outside, You Jin sisters immediately clenched their hands with joy: "Mother has given birth!"

You Jin took the boiled water into the delivery room to Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin was nimble and swift. She cut the umbilical cord with scissors that had been scalded with boiling water. Then she washed the baby and wrapped it in a cloth before carefully putting the baby in her arms and showed You Jin: "It's a little sister! There's another one in your mother's belly. It should be soon. Go and prepare some clean hot water."

You Jin glanced at the little sister whose head was only the size of an adult woman's fist. Her eyes were slightly red: "Thank you, Granny Ma!"
Then she went out with a basin of blood.

You Yin and the few younger sisters hurriedly gathered around: "Third Elder Sister, did Mother give birth to a little brother or a little sister?"

Taking the expectant eyes of her few younger sisters, You Jin poured out the blood and replied, "It's a younger sister. There is another one in Mother's belly."
Hearing You Jin say that it was a younger sister, the older ones' eyes displayed slight disappointment. The initial expectation was gone.

You Jin noticed her few younger sisters become disappointed and her face became strict. Although they didn't value sons over daughters, her younger sisters who were born and raised here can't have the mentality of hoping for a younger brother in their bones. She squatted down and gazed at them with burning eyes: "Third Elder Sister has always told you that if we even despise ourselves for not being a male, then no one in this world can respect us. Although it's said women aren't as good as men, but Mother gave birth is a younger sister. I never dislike you for not being a male. Now you are starting to dislike your younger sister?"

The sisters were a little frightened by You Jin's serious expression and fervently shook their heads one after another: "No. Third sister, we are just..."

"I know. You just want a younger brother too much. If Mother gave birth to a younger brother, wouldn't you spoil him? Do you know that kind Mother ruin son since ancient times? If he becomes a unpromising family member, then I'd rather a well-behaved younger sister." You Jin patted You Jin and You Zhu on the shoulders: "You two are the oldest among these younger sisters. So you can't teach them bad ways."

You Zhu hurriedly shook her head and stood very firmly on You Jin's side: "Third Elder Sister, I won't."

You Yin also nodded: "Third Elder sister, I understand."

Only then did You Jin nodded with satisfaction. She brought another pot of hot water into the west wing. That end, old Mrs. Chen knew that Mrs. Su had given birth to another daughter. So she stood at the door of the main room and faced the west wing. Her thin lips curled into 'as expected' smile: "I had said that old hen that can't lay a good eye can't give birth to a son! And you didn't it! Now you believe it?"

Yue Chang Lu, who was standing beside old Mrs. Chen, also had a little ugly expression. Although he was tired of seeing Mrs. Su's sallow face, it was still his own seed. There was a hint of expectation for a son in his heart. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be another empty hope.
