Chapter 4 The Child Is Called Xueer
Miao Yinshu didn't know if what she saw was the child's hair, because the blood that stained the mattress made her eyes dark. If she hadn't supported herself with mental strength, she might have fainted already.

"Nurse, please work hard, nurse! You and the child will be fine! Trust me, nurse, and the delivery will be smooth! Come on, come on..."

Miao Yinshu didn't know what she was talking about, or whether the nanny could understand what it meant to cheer up, but she could only keep talking to keep herself from fainting.Because she knew that if she couldn't hold on and fainted, then the nanny would be absolutely in danger.

From the corner of his eyes, the thin child was trying his best to support his crumbling body, but he was talking to himself over and over again. The nanny who was about to give up suddenly had the strength to live.He stopped crying weakly, took a deep breath, held it tightly, then widened his eyes and concentrated all his strength on the lower body, exerting all his strength...

"what--"

"what--"

Two yells could almost lift the thatch off the roof, one was the nurse who was relieved after exhausting her last effort, and the other was Miao Yinshu who saw the child.

"Nurse, nurse, the baby is coming out! The baby is coming out!" Miao Yinshu couldn't tell what kind of throbbing felt in her heart. For the arrival of a little life, Miao Yinshu, who couldn't describe it in words, was jumping and running in the room to express your joy.

"Umbilical cord, umbilical cord..." The nanny, who was already weak and speechless, only uttered these three words, and then fell into a coma.

"That's right! To cut the umbilical cord, you need to take a bath, hot water, stop the bleeding, and cry...ahhh..." Miao Yinshu, who was in a mess, hurriedly found the scissors, cut off the umbilical cord with trembling hands, and imitated TV again. He held the child's feet, and then patted the baby's back lightly, choking a ball of black blood from the child's mouth, and then the little thing whimpered like a kitten and began to cry.

The child was probably severely malnourished in the mother's womb, and he was almost suffocated to death in his mother's stomach, so he looked very weak and his crying was pitiful.

Finding a piece of ragged cotton cloth, he wrapped the child, which had already turned purple from the cold, and placed it next to the nanny who was still sleeping drowsily even though it was in great pain. Miao Yinshu checked the situation of the nanny again. The normal bleeding due to childbirth was not the unlucky dystocia hemorrhage she had imagined, so she finally settled down.

Then, the little body started to get busy.

Fetched water to help the nanny wipe her body, cleaned up the baby, and boiled notoginseng into a soup, and gave it to the nanny when she was awake.I also found that the kang was completely cold, and started to burn the kang again. When I stopped busy and looked out of the window, I found that there were large snowflakes in the sky at some point.

Miao Yinshu, who lived in the southern region since she was a child, rarely saw such a large and beautiful snowflake, smiled lightly, then looked at the mother and daughter who were both tired and asleep on the kang, and murmured : "Tell the nanny later that the child should be called Xue'er!"
